LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 23.
Is the House of Lords yesterday the Bishopric of
Manchester Bill passed through committee, an
amendment proposed by Lord RaDESDALL being
negatived by a majority of 30.
In the House of Commons, the third reading of the
Belfast Improvement Bill was carried by a majority
of 50, and Mr. MUNTZ's motion for a committee on
the copper duties negatived by one of 40.—0 n Mr.
P. ScRoPE'S motion on the subject of waste lauds in
Ireland, the house was counted out.

Ws must indulge this morning in a piece ofromanc.
a brief narrative of the imaginative kind; for readers
will surely admit that it passes ail the bounds of
reality. Besides, were the story told as simple fact,
it would be too outrageous to decency, to morals, and
to modesty, and would be set down as a tale, beyond
the license of even an English novelist; and as one of
those, in which the disordered imagination of French
romancers do revel and indulge to the outraging of
good feeling and good taste.
There was once upon a time a young princess who
mounted early upon the throne of her fathers, and
who was particularly patronised and protected by a
neighbouring monarch, a relative, and one who styled
himself the head of the family. This monarch had
always in view the procuring for one of his own sons
so rich an heritage ; but as the world, both of people
and of potentates, exclaimed against the unfairness
and danger of such an absorption of two kingdoms into
one, the old monarch dared not attempt the thing
directly. The queen, however, had one younger sister,
and to this princess the old monarch affianced his
eon, being allowed to affiance him on the understand-
ing, that the marriage should not take place till the
queen herseltwas first married and had children.
There were many suitors of course for the hand of
so rich and so powerful a queen. But the crafty old
monarch found objections to every one, affronted and
set aside suitor after suitor, until there remained
merely an idiot youth, devoid of mind and of man-
hood, such a husband as no poor girl in all the
queen's wide dominions would have accepted.
But the poor queen was told that she
must have this husband, or none at all.
Her mother aided in menacing and reducing
the poor young queen to this, for her mother
was the gossip and accomplice of the amity
old king. And at last, at dead of night, amid aura
and anguish, the marriages of the younger princess
the son of the crafty old monarch, and of the cloven
to the idiot youth, were solemnised.
The result was what every one foresaw, and every
one expected. The young queen, deceived, took
an insuperable disgust to the husband that had
beeu imposed upon her, and he, poor fool, hid him-
self from public eye, half-perverse, hallpenitent.
The young queen, outraged, declared that she would
have a divorce, and in this determination she was
spirited and advised by a young general, whom she
treated as a Mend, and who evidently bad the greatest
influence over her.
I At the first mention of a divorce, the crafty old
king fell into the moat dreadful rage, for he saw in
the queen's separation from her idiot husband, and
in her espousal of another prince, the prospect of his
son and daughter-in-law being cut off from the
rich succession. One should think that the old
king, on being made aware of the horrible fate to
which he had consigned the young queen, would
I have relented, and for the sake of the family, of royal
example, and of morals in general, would have sanc-
tioned a divorce.
But no, he determined, on the contrary, that the
young queen should remain linked to her odious hue-
band ; and he sent the queen's mother herself as an
emissary to the high priest, who alone can dissolve
marriages, by no means to dissolve this one, because,
said the emissary, this would hand over a catholic
country to a protestant prince.
For fear, however, lest this should prove ineffec-
tual, and lest the young queen, disowning the powerobi
of the high priest to condemn her to misery,
appeal to the nation, and have a divores by oat d
parliament, BS HENRY VIII. had, the crafty old
monarch sent an emissary to the queen's comet to
endeavour to make an arrangement in his interests.
This emissary was to represent to the young
queen, that if she defied this crafty old monarch, and
allied with his enemies, that he in turn would excite
her domestic enemies, and that he was powerful
enough to overthrow her, even by means of her own '
army. The young queen was very much terrified by
these threats ; and the young general, her counsellor,
was also very much terrified, because he had good

queen should give up all ideas of divorce, but remain,
In the eye of mu, united in marriage to the idiot
youth. Moreover, that he, wearing the title of king,
should continue to inhabit a suite of apartments in the
royal palace, and that wealth and honours should be
allotted sufficient to content him. At the same
time, it was hinted, that nothing need prevent
her) majesty from leading a domestic life
such as many kings and queens, especially in the olden
time, were wont to lead, and such as her majesty's
mother had not shrunk from. In plain English, the
queen might have lovers, nay, might take her pru-
dent counsellor for a paramour if she pleased—the
crafty and moral old king would wink at the irregu-
larity. And in this manner every person and every
interest would be satisfied. Her majesty might lead
as joyous a life as CATEIERINE 11. The army should re-
main faithful to her, and her ladies of honour should no
longer plot. The family ambassador would act major-
domo of the court, and share its influence with the
favourite. A disputed succession was impossible. No
legitimate heir to the throne could exist, save the
son and daughter-in-law of the crafty old king. And
it was proposed instantly to promulgate a solemn
decree to this effect.
We hope one day to publish a supplementary chap-
ter of this romance, relating how the offer was
indignantly rejected, how a divorce took place, how
mortified was the crafty old king, and how the young
queen was happy. But for the present we must
leave the dinsuement uncertain.

