SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS.

The debate on the third reading of the Established
' Church Bill was adjourned last night to Friday next.
Will it be believed that Sir Robert Inglis thinks a hard
' measure of justice has been dealt out to the Bishops ?
We have heard, indeed, that some of the Bishops are dis-
satisfied with their lot ; but we could hardly have conceived
that any one, not on the Episcopal Bench, would complain
of the inadequacy of the allowance. 'there is a strong
feeling that the subject had better be postponed to next
session:—Morning.
We are_ seriously afraid that the Chancellor of the Ex-
' chequer is not aware that the position which he appears
(inadverdently no doubt) to take up in respect of the Da-
nish Claims, is one fraught with incalculable future danger
to the Treasury. Originally those claims stood on the Pa
culiar ground that the aggression on Denmark was unpar-
ralleled, and that an infinitely larger sum of money had
been received by the nation in consequence of the aggres-
sion than would suffice for the act of common honesty—
that of compensating, by a very moderate sum, the B►itish
sufferers from the consequences of the •ag,gression. In
fact, the shipping claims which he disputes amount only to
150,000/. The Chancellor, however, in order to escape
this particular sum, so -justly claimed, has unfortunately
been advised to adopt, as the principle of compensation,
only thoSe cases where a foreign power has com-
mitted a wrong in contravention of the law of nations,
or the practice of this country, as, for instance, where the
foreign power does not pay its debts to British subjects
which the Danes, notwithstanding the third additional
article of the treaty 0f,181.4, which bound them to it, are
said not to have done. This will be joyful news for all
those who fire concerned in the loans of South America,
&c.—as also. for those British subjects who were illegally
detained in France from 1803. to 1814, contrary to the-
law of nations and practice of this country ; but to compen-
sate these, and a host of other similar cases, that peculiar
fund, the Danish prize-money, paid over to the Treasury,
large as it is, would not suffice—and we believe it would
be more politic, as it co tainly would .be more just, to
confine it to its legitimate application, to the compen-
sating the losses of ships and cargoes in the ports and close
seas of Denmark, which the Government, in the very act of
seizing the Danish merchantmen, knew must fall a sacrifice,
and by indemnifying which they alone could justify the
spoliation of the Danes. As, however, .the British nation
is to compensate the wrongs said to be committed by the
Danish Government, we must repeat the questions for-
merly put, and we hope that Messrs. Grote, Warburton,
&c., will consider them well :—Whether, if we indemnify
parties who have been wronged by others, as the book cre-
ditors are said to have been, ought we not, for stronger
reasons, to repair the injuries we ourselves have occasioned ?
or whether a wrong-doer is not more bound to repair a wilful
injury than a casual or inadvertent one, when the injury, in
each instance, arises from his original misfeasance ?
Morning Advertiser.

The further consideration of the report of the Chari-
table Trusts Bill was moved in the House of Commons last
night by Mr. V. Smith. The principle of the Bill is the
elective principle in the appointment of Trustees ; but that
each burgess shall have the right of voting but for one-half
the Trustees to be elected—and it also provides that none
but those locally interested should have the right of voting,
and that the Mayor of the different Corporations should
be the Chairman -of the Charitable Trusts, and have a
casting voice. The abuses practiced by the old Corpora-
tions, in respect to property intended for charitable pur-
poses, were so glaringly exposed by the Commissioners,
that we anticipated that the rankest Tory would not
have the shameless hardihood to attempt any delay to
the establishment of a better system for its regulation.
In this, however, as in most cases wherein we augur
favourably of the Tory tactics, we were mistaken.
Sir Robert Peel opposed the Bill, on the pretence that
it would be better to delay its consideration until next Ses-
sion, than to establish finally and irrevocably the principle
of popular election, and the connection of political bodies
—the Corporations, and the Trustees of Charities. We
have already so frequently exposed the absurdity of speak-
ing of any measure as " final or irrevocable," that we shall
not now stop to fling further ridicule upon such unmeaning
application of .terms. Colonel Sibthorpe proposed. as an
amendment, that the Bill be read that day six months ; but
in this he was defeated, Ministers having on the division a
majority of 45—the numbers being for the amendment 88,
against it 133. Thus perish all machinations against the
just appropriation of public money, and the perfect esta-
blishment of popular rights ! We cannot conclude our ob-
servations without referring our readers to the very able
and most convincing speech of Lord John Russell.—
Morning Advertiser,
O'Connelrs marauding incursion into Kent is no other-
wise worth a►Sother syllable of notice but as additional proof
of what we stated some weeks ago—viz., that the days of
the movement are numbered, and that the reaction of true
Conservatism has set in with a vigour which nothing hence-
. forth can resist. The mob which the fellow got about him
at Chatham would be grossly flattered by a comparison with
that which every day in the year one sees collected in some
by-streets of .London, by Punch and his respectable atten-
dants. It was not vigilance—it was nut fastidiousness—it
was not an active spirit of hostility, which kept evoyj indivi-
dual of the slightest pretension to decency of appearance,
habit, or charaotler, aloof from the trafficking enetnyof England
when he ventured among the men of Kent ; it was chronic
disgust—it was instinctive scorn. Those who feared any
tumultuous violence on the line of the rabble progress closed
their shutters, and saved their windows ; those who merely
hated contamination, held their noses and turned away.
As for the mountebank's own feelings upon this hundredth
failure, he has been mortification•proof too long to care
much about one more example of his hopeless banishment
from all communion with persons above the rank of day
labourers, or Whig placemen. Gentlemen, as a class,
have, in the Court phrase, ‘. rumped" him. In return he
detests them, and has vowed the overthrow of their order.
.With regard to England, his march has for many months
been retrograde. In Ireland he may give some further
trouble, but the manifest tendency of things in that country
is to a point of which Mr.. O'Connell, and others of his
stamp, will never wait to see the realization.—Times.

was occasioned -
It appeared that the mother
_of the infant was married to a sea-
faring man of the name of Downell on the day of the child's
death, which took place very suddenly. It was subsequently.-
ascertained that the poor babe bad been given some laudanum
for the purpose of lulling it to sleep ; the quantity adminis-
tered, however, proved to be too great a dose, and the little
infant died. Bath the mother and grandmother of the child swore
that they had not administered the laudanum—that it had been
left in the charge of some of the lodgers whilst the mother
~vent to be married. A phial, which had contained laudanum,
and wis in the mother's apartment, had been used on the day
the infant's death. Mr. Whitmore, a surgeon, proved that the
child died from ktlanum. The whole of the witnesses were
strictly cross-examined by the Coroner and Jury as. to the
treatment of the mother towards her infant, the result of
which did not ..,.o to show that she had since the birth ill.used
it. It could not be ascertained during the investigation who
had given the infant the laudanum. The Jury returned a ver-
diet " That the infant died from the effects of laudanum, ad-
ministered without any sinister intention, but by whom there
was no evidence to the Jury."
