Mayor of London making his appeal from the
hustings for the suffrages of the electors
of the capital, the present Chief Magistrate has
secured to himself personally the respect and the
high estimation of his fellow•citizens, without any
distinction whatever of party or class, of politics or
religion.
Considering the ignominious defeat of the Protec-
tionists scarcely a fortnight since—and that, moreover,
in the person of one of their most amiable and accom-
plished advocates—there is but little probability that
the Country Faction will have the hardihood to enter
upon another such Quixotic adventure. The good
tits have not yet forgotten that most telling quota-
tion from the school-bred verses of the Young Eng-
land aristocrat—
" Let wealth and commerce, laws and learning die,
But save us still our old nobility."
And but few have borne in remembrance the extenu-
ating response of Lord JOHN MANNERS, that he would
rather have been the silly stripling who had penned
those lines than the grey-headed old man who had so
ungenerously quoted them against him on that occa-
sion. Altogether the recent struggle between the
opposing candidates of ultra-Conservatism and of
Civil and Religious Liberality tended so glaringly to
the discomfiture of the former, that we cannot for a
moment anticipate their making themselves still
more ridiculous by bringing forward any candidate
in opposition to the Chief Magistrate.
Unless some men are more desperate or more fool-

hardy than we can conjecture, Sir JAMES DUKE will
not encounter the smallest obstacle in becoming the
representative of that great capital in which he is al-
ready the highest municipal functionary. To employ
the common but expressive slang of electioneering, he
will have nothing more difficult to accomplish, as far
as we can yet anticipate, than to walk over the course.
When the returning officer shall have declared Sir
JAMES DUKE to have been duly elected in
the room of the late respected Mr. PAT-
TisoN, Boston will have had the satisfaction
overaction
of seeing her Member not only chosen to preside
the capital of England as Lord Mayor, but to repre-
sent the electors of London in the Commons House of
Parliament. 'We may, without rashly hazarding an
opinion, even now congratulate his present consti-
tuency, by anticipation, on the simultaneous triumphs
of their representative on the two great national
arenas of commerce and legislation. Such a
confirmation of the justice of their selection
is seldom reserved for the electors in any
borough of the United Kingdom. In the
present instance that good fortune appears to
have befallen the inhabitants of Boston ; and upon
that circumstance they may with very good rea-
son felicitate themselves. Satisfied as to the ulti-
mate decision of the great metropolitan constitu-
ency, we are convinced that we shall have an
opportunity before many days have elapsed of offer-
ing our congratulations Alike to the Right Honourable
the LORD MAYOR, to the electors of Boston, and to
the citizens of London.

It is difficult to understand the motives by which
the House of Lords were last night induced to muti-
late the Poor Relief (Ireland) Bill. Its most im-
portant provisions have been rejected. Everything
of real importance calculated to produce beneficial

results, and to lay the foundation of a better state of
things in Ireland, has been omitted. It will
clearly be impossible for the House of Com-
mons to accept the measure thus neutralised,
and every effort for the regeneration of the
sister kingdom must be postponed for another
year, and its miserable inhabitants must sustain
twelve months of additional suffering, unless their
Lordships should repent even at the eleventh hour,
and consent to the re-admission of the rejected
clauses.

For some time it has been notorious that their
Lordships would repudiate any Liberal measure, on
behalf of which there was not a decided pressure
from without, where the nation had not exhibited an
unequivocal determination to obtain its enactment.
Notwithstanding the boasting of the Protectionist
press and the vauntings of -Protectionist orators,
the Peers did not dare to disappoint the general feel-
ing in favour of the further extension of free trade

principles. They did not venture to maintain the

Navigation Code in all its stringency ; and, there-
fore, despite the reckless and headstrong conduct of
some of their body, they yielded a reluctant assent to
the great and comprehensive measure that recently
became the law of the land. Deep was the indignation
felt by these parties at what they were pleased to
term the timid and vacillating course pursued by
the more prudent Lords, who bowed to the will of the
nation, clearly and unequivocally expressed, and who
sanctioned by their votes, or at least abstained from
opposing, the great measure of reform brought for-
ward during the present session. They appeared,
however, determined to oppose with all their energies
every other Ministerial undertaking, and, unhappily
for their own credit and character, and for the stabi-
lity and power of the hereditary branch of the Legis-
lature, an opportunity was but too speedily afforded of
venting their ire.

A measure was sent to their House by
a large and decisive majority of the representatives
of the people, having for its object the removal of the
last vestige of religious intolerance, and the admission
of an honourable and influential class to the constitu-

tional privileges of free-born citizens. In coming to
this just and liberal decision, the House of Commons
but endorsed the resolution of the greatest constitu-
ency not only in the empire, but in the world, whoin
selecting Baron LIONEL DE ROTHSCHILD as
their representative declared, in the most
impressive : terms, that the period had ar-
rived when civil and religious disabilities
should no longer be maintained, that every man
should be at liberty to worship his CREATOR in the
manner which in his soul and conscience he deemed
most acceptable to the DEITY. In rejecting the Jews
Bill, the Lords not only expressed their adhesion
to the obsolete doctrines of religious intolerance, but
they wantonly entered into a serious collision, not
only with the House of Commons, but with the
electors of the British metropolis. Nobly have those
electors discharged the duty imposed on them by this
unwise and impolitic conduct, and the triumphant re-
election of Baron ROTHSCHILD has convinced the
nation of the calm acd unflinching determination of
those who have been placed in the vanguard of the
Army of Freedom, and of the impossibility of their
Lordships long maintaining the unequal contest. It
is but reasonable to suppose, that the return of Baron
ROTHSCHILD bitterly aggravated the exaspera-
tion of those who had previously negatived
the Bill, by convincing them of the slight
estimation in which they were held by the commu-
nity in general, and of the painful necessity ol
patiently swallowing their leek, however repugnant
or disagreeable.
In the present instance, unfortunately, the conse-
quences of delay will be of a much more formidable
character than in the Jewish Bill. There, ultimate
success being certain, the parties could afford to smile
at the paltry impediments thrown in their way
by the Dame Partington effort to keep back
the tide of public opinion, with aristocratic brooms.
But here a people, suffering under the continued
horrors of pestilence and famine, are told that they
must endure their miseries for another year, in order
that the hereditary Legislators may exhibit their
paltry spite against the Ministry, to whom they have
been forced to succumb on so many previous
occasions. Although the condition of the
Irish people was, indeed, desperate it
consistedi
t was
by no means hopeless, and that
chiefly, if not altogether, in attracting British enter-
prise and British capital to assist in the regeneration
of the country, to provide remunerative employment
for the myriads of starving labourers who were both
able and willing to work, if the opportunity were
afforded, and to restore, by proper cultivation, the
natural fertility and productiveness of the soil.
But in order to induce Englishmen to embark
their capital in the attempt, and to enter
on the arduous undertaking, two things were neces-
sary : first, that clear, simple, and unimpeach-
able titles should be given of the properties they
might be induced to purchase, so that they might
have a certainty that they would be permitted to

enjoy that for which they contracted ; and, secondly,
that some maximum should be fixed, beyond which

they could not be called on to contribute for the

relief of the poor, for otherwise the entire
proceeds of their industry might be taken
away, to compensate for the neglect and
apathy of their neighbours. The incumbered
estates would have supplied the first desideratum,
the maximum clause in the Poor Relief Bill the
second.

Although the Lords' amendment of the Incum-
bered Estates Act would limit the operation of that
most important measure, still it would not impair its
efficiency whenever it came into effect. Although,
therefore, the extent of capital that would flow into
the country through that Act would be re-
stricted, it was not altogether excluded.
But by the amendment of last night, which was car-
ried by a majority of nine, the responsibility for
poor-rates is to remain wholly without limitation.
The effect of this decision, unless speedily rescinded,
will be to scare away English capital, and, as a ne-
cessary result, to complete the ruin of unhappy Ire-
land ; for, as Lord CLARENDON truly remarked in his
admirable letter to the LORD lthron of London, the
condition of things cannot remain stationary.
They must either speedily advance or rapidly
retrograde. The Peers of England have for-
, bidden the advance. They will be justly re-
sponsible for the fearful consequences that must
ensue. Perhaps, when acquainted with the wide-
spread desolation produced by their division, they
may regret that they did not enter on the duty of
legislation in a calmer and more statesmanlike spirit ;
that they did not calculate the too probable results
of their conduct. These regrets may, however,
be too late, the repentance too tardy. The
next question to be asked may possibly be
not merely " What is the use of a House
of Lords ?" but why should any body of persons be
permitted to control and retard the beneficent legis-
lation of the chosen representatives of the people ?
There is, however, yet time to change their determi-
nation, and to re-introduce the clauses which were
last night omitted from the Bill.

