' SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS.
Nothing can be more complete than the demonstration that
the Irish municipal franchise proposed by Sir Robert Peel
would have the effect of so mischievously limiting the consti-
tuencies as to deprive the Bill of all its proposed efficacy, and
utterly destroy its character as a popular, satisfactory, perma-
nent, and final measure. There is but one opinion upon the
subject amongst all who possess the slightest knowledge of
the state of Ireland, amongst whom, we think, the great bulk
of her representatives, the liberal portion of them, ought to
have no slight weight with a man so anxious as Sir Robert to
adjust the question to the contentment of the country, and
make it, to use his own words, " the foundation of peace."
We feel so little disposition to question the sincerity of the
Tory leader in expressing :this desire, that we cannot bring
ourselves to think he will persevere in fatally embarrassing this
great and important subject by obstinately insisting upon a
condition, agreement to which, whether on the part of
Ministers, or on the part of Ireland, he must now be con-
vinced is utterly hopeless and impossible. In the present
state of the Irish Municipal question, heavy will be the re-
sponsibility of the party which, should the attempt to settle a
prove a failure, would be justly answerable for so serious it
disaster ; and should the Tories continue to urge the adoption
of the qualification upon which they have taken their present
stand, we feel the most comfortable assurance that the burden
of that responsibility will not fall upon Ministers or their
friends. The straightforward sense and honesty that charac-
terize the great intelligent mass of the thinking people of
England will support, we are firmly convinced, the simple
proposition that if a Municipal Bill is to be passed for Ireland,
that Bill ought to be liberal in its provisions, popular in its
spirit, and, above all things, a measure calculated to
content and gratify the country for which it is in-
tended. The people of England will revolt from
the notion of thrusting a Bill upon Ireland, under
the specious name of a reform, which it is nonsense to suppose
the Irish people would accept in any other light than as the
imposition of a new grievance, or, at best, as no palliation of
the existing wrong. A single fact which Mr. O'Connell
stated the other night ought to suffice to remove all doubt as
to the practical operation of the municipal franchise proposed
by the Opposition. The town of Leeds, with a population of
160,000, has a municipal constituency of 25,000 voters ;
whereas in the city of Dublin, with a population of 265,000,
the municipal constituency created by Sir Robert Peel's quali-
fication would, upon the very largest calculation, amount to
5,000 at the very utmost. Now we put it to the country, is
this equality? Is this an approach to equal legislation? Is
it fair, or honest, or reasonable, or decent to propose a mea-
sure of municipal reform for Ireland, so narrow, so pitiful, so
utterly despicable and paltry, when we compare it with that
which we enjoy ourselves, and %Odell the Irish Re-
formers powerfully aided us in obtaining ? 'When will
the Tories open their eyes to the spirit of the Union, and the
measureless importance of identifying the fundamental laws
and liberties of the two countries? When will they cease to
regard with this stupid jealousy every extension of civil rights
and privileges to a people so closely connected with us as
the Irish? Whence this silly dread of committing the pav-
ing and lighting of an Irish town to a full representation of
its inhabitants? If there be any disposition in the people
of England to believe that a Municipal constituency, founded
upon a 51. qualification, would tear unhappy Ireland in
pieces, it is full time to enlarge St. Luke's. That there
is no dispcsition to any such folly we firmly believe ; the
" Thomite Dissenters" (craving pardon of the Standard)
are scarcely such idiots as to harbour apprehensions of a
nature so monstrously absurd, so inexpressibly contemptible.
In truth, the only danger is in limiting the franchise
.as
the Tories blindly and foolishly recommend. We see in-
calculable danger in re-constructing the Irish Corporations
upon an illiberal and narrow basis ; we see danger of the
most formidable kind in mocking Ireland with a Municipal
Bill remedial in its preamble only ; a sham reform ; a mea-
sure merely metamorphosing exclusion in one shape into ex.
elusion in another; a measure leaving the existing grievance
unredressed, and the present fountain of discontent and agita-
tion open. We care not whether it be the Catholics or the
Protestants who would be excluded by the unpopular qualifi-
cation suggested by Sir Robert Peel. In Munster the exclu-
sion would probably fall upon the former; in
Ulster upon the
latter. Our objection is to the exclusion not of this sect or
that, but to the exclusion of both, or, in other words, of
great body of the citizens and townsmen of each municipality,
to whose claim to participation in the power; of local govern-
ment no valid objection can exist, whose admission to that pri-
vilege is the great end of a free municipal system, yet in whose
feces the exorbitant qualification contended for would infallibly
shut the door. We are actuated by no desire either to exclude
the Protestants or to swamp them. Can some of the Tories
state with as much sincerity that it is not their object to ex-
clude or to swamp the Catholics ? For our part we take no
sectarian view of the question. Our plea is on behalf of the
population at large. If the Catholics are ten to one, that is
the fault of the Protestant persons not ours. It will be seen
by the lists of the division on Monday night, that Mr. Las-
celles and Mr. Baring Wall voted in the majority. It ought
