Some of the articles display both ability and good taste, and upon the whole it is calculated to diffuse much both of enjoyment and of refinement of feeling among the families of our land, with the rising portion of whose members it will no doubt soon become a favourite. The following extract from the paper entitled, "The Press in Manchester" is a pretty just description of the stuff of which one of one of our contemporaries, who is ever and anon bragging of the extent of his circulation and the number of his readers, we mean the Mercury. " In some journals we have nothing but prosy articles on lo cal alterations, heroics on new streets, and eloquence ready in behalf of any project which promises to pull down a few houses end erect new ones. In others we have dry recapitulations of undeniable facts, and in most we observe a want of argument from principle rather than from prejudice or interest. The edi tor of the London Times might come down to Manchester and write for a year on general principles without exciting notice, but if he happened to charge full tilt at some delapidated .old house and demand its immediate destruction, in words becom ing enough for Catitine at the gates of Rome, what an immense sensatiou the article would occasion ! But if further he were to produce a lecture on a railway, and introduce with caustic expressions certain allusions to particular parties who wanted a few poua'ls more for some yards of land, and if he declaimed on the advantages of di., said project in terms more adapted to a scheme for the liquidation of the national debt, styling every supporter who hoped to make a premium of the scrip " patri otic," and every opponent of the specific line " an oppressor o his country," we verily believe that the circulaorion of the paper; thus distinguished would rise incredibly in one day !" The following remarks are at this moment apropos:— " It is a duty incumbent on all lovers of good order to sup. port and encourage the Conservative press; to share their fa vours between both sides is not fair to those who labour in de , fence of the constitution, and is a course of conduct which none of the Whig-Radical party, with all their boasts of superior li terality, ever imitate. If the wealthy manufacturers and other Conservatives in this town think that their personal interests, the interests of property and of the country, will be advanced by sanctioning sedition and adding influence to democratic principles, let them by all means support, and maintain the Radical press. If the Conservative press is deserted now, it will desert the cause when most needed, for it will siuiO into ob scurity, of entirely fail whenever a sudden crisis arrives; but if it is well supported at the present time, if such assistance is given it as will enable the proprietors to continue spite of tem porary difficulties or sudden failures of circulation, arising from gusts of popular madness, it will be found serviceable and stead fast." LONDON . LAW REPORT. ROLLS' COURT-MONDAY. THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. ASPINALL AND OTHERS. This was an information by the Attorney-General, at 'the relation of Messrs. Bolton and Jevons, two merchants residing at Liverpool, against the defendants, who were trustees of a sum of £105,000, which had been raised by the old corporation, previous to the members going out of office, for the endowment of the clergy of the borough. It appeared that the corporation was the patron of seve ral churches in the town, and had the right of presenting the ministers to such churches, according to the acts of parliament under which the churches had been founded and endowed. It further appeared that stipends had been annually allowed to the ministers out of the corporate funds. A part of each stipend was paid pursuant to the acts of parliament, and the remainder was allowed by an annual vote of the Common Council, and amounted in the whole to the annual sum of £5,100. After the pass ing of the municipal corporation act, but before it came into operation, the old corporation determined to make a permanent provision for the ministers, and also to aug ment the stipends paid to the incumbents and theircurates. 'To carry their intention into effect they determined to raise A sum of money upon the security of the Salthouse Dock estate, of the annual value of £2,000, and the To bacco Warehouse, of the annual value of £4,000. It was proposed to vest the sum of £105,000, part of which sum was the amount so raised on mortgage, in trustees, who were to divide the dividends and annual income arising from the money among the incumbents of the several churches in the borough. To prevent this intention from being completed, an injunction was ob tained, ex parte, which on the Ist of December last was dissolved by Lord Cottingliam, then Master of the Rolls, and immediately afterwards the money was raised, and the corporate seal affixed to the security. At the same time a deed was executed by the trustees, to whom the money was paid, declaring the trusts of the money, and the proportions in which the annual income was to be paid to the incumbents and curates of tile several churches. The present information was filed for the purpose of ob taining the sum of £105,000 from the trustees, and pray ing that the same might be paid to the treasurer of the borough fund, and be applied under the direction of the new Town Council for the benefit of the borough and the inhabitants. To this information a demurrer was put in on the ground that the parties had no equity to call for any such payment. The case was argued some time since, and stood over for his lordship's judgment. Lord Langdale, after stating the facts of the case, ob served that it had been argued that the old corporation could dispose of the whole of the corporate property • in that proposition he did not concur, and it was evident that the legislature did not think that they could dispose of the corporate property. It was, however, in this case, a power of the old corporation at the passing of the new municipal reform act, and whatever application of the corporate property was made by the act, it was always made subject !