AT a MEETING of the TRADE and others interested in the fi , rmation of the LIVERPOOL JoucT STOCK TIMBER COMPANY, held at the BUSH INNiat Manchester, 26th February, 1836, It was unanimously Resolved, That the Prospectus, dated 22d Febrn , submitted by the Deputation from the Liverpool Commit e be approved, and that the Company be called the Liver of and Manchester Joint Stock Timber Company. That it appears from Returns made that the increase of the importation of Timber into the Port of Liverpool in the Year ending Ist February ult., as compared with the year ending February Ist, 1832, is as 15,016,8-16 to 7,316,452:0r thereabouts.

That immediate steps be taken to secure sites whereon to erect Saw-mills at both Manchester and Liverpool. Nine Gentlemen were then added to the Provisional Com mittee, and after some further preliminary business the Meeting adjourned to Friday, the 4th March. (Signed) H. B. WALKER, Chairman.

By N. is Majesty's Royal Authori;? PROFESSOR SW EDOUR'S HYGEA PILLS. FOR the effectual extirpation of every sp es and symp;orn of the Syphilitic Disease,aud the many orders arising from improper treatment. • Prepared and sold by the sole Pro • or at No. 54, Seel street, Liverpool. (four doors from ter-street) in boxes at 2s. 9d. and 4s. 6d. each. {With each box is given directions how to take these Pills, and observations on points, beneficial to the patient. being hints worth knowing, by those who are, o r h ave b een su ff er ers from this dreadful and devastating malady. "VenientiocOrite morbo." "Oppose the disease in its infancy." "These, 0 sinful pleasures, these are thy troph;tes--'tis thus co-operating with the foe of God and man, thou degradest hu- Man nature, and blasteth - the opening prospects of httmart-A. licity."—BLAta. So said Professor Swedour, when he discovered his grand PANACEA for this Complaint, The "Hygean Pills." (then un known to the annals of medical discoveries,)as a specific reme dy to exterminate from. the System, that intruder on the plea sures frequently imbibed in moments of inebriation, or thought lessness : never did a discovery excite a greater sensation, it was sought after with avidity, and used with undeviating success in the most miuute and intricate cases of the delicate complaint, for the cure of which, they have been so long cele brated. 'l'he fame of these Pills throughout Germany, caused their speed introduction into almost every country, and ad dresses were presented to the talented Professor Swedour who filled the chair at Leyden University, congratulatory of the cir cumstance. 'l'he certainty with which they were continually administered, can be attested by many thousands, in fact during the long continental war they were the inseparable companion and safeguard of the soldier, in all cases where the slightest suspicion of infection was entertained. What Medicine can be more appropriate than that which has given such general satis faction. The Hygean Pills root out every particle of the insid uous poison,-purifying in their progress the wholemass of fluids, they not only remove the disease, but renovate by their action the different functions of the body—expelling the grosser hu mours and in a manner so mild and imperceptible as to con vince the most sceptical of their astonishing and unequalled powers, they neither contain mercury or any other mineral, and may be taken without the slightest suspicion of discovery— they require no restraint of diet, loss of time, or hindrance of business. The Hygean Pills maybe depended upon as a cer tain cure by persons of either sex, in all stages of a certain dis ease, and that without producing the least inconvenience. At any period when the slightest suspicion may exist, it will be well to have recourse to the Hygean Pills, for when taken be fore the disease has made its appearance it acts as a certain preventive, removing the complaint effectually and secretly. [be deplorable state in which many persons h;tve been when visiting the proprietor from the use of mercury, renders it im peratively necessary to caution the public against that danger ous mineral when injudiciously administered. These I'ills should form a portion of all Medicine Chests by sea and land, and ought never to, be omitted by any person going a long voyage or journey : their properties are such, that neither heat nor cold will injure their quality, or prevent their due effects on the constitution. Dr. Davieson will attend daily at his residence, No. 54, Seel street, Liverpool, from Eight in the morning until Ten at night, (on Sundays from Nine till Two,) where he gives advice to all applicant s taking any oh his preparations, 'WITHOUT A FEE.