to be known also, that Lord Elliot left the House without sot-
ingeas did Sir C. Coote, though both of them were present
during the debate. It is gratifying to learn that a strong feel-
ing does, in fact, exist on she part of many of the Tories, that
Sir Robert Peel was dealing unfairly towards the Irish in in-
sisting upon a qualification which even he at last admitted was
practically much more than 10/. We evinced by the recep-
tion we gave to Sir Robert Peel's conciliatory overtures,
that we are not 'disposed to judge uncharitably of him.
But what are we to think of his conduct? If he did not in-
tend to adopt the course best calculated to mark a disposition
to heap insult on Ireland, lie has a strange way of giving
effect to his wishes. And yet the Right lion. Baronet affected
to feel sore that he received credit for intending what was the
obvious tendency of his conduct. Why, if he did not mean to
insult the Irish, did he first raise their hopes by the penitential
tone he assumed in his overtures, merely to dash those hopes
to the ground by declaring that he would persist in demanding
a higher qualification for Ireland than for England and Scot-
land, for no conceivable reason than because the Irish are
chiefly Catholics? Mr. O'Connell professed himself ready to
take either the Scotch or English municipal system ; but the
Right Hon. Baronet will give the Irish neither; but insists
on a qualification much higher in reality than it purports to be
in name. It is insulting the Irish to suppose them so stupid
as to be gulled by his reasons, or so base as to acquiesce in his
conclusions. If the moderate of his owe party are ashamed of
his conduct, what may the Irish be expected to feel ? We
repeat, we trust the Right Hon. Baronet will repent once
more, and do justice to Ireland.-21forning Chronicle.
The Imprisonment for Debt Bill was, last night, read a
third time in the House of Lords. This measure, as our
readers may recollect, was referred in November last to a Se-
lect Committee, the members of which have bestowed great
pains on the consideration of its various provisions. The Lord
Chancellor stated, last night, the different alterations which
have been effected in the Bill, since it was first introduced.
The leading provisions of the measure are—the abolition of
arrest en mesne process, and the extension to creditors of the
power to compel their debtors to pass through the Insolvent
Court. Landed property, as well as property in the funds,
and shares in Companies, are rendered more extensively liable,
than they have hitherto been, to the claims of creditors, The
power of arrest in execution remains unaffected by the Bill.
Lord Ashburton professed himself convinced that a ne-
cessity existed, for perpetuating the law of arrest. In
a country like England, credit was indispensable; and
how could credit be maintained, if the law provided
no punishment for the dishonest contraction of debts ?
The smallest offence in another shape against the security of
property--a theft, for instance, although only of a ppcket-
handkerchief—subjected the perpetrator to severe penalties •
and he (Lord Ashburton) could not believe, that the appro-
priation of an honest tradesman's goods, by a person who had
no means of payment, ought to be permitted to pass un-
punished. It might be very agreeable for mere theorists to
deal out their generalities on this question ; but practical men
would, generally, be found favourable to the principle of the
law of arrest. Lord Brougham, in a speech of considerable
poser, replied to the objections of Lord Ashburton. The
Noble and Learned Lord begged, however, in the first plot+,
to declare that he did not exactly approve of the Bill before
the (louse ; although that Bill was calculated, undoubtedly,
to effect a great improvement on the. existing law. Ile
disapproved of the Bill, first, because its provisions were not
to be extended to Ireland-....and, in the second place, because
the system of arrest in execution was not to be abolished, as well
as the system of arrest in mesne process, As.to the observation
niade use of by Lord Ashburton, that imprisonment for
debt was obnoxious only to theorists—lie ( Lard Breualiam)
begged to declare, that in this matter he was no theorist, and
that. in this matter, moreover, his opinion; were shared by men
of the most practical cast of understanding. Of the witnesses
examined on the subject, all the men engaged in large whole-
sale businesses, were favourable to abolition nay, many shop-
keepers of an humbler class held the same views. It was,
however, a remarkable fact, that of the traders, who con-
tended for the advantages of the system of arrest, scarcely one
laid any stress on the process of arrest in execution. They
all upheld the value of arrest on mesne process—that is to say,
before the justice of the debt could, by possibility, be deter-
mined ; but arrest in execution—arrest, that is to say, after
the debt had been proved—seemed worthless in their eyes.
This little fact satisfied him ( Lord Brougham) that arrest on
mesne process was a system of unjustifiable tyranny ; and es
the process of arrest in execution was little prized by trades-
men creditors, why should any other class of men seek to perpe-
tuate it? Lord Brougham then proceeded to point out some
of the frightful consequences which flow from the system of
false credit which now prevails throughout society—a system
which is based on the imaginary security afforded to creditors
by the existing law of arrest ? It had been observed by the
Noble Lord ( Lord Ashburton) that people had no right to
run in debt, without the moans of discharging their ohligations.
True. But if one set of men was disposed, le run, wantonly
into debt, another set of men was disposed, under the -present
system, to give credit wantenly. The good r'estomere it is