_o the debts of the corporation. The pro• vision for the ininis!ers of the churches had been ob tained by an annual vote of the corporation, and for rais ing that the inhabitants were subject to a rate, which, however, might no 4 be dispensed with. The clauses of the new municipal reform act, which gave the new Town Council the power to question the contracts of the old corporation, entered into after t he sth (lay of J une , 1835 , were by no means clear — the presen t question would seem to - fall among the acts which the ne w Town Coun cil might question. If, however, the appropriation was made for an inadequate consideration, it did not seem that the words of the act were adapted to meet the question. If the words of the several clauses were fully considered, it would be seen that they would not authorise the court, upon an application of this nature, to call in question the acts of the old corporation. It had been argued that as the municipal reform act was a new law, it had varied the constitutions of every corporation. He differed from the argurr.:!nts which had been used to support the pro position, notwithstanding the act. The new Town Coun cil %Vir; the same corporation, representing the inhabi tants of the town in the same manner as the body that had retired from office, and it did not seem that the 97th section of the act excluded their jurisdiction.—His lord ship then continued. He said, the calling in question, which the act provides for, is the calling in question those acts of the corporation under its old governing body by the corporation tinder its new governing body in a par. ticular mode. Tne_corporation, however, varied both in its governing body and in the persons interested 'in the application of its property must be considered in a court of law, as a continuing corporation—the new governing , body represent, or we re intended to represent, the in lerest of the inhabitants , a nd t he p o wer is giv en to t h e new governing body, for the benefit of the inhabitants, to prevent an application of the property prejudicial to the interest of the inhabitants by the old governing body ; but I think that the provision of the particular remedy given by the 97th clause does not exclude the j ur i s di e . tion of this court if a proper case for relief is made. Does the supplemental information, then, E hew such a case as makes it proper for this court to interfere? As I have -observed there is no allegation of fraud, collusion, or im prudence, or of any injury done or likely to happen to the rate-payers or inhabitants; particular charges introduced into the ori g inal information are wholly omitted. And , after stating the facts, it is alleged that the appropriation was a misapplication of the property of the funds of the cor poration—that the governing body could not lawfully make such an appropriation—that the trustees ought to repay the monies—and then it is alleged that the defend ants, the mayor, aldermen, and burgesses of Liverpool, hare been advised and admit that the appropriation is invalid—they ate desirous that the suns of £105,000 should be repaid by the trustees thereof to be applied for th e purposes aforesaid, and they have in fact applied to the t rus t ees to r e pay the same ; but they refuse to take any further steps to procure the repayment thereof with out the direction and sanction of the court, and those are the allegations on which this information is founded. I can only construe the charge :Alicia have read as a state ment that the new council, which is specially authorised to interfere refuse to do so, and that without any supposed collusion benefit of th e b'etvkeen them a nd th e p e r sons c l a i m i ng th e appropriati o n.

It .

On the whole of this case, con ceiving that to some extent and for some purpose a new trust did attach on the corporation property on the pass ing of the act, but that the old governing body were not forbidden or precluded from a fair application of the cor porate property for the benefit of the inhabitants—not being able to say that the application of the property for the more secure endowment of the clergy of the esta blished church, performing divine service in churches and chapels of the borough, is not under the circumstances of this case an application which must legally be consi dered beneficial to the inhabitants of the borough—con sidering the case to be within the 97th section, without saving that in no case whatever this court would not have had jurisdiction, although the 97th clause was applicable —but, thinking it a case in which the remedy given by that section ought to have been resorted to, and having regard to the nature of the charge in this information, it does not appear to me, supposing all the allegations which it contains to be true, that I could decree the re lief which is prayed for, or any other relief, and, there fore, I think the demurrer ought to be allowed. The Solicitor-General.-1 do not know whether your lordship thinks any thing turns on the want of those charges in the supplemental information, because if so your lordship would give us leave to amend by intro ducing those charges. Mr. Pemberton.—They were left out purposely, it was stated at the bar. It wa.57 stated this had been do.:e for the purpose of bringing the question neatly before the court- 7 4hose charges were purposely left out. Lord Langdale.—Being so, I do not see that I ought to allow it. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS —Mommy. WRIGHT V. BURDIS AND OTHERS. This was an action brought to recover the value of a vessel, named the Stephen, which was lost some time ago on her voyage from Dublin to Liverpool. The ac tion was stopped by the court after the examination of two witnesses upon this point—namely, it appeared that several mortgages were granted on the vessel, and before the sailing of the vessel a mortgagee, named Barker, took possession, dismissed the captain and crew, and ap pointed others in their stead. It was, therefore, con tended by the counsel for the defendants that the present plaintiff had no property in the vessel at the time she was lost, and could not maintain the action. . . The CHIEF JUSTICE agreed that, by the provisions of a recent act, the object urged on the part of the defend ants must be sustained. The present action was not for a Court of Law. The parties might bring the question into an Equity Court. The plaintiff' nonsuited accordingly. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, MONDAY. M`CARTY V. COLS IN AND OTHERS. This action was brought by the plaintiff to recover from the defendants the sum £419 18s 9d. The plaintiffs resided at Calcutta, and the defendants were merchants in London. The plaintiffs had directed that the sum of £1,200 should be sold out of the Eng lish Funds, for the purpose of paying certain bills, the balance to be paid over to defendants, that they might remit it to them. The sum of £419 18s 9d was accord ingly paid over to the defendants by the agents of the plaintiffs, and they alleged that they had paid it into the house of Colvin and Co., who had since become insol vents. It was admitted on the part of the defendants that they had received the money, but they contended they had paid it on account with the correspondents .tt Calcutta, for the use of the plaintiffs, and they gave them advice that they had so done ; and, that notwith standing they had since failed, the liability ceased the moment the letter was dispatched. Lord Denman holding that it was a payment, the plaintiff was nonsuited, leave being reserved to move the court. Sir F. Pollock conducted the plaintiff's case ; the At torney-General and Mr. Bazett the defendants. REVISING BARRISTERS. We are glad to see that Sir Robert Peel has takr.n up the question touching the appointment of the revising barristers, and that he views with patriotic indignation the infamous attempt made by the Whig-radical ministers to get into their hands the selection of the men who are to enfranchise or disfranchise the electors of the empire. We have before spoken out upon this subject, and we earnestly entreat all who are not bound like slaves to the chariot wheels of the whigs to show their independence and hatred of corruption, by depriving the ministry of the chance of exercising the unconstitutional power they would seek to obtain. We trust, at all events, that in bringing up the report of the registration bill no conser vative member will be absent from his post, and that all will unite in proving by their votes that they will be no parties to the infamous and corrupt scheme for whig do mination. IVell and truly did Sir Robert Peel say, "that the first ( alterations in the principles of the reform bill would ori ginate with the reformers themselves, with the authors of the bill, the whole bill, and nothing but the bill." Every session has produced some new " amendment" upon some bill connected with the " reform measure," but all the new machinery that has been introduced has been cun ningly devised and constructed to diminish the influence of the conservatives and to increase that of the impartial whigs. The reformers have every session been reform ing their own pet measure. They found, when the fever of reform had subsided, that they had not succeeded in strangling and annihilating the conservatives—they found that with every fresh election that party were, even under the working of the bill, gaining upon them, and it was therefore deemed necessary that some new check-springs should be introduced to clog their progress. The revising barristers, it was suddenly discovered, .liaci not done their duty. There were " too many tones" amongst them ; and as the shortest way to effectually destroy conservatism would be by getting the appoint ment of men of their own faction to the office that has the power to qualify or disqualify, it was determined that the revising barristers should be carried away at one fell swoop—that a new corps of functionaries, of limited number, should take their duties—and that the selection should rest with the ministry, who will take care that no tory shall he nominated, arid that even no whig shall re main in the discharge of his functions if he allows a ma jority of conservatives to be registered If this atrocious scheme to get possession of the fran chise of the people of England is passed into law, going to the poll will be a waste of time, and the day of election a day of farce. The struggle has been hitherto fought in the registration courts, before a body of men who were of all shades of party, of competence to fulfil the duties, and who were as a body untaxed with partiality. By this measure the struggle will he fought before a select clique of party factionists, whose fiat will, upon appearance of any flaw, disfranchise the claim of the conservative. Wicked, profligate, and corrupt, as every action of the wings has been, we must confess that this endeavour to grasp the domination over the franchise for party purpo ses, excels all they have ever attempted in gross political iniqui!y. But however, as Cobbett said, "Thank Gou, we have a House of Lords !"

IMPORTANT DECISION.—In th e ma tt er o f H. C. Watkins, a bankrupt.—A question of importance to sporting gentlemen has lately been decided by the C o u r t o f R ev i ew i n Bankruptcy.— The facts are these. Mr. Henry Charles Watkins, late of this town, was the secretary of the Chatsworth Coursing Club, which met at the house of lsl r. King, the Bu s h I nn , w h o was treasurer. Watkins was in the habit of receiving subscriptions, and other monies belonging to the club, which he should have paid over to Mr. King. He subsequently became a bankrupt, and at the time of his bankruptcy, he had about £2OO iu his hands belong ing to the club. 11r. W. C. Chew, of thi s t own, an attorney for the club, attended on their behalf to prove on Watkin's estate, in the name of M . r.•King, as treasurer; but the commis sioners under the fiat refused to allow the club to prove, stating. that it was a gambling transaction. A petition was then pre sented by Mr. Chew, on behalf of Mr. King, to the Court of Review, praying to be allowed to prove for himself a nd the other members of the club, which petition was opposed by Messrs. Temple and Parker, as :'ounsel for the assignees under Watkin's estate. and they contended that this was not a club under any act of parliament, but that the transacti on w i t h Watkins was illegal, on the ground of gaming; they also denied the agency of the bankrupt. The court, however, after he a rin g Mr. Sturgeon, as counsel for the petitioner, made an older for the petitioner to be allowed to prove on behalf of himself and the other members of the club, and the claim was not to be re sisted on the ground of gaming. The order was produced before the commissioners, and by the directions of the court they al lowed the club to prove for £l6B 55., observing that the club might consider themselves as incorporated, being- allowed to prove in the name of their treasurer.—Manchester Chronicle. THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD. kniptriat Var Hamra. HOUSE OF COMMONS.-MONDAY. In the Commons, Mr. Shirley, the new member for South Warwickshire, took the oaths and his seat. Mr. 