THE FUND S.-(THIS DAY).

Cl7'Y, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
Charleston Papers to the 15th April have been received,
from which we give the following extracts :-
64 NA ITHEZ, MARCH 31—TExAs :—Col. Childers arrived
last evening froM Texas, and gives us the following authentic
particulars of the late disastrous affair at Alamo. The only
individual that escaped was a negro servant of Colonel Travis.
He states that all the Texeans fell fighting valiantly to the
last, with the exception of Colonel Bowie, who being sick,
was butchered in his bed, and a soldier who during the mas-
sacre concealed himself; but on coming out, and claiming the
protection of Santa Anna, was shot by his orders. We are
glad to contradict the report that some of the Texeans laid
violent hands on themselves. They sold their lives dearly, and
that barbarian Santa Anna and his savage hordes will long
remember the terrible fight. Colonel Fannin, with 800 men,
was at La Bahia, and felt confident that in case of an attack
he could make a successful resistance. General Houston was
on the Colorado, with a force of 2,500 men. We should have
stated that Mr. Dickenson fell into the hands of the Mexi-
cans, and was sent to General Houston's camp, After the
slaughter, Santa Anna in person ordered tl bodies of the
slain to be thrown in a pile and burned,"
Our arrivals this morning are the French and Hamburgh

CUSTOM OF GAVELKIND.

On Friday last at a public meeting at Canterbury, held
in the Guildhall, Mr. Sandys insisted that the Customs of
Gavelkind were founded in nature, in reason, and in jus-
tice—that the partible descent of lands was universal among
the nations of antiquity—that it obtained among the
Jews, tho Greeks, the Romans, and the various kingdoms
founded upon the ruin of the Roman empire—that it pre-
vailed universally throughout England at the time of the
Norman Conquest, and has continued to the present day,
in the county of Kent, unaffected and unimpaired by the
encroachments of the feudal system. Mr. Sandys then
commented with some severity upon the law of ./-ritne-
geniture.

- The meeting took place to petition against the Bill now
before the House of Commons " for abolishing customary
modes of Descent, 'and the taking of Hcriots in specie."

SUICIDE AT THE CAVALRY BARRACKS.--00
Saturday afternoon, at half-past four o'clock, an inquest was
held before Mr. May, coroner for the county, at the canteen of
the Windsor Cavalry barracks, on the body of Mr. John Bell;
the mess-master of the Royal Horse Guards. It appeared that
the deceased, who was upwards of 50 years of age, had been
about thirty years in the regiment, for the last twenty sir of
which he had been confidentially employed by the officers in
his situation in the mess, and he was very generally resnP-ci.ea
by all in the regiment. Far some time back he had
'oeeil very
nervous, which was increased by his r!sorti7,,
to habits of drnk-
ing, Last Christmas-day his wir:-u'ied, and since then het had
been in a very desponding way. About twelve months ago he
attempted to drown himself in tho. Serpentine, in Hyde-park,
but his life was then salmi An Vriday morning, about eight

effect. The jury returned a verdict, " That the deceased hung

CHURCH OF ENGLAND BIBLE ONLY
ASSOCIATION.

