" Shall men love freedom, and not dare to think ?
Love Truth—nor dare her footstep's to explore ?

To trace each proof—each sign--each record, o'er, .

NORTH MIDLAND COUNTIES RAILWAY

BILL.

Mr. JOHN PARKER moved that it be an instruc-
tion to the Committee on the Bill for granting further
powers to the North Midland Railway Company, that
they have power, if they see fit, to dispense with the
to
Standing Orders, so as to allow the said Comparl
borrow on mortgage the whole of the money which
they ask to raise by the Bill.
Mr. L ABOUC HERE said that parties concerned
in the Bill applied to the Board of Trade on this ques-
tion, and his answer WeLF, that it was not in the pro-
vince of the Board to interfere, but that whenever it
came in his way to discuss the Standing Orders in the
House, he always recommended the
thetl
same(lousetime, give
to
adhere
to them. But he certainly dul,
his opinion on this case, that if it should be found that
there was no violation of the Standing Orders. in permit-
ting the course which these parties wished to adopt, he
saw nothing in the Bill itself to make that course objn-
tionable. But he most distinctly said that it would be
a most improper thing in him to give an opinion in fa-
vour of departing from the Standing Orders—( Hear)
—and se far from supporting any such departure, he
would decidedly oppose it. He was not' opposed to the
application on the part of the Company, if it could
be complied with without violating the Standing Orders.
Mr. BERNAL thought the House should take the
question of the St inding Orders into their considera-
tion and make some alterations in them before they
could entertain a motion llke the present. He would
express no opinion upon the zaie before the House.

THE WAI.SALL ELECTION.

It is almost impossible to place in sufficiently strong
contrast the conduct of the two parties. The Reformers
endeavouring, on the one hand, to enlighten the minds of
the constituency; and the `Polies, on the other, labouring
to brutalise them, by adding beastly excess to the ignor-
ance which they sought to perpetuate, present a charac-
teristic picture of the two parties.
Loud was tie &amour against the introduction of Mr.
Arland into the borough : and why was this clamour
raised, or, what object had Mr. Acland in view which
could be justly condemned by any reasonable or honest
man ? He came, net to coerce or to corrupt the parties
whom he addressed, but to establish them in the Possession
and exercise of the.r political privileges, while he taught
them to make the exercise of them honourable to them-
selves as reasonable beings and patriotic citizens, and ad-
vantageous to the community to which they belong. Their
emtes must exercise an influence on the prosperity and
happiness of the nation, and he exhorted them to have re-
gard to the necessities of the starving millions of their
countrymen, while he taught them how they might cont 1-
bete to the relief of those necessities.
The knowledge which the friends of Mr. Gladstone
would inculcate on the peofle, is only this—that they,
being comparatively poor and powerle's, are only des-
tined fur sli,vcs; that it is unpardonable presumption in
them to think for themselves or act for their own interests,
or to do anything in their political capacity beyond obey-
ing she commands. of their taskmasters.
Nut even Tories themselves would, for a moment, com-
pare the introduction of such men as Messrs. Acland and
Sydney Smith, with the hiring of such agents as Messrs.
Patch and Nightingale. The friends of Mr. Smith act
through the lecturer and debater; those of Mr. Gladstone,
t' rough the kidnapper and intoxicator—Abe former seek
strength by teaching men to think and a.'t on rational
principles ; the latter by degradiog and brutalizing them.
'1 he: exposure of such differe..t principles of action must
surely result in the success of Marin and the
discomfiture of Tory acts. The brutatizi g party may
pcofes not to feel the inflimy t';ey have incurred; it is
generally only the individual of overweening vanity and

That this Meeting is desirous that all practicable security

the Colonial Bounties ; and is of opinion that the all-sufficient
provisions of the Passengers Act, and the stringent regulations,
rigidly enforced as they are, by the Colonial Government, as
respects the introduction of labour under its authority (with-
out full and literal compliance with which the partii s intro-
ducing it cannot obtain payment of the bounties), afford ample
protection and security to all persons proceeding to New
South Wales at the Colonial cost ; an I this Meeting is fully
borne out in this view by the results of recorded investigations

AIR. VINCENT

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
Sta,—Mr. Vincent, the Chart;.:l, who has been twenty
months a prisoner in the gaol of Monn7outh, London, and
Oakharn, is delivering L. ctur,s -on Clvi, tisin and Tee-
totalism in the Midland Coutnies. He deiti'ered four
ctures in the New-hall, Leicester. last week, to a nu-
morons and respectable audietice. His defence of Chart:-
ism was maete.ily and eloquent, while his eirriest appeals
to the working classes on the subjects of sobriety, morally,
and general gonce, created a very great impression
on the minds of those hitherto opposed to the Chartist
cause. At the close of the last Lecture Mr. Vincent ad-
ministered the Chartists'Teetotal pledge to 63 persona.
This week Mr. Vincent has delivered three Lectures in
our theatre to crowded audiences, espreialiy the last two
nights. Having heard him in Leicester I attended these
Lectures, and from what 1 hLve heard and seen of Mr. Vin-
cent, