Sir R. PEEL said the matter wis made of import:ll%er
nv_irely by the exclusion.-Cflear, hear.) Surely it might.
be done away with now without fear..
The Hon. Baronet begged to ask the Noble Lord, as be
cnderstood the Tithe CominutatiOn Bill was fixed for Wed-
nesday, whether it was his intention that the Hpuse should
go into Committee pro fiwnza, or that the discussion should
take place on that evening.
Lord JOHN RUSSELL said, as be did not anticipate
.my ohjeetion to the-coarse lie proposed to go into Com-
,nittee pro forma, at the same time it was his ilAcntion to
state upon that occasion the alterations he intended to

propose.
• Sir R. PEEL bcmgcd to know whether the Tithe Com-
mutation Bill watdsupersede the Mutiny Bill.
• Lord JOHN RUSSELL replied in the negative. The
Mutiny Bill should be the first business of the evening.

Major HANCOURT gave notice that he would propose

CHANCERY REFORM.

Mr. PEMBERTON begged-to ask the Noble Lord,
whether the measure for reforming the Court or Chancery
was to be introduced in this or the other House of Parlia-
ment, and when it was to be brought fi►rward? lie un-
derstood that a vacancy had occurred in one of the Mas-
terships in Chancery. He (Mr. Pemberton,) trusted that
the vacancy wculd not be filled up as some important
changes was highly necessary in that department.
Lord J. RUSSELL begged to state that the measure
relating-to the Court of Chancery would be introduced in
the other House of Parliament, and he believed his Noble
Friend, the Lord Chancellor, would to-morrow give netice
of the time on which it would be introduced. The Hon.
Member was quite right in suggesting that no appointment
to the vacant Mastership should take place till the details of the
measure were before the public, it was not the intention of his
Majesty's Government to make any appointment at present.

WHO KILLED COCK ROBIN?

Oh I who was the rogue, with heart steeled to remorse,
Who blew up King William from off his high horse ?
'Twas some Tory, 4, I guess," who, in rage or in sport,
Tried this second effect of an Orange report. M.
From another source we learn that the members of the
Corporation have resolved upon offering a reward of 2001.
for the apprehension and conviction of the ruffians who blew
up the statue, and .50/. for any private information that may
lead to a discovery.

The quantity of powder used to blow up so mighty a sub-
stance (nearly 13 cwt. of lead) must have been immense.
The lamps in the neighbourhood were completely extin-
guished, and several panes of glass broken in the adjoining
houses.

His Excellency the Lord-Lieutenant has been closeted
for a long time with the Under Secretary of State, Mr.
Drummond, and the Attorney-General ; the result is that
a proclamation will issue this evening, offering a reward of
5004 for the apprehension and conviction of those concerned
in the outrage.

BETTS'S PATENT BRANDY.

THE futility of all attempts to produce a Spirit
equal in purity to the PATENT BRANDY, is dearly
proved by the fact that the reports which have been obtained upon
all other productions submitted to the analysis of chemists have
been such as the partis have not dared to publish. Whilst the
testimonials of many of tho most eminent in that profession, in fa-
vour of the PATENT BRANDY, which have never, in a single
instance, been called in question—have established it as essentially
pure, and free from those injurious qualities, which exist even in
the first classes of Foreign Brandy ; thus entitling it to the ex-
clusive support and recommendation of the medical profession.
As Distillers, J. T. BETTS and Co. cannot send out less than
two Gallons of their PATENT BRANDY ; which may be ob-
tained at Eighteen Shillings per Imperial Gallon, of the highest
legal strength, at the Distillery, No. 7, Smithfield-Bars, leading to
St. John-street, which is their only Establishment.

ORDNANCE ESTIMATES.

Lord JOHN RUSSELL moved the Order of the Day,
for the house going into a Committee of Supply on the
Ordnance Estimates.
The House then went into Committee, Mr. R. STUART
in the Chair.
Sir A. LEITH HAY said, in bringing the Ordnance
Estimates under the consideration of the Committee, it
would not be necessary to preface them by any lengthened
observations,and he would merely state that every expenditure
had been carefully examined, and every circumstance con-
nected with them looked into with a due regard to the
efficiency of the public service, and to economy
in every department. The vote for the present
year would be 52,6101. less than that of the last. This
saving was occasioned by various causes, which would be
scan 1;y reference to the votes themselves, but from this
there would be deducted a sum of 20,0001., by which it
was found necessary to encrease the vote for the store de-
partment, so that the actual reduction would be 32,6101.
The amount of the vote for stores last year was not so
great as the sum proposed for this, which was .20,0001.,
but that was the aggregate of the whole, and in it was in-
cluded a sum of 5,0001. for arm, the sum required for arms
which it was found necessary to increase, in consequence of the

IRELAND.