" We have a Popish Liturgy."—Lord Chatham.
God the Son ! God the Holy Ghost ! Trinity !! ! What has
a Protestant Church to do with these babblins of Tradition ?
Have we no Sacred Oracles for our guides in diction as well as in
doctrine? Is it, in the opinion of any Bible-only Christian, a
mere " question of words and verses,' whether we call " the
Blessed and only Potentate" God or Abracadabra ? Or, unhappily,
is the language of inspiration, on the fundamental and leading
doctrines of the Gospel, so scant, so ambiguous—nay, so likely to
mislead every where else but in its own records, that we must in-
vert its titles, supply its omissions, and remedy its defects, before
we can safely admit it into our formularies of faith, and even of
devotion? *Was the doctrine of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,
so charily or incorrectly worded by our Saviour, and by all his
Apostles, that verily we know not how to promulgate it in its in-
tegrity or purity, without the arbitrary intromission of this or that
embellishment of " man's wisdom ?" But if we may or must take
these liberties with the word of God—what! is all the rest of our
Liturgy itself quite heterodox in point of expression, with the ex-
ception of this little unique morceau. in one of its central pages ?
Are two out of three of our Creeds thus heterodox? Is every
Collect but one thus heterodox? Are all our Doxologies thus
heterodox? It may be thought or said by a few members of our
fraternity, that Trinitarianism would vanish at once if we parted
with this little, single, and singular outbreak of its characteristic
nomenclature. Where then was Trinitarianism visible but in
prospect for the first two hundred years of Christianity ? Must
our Saviour, it may be further asked, have been a Unitarian ?
Must all his immediate Missionaries have been Unitarians? Must
the Church, throughout its golden age, have been 1104414 n ?
Then let. us unanimously fling our heresy to the winds, But, be
this as it may, God the Son—God the Holy Ghost—Trinity—are
beyond all question as much out of their proper latitude and
element in a Protestant Liturgy, as " the God of our Lord Jesus
Christ" would be hi a Roman Catholic Missal.

ROWING MA7'Cif

A very good rowing match took place yesterday between J.
Godfrey and Dick Tisdale, of Waterloo Bridge. It was
nothing but a foul wager ; and though from the start at Wa-
terloo Bridge, round the pier of Vauxhall, and hack to Strand-
lane, it was every thing but rowing--it was all tactics, and
Tisdale was the best general ; but the other outrowcd him,
that is, when the other did not succeed in " picking him up,"
Godfrey won by superior stamina, but his.opponent might he to
the other scale if he had a month's training. h w won by
about three yards.

The Emperor of Russia has sent to this country an

THE HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY'S GARDENS.—
On Saturday the first exhibition of flowers, and first distribu-
tion of prizes for the season, took place at the Society's gar-
dens at Chiswick. The extreme fineness of the day, espe-
cially after the late long period of unfavourable weather, at.
tracted ono of the most numerous and fashionable assemblages
which ever graced the gardens. It was computed that there
were between 8,000 and 9,000 persons present. All the roads
in the neighbourhood were thronged with carriages, cabriolets,
&c. The gardens were crowded until six o'clock, when the
company began to separate. The exhibition of flowers was
one of the best we have witnessed for a long time, and called
forth the admiration of all present.
FIRE AT BARON HILL.—On Thursday morning,
Sir Richard Bulkeley, who had been attending Chester races
the whole week, received the melancholy intelligence, by ex-
press, that his recently erected Hall, at Baron Hill, in Angle-
sea, was totally destroyed by fire. The old hall, we under-
stand, was rased some time since, and a splendid new edifice
has been erected on its site, which was in a state approaching
completion. Fires were constantly kept,.to prepare it for the
reception of the family, and on Wednesday night, at eight
o'clock, every thing was safe, but by six o'clock on Thursday
morning the whole was one mass of fire, and we hear has been
totally destroyed.
stinclaT afternoon, as a gcntiman was walking
down toish.strent Hill, with 000 eye shut and the other looking
through a piece of darkened glass at the eclipse, two men,
with their hot Sunday's dinners in their hands, came running
past, and came in contact with the astronomer, who was too
much absorbed in calculations to see who was coming, until jit
felt the hot gravy progressing down his a. 119

DANISH CLAIMS.

Mr. CLAY presented a petition of which he bad given
notice from certain persons who had sustained losses by the
seizure of their ships and property in Denmark in the
year 1807.—(Hear, hear.) The petitioner complained
that their losses were wholly occasioned by the Acts
of the British Government, who had encouraged them to
carry on a traffic with the Baltic, in contravention of the
law of nations. The petitioners prayed for enquiry into
their case, and trusted the House would afford them re-
dress.. The Hon. Member concluded by giving notice that
on Tuesday the 31st of May, he should call the attention
of the House to the subject matter of the petition, and
and move that it be referred to a Select Committee.

Mr. YOUNG had been requested to support the prayer
of the petitice. He had previously given notice of his in-
tention, if no other Hon. Member would do so, of calling
the attention of the House to the subject of the Danish
claims, and he was glad to find that the subject had been
taken up by the I-lon. Member for the Tower Hamlets.
Mr. W. JONES and some other Hon. Members pre-
sented petitions in favour of the better observance of the
Sabbath.