PROSPECTUS OF A JOINT STOCK BANKING COMPAN , TO BE CALLED THE SOUTH LANCASHIRE BANKIN O,I9PANY. Capital £500,000, in 50,000 Shares o £lO each. THE system of Joint Stock Banking s now so generally known, that it is needless to enter i o any detail of it, in the short space of a Prospectus. The Joint Stock Banks hitherto e blished in Manchester, have either confined themselves exclusively, or nearly so, to the business of the town, or have extended themselves in the shape of District Banks over this and the adjoining counties. When it is considered that Manchester is surrounded by towns possessing, individually, immense populations, actively enraged in trade and manufactures, each in great degree dependent " on the other for support, it is at on ciobvious that a very large field for the successful operations of .Toint Stock Banking still remains. The town of Manchester contains a population of upwards of 250,000; Bolton, 45,209 ;',Oldham, 32,381 • Roch dale, 20,110; Ashton-under-Lyne, 15,222 ; and Bury, 15,086; in the whole, near half a million, and all following the same pursuits; yet it appears most strange that no Joint Stock Bank has hitherto been established for the purpose of combining ex clusively the energies of these towns, comprising as they do the great manufacturing district of South Lancashire :—as thus might be obtained the Security of a , Bank, whose operations are confined to a single town, with the benefits and advantages of the district plan, without adopting the exclusiveness of the one., or the two extensive ramifications of the other. That there is ample space for another Joint. Stock Bank in this vast and rapidly increasing district is very clear, when it is considered that at the present moment there are in successful ope-ation in Edinburgh alone, (with a population barely one third so large as that intended for the sphere of this Bank,) fourteen Joint Stock Banks; whereas, in this part of South ' ~ Lancashire, there are as yet only four Joint Stock Banks in actual existence; two of which were only established three years ago, and those within two months of each other, yet the dividends of both have exceeded the most sanguine expecta tions, and the shares now bear a high premium. It is intended to establish a Joint Stuck Bank for this Dis trict alone, to comprise Bolton, Oldham, Rochdale, Ashton under-Lyne, and Bury, with a Local Directory, and an appyo priation of shares according to the amount of their respective populations, the Imsiness of which will be conducted in that liberal yet safe manner, as to afford the greatest facilties to the inhabitants of each town, giving to them the same advantages, with greater security than they could possess by small Banks established in each. It is , therefore propased— That a company be formed under the foregoing title. That the Head Bank be at Manchester, that Branch Banks be established as early as practicable, in Bolton, Oldham, Rochdale, Ashton-under-Lyne, and Bury - and agencies in such other towns as may be desirable, and that the business be that of a deposit, loan, agency, discount, and circulation Bank. That - the capital of the Company be I:500,000,-in- 50• ME ), shares of 1:10 each. That each person on being admitted a Shareholder pay One Shilling per Share towards defraying the Expenses incidental to the formation of the Company, a sum of £2. 10s. per Share within one month frouLthe appointment of Directors, and the further sum of £2. 10s. per Share within three months after that time, and the remaining f. 5 in such manner and at such time as the Directors nay appoint; three mouths notice of any such Call to be in every case given. That all the concerns of the Company be under the manage ment of the general Board of Directors, but that subject to its control the business of its branches be managed by a Board of Local Directors. That the Company be considered as formed when the Shares taken amount to 10,000; that a Meeting a Shareholders be then called, and be held in Manchester, at which the general Board of Directors, to consist of such number as shall be then agreed upon, shall be elected, to continue in office one year. That the Shareholders at each Branch annually appoint their own Board of Local Directors; and that the number of Direc tors at each Board be not less than three nor .more than seven. That at the first, and all other Meetings of Shareholders, each Shareholder may vote for himself, or by another Shareholder holding his written proxy, and that the Votes be regulated thus: —lO Shares, one vote; - 30 Shares, two totes; 70 Shares, three votes; 100 Shares and upwards, four votes. That any Shareholder, holding 50 shares or upwards, be eli gible to be elected a General Director, and 30 shares, a Local Director. That, should one-fourth of the paid-up capital be at any time lost, the Company be thereupon dissolved, unless at a general meeting of Shareholders, to be convened for that purpose, it be otherwise determined. That so soon as practicable after the appointment of the Ge neral Board of Directors, a Deed of Settlement be prepared, to contain all necessary and proper provisions for the efficient management of the Company, and Security of the Share holders. That the names of the Shareholders be not disclosed, until a return be filed in the mode required by law. That the above conditions be subject to revision tly the Share holders. Applications for Shares to be addressed to the " PROVIstoNAL COMMITTEE," and left with Mr. DAVID HOLT, Share Broker, Ducie.place, Exchange, Manchester, from whom printed Forms of Applications may be had; or from Mr. THOMAS HOLDEN, Solicitor, Acres-field, Bolton; Messrs. WHITEHEAD and BAR LOW, Solicitors,- Oldham Mr. JOHN H.ARDMAN, Solicitor, Rochdale; Mr. ALFRED HEGGINBOTTOM, Solicitor, Ashton under-Lyne; and Messrs. GRL'NDY, Solicitors, Bury and Hey wood.

CAPITAL, Two MILLIONS, Ia Two Thousand Shares, of One Thousand Poupd: ONE MILLION TO BR PAID UP. AT a period when the principles of Join tock Banks are so well and accurately defined, and e advantages of the system have been so admirably demo rated, it would be su perfluous to enlarge upon their intri c excellencies. Merely to mention that a having a great number of Partners should be more secure than a Bank of only a few Partners, seems a very obvious proposition; and has received abundant confirmation from the numerous failures under the private, and the stability of the public system of Banking. This is a tact which demonstrates the superiority of the Joint Stock Bank. The experience of the last eight years has sufficiently established its claims to the entire confidence of the Public, from its un questionable security, and the extended benefits thereby afford ed to every branch of trade and industry. Unlike Private Banks, which may be diminished in number and wealth by a variety of circumstances, the Joint ,Stock Bank by its exten sive, and in this instance, wealthy Proprietaty, satisfies the public of its merited confidence and security. ~• Nottvithstanding the unfailing success of Joint Stock Banks 4 h Wli individual Proprietors, and convenience to the Public MI to, it may be apprehensive that the scheme upon which son ' ave been instituted, will he found to have an object be yon he establishment of a sound and healthy Banking con cern. Banks to some extent have already been established upon a basis embOdying a great number of Shares, at a small scale of value, and experience has lately proved the facilities thereby extended to change the legitimate objects of a Joint Stock Proprietor to those of a mere speculator. It would necessarily follow from the continuous change of a Proprietary, with its natural consequences, the wonted respecta bility and confidence of the Bank is greatly impaired, and its true interest and successful issue wholly forgotten. Time, how ever, is the only arbiter between Banks supported by a change able Proprietary, and the one now respectfully submitted to the Public. !s each. Satisfied that public confidence and security is of the very first importance to a Bank, the Proprietor here will co-operate, with a view to insure that desideratum in the science of Banking, and endeavour to avoid as much as possible the trafficking in Shares. Under this impression, the promoters of the Bank pre sume that the large amount of each Share will, in a great mea sure, tend to check that objectionable practice. :Elie Share holder in this Bank will be a person of Capital and standing in Business or Society, and will not deem it his interest to transfer Shares, for the sake of a trifling premium, like the small Capi talist who can have comparatively little interest at stake. In the capacity of Propietor he places his money as a sure and per manent investment, with every probability of being a profitEthle one. Instead of receiving the usual Government Security Di vidends, or mortgage interest, a handsome Bank Dividend 'is paid, with the certainty and punctuality of the former, and with much less trouble and expense. In illustration of the successful investments, references are very abundant, both in the English and Scotch Banks. The latter, indeed, from the longer experience of the system, afford truly gratifying proofs of success and profit to the Proprietor, as well as the advantages and superiority which a Bank of large Capital possesses over the one of more limited means. To in stance, the British Linen Company, which originally cost £2OO per Share, now sells at £4BO. The Commercial Bank of Scot land, commencing under very unfavourable auspices, pays £l4 per cent., being a premium of £7O per cent. The National Bank of Scotland pays £42 per cent.; and which is almost in credible, the Aberdeen Bank, which originally cost £l5O per Share, bas risen to the enormous sum of £2500. There are a variety of other Banking Establishments in Scotland which might be referred to as being very successful ; and the same prosperous career, subject to the limited extent of Capital, has attended all the Joint Stock Banks instituted, in this Country, under the provisions of the late Act of Parliament, most of them yieldin.. from £ 7 to £l2 percent. and upwards upon the paid-up Capital.' The present Bank will have many advantages over Banks of a more limited Capital. From the paid-up amount, the Public can rely upon it being a safe Bank of deposit, and from the same source it will become a Bank of considerable discount. Under these views, it has been concluded that this Bank be (with permission) called the "ROYAL BANK or LivEnrooL," with the subscribed Capital of Two Millions, in Shares of Ono Thousand each. That the number of Shares be Two Thousand, with power to add to the number. That the paid-up Capital be One Million. That each admitted Shareholder pay nu allotment • £lO per cent. after the Shares are registered; apd the remainder at the discretion of the Directors; no call to be made without three months' notice. That the Bank be formed when 500 Shares are subscribed for, and a Meeting be then convenqd for the election of a General Board of Directors, &c. _ _ That the Shareholders be paid no more than £3 per cent. per annum out of the profits, the remainder to accumulate as a sur plus fund until it amounts to f.:100,0000, after which, the whole profits to be annually divided, by a half-yearly dividend. That should one-fourth of the paid-up Capita!, and the whole surplus fund be lost, the majority in value of the Shareholders decide whether the Bank should be dissolved. That uo transfer of Shares be permitted until after the pay ment of the first dividend, and that the transferee of Shares, in all cases, be subject to the approval of the Directors. That a Deed of Settlement be prepared, embracing all need ful provisions for constituting the Bank, and for its efficient management. That the qualification of a Director be —a, holder of Five Shares or upwards. That the Directors have power to make bye-laws. That at the first meeting of the Proprietors, each person shall have a vote for every Share he may hold, either in person or by proxy. Sealed applications for shares to be addressed to the " Provi sional Committee of the Royal Bank of Liverpool, No. 10, Ex change-alley, Liverpool," on or before the HA of March next.

OXFORD CONVOCATION. (From the Standard,) We have this day the howour to present to our readers and tcrthe Chula, of England the most important documents con nected with the interests of christianity which have appeared in modern times. To the members of convocation in the Univer sity of Oxford who have so nobly stood forward on the present occasion a large debt of gratitude is due by every Englishman, whether lay or clerical. They have evinced at once their reso lution to defend the cause of christianity from an inundation of scepticism and unitarianism, and to maintain the inalienable rights of conscience against the insolence of arbitrary power. The documents to which we allude, and which will be perused ttat further the profes sors, glowing feelings of gr a t i tude , . are the res o l u ti ons a d o pt e d unanimously, as we arc informed , in very crowded • meetings of members eto o ls f ana convocation, of and th e e xt . e u n u s i i v v e e r l s y it s y i .g signer) pretace.these resolutions stand as follows At a meeting of m embers of convocation, holden this day, it was unanimously resolved— " That a respectful, requisition be signed, and presented to the Rev. the Vice-Chancellor, praying that he will be pleased to convene a meeting of the heads of colleges and halls fur the purpose of considering the propriety of submitting to