ORANGEISM.—EXPLOSION.—At midnight, on Thursday,
the Statue of King William in College-green, having been
previously charged with a heavy load of gunpowder, was
blown from the horse, and prostrated on the pavement. Of
the wickedness of the miscreants who planned and executed
this achievement, it is needless to speak. Many lives might
have been lost, and buildings blown down, if proper pains
had not been previously taken to measure the loading of the
Statue with the amount of the mischief to be done. It was
not, as it would seem, the intention of the conspirators to
blow up the Bank, or lay St. Andrew's Church in the dust,
or bury the adjoining houses and their inmates in ruins. No,
they calculated exactly the loading ; the object was alone to
displace the Statue, with'a view to public excitement, and
and not altogether a Fiesehi conspiracy, which might include
other persons besides that of the King.—Dublin E. Post.

TAXES ON KNOWLEDGE.

Mr. JOHN MAXWELL presented petitions from
several places in Lanarkshire, praying for a repeal of all the
taxes on knowledge.
HANDLOOM WEAVERS.

The HON. ,MEMBER then presented petitions from
12,000 handloom weavers, praying that some measure of
relief would be extended to them. The Hon. Member
observed, that having given notice of a motion on the sub-
ject, he trusted his I\4jesty's Ministers would grant some
measure of relief to this distressed class of operatives.
AGRICULTURAL DISTRESS.

The Marquis of CHANDOS gave notice that on the
House going into a Committee of Supply on Friday, the
2.-2 d of April, he would call its attention to the distressed
state in which the Agricultural Interest of the country was
placed.
Captain BARCLAY presented a petition from an indi-
vidual in Gloucestershire, .aganst the Gloucester Railway
Bill.
All the pritate business for the day having been disposed
of, and there being no petitions to present, the business
of the House was completely suspended from half-past four
to five o'clock, at which hour Lord John Russell took
his scat on the Treasury bench.
TITHES COMMUTATION BILL.

Lord J. RUSSELL said that in moving that the Order
of the Day for going into Committee on the Tithes Com-
mutation Bill be discharged, he would take that opportu-
nity of stating, with respect to this Bill, he did not intend
tl propose to go into Committee pro forma upon it this
evening ; but he moved that it be committed, pro forma, on
Wednesday next, and he would then state the general
substance of the alterations he proposed to make when so
committed. The further consideration of the Bill in Com-
mittee, he proposed to take on Thursday, the 21st instant.
lie merely moved that it be committed pro forma, in order
that it might be delivered as soon as possible in a printed
form.

eland still to weep over their lifeless children, and her
orphans still to scream in famine and destitution ? Is
that lovety land, marked by nature with all the finest fea-
tures that ever adorned a country, thus to be consigned to
destitution and wretchedness ?--( Loud applause.) Oh, have
you seen her lovely plains, her sequestered vales, her mighty
mountains ; have you heard the murmur of her streams, as
they have descended from the steeps, speaking, as it were,
with the voice of eternity, and proclaiming bow much had
been done for Ireland by God, and how little by man?—
(Loud and continued applause.) What, then, do I want?
1 want to be upon an equal footing with you ; I want to put
the eight millions of Irish upon the same footing as the six-
teen millions of British subjects.—(Cheers.) I want them
to surround the throne for its security, and to protect the
constitution in perfect stability.--(Cheers.) I want a real
union between the two islands, for the Irish Channel to be
dried up by the force of affection, and that England, Ireland,
and Scotland, rejoicing in equal liberties, equal laws, equal
prosperity, may become what they ought to be—the envy
and admiration of the world. The Hon. and Learned Gen-
tleman resumed his seat amidst loud and long continued
applause.
Mr. O'CONNELL rose, and, in a complimentary speech,
proposed " The candidates at the last election, successful

The toast was drunk with three times three.

