Those in favour of the change quoted the practice of Manchester and other inland towns, in which the average cost of inquests is certainly smaller than in Liverpool, arising from various causes, including the necessarily greater expense of witnesses in the latter. From what we can learn, however, Liverpool stands in a position, as regards this subject, very different from those towns, and it already appears the system pursued there will, - if persisted in here, very considerably increase the expenditure, in place of diminishing it, while, at the same time, it is attended with several obvious disadvantages. District inquests can only be held in inns or public houses, and the cost of a room in each would amount an nually to much more than the rent of the coroner's pre sent office : besides which, a suitable room, to accommo date the jury, and the coroner, and his clerk, (who has to write out the depositions in a fair legible hand,) is not to 'be had in every locality. The county allowance for a room is 3s. 6d. Now, we had last year no fewer than 678 inquests, and it is but fair to assume that, with our in creasing population, and the increasing number of street and doek accidents especially, the number will, on an average of future years, net fall short of 700. In each case the 3s. 6d. at least must be paid, making the rent of the rooms, or temporary courts, £122 10s. per annum. The rent of the present coroner's court, which is commo dious and respectable, though rather small when serious cases, reouirinm b numerous witnesses, are to be investi gated, is only £6O ; so that there is, on this item alone, an additional annual cost of £62 10s., or rather more than double ! The holding of inquests, too, at public houses is itself of a demoralising tendency, by naturally leading witnesses, jurors, and visitors to drinking, or to contact, if abstainers, with drinking customers of the house. It, moreover, militates against the dignity of any court, and ought not to be resorted to unless it cannot be avoided, as may , happen in country places. The evil, in fact, is complained of by, nearly all country coroners. Another circumstance is, that if the coroner be engaged here and there throughout the town for a day, and has no central office (for it is proposed to do away with it), police officers and others would be unable to find him, so as in stantly to hand in their reports of deaths,—thus causing other improper and, it might be, dangerous delays. One of the disadvantages to, we may say, the public, will be, that half of the cases will not be reported in the newspapers, and that consequently undetected or escaped delinquents, who have caused grievous injury or even death, may escape, no reports being published ; for it is impossible for proprietors of papers to employ reporters a whole ,day to run up and down the town in the wake of the coroner in order to obtain the particulars of the cases severally, and unless the informations are deposited in a central office, and they have access to them, all notice of the mass of them at least, must either be abandoned or founded upon vague and uncertain rumours. We could eularge.upon the subject, and point out what we conceive would make the old system much more satis factory in some respects, and less expensive in others ; as, for instance, by an improvement in the selection of juries, and also in the law respecting post morteni exami nations, insisted upon.by some surgeons, when the cause of death is sufficiently obvious, merely that they may pocket their fee of £2 25.; but .we shall defer further remark until another occasion. WILKIE'S PAINTING .07 NAPOLEON COMMANDING POPE Plus VII. TO SIGN TUE CONCORD. T.—olle of the greatest treats provided of late by the spirited efforts of Mr. R. IL Grundy, is the above fine picture, which is now on view at his Repository, 26, Church-street. The sub ject is one which will be remembered by every reader of modern history—the last eftbrt, or one of the last efforts, of Napoleon Buonaparte to support his tottering throne by annexing to the empire of France the ecclesiastical patronage of the Roman pontiff, Pius the Seventh. The painter has chosen for the subject of his picture the inter view between the Pope and the Emperor, at which the latter insisted upon the Pope's signature to the Concor dat, giving him the powers required. It is beautifully treated, and in every way worthy of the eminent artist. The scene is the private apartment of his Holiness, who is seated in his chair, whilst the Emperor, standing, is extending towards him, with an air truly imperative, the document required to be signed. The form and the face are a little more juvenile than those which we are accus tomed to see as those of Napoleon;_but they are in every respect characteristic. The decision and peremptory feeling of the moment are displayed in the erect frame and the firmly-compressed mouth, which has, however, a spice of scornful expression and contempt about it. The unhappy Pius is, if possible, more graphically painted, the expression chosen by the artist being that in which his penultimate and most feeble refusal was given. The picture is finely engraved in line by J. H. Robinson, engraver to her Majesty, and is well worthy of a place in the gallery of every lover of art. LORD BROUGDAM.—It now appears from the cor• respondence printed in the French papers, that Lorc Brougham really demanded his naturalization as a Frerieb • Lord.3hhip " of the consequen _ _ s that would er sons. he wo ue. If him as to be an tnglishrnan ; he would no longer be Lord but Citizen Brougham. He instantly lost all his tales of nobility, and all the privileges as an Englishman." Lord Brougham then said, " I could only enjoy my privilegss as an Englishman when in England—in France I should be what- the laws of France grant to the citizens of the Republic." The minister however pereMptorily declines to grant his Lordship the request on these terms, and adds—" France admits of no participation of rights ; she does not admit a French citizen to be at the same time a citizen of any other country. To become a French man you must cease to be an Englishman ; you cannot be an Englishman in England and a Frenchman in France ; our laws are absolutely opposed to such a thing, an abso lute choice must be made. It was for that reason that 1 wag careful in pointing out the consequence s o f net urali • . LEADERS' OUT OF Woup another turn to the proceedings, and tallied such nonsense as the following':— .