convoca tion an address from. the flniversity. of Oxford to the most reverend the archbishops and the right reverend the bishops of the united church.to the following effect:— " That their lordships would be pleased to accept from can didates for holy orders a certificate of attendance at the lectures of the Lady Margaret's Professor of Divinity in the Univet say of Oxford. in lieu of the certificate of attendance at the lectures of the Regius Professor of Divinity in the same university, so long as the chair of the Regius Professor of Divinity continues to he filled by one, iii the soundness of whose doctrinal opinions the university can place no confidence,' " Oxford, Feb. 24, 18.36." " At a meeting of Members of Convocation, holden this day, it was resolved unanimously, "'That a respectful requisition be signed and presented to the Rev. the Vice-Chancellor, that he would be pleased to sum mon &meeting, of the heads of houses, to take into consideration the best means of giving convocation an opportunity of dis avowing and condemning the evil principles and doctrines con tained in the l3ampton lectures and other writings of Dr. Hampden. ".oxford, 'Feb. 25, 18313." GRAND ORANGE LODGE. (From the Dublin Packet of Saturday.) At a very full meeting of the Committee of the Grand Orange Lodge of Ireland held this day, J. Greer, Esq., Grand. aster of Tyrone, in the Chair—the following .address and resolutions were adopted : " TO THE ORANGEMEN OF IRELAND. " Brethren—. The Committee of the Grand Lodge feel they should betray the 'confidence' reposed in them by the Grand Lodge of Ireland, if they did not protest against the conduct imputed to some of our hitherto most confided in members, who are alleged in the public newspapers to have pledged themselves to withdraw from the Orange Institution, and even to exert their influence for its supPression, in the event of the King ex pressing his disinclination for its continuance. " The grounds of this protest are contained in the last report of the Grand Lodge of Ireland, by which all our brethren, who would continue in the Institution, are bound until its authority shall have been abrogated by the Grand Lodge of Ireland, or bestla c by a legal enactment. And we would entre-Lt the attention of the biethren at large to the following extract from that re port , which certainly cannot harmonize with the op i n ions of an y endeavoursa mongstu s for our a rity to desert us :" y n d g , e o d r t s h h e e m w s n e a v e discreditable t o use their a "'lnthe first - place; to depart from our original cOnititatiOn',. Yd e h s a t v ru e c i tt and to adopt another name, would carry with it, especially at the present time, an appearance of conscious guilt, which would afford no little countenance to the accusations of our enemies. We never can advise the brethren tp adopt any course of con duct which might give colour to the remotest implication, that there was any part , of their previous conduct o f w hi c h t h ey h ave to be ashamed."' "Acting Acting on this advice, the Grand Committee most decidedly protest against any voluntary abandonment of the principles of our legal and constitutional order. 6 .l'las - committee would also entreat the attention of those brethren who are said to have thus pledged themselves to ano ther extract from the same report—a report, they will recollect, unanimously assented to, and signed by one of their number : " We do think that the alarm of our ever anxious friends is misplaced, and that in joining in the outcry that has been raised against us, they are unconsciously falling in with the designs of the worst enemies of the constitution." "After a warning so clear and forcible, it is difficult to ac count for the line of conduct they are alleged to have adopted. " The Grand CoMmittee feel here called upon to warn the brethren at large against the novel doctrine that the mere wish of the sovereign, expressed through his ministers, in answer to an address from the House of Commons, has the force of LA w, or can restrain the subject in the legal exercise of constitutional rights. The Orangemen of Ireland have the most sincere respect for the will of the sovereign; but the liberty of the sub jecf they respect still more; and they are not ashamed to con fess that they will persevere in the exercise of those rights, of which, while the British constitution remains unsubverted, they cannot be deprived, save by .the co-operation of the three branches of the legislature. 'I he Orange institution has ever been distinguished by obedience to the law, and we fearlessly promise on behalf of our brethren that support of and submis , son to the laws of our country shall ever characterise the mem bers of the Orange Institution. - "The Grand Committee cannot omit this opportunity of once more indignantly repudiating the atrocious and unfounded accusation against their loyalty, alleged in the public news papers to have been laid to their charge by Mr. Hume in his place in the House of Commons, the only foundation for which most absurd imputation has its existence in the bombastic cor respondence of an absurd functionary of the English Grand Lodge. "The Committee, in conclusion, earnestly intreat their bre thren in the country to observe the strictest respect for the law and the commands of the civil authorities ? and to prove, by Their strict preservation of the peace, under their new trial, that their love of order remains unshaken. "JOSEPH GREENE, Chairman, I A I M. SWAN, Secretary." Emperiat Vartiamcnt. HOUSE OF LORDS.—Tif ußsnAre. The Forest of Dean Bill, the Surplus Fund Bill, and the Fifteen Millions Exchequer Bills, were brought up from the commons and read a first time, ORANGE LODGES. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY gave notice that on Thurs day next he would submit a motion to their, slordships for a message to be sent to the commons, requesting a copy of the report of the select committee of the house, inquiring into Orange Lodge societies. The lords were then ordered to be summoned on Thursday. The Bishop of EXETER presented petitions from Peterborough and other places against the probate clause of the Ecclesiastical Court bill. Referred to a select committee.—Adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—THURSDAY. ABERDEEN PUBLIC SCHOOLS BILL. This bill, on the motion of Mr. BANNERMAN, was read a second time. In answer to a question from Lord Ashley, as to whether it was the intention of government in any new appointment to the see of Durham to separate the episcopal duties from those of custos rotolorum of the county of Durham, Lord JOHN RUSSELL stated that that subject was under the consideration of government. ORANGE LODGES.