'WARBURTON presented a petition from Mr. Donovan, the inventor of a new system of lighting light-houses, complain ing of the treatment of the Trinity House corporation in the management of his experiment. Mr. A. CHAPMAN vindicated the corporation, declaring that opportunity fur the experiment had been afforded, but that one night the light exploded and left all in Cimerian darkness. Mr. WARBURTON repeated that the treatment had not been correct. As to theinvention it hal the approbation of the must scientific men, and he doubted not that eventually it would be universally adopted. Mr. S. CkAWFORn stated that in consequence of the opposi tion to which it had been exposed he should withdraw the land lord and tenant (Ireland) bill, but that next session he would move for a committee on the subject. . . Sir E. CoDRINOTON, on presentinv a petition, urged on the attention of the house the propriety of allowing bonded corn to be ground, as, and flour, exported. Mr. ROBINSON gave notice that, next session, if the govern ment did not propose a measure on this subject, he would. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL presented a petition from Edin burgh, &c., fur the increase of means of conveyance by mail, between London and Edinburgh. THE IRISH CHURCH BILL. On the motion that the house go into committee on the Irish church bill, Sir. G. SINCLAIR expressed his astonishment that this bill was pressed forward with the " appropriation" clause in it; and at the tenacity with which ministers adhered to their places. The house then went into committee on the bill. Lord MAHON rose to move the omission of the Stith and 51st, or appropriation clauses. He began by stating that there would have been no difficulty in adjusting all the other clauses, but upon the principle of the inalienable nature of church property there could be no compromise. It was therefore that he moved the omission of the appropriation clause in the bill. He be lieved that the charge of negligence might apply to the Irish church at an earlier period of its history, and to that circum stance might be imputed the little progress which protestantisin had made. But speaking of the present day he did not believe that there was in the world a clergy more pious, more ex emplary, or more remarkable for every christian virtue than the suffering clergy of Ireland. He admitted that an anomaly did exist in the Irish church at present; but he denied that the ap propriation clause did anything to remove that anomaly. The anomaly was the disproportion of the church to the population. But he denied that this, though an anomaly, was an abuse, fur though the majority of the population was catholic, the majority —the great majority of the property was protestant; not less than 19-20ths of the property was in the hands of the protestants. After some further observations to the same effect, the noble lord concluded by moving " that the sUth and 51st clauses should be omitted." Mr. Pour-Tait contended that the clause did not propose the alienation of church property; it only proposed to set aside the real surplus for the moral improvement of the people. The two houses of parliament might differ as to details; but in the present instance they differed to the whole extent of the princi ple upon which the government was founded. At the same time he was an enemy to all extremes, and wished to see the privileges of the House of Lords sustained. Mr. PLUMPTRE opposed the clause. Mr. E. TENNENT said that, for a long series of years the peace of Ireland and the whole of this country had been dis turbed and destroyed by a demand for an adjustment of the question of the Irish Church, and that adjustment was on the eve of being effected by the right hon. baronet below him (Sir R. Peel) on terms which he (Mr. E. T.) firmly believed would have been satisfactory to all parties, when the forcible introduc ' tion of this appropriation principle flung back the question in to its original position, and interposed an insuperable barrier to its settlement. Thus, with a ministry on one hand, sup ported by a majority of that house, pledged to resist every set tlement of this question which did not involve the principle of appropriation—and, on the other hand, the remaining branches of the legislature, and the majority of the people of England, equally determined to resist any arrangement in which it is in cluded, and most certainly not likely to relax that resistance; is it not a lateral and undeniable fact that the tenure on which the present administration avowedly . retain their power is a so lemn and positive engagement against any adjustment of the Irish tithes, or any possible settlement of the Irish Church? Was it probable, he would ask, or is it possible that a ministry could continue to hold office on such terms ? In the face of an unavoidable confession of their inability to effect a settlement of some of the most important questions which can occupy the attention of the legislature? Is it " Justice to Ireland" to keep open this fertile cause of discontent, festering and irritat ing from year to year, for no other assignable object than the retention in place of one set of men, who cannot expect a satis factory adjustment, to the exclusion of others who can ? (hear, hear.) Above all, is it justice to the poor Irish, to the payers who have had in their power for some time past to obtain an abatement of from 20 to 30 per cent., which the tithe-owners were willin'r to pay to them in consideration of the increased facilities of collecting their income, which an equitable com mutation would afford them? Is it fair or just, he would say, to them, to declare that they must forego this advantage, be cause the abstract resolution of 18.35 prohibits them from en joying it? He (Mr. E. T.) knew that there were considera-. tions which now occupied the minds of men out of doors, who last session were eager for the adoption of this appropriation clause, and he felt satisfied that in that house there was no party more anxious for the abandonment of that clause than the partizans of the right hon. gentlemen who occupied the op posite bench, provided any decent expedient could be devised for " shaking off their engagement" (cheers.) But there is another class much more numerous and influential with whom during the last year this appropriation clause has ceased to be popular—he alluded to those moderate and well-meaning men who, without being partisans on either side , were deluded by declamation and misrepresentations of the wealth of the estab lished church, and allured by speciou s p