PARLLAIMEN TARY SUMMARY.

In the Loans' last night little was either .said or done be-
yond the passing of the Postage Duties' Bill, and the ad-
vancing some other' Bills.
In the COMMONS' many petitions were again presented
against the Lords' amendments from all parts of the kingdom.
'There was some conversation on the subject c.f appointing a
Committee for the revision of public Bills. Mr. Harvey gave
notice of his intention upon moving the order of the day on the
Irish Tithe Bill, to move tint a rent-charge upon the land in
Ireland be substituted for the abolition of tithe. Mr. Robin-
son's motion on the subject of our commercial relations with
Portugal was postponed till the 7th of July. Leave was given
to Mr. Sergeant Goulburn to bring in a Bill for the regula-
tion of law-fees in the superior Courts. One of those farces,
called "a conference," was held with the Lords on the subject
of printing the votes, &c. Their Lordships were pleated to.
withold, in part, their consent. The remainder of the even-
ing was occupied with the yet unconcluded consideration of
the Lords' " amendments" to the Bill relating to the Corpora-
tions of Ireland. The plan now proposed by Government is
to limit the operation of Municipal Reform to eleven of the
cities which contain the largest population ; and the course to
be adopted is to disagree with the greater part of the "amend-
ments" made by the Lords, and to preserve the original prin-
ciple, but not to insist on the original form of the Bill. The
debate will be resumed to-night.

IMPORTANT SALES OF LANDED

PROPERTY.

We have occas'.onally reminded our readers that, during the
present season, a considerable reaction had taken place in
property of every description, and in those remarks we espe-
cially called the attention of those who were inclined to in-
vest in land. The last month has afforded ample proof of the
soundness of our remarks. We shall not stop to enquire if
the cause be traced to the more tranquil state of the political
world. It may be so ; but the fact is incontrovertible—Mr.
George Robins has given the best proof that we did not argue
upon fallacious grounds. He has lately sold a very large domain
in Ireland, where the fee simple rarely averaged more than 18
years' purchase at 25 years, and to the amount of eighty thou-
sand pounds. It was but the other day, an estate he could
not sell in Wales for 34,0001. found a willing purchaser in
the wealthy M. F. for Worcester at 36,0001. Last week he
sold estates within a few miles of Abergavenny exceeding in
value of 30,0001., at an average of 30 years' purchase, and on a
rack rental, and yesterday proved, beyond the power of doubt,
these were not solitary instances of the inclination to return to
the good old custom of preferring land to the uncertainty of the
Funds' at the present unhealthy price. The sale of the two
large estates in North and South Devonshire, so long an-
nounced by Mr. Robins, took place yesterday at the Mart, and
we believe since the memorable event of the Ormonde pro-
perty (for which he obtained 500,0001.), there has not been
more spirit or more competition than was manifested yester-
day. We are induced to refer to these matters, because
our readers and large capitalists at a distance can alone
arrive at a thorough knowledge of the value of land by
such sales as we are now alluding to. The Auction Mart
was literally crowded ; before these important sales commenced
the auctioneer indulged his auditory with a very long exor-
dium, contrasting the high rate of interest which land had
latterly produced in comparison with the Funds. We cannot
find room to follow him in his able exposition, the main
object of which was to prove that it must be a very unnatural
state of things when the funded property should pay less in-
terest than terra firma, inasmuch as the least demonstration of
war, or any other untoward event, would reduce the Funds
exactly in the proportion that it would influence and increase
the value of land.

The first property under consideration was the Farringdon
Estate, within three miles of Exeter. This property was
tried by a country auctioneer in the last autumn, with-
out producing any competition : the executors then con-
signed it to George Robins's hammer. The rental was
under 1,000/., independent of occasional abatement, and after
a spirited opposition, was sold to a wealthy Alderman for
31,500 guineas, independent of the timber. The next was
the far-famed Buckland Filleigh, an estate seventeen miles
from Oakhampton. The mansion is proverbially one of the
best in this distant county—the land very moderate—the
situation quite delightful—and has long been possessed by Co-
lonel Fortescue. The present rental was 900/. a -s.ear ; and
on the determipation of six old lives, it will be increased to
1,250/. a year. The competition was most spirited, and after
much of good humour (which prevailed throughout each sale),
it was sold to Capt. Templer for 33,000 guineas, who is to take
the timber at a fair valuation, and is estimated at 15,0001.,
From this hasty summary it will be seen that more than 30
years' purchase is now established as a fair criterion of the
present value of land.
The large estates he has announced to sell, this and the
succeeding months, in Derbyshire, Worcestershire, Suffolk,
Norfolk, Essex, Oxford, Berks, Yorkshire, Gloucestershire,
and indeed almost every county in England, will be most
favourably prejudiced by the late successful results.