WE bear from many quarters a complaint of want
of candidates for the approaching election; and we
have reason to believe that this want has been felt by
those in London who have been accustomed, on behalf
of their respective political parties, to provide can-
didates for places unable or unwilling to assist them-
selves. It doubtless arises from the unexciting con-
dition into which mere party politics have fallen, and
from the dissensions which have But-divided the
Parties themselves, and inflamed the dissidents
against each other almost as much as against
their former opponents. A spirit of peace
and acconunodation is moreover understood to
exist amongst the leaders of at least two of the
existing political combinations; and it is believed
by many sagacious speculators on future contingen-
cies, that those leaders will not be very greatly dis-
appointed with the result of the general election, if it
should compel them to coalesce for the protection of
the country from the weakness and mischief of an
ultra-administration. At all events, there never was
so little of the bustle, the interest, or the excitement
of a general election as at present. Here we arc gene-
rally supposed to be within six weeks of its occur-
rence, andthe City of London, which always first elects
its representatives, is without preparation, and no
one knows whether its representation is to be quietly
divided between two conservatives and two liberals,
or whether the premier will consent—for thus much
has oozed out, that upon Lord JOHN RUSSELL the
responsibility of the decision rests—to allow four
liberal candidates to be launched; that is, if they
can (after all the shilly-shallying that has taken
place) be found. Indeed, were it not for Bucks and
Mr. DisinsEnt (who is there doing his work like a
man really in earnest, and after a fashion worthy of
imitation in other quarters), we should be unable to
call from the local papers anything more serious than
mere electioneering gossip.
This comparative apathy is very unfortunate for
the liberal party, for they have the strongest possible
motive for exertion; they have a ministry of their
way of thinking without a majority of their way
of thinking, and it is their duty, as it ought to be
their pleasure, to lose no opportunity of converting
their minority into a majority. There are, it is true,
differences of opinion amongst them ; bit there are
far more serious differences of opinion amongst their
opponents. The PEEL and the BENTINCH divisions
of the conservative party are far wider apart than the
ministerial educationists and the ministerial anti-
educationists. Yet in many places we may see the
latter losing the opportunity afforded them by the
split among the former. In the borough of Cam-
bridge, for instance, what decent, creditable reason ran
be given for the disunion that prevails amongst
the friends of Mr. ADAIR and Mr. CAMPBELL? We
cannot imagine the smallest apology for the schism,
which thus threatens to return Mr. ADAIR with a
conservative. At Newcastle-upon-Tyne, also, the
pure whig party (the friends of Mr. ORD) hesitate
to join their more liberal friends in proposing two
liberals, and are allowing Mr. HODGSON HINDE in
the interval they are taking to make up their minds,
to strengthen his position, an advantage that very
crafty gentleman will not, they may be sure, allow
to escape him. Surely the liberals of Newcastle ,
might by this time have taken a lesson from
what has passed in North Northumberland,
where, by the exertions of the liberal party,
Sir GEORGE GREY is now considered secure,
notwithstanding influences far more powerful than
any Mr. HINDE can bring to bear on their town.
A better choice than the gentleman (Mr. W. H.
WATSON, the present member for Kinsale) who has
been so repeatedly spoken of as the second liberal
candidate, the Newcastle liberals could not make;
but then union, and concord, and activity, and
earnestness, amongst all classes of liberals, are
indispensable to induce Mr. WATSON, who at
Kinsale has a certain seat, to plunge into a con-
test at Newcastle, nearly connected with that
town though he be. So, too, at Leeds, the con-
test has not, it seems, to be between the liberals
and the conservatives, but between the liberals!
And Mr. ALDAM has to be cashiered, because,
we suppose, every vote he has given in par-
liament has accorded with his speeches on the hust-
ings! This is really a melancholy instance of political
ingratitude; the only thing satisfactory in it is the
manner in which Mr. ALDAM has acted throughout
the discussions, which have ended in his retirement.
There is, of course, time yet to restore concord,
and to revive zeal amongst the liberal party at these
and other places; but if we have to witness success
consequent on the restoration and revival, further time
must not be lost.

Timm is every reason to believe that the ministers
of the King of PRUSSIA will be defeated in their at-
tempt to make constitutional forms a stalking horse
for despotic power. The proceedings of the Legisla-
tive Assembly in Berlin sufficiently disprove the
notion prevalent in France and England that the
Germans are deficient in political education. Some
of the leaders have displayed not only oratorical
power, but parliamentary tact of the first order.
The most characteristic feature of the assembly, how-
ever, is peculiarly national, and consequently new to
the other countries of Europe before whom it is now
for the first time displayed. A grave irony, often
bordering on the humorous, is the favourite weapon
of the opposition speakers. The spirit of the jesting
stoic JEAN PAUL, only sufficiently subdued to be in
keeping with the practical business objects of the
assembly, appears to possess them. This weapon was
wielded with triumphant success against M. VON
SAVIONY, the distinguished historian of Roman law
in the middle ages. This minister's laboured attempt
to explain away the constitutional pledges of the late
King almost justified Bentham's sneer, when he said,
that M. VON.SAVIONY would attempt to palm off a
history of law upon a nation as a sufficient substitute
for laws. His assumptions and sophisms were an-
swered by a running commentary of the most sarcastic
humour, couched in language of grave respect, to
which he did not venture a rejoinder. And the vote
of the chamber, in spite of his efforts, was to petition
the King to acknowledge himself bound to convoke a
legislative assembly, and submit the state expendi-
, tare to its control, not as a matter of favour but of
I right.
Another marked feature of these maiden debates
is the absence of any truckling to expediency. That
favourite virtue of the legislative assemblies of
countries where the power of the people's
representatives has been unequivocally recognised
would be out of place in Prussia as at present cir-
cumstanced. It is utterly hopeless to gain the royal
assent to the greater part of the assembly's votes.
Many propositions rejected by large majorities in the
assembly will, nevertheless, be carried into execu-
tion by irresponsible ministers. This being the
case, any concessions on the part of government,
in the details of a particular measure that might
be gained by avoiding assertions of principles
and opinions unpalatable at court, would be dearly
purchased OA contributing to establish precedents in