Mr. A. TREVOR presented a petition from Stockton-
on-Tees, in favour of the Bill introduced by the Hon.
Bart. (the Member for Wigtonshire) for the better obser-
Mr.ce of the Sabbath. He (Mr. Trevor) felt it his duty
to state that he could not give that Bill his support.
Mr. T. WAKLEY presented a petition from Wake-
field, praying for the total repeal of the Stamp Duties on
Newspapers, and praying the House to take steps for the
release of all those persons now in -custody for selling uu-
stamped Newspapers.
Mr. M. PHILIPS presented a petition from Thomas
Potter and other Directors of some Company in Manches-
ter, against that part of the Consolidated Stamp Bill which
abolishes composition, except with the Bank of England,
and praying that no duty might be imposed upon the transfer
of shares. _

Sir WM. FOLLETT presented a petition from an in-
dividual in Exeter, against the Registration of Births,
Deaths, and Marriages' Bill, or if it was passed, that he
might be appoio;.ed Registrar under it.
Mr. ALSTON gave notice, that to-morrow be should
move for an extension of the time for the Committee on
the Blackwall Commercial, a;:d Northern Railways, to
make their Report till the 6th of .76!:47.
Mr. DUND AS presented a petition from York for the
better observance of the Sabbath.

In the Longs' ti e motion for the recommitment oi
declared that Le would resist the Bill in its present
in all its future stages, and that he should move the thirde

O'Connell, Esq. not duly elected, and that Messrs. West
the House of

Hay moved the further consideration of the Trinity
Harbour and Docks Bill ; upon which the Attorney General moved that the further comideration of the BO
be postponed for three weeks, in order that the Committee
about to be appointed to inquire into the state of Leith
Harbour should have an opportunity of making their re:
port. After some discussion the amendment was rejeatd
by a majority of 153.' Mr. Bannerman moved that
the Aberdeen Schools Bill be referred back to the
Select Committee which had already reported upon it.
On a division the-motion was carried by a majority of 511-
Several questions were asked respecting the business of
the House ; in answer to which, thC Chancellor of the Es-
chequer said, that he hoped to bring forward the Pu}:lie
Works (Ireland) Bill in a few days, and that he slmuld
move the commitment of the Stamp Duty Bill OD Friday.
The Attorney-General said he should bring on the Regis-
tration of Voters Bill to-day or on Friday. The remain-
der of the evening was almost wholly occupied with a dis-
cussion on Mr. chuck's motion re.ating to Canada. Sir
G. Grey admitted that the greatest share of self-govern-
went that could be conceded to Canada, consistently With
the independence of the British Crown, ought to be give')

Bill.

of the duty on Newspapers ; also, a petition from the
Churchwardens of Lambeth against the Turnpike Trust
Consolidation Bill.
JEWISH DISABILITIES.

The HON. MEMBER then presented a petition from an
individual, praying that no Bill with reference to the remo-
val of Jewish Disabilities, might pass into a law. The
Hon. Member state] he could not concur in the prayer of
the petition.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER—Sir,
I rise to give notice that, on the Tuesday after the Holi-
days,'l shall move for leave to bring in a Bill to remove
the civil disabilities affecting his Majesty's Jewish subjects.
—( Hear, hear, hear.)
Mr. WILBRAHAM presented a petition from a pa-
rish, Ole name of which we did not hear, complaining of
injury 'to their right. of franchise, in consequence of the
conduct of 1::e Revising Barristers under the Registry Bill.
lie hoped the Attorney-General would take means to reme-
dy the evil in the new Act.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL.—If the Honourable
Gentleman will introduce a clause, declaring that the Bar-
risters shall do no wrong ; and if he will undertake to
make it effectual, lie will most decidedly have my sup-
port. But if he only declares by it that the Barristers
Will not act in a particular way, and yet leave them to the
exercise of their own judgment, I fear his object cannot be
attained.

NEWCASTLE AND NORTH SHIELDS RAIL-

WAY.

