the sense of the necessity of parliamentary reform, and in-
vited the people to become memben of the essociatioe, and
was briefly enforced by Mr. J. P. Wrxxiche, M.P.
Mr. 0. DAWSON, of Birmingham, moved the emend re.
solution, which tecommended the appointment of lecturers,
and the direction of the energits of the association to the
agricultural clews, in a speech which wee greatly relished by
the audience ; and Mr. Tux.nrr having seconded it,
Mr. HOUGHTON, of Upton, nearly Aylesbury, who was
introduced as one of the largest agriculturists is the king-
dom, and who stated he was probably the largest landowner
and occupier In Englard, observed that it was impossible to
grow wheat at a low price and to pay a high taxation. He
never would stop until he had free trade in everything ea
well as in corn.

Mr. rAliftir, of Norwich, moved, and Mr. WATIIMA, of
Nawesstl,, oeconded, the next resolution, empowering the
council to inns tracts and publications is support of their

Mr. HYDE, delegate from Berkhampetead, whe had be-
fore uttered some exclarnatior. I from the body of the meeting,
got on the platform, and excited much laughter by declaring
he knew more of the questions of taxation and of agricultural
feeling than any man in the kingdom, as well as by sonic
eecentrieities of speech and manner. Ile then made an
attack on "the peat cotton lords of the West Riding Ur
holding back from the association." It was a Question of

tlemen had come Gown with their hundreds and thousands
for the event of the cora laws, which would benefit them-

"animated walking clothes's:go, to show off the skill of
tailors," " Belgravian mendicants, living on the earnings of
the seamstreee," " pouring out their cruel cmstempt on
the poor labourer in his fustian jacket." He hoped the day
would moon come when a man, seeing one or them in his red
or blue coat, would turn to him and say, " Go, and ba honest
—re werk." (Loud cheers.)
The conference then adjourned till 10 o'clock this

THE QUEEN V. HOLE.

The defendant in this case was a magistrate of the county
of Devon. A role nisi had been obtained, calling on him to
show cause why a criminal information should not be filed
against him for alleged corruption in the discharge of his
duties as a magistrate.
Mr. Ceckburo, with whom was Mr. M. Stith, now showed
onus agaiost the rule. The rule had been obtained chiefly
on the affidavit of one Smerdon, against whom an informa-
tion had been laid for pursuing game without &certificate, and
who was found guilty and fined 201. The charges against the
maiistrate, who was • man of most respectable standing,
and who had extresed the functions of • magistrate for 20
years, were that he had been tampered with and had pre.
judged the case ; that he had appointed an improper day for
hearing the ease ; and that he had beard the case unfairly,
by interrupting the only witness called by the prosecutor,
and preventing him from calling other wittiness whom he
desired to Those charges were mainly based upon the
affidavit of Smerdon, in which be positively denied that he
had been guilty of matters laid to his charge, and alleged
that he was ready to prove this by the witnesses who were
not allowed to be called. To rebut the case thus made for
the prosecution, the learned council, in showing cause, put
in and raid several affidavits from parties of the highest re-
spee•ability, which affidavits were in denial of the
three charges made against the defendant. From
one of these affidavits it appeared that so far
from pr 'judging the case, or seeking to convict the
prosecutor, he had invited the commissioner of taxes for the
district to occupy the bench with him, and 'Geist him in the
cause. La to the charge of his having appointed an impro-
per day, au affidavit was read, made by the magistrate's
clerk, to the effect that, for many yaws past, the practice
had been to appoint special days for the disposal of such
cases. The .14endant's own affidavit was then read, deny-
ing all the charges, and giving a detailed statement of all
the circumstances of the case, to show that there was no
foundation for them or either of them. Other affidavits were
produced, all to the same effect, and all showing that the
prosecutor bad had a fair and impartial hearing. Under
these circumstances the learned counsel submitted that the
rule should be discharged.
Mr. Collier and Mr. Hawkins suppt.rted the rule.
Lord Campbell said the rule had been very fitly granted
by Mr. Justice Coleridge upon affidavits which disclosed a
ease of very gross corruption, such as the law of England
woul I not endure. Bat the answer which had been made to
it, by the affidavits this day read, was entirely satisfactory,
and showed that though the magistrate did not conduct the
case with regularity, he did conduct it with perfect fairness
lie (Lord Campbell) was satisfied that juice had been
done, and that the prosecutor had had ample opportunity of
examining any witnesses whose evidence he might have
thought to be material. The rule must be discharged, and
with eats.—Role discharged with costs.

the tone is very firm, and a further advance in price

97, to 1, to 1, at which they have continued steady up

G REECE.

