THE BIBLE.

Mr. BAINES asked the Secretary of State for the Home
Department whether it was the intention of her Majesty's
government, on the expiration of the potent of the Queen's
printer for England and Wales, so the 21st January, 1560,
to propose the renewal of that patent, so far as 'ilea to the
priat;og of bibles or *adamants, or say restriction on the free
printing of the Holy Suiptures ?
Sir 0. C. LEWIS sold that the restraints upon the print-
ing of the Holy Scriptures in the United Kingdom did not,
as the boo. ;entlemon appeared to imply, and se was not un-
commenly supposed, rut merely apes the patents granted to
the lluen's pnnteee, but upon the prerogative of the crown.
The crown had the prerogative of restraint upon the printing
of the authorised version of the Holy Scriptures and of the
Book of Common Prayer. That prerogative could only be
put so cnd to in some legal manner, or prated by act of
parliament. The policy of renewing the patent referred to
was under the cons:deration of the government, bat that wee
the point which involved a gaol many difikult qautions„
and the gov:riummt had not yi t come tr any decision upon
it. So far u the matter hal been represented to
tiro, he did not think that there was say
pmctical grievance at pruent with respect to the printing
either of the Bible or the Prayer•book, as to in iecuracy, or
ear to went of cheapness. (Hear, hear.) He was assured
that the °betimes, with which the Bible and the Prayer-
I 0.,k were printed could not be teaseled; the ca,pi• a printed
by the Queen's printout and the two Eoglish universities cir-
culated in the l'aited States and in our colonies, and com-
peted therefore with Bibles and Prayer•books printed with-
out any restraint or monopoly. He wee not aware, therefore,
that a change of system would produce any advantage la
that rupee:. As to securely of text, he found it van gene-
rally admitted that some authen• itation by a public authority
was nee- Bury. (Hear, hear.) In reference to another part
of the hen. gentleman's question he bad to state that although
in Scotland there wee no monopoly with respect to
any printer, there was nevertheless a reetrahu upon
all printery, as it was not compateat fer
any printer in S.-col aid to print or publish a
copy of the 131ble without the consent of the Bible Board.
Therefore that vas juat es much a restraint of the liberty of
printing a, if the monopoly or privilege et printing was
granted to • limited number of printers. Arid if that system
were introduced ism England it would entail a certain "O-
pener. The Male Board in Scotland was supported at an
annual charge of 1,0901., peovided In the atimates et each
year, and which the hone, would shortly be tenet upon to
vile fur the present year. If that system were extended to
England the amount required would be larger. In cones-
quen^e of tee competition, which he was told was very active
between the Queen's printers sod the two universities, no
'spree was Incurred for insuring accuracy of the text of the

trZeite.
Mr. HADFI ELD asked if the government would strap nd i
the renewal of ills grant until the li.tuso Ltd had an oppor-
tunity of envisaging an opinion on the eubject. He thought '
the right "vs. gentleman we, much mistaken as to the che ip-
Deo, of the works.
S:r G. C. LEWIS mid that no legiel .t ion wss required for
the purpose of renewing the patents of the Queen's printer..
It was a grant which was derived front the preroestive; and
thew was no ecassion at ell for that house to legialate. The
government hod cnns to no decielon ou the question. What
Le add was merely interlocutory, end they had no latently.
whatever of renewing the patent* at present. Full oppor-
tunity wonldite.r.en to any hon. member to bring the subject
forward this .
THE CLOCK AT THE HOUSES OF PARLIA3IEMT.
Mr. HARKEY put the following question:—Whet is the
reason why only two fools of the clock in the Clock Tower
are now mule use of ; sloe, whether there has been any late
correpondence between the maker of the deal and the arch'.
teot of the Hone?. of Fedi anent or the Bard al Works;
and if an whether there la objection t 3 lay such correspon-
denos before the honey
Mr. FITZROY said it was true that only two faces of the
clock at pruseut indicated the time. The reason wee that the
Mame-hands which had been fixed on the clock were found
to be so heavy that it wee impossible to work them witbeut