—ADDRESS TO THE CROWN. Lord JOHN RUSSELL appeared at the bar and stated that he had presented to his majesty the address of the House on the subject of Orange lodges, and that his majesty had been pleased to return the following most gracious answer:— " I willingly accede to the prayer of my faithful commons, that will be pleased,to take such measures as may seem to me to be advisable for the effectual diseouragemeni of Orange lodges, and getferally of all political societie§, excluding all persons of a different religious faith, using secret signs and symbols, and acting by means of associated branches. " It is my firm determination to discourage all such societies in my dominions, and I rely with confidence on the fidelity of my loyal subjects to support me in this determination." The answer was brought up and laid on the-table. DUTY ON PAPER. Lord FRANCIS EGERTON presented a petition, signed by up wards of seventy gentlemen, manufacturers of paper, some of whom were his own constituents, who paid more than half of the whole duty which went into the Exchequer.—Laid on the table. MR. JUSTICE lII,ACKBUTINE. Mr. ROEBUCK gave notice of his intention to trove, on the 15th of March, the impeachment of Edward Baring Blackburne, Chief Justice of the Mauritius, for certain high ,crimes and mis demeanours. He also gave notice for the same day of an ad dress to his majesty, praying that the Commissioner of Grown Lands in Canada should be dismissed Irma adl es ploymeßt in his Majesty's service. TIMBER DUTIES. In answer to a question from Mr. Young, Mr. P. Ttio,msoN stated that it was not the intenttion of government to introduce any measure on the subject of the timber duties at present. No bill affecting those duties could come into operation, under the suggestion of the committee, until 1837; but a bill would De introduced for that purpose in the course of the session. PUBLIC WORKS.-IRELAND. The CHANCELLOR - of the EXCHEQUER brought in a bill on the subject of public works in Ireland. BRIBERY AT ELECTIONS. Mr. HARDY rose to move for leave to brinc , in a bill to amend and consolidate the several acts relative to bribery in the elec tion of members of parliament. He felt that he ought to enter tain sanguine prospects of success in bringing forward a bill rendered so necessary, as it appeared by the results of recent investigations upon this subject, notwithstanding the final enactments of the reform bill upon this head. He was further encouraged and fortified by the disclosures made in the report of the committee upon bribery in the year 1531:, and also by the decision come t o by th e b r ib ery an d corruption committee of last year. Leave was given to bring in the bill. MILITARY FLOGGING. Mr. LENNARD moved for a return of the nuthber of soldiers who have suffered either corporal punishment or imprisonment, and whether corporal punishment has been inflicted on the same person more than once, specifying how often it has been so in flicted. A similar return of punishments inflicted on marines was also moved for. The returns were ordered. CONTROVERTED ELECTIONS. Mr. CHARLES BULLET. moved for the appointment of a select committee on the law respecting controverted elections. The motion was agreed to and a committee was appointed. Adjourned. . - HOUSE OF LORDS.—FRIDAY. The Dean For'est hill, and the fifteen million exchequer bills ; were severally read a second time. ORANGE ASSOCIATIONS. The Earl Of WINCHILSEA, after adverting to the address of the other house of parliament to his Majesty, the answer which had been returned respecting orange associations, deprecated these proceedings as directed against an institution which he believed to be essential to the maintenance of protestantism in Ireland. He (Lord W.) had become a member of the society from a thorough conviction of the dangers to which the church was exposed in that Country. He disapproved of secret oaths and signs, but, sincerely assured of the purity of his motives, nothing should induce him, though his title and life were placed in jeopardy to shrink from the maintenance of his principles. He called upon the government to state fairly whether the re solution was intended to apply to all societies bound by secret oaths and signs? The Duke of cUMEERLAND said, although he was as con vinced as ever of tike purity of the principles of orange soci eties; he was not desirous of pursuing or countenancing any proceedings that might have the appearance of resisting go vernment. In consequence of the resolutions adopted by the other house of parliament, be bad, in conjunction with several noble friends, advised the immediate dissolution of all orange societies. in Great Britain, Ireland, and the colonies. Viscount MwsocaNE.expressett the great satisfaction he felt on hearing elle:communication of the illustrious Duke, whose example woug he hoped, be followed by all those who were connected with orange lodges. With respect to.the noble Earls queiition, the terms of the resolution were a guarantee that the principle would be applied to all secret societies. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY condemned the partiality of the ministers' proceedings, and contended that all their act s , even the,appointment of the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, were in obedience to the dictates of Mr. O'Connell; that all their proceedings were of a character to advance Roman Catholics at the expense of protestants, and that all good protestants, and the sound and loyal part of the community were disgusted at the entertainment given to O'Connell by the King's representative in Ireland, at a tune when the two countries were ringing with that person's contumelious revilings of the royal authority, and of their lordships' house. At the close of the conversation the house adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—FRIDAY. Mr. Ball, a aentleulau of the Irish bar, took his seat for the borough of Clonmel. ORANGE SOCIETIES. ' • Lord Joutv Russnu, read a letter which be had received from the Duke of Cumberland that morning, of which the subjoined is a copy : St. James's Palace, Feb. 26, 1836. My Lord,—l have received your Lordship's letter, with the enclosed printed copies of the resolutions of the House of Com mons, containing an address on the subject of orange lodges and other similar societies, together with his Majesty's most gra cious answer. Before I had received your lordship's commu nication I had already taken steps, in conjunction with several official and distinguished members of the loyal orange institu tion in Ireland, to recommend its immediate dissolution, in con formity with the loyal principles of that institution. I have only to add that I shall take immediate steps to dissolve the loyal orange institution in Great Britain. I have the honour to be, &c. &c. The Right Hon. Lord John Russell. ERNEST. TIMBER DUTIES. Mr. Alderman THOMPSON after some explanatory observa tions asked Mr. P. Thomson, when he would be ready to bring the intended measure on the subject of timber duties forward, and what time would be allowed for the consideration of the schedules, between their being printed and their discussion in that house? THOMiON replied that due notice would be given o its introduction and the fullest opportunity allowed for its con. sideration. INTERFERENCE WITH SPAIN. On the motion of kord John Russell for going into a com mittee of supply, 7 Mr. MACLEAN brought forward his motion for a paper re specting the permission given by the government to bnglish subjects to mingle in the contests carrying on between the rival parties contending for the throne of Spain. This led to one of the most interesting debates that has taken place this session, which we find too l ong f or our space, we are therefore .obliged to- confine our extracts to the speech .crf Sir JOHN ELLEY. This gallant officer said that General Evans on his arrival at Bilboa, found good lodgings, good pro visions, and ample opportunities of bringing his men into a state of discipline. These advantages he had not improved, and the consequence was, he had been obliged to resort to a mode of punishment which they must all reprobate and more especially his gallant friend General Evans. (A la_ r ,uoh.) To each battali on was a p po i n t e d a provost-marshal. He had a drummer, a serjeant, a corporal, and six file of men. - The duty of this provolt-marshal was the exercise of absolute power (hear, hear), and if'he found any man who, in his opinion, was acting out of. the strict lin e of discipline, without further ceremony he was to tie him up and give him a couple, of ''dozen. (Loud faughterT 'This ptiiiiifimenfindlfiese powers were absolutely necessary, for the troops were not to be brought under subjection by any other means. After remain ing some time at Bilboa, where, o n the arrival of General Evans's battalion, there were stationed fifteen thousand Spaniards under the command of Espartero, the latter gave up the garri son to General Evans, and the Spanish troops under Espariero marched on towards Vittoria. Now, the house, or at least the military members of it, would suppose that in an affair of such a nature as this march, under the circumstances attending it, and the situation of the country, that all the precautions of war would have been taken. These precautions were, however, in fact, wholly omitted, and the consequence had been, that be fore Espartero and his column had proceeded seven miles from Bilboa into the mountains occupied by the Carlists, they were resisted with such force and spirit that they. were compel led to retreat towards Bilboa, and to call upon General Evans and his small force to aid and protect the fifteen thousand Spaniards under Espartero who had gone forth. (Hear, hear.) -In short, they' came back with the Carlists at their heels into Bil boa, into which town the Carlists remained firing for upwards of an hour and a half. ( Hear, hear.) Before the march com mencing, it was worthy of remark that Espartero had sent two battalions of his force in flank on parallel roads with the line' of march, and it would be naturally supposed that after being discomfitted in the manner lie Elley) had described, Es partero would have sent to those two flank battalions orders to reheat, but instead of doing so the unfortunate battalions re ceived no orders, and were consequently cut off from retreat by the Carlists, and were left only to choose between two evils —first, to contend with the superior force of' their opponents, the Carlists; or to swim the Durango, a river of consider-. able width and of great swiftness of current, as was well known to all persons acquainted with the Spat:ish territory. The battalions thus cut off from retreat chose the latter al ternative, namely, that of swimming the Durango, and no less than one thousand four hundred persons perished in the attempt. Shortly afterwards the 15,000 Spanish troops left the garrison of Billioa in the sole possession of General Evans. No length ened period elapseWhowever, before that gallant officer and the troops under his command were ordered to advance front Bil boa towards Vittoria. Now, did the gallant general take the nearest line of route, namely, by Durango? No. he did not; and why? Because he knew the Carlists occupied the passes on that route, and therefore it was that he took another road— that by Portugalette. Even there the Carlists met him. Did he bring them to action ? No; he knew better—(laughter)---- a general action was not his object. (Cheers.) He, however, struggled to proceed towards Vittoria, because such were his orders ; and he mentioned this to disabuse the public mind with reference to these matters. In a word, General Evans did net attack or attempt to force anyplace he, found Occupied by the NI 60.1 C Il 1. Sf 6 opposing party, because he had received positive orders nut to do so. He found himself beset on all sides, and then came the question to his mind, how was he to rescue himself and those under his command in a situation of so much difficulty ? He retrograded his force, and returned into a mountain-pass, which took him over a very extensive range of country, a country of a most difficult nature and character, ilea here it was that the fatigue of the British legion first took place. What was the object, he must stop to inquire, of the British legion crossiug this dreadful line of country—for such it was well known to be by those who were acquainted with its description and charac ter? Why, he could state that the object was to gain a parti cular road from the coast towards Durango which opened to Vittoria. The British legion, under the command of General Evans, came out with three days' provisions, and they were so improvident as to consume those three days' provisions in one day. (Loud laughter.) The consequence, as might be na turally supposed, was, that on the second day hunger made ra pid strides, especially in a country unprovided with every ne cessary of life. The third day the result was still worse; but General Evan's, like a good soldier, and in conformity with the character he had earned for himself, gained with his troops the road he (Sir J. Elley) had already described, and by a forced march of 35 miles preceded the course of the force designed to have also intercepted that passage. General Evans, however, succeeded, and he entered Briviesca—a strong place, and fully • equal to the reception of the troops under his command, and where, from fatigue, it was absolutely necessary for them to halt. So great had been the fatigue and hardships the men had expe-e rienced, that many threw away their knapsacks on the march. The anxiety of mind,, added to personal fatigue, on the part of General Evans, was such as to confine him to his bed for six, sr seven days. ( Hear, hear.) 