The Committee of Spanish American Bondholders
received yesterday a letter from their agent in Mexico,
Mr. W. P. Robertson, in which that gentleman states,
that upon the meeting of the Congress, in extra ses-
sion, on the first instant, the plan for arranging
the debt will be submitted, and that a remittance of
20,000 dollars is coming to hand, and that a further sum
has been collected.
The ISt. Katharine Dock proprietors have had their
half-yearly meeting to-day, and a dividend at the rate
of four per cent. per annum has been declared.

and 931 for Account. Exchequer-bills are 475. to
503. prem. Bank Stock is 199 to 200.

GENERAL LYIKG IN HOSPITAL, LAMBETH. —A
quarterly meeting of the governors of this charity was
held yesterday, at the institution, York-road ; T. S.
Cocks, jun., Esq., M.P., in the chair. The secretary,
Mr. W. W. Hastings, read the minutes of the weekly
meetings of the committee during the last quarter, and
a statement of the present condition of the funds of the
hospital. On the 30th of June there remained a balance
of 7361. in the hands of Messrs. Drummond, and of
169/. 18s. Bd. with Messrs. Cocks. In the year 1848
the number of patients relieved was—hi-door 335, out-
door 489. Up to the present period of the current
year, 162 in-door and 240 out-door patients have received
assistance. The average cost of each patient is esti-
mated at 21. 9L 6d., and the average length of time an
in-door patient remains in the hospital is 21 days. The
Rev. Mr. Lewis having resigned his office of chaplain to
the institution, the Rev. Mr. Abraham Peet was appointed
his successor. A vote of thanks to. Mr. Lewis for his
past services was proposed by Dr. Rigby, and seconded
by Mr. S. George, and carried unanimously. In conse-
quence of the increased number of applicants who have
received relief, and the diminution of annual subscribers,
the funds of the charity have been so much impaired as
to render it necessary to effect some retrenchment in the
expenses; and with this view a committee, consisting of
Messrs. Bernard, Langton, Forrest, and Grissell, had
been appointed to report on the propriety o f diminishing
the number of recomnendations for relief at present
allowed to governors and subscribers, as well as on the
general expenses of the hospital. The committee not
having concluded their investigation a resolution was
passed granting them prolonged time. It was stated
that the governors are entitled in all to 530 recommen-
dations for in-door relief, while the funds last year were
sufficient to afford relit f to but 335 applicants. A vote
of thanks to the chairman was then passed, and the
meeting terminated.
THE CHOLERA IN MILLBANR PaisoN.—Yesterday
Mr. Langhani, the Deputy -Coroner for Westminster,
held six more inquests in the M
bodies of an equal number of convicts who died therein.
lt
on
ou the
al
Four of the deaths were occasioned from Asiatic cholera,
but as the evidence in each case differedin not the least
degree from what has already appearedilbat
in Prison,
his journal
respecting the deaths of other prisoners from the same
disorder, it is unnecessary to repeat it. The Coroner,
in making inquiries as to the state of the prison, was in-
formed by Dr. Baly that he had reported the state of the
prison to the Horne-office, and had recommended that
one-half of the prisoners should be removed to a more
healthy place, but a great difficulty arose on that head,
on account of the cholera raging at Woolwich, Ports-
mouth, and other places. The Government have, how-
ever, found a barrack in an isolated part of the country,
to which place, in a day or two, 500 of the convicts will
be removed, The Coroner and, jury said they were glad
to hear the provision which the Government had made
to arrest the progress of the disease.