Mr. Barry O'Meara was considered yesterday by
his physicians in imminent danger, and very little hopes were
entertained of his recovery. His complaint is a violent ery-
sipelas in the face, attended with delirium, which in such cases
is generally the forerunner of mortification.

James Robinson, the man who stands charged with
causing the late fire at Finchley, Was examined again yester-
day ; he stoutly denies the charge : the decision of the Magis-
trates was deferred till Monday.

LONDON,
FRIDAY EVENING, JUNE 10, 1836.

It is evident from last night's debate in the House
of Commons that Ministers will stand firm to their
creed of equal justice to Ireland. The House of
Lords may bluster, but it will not make them waver.
They have taken up their position, and will maintain
it. Of course there will he no failing off in their ma-
jority. On the contrary, if we may judge from the-
feeling that prevailed in the House last night, they will
acquire a very considerable accession of strength—
thanks to the temperate, but resolved and energetic,
spirit that the country has lately manifested on the
subject. What is it that Ministers propose to
themselves to secure by the rejection of the Lord's
amendments? Is it the continuance of agitation in
Ireland—of Captain Roe K's domination—of the
Repeal war-whoop—of the Carriekshock, Inniscara,
and Ratheormac massacres? Far otherwise. The
object they have in view, is to substitute throughout
the sister country, repose for agitation, justice for in-
justice, equal rights for oppressive monopolies—in
short, to bring Ireland Within the pale of Bri-
tish legislation. And this patriotic object the
Lords would thwart by every means in their power.
Well, they will soon repent them of their pertinacity ;
for greatly indeed do we mistake the signs of the times,
if they do not harbinger a proffipt and searching Re-
form in the Upper House. • We warned their Lord-
ships that it would come to this. We warned them
even so far back as the year 1832, when they threw
out the Local Courts' Bill, simply because its object
was to render justice cheap, and consequently in their
eves vulgar ; but they were deaf to all admonition, pur-
suing their reckless course, just as if no day of rec-
koning were at hand. And what has been the re-
sult of such blind, obstinate bigotry ? Why, that
at this very moment their Lordships are at issue with
all Ireland ; with the intelligent Reformers of England
and Scotland ; and, as to-night's division will show,
with a majority of the representatives of the three
kingdoms, on one of the most important questions that
ever engrossed the attention of Parliament Such
being their position, will they now retrace their steps,
or will they persevere in their mad career ? Heaven
knows It is impossible to speculate with any cer-
tainty on the proceedings of those whom prejudice has
blinded to the truth. If, however, their Lordships
have one grain of discretion left, they will instantly avail
themselves of the opportunity—which though fast pass-
ing away, is not yet quite passed—of making the amende
honorable to Ireland. We conjure them to do so, by
all that they hold precious ,and venerable—by their
love of pomp and state—of stars, garters, and rib-
bands—of pension-lists and votes by proxy—of Al-
mack's, Crockford's and Newmarket—by their; crowded
box at the Opera, and empty pew at the Chapel
Royal—by their French cooks and servants in State-
liveries ;—hy each and all of these things, deprived of
which their Lordships would sink martyrs to ennui,
we conjure them to do justice to themselves and the
country.

imposingattitudc.

Let their Lordships peruse the debate of last night—
let them peruse it with that profound attention which
its paramount importance demands, and then ask
themselves the question, whether, if they resolve to
abide by their Amendments, they can do so with any
hope of success. They have no longer a House of
Commons of their own to deal with, but one that re-
presents the people—one pledged to the welfare of a
kingdom, not of a faction. Lord JOHN RUSSELL'S
speech is quite conclusive on this point,
expressing, as
it does, with the requisite boldness and energy, the
sentiments of the entire community. His Lordship
unequivocally declares that no power on earth shall
make him consent to the Amendments, in their present
state, of the House of Lords. Ministers, he tells us,