The Greek papers of the 9th allege that Mr. Wyse
and Baron Gros have not come to an sgreemert ;
and they state Mr. Wyse's last proposition
to have been as follows :—That on the payment of
180,009 drachmes the admiral would give op the
Greek merchant ships in his poesession, and
that this sum would cover all the claims
with the exception of the amount said to be due
by the l'ortuguese government to Don Pacieco
—these claims of lion Pacifico upon the Portugame
government to be afterwards examined into and
properly settled. if the Greek government were ;
nnable to pay in ready money the lsomou drachmes
they should find valid security for 3410,090 drachmes, I
which would remain al a deposit in the hands of the
British minister until Lord Palmerston should have
decided upon the amount which ought to be given I
to Don Pacifism in full for all his claims; the
balance of the sum to be then returned to the
Greek government, and if the Greek government
could not find valid security for the amount
of 300,000 drachmes, Admiral l'arker would retain
the Greek men-of-war in his posaeseinn as a guarantee
for that sum, and her Majest) 'a minister would, more-
over, require from the Greek government a pledge
that no claims should be brought forward heleafter
arising out of the coercive mea.sures.

On; cannot well ice what King Otho or Baron Gros
can find objectionable in these offers, vapeoiallY as it
was admitted that lion l'acifloo's claims should be
examined xto, and not insisted on further than it
appeared he had been wronged. But as was said in
the L•ipercaa a fortnight back, the King has
more objection to make anything like reparation to
the lonians, than even to the payment of money.
But considering the representatives returned from
Cephalonia, who are avowedly partisans of Greek
resistance to the lowan government, and considering
the language they hold, it is impossible not to iosist
on reparation fur the outrage committed in and before
Vigra&

Nobody could be better disposed than Baron Gros
at brat; but it is feared that, since the last l'aris
elections, and since the President flung himself it.t)
the hands of Mole and Thiers, the French cabinet has
been induced to send coomer-orders to Baron Gros to
be less favourable to England and more favourable to
Russia.

HAMBURG, APRIL 19.
To judge by the Danish newspapers, the delegates
(tom the duchies will not be able to obtain honour-
able conditions of peace. The Danes seem to bo as
fanatical in their hatred t•I the Germans as ever. It
was supposed that the bad state of their finances
would make them feel more inclined for peace than
they otherwise would be; but it appears that their
credit stands very good in London, and some of their
friends aesert that most old scores were paid off, and
the exports of produce from the Danish ielands to
England have been immense within the last two or
three years, while the imports are next to nothing.
The balance paid in cub sent to Denmark was, then -
fore very large. How tar those pretensions are
founded the capitalists of your metropolis will hotter
know than we do.

Another opinion of the conclusion of the peace
that the duchies, rather than be separated, will
Bice up the r connexi, n with Germany altogether,
and will be annexed to Denmark in the same way as
Norway is to Sweden.
The Crown Prince of Sweden and suite arrived
yesterday, and left again this morning, en route to the
ilague.

from the member for the West Riding of Yorkshire (Mr.
Cobden), in reference to a statement which he (the Esrl of

cussion upon the bid of Mr. lon, on Wednesday last. The
letter denied that Mr. Fronde had been appointed principal
giant* college at Manchester; and added that the college

that Mr. Fronde bad been appointed principal of the new

the bill when it should he brought forward.

MARLBOROUGH-S MEET.

CHAROZ or EMBIZZLIMILVT.—C. Saunders was te-
e:mined, charged with hiring emb!zzliri rarioua tams of
money, belonging to t.is employer, Robert Richard Squill,
wine merchant.

The evidence adduced on the former examination,
went to show that the prosecueor had opened a betting-
office, and had engaged the prisoner as clerk, at a
salary of 15s. per work. It eras the duty of the prisoner
to pay over to the prosecutor every evening all the
money he received during the day. Complainant discovered
that the prisoner had received 'weevil sums of money, and
had neither entered them in the book nor paid over the
amount to him. The prisoner had received 51. from a gen-
tleman named Donald. Tnie sum was entered in the betting
book ea U. A Mr. Jones had also paid two sumo, of 11. and
10s., neither of which appeared is the beak. At the statioc-
souse notes and gold to the amount of 6.51. was Coned upon
the prisoner. The prosecutor now rated that he had dis-
covered several other defalcations, but at present he was not
prepared to go further into the cue.
Mr. Sidney, on behalf of his client, contended that under
a recent act cf parliament the money could not be recovered,
as a clause in that act stated that betting yrs illegal.
Mr. Bingham considered it was a bet upon a legal horse.

the prisoner for a week, but would accept bail in two sureties

not,"—it was pr.'pcsed by Eichorn to strike oat. The
commissary of goer roment eupported the clause.
Count llyhrn mad he wee neither jurist, like Eichorn,
nor so old a stab sman, but he saw that if the passage
clause were struck our, the i dependence of the court
would be destroyed. He did net fear ministerial
.justice, if its suurce were only own.d, l e pie would
know what they had to contend with. Let them
strike out the paragraph, and they would come to
ministerial justice—yes, to absolutism.
The proposition was declined. The discnesion of the
fundamental rights n commenced. An amend.
went by the committee on par. 134 was adopted.
" Freedom of emigration from the states can only be
limited by the rnileare obligations imposed by the
law." The cornmit•eoi, amendment to par 136
" Except in the case of criminals taken in the act, no
person shall be imprison, d without an order made by
a magistrate, accompaeitd by a statement of the
grounds of arrest, which document must be exhibited
to the prisoner within twenty-four hours"—
was adopted. The amendment of the com-
mittea on the press liw was as follows :
" Offences of the preps, which are not expressly ex-
eepted by the law, will b, tried by a jury. The cen-
sorship will have no place, and all limitations of the
freedom of the press must take place in the way of
legislation." Count Arnim (Boytzenberg) said it
might be thought a recommendation of this motion to
say that it brought the constitution into harmony
with that of Prussia; bat the government of
Prussia had a power of intervention which the
administration of the union did not possess. The
amendment was adopted. The remaining clauses
which received the assent of the house were to
the following effect :—Civil and p.litical rights
cannot be abridged or suspended on account of reliui-
one belief. There is no more any state church. The
law will provide for the authentication of every per-
missible marriage. Every German whose compe-
tence has been ascertained by the appointed r xamin-
ing bird is free to exercise the office of an instructor.
Public professors possess the rights and owe the
duties of mintaters of the state. The words "So help
me God," were struck out of the form of oath. The
sitting terminated as the I:itch par. was confirmed.

ROMAN STAIRS.

Our letter from Rime are of the 14th. Our cor-
respord.nt enriches with an abundance of details the
bare fame communicated by telegraph respecting the
Pope's ntranee into the capital. An attempt was
made on the night befo:P the Pontiff's arrival, to burn
down the Niece of the Q•sirinal, the abode of the
cardinal triumvirate. The incendiaries were detected
by a French sentinel, and on being challenged fled,
leering &ago% tow, turpentine, and other such com-
bustible materials as left no doubt with regard to
ti.tir design.
The windows of the l'idezzo Chigi were, on the
seine night, shattered by the txploeion of a grenade
in the street.

All persons seeking admittance to the Vatican
Palace are submitttd to the strictest scrutiny of the
Swiss guard. Precautions are taken to secure the
life of his Holiness against poison. A new cook has
been promoted from the convent of St. Cathay', and
all viands arc introduced by such a turning cylinder
as is commonly used in convents for the introduction
of food.

Two French regiments were on the eve of depar-
ture. The French army bad dropped its title of
"expeditionary," to aseume that of "army of occupa-
tion. The illumination continued for three nights,
and a nrand Ts beton was sung in all the ohnrchee

TRH lONIAN ISLANDS.