On Thursday evening, pursuant to notice, Mr. O'Connell
is to move his Bill to terminate, frsm the Ist of August next,
the female slave apprenticeship a) stem. The arguments
urged by the friends of humanity in support of Sir Eardley
Wilmot's more comprehensive resolution, are, of course, appli-
cable, but in a stronger degree, to this limited branch of the
great question of negro emaneipatioa —inasmuch as this relates
to the sufferings, the degradation, the intolerable oppression
and misery of the weaker sex—the sex that on every shore, in
every clinic, peculiarly merits the sympathy and is entitled to
the protection of every being deserving the name of nian. A
Ministerial evening journal (the Courier) says, " Mr. O'Con-
Dell's Bill to terminate the apprenticeship of female negroes
is a nitre make-believe." We stop not to inquire what is Mr.
O'Connell's motive in bringing forward this question. If
his advocacy of the case of the female negroes be only a
pretence, as the Courier alleges, his conduct will probably
be such as to betray the insincerity of his purpose. It is suffi-
cient for us to know that the cause itself is good, let it be
brought forward by whom it may. Justice, Christian morality,
aid the best emotions of the human heart, plead strongly in
its favour. What need, then, to discuss the personal motives
of Mr. O'Connell; the merits of such a cause are its best ad-
vocacy, and, fail into what hands it may, we cannot but bct
litterested for its success. The enormous sum of twenty mil-
lions sterling was generously arid cheerfully raid by the British
people, under the impression that it was the full price of the
slaves' redemption from all the horrors—all the oppression—
all the degradation of bondage. Mistaken impression ! Sla-
very is but disguised under a new name, and we can look back
with a melancholy satisfaction to the time when we forewarned
the country that it would be so. Our opinions are on record
from the beginning against this apprenticeship system, We,
over and over again, stated that it would turn out to be only
slavery under another name. We differed then from a largo
body of philanthropists who placed more faith in Whig
assurances than we were disposed to do ; but now they sea
their mistake, and we assist them to endeavour to repair it.
In speaking of the grant of the twenty millions for negro
emancipation, the Government journal—the Globe—said the
other day, " We believe the country is far from regretting an
instance. of generosity which has done honour to England in
the eyes of the whole world." If evidence of superior
gulli-
bility, in parting with vast sums of money without value re-
ceived, constitutes a claim to national distinction, the English
nation has certainly earned that distinction in many ways. In
flinging away her gold into the bottomless pits of Spanish and
Greek and Russo-Dutch loans, and in paying vast sums of
money to other governments to obtain the suppression of the
foreign slave trade, which now flourishes more vigorously than
ever, England has established a claim to the character of gene-
rous credulity beyond any nation that ever existed ; but her ca-
pacity for being duped out of millions without obtaining any
of the benefit for the most oppressed of mankind, of which
that money was to be the purchase, was never more signally
displayed than in her bargain for the abolition of negro slavery.
Well may the Treasury journal point its little sarcasm at the
" generosity" of a people whom its patrons have so egregiously
cajoled out of their money upon a false pretence ! 'The twenty
millions have melted away, but the moral abomination of
negro slavery, which was to have been abated, remains as
gigantic a nuisance as ever. But having paid that immense
sum to procure the abolition of West Indian slavery, the
country, as we observed the other day, is taxed to the
amount of more than three millions annually to keep up the
system of slave-labour which the twenty millions ready cash
was paid to put down I This taxation is paid upon one article
of West Indian produce only. Out of the pockets of the
people of England are upwards of three millions taken every
year for the encouragement of slave-labour in the article of
sugar. If we take into account the monopoly-tax upon
c, Wee, the annual sum which the British people pay for the
p! ivilege of consuming, in these two articles, the produce of
slave labour, amounts to upward :of four millions. The lines
of tire poet Cowper are still as applicable to forced labour
under the apprenticeship system as they were to the tear-
