It was rumoured in the capital that the Duke of

The last circumstance I shall mention in connexion with
Leeds is that of the savings-banks; but I must say that the
amount of deposits in the savings-banks is no good test, as
yet, of the actual condition of the people, because it is well
known to all who are acquainted with the habits of the work
mg classes, that in bad times they pledge their clothes and
their furniture in order to maintain themselves and their
families during the period of depression, and that the first
application of their money, on a return of prosperity, is to
recover those articles with which for a time necessity has
compelled them to part.—(Hear, hear.) But nevertheless I
have taken the deposits and the withdrawals from the
savings-banks for a month in each of the years
1847 and 1848. From April 20, to May 20, 1847,
the amount deposited was 3,1211., and the amount
withdrawn 4,904/. In 1848, deposited 3,1821. ; with-
drawn, 6,8781. (this being the year of the Chartist out 7,
breaks), and in 1849 the sum deposited. was 3,404/. ; with-
drawn, 3,713/. At Bradford the number of persons relieved
in the four weeks of May, 1848, were respectively 5,258,
5,122, 5,231, 5,427. In the same period in 1849, tbe num-
bers were-2,135, 2,120, 2,065, 2,110. The average weekly
expenditure in the former period was 276/. ; in tbe latter,
113/. At Huddersfield the wages paid at Bradley-mills in
May, 1847, was 530/. ; in May, 1848, 850/. ; and in May,
1849, 1,300/. If you go through a large proportion of the
towns in the manufacturing districts you will find the same
condition of things as I have just described, and therefore I
must say I should like to know where the Hon. Gentleman
has got his information as to the great distress existing in
those parts of the country. In the Huddersfield union, the
persons receiving out-door relief, above ..sixteen years of age,
were, in the tour weeks of May,—

read with great pleasure your generous and
elo9uetit appeal in behalf of the gallant Hungarians.
It is not much that I can contribute, but I will sub
scribe all I can for these noble fellows at Fulkstone.
and will try what I can do amongst my friends, for the
case is extreme, and the cause holy. Will you, Sir,
undertake to receive subscriptions? It so, I have faith
to believe sour glorious call to English generosity will
be promptly attended to.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SIR, —An article in the Allgemeine Zeitung, some few
weeks since, containing a pri.chimation of the Baden
insurgents, identified (I fear too well) " Kossuth" with
the " Red Republicans" of Germany. As, however,
your article of to night shows there are brave men of a
noble people wanting bread, I enclose a sovereign for
their support. Your obedient servant,
University Club, July 2. CANTABRIGENSIS.

[On the part of the brave unfortunate we grate-
fully acknowledge the receipt of the above con-
tributions, and earnestly hope that the example of
our generous correspondents may be followed by
others not less alive to the holiness of the cause of
Hungarian liberty—En. Sun ]

LAST APPEARANCE OF MISS CUSIIMAN IN LONDON

—Miss Cushman, atter a stay among us, which pro-
longed as we should consider it to be with regard to any
other arli:te, is, Ls regards Miss Cushman, we, in corn •
mon with every achnircr of the drama, feel far too short,
makes her last appearance before a metropolitan. audi-
ence tc-inorrow evening at the Lyceum, in the character
of Meg Merrilies. It is with deep regret thai,
we thus announce the approaching departure
from our shores of one whom we would fain have
kept amongst us, who has won " goldf n opinions" from
all, no less by her private worth than by her transcendent
talent, and who stands as the delineator of a certain
line of characters, unapproached and unapproachable.
She came among us a stranger, she now leaves ho..ts of
friends and of admirers, who will no doubt gather to-
morrow night at the Lyceum to embrace the last op-
portunity of offering their tribute at the shrine of
genius. The performances ate for the benefit of Miss
Kathleen Fitzwilliarn.

take it on credit; but .! what sill the wor d does is right,"
is longer credit than we cau afford to give.—Eliza Cobh's