We are glad to me by the enbioined letter from
Lord Charles Fitzroy to Lord John linsl.,e':l, the
there is some prospect of the wrongs of the loniarJ
being taken into consideration by the Premier :
To the Right Hon. Lord John Russell, &e.—Nly
Lord,—l am happy to hear that your lordship
(though you will not allow of the royal commission)
intends taking the lonian affairs into consideration,
and I trust therefore seriously. Rely, my lord, on
your early impressions, that the people, in their re-
monstrances against the acts of their governor, are
not always in the wrong. Neither need you be stir-
primed that intelligent persons in the lonian Islands
have similar feelings with yourself on that point.
. Therefore when a legislative assembly, nominated
by the Lord High Commissioner, thanked that
Lord High Cimmissioner for his acts in Cephalonia,
in suppressing an insurrection, contrary to all the
facts of the case, justice, or reason, you should not be
surprised in a new parliament which immediate:y
followed (the representatives of which, under a new
law, were really elected by the people), that the oil
deputies from Cephalonia should have entered the
lists in opposition to the Lord High Commissioner,
himself having thrown down the gauntlet in defiance.
There are two points open to abuse, either of
them detrimental to the cause of true lattice
and constitutional government in those mule;
the one, the irresponsible high police power
vested in the Lord High Commissioner, and hie
equally irreeponsib!e power over the revenue of the
country. Fear may cause the first power to be
abused, bat It declares Itself; the other power is
abuse, being silent in its operation, is olio more dear

MALTA AND TIIE LEVANT.

We have received oar correspondence from Ma....s

still ashore, but when the Queen cime in he woiLii
hoist his tlag on board her and go out in her. Ita
crews of the ships were perfectly beallby. the 44:h
has lost 100 men by cholera; the ti9rb only two, and
the artillery one. At Sumo's, where the naval
arsenal is, the deaths had been .50 per diem, and we»
now 32. Ths total number of cases was supposed to
be 527, death 3SO. In Valetta there were not more
than six cases a day.

From the above colony we have no later acoounte
than notieed on the arrival of the reading overland
India maiL The sale of the land at Victoria wee ad-
vertimed to take place on Dec. 81, the result of whisk
we have yet to be made acquainted with: nothing
favourable can be expected, as the land to be pat up
at auction consists of plots near the sea, which the
executive bad been forced to abandon for the higher
ground, in consequence of the swamps and the fever
incidental to the marshy locality. Her Majesty'.

JAVA.

BATAVIA, DEC. 31.—The month has been wholly
barren of any stirring intelligence. The Governor
General Is still seriously indisposed, and, although
present at Batavia, his excellency is incapable of
taking a leading part in public affairs, which still
devolve on the vice-president of the council. Several
storms have occurred in the provinces, but not
attended with loss of life. There have also been
terrace convulsions : on Dee. 1 a shower of saes fell
in the Tagal residency, which continued for two
hours, supposed to have been thrown out by some of
the volcanoes in the neighbourhood, but not Jo such
an extent as to injure the standing crops.
The graving docks at flourabaya have at length
been completed, on a scale sufficiently large to receive
large steam-vessels. Several vessels belonging to the
government have been repaired moat effectually, and
a tariff is about to be published, detailing the rates at
which private vessels will be docked and repaired.
The constrnotion of these docks will be a great boon
to the shipping in these seas, and soon repay govern-
ment for the outlay and expenses incurred in their
erection. It is currently reported, and very generally
believed, that Governor-General Rochtunen will
shortly proceed home; illness, and some misunder-
standing with the Hague authorities, is said to be the
cause of his Excellency's intended departure, if so,
it is highlr probable the arrival of the next mail from
Europe will determine the matter.

SOUTH AUSTRALIA.

By way of Singapore we have received Adelaide
journals to the beginning of November. The columns
of our colonial contemporaries are chiefly occupied in
discussing and reporting proceedings in the Supreme
Court, arising out of libellous and scandalous sneer-
miens on the characters of some of the colonists moving
in the higher circle. Political matters appear to have
yielded to the all-absorbing social quarrels. The
revenue for the quarter, ending Sept. 30th, is set
down at 42,0131. reeeipte,and 39,3021.f0r expenditure,
exhibiting a steady and healthful progress of the
colony, as compared with the corresponding quarter
of previous years, es under :

On October 17, the directors of the far-famed
Bum Barra mine held their ninth half-yearly meet-
ing. Since the opening of the mines to Sept. 29th,
the copper ore had realised a sum largely exceeding
half a million sterling clear of freight and charges.
A dividend of 100 per cent. had recently been paid.
The heavy amount of business in the civil court, and
the continued indisposition of the judge, has been the
source of load complaint, minor cases being thrown
into arrears by the various actions brought to sustain
reputation of so bubble a nature that the damages
awarded in seven cases aggregated but ls. lid., al-
though the total amount claimed by plaintiffs was

The colonists complain of the class of emigrants sent
out from England by the Emigration Commissioners.