favour of despotic claims. The elective members of
the Diet, by the frank straffibtforwardness of their
proceedings, have baffled official sophistry and airs of
authority. Instead of following up flaming speeches
by tame votes, the opposition deputies have coolly
and quietly parried the onslaughts of ministers,
and reserved their strength for the decisive moment
of the division. To this tactic M. DUMBER°, the Mi-
nister of Finance, succumbed, when, after ex-
patiating triumphantly on the advantages of land-
credits, banks, railways, and the substitution of notes
for exchequer bills, he was insidiously led into a his-
tory of existing financial complications, and foul*
when it was too late, that, from the impossibility ef
deciding on the spur of the moment what might and
what might riot be safely told, it was better to break
off in the middle of his speech, leaving everything
wrapt in suspicions; half-explanation, than to pro
the discussion he had provoked. The confession ef
the Finance Minister, that the notes of the revival
Prussian bank are devoid of all guarantee, notwith-
standing the intimation printed on them that they an
to be taken by all government receivers, has made a
deep impression, scarcely second to that made by the
protestant Jesuitism of Count ARNIM, the Prussian
GLADSTONE, in the debates on religious liberty.
To appreciate adequately the moral courage of the
Prussian opposition, it must be kept in view that
every man of them has staked his fortune and free-
dom on every attack upon the minister to which he
has given his support. They are only backed by the
approval of their unorganised fellow-countrymen.
Yet, that is much; for though Prussia be a great mili-
tary power, the soldiers by profession and for life
form numerically a comparatively small proportion
of its army. The admissions extorted from ministers
respecting the state of the national finances, and their
own views of the people's constitutional rights, and of
religious toleration, are so damaging, that even the
royal mind must feel them. By their blundering so-
phistry and over-refinements, they have brought the
crown into immediate collision with the representa-
tives of the nation, leaving the king no apparent
alternative but to choose between his ministers and
his diet. The approaching recess will afford his
Majesty leisure to solve this knotty problem.
These practical illustrations of the advantages of a
centralised national legislation, have rivetted the eyes
of all Germany on Berlin. And as if to heighten the at-
tractiveness of the picture by force of contrast,the little
powers among which the country has been parcelled
out, are busy breaking it up into minute subdivisions,
such as have not been known since the dissolution
of the Holy Roman Empire. The sale of provisions,
the most important branch of internal trade, is inter-
dicted in so singular a manner, that the result, should
the at present promising harvest fail to any extent,
can with difficulty be imagined. The decrees against
exporting grain from the States of the Zollverein
have been widely circulated ; but our readers may
have yet to learn that equally stringent prohibitions
are enforced by one state of the union against
another; and that even towns have established a
similar non - intercourse system against neigh-
bouring towns or the adjacent country. The old
ci-derant cities of the empire have taken the lead, and
it appears that the bye-laws of these corporations can
set the regulations of the Zollverein respecting the
internal traffic of the associated states at defiance.
Mayence has just supplied a curious illustration of
this. When the decrees of the minor German states,
prohibiting the exportation of grain (by which ie
meant its circulation between these little fragments
of Germany), appeared in the gazettes of their mul-
titudinous capitals, it was generally understood that
cargoes of grain, on board vessels, should be allowed
to proceed to their original places of destination.
Large quantities of corn, purchased by the govern-
ments of the tipper Rhine, or by merchants in various
cities, were on their way from Holland. A vessel,
laden in part with grain, was ordered to discharge at
Mayence, the grain to be re-shipped for its ulti-
mate destination. The sacks were accordingly
landed on one of the wooden projections along-
side of which steamers touching at Mayence
are brought; but, when about to be re-shipped,
they were seized by the police, and the par-
ties to whom they were consigned fined for a
contravention of the law. As a necessary consequence
of this violation of property, parties in Holland, having
corn on the Rhine, have sent orders to the skippers
to bring it back. Trade is in abeyance : the dealers
who have hitherto medinted between the growers
and consumers of grain and other farm produce. are
proscribed, and forced to give up their business.
Farmers are cultivating rape, hemp, or any seed,
rather than corn, of which they are not masters after
they have housed it. The unwise interference of local
authorities in preparing a famine by artificial means ;
and the Zollverein is virtually placed beyond the pale
of nations, for what is the use of contracting treaties
with a power which cannot fulfil its engagements P
All this only tends to double the interest with
whichthe educated and intelligent classes in Germany
watch the progress of the experiment of establish-
ing a real national government at Berlin. A saga-
cious and resolute government in Prussia would
find the petty states suing to be incorporated into
the monarchy. The predominating wish of national
politicians in Germany in to become one nation, under
a strong government, with adequate guarantees for
the rights of the subject. A Prussian sovereign broke
up the German empire when it had become a mere
name for Austrian despotism ; a Prussian people may
yet reconstruct the German state on a more equitable
and lasting basis.

We have received our Paris and Brussels corre-
spondence of the 21st. The former contains no news
of moment. Our Brussels correspondent informs
us that it is now quite certain that M. Rogier has
been officially. and formally entrusted by his Majesty
with the task of forming a new administration. The
journals of his party add that he will have his list
of the members of the new cabinet duly prepared
before the return of the King from London, whither
hie Majesty is going to-morrow, and whence he will
return, according to present arrangements, on or
before Monday next ; at all events, his stay will be a
very short one. It is understood that his Majesty's
visit to England is not totally unconnected with re-
cent events in Portugal. He is considerably better
in health.

AUX CAYES (HAITI), MAY 20.
The motion that 45,000 dollars should be placed at
the disposal of the Secretary of State to defray the funeral
expenses of the late President Riche met with unexpected
opposition in the Representative Chamber. It pawed, how-
ever, after a rather angry discussion. Ministers awls a
cabinet question of the motion, and declared their resolution
to stand or fall with it. M. Dupuy said: "We are met
here in peace. Without Riche we would not be here. Yet
' you demur to paying this slight tribute to his memory." M.
Ardouin said : " The vote asked is a vote of confidence in
the ministry ; if you refuse it we will make way for other
eitirans." _ _

The Secretary of the Rome Department end Agriculture
is at present visiting the principal towns ef the republic in
the Lord Elgin steamer.. It is supposed that his object is to
see that the law of April I, respecting the triage of coffee, is
canted into effect. An impression appears to hare pre.
veiled that the law would not be rigorously enforced
this season' and government requires to be on the alert to
counteract the negligence which is the consequence. The
deliveries Sr. thus retarded, and prices are rising. -a tendency
favoured by the circumstance that the lest crop is almost all
sold. The present crop is said to be extremely promising.
A bill submitted by ministers to the chambers to empower
government to authorise the importation of food free of
duty, and prohibit the exportation, was passed without dis-
cussion.

An objection was offered in the Representative Chamber
to the measure for paying a premium on capitals
invested in the construction of central manufactories—
that the country was too poor to pay them and
the French indemnity at the same time. Id, drdouin
replied that the outlay which called central manufactories
into existence would enable the country to earn wherewithal
to pay the indemnity. "It is," he said, "an axiom of
political economy, that to earn money you must first
spend it."

The adjourned debate on the Jews was resumed in the cued
chamber to-day. The chamber voted by a majority of one
the exclusion of the Jews from the provincial diet, and of
course, from the general diet. Yesterday a majority weed
not as ministers asked them, that Jews should be admitted
to become professors of mathematics, natural hietory,snd
medicine, but that they should be capable of holding all
university professorships except those of theology. Amongst
other votes taken this day was one in favour of a petition to
the King to establish a Jewish chair of theology in one of
the universities. Fancy Sir Robert Inglis in the act of
hearing such a proposal made in the House of
Commons with reference to Oxford or Cambridge!
As a. set-off to this liberal vote there was one
against admitting Jews as teachers in elementary shoes.
[fdy first writing muter, rest his soul, was a Jew.' M. Von
eekerath's amendment in favour of the complete man-
pation of the Jews comes on to morrow. The Prot Chamber
is also busied with Jewish maters. According to an oel-

with increased vigour. The newly.restored windows, which

PORTUG AL. The Nautilus propeller arrived
yesterday morning at Liverpool. She left bebop on the 156,
and when in the mouth of the Tagus received a despatch foe
government. She bring,. news that Sada Bandies and the
insurgents of Setubal have submitted and acknowledge the
Queen's authority. It was announced on the 14th that they
had surrendered their areas to Vinhaes and the allies con-
jointly. The Jackal war-steamer arrived same day free
Oporto, with intelligence that the junta positively refused*
submit, and had rejected the complete amnesty. The receipt
of this account of the junta's contumacy would quicken Ad-
miral Parker's movemenei, and it was believed that there
would be no real resistance, and that upon the first
serious shot being fired against the town they will surrender.
Admiral Parker, it appears, has strongly mom Laded Or

deavour without delay to enter Oporto. That city is at this
moment effectually surrounded. General Concha's array of
10,000 to 12,000 men was close to Oporto, while SelduU's
and Cesare divisions, more than 8,000 strong, were akm
miles distant to the south of the Douro. The second Spanish
General, Mendes Vigo, was at Viana, 37 miles north of
Oporto, having reinforced the other garrison of Valence
which he has left behind him, and the bar of the Douro we
blockaded by the combined squadron. The discount on
1,8

1,800. The dearth at bread stuffs, and consequent disuse
continue.