The Hon. C. J. DUNDAS, M.P., and Mr. BARKLEY se-

warmest approbation of the meeting.
Several other toasts were proposed, among which were

Stewards," &e. Sz.c. Mr. O'Connell and the other guests

York to dine with his friend Leonard Simpson, Esq., and
also for the purpose of addressing the inhabitants publicly.

NEW COURT.

A true bill was returned this afternoon against Jacob
Corm'', Thomas Charles Forbes, and six others, on the pro-
secution of Lawrence Levy, for a conspiracy in depriving
him of his rights under the deed in the Victoria Theatre.
On the motion of Mr. CLARKSON, the Court ordered
that each of the defendants should enter into their own re-
cognizances of 500/. each, with two sureties of 250/. each.
Forty-eight hours' notice of bail to be given to Mr. Noel,
the solicitor to the plaintiff.
William Pitt, a remarkably good-looking and interesting
boy, aged 13, was indicted for stealing from his father,
William Pitt, the sum of Ils. 2d.
The prosecutor stated that the prisoner had repeatedly
robbed him of money which he had given to his mother,
who was in the hospital, and who encouraged him. Pro-
secutor had been married sixteen years, but had been for
some time separated from her.
The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty.
Mr. COMNION-SERJEANT—Pray, what have you to say
for yourself? Boy—My father lives with another woman,
Sir.

Mr. COMMON-SERJEANT--Oh, I see how it is. He has
turned away his wife to live with another woman, and now
wishes to get rid of his son.
Prosecutor—No, Sir, that is not the case.
Mr. COMMON-SERJEANT—Pray, Sir, do you not live
with another woman ? Prosecutor—l have a woman for
housekeeper. {Laughter, and murmurs of indignation.)
Mr, COMMON-SERJEANT-Oh, I understand it, Sir ; I

see the housekeeper affair as clearly s the nose on my face.
—(Laughter.) You turn out your wife in order to take
another woman into the house, and then you wish to get
rid of your boy by throwing him on us.
Several of the Jury here expressed their most decided
disapprobation of the prosecutor's conduct.
Mr. COMMON-SERJEA.NT—It is not too late for the Jury
to retract their verdict. A verdict may be recalled within
five minutes of its delivery. There is a case on record in
which the Jury retracted their verdict three minutes after
its being returned, in consequence of having made a mis-
take ; but in the present case there is no mistake, for, had
the Jury kcown the circumstances, I am sure they would
not have considered the boy guilty-of felony.
Several of the jury—Certainly not.
Boy—My father has had a child by the woman he lives
with.

Prosecutor—No, no ; no such thing.
Mr. COMMON-SEnJEANT—Has the woman had a child
Prosecutor—Yes, but not to me.

Mr. COMMON-S ERJEA;T--f0 whom, then? Prosecutor
—To her husband. . _ _

Mr. COMMON.S;RJEANT—What, then, she is married ?
Prosecutor—Yes.
Mr. COMMON-SERJEANT—And where is her husband?
Prosecutor—Living with another woman, Sir.--(Laughter
and expressions of indignation.)
Mr. COMMON-SEaJEANT—It is no wonder the boy
should, in such circumstances, commit theft. We must see
what can be done for him.
One of the jury (to the prosecutor)—Your conduct, Sir,
is perfectly disgraceful.
Mr. COMMON-SERJEA NT—Stand down, Sir.

consequence of the capricious detention by the intendant at that

to take no goods to any Spanish port for the present.

as principal, and the latter as accVstiiiita,the *oter ()I
a male child, at Cheltenham, on Jan. I WM' T-hefirst wit-
ness examined on the trial was Mrs. Biggs, in whose hou.v
the woman, Sherrington, lodged, and was confined. lot
cross-examination she deposed that the prisoner, after her-
confinement, was very ill, and light-headed, and did not.
sometimes, know where she ivas. She seemed very fond of
the child ;' though so badly off as that sometimes she had.
no food but what they gave her, and often had only dry
bread for three days together. She had plenty of clothing
of every sort fur the child. She had pawned her own
things to pay for her lodgings. She was often for a whole,
day without speaking. When she came back the even-
ing of Jan. 19th, she did not appear to be " reiii2v sensible."
In reply to the Judge,.the witness said, the prim, ner might
have raised money by the sale of the clothes she had pre-
pared for the baby, to buy food for herself ; but she said
she would not distress the baby.
Mr. A. Burkett, resident surgeon of Cheltenham Dis-
pensary, examined—l remember a male child being bro:sght
there by the constables on the night of January 23. I
.should have thought it three or four months old, it wins
yasch „: fine child ; there was a handkerchief tied round its!
neck with a double knot under the right ear. It had the
appearaneg of
...tieing just taken out of the water. In my
opinion strangulatio
41'
n was the cause of the death of the
child, most probably
roduced by the tightening of the
handkerchief. The doubL
knot pressed on the jugular
vein. Mary Powell and Sarai:
Biggs came there to identify
the child. _ _ _