watered soil of slavery before it took a new name :
" Think ye, masters iron-hearted
Lolling at your jovial boards,
Think how many backs have smarted
Tor the sweets your cane affords,"
The scourge has not been struck frown the: hands of oppres-
sion, as we contended it ought. It is only transferred from
the hand of the plantar or the driver to one who is but too fre-
quently the tool of both. How is, the application of the man-
degrading lash to qualify the slave for freedom ? It is for the
produce of labour, coerced and stimulated by the lash, that the
people of England are taxed upwards of four millions annu-
ally. Surely under these circumstances the planters, at least,
ai e Nt:i the party tvronyed. This large amount of taxation
ashes out of the bounty paid on the exportation of refined
sugar, and the protecting duties, which ensure a monopoly of
the sugar and coffee market at borne to the planters, pro-
ducing such au effect upon the prices in this country, that,
if it were not for these duties the people would be able
to purchase their sugar at about two-pence per pound
cheaper than it is at present. What a burden upon the
less affluent classes of society is two-pence the pound in that
article alone. We have now before us a little work upon this
subject which says, " it is not perhaps generally known that
a considerable portion of the sugar brought into this country
is not consumed here, but is again exported after liming been
refined. 'rids at first sight might be difficult to account for,
especially if taken in connection with the fact that there are
other sugars brought into the continental markets of a much
lower price than ours. But its order to enable the West Indian
merchants to reduce the prices of their sugar so as to compete
aith those, our Government gives them a bounty on all that
is exported, wibch amounts to a very large sum per annum,
and which is of course just so much paid out of' the treasury
of the country. This bounty allows the merchants engaged in
the trade to export their sugars at a much lower price than they
get for the same qualities at home, and this price is actually
between three amid four shillings below the cost of the raw ma-
terial. In fact, it is a sum of money paid indirectly to en-
courage the planters to produce a certain quantity MOM than,
at the present high prices, is necessary for /ionic consumption.
As the effect of this system is to keep up the prices in this
country, the planters are induced by their own int4rest to urge
their managers and overseers to send home the utmost their
estates can produce, and thus an additional stimulus is given
to work out the already overworked apprentice, and the
bounty becomes a premium fur the continuance of slavery
in our West Indian possessions." This bounty is esti-
mated at the average annual amount of upwards of 360,0001.
Isking an average of the ten )ears preceding 1833, as to
the Tiantity of refined sugar exported from this country.
It would lead us to a greater length than our space will
=row to enter into the detailed calculation. Suffice It to
say, that the Government returns upon the refined sugar for
exportation, not merely the drawback of 245. per cwt., which
is the import duty, but a sum which is eelculatecl at about
435. 2d. As, however, it requires more than a cwt. of sugar
to make a cwt, of refined, the bounty must be taken as some-
what less then the differc»ce between these SEMIS. That dif-
feeenee is 19s. 2d., and allowing 2a. 2d, to go with the draw-
back for the reason we have mentioned, the actual bounty paid
out of the public' treasury is 17s. per cwt. ; and as the annual
quantity of refined sugar exported is, on the as erage, 425,000
cwt„ that figure multiplied by I as., gives 361,2501.
Then, the duty imposed upon foreign sugar to pro-
tect the interests of the planter, amounts to a prohibi-
tion. If the duty on foreign sugar were reduced to a
level with that OR On the \Vest India sugar, it would cost
the public in the home market about less per cyst. less than at
present. The sugar imported from our colonies in 1835
was 211,191 tons, which being reduced 1.55, per cwt.,
would be equivalent to taking off a tax amounting to
3,221,8651. per annum. Besides it should not be left out of
the account that the consumption would increase with the fall
of price, and as every ton of increase would pay 245. duty, the
revenue would be cosrespondingly benefited, 'rime probably
increase is calculated at 1,000,000/. per annum. As to theta;
on coffee, it is calculated at 556,000/. per annum.
The great result then stands thus :