'When the legion was, however, again prepared to move, they succeeded in gaining the high road to Miranda del Ebro. On crossing the Ebro, the Carlists occupied one of the banks of the river near the bridge by which the passage was to be effected; General Cordova came up with the Spaniards, and covered the movement of General Evans's troops. Eventually, however, General Evans arrived at Vit toria, and there he (Sir John Elley) understood he and his troops were well accommodated, but unhappily the march from; Bilboa, to which he had adverted, had then laid the foundation of succeeding and consequent sickness among the troops, and, however reports which had gone forth might be supposed to be exa g gerated as to the state o f G enera l Evans ' s corps, yet be (Sir John Eiley) much feared that the hospitals were now much more crowded than the ranks. (Hear, hear.) He lamented to state this, because his ambition was that British troops—he cared not under whose command, he cared not for what object they might serve—(a laugh)—should always succeed in any impor tant undertaking that might call for their best exertions. He confidently believed that British troops would never leave this country without realising the fond wishes of their fellow coun trymen. (Hear, hear.) Sir John then, in a digression from his subject, animadverted with great severity upon some obser vations of Mr. Roebuck on a former debate, in which he had stated that the French distinguished themselves on the field of the slain, the English soldiers by' the stripes on their backs. This, he said, was a libel upon the British army ; and that a more unfounded statement had never been uttered from the mouth or pen of man. (Loud cheers.) Th e F renc h, an d h e spo k e f rom 'experience, never stopped to examine either the rear or the frontof their enemies. (Loud cries of " Hear, hear.") The Spaniards, though a brave, were a jealous nation; they bad never shown any affection for their best friends—they tergot that they' owed their country as a nation to the success of at, British army, and, as in most cases of ordinary life, they, as a nation, were regardless of gratitude for favours conferred. ( Hear, hear.) On the 16th of January last, it appeared, how ever, that the British Legion moved from Vittoria for the pur pose of joining 'in the attack upon the Carlists. Now out of Vittoria there were three roads towards Madrid. He- spoke from personal knowledge of the district, for he knew every inch of the ground, inasmuch as out of Vittoria he had followed with the British army, during the war, the French, who retreated with such . expedition, that so far from stopping to strip and examine the backs of the English (laughter,) that they left between 600 and 700 carriages behind them near the town, con taining the great portion of the plunder they had taken in it. (Hear, hear.) He spoke therefore from his local knowledge, and repeated that there was three roads, two of them leading towards France; and the other towards Durango. The right and centre roads were occupied by the Carlists, and the road to , the left by Generals Evans and Espartero. General Evans on that occasion succeeded in every part of the duty he was ordered to execute, and with his force crossed three bridges, and took up a good position; but, strange to say, the right and centre columns, the one under Cordova on the Tolosa road, the other under rF'spartero on the road leading be the left to Villareal, both retreated without any communication of the fact being made to General Evans; and what was the result? Why nearly the loss of his entire corps. (Hear, hear.) This was no fault to be attributed to General Evans. He, however, remained in the position he had taken until th e 20th of January, without the supplies that were absolutely necessary to the forces under his command—those forces exposed to bad weather during a most inclement season—without any covering under which the men could go; and eventually he fell back, and reported to General Cordova what he hOci. done. This was the first corn ' munication that passed bettkeen General Evans and Cordova. Here it was that the seeds of future schisms were sown, and to this these schisms might be traced. He was sorry to find that unpleasant feelings bad arisen on this point in the mind of General Evans, who, he was sure, left, with his companions in arms, this country with perfect honour to themselves, and with the best wishes for success in the breasts of their fellow country men. (Hear, hear.) Those officers under General Evans who had served in the regular army had had a must severe task to perform, inasmuch as another person, besides General Evans, a Spaniard of some rank, had appointed other officer's to the British Legion, without General Evans's sanction or concur rence ; indeed, some individuals had been appointed who were so unaequainted with military matters as scarcely to know on which side their Seoul was to dangle. (Hear, and laughter.) As to the effect on Spanish affairs of the efforts of the British Legion, and the subject in that respect generally, he left it to others to deal with that question. He should, however, have wished, that if any interference in the affairs of Spain had been made to stop the effusion of blood, and to lead to the determina tion of the mute—if, in a word, the interference was justifiable —he should haveieoned that it would have been made in a way calculated to makteese n impression. (hear.). The hon. and learned gentleman opposite had paid a high compliment to the English army, by saying th a t th ree b attalions of British regular troops would set all at rest in Spain. Now he, (Sir John Egey) , after some experience would say that ten times three battalions' were necessary, for he was satisfied, that without a great pre ponderating force, no good could be effected. In a word, if, by the scale of assistance afforded, that assistance only played sec ond in the concert of arms, the British troops would be para lyzed for want of accordance on the part of those of Spain. (Hear, hear.) He had hoped that the government would in terfere in a vray becoming that dignity which the world admitted this country to poeiese amongst nations, and that thus this san guinary war would have been brought to a termination. (Hear. hear.) He trusted also that General Evans Would not be reinforced by mere dribblets, by which no beneficial result could possibly be attained. On a former occasion, during the last session, he bad told his hon. and gallant friend to look well to the sinews of war—in other words, to, look to six months' pay welt secured in the Treasury chest. a His hon. and gallant friend said thereon smilingly, that