THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 12, 1852.

Noble Marquis—a spirit which will induce members of
Parliament to look at great subjects of national import-
ance—not through the medium of this or that section or
party, and not through the medium of private interests;
but that they will look at them as that great man we
have so lately lost would have looked at them, through
the medium of that which would, on the whole, be tor
the advantage of the great interests of the country, of
those interests of which not a Ministry alone, but of
which both Houses of Parliament are the natural reposi-
tories. On that point, my Lords, I need say no more.
With regard to the question on which I have dwelt so
long, I have frankly stated that we will endeavour as
honestly to carry cut that policy to which we formerly
objected, as far as we had been the authors of that
policy; and, on the other hand I say as distinctly, that
I will abstain from no effort which, in my judgment, and
in that of my colleagues, may be calculated to lessen the
inevitable injury inflicted or those who suffer from the
effects of that policy the nation has finally adopted. (The
Noble Earl resumed his seat amid general cheering.)
The Address was then adopted.
On the motion of the- First Minister, Lord Redesdale
was re-appointed Chairman of Committees of their
Lordships' House.
Their Lordships then (at a quarter to eight) ad-
journed.

especially of the manufacturing labourers, is to
be attributed to that legislation, combined with
other causes, which has given to them the advantage of

other circumstances have prevented from being accom-

apprehended. If your Lordships ask me what are those

LAW REFORM.

Lord LYNDHURST called the attention of their
Lordships to the returns in Lunacy which had been
moved fur by him List session, in connection with which
he wished to ask his Noble and Learned Friend on the
Woolsack whether it was his intention to introduce any
measure this session for the reduction of the expenses of
proceedings in Lunacy? If such were his Noble
Friend's intention, he should leave the matter in his
hands with the greatest satisfaction. He also wished to
know whether it was intended to carry out the recom-
mendation of the Common Law Commission?
The LORD CHANCELLOR was understood to
answer both questions in the affirmative. It was also
his intention to introduce other measures of Law Re-
form, the details of which he should take the earliest
opportunity of laying before the House.
Lord BROUGHAM expressed his satisfaction at the

LONDON, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1852.

It being certain, for the reasons assigned in The
Sun of Tuesday last, that the Income and Property
Tax will be renewed, in an improved form, by any
Ministry which may be entrusted with the duty of
carrying on the Government of the country, we may
now consider the probable nature and extent of the
modifications that will be submitted for legislative
consideration. In the first instance, then, an attempt
will, we believe, be made to render the impost more
productive, not only by bringing a greater number of
persona within its operation, but also by increasing
the per tentage payable by each.
There is a general tendency of late years in favour
of direct taxation. The people can no longer be de-
ceived by the indirect mode. They cannot now be

It being certain, for the reasons assigned in The
Sun of Tuesday last, that the Income and Property
Tax will be renewed, in an improved form, by any
Ministry which may be entrusted with the duty of
carrying on the Government of the country, we may
now consider the probable nature and extent of the
modifications that will be submitted for legislative
consideration. In the first instance, then, an attempt
will, we believe, be made to render the impost more
productive, not only by bringing a greater number of
persona within its operation, but also by increasing
the per centage payable by each.
There is a general tendency of late years in favour
of direct taxation. The people can no longer be de-
ceived by the indirect mode. They cannot now be
persuaded that it is better to have 30s. filched from
their pockets, than to pay 204. honestly and fairly to
the National Exchequer. The late G. 11. PORTER (a
first rate authority on such subject.) explains the
reasons why the objectionable system was so largely
resorted to in the olden time. He says, (Progress of

THE ADMISSONS TO CHELSEA COLLEGE.

Withthe numerous letters which we have
received subject, we are enabled, from infor-
mation on which we can fully rely, to acquit the Lord
Chamberlain's office'

t h
i tos
of any blame as to the number of
tickets issued on Friday last.

The applications for tickets were 25,000 ; of these
12,000 were granted, and 14,000 refused.. 11,000 were
received at the doors. The Lord Chamberlain's calcu-
lations, therefore, allowed only 12,000 persons to pass
through the building in eight and a half hours. The next
da,y47,000 persons passed through the same space in seven
hours. It will be seen, therefore, that tae faults which
proved so fatal, whatever they were, and with whomso-
ever they rested, had nothing to do with tie Lord Cham-
berlain's office.

decided the question. His
Lordship, after going through the facts of the case at
great length, stated that the bill was filed for the specific
performance of a contract; and it was his opinion that a
clearer case had never been brought before a court of jus-
tice. On the part of the Company it had been alleged
that the contract was entered into illegally ; but his
Lordship was of a different opinion, and stated that it
was disgraceful for a public company, having every op-
portunity of knowing the law, to come there, and to try
and take advantage of a private individual by turning
round upon their own acts. He should, therefore, with-
out any hesitation, both law and equity being in favour
of the contract, dismiss the appeal, and that with costs.

WOoDWIN'S SoillEES CoMIQUEB.—No entertainment
submitted of late years to the London public, has attained
a more speedy or merited popularity than Mr. Woodwin's
" Carpet-bag and Sketch-book," which draws nightly a
fashionable and full attendance at the Royal Marionette
Theatre. The extraordinary versatility of the monologist,
the
rapidity of his transformations, and the variety of
amusing characters he personates, render an evening's visit
to this elegant Salle, ono of the most thoroughly enjoyable
Lions of the metropolis. Mr. Woodwin is an artist of
singularly comic
power, totally free from exaggeration or
buffoonery. Among his best delineations are the imita-
tions of several of our most celebrated actors, which he
gives with extreme fidelity and effect. The large amount
of patronage bestowed on his unique display of talent, is
eininOntly doomed.

THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON'S FUNERAL,

The preparations at St.!, PauTs for the ceremony of
Thursday next, notwithstanding the immensity of the
task to be accomplished, are ad7ancing rapidly towards
completion. With 800 worknen employed until 10
o'clock at night, each man aninated with a sort of en-
thusiasm for his work, as we beleve is the case, much
may be done even in the short space of time which re-
mains, and there is not the lightest doubt but that
everything will be finished by tie day. At present only
the seats in the nave appear in a state of completion ;
nothing remains to be done there but the trimming with
white fringes of the black cloth with which they are
covered. The seats in the north transept, which are in
the form of a semi-circular sweep, rising to the height of
50 feet, are built up, but not yet covered. These are to
be appropriated to Members of the House of Commons,
and behind them, on the higher benches, will be placed
the corporation of London. The Peers will be placed
once seats opposite, in the south transept, built also in
a similar weep: We need scarcely say that all is built
with ihe greatest solidity Ind strength of material.
Water will be laid on, and stands, with glasses placed at
intervals ; indeed everything is provided which can be
needed by those who will have to wait for hours in the
Cathedral before the procession arrives. We believe
that a definite decision has now been arrived at as to the
exact spot in which the rennins of the Duke are to be
placed. It was contemplated removing the body of
Nelson, which at present lies exactly in the centre of the
vault, a little to the right, so that the two great heroes
might lie side by side in the centre of the great national
temple, but that intention is now relinquished, and the
coffin of Wellington will resr, a little to the east of the
naval hero. On Thursday it will be temporarily laid
upon Nelson's tomb.