rofessions about the promotion of education and the moral instruction of the people with which the annunciation of this proposal was accompanied, and wile, without investigating the principle of the alienation, saw nothing in the result but the application to one legitimate purpose, of a sum which they conceived was not required for another, and believed that they were ensuring peace to Ire land and contentment to the Roman Catholics, without injury to the Protestant Church. In every one of these particulars the parties have been successively undeceived. The vaunted riches of the establishment have exhibited on a scrutiny a de ficiency rather than a surplus; and the tone of exultation with which the proposal for their alienation has been hailed by the Roman Catholics of Ireland has satisfied them that the pass- ing of this clause, so far from being the end of agitation, is in reality but the beginning of change (" hear," and cheering.) As a political measure it is pregnant with mischief and danger, and, having served its purpose as a political engine, it has not only ceased to be an assistant, but has actually become an in cumbrance to its promoters. Like the horse in the fable they sought the aid of an ally, but have effectually saddled themselves with a rider. (Cheers.) There was but one other point con nected with this question on which he (Mr. Emerson Tennent) was desirous of offering an observation, and that was the power of parliament to interfere in the manner which was here con templated with the property of the church. He did not mean the absolute and irresponsible power which parliament possessed to effect that or any other object, but the right and equity of such a proceeding a s was th rea t ene d. H e did not mean to enter upon the general question of such a power, but simply to allude to one of al., :oust prominent arguments which had been used in favour of it by the supporters of this bill, and which he conceived, though constantly adduced, by no means afforded a case in point. He referred to the argument drawn from the confiscation of ecclesiastical property at the period of the re formation, and the appropriation to the uses of the . protestant church. Parliament, we are reminded, gave its sanction, in the reign of Henry VIII., to the transfer of church property from the monasteries and clergy of the Roman Catholics to the pro testant establishment, and, consequently, they argue it possesses an equal power to reconvey it from the Protestants to the Ro man Catholics, or to any other parties at the present slay. The assertion was made in a total forgetfulness of the relative posi tions of the parliament and the church at the period of the re formation and at the present time. The Roman Catholic church then claimed to hold its property altogether as an independent and irresponsible corporation, confessing allegiance to Rome alone, and acknowledging no authority or right of interference in the crown or parliament. Even the power of their own tax ation was then, and till a period long subsequent, solely in the hands of the convocation of the clergy. One great constitu tional effect of the reformation was the destruction of this imps rum in imperio, and the transfer of its property to the protestant church, and other lay subjects of the realm, who acknowledged the crown as their head, and received their endowments under the guardianship and protection of the legislature. Parliament, in fact, neither claimed nor exercised any species of authority over the property of the church till it had been transferred from the monasteries to those who had acknowledged themselves sub jects of the crown; and the effects of the change were amply attested in the reign of Queen Marv, who having restored the Roman Catholic religion, applied for the sanction of parlia ment to restore to it its property likewise, which parliament, although chiefly composed of Roman Catholics themselves, re solutely refused, on the grounds that having by its confiscation from the church of Rome, become vested in their trust for the subjects of the crown, they could not without a violation of all faith permit it to be alienated. (Hear, hear.) The conduct of the parliament in the reign of Queen Mary, therefore, rather than in that of Henry VIII., affords the precedent by which this house ought to be guided. transfer to the church of England by the latter was an act of power without involving-a breach of trust; but its reconveyance now would be a violation of the faith of the legislature and the honour of the crown. He (Mr. Emerson Tennent) knew how futile it was to rely upon ' reasoning of this kind, as arguments to alter the foregone con clusions of the majority of that house. He knew bow vain it was to hope that anything but popular influence could affect the decision on which they were about to come on this question. Among the many evils which agitation had inflicted upon the country, it was riot the least alarming that it had gone far to destroy the deliberate functions of that assembly; and that questions which formerly exercised the judgment of the legis lature were now settled at the chapels and the hustings whence representative s were delegated to record their decisions in Par liaraent. lie (Mr. E. Tennent) had little expectation that any observations of his could have weight with gentlemen who were c i ta b hidp l u y ltseh f ,r e eem e fil l i ling t o h ahv e let a inconveniencesonly inducedthis u arising cttoiipitot ohr f tdt r ai o rtnae n tw i about to vote und er suc h influences; but he still cherished a on hope that his Maj es ty' s m i n i sters, who, of all others, must most ttie i s s sffta a ri co, p , tr nn p o. r r o ,t(, p hha r ei i .n a edta t , i riohl. bill, and s q a t The house was then afterwards addressed by Mr. J. O'Connell, Sir F. Trench, Dr. Baldwin, Mr. Hardy, and Lord Morpeth. Mr. SHEIL repeated the arguments of the ministerial party, and was replied to by Lord STANLEY.—After referring to the very eloquent speech delivered by Mr. Shell, he said the first principle of the estab lished religion of this country was that it adapted itself to the condition of every class of society. 