On the motion of an HON. ME MEER the further conside-
ration of the report of this Bill was proceeded with.
Mr. YOUNG felt it his duty to move that the further
progress of the Bill should be deferred till this day six
months.
Mr. BELL having had the conducting of the Bill, felt
bound to state that this was a mere speculation
the report from the Committee showed an expected
profit of 33,000/. per annum.—(Hear, hear, hear.)
The public would not suffer in the least from the tax on
the carriage on coals, as it was a mere question between the
shareholder and the ldndowner. The coals would be

SOAP v. STAMPS.

Sir C. KNIGHTLEY wished to know from the Right
Hon. Gentleman, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, when
he intended to bring forward the repeal of the stamp duties
upon Newspapers, as he (Sir C. K.) had a motion to
make in the way of an amendment to repeal the duty upon
soap instead of the duty upon Newspapers.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER pro-
posed before the holidays to commit the Bill pro furled,
say on Friday next ; but he would fix the discussion
to come on between the Honourable Baronet
and himself' for the first Friday after the holidays. On that
day he would move that the House do resolve itself into a
Committee upon the Excise Acts, as well as the Stamp
Acts, in order, to give the Hon. Baronet an opportunity
of moving his propositiob as a substantive one, and also to
give him the most favourable opportunity of taking the opi-
nion of the Houk upon it.

HAND-LOOM- WEAVERS.

Mr. J. MAXWELL wished to know from tho Right
Hon. Gentleman Opposite (Mr. P. Thomson) wheti:er it
would be convenient to allow his motion to come on to-night.
It was tt motion to which many thousands looked forward
with interest.
Mr. P. THOMPSON objected to the Bill being read
a second time without any discussion.
MUNICIPAL ACTS AMENDMENTS BILL.
The House then held a Conference with the Lords for the
purpose of stating. their reasons why they dissented
from their Lordships' amendments to the above Bill.
Mr. MAXWELL then said he would put it to the
Chair whether he had not a right some time in the course
of the evening to move the second reading of the Bill he
had the conduct of?
The SPEAKER, as we understood him, said it rested
with the House to decide whether it would go on with the
Bill or not. •
Mr. HINDLEY observed that the measure was one
affecting the interests of 800,000 persoDs, and he was sure
flat every Member of that House must be ;anxious to have
his sentiments upon it recorded.
POST OFFICE.
Mr. HUTT begged to ask the Right Hon. the Chancellor.
of the Exchequer, whether it was the intention of the Post
Office to make any regulations for the extension of the limits
within which letters were delivered free of extra charge.
Two or three years since it was admitted that the present
arrangement was a grievance, and that some •new system
was necessary.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER was not
aware that any general measure was in progress, but ha
knew that there was a very great disposition on Oe part
oF the Post-office to extend the existing limits.'

The clause was then agreed to.
Mr. WILSON JONES moved as a proviso to clause 11
that no part of the tithe property belonged to the sees of
St. Asaph and Bangor shall be applied to the general pur-
poses of the Bill, but shall be appropriated to the spiritual
wants of those dioceses in such way as he recommended by
the Commissioners.
Sir L. PARRY cordially supported the motion.
Lord JOHN RUSSELL thought that the reasons
which he had urged against the former proposition were
equally applicable to this he would not therefore trouble
the house with repeating them.
Mr. C. W. WYNN would recommend his Hon. Friend
to withdraw his motion.
Mr. WILSON JONES consented to withdraw his
•
motion.

Sir L. PARRY hoped tjiat his Hon. Friend would not
do so until he had received a promise from the Noble
Lord that the suggestion of his Right Hon. Friend should
be attended to.

The motion was then withdrawn, and the clause was
agreed to.

The remaining clauses ►rere then severally put and
agreed to.

- Mr. JERVIS then brought up a clause to the effect
that his Majesty should appoint Commissioners to examine
clergymen' nominated to any benefice in Wales, to see that
no clergymen not fully conversant with the Welsh lan-
guage be appointed to any see or benefice in that country.
The clause was added to the Bill.
The House then resumed, and the Bill was ordered to
be reported on Friday.