A guardians bad been treated by tradesmen like anybody
.A.*e awl until three yeast ago thin, was never soy question
but that the externem fairly meurred by boards of Fuentes"
should be met ey rates levied for the purpose. A year sod
it half ago the question was raised and brought Inure was
Court of ERA] weer, who were of opinion that lie-
Mtn" already Weaned might bo god by rate*. There
wee an appeal, however, to the Ex lever Chamber, who
termed this decision, and detennit ed that it was not eorn-
ptuem to boards of [medians to ply any entrees by mere
of a rate levied after the debt was Incurred—they bail it
down that If a debt was iactured on Christmas-day it was
not competent to the guardians to pay it out of • rate levied
in Jut try. In fact, it was nor illegal for guardians to pry
Or anything in any other way then by ready messy. It did
therefore appear to him that fixing a rem 'nettle limit, sae
12 moieties parliament might 'Lev's-re boatels of guardians to
pa the debts lawfully incurred. That wits what was pro-
CVby this Mil, arid by another closes the Poor Low
.:1 had a diectetionary power to extend the peeled Piz
months lo eget, bemuse there might be cases in which.
owing to the death of a tradesman or some other einem-
stanee, the bills could not be sent in within the tease-
mouth. It might Le add that (Me war an attempt to do
by a pubic bill offset the house refused last year to In by
a prig sta bill; but the thing proposed to be done Ira not
etactly the same, for under the private bill, in the case of
the Beat Lenten Union defalcation., the money erns Oct

by is pattletelar local arrangament.
Mr. HENLEY moved the adjoanunent of the debate, re-
mating that this wee • question which required full
discussion.
Mr. AYRI ON supported the adjournment. He said that
the Mil was damn in such a form [bat If it were adopted it
would alter Coo whole of the present administration of the
poor rates, and substitute a sprees of payment by prospective
rates.
Sir G. C. LEWIS did not oppose the adjournment,
though having made such progreas with the debate on the
emend reading it might have been more convenient to eli-
de& it now, sad diecum the clauses in committee. It would
Foe remembered that mum time ego \IACIN frauds were found
to have been committed in ea City of London Union, by
which the creditors of the anima w,re defrauded of sums of
money jostle duo to them. In consequence of those dedi-
cation, ties guardians ordered rotes to be loved
to supply the deficiency. The liabilty to pay these
rates was contested in the Court of Queen's Beach,
which deoWed to favour of the retrospective pay-
mset of debts out of the rates so levied 'the
party who disputed the rates, however, were not *alleged
with this, and they brought the matter into the Exchequer
Camber, when a decision was given which virtually es a-
l:Cabal the point that boards 1.,f guardians should not have •
stogie day's credit given them. The main object of this bill
ems to Legalise the practise which had always suited
to
fame of the yore law authorities, by voids, trades-
mea with whom they dealt ware enabled to give
them credit and rewire payment out of the rates afterwards.
Tewn.coundle, and all other bodice administering local rates,
took credit, as a mettle of mune, in some term or otter ;
therelore the Brat clause was nenveary. As to the amend
clines, that rented to the City of Landes Usher. The toes
arising from the dafamatioas moat tall either on the rate-
payer or on the tradeemen who toppled the union. Ihe
eonelitrovery of tie frauds was owing to the neglect of the
guardians, sod they are elected by the ratepayers, and the
loss, therefore, ought rather to fall ou them thin
on the tradesmen, who acted on • principle eel-
*Amity Mooted Mate. It was said it was nojuat
to go back six yews. That might be so, but the
limb of time was a question for the committee; he would
therefore suggest that the bill be reed • mooed time, and
the discussion taken in committee.
Mr. J. LOCKE would eupport the motion for the adjourn-
unat. He thought the argumente of the Home &weary
were the most extraordinary he had ever heard. The right
hen. gentleman 'demoted the bill for the pupate of ut set-
tics the decision of the Court of Exchequer Chamber,
althong'o that declaim only recognhted what had been the
unversed practice and mottled law. All boards of sunlit-at
are bound at the *fining of each year to mike
it rate to meet all their probable expenses. and
have no right to take credit. The hardship oar

LONDON. 27118 DAY, JULY 12.

