The Lnglish papers are almost completely
cuwployed in discussing the rights of the
House of Commonsidn the cases of Mr. Joun
Gare Joxes and Sir Fraxcis Burperr.
LThe Courier, a ministerial paper, denies tie
right which the House has taken in the case
of Jones, of imprisoning generally for libels,
for an indefinite period without trizl. With
regard to Sir Francis Burdett, the doubts ex
ist about the propriety of breaking forcibly in
‘o his house, for the purposc of taking Fim to
the Tower. The opiuion ol oir Vicary
Gibbs, the Attornev-Genoral. woe not con
sidered decisive in itsell; althou: b uj n tnis
authority it was that the Sere-mt at Arms
preceeded. Though the Lest iriends of Siv
Francis Burdett unejuiveciliy disupprove ol
bis resistance to the Speaker’'s warrant; yet
the question as to the right of forcibly enter
ing his house was not thereby conceded.
Sir Francis has givea a month’s notice to
, the Speaker thdt he sheli commence two
' suits azuinst him, one for fulse imprisonment
¢ and the other for forcibiy breakiu; into his
g house.

morning of life she was called to the surrender of ull
those pleasing prospects of future scenes and antici

to brighten and allure in so many various ways; vet
in that surrender she manifested a conscious, firm,
and holy resignation to the will of all-ruling Heaven,

with her hands firuly fixed in the skies—-with a fiuil