THE BISHOP OF EXETER AND THE REV. MR. HORE. —A public meeting was held on Friday, in Exeter Hall, to hear from the Rev. J. Shore,. of Berrc Pomero-, a nar rative of the proceedings taken against him by his dioce san, the Bishop of Exeter. The spacious ball was densely crowded in every part. On the platform were, the Hon. Arthur Kinnaird, the Revs. Thomas Mortimer, T. Binncy, Ebenezer Davis, Dr. Morison, Dr. A. Thomson,—Anslie, James Sherman, Dr. Henderson ' Dr. Conk Evans, Dr. Jenkyn, Dr. Massie, Rev. J. Bakewell, J. Thomson, Watson, J. Smith, and about 200 other ministers and gentlemen. The lion. A. Kinnaird occupied the chair and the meeting was addressed at considerable length by Mr. Shore, and by several other reverend gentlemen. The circumstances of the case, between the Bishop tif Exc. ter and the Rev. Mr. Shore, which occupied exclusively the attention of the meeting, are already familiar to our readers. Several resolutions were adopted; and also a petition to Parliament, praying tier such alterations or ti law as..would prevent any recurrence of such DUrFts a. that followed hy the bishop on this ocealot). • The chair man in the course of the proceedings read a letter from the Bishop of London, to the lion. and Bev. B. Noel, forbidding him to attend.

Price, Wovertree LATEST FOREIGN AND COLONIAL FRANCE The Paris ls,•.pers of Sunday contain several articles which prove the existing and hourly increased alarm for the impending elections. A very thi 7 eatening demonstration was in preparation at the hour of post. The trades were assembling in the Champ de Mars, ostensibly to elect officers for the National Guard from their own body, although it was notorious that the elec tion of officers had closed. Some of their banners bore significantly menacing mottos; one of them was " No more trading of one man in the labour of another." Seizures of arms were made on Thursday in various parts of Paris. The Archbishop of Paris lias authorised a collection in all the churches of his diocese, on Friday, in favour of the wives and children of the Poles who had left France to re-conquer the independence of Poland. ITALY An official bulletin., dat;Eliiiin, April 9th, announces that on the previous day the Piedmontese troops attacked the Austrians in the vicinity of the bridge of Goito, and that after a sharp action, which lasted two hours, the Piedmontese made themselves masters of the position, and captured four pieces of artillery and 2,000 prisoners. joy at publication o f thi s b u ll e ti n pro d uce d th e grea t es t at Milan. As it was the first account received of serious hostilities having been commenced by the King of Sar dinia, and as the position thus successfully carried opened the passage of the Mincio and the road to V-11a Franca, the chief town on the line of communication between Verona and Mantua, a more detailed narrative was anxiously expected; the Palace Marino was besieged by anxious inquiries, and in the course of the evening an official despatch was published, in which the agent of the Provisional Government at the head-quarters of Charles Albert gives his account of the affair. The Provisional Government has received about £BO,OOO in voluntary con tributions in the city of Milan alone, and it has called for 'he payment of the ordinary taxes due on the 20th of May, for the 20th of this month. We do not imagine that the sum above-named has arisen from a forced loan or from contributions exacted by fear, or that the least force will be exerted to procure the pm-payment of the imposts. Both are given with the freest will, almost by acclamation, and more than one head of a noble house has sent in £3,000 or £4,000 as an individual subscription. The Milanese are rich, and they gladly offer a portion of their wealth for the common good. A letter from Berne of the Bth inst. states, that the de legate of the Provisional Government of Milan at Como had demanded a passage for a column of 1,200 Austrian prisoners through the canton of Ticino which the Go vernment of the latter had granted on condition that the canton of the Grisons should likewise allow them to pass through its teritory. The Directory had instructed the Federal Council of War to prepare a report on the orga nization of the army, so that the Confederation be not taken unawares, and he constantly ready to defend, effi ciently and energetically, the neutrality and integrity of Switzerland. It was reported at Berne that the Sardinian Minister had been directed by his Government to demaftd from the Vorort an army of 100,000 men, whom the king would engage in his service, to assist him in driving the Austrians out of Italy. A letter from Mile 4 n, of the Bth inst., states that on the 9th five columns of the Lombardo-Piedmontese army were to cross the Mincio at Goilo and Volta. An expedi tion had left for Tyrol. Palmaro was occupied by the Milanese General Lucchi. Should the Piedmontese suc ceed in passing the Mincio, their intention was to join General Duraudo, who was advancing from Bologna with 6000 Swiss and 4000 volunteers, and there would/ then be a force of 40,000 men operating on the Jell flitik of the Austrians. It was believed that an engagement would be foi,glit on the 9th. It appears from the Bologna papers that Signor Carlo Rusconi has addressed the Pope, inviting the Holy Father to place himself at the head of a great Italian Confederacy, and to assemble a grand General Diet in Rome. The whole of Istria is favourable to the new Venetian Republic, and only awaits an opportunity of declaring its sympathies. AUSTRIA. On the Bth instant another " demonstration" took place at Vitim 4, which fortunately