The Oceae•te of Milan, recently appointed by
Victoa 1111lAWV/LL, bas tuned adecree, which will
be found in another column, declaring that the same
liberty of conscience and of religious teaching which
has for many years prevailed in Piedmont is hence-
Nwth enured to the people of Lombardy. Under
t►e free institutions that exist in the hereditary
States of the Sardinian KIM;, men have
grown accustomed to think, speak, and print
whatsoever opinions they believe to be tree
in speculative tad political wiener what is
tar more precious in the eight of good
awn, far more permanently- valuable even so •
means of national advancement and civilisation is
the sight of deep-thinking men, freedom of worship
and of education has been established in all the
tereitories of the House of SAVOY west of the Ticino.
And 03W that the dividing Winn hat been crossed
by the army of liberation, and that Lombardy of its
own spontaneous will, as is 1848, has pronounced tee
anima with Piedenontot is wise and just that the newly-
organised Government of the provinces thus united
should alhird the earliest proofs in its power
of the equal spirit in which it undertakes itiv
new obligatilear. A nobler evidence of steadfastness
and soundness of purpose it could not give
than tbs. There is no sectarian object to be
famed in Lombardy by the enactments of guars-
teasel soul liberty." There are [iodise tfected Huger-
nue to be woo over by concessions to the recently
established order of things. No powerful section
or elan is to be propitiated, as is other countries, by
the proclamation of the principle of religious free-
dom. The popnlatios is professedly Catholic as in
Piedmont ; but, hitherto, the rights of the laity to
inquire, discuss, or teach in matters of faith or morals
hays been no more than rare and exceptional indul-
gences from the priesthood and police; for in regions
ruled under the term of a Concordat, the bidding of
priesteraft and the 6,mila of the gendarme are to
each other so the body to the soul of daily oppres.
moo. No religious book could be printed or pub-
lished is Milan without the previous inspection of
the authorities; and the authorities were bound by
so:ma treaty with the Vatican not to stif-
fer any doubt to be disseminated of the
maxims of HILDEPRAND and the ethics of
Lorots. The sacred Scriptures themselves were
at the head of the list of contraband articles
prohibited at the frontiers ; and no bookseller
would have ventured to embark in the perilous
speculation of printing foe secret sale an edition of
the Word of GOD. An English gentleman, not king
ago, happened on his way to Italy to hays boaght at
Frankfort • cheap English edition of fleaticelt
works. Oa his arrival at Ilomo (Mewls hiajiar

tain only two books—a small Bible and the volume

winged words of the unbelieving poet to pus with-
out notice. But is the dull routine of obscurantism
the unhappy Louberds seldom found their religions
and political oppression undiscerniag. The love of
inquiry they could not indeed eradicate, bat they suc-
ceeded wonderfully in stiffing its avowal and pre-
venting Its exercise. A Lombard might be a classic
scholar, a mathematician, or an artist, if he pleased;
but • knowledge of the fiundations of morals,
of creeds. or of government', other than
t►at taught by the Jesuits, he could not obtain, sac
by expatriation or by stealth. For the majority
of even what is called the better climes neither of
these was practically possible ; and with few excep-
tions consequently the community remained pro-
foundly ignorant of those diversities of opinion is
the collision of which the moral thews and sinews
of =olden civilisation have confessedly grown
strong.

Here then we see, in a form that every man
amongst us can understand, the difference between
the two systems that are struggling for the a seendmicy
in Irajy. It is not Protestantism against Catholicism
—it is not Dissent against Uniformity of ritual
or discipline : it is far more —it is the revolt
of lb* laity against saixtedotalian ; the uprising of
free thought against Imperialised prieetcraft ; the
renewed assertion of the eternal and inalienable
right of private judgment in all things, whether
civil or religious, against the mast realtiess tyranny
ever the minds of men ever undertaken by the coejoint
ingenuity of Charch and State. It may suit trading
politicians in high places in this country to describe
the mighty conflict going on in Italy as a selflah
scuffle between two despotisms. and nothing more.
But wherever this decree of M. Vit; this: is resd,wien
whose hearts are right within them will thank GOD
that the courtier and craven rersicx of the matter is
m, re ,i,;serable mendacity, unbelieved whenspokeni
when heard. How soon all Italy may
hope to be admitted to equal rights of conscience
and of expression with Piedmont and Lombardy.
we dare not venture to predict. The people go to
Turin, press in scree to their palpitating bosom* the
historic mementoes of that freedom which even in
what were railed dark ages they to a great extent
enjoyed, and anxiously they count the boors aatil
the liberating trumpet shall be beard without disir
gates, seen as it has been heard at Milan. Are
there in our senate or oar press--in the Parliament
or in the pulpits of England--any so bus, so time-
serviog, or so slavish as to deprecate the speedy Fab.