" Although the directing Board of Commerce in

sian Zollverein), nevertheless if has been again inspired
with apprehensions, both by what has appeared in the
Official Prussian Gazette and Memoir (explanatory
of the triple Alliance Constitution, similar to these
set forth in the declaration of the Free-trade Union of
Hamburgh, on the 18th of June). Consequently the
undersigned directors did not scruple to communicate
their apprehensions (lest Hanover should adhere to the
Zullverein) to the Ministerial department whom it con-
cerns, from which tranquillising assurances have been
received to the ()act that, under all circumstances, there
could be no question whatever (durchaus keine rede) of
the adhesion of Hanover to the present Prussian Zollve-
rein; for, although the 23d section of the project of a
State constitution, deciding upon a common customs and
commercial territory, has been agreed to, the grounds
upon which a customs system is to be founded must first
be mutually agreed upon (vereinbart); and, above all, this
Government does not consider itself in any way bound
to adhere to this agreement."

MARRIAGES BY LICENSE.

Mr. EW ART, in moving the second reading of tYe
Marriages by License Bill, said that it was simply in •
tended to remedy an inconvenience, and obviate an in-
justice, which was a great oppression, and an advantage
to nobody. By the law as it at present stood, no Dis-
senter could be married without first giving a seven days'
notice to the General Registrar of the district; whereas
persons who were members of the Established Church
had nothing more to do than make their declaration, pay
the money for the license, and then get married as soon
as they pleased. The Bill was intended to rectify this
injustice. Fie had consulted the General Registrar of
births, marriages, and deaths upon the subject, and he
had declared that there was not the slightest objection
to the Bill, and believing, therefore, that none existed,
he would move' the second reading.
Mr. GOULBURN was surprised at this motion, as he
had certainly understood that the Hon. Gentleman in-
tended to withdraw it.
Sir G. GREY said that the Hon. Member for Dum-
fries had only explained the present state of the law, and
as it appeared that the General Registrar was not opposed
to the principle of the Bill, there could be no objection
to passing it.
Mr. BROTHERTON said, that seeing the present
feeling in the House, and considering the state of busi-
ness, he would recommend his Hon. Friend to with -
draw it.

E WART said, that seeing the advisability of this
course, he would introduce it at an early period of tho
next session.

The Bill was then withdrawn.
REAL AND PERSONAL PROPERTY CON-
VEYANCE BILL.
The House then went into Committee on this Bill, the
object of which is to render the disposal of real property
almost as facile as that of personal property. The
several clauses were passed without comment, and the
Bill was ordered to be read a third time this day week.

In One half the world are desolately els.le
laPPosing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes -
a:tter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regretnn-
umprosing harry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity.
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
Ind social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour and justice demand that health should form an item
In the compact; It alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes er

fsr the closet perusal of those more dcekly interested, to whom
they are offered as antagonistic to the empyrical trash put forth on

DEFERRED ANNUITIES,

By the operation of the same, principles, the Society Is enabled to
afford to the public a 'plari-of Deferred Annuities far more advanta-
geous than any hitherto offered, whereby an individual, by the eon•
tribution of a very small annual, monthly, or weekly saving, may se-
cure either a comfortable provision for himself in advanced age, or,
at his option, a large sum of money, or a policy to his family at his
death ; while by giving to the purchaser, at any time, the power of
borrowing two-thirds of all previous payments, it removes all risk
of forfeiture from inability to continue premiums, besides affording
an ample resource during sickness and want of employment ; and
should the purchaser die before arriving at the stipulated period, two-
thirds of hie payments will be returned to his representatives.
The following Table is a specimen of the great and varied advan-
tages which the Judicious application of a small saving CAR secure
through this Society.

THE PEOPLE'S CHARTER.