Thus we see that upwards of 4,000,0001. sterling are annu-
ally taken out of the pockets of the people to encourage slave
labour. To which if we add the 1,000,0001. that would be
gained by increased consumption at a lower price, we may
estimate the loss to the country at upwards of -;

read extracts from the evidence before that Committee which
astounded every Member of the House of Commons who had
already been familiar with them. Mr. Lane, the treasurer
for the city of Cork, a man of (so called) liberal politics, who
had always voted for candidates of the O'Connell tail—.this
gentleman acknowledged that in fact the 10/. franchise in
Cork was a delusion ; that among the constituency of that
citsv, no fewer than 365 persons were registered as voters, whose
houses were rated of less value than 101. ; that of those whose
houses were not rated at all, and therefore must have been
of less t/.'an 51. value, 119 had exercised the rights of
electors, and many of those who for the purpose of claiming
the elective franchise had sworn their houses to be of the value
of 10/. afterwards, when the question of rating for municipal
purposes came, swore that the same houses were not worth Si.
Now, is not this decisive as to the impudence of demanding
institutions similar in name to those of England, where there
is, and can be, from the different nature and habits and mo-
rals of the people, no similarity in substance ? Is net this
an abundant justification of Sir Robert Peel's principle, that
in Ireland we must have guarantees against falsehood and
wickedness which are not required here ? Is Sir Robert
as a protector of the laws of Ireland, of the freedom of
election, and of a true representation of the people in Parlia-
ment, not bound to guard the elective franchise against the
frauds of men who will swear one day for the sake of
voting that their house is worth 101., and the next day,
under the fear cf rating (to save a
,few miserable shil-
lings of local tar), will swear that the identical house
is not worth 51., obtaining in both cases an easy absolu-
tion from the priest, who directs their votes, and who is said to
be no friend to those taxes whereby he does not personally
profit ? We say this is the real state of the Irish elective fran-
chise, and that it is a mere farce to talk of " assimilating in-
stitutions" between that country and Great Britain, by apply-
ing the same words of an Act of Parliament to each, when the
same words produce in each effects so entirely opposite. But
the mere objection offered by Lord John Russell to the enact-
ing e qualification of 10/, and measuring it by a 101 rate, was
that from certain usages in Ireland difEring from those of
England, and certain charges failing upon the Irish tenant,
which are bone by the landlord here, the Irish tenant must
in reality possess a holding worth considerably more than 10/.
before it can be subjected to a rate of that amount. To this
it was answered, with the utmost frankness and integrity, by
Sir Robert Peel and Sir William Follett, that what
they wanted, and what they would accept, was a quail
fication constituted by premises of 101. and no more ; that
they did not contemplate a fiction under cover of the law,
any more than they would tolerate fictions in violation of the
law, and that they would he as repugnant to call for the occu-
pation of a house north 121 in satisfaction ofa 10/. franchise, as
they ttonld be to recognize it valid qualification in a house worth
only 8/. vale n the law required IN. Sir Robert Peel and Sir
William Follett urther declared that the Conservatives would
be perfectly satisfied with any adjus!msnt or management of
the voting which should ascertain the value of the house to be
10/. and no more as a sufficient qualification. 'Phis, !weever,
we take leave to judge, will net answer the views of Mr.
Daniel O'Connell, nor ;via any settlement of the franchise
which shuts the door egainst fraud. The learned fact-and-
loose player has given notice, that he will move to strike out
of the Bill ar, provision for Rquisia any specific value as the
basis of the Irish franchise. Of course, no such thing as a
qualification to he determined otherwise than by the oath, or,
in other words, the conseience of tile psrty himself, will ..uit
O'Connell. '3.'he Cork fashion will do best for him. But
still Parliament countenance the iniquity? Never.— Times.
It will be seen that Mr. Wyse has placed the, following no-
tic referring to dust most es,:nntial object the establishment
of a oathmal .5) stern of education, on the notiee-ho,)k of the
House of .Correntins for discussion to-morrow night:--" Ad-
dress to her Majesty, that she said be graciously pleased to
appoint a Boaed of Commissioners of Education iu Erigisn‘l,
with the view especially of provid'ng for the wise, equitable,
and efficient epolicatioa of Mims granted or to be grsnted for
the advanceim.nt of Education by Parliament." The late
transactions 1,, Kent—and the melancholy superstition they
exhibit—demonstrate the necessity. as well as urgency, which
exists for the accomplishment or tame great and uniform mea-
sure of popular educasion. Lori Brougham took thie view cf
the matter when referring to it oa Thursday night is the
House of Lords ; and he pointedly said that, " when his
Bill for a system of national education should be brought
forward next week, he lilted to have advocacy and
support (in consequence of those transactions) from
many of those who had been hitherto lukewarm or
opposed to hie comprehensive measure of education."
We have lately had the strongest proofs that can be
experimentally adduced of the power of education in
repressing crime. The criminal returns of the Metropolitan
Police for the last year have proved it beyond all question.
From these official documents it appears that of the persons
taken into custody who could neither read nor write, and who
amounted to 15,463 males and 13,033 females, 6,783 males
and 5,073 females were summarily convicted, and 656 males
and 364 females were tried and convicted. It further ap-
pears that of "such as had received sup,-rior instruction, out
of 1,032, only 23 males and females were tried and convicted;
that out of the whole number there were only 31 females sub-
jeeted to committal, and that out of those only three were sum-
marily convicted, and none tried and convicted." A more trium-
phant demonstration of the beneficial power of education in
checking the growth of crime, and ameliorating the morals of
society, was never submitted to the public. Our ancestors
might well assign some merit to "benefit of clergy." There
can be no longer a question that the obstruction of education
is tantamount to the obstruction of religion and morality, and
to the encouragement of irreligion, crime, and vice. To faci-
litate and diffuse the soarces of education should be, in the
present condition of society throughout the world, the pri-
mary object of the philanthropist and the Statesman. What-
ever the exclusive bigotry of ecclesiastical selfishness may
pretend, an educated and instructed people will always be a
moral and religious people. Education contributes to the
success and profit of the manufacturer, the mechanic, and the
artisan, as well as to social morality. Ignorance of the laws
of matter is not the road to good workmanship. The at-
tractions of debasing indulgences .
will always
be super-
seded by the growth intellectual improvement. No
more certain castigator of the corruptions of society and
the tn.:due severities of our criminal code would be found than
the schoolmaster. Education would alone mitigate the cri-
minal laws and supersede to a great degree the punishment of
death, by rxidering its application unnecessary. It would
not only frustrate the inflammatory arts of such a visionary
demagogue as the mock Sir William Courteeay, but it would
render nugatory the arts of coder and abler charlatans, whose
means of operation are found in the ignorance of the people.
A corrupted freeman would, it. the midst of a highly educated
peoplo, be considered as something less or worse than man.
A high sense of patriotic honour and self respect would be
the feeling produced by establishing such a comprehensive
system of education as Mr. Wyse proposes. Such 'a feeling
once engendered, there will be an end of all future offers of