LONDON DIOCESAN BOARD OF EDUCATION.
The annual meeting of this society was held pester-
:sat the offices in Pall mall. The Bishop of London pro.
The CHAIRMAN. in opening the proceedings, described
the present as a great educational crisis, the remelt of
which was dependent upon the friends of the &suit
—whether they would conduce to the interests of the
church and the country, or whether they would take
a backwera step is their efforts to pi...serve the connexiam
between religion. and secular education and the matt
tanance of that intimate union between the two, vadat
he might better call a fusion, for lie maintained that the only
education which might be called Christian was that formed
of an union of the religious and the secular. A great event
had taken place during the last year in the publication and
adoption of the minutes of the council upon education.
What would be its ultimate results it was impossible to
foresee, but still they might predict, with a certain degree of
confidence, that if the church was true to herself, end put
forth bee energies, the result would be beneficial
to the church herself, through her to the interests
at Christianity in this country, and therefore to
the welfare of the country herself. But it was obvious
that, in order to realise such results, increased exertions
mast be made by the church, to feeder the present system
as perfect as was necessary, in order to secure the co-opera-
tion of the government of the country. In fact, he thought
that one of the most striking features of the government
Isn was the Christian prudence which marked it, and that
it rendered a certain degree of efficiency in existing schools
seceware to secure any assistance from public resources.
Thee coidd scarcely imagine a stronger stimulus than that
prennon was calculated to give to the exertions in the cause.
Be looked with some degree of satisfaction to one of the
soot important features of the scheme, which, before the
yak~aeon of the minutes, marked the operations of the
London diocesan board ; he meant that of pupil teachers ;
for though they {the board) would not arrogate to them-
eless* the origin of that branch of the measure,
still it could not be denied that they had practised the
system before it was proposed by the government; and it
gays him great pleasure to see it adopted by them. They
(the board) had every reason, as far as their operations had
es yet Weeded, to be satisfied with their pupil teacher', spit
to conceived that they should do everything in their power
Murry out the system. The peculiar wants of the diocese
he had so often described on other oecasions,as to resider any
pement allusion to the subject unnecessary. In the course
that year, the committee had put forward proposals for the
erection of schools it/ order to meet that want. The appeal
Ili& they had made to the public in furtherance of these
=had not, however, been respended to in that degree
be hoped would be the case when the whole plan came
tube unidered. It was tot merely a question of whether
sislant funds would be raised by the friends of
Ws bard in the metropolis, but on the forma.
Ihn at that fund depended the posaibility of their
Wise ajast measure of government aid. There was one
ban tithe measure proposteiby the board which he coe-
dited% be particularly deterring of support. After all the
didemeen which had been made to place within the pale
l idiom in
education, the almost countless number of poor
in the metropolis ' - after all the exertions of the Ba-
llad Society, and in other quarters, there were still thru-
m's at that 'auforturiate dame, not only in a state of igno-
reue,but leading a life of depravity, caused by the example
aftkir parents, who purposely withheld from them those
ahrlngla of which they stood in so much need. It was in
neswieeme of those considerations that the board keel pm.
pipi_a remedy for the evil. At the same time, he edimme-
Wipe the great assistance afforded to the eau* by the
tend rebook, which he considered metemmtelle reneithill he

win he more immediate connexion with the idetredillim.lit

le Mewing the example which had been theses" fer that '
thendment of their exertions was one of tie mast tespsrtent
.et the same time that it was the mot dlllienbt of any.
Ws lordship concluded by expressing his acknowledgments
la the government (or the important aid which they offered
letbsesuse, and by an earnest appeal to the clergy and
WV( the country, to tend it their support.
Bosoms, the bon. secretary, then read the report.
ski was of considerable length, entering fully into
tienatare of the society's past exertions and their prospects
teribe &tare. Its principal topics were the propos.gse

NIMBI to pupil teacher, that as it would be

Wig ass done to retain parents, that it would be adven
Seems if twelve children should be selected and paid; as
lied issaiton, at 51. per annum, so that they would lot kept
Vein cgs when they would be ready for the operation of

stewed to the establishment of schools for the very t
dam; and ft had been ascertained, that with to the
Meek ed Ragland wheels, their number was altogether
espeepartimata to the number of children who ought to
Mitef drily instruction. The report then proceeded to
plea which the society had forded for the extension
el einteese in the metropolis, which was to build fifty new
ifide Sid tans bring 15,000 children under daily untrue-
smoke ism to be defrayed by local subscriptions, assistance