'nose who pi ofessed were taught not to resist the ordinance of man ; they were taught to respect the laws of the country, to give all inen their due, and take care to owe no man any thing. The Imn, and learned ‘vent. told the house that the people of England were in favour of the appropriation clause. But let him speak out at once, and tell the people of England what his ultimate objects were. Let not the hon. and learned gent. deceive hi mse lf w i t h t h e idea that a bare majori ty— a majority which was daily and hourly diminishing, which - had, for the sake of peace, sanctioned the delusive and mischievous provisions of this bill; would go the length of consummating the annihilation of the established church in Ireland. (Cheers.) The people of E ng l an d are w i t h you —are they ? (Loud cheering- from the Opposition benches.) Would the honourable and learned member honestly tell the people of England what his real intentions were, for they knew that under this bill there was no peace ? (Tremendous cheer ing.) Would he tell them that which many of his friends would say in private? Let the noble lord look to his majority. Let hirn analyse that majority. Let him in the secrecy of his own closet ask himself with how man)' that majority he believed the permanent object to be the reformation of the church; and, Is him ask himself also whether, if the question were, shall w e support, shall we approve of the church of Ireland--shall we g o no further— ?—how many of these who make up this majorit y now will be prepared to support him then ? The honourable and learned gentlemen said that the people of England were beginning to ask what was the use of the church establishment at all? If that were the question we were to discuss, in God's name, let us discuss it; and with the people of England, of Ireland, and of Scotland let us join this issue, aye or no, throughout the dominions of the Crown of this realm—will you or wilt you not have the Protestant establishment He should be glad if the house could come to this issue, but he hated this bush-fighting in the dark. He hated to be told we were fighting' a shadow and delusion, and that we must not touch the sub stance that lurked behind. We were placed in this difficulty. If it were said that the tendency of the proposition was to de stroy the Church of Ireland, that was met with an indignant disclaimer, that nothing could be further from the views of its supporters. It was said, however, that there was an extrava gant, exorbitant, and bloated church; that so much would be given as was absolutely necessary for the church itself; and that the surplus wonld be applied to the purposes of education. Any surplus, however small, would be applied, said the honourable member for Tipperary, to strictly Protestant ecclesiastical pur poses, and that was the general diffusion of education. When the honourable and learned gentleman said, if you desire to extend the Protestant religion, educate the people, break the yoke—(cries of "Oh, oh," from one honourable member, upon which Lord Stanley observed, "education may be usefully ap plied in that quarter")—what was his answer to the hon. and learned gentleman ? For so natural a purpose ask the sum you want, and the Parliament of Great Britain will grant it. There is no limit to the demand that this country will not be prepared to grant. When the honourable and learned gentleman said in one breath that his only object was to obtain sufficient funds for an ecclesiastical and Protestant purpose—education, he (Lord S.) was ready to meet him to the full extent as to the argument. He knew that it was not a sincere argument. He knew that with him and those who thought like him, the object of the bill was not the promotion of education. He knew well that it was the assertion of a principle, comparatively valueless, but which he would drive further; and every argument which he (Lord S.) had heard put was to this effect :—the Catholics are a large numerical majority, the Protestants are an insig nificant minority, the church of the majority is that which ought to be maintained, the church of the minority Honourable gentlemen were kind enough to interrupt and dispute these views. Would any one honourable gentleman get up in his place and say he believed there was a chance—the remotest chance—that this bill, standing as it did, would be the end all and the be all of Irish agitation on the church question—would be the full extent to which they would consent to push the prin ciple of appropriation? Was there one man amongst them (his Majesty's ministers included) who would tell him chat; With what face did they come down to discuss the principles and provisions of this bill, to say that this bill was harmless— that its purposes were laudable—that its objects were truly national and Protestant—and that it would be a disgrace to a, Protestant country to refuse to pass so Protestant a bill, After referring in detail to some of the clauses of the bill, he continued :—lt was said, that the noble lord at the head of the government had confessed, with a rashness which hardly became one who spoke of the rashness of younger men, that this bill would inflict a heavy blow upon protestautism. Let that be told to the people of England—let it go forth that the prime minister of England acknowledged that his measuie inflicted a heavy blow upon protestantism. Bat the noble lord at the head of the government said "We cannot help it." Was this an argument? We know it is dangerous to the church, we know it is a heavy blow to protestantism, but we cannot help it, and why? because we are driven on by those who are aiming at other things— (cheers,) because we can neither defend our measure upon its own merits, nor can we part with the support of those whose support is indispensable. It was said, " You must give con tentment to 7,000,000 of Irishmen"—(cheers from Mr. P. Me thuen.) Would the hon. gentleman, whose cheers were so sig nificant, say that from his knowledge of the state of Ireland he was of opinion, differing from the whole of the rest of the house, that this measure would afford the slightest degree of content ment ? There was 1,503,000 persons who had no sort of direct interest in the settlement of this question. Take the 7,000,000 with whom we were threatened by the hon. and learned doctor, and he would ask whether the hon. and learned gentleman, in his publication to the people of England, held out that prospect of peace which the hon. member for Tipperary was desirous of? Did the hon and learned gentleman hold out any expectation that these 7,000,000 of whom he was the representative, would have the least satisfaction and contentment at the bill? If we were told that the measure was dangerous to the protestant church—that it was objectionable to a vast number of persons— carried by a majority, in