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, JUNE 12,

BLUNT V. HARWOOD, SCOTT, AND SIR HERBERT JENNER.
In this case a lute had been obtained for a prohibition to be issued to
Sir Herbert Jenner, commanding him to proceed no further in a suit
relating to church rates, in which the other parties were engaged, The
affidavits stated that in 1830 some of the inhabitants of the parish of
Streatham conceiving that there was not sufficient accommodation in
the church of that parish, and being desirous of enlarging the church
for the purpose of increasing the amount of that accommodation, had
held a vestry meeting, and after some discussion had referred the matter
to a committee. That committee had made a report, and a notice
was then given of a vestry meeting to take the report into considera-
tion. This meeting was held ; a resolution to enlarge the church
was passed, and another to borrow money at interest for that
purpose; and a rate was imposed on the parish to pay interest en
the money borrowed, and finally to repay that money itself. In 1836
Mr. Harwood refused to pay that rate, and he was then libelled in the
Ecclesiastical Court. Mr. Harwood took an objection to the insuffi-
ciency of the notice underwhich the meeting that resolved on borrowing
the money and raising the rate to pay it had been held. The Ecclesias-
tical Court had held the notice to be sufficient, and had made a decree
accordingly. The present application was then made, with the view of
preventing that decree from being enforced.

Sir W. FOLLETT showed cause against the rule.—Rule discharged.
WILLIAMS V. PAXTON.

Mr. J. JERVIi moved for a rule to show cause why an order of Mr.
Justice Coleridge, giving the defendant in this case ten days further
time to plead, without imposing any condition as to taking short notice
of trial, should not be set aside. This was an action for a malicious
prosecution, brought by one of the parties who had recently been tried
atthe Central Criminal Court on a charge of conspiring to forge a will.
She was tho servant of Mr. Williams, the principal defendant. The
declaration in this case was delivered on the 29th of May, and if the
defendant had pleaded in proper time, the issue might have been made
up, and the trial could have come off at the sittings atter this Term ;
but the order now complained of would have the effect of throwing the
case over the long vacation.—Rule refused.

HITCIki:CIS V. WALFOUD.