JOURNEYMEN DURRIERs' BENEVOLENT INSTITU-
MON.—The first annual meeting of the members of this
institution, which was established for the relief of aged and
iaarm journeyman currier,, and ultimately to provide an
asylum for their reception, was held last evening at the
Mechanics' Institution, Southampton-buildings. Mr. E.
Grant presided. The committee is their report con-
, gratulated the society on the support which they had met
with during the year, which they considered would prove of
sonsiderable benefit to the class in question. They had Ur-
iodated addresses to all the employers in the trade in London
—having previously received support only from jour-
neymen—and felt gratified in being able to state
that a response had been made to their call,
sad that every encouragement had been given them
to go forward. The committee regretted that the pre-
sent depression of trade, combined with the high price of
provisions, had prevented a great number of the members
frompaying up their subscriptions, which they (the com-
mitter) recommended should be collected weekly where
practicable. The report was adopted, and was followed by
the transaction of some routine business. The receipts dur-
ing the year amounted to 1311., which was increased by •
donation of 101. from the chairman, and some contributions
from other sources. It was stated that there would be no
eharitable disbursements until the fund amounted to 5001.
THE ETHNOLOGICAL SOCIETY held its annual
aiteeting at the offices in Sackville street, Dr. Pritchard, the
president, in the chair. The report stated that the loss of
three
members by death, and four others who had resigned,
was much to be regretted, the more so because the diminu-
tion thus caused in the number of members rendered it im-
probable that the council should be able, as proposed, to
meet fortnightly, instead of monthly, as at present. There
was, however, yet time, before November, when the session
commenced, for a sufficient increase of members. The so-
ciety now consisted of 69 members. The society's journal
was progressing slowly but most satisfactorily. The augmen
tation of the library was an object highly desirable ; and as
the council had no funds at their disposal for that purpose,
they renewed their invitation to the members to make volun-
tary contributions. The balance sheet showed that the total
receipts had been 3071. lie. 7d, and the expenditure
2751. 4s. 5d., leaving a balance of 321. 10s. 2d. The presi-
dent read his usual annual address, which he opeted by
saying that he thought, from the little interest taken in it,
the nature of the science of ethnology was not properly un-
derstood. He then gave a long account of what had been
done by recent writers towards the advancement of the
science, and bow the late discoveries in Egyptian hiero-
glyphics and other ancient inscriptions bore upon that ad-
vancement. After the address, which, together with the
report of the council, was unanimously ordered to be printed,
eight new councillors were elected in place of the like num-
ber going out by rotation.
MEETING OF IRISH BOROUGH MEMBERS.—The re-
presentatives of the Irish boroughs were invited to attend a
meeting on Monday, at the Insh offices, for the purpose of
considering the provisions of a bill for shortening the dura-
tion of borough elections in Ireland. drawn by the solicitor-
general for that country, Mr. J. H. Monahan. The meeting
took place, sad was fully attended.—Mr. Labouchere stated
that his reason for ceiling the gentlemen together was, that ,
they might hear an explanation from the solicitor-general as
to the character and objects of the bill.—Mr. Monahan then,
at considerable length, explained the principles, and went
through all the details of the bill, of which only • few MS.
copies were circulated. The great object was to diminish
the extravagant expenses incurred at borough elections, to
prevent tumultuous and violent assemblages of people, and
especially of those who did not enjoy the right of voting, and
the other evil consequences necessarily attendant upon col-
lecting multitudes or people in an exestedstate. The propo-
sition was, that there should be one nomination day and one
polling day—five polling places to be erected in each borough.
—Sr Ito Ferguson, on being appealed to, expressed
himself unrifled with the measure ; and so did a majority of
the gentlemen present.—Mr. Cecil Lawless expressed some
distrust as to the effect of this measure upon the popular
party in Ireland, bat would not oppose it Roche (Cork
county, who, by the way, was irregularly present) objected
to the bill, on the grounds that it would reduce the influence
in elections of the non-electors, and that the measure &hive-
thee was hasty and immature.—lmmediate notice is to be
given of the introduction of the bill.—Mr. Monahan, in the
course of conversation, declared that he bad never enter-
tained the notion of standing for the borough of Sligo, and
that the laments circulated in some newspapers as to his in-
tention of so doing were " all moonshine."
THE DAGENHAM MURDER.—Yesterday large pla-
cards were exhibited at all the station-houses of the metro-
polis, and also posted in other piney., offering a reward of
501. for the apprehension of William Persons, police ser-
jeant, and Isaac Hickton, police-constable, lately in the K
division, charged with conspiracy and perjury at the inquest
held at Dagenham, in the county of Easel, upon the body
of George Clark, a police-constable, who was brutally mur-
dered on the 29th of June, 1846. The placard states that
" Her Majesty's government will give the above reward to
any person who shall give such information as will lead to
the apprehension of these men, or a proportion of it for the
apprehension of either of them." Parsons is described as
being thirty years of age, sft. 7lin. high, fresh complexion,
small grey eyes, sandy hair and whiskers, much freckled,
welts upright, and is well proportioned; by trade a miller,
and born in St. Peter's, Norwich. Hidden is described as
being thirty-three years of age, Mt. 911 n. high, fair cora-
plemon, grey eyes, light brown hair, email sandy whiskers,
round-shouldered, draws his mouth on one side when talk-
ing, especially when excited ; by trade a currier, and was
employed at • tanner's at Halscowen, neer Birmingham,
about three months since, and born in Warbus, Derby.
SHARPERS OUTDONE.—OR Wednesday last, about
noon, as Mr. John Harris, a respectable Suffolk farmer, was
standing on the north side of St. Plllll'. and silently con-
templating the beauty and grandeur of that splendid edifice,
his attention was somewhat arrested by a person of re-
spectable appearance, who stood close to him, and who,
evidently addressing him, exclaimed, " Eh, Loord, beast it
be a loin building." Mr. Harris replied in the affirmative,
and the fellow at once asked him if he had not come out of
Suffolk ? This question was also answered in the affirma-
tive, and the man instantly said that he was a native of that
county, and talked about different parts of it with much
apparent freedom. He then proposed a walk as far as
Hyde Park-corner, to view the statue of the Duke of
Wellington, which, he said, he understood from some
of his friends in town, was well worth seeing, and Mr.
Harris having no particular engagement, and not having
previously seen the statue, said he had no objection to
accompany him that far. They accordingly walked toge-
ther to Hyde Park-corner, and having spent some time
in gazing at the statue, they bent their course along
Constitution-hill : they neat viewed Buckingham Palace, the
Horse Guards, Westminster Abbey, and the Houses of Lords
and Commons, and ultimately crossed Westminster Bridge,
to go to the Borough.. In the London-road Mr. Harns's
acquaintance recommended some refreshments, and took
Mr. Harris into the Duke of York public-house, close by ;
there they had some ale, and were joined by a third person.
The subject of the danger of carrying large sums of money
about the person in London, from the great number of
thieves who congregated in the streets, was started, and by
great ingenuity and tact the sharpen, for such they were,
succeeded in learning from Mr. Harris that he had upon his
person thirty-five sovereigns and five 51. notes. One of the
fellows, the person whom he had met in St. Paul's, then
offered to put • similar amount of money in a bag provided
Mr. Harris agreed to do the mate, and leave all in ha care.
The proposition appeared so fair and so di-interested on the
port of a stranger, that Mr. Mania at once consented to
comply with it, and • canvass bag was produced. The
stranger counted out what appeared to be real sove-
reigns, and five notes, which seemed to be for U. each, and,
having put all into a green silk purse, deposited the latter
in the canvas bag. Mr. Harris in his turn did the same,
but the instant he placed his purse in the bag he was seized
with a strong misgiving that ha was about to be done,
and fortunately seized fast hold of the beg itself. The par-
ties made a great effort to get it away from him, but he kept
fast hold, and one of them exhibited • second bag, and
exclaimed that it was the one that contained the money.
The object of having the second bag was clearly to ring the
changes as soon as ?dr. Harris placed hie money in one, and
instead of the bag with the money, they would carefully
place in his pocket one containing a few pence, or farthings,
perhaps, and pieces of paper. Mr. Barns was fortunately
not thrown of his guard by the production of the *woad
bag. He carefully grasped. and held the first, and having
disengaged himself from his new asuelates, he rushed into
the strata to look out for a policeman to give the parties in
charge. They, however. were out of the place nearly as
quirt as himself, and scampered off in different directions.
On seeing
.a policeman, Mr. Harris made him acquainted
with the circumstances, and the officer having ascertained
that the thieves had started, took him to the station-house,
where he gave a most accurate description of them ; they en
the parties who succeeded a few days before in the City
in tricking acme
a countryman out of a large sum of money. to the
present instance. however, they were not only disappointed
in their object, but obliged to submit to a loss; for in the
green purse in which the thirty-five counterfeit sovereigns
and the five " Bank of Elegance" notes were placed, there
were also eleven good shillings; so that instud of Isaias
his 501., which, by the way, he was within an see of doing,
he was a coiner by the attempt of eleven shillings and sun-
dry treats in the course of the day.
INQUEST YESTERDAY.—JUMPING INTO A BOILER,
—Before Mr. William Payne, at Bethlehem Hospital, rela-
tive to the death of Sarah Forded, aged 45 years, lath an