the House of Commons—opposed by a vast majority in the Lords,—nevertheless if it were to be carried for contentment, was it reasonable to ask, will it obtain that contentment? The hon. and learned gentleman said that .the Rev. Mr. Longfield wished that he should pay him £5O a year for tithes, and because he deemed this dentand unreason able, caused a bill to be filed against him in the court of Ex li chequer. But he did not say that if this bill passed he would have done with Mr. Longfield and his claim—not at all; but he said, "I think my religion better than his, and therefore I will never pay him ls. ' He thought the hon. and learned gentleman I must really mean to refer to this bill, for he put it emphatically —" Come what come may, let this bill be passed or not, I never will pay him one single farthing," because he thought his reli gion better than the religion of the State. Could the house sanction the doctrine that no man was to pay who thought his religion better than the religion of the State ? and therefore that Irish Roman catholics, following the example of the hon. member for Kilkenny, as they had followed his advice before very much to their own detriment, was not to pay— Mr. O ' CONNELL.—That is untrue. Lord STANLEY.—The hon. and learned gentleman is the last man who ought to make use, in this house or elsewhere, of the offensive expression which he has just used, most indecently interrupting me—(cheers;) in the midst of which - - Mr. O'CoNNELL said,—Have I not a right to be heard when a charge is untruly made against me ? He first garbles my letter—(" No, no.") He did, distinctly. He next says that others have followed my advice to their detriment. It still less becomes the noble lord, whom I have observed to shrink from every man but me—(loud cries of " order," and "chair," from the opposition benches.) The confusion into which the house was thrown by this excla mation of O'Connell's lasted for some time. Several hon. members rose to order, and a scene of the greatest tumult ensued. At length, Mr. Bernal, the chairman of the committee, declared that Mr. O'Connell was out of order. Lord John Russell concurred with the chairman, and was sure that Mr. O'Connell's interruption was quite disorderly. At the same time he appealed to the chair not to allow Lord Stanley to re peat the charge he had made against ministers that they were not acting on their own opinions, but were driven on by others. Lord John Russell was himself stopped by loud cries of "Order," and when the noble lord resumed his seat, there was a general call for Mr. O'Connell to explain. The latter rose and retracted the expressions which the chairman had pronounced to be dis orderly. He would have added some other observations, but he was prevented by cries of " Order," and calls for Lord Stanley. His lordship said he thought it would have been more consistent with the rules of the house if Lord John Russell had objected to his expressions at the time he used them, instead of mixing them with another question of order, which had no reference to them. Lord Stanley, however denied that he was out of order. He had shown to the house that Lord Melbourne, admitting the measure to be a heavy blow to protestantism, added, " but we can't help it." Was it disorderly for him to infer from these admissions of the Prime Minister that the government were driven into measures against their will? Hereupon Lord John Russell again rose to order, said that nothing could be more dishonourable than the conduct Lord Stanley attributed to the government, and appealed to the chairman whether Lord Stan ley was not out of order. Tbe chairman decided that Lord Stan ley was not out of order. Lord STANLEY resumed. Fortified by the opinion of the chair, he was now entitled to consider that in bringing this charge against the government, founded upon the representa tion of the prime minister, he did not transgress the rules of order. He was showing before he had been interrupted, that if the argument upon which they were to rely in support of this measure was that it would produce content amongst a large proportion of the population of Ireland, he must be satisfied before he made the sacrifice that he would attain the object for which it was made ; and, in order to show that the bill would not effect that object, he had quoted the opinion of the hon. and learned member—well, then, he would venture to request the attention of the committee, to the opinions it contained ; and as he bad been charged with garbling, he was sure the com mittee would give him an opportunity of showing whether he had garbled it. He had not only read the hon. and learned member's letter, but he had often heard him declare those opi nions, and he had been going on to read another passage, in which the hon. and learned gentleman stated a case of a parish where there were 10,000 catholics and 200 protestants, and he said, " In the case of the catholics there is a feature of greater strength and more distinctness; it is this—these tithes were in stituted, these glebes were set apart, not by protestants for pro testant worship, but by catholics for catholic worship. They were ours; we assigned them for our purposes, the purposes of the 10.000. The force of law, or rather the law of force, has unjustly torn them from the catholics, whose property they were, and given them to the 200 protestants, whose property they are not." What, then, is the meaning of the cry " Justice to Ireland?" It means, that as it was an injustice to tear these tithes and glebes from the catholics, you must do justice and restore them to the catholics again. (Hear, hear.) There was some sense in this argument—it was a conclusion from the premises—there was some logic in this, that having taken away the tithes and glebes from the catholics, you will do justice by restoring them to them again. But the people of Ireland are more moderate than to expect this at present. "Don't demand all this at present," says the hon. and learned gentleman : " the Irish are at present more moderate—less would now content ui." -How long ? -(Cheers.) How • long would it be before we should be pressed for all that would content them ? "We desire to have tithes totally abolished: or if any part remains to be levied, that it shall be applied to the purpose of giving education to all classes of the people. We do not, at present, demand the glebes for the residence of the pastors whom the people prefer." But how long will it be before they will be demanded? (Hear, hear.) " But I candidly acknowledge that if the contest continues and grows warmer, or the protes tant clergy identify themselves with the wholesale slaughters in the field, and with the more vexatious and exasperating villany of the exchequer attornies, as the ideas they excite are of the Rathcormacs, red with the blood of the sons of widows, or of the odious exchequer rebellion writs,—all connexion with religi ous institutions is forgotten, and the Irish Juggernaut of plunder and massacre stands prominent, as demanding these sacrifices, which LienerlY thought were only made to a mere difference in religion. 