have promised justice to Ireland, and will keep faith at k
all hazards. With no desire to push matters to a
needless extremity they merely stand on the defensive,
armed, however, to the teeth--patient—vigilant--and
secure against all surprises.
We know not that we ever perused a speech more
triumphant as a whole, more satisfactory in detail, than
that delivered by Lord JOHN RUSSELL last night.
It has the best part of eloquence—sincerity. The reply,
in particular, to Lord LYNDHURST'S paltry attack on
the Irish character, was admirable for its pungent
sarcasm, and the lofty indignation that breathed through
it. " Those words," said the Minister, " which I
heard with my own ears, that three fourths of the
people of Ireland were aliens to us in blood, differed
from us in . language, differed from us in religion,
and only sought an opportunity to shake off the
Government of this country as the yoke of a tyrannical
oppressor ;—those words are the words which fell from
one who, but a few months ago, held the high and re-
sponsible office of Lord Chancellor of England !
Tell me, after this, of speeches made at the Corn Ex-
change ! Tell me of agitation ! I tell you that
those words will tend more to produce agita-
tion than a thousand Corn Exchange harangues."
This is hard hitting, but not a whit more so
than the Tory Ex-Chancellor deserves. There
are some callous natures who are not to be put
down by a courteous rebuke, and on whom nothing
but a sledge-hammer can make an impression. Lord
LYNDHURST is one of these, and accordingly his
opponent has applied the sledge-hammer with very
triumphant and unceremonious energy. Sir W. FOL-
LETT followed Lord JOHN RUSSELL, and sad work
he made of his reply. Dull drivel, seasoned with
pointless flippancy, and some small special pleading,
was' all that he had to serve up to the House.
Accordingly, Mr. O'LOGHLEN did not think it worth
his while to take more than a passing notice of such
a drowsy, illogical mass of common-place, but con-
tented himself with expatiating, in a bold, inanswer-
able spirit, on the evils that would accrue to Ireland,
and also to this country, were the Lords' Amend-
ments to be acquiesced in. At a late hour the debate
was adjourned over to this day—doubtless because
Hon. Members were so thoroughly saturated with the
laudanum of Mr. SHAW'S declamation, as to be in-
capable of further attention.

The University of Cambridge, and also the
Scottish Universities, have petitioned against the
Copy-right Bill. This is only what might have
been expected. According to the law, as it stands at
present, each of the. Universities are entitled to a copy
of every book entered at Stationers' Hall. Some
other institutions enjoy the same privilege. Eleven
copies of every work are thus sacrificed by the author
or publisher ; and this is not only a grievance of a
very serious description to literary men, but it operates
most prejudicially on the interests both of literature
and science. Many scientific works, of the greatest
importance, have been withheld from the public,
merely because their circulation being necessarily limi-
ted, and the expense of publication great, the abstrac-
tion of eleven copies would have entailed a very consi-
derable loss on the proprietors. HUMBOLDT'S
great work may be instanced among others. We
trust this heavy tax on knowledge will not be allowed
to continue a moment longer. Let the Universities
purchase out of their own funds such books as they
want. There is no reason in the world why they
should be provided with books without remunerating
those who have written them, and written them too,
in most cases, to earn that daily bread which is sup-
plied, without much labour, to the drones who pore
over University libraries. An enquiry into the use
made of such libraries would, we have no doubt, soon
show that this invidious privilege is turned to very
little account by those who are so clamourous for its
continuance.

We have seen letters from Manresa (province of
Catalonia) to the Ist June ; their contents are most
important.
The greatest discontent prevailed throughout the
province of Catalonia. The authorities had met, and,
with MINA at their head, had forwarded an energetic
representation to the Government, protesting against
the convocation of the Cortes as illegal, and request-
ing her MAJESTY to dismiss her Ministers, as the
country could not grant them their confidence. This
step had been taken without the least rioting or popu-
lar disturbance. 'The general confidence in MINA Was
sufficient to repress every symptom of violence, and to
organize a resistance to the Government in a calm but

Commissioners had arrived at Barcelona from Arm-
gon and Valencia, and had proceeded, together with
those from Catalonia, in a body to Madrid. It was
generally believed that the new Ministry had intended
to remove MINA from his command ; but he is re-
presented as determined to retain it against all oppo-
sition, and the people to sustain him. The province
of Arragon had declared itself independent, and
though all these demonstrations of hostility had not
yet occasioned any open acts of violence, everything
seemed to forebode an approaching convulsion.

Brussels and German Papers have been received.
Nothing, it appears, will prevent the recurrence of the
barbarous practice of duelling in Belgium. On Tues-
day last, •several duels took plat;; between the soldiers
of the 6th Regiment of die Line, and the Guides.
One of the duellists was conveyed, mortally wounded,
to the Hospital.
M. Jm3A ID, a Belgian, has discovered a new
moving power, which will do away with the use of
steam, as it will produce the same results with half
the expense, and without any part of the danger
which follows the bursting of boilers, and other steam
apparatus. The construction of this new power, is
said to be very simple. On Wednesday M. JoBAID
had left Brussels for Paris and London, with a view to
communicate his discovery to the Governments of
France and England.
The Count de BA ILLET, the Belgian Minister at
the Court of Prussia, has returned to Brussels.
The German Journals are filled with accounts of
the splendid fetes given to the French Princes by the
Court of Austria. When the Duke of ORLEANS
was presented to the Emperor, his MAJESTY wel-
comed his Royal Highness in French, when the
Duke made answer that he preferred speaking in Ger-
man, as from his infancy he had. studied the language
of so renowned a people. The EMPEROR was de-
lighted ; and subsequently the German language was
only addressed to the illustrious strangers.
The robbers expelled from the Greek territory have
committed great depredations on the Turkish frontier.
The SULTAN has ordered a large reinforcement in
that direction to prevent bandits driven from Greece
from seeking shelter in the territory of the Porte. In
the meantime the Armenians, at the instigation of
Russia, are struggling to shake off the jurisdiction of
the Patriarch of Constantinople—that dignitary being
no longer the nominee of the CZAR.

THE FUNDS.

The French Journals of Wednesday received this
morning are very barren of all important intelligence,
with the exceptton of an extract from the Journal du
Commerce on the subject of an interview between the
Austrian and Prussian Ambassadors and the President
of the Council, which will be found in our extracts
from that Journal.

The Moniteur contains the following ph. tele,ra
o ic
communication : . .

y V
......
Generals Palarea, from Valencia, and Rote; from Alcaniz
as well as the provincial deputies from Leon, have sent in the
most explicit declarations of adhesion to the new Ministry.
All the news from the provinces continue to be good. On the
morning of the 6th inst., the Carlists attacked the lines before
St. Sebastian, to the south-west of the Passage. They were
repulsed, and suffered considerable loss."
On the morning of the 31st ult., the Carlists made a
vigorous attempt to regain possession of the heights of
Ayete, then occupied by the British Legion. Their
attack was made before light in the morning, and was
conducted with great bravery for some time. The in-
surgents were repulsed with the loss of six officers and
fifty men killed, and many wounded. The British
Auxiliaries did not lose a man, and only one Spaniard
was killed in the engagement.
The Courrier Francais of Wednesday contain the
following paragraph :
" It is no longer doubtful to any one that Cordova, in ha-
tred to M. Mendizabal, and through jealousy of General
Evans, did not act with all the activity he might have dis-
played. The British General complained repeatedly of his
conduct to M. Villiers, and to his friends in Londop, He ex-

pressed particular displeasure on the occasion of the storming
of the Carlist lines before St. Sebastian. On that day, Cor-
dova was to have made a diversion, and drawn in the direction
of Vittoria a great part of the Carlist forces. He disappointed
General Evans, and the latter revenged himself by the same
kind of inaction when Cordova marched from Vittoria to Arla-
ban. General Evans is said to have more consulted on that
occasion his personal resentment, than the instructions of M.
Villiers, which were communicated to him by the British Con-
sul in Bayonne.
These observations are most unjust as regards the
conduct of the Hon. and Gallant Member for West-
minster, who was the last man in the whole army to
suspect CORDOVA of treachery. What was his cele-
brated letter to the electors of Westminster, but a de-
fence of the conduct of the Spanish Commander-in-
Chief ? In fact, there was not a man in Spain who
was not perfectly aware of CORDOVA'S treachery long
before General EVANS could be persuaded that the
Commander-in-Chief was not his most faithful friend
and firm associate in the cause of freedom. CORDOVA
did not want to beat the Carlists at Arlaban, and had
EVANS advanced, he would have contrived to lose the
battle rather than divide the glory of a conquest with
British troops. General EVANS is incapable of the
treachery that would sacrifice a constitutioal cause, and
the freedom of a people, to personal resentment.
PARIS, JUNE 7.—Very late yesterday evening, the Ministers
of Prussia and Austria visited the President of the Council.
It was affirmed that the affairs of Spain were the subject of
this diplomatic conference. This morning the Confidents re-
peated that it had been agreed, by a treaty between the three
parties, that in case Spain should depart from the Royal Sta-
tute, to follow the Constitution of Cadiz, or any other, the
three Cabinets would engage to cause the principle of mo-
narchical unity, and of the integrity of the Spanish territory,
to be respected, against the partisans of Don Carlos, or of
the Revolutionary Government. It is affirmed that it is Aus-
tria, in concert with Prince Talleyrand, that has formed the
project of this triple alliance, which, without changing any-
thing in the stipulations of the quadruple alliance, regulates
for a future contingency which it is easy to forsee ; an inter-
vention which would leave no ground to envy the influence at
which England may arrive in the Peninsula.—Journa/ du
Commerce. _

Yesterday morning M. Thiers had a long conference with
Count Appony, in the middle of which Lord Granville arrived,
but fearing to interrupt the conference between the Minister
and the Austrian Ambassador, he proceeded directly to the
palace.
PARIS, JUNE B.—The camp of St. Omer will commence
between the 10th and 15th of October. It will be composed
of 5,296 infantry, 120 artillery, and 15 gendarmes. It is not
known what regiments will form it.