Motion made, and Question put, " That this House, re-
cognizing the great principle that labour is the source of all
wealth, that the people are the only legitimate source of
power, that the labourer should be the first partaker of the,
fruits of his own industry, that taxation without representa-
tion is tyranny, and should be resisted, and believing that the
resources of the Country
.would be best developed by laws
made by representatives chosen by the labouring classes in
conjunction with those who live by other industrial pursuits;
that (in recognition of the above great truths) this House
adopts the principles embodied in the document entitled The
l'eople's Charter, namely, Annual Elections, Universal
Suffrage, Vote by Ballot, equal Electoral Districts, no Pro-
perty Qualification, and payment of Members." The House

SIR,—An article in the Allgemeine Zeilung, some few

your article of to-night shows there are brave men of a
noble people wanting bread, I enclose a sovereign for
their support. Your obedient servant,

LAST APPEARANCE OP MISS CUSHMAN IN LONDON.
—Miss Cushman, after a stay among us, which pro-
longed as we should considdr it to be with regard to any
other arti..te, is, as regards Miss Cushman, we, in com-
mon with every admirer of the drama, feel far too short,
makes her last appearance before a metropolitan audi-
ence to-morrow evening at the Lyceum, in the character
of Meg Merrilies. It is with deep regret that
we thus announce the approaching departure
from our shores of one whom we would lain have
kept amongst us, who has won i• golden opinions" from
all, no less by her private worth than by her transcendent
talent, and who stands as the delineator of a certain
line of characters, unapproached and unapproachable.
She came among us a stranger, she now leaves boats of
friends and of admirers, who will no doubt gather to-
morrow night at the Lyceum to embrace the last op-
portunity of offering their tribute at the shrine of
genius. The performances are for the benefit of Miss
Kathleen Fitzwilliaw.

LAND.

Major BLACKALL then rose to move the following
resolution:—" That the peculiar circumstances of Ireland,
consequent upon four successiveyears of distress, require
the immediate adoption of such measures as may assist and
encourage the individual exertion of the owners and
occupiers of Irish property, and promote indnstry by giv-
ing remunerative employment; and that all grants or
loans of money to particular districts should be applied,
as far as possible, to such purposes as may conduce to the
eventual improvement of those districts, and enable them
to support themselves from their ordinary resources."
He begged to say that since this resolution had first ap-
peared on the books of the House several measures had
been brought forward by the Government relative to Ire-
land, of which he did not underrate the importance. He
was also anxious to take this opportunity of saying, that
so far as he was personally concerned, he had always
found on the part of the Chancellor of the Exchequer
every wish to forward those reasonable and rational
applications for loans and grants which had been made
by Irish Members, and that he had been guided in his
refusal more by the tune and temper of tho House rh3n
by any wishes of his own.—(Hear, hear.) The Hon.
and Gallant Member was proceeding to notice the va-
rious measures which had been adopted for the pur-
pose of meeting the recent famine in Ireland, and to
point out the errors which had been committed, when
An Hon. MEMBER moved that the House be counted;
and, forty Members not having been found to be present,
the House adjourned at Eight o'clock.

"4. The future system of government will in all its
details be brought to completion by the National Assem-
bly. Meantime, until this is done, the country in its
whole extent will be governed by a President of the
Government, with the Ministers, to be appointed by
him, at his side, under his own and their personal re-
sponsibility.

SECONDARIES'.—(THIS DAY.)
(Before Mr. Secondary POTTER.)
CANNAN V. COOPER.
The plaintiff is a fish salesman in Billingsgate Market,
and defendant is a fishmonger at Ipswich. The action
was brought to recover the sum of 61. 9s. 6d., for fish
supplied. Defendant pleaded that he never alas indebted
to plaintiff.

The plaintiff's son was called, and proved that he re-
ceived letters signed in defendant's name, giving orders,
and the fish was packed up for delivery via the Eastern
Counties Railway, but the men who had been employed
to deliver them were not in attendance.
A witness named Clarke, an accountant, was called,
and proved that he went to Ipswich and saw the defen-
dant, who excused himself for not answering the re-
peated applications for payment by saying ho could
neither read nor write. He, however, said the balance
was right, and he only wished for a little time. The
witness then served defendant with a writ, and he (de-
fendant) subsequently sent a post-office order for
21. 9s. 6d. The proof that this was sent by the defendant
was the similarity of the handwriting, but there was no
postmark.

- The SECONDARY said that, there was clearly no proof
of the delivery of the articles, but it was a question for
the jury whether they thought the other portion of the
evidence amounted to proof.
The jury found for the plaintiff for 41.

offence of a disgusting nature on a lad, the particulars