This was an action brought against the Rector of a parish in North-
amptonshire to recover the value of certain tombstones erected in me.
mory of the plaintiff's father and other members of his family, who were
buried in the church-yard of the parish. It appeared on the tai t! that
the tombstones had been removed by the order of the defendant, for the
purpose of convert ng Ora portion of the church-yard into a burial-place
for the poor. The cause was tried by Mr. Justice Littledale, at the last
Assizes for Northampton, when a verdict was found for the plaintifF.
A rule nisi for a nonsuit or a new trial had been obtained by Mr. Ser-
geant Goulburn last Tcrm. Mr. Sergeant Addams was to.day about to
show cause against the rule, when

The COURT suggested that the best course would be to enter a
stet J:rocessus, but the Learned Counsel on both sides wished the
ease to stand over, as their clieWs ivere not present, in order that

joke, therefore, thi.t the subject has been taken up
`seriously by the Earl of DEVON, who is to be as-
sisted in the inquiry by nearly all the Law Lords,
and by a number of Peers who are chairmen at quar-
ter-sessions. A check may easily be devised against un-
due severity, or the freaks and insolence of office, by de-
claring that all summary convictions must be made before
two ►magistrates, and that police-offices shall be open to the
public, and by a proper selection on the part of the Home
Secretary of men to fill these offices—men, not only
"learned in the law," but possessing common-sense and
common humanity. The conduct of some defunct and
some displaced magistrates showed that these latter quali-
fications were the last things that Lord SIDMOUTH
thought of.

The Imprisonment for Debt Bill was read a third time
in the House of Lords last night. Although the Bill is
very different from what it was when it passed the House
of Commons last Session, and falls far short of the expec-
tations of the country, inasmuch as it only partially
abolishes imprisonment for debt, still it is matter of con-
gratulation that the Lords have sanctioned a measure
which must be considered as a vast improvement upon the
present barbarous system.

The Bill as it now stands, and as it will in all proba-
bility become law, abolishes arrest on nicsne process, except
in cases where it is sworn that the debtor is meditating
flight. This seems the amount of the benefit which it confers
on the debtor, and which we willingly admit to be very great.
In lieu of this concession, the creditor receives an equiva-
lent which ought in all conscience to satisfy him. As the
law now stands, a creditor can only take one half the
profits of his debtor's freehold estate ; whereas the Bill
gives him, a year after judgment shall have been obtained, the
privilege of being paid out of the freehold itself, sold under
the superintendence of the Court of Chancery. Copyhold
property is to be dealt with in like manner. Various other
kinds of property, such as property in the public Funds,
Shares in Companies, Promissory-notes, Bills of Exchange,
&c., which are now beyond the reach of the creditor—have
been rendered available to the satisfaction of his claims.
Besides all this new security for payment, the creditor is
to retain the power of arrest in execution, in order, it is
alleged, to prevent the fraud that would be practised
by unprincipled debtors, who might either conceal
their property, or invest it in foreign securities, when they
found themselves pressed by the law at home.
Another important provision of the new measure is, that
it empowers the creditor, after the person of his debtor
has been taken in execution and imprisoned twenty-one
days, to make him pass through the Insolvent Court (if he
does not himself adopt that course), by which means
his property becomes vested in an assignee for the benefit
of all his creditors.

Such are the chief features of the measure. It will be
seen by our Parliamentary report that no opposition
was made to the third reading. Lord ABINGER made some
observations in his usual way, and very similar to those which
might be expected to fall from an attorney of the lowest
grade, whose mind is incapable of taking an enlarged view of
a subject, or of rising an inch above the pettiest details.
Creditors, said this Sage of the Exchequer, will not like the
Bill because it weakens their securities, and debtors will
hate it because it compels them to give up the property
which they want to keep. Here is a legal logician for you.
Were there ever two propositions more directly opposed to
each other

The article which we copy from the Herald on Mr.
O'CoNNELL's motion, which stands for to-morrow, and on
the influence of the monopoly of our market, which we
concede to the West Indians, together with the bounty
which is given them on refined sugar exported, makes it
unnecessary and injudicious in us to write at length, as we
intended, on the same subjects. Mr. O'CoNNELL's motion
goes to put an end to the slavery of a'l females on the
Ist of August next, and that motion must, we think, be suc-
cessful. We cannot conceive an assembly of Englishmen
decreeing the continued slavery of a large body of women. If
t hey had the power, who can doubt that they would instantly
liberate the enslaved inmates of the harem ; and having the
power, i❑ the case of the West Indies, we cannot doubt
that they will liberate women from the slavery of sugar cul-
tivation, and the horrors of the tread-mill. Mr. O'CONNELL
is backed on this question by Protestant Britain as well as
Catholic Ireland, and the high moral sense of the commu-
nity will enable him to overcome the technical difficulties
which technical men will seek to put in his way.