'The time is, from these causes, fast arising when a compromise will be impossible"—(hear, hear) — a compromise not on the basis of the total abolition of all tithes (hear)—" and those who now refuse an amicable and moderate arrangement will have to blame themselves when a similar arrangement shall he rejected indignantly and con temptuously by the people of Ireland." (Hear, hear.) Now, did his noble friend, the Secretary for Ireland, recollect the division that took place three nights ago? How many of those who assumed to themselves to be representatives of all Ireland voted on that occasion? That was a division on an amend ment of another bill, and it was for the abolition of all tithes. Did his noble friend recollect if he did not he would see by the lists, that of the 22 members who represented all Ireland, four, including the hon. and learned member for Kilkenny, support ed his Majesty's government, and 16 out of 18 voted for the abolition ? That was a practical comment upon the letter of the hon. and learned member, and upon the chance there was of making the compromise final. But he had said enough to show that this was a dangerous measure, that it was a danger ous principle, and that the machinery was dangerous—that it tended to the destruction of the protestant church, and, as the Prime Minister hail said, it gave a severe blow to protestantism. They were told that it would strengthen the protestant church, and content the Irish people; but he (Lord Stanley) said it would do neither the one nor the other. Ministers relied upon the trifling majority in that house, but the people of England were against them. (" Hear, hear," and " No, no !") Plain sense and plain reason were against it, and though they had been permitted, under the fallacious hope of a compromise, and of strengthening the Irish protestant church and the protestant religion in Ireland, to go so far, thi s argument, as i t was now used, if it meant anything, meant this inevitable conclusion— the fall of protestant sin and the substitution of the Catholic re ligion. (Cheers.) • Mr. Sergeant JACKSON reiterated his chartrps-against the commissioners of public instruction, and entered into a minute refutation of their statements. His answer to Lord Morpeth was loudly cheered. Lord JotiN RUSSEIL closed the extended debate. In the course of his speech he said, if the division were less than it had been, or if he were left in a minority, then as a minister of the crown, or as a member of parliament, he would not hold himself responsible for attempting the settlement of the question as regarded Ireland. The house divided. The numbers were, for the clause 290, against it 264, majority in its favour being only 26 ! a falling off since the former division on this subject.—Adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS.-TUESDAT. WAR IN SPAIN. Sir It. PEEL said he wished to ask a question relative to a document which he had seen in the public papers. it purported to be an order-general by the Commander of the British Auxiliary force in the service of the Queen of Spain, and which, though drawn according to ordinary forms, still bore all the internal evidence of its being a fabrication—(hear, hear). It professed to state that as the British Auihary Legion was acting in unison with his Majesty's forces in Spain, all those who were found in the service of Dun Carlos should on that account be considered as rebels, and punished by immediate death—(hear, hear). He presumed that this was not—could not be an au thentic document, and he therefore asked if the noble lord was in possession of any information on the subject, knowing that if he was, he would avail himself of the earliest opportunity of communicating that information to the House ?—(Cheers.) Lord PALMERSTON said the right hon. baronet was aware that the question was one relating to the acts of an officer who was not in the British service, nor under the orders of the British government, who could not therefore be responsible for his acts, of which indeed they could not be officially apprised —(hear, hear). He had seen the document referred to in the papers, but had received no information upon the subject. If the right hon. baronet asked him his opinion as an individual, he felt bound to say that he believed some such order had been given (loud. cheers). He was asked the question, and he felt bound to answer it (continued cheers). He might observe, however, that no order issued by a general in the Spanish service could be considered as any interpretation of the law of England. Lord MA noN wished to ask one simple question—Were we at peace or war with Spain ? It must be a tortuous policy, in deed, which would not admit of a simple answer to such a ques tion. Toe noble lord (Mahon) was proceeding, when he was interrupted by loud cries of " order." Lord PALMERSTON said that the nublelord, in putting a plain question, need not have entered into a tortuous argument— (a laugh). We had signed a treaty with the Queen of Spain, by which this country was bound to give the operation of its naval force, if necessary, in aid of her forces in the north, and the government was now exercising that obligation—(hear). An Hon. MEMBER said that a large detachment of forces was now in the river, detained for Spain. He wished to know what clause in the treaty justified the British government in sending out that force ? Lord PALNIERSTON. said that Lord John Hay was obliged to erect some batteries, and he stated that he had great diffi culty in carrying on the works, Awing. to the inexperience of his men in that sort of employment. The detachment alluded to consisted of an officer and company of sappers and miners, who were to give the required assistance to Lord John Hay. Several petitions were presented during the early part of the sitting upon a variety of subjects. HOUSE OF LORDS.—MONDAY and WEDNESDAY.