TWELVE O'CLOCK.

Our arrivals this morning are the French, Ostend, and
Dutch mails, with a great number of ship letters. These are
from China, Nassau, Lima, Batavia, Calcutta, Madras, the
Cape, Sydney, and New York ; hut most of them of old dates.
We have also a Halifax mail by th 6 Linnet—sailed May 17th.
We have Montreal papers this day to the 13th of May, and
Quebec to the 11th of May. Their contents are not of much
interest. The Montreal papers say that the Rideau Lake is
now free from ice, and navigable. The lumber merchants
along the cnnal have mostly got their timber under weigh for
Quebec. The river was clear of ice opposite Quebec, and the
navigation considered open.
The Upper Canada papers of the Ist inst., state that business
was resuming its usual activity, from Montreal to the upper
lakes, and the spring was not so backward. The refusal of
the supplies, and the abuse bestowed by some of the pa-
pers on Sir Francis Head, appear to have created a feeling
of hostility to the adventurers who seek change and innova-
tion, merely to gratify their restless, foolish brains, or to fill
their own pockets out of the labour of the people. The Le-
gislature of Nova Scotia was prorogued on the 4th inst.
The Sydney Papers give the subjoined account of the mar-
kets : —The supply is generally good. Wheat holds a position
that is likely to be maintained. The price varies from 10s. to
12s. 6d. per bushel ; but arrivals are looked for. Other Grains
are progressing to an advance.
The Halifax Papers to the 17th May give the following ac-
count of the seal fishery :-117 vessels of 9,946 tons, and na-
vigated by 2,774 men, have been cleared out at the Custom-
House of Harbour Grace this year for the seal fishery. They
add that the Bank of New Brunswick had been obliged to
lessen their discounts.

By the express from Paris this morning, we have accounts
from Bayonne stating that two millions of money for the North
of Spain had passed for Oleron, escorted by two gendarmes.
The return of Cordova from Madrid was to be the signal
of combination—the result of which was expected with impa-
tience. The General would go to Pampeluna to join General
Bernelle ; and General Evans will attack Hernani.
The debates last night in the House of Commons engross the
attention of the City public this morning—particularly as
they have little Continental news of importance—with the ex-
ception of that received by the French telegraph from Ba-
yonne, that another desperate attack was made by the Carlists
on the English and Spanish lines near Passages, in which it
is rumoured the Carlists experienced a defeat, and stiffer-3d
considerable loss of men. The particulars of this affair are
anxiously looked for. It appears that while General Cordova
is carousing and intriguing at Madrid, the Carlists are attempt-
ing to take their revenge on General Evans's little valiant
corps, which no doubt will defy the fury of all the Carlists'
attempts to regain their lost ground.

Lord William Bentinck, M.P., the late Governor-

meeting, to be held next week in Exeter Hall in favour of
Mr. Buckingham's claims.
Sir George Sinclair has written to us a note, stating
that when he paired off with Mr. M. O'Connell, be reserved
to himself the right of taking part in any discussion which
might occur, though he could not vote. This is rather an
Irish way of pairing-off, for if the state of his health be such
that his physician considers it advisable for the Hon. Baronet
not to vote, will the greater exertion of speechifying mend the
matter ?

NORTH LONDON HOSPITAL.-The anniversary
festival of the foundation of the North London Hospital was
celebrated on Monday, at the London Tavern, Bishopsgate-
street. The Lord Mayor presided, supported by Sheriffs
Lainson and Salomons, Alderman Venables, Lord Dudley
Stuart, Mr. H. L. Bulwer, M. P. • Mr. W. Tooke ; the
Treasurers, Drs. Elliotson, Bostock, Thomson, &c.; and
about one hundred other persons. Upon the removal of the
cloth, the healths of the King, the Queen, the Duchess of
Kent, the Princess Victoria, the Duke of Sussex, and the rest
of the Royal Family, were drunk with the usual honours.-
The report was read by the Secretary, from which it ap-
peared that in the course of the year 1835, 1,156 in-patients
had been admitted; 1,299 out-patients relieved; 1,064 ca-
sualties relieved ; and 270 lying-in women attended at their
own habitations. The amount of the subscriptions was then
announced, in the total 4451. The most liberal contributions
were-the Lord Mayor, la 10s. ; the Duke of Somerset,
101. ; Alderman Venables, 10/. 103. ; Sheriff Lainson,