Ricluird Heaketh, of Brighton, examined—l have been in
the service of the Brighton and South Coast Railway about
two years, as an engine driver, and am now foreman over
the engine-men. My duty is to see the engines as they
go out, and I examined the engine No. 40, before she pro-
meded on her journey that day. She was in as sound
a state so the 'day she came out of the foundry, as re-
gards any accident. I was an engine driver about 14 years
on the Manchester and Liverpool, Bolton and Leeds, the
Belgium, and several other railways, and I should
net, in my experience as a driver, have been afraid to
have driven No. 40. I have driven her often—for a
twriod of five months together with passenger and
luggage trains. I have never bad any accident with
her. I have never said to any one, that I would
not drive her. I thought she jumped about more than
others, but I was never afraid of this or the three other
engines of the same make. They are called Stephen-
son's. The other engines are numbered 41, 42, and 39.
Those engines jumped, and found out the bad road before
the other engines. No. 40 shook about more than the
other three since I came to Brighton ; but I never thought
her unsafe, or I should have refused to ride on her. I have
heard persons on the line remark that she was unsafe. I
have been foreman about six or seven woks. If any wit-
, sea will state that I said I would not drive that engine, he
will state that which is untrue. I know a man named John-
aloe he left the service of the company about a fortnight I
hire this accident happened, because he would not take the
:CNo. 40 if the two Peels went on it, as he had not room
Y week, he having been ordered to take them with him
Is slaw Asa the road. lam certain this is the cause of his
WNW, and not through being afraid to go on the engine.—
Bytbajnry The engine did not require any greater care in the
ennewsement than any other. The engine ran on the3Oth.—
Ily the Coroner . The more as engine jumps the more unsafe
It Is. I believe she was taken in to be repaired a few weeks
before. She did not have new wheels put on, but a fresh Pair.
I consider she would go 35 miles an hour without accident.
On further examination the witness added, I do not con-
di.r that engine so safe as others running at a great speed.
illke was employed in her turn to drag luggage trains. She
bedlam in the habitof drawing passenger trains several days
previous to the accident, and ran on the line between London
and Brighton about six months ago, but I do not know why
she was taken off the London line. A great many engine-
drivers have left the service of the company during the last
three months. Not 100 or 50; not 20. I don't know the
cause of their leaving. The engine-driven receive is. 6d.
per day at the present time. Tney received less before Mr.
Kirtly came. When I fint came they bad only 6s. 8.1
For Sundays they receive a day and a half pay ; and if they
make any over time, they are paid extra. I know nothing
about Gregory's ability as an engine-driver Mr. Kirtly en
gaged him as an engine-man, and I supposed he was com-
petent. Mr. Kirtly gives orders what men should go with
engines—By Mr. Powell, coroner for Chichester Her fore-
wheels were in good safe order, and did not require anything
done to them when the hind wheels were repaired. When
I saw her in the morning she appeared perfectly safe to take
the journey from Brighton te Havant. The engine was pro-
vided with safeguards when I saw her go out. I hove
driven engines of all sorts, and I think the other
engines are better and safer than Stephenson'' engines with
outside cylinders. They are not so safe as the others to go at
a greater speed. One of these enginesewent to Hastings last
week. No. 40 has gone on that line with a passenger train.
Two of them are now working between Brighton and Havant.
I do not know anything of an accident occurring on the
line yesterday, but the engines Nos. 41 and 42 I know were
so the line—By Mr. Faithful : I do not know of any line
where engine-drivers are better paid than on the Brighton.
They do not work harder than upon other lines, end are
better paid.
Mr. J. Canning, of Finch Dean, a passenger, was next
called. His opinion was that the accident was caused by tho
coupling iron of the engine breaking.
W. Wise, examined: I am a brewer and innkeeper, and
formerly kept the Railway Tavern et Haysnt. I know
Hesketh by lodging in my house, and have heard him talk
with other engine-driven about the engines on the South-
Coast line. I have heard him say that No. 40 was a bad
engine. That was before the accident. I never heard him
say anything about steeple-chasing with the engine, or that
he would play them a trick some day. He never gave any
reason fir saying it was a bad engine, but all the men dis-
liked the " long-basked engines," as they called Stephen-
son's.
Capt. Coddington said : I am chief inspector of railways,
and on Monday last, accompanied by Mr. Murray, engineer
of the Admiralty, saw the engine No. 40 at the Brighten ter-
minus. The parts were all good, and there was no wearing
apperent. It was in good working condition. One of the
wheels was hooped. It was one of Stephenson's patent,
Jones and Potts being the makers. The construction of
that particular engine makes it more elastic on the road.
That is caused by there being more overhanging weight at
both extremities. They are used in the north of England,
on the Dover line and the Eastern Counties. I have not
examined the road to state what caused the engine to
go off, as it is a perfectly levet and straight line. I
never saw the line until to-day. I think an engine
with double flange wheels could Mused, but you must make
a line for it.—By Jury Ido not think the eonstruction of
the engine alone would have caused the accident. I think
there must have been some other cause ; but I have not yet
had time to examine. I am not prepared to say that the
inexperience of engine-drivers would cause the accident.—
Examination continued : A defect in the road might have
caused the accident. If the engine dropped upon an un-
packed sleeper, there would be a tendency to its turning
over, and especially with an engine of this description. This,
however, should not be taken as evidence, as it is mctely
conjecture. It was impossible for the accident to have hap-
pened by the breaking of the coupling iron. The quantity
of water in the boiler world have no effect whatever in
making the engine jump. The oscillation of those maims
is only found to any extent when going at high speed.
I de not otmedder those engines dangerous =leis going at van
di* wl. I do not think 36 miles an hour at all
dswgennes speed for than engines. When the accident
happened the engine could not have been goirg at that
speed, as the train stopped at Sahara, which is only one
mile and a half from the spot.—By Mr. Powell My atten-
tion has been drawn to this clam of engines, and I have
drawn the conclusion I have stated with regard to them. I
am not aware that any greater advantages are derived from
there engines than other, but rather disadvantages Up to
a certain degree of speed these engines are safe. If the
used these engines at a speed of 50 miles an hour, they would
do so at greet risk. I think the accident was not caused by
any defect in the engine.
Mr. Kirtly, in answer to the coroner, said Johnson cam
into the service of the company in February last, and left ft
on the 15th of May. The cause of his leaving was as staled
by Hesketh. He never refused to go on that engine. la
fact, he had only been on that engine two days By Mr.
Sherwood: Johnson received 7s. or 7s. 64. per day, I believe.
The sum of 201. was not made a present to him, or any sum
beyond his wages.
The room was here cleared of strangers, and after some
discussion the inquest was again adjourned until the 3rd of
August, Mr. Miller, the surgeon, being of opinion that the
stoker may be in a condition by that time to attend and give
widow*.

ELECTION INTELLIGENCE.
ABERDIIN.--The chartists have resolved to bring forward
candidate. The ceremony will not probably go farther
than the hustings, or if to the poll it will muster some fifty
totes, as before.
CITY or LONDON.—Lut evening, a meeting of the City
electors was held in the large room of the Georgelnn,
tical
Aldermanbury„. for the purism's of hearing the
.peli
opinions of William Payee, Esq., one of the candidates.—
Mr. Smith, the deputy of the ward of Cnpplegate, took the
chair.—Mr. W. Payne stated that the meeting well knew
that for many years he was engaged in an office in the City
of London tt at prevented him from entering intoparliament,
but as soon as he left that office he felt that he had been an
idle man, and that it was quite time for him to rise from his
lethargy, and see what be could do for his coon-
try's good. He would state the principles on which
he sought their suffrages. First, free-trade. He wee
prepared to go to the fullest extent on that point.
The second was tke relief of the agricultural interest. He
thought they ought to do all they could to promote the
growth of corn in England, and not he dependent upon
what came from other parts. The next point was the ex-
emption of that body of men the non-oonformiets from the
payment of church-rates. The fourth principle he would
speak on was the improvement of the state. of Ireland. He
also wished a kinder end more humane revision of tho poor-
laws. Of late they had been placed in the bands of men
who knew not, end, therefore, could not feel, the wants of
the poor. No one would, he thought, deny that a better
administration of justice to all cheeses of the community was
wanting, and for such he should, if returned, vote. From
his knowledge of the criminal law, he thought he might,

The weather, so singularly propitious, inspires all
with hope that Ireland has seen the last of her
calamitous years. Inquiry has ascertained that green
crops have been laid down to a far greater extent than
the most sanguine could have expected, and the pro-
sees still continues with unabated zeal. A favourite
pursuit of the more active of the humbler class of
farmers, is to go along the potato furrows with a
small stick and a pocket full of turnip seeds ; and,
where the stalks show thin, to dibble in a few seeds.
This precaution is owing to the alarm which had been
propagated of an early failure. It might have been
for selfish objects, but unquestionably the result has
been to stimulate the indolent, and by prudent alter-
natives to guard against the consequences of another
blight in the potato. With another month of the pre-
sent weather, and the infection away, the early crop
of potatoes will be perfectly safe. This in itself would
be as immense gain.
There is to be a private meeting of the Irish
council to-day, to receive and agree upon the report
relative to the encouragement of Irish manufactures.
One of the most practicable suggestions in this re-
spect has emanated from the Dotty News—that the
local bodies and gentry should encourage the manu-
facture of such coarse goods as might defy English
competition—such as friezes, druggete, infenor cloths,
I from six shillings a yard downwards, &c. The
scheme in the hands of capital and energy would,
without doubt, succeed. The public meeting of the
council takes place to-morrow.
We hear nothing now of famine, and not quite so
much of fever; but the traces of both are painfully
visible in those districts over which they have swept.
In South Been, a large village and farm in the west
of the county of Cork, a correspondent of the Southern
Reporter says, that there are now only 8 hovels and
50 inhabitants out of 62 houses and 320 inhabitants
which composed the village and population before the
famine. The deserted houses were pulled down for
firing• - •

QUEISN'S BENCH.—Consuirraule interest was
in the Queen's Bench here to-day by a cue of libel in
" The Rev. Denim L. Brasbie c. the Very Rev. Dr. Renehan."
The plaintiff was a Roman Catholic priest, officiating in
Kerry some years since. He subsequently became a member
of the established church, and proceeded to England to
enter on the mission in the diocese of Worcester. The bishop
of that diocese, before giving him any mission, applied by
letter to the president of Maynooth College, the defendant
in the action, to know if Mr. Brasbie bad taken orders. The
president replied he had, but be added that he understood
Mr. Bresbie bad been suspended for immorality. That
letter formed the libel complained of. The defendant pleaded
that the letter was a privileged communication, and also the
general issue and the bona fides of the communication im-
puted as libel. The first plea was overruled, and in support
of the other some Roman catholic clergymen were examined,
who darned that they had heard and believed the plaintiff
bad been suspended as a Roman catholic priest on the ground
of immorality, which they had communicated to the defen-
dant. Numbers of the two religious persuasions take great
interest in the case. The jury, up to post hour, had not
agreed to a verdict.
Ten RIPEAL AINOCIATION.—Tbe usual meeting of this
body teak place to-day at Conciliation-hall. The chair wan
taken by Mr. Kelly, a member of the corporation. Several
addresses from various parts of the country were read, con-
veying the condolence of the writers and the several districts
on behalf of which they spoke to the family of Mr. O'Con.
nell, professing in every cue to adhere to his policy and
maintain the emaciation. Mr. John O'Connell responded te
those several addresses. A letter was read from the Right
Rev. Dr. Cantwell conveying a subscription of 51. to the funds
of the emaciation. He states that, "at no former
period could the association hope to enlist such
warm co-operation from every true friend of Ireland." He
induces the " treatment Ireland has received during the
present season" as a reason for atrengtuniag " the determi-
nation to repeal the union." And in respect to the policy of
Conciliation-hall, he says :—" While the proceedings of the '
Conciliation-hall aro conducted on the loyal, cbristian, and
peaceful prieciples on which it was founded by the illustrious
and aver-to.be-lamented liberator, you may calculate on
,the steady support of the faithful clergy and people of
this diocese." In addition to all this, he pronounces
that an English legislature is incapable, from want of
knowledge, of legislating for Ireland ; and he thus con-
cludes : " I cannot better convey to you my feelings and
wishes than by assuring yen that I echo every sentiment
expremed, and most cordially concur in the practical sugges-
tions contained in the admirable letter of my ,venerated
friend the Bishop of Ardagh,"—meaning the letter read on
this day week from the Rev. Dr. O'Higg. Jas. Mr. John O'Con-
nell, in speaking to this document, took occasion to refer in
very severe ten:sato the commenters, of the Times upon that
letter, and amongst other remarks against it, he contended
that each language u was used by the Times in that corn-
amatory was well calculated to foster hatred of England in
the minds of the Irish Roman Catholic clergy, so well so in
those of the people. A letter was next read fro-n Mr. Cecil
Lawless, in which he states, as if in answer to a general com-
plaint made is the Irish press that no reference should have
been made in the legislature to the death of so prominent a
member thereof as O'Connell, that be would himself
have done so, but from a feeling of his incompet, nee to
do the subject justice: be thinks the some feeling
.may hare deterred others. Mr. Lawless inclosed a sum of
101. to the amociation, as he thinks this a time" when every
one who approved of hie peaceful policy, and who means to
continue by the same means to strive for independence,
should declare it by more than words ; and so, acting upon
this opinion, I send you 101., my extra subscription towards
the maintenance of his Mr. Dillon
Browns, M.P., was present, and in an address avenged him-
self for ealtain attacks made upon him in the journals of
the Young Ireland party, more especially the Notions—The
rent for the week was over 301.—The secretary of the associa-
tion, Mr. T. M. Ray, is alarmingly ill. His malady is of a
very painful nature. His place today was filled by a clerk
in the association.