passed off with toler able-tranquillity. It was the object of the mob to reta liate on the Papal Nuncio for the affront offered to the Austrian flag in Rome. The question of the compulsory celibacy of the Romish priesthood has been mooted in the Diet at Pressburg, by an ecclesiastical member. M. Kossuth replied that he was rejoiced to find the subject discussed in such quarters, and that he had received. innumerable letters from the clergy, complaining of the prohibition. The state of trade continues most unsatisfactory. The funds have again fallen, even below the former level ; some failures have taken place, and more serious disasters are anticipated. HOSTILITIES BETWEEN DENMARK BCHLESWIG-HOLSTEIN. The " Hamburg," Captain Brown, arrived at Hull from Hamburgh on Friday. She brought letters and papers to theqtth instant. Extract from a private letter:—" Hostilities commenced between the Danes and the Schleswig-Holstein troops on Sunday, the 9th inst. A very fierce battle w a s f oug ht near Flensburg, and the Danes being much stronger in number, and having a great power of cavalry and artil lery, hare defeated the Schleswig-Holstein army, which has retreated towards Rendsburg. The loss of life has been very great on both sides. but the details are not known yet. The Danes have entered the city of Schles wig. A great number of students who had volunteered their services have been put to death without mercy by the Danish soldiers. The Prussian and Hanoverians are nearing in masses of troops to assist the Schleswickers. The Duke of Augustenburg and Prince Waldemar of Augustenburg have passed through Hamburgh and one to Rendsburg, being bearers of orders from Berlin, for the Prussian troops to advance on Schleswig." Another pri vate letter states two thousand men to have been slaugh tered on each side. The forces of the Danes are said to amount to nearly 20,000 men, with fifty pieces of cannon : the men are full of seal for their cause. If the Prussians pass out of Hol stein' the Danes will no d ou bt a tt ac k t h em. The result of the collision sufficiently proves that all that is needed to bring this knotty question to a final set tlement is to leave the King of Denmark to settle his own affairs with his own subjects. We entertain no doubt that the sturdy little Danish army is more than a match for any force the disaffected party in the duchies can mus ter; and in the first action which has taken place the lat ter have been effectually defeated. It is generally rumoured at Hamburgh that the Prus sians are to advance against the Danes in earnest ; but it is said that the object of the Cabinet of Berlin is only to prevent the Danes from acting on the offensive until the various governments have had an opportunity of maturely considering the question of peace and war. Affairs in Hamburgh still bear the gloomiest aspect, and credit has sustained a shock from which it will not speedily recover. A telegraphic report was received from Hull on Sunday night stating that the King of Denmark has replied to the Prussian deputation that if they entered Schleswig he should declare war against Prussia. Auxiliaries have already entered Schleswig, a det ac h. ment having been stationed at Sorghruce. The Danish detachment stationed theie, on perceiving the Prussians immediately ran away, leaving their arms behind them which were taken to Konsberg. At Glyksburgh, on Sa. turday, a skirmish took place, the 14th Carsullion with two cannon having attempted to prevent the landing the Danes. '1 'IU3 was successful, and the steamer Gayson was alines disabled. The Rendsburgh daily paper states that thl le was 8,000 instead of 18,000. Huinburgh, 13th April. The early train from Rendsburgh brings news that the Danes have again evacuated Eckerford and Kaveen, and confirms the news that the Danes had advanced into Schlegswig with 2000 men. Copenhagen, 11th April. The insurgents stationed at Bau and Kinsau, numbering about 1000 men, were attacked and compelled to abandon their position and retire to Kinsau, where a hot conflict took They suffered dreadfully from the fire of the Danes' gun-boats. They then occupied the iron-foundery in front of the town, and, firing from the windows, did serious damage to the 6th Dragoon regiment. The gun boats then directed their firing to the building, and com pelled them to leave it, and those who did not fall were obliged to surrender. At hall-past three o'clock the Danes entered Rendsburgli amidst, general acclamation. The surrender has caused the destruction of the enemy's advanced guard. 714 men were taken prisoners and the rest killed. On the Danish side, by official reports, there were about 100 killed and wounded. The cologne Gazette of the 15th. publishes a long as count of the battle at Batt, between the Danes and the • thabitants of the two duchies , and concludes a s f o ll ows the Eider to Konigsan )intry is open to du The duchy of Sell is in the enen.y's they have not yet taken possession. iger a field of battle: there are none but eenqucrors, fugitives, and an insulted population. The loss of human life is not yet accurately ascertained : it is said there are about 1.100 killed on both sides. The noblest'families have lost their sons and brothers. The corps of students from Kiel, 159 young men have been altogether cut up. The number of the Prussian troops now assembled in Rendsburg is 8700. No Prussian cavalry has as yet arrived in the duchies. Danes even whe The Duchy is no 1 Lieut. Colonel Defies died of fever at Gibraltar, on the nth ult., and was interred with all the honours due to his rank. Five of the men under him have also fallen tic. titns to the fever.