The Learned JUDGE, in summing- up, said—ln this case
there were great peculiarities. In by I:tr the majority of
such inquiries, the prominent feature was /I desire of con-
cealment of her situation by the mother. the present
case, all the evidence had an opposite tendency ; in the,
first place, the prisoner had provided all necessary articles
of clothing for her offspring, even beyond her means ; and
after birth, when she herself was in a destitute and ,almost
starving condition, she declined to relieve her own .-cost
lamentable state f destitution, but preferred to exist urn'
charity, and for days together upon dry bread, to trespass-
ing upon the comforts of her child ; and this feeling of
affection towards it continued from the first hour to the last
moment that it was seen alive. Upon the two facts of
there being no attempt at concealment, and he; fondness
for her infant, they had no doubt.
Verdict—Not Guilty, on the ground of Insanity; and,
by direction of his Lordship, T. Smith Not Guilty.
Smith was discharged ; but the verdict precludes the
liberation of the female prisoner, who will have to remain
in custody possibly for life.—Chellenhant Journal.

VICISSITUDES OF FORTUNE.-It is not more
singular than true, that in a parish not one hundred miles
from the Royal Exchange, one of the paupers, who formerly
kept- a large coffee-house in that neighbourhood, is at this
time receiving parish relief; and the overseer whose duty it
is
to relieve him, was formerly his porter, and at this time is
master of the same coffee-house. We feel for and pity this
poor man, who formerly relieved the poor in the same room in
wfitch he at this time receives his own pauper allowance.

ELECTION OF SHERIFFS.

A Common Hall was held this day for the purpose of
electing Sheriffs, Chamberlains, and other corporate officers
for the City of London, for the ensuing year.
At one o'clock the Lord Mayor, Aldermen, Recorder, and
the City-officers, appeared upon the hustings, and were re-
ceived with cheers. _

vv
Proclamation having been made in the usual manner,
The RECORDER came forward and addressed the meeting.
They were assembled, according to annual custom, to elect
Sheriffs and other City-officers. He would beg to read to
them a resolution, which had been passed at a Common-
Council on the 22d June last, recommending the abolition of
the office of Ale-conner, on the death or resignation of the
present holder.
The Lord Mayor and Aldermen having retired,
The COMMON- SERJEANT read the list of those eligible to be
elected to the office of Sheriff.
Mr. Alderman JOHNSTON, whose name was first on the list,
begged to be.excused from serving.
Mr. TRAVERS then came forward to propose Mr. James
Duke, coal-factor, as a fit and proper person to serve the office
of sheriff. Mr. Travers alluded to the public conduct of Mr.
Duke, which he said had been always characterized by an
anxious desire to promote the welfare and the best interests
of his fellow-citzens.—( Hear, hear. )
Mr. B. Woon seconded the proposition, and bore testimony
to the independence and integrity of character of Mr. Duke.
Mr. WILSON proposed Mr. Tegg, who was also a trades-
man of the city of London, and who had realized a fortune, as
a fit person to serve the office of sheriff.
Mr. TYERS seconded the motion.
Mr. Deputy BLACKIE had been requested by Mr. Alderman
Thomas Wood to beg that he might be excused from serving.—

( Hear. )
Mr. PRIOR apologised for Mr. Alderman White, who also
begged to be excused from serving.
Thelist of names was then gone through, and the Sheriffs
declared that the show of hands was in favour of Messrs.
Duke and Tegg, and these gentlemen were declared duly
elected.
Sir James Shaw was proposed as Chamberlain for the en-
suing year, which was carried unanimously.
Sir JAMES SHAW returned thanks.
The Bridgemasters, Aleconners, and other officers were then
appointed, after which the Common Hall was dissolved.