COMMITTAL OP Two " FAeItIONILALE " RAILWAY
Tielevr.e.—The maristratea at Bristol yesterday were en-
gaged in bearing a charge of felony preferred by the officers
of the Great Western Railway Company, against two
females of elegant appearance and manor re, giving their
names Anne Loft and Sarah Smith. It was stated that the
prisoners had been for some time part• engaged in pocket-
picking in railway carriages, from which they earned a
handsome livelihood. It appeared that a lady named Bar-
nard, front Cheltenham, was in the Bristol and Exeter Rail.
way booking-office, waiting for a down train, by which she
purposed proceeding to Weston-super-mare. She had
arrived too late for one train, aced was waiting for another,
when, as she was amusing herself by entering memoranda in
her pocket-book. she felt some one push against her. Upon
looking round she saw the priaoners, but they appeared to he
toe respectable for her to euepect anything wrong, and she
accordingly went on with her writing. In a few minutes
afterwards she was again puttied &garnet by the prisonno,
who. upon her again looking up, immediately left the office.
Their precipitate departure induced her to suspect some
thing was wrong, and Mrs. Barnard immediately put her
hand into her peket and missed a small bag, in which were
five 61. notes. She gave an alarm, and the railway police
went in search of the prisoners, who were found in the
London booking-office of the Great Western station, waiting
to take their departure for town. They were at once cap
Lured, and while they were In custody one of them was seen
to throw away from her the bag containing the stolen notes.
Mrs. Barnard at once identified them as her property, and
the "ladies,' who denied the theft and appealed to their
"high respectability," were conveyed before the magis-
trate, who, upon hearing the facts, committed them to take
their trial for the felony.

QILLAN v. MOHRISON.—BNITISII SEGOVIA COMPANT.—
CONTRIBUTION.—The arguments were resumed in this caw,
of which the following are the material facts January,
1841, a meeting was held with a view to the formation of a
settlement in central America, in a district called Blue Fields,
or Segovia, within the dominions of the king of the Mosquito
nation, from whom ore of the projectors, Mr. Bell, produced
to the meeting a grant, dated May 31, 1821, of all the lands,
erections, and mines within the following ',mite, viz., all the
sea coast from the southern part of Blue-fields legiun to the
southern entrance of the pearl key lagoon, and making the
Spanish territory the western boundary. This grant was
made to one Peter le Lachent, who had conveyed one moiety
of the lands, comprised in the grant to Mr. Bell, and agreed
to convey the other moiety to his co-adventurers. Certain
resolutions were named at the meeting, and were signed by
the chairman. Appended t,, them were two memoranda of
agreement ; one signed by Mr. Bell, whereby be declared
that he would, when called upon by the. u ustecs of the
British Segovia Company, named in the 10th rennin-
lion, execute articles in conformity with the tad
resolution; the other, !signed by the plaintiff and some
of the defendants, who thereby agreed to b,come provisional
proprietors in the joint stock of the British Segovia Cern-
peny, according to the number of shares affixed to their
respective names. By the second teeclution the company
agreed to purchase conditionally 300,000 acres of land cum-
pried In the above mentioned grant, and to pay to Mr. Bell,
by way of deposit, 6,0001. within four months after the
arrival in England of so expedition to Segovia, to be fitted
out, at the expense of the company, to explore the territory,
and report upon the soil, climate, and productions thereof.
The fourth resolution provided that for the purpose of the
proposed expedition of discovery 240 shares of 2-5/. each
should be alletted, on each of which two calls of 21. 10s.
should be paid in two instalments, one payable on the
signature of the resolutions, and the other four months after-
wards. By the fifth resolution it was agreed that the expense
of the expedition should not exceed 1,2001., except under the
circumstances mentioned ie the nextresolution, and that the
persons subscribing the resolutions were net to be liable
beyond the amount of the two instalments; but the sixth
resolution provided that, if the trustees found 1,2C01. insuf-
ficient for the purposes of the expedition, they might allot 60
additional shares, on which 21.10 i. per share should be paid by
way of deposit. The tenth resolution nominated the trustees,
one of whom was the plaintiff. In pursuance of chow resolu-
tionsthe directers, for the purposes of the expedition, chartered
• ship which left London in March 1841, and touched at
Cape Grades a Dim where Mr. Bell, who was one of those
who sailed on the expedition, obtained from the King of the
Mosquito Nation • confirmation of the grant made to Le
Lacheur. On arriving at the intended settlement, the mem-
bers of the expedition were seined and thrown into prison at
Acoyapa by the government of New Granada, and Mr. Befl
died in prison there. The result was, that the rap: ditlon
failed, and the expenses incurred in it considerably exceeded
the amount of the deposits on the shares, and the present
bill was filed against such of the shareholders as had not
contributed to defray the extra expense, to enforce a contri
Mellon from them.—Mr. Russell, "tdr. Wigram, and Mr.
Tabor appeared fur the plaintiffs, and Mr. Bacon, Mr. Lloyd,
Mr. Cairns, Mr. Levet, and Mr. Blunt, for the various
defendants.
The Vice-Chancellor said that it was impossible in this
case to forget that the *de plaintiff was one of the acting
trustee', who, in their characters of trustees, had the
conduct of the undertakng, without any interference
on the part of the other shareholders. His Ho-
nour was of opinion that, according to the true
construction of the contract, the trustees had no claim
on the general body of shareholders beyond the 1,500/.
authorised to be raised by the resolutions. It bad been argued
that the lose here had been occasioned, not by any fault of
the trustees, but by unforeseen disasters and misfortunes,
and that therefore it could not have been intended to fail
upon the trustees, as pert of the reasonable expeosee of the
expedition. His Honour was sorry to be unable to accede
to that argument, it appearing to him that as between them-
selves and the shareholders the trustees had undertaken to
pay all expense% exceeding the I,sool.—The bill was ordered
to be dismissed.