two months' pay would an-. swer every purpose, for that at all events he could look to Spa nish treasure. He (Sir John Elley) had responded, that as soon as blood could be extracted from a post, so soon the mir acle of reaching Spanish treasure would be worked out. (A laugh.) Results had occurred in confirmation of his views, for he found that in November last, the estimates sent for a month's pay then due, amounted to £l3OO and that all advanced to liquidate that amount from the military chest was £250. (bear.) He feared he had been too diffuse on the present occasion, but he trusted he had not made a single observation at all calculated to give pain to any individual. He had no such intention when he rose, and he hoped he had not strayed so as to hurt the feelings of any person in the. world. (hear.') Sir ROBERT PEEL in answer to Lord Palmerston, contended that there was nothing in the quadruple treaty requiring the re peal or suspension of the foreign enlistment act. We had sup plied the Queen of Spain with 150,000 muskets, 10,000 swords, 3,000 rifles, 900,0001b5. of gunpowder, with a variety of other stores, amounting to about £400,000, no part of which had been paid for. In a speech of great length he deprecated the inter ference on the affairs of Spain, by permitting EngliSlitnen to enlist in her service as mercena r i es , u n p ro tected by the crown. In conclusion he said :—For my own part, 1 doubt the ultimate result of the war which we are now assisting the Queen's-go vernment to carry on. (Cheers froth the opposition.) If we succeed in establishing her dynasty by the assistance of our troops the Queen's government cannot repress a mountain insurrec tion without the aid of a foreign force, I cannot bring mys e lf to believe that a government which rests for support on foreign intervention, can be permanently successful. (Cheers.) Again, let us look to our interference, or rather to our mode of interfer ence, as it bears on the domestic policy of England. For my own part, I doubt the policy of letting a large force of British soldiers enter into the service of a foreign power in the way in which the British legion has entered into the service of the Queen of Spain, (Cheers from e the opposition.) If it i s de feated, it injur es th e national character, and damps the national spirit. If, in consequence of that defeat, you increase its num bers, and raise it to 20.000 men, and if upon that increase its exertions become triumphant, and it returns to England flushed with feelings of victory, I will not conceal from you the apprehensions of danger which I entertain from your - having two different armies in your dominions, both belonging to the same country, but connected with their officers by different ties. At twelve o'clock the house and the debate was adjourned. MILITARY FLOGGING.-CORONER'S INQUEST. A coroner's inquest has been held at the Royal Marine Bar racks, W oo l t vich, on the body of a private marine, named. Wm. b Saundr e who had been sentenced to receive two hundred lashes by a court triartial, one-baltorwhieh tentence was, however, re mitted by the commanding officer, Colonel M`Cleverty. It should he observed, that inquests on persons dying in military or naval hospitals are not required by the law, and that the one in question was held at the request of the commanding officer. Mr. Henry Parkin, surgeon, swore that the death of the marine was not occasioned by the punishment, but by the effects of fever. Dr. Samuel Sollev, lecturer on anatomy at St. Thomas's Hospital, gave the following evidence:—l have examined the body of the deceased, in company with the other medical gen tlemen. The viscera of the chest was perfectly healthy, and in the abdomen the only morbid appearances I . could perceive were two circular spots arising from the congestion of the smaller vessels, .which appeared to threaten ulceration. The mucous membrane and upper part of the trachea were redder than usual, and the tongue was furred. • Coroner.—You are awar: that the deceased received 100 lashes with the cat-o'-nine-tails, is it your opinirin that such punishment had anything to do with the cause of death ? Witness.—No, it had not. Corener.—Would the punishment have produced any of the morbid appearances you have described? Witness.—l should say decidedly not. A Juror.—What in yogr opinion produced the fever? Witness.—lt is impossible to say what may produce fever. The atmosphere will sometimes produce it, and it exhibits different effects on different constitutions. A Juror.—Do you think that this' man would have died of fever if he had not been flogged ? Witness.—Yes ; I think he would. Mr James Lawrence, a surgeon, was directed by Sir Wil liam Burnett, physician general to the navy, to attend the post mortem examination of the deceased. The injurNs received by the deceased on the back were very trifling and had not the slightest relation to the death that ensued. 111 r. Butler, parish surgeon, of Woolwich, was of opinion that the man coufd not have died from the punishment he received. Several of the jurymen were disposed to return a verdict .con trary to the evidence adduced, but eventually thirteen agreed in opinion '` that the deceased died by the visitation of God, and not by the hands of any person or persons whatever." The deceased, ',it appears, was guilty of a disobedience of or ders in refusing to go through what is called the " log drift": minor sort of punishment, to which he was sentenCid'kr proper conduct when performing duty elsewhere. He was con-. sequently brought to a court-martial and sentenced to receive two hundred lashes, which were commuted to half the by Colonel M . Cleveriy, who had previously expostiested with the deceased, and pointed nut the folly of his pers i st i p ,„ i n his, refusal to undergo the lesser runisbm( Surel gle won In conse rIrIHI wi In whi To wa And, ii sum the which I tick the usu whom We Lire aln of the settlen tiered t sear .1 the cc the in then o nary d, COMInj on the sume be fay( We Demei former Cher ing, w induiei more Were t numbe ever r seem t crease it., or. arrivec repres( Apoth( deed et of" Eng its sift for tax Jamaic The respect eaAlt of to the office of Oxf tion an admit clanger know I petratc mons tiona] , ranee. the He in the Solent in deft the sec The ter wh, liberty the car nlajorii perieni sions, ; the Hr conten Constit towns ignora' Priests der ti € gardle! ter, pr► who ga tapacit The refe tiered, On cons 6 iPle n Yet rll5. the Fr( adopt e YIUME House individ fin ger to an ricly ea the bisi kirulre( veninn who st; tious (1. 11 e and clic ati on a first soi Wholes, stitutic restore is said We any. oti tnentec d3 Y, th suk gd , tor the cent rat terious °Pen, t' honest been it tu ipriss what tl ha ve I Chan ge tbe3' But, has not ever i s I;vii