important communications from the SULTAN to the BEY.
The same letter intimates that the British residents at
Tunis had promised the BEY that some ships of war would
be sent to his assistance from Malta.
The review of the National Guards on Sunday passed
off very orderly. We copy from G alignani's Messenger of
Monday a brief, but not uninteresting account of it :
The legions of the National Guards, of Paris and the Panlieue, and
troops of the line, forming the garrison of the capital, were yesterday
mustered at an early hour, and by nine o'clock had marched in succes
.ion to the ground allotted to them. The Legions of Paris were sta-
tioned in the Court of the Tuileries of the Place du Carrousel. Those
of the Banlieue were ranged along the Quai des Tuileries, and the troops
along the Place de la Concorde, the Quai d'Orsay, from the Pont de la
Concorde, to the Pont des Invslides, arid on the esplanade of the Hos-
pital. Soon after nine the Dukes of Orleans and Nemours proceeded to
inspect the troops. At a quarter past eleven the King, accompanied by
the Duke d'Aumale and Duke Alexander of Wurtemburg, followed by
all the Ministers, Marshals Soult, Melitor, Lobar', and Gerard, with
a numerous staff of Generals, proceeded along the whole of the
lines, receiving as he went loud arid reiterated cries of " Vice
le Rol." This occupied the King till soon after one, when his
Majesty took his station at the foot of the obelisk, fronting the Tuilerir s,
and was followed by the Queen and Princesses in a carriage. Here the
legions of the National Guards, the infantry of the line, the cavalry, and
artillery, passed before his Majesty in review order. His Majesty ap-
peared in excellent health. The day was exceedingly fine, and the
whole passed without disorder. The utmost precautions were taken;
all the avenues were closely guarded, and no person was permitted to
come within a certain distance of the ground without special leave. The
gardens of the Tuileries were closed to the public, and only Peers, De-
puties and persons provided with tickets were allowed to enter. It was
half-past four when the King returned to the Tuileries. In the evening
the whole of the staff and the superior officers of the National Guards and
the troops reviewed had the honour of dining with the King and Royal
Family.
The subjoined extracts include the only intelligence

A journal of this morning says " never was money more plentiful, or
the state of commerce more satisfactory than at this moment. The Bank
of France has now in its vaults specie to the amount ofabout three hun-
dred millions, and bills to the amount of one hundred millions ; of bills

news of some serious action in 'Navarre was expected at the Pretender's
head quarters. The division of the Ribero, which was waiting near

the point of coming to action with the divisions of Guergue, Garcia,
and Carmona.

endeavour to effect a landing on the coast of Spain. A promise is made
to Don Carlos that if he should succeed in making himself master of
some place in the kingdom of Valencia, a legion of Russian volunteers

German Papers of the latest dates have reached us
this morning. According to advices from Hanover, of the
2d instant, the Chambers have alarmed the KING, by
adopting so many changes in the form of the new Consti-
tution, as already to render it more democratical than the
Constitution of 1833. The following is the only intelli-
gence of any moment communicated from the north of
Europe :

ST. PETERSBURG, MAY 25.—Count Nesselrode is to leave Petersburg,
on the 2d of next month, and goes to Berlin, where he will stop a week,
and then proceed to Carlsbad, where he will remain till the Emperor
return from the South of Germany. ➢I. V. Brunoff, and three other
officers:of the Foreign Department, will accompany the Vice_ChancrL
lor. M. V. Budowoneki will conduct the affairs of the Foreign Depart-
ment, during the Count's absence. :As far as we know here, the Emperor
will stop a fortnight at Berlin, then accompany the Empress to Silesia,
and spend three weeks with her there. From Silesia his Majesty thinks
of going to Warsaw, whence he will return to Silesia to accompany the
Empress to Kreuth, near Munich, after which, their Imperial Majesties
will again honour Berlin with their presence, and then return direct to
this city, so that we may hope to have the Imperial family again amongst
us in the course of Cctober.

IN TEE MATTER OF HALL, A SUPPOSED LUNATIC.
In this case, which has been several times before the Court, a palt"
had been presented to the Lord Chancellor, for a Commission of Lunar)
against a lady of the name of Hall. The petition had been heard op
former day, when we gave all the facts; and the matter was ordered tc

not be come to between the parties,
Sir WILLIAM HORNE said that no arrangement having been come t°,,
it now became his duty to oppose the Commission, which he did tll,l

Mr. IVIIITMARSII followed on the same side.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said he would dispose of the case Oil
first seal day after Term if some arrangement (which Ise thought would
be the better course) was not come to in the mean time. It certaill!Y
would be better for all parties a Commission should be avoided ; but in
order to effect that it must be clearly shown to his Lord'hir
that the person and property of the lunatic was properly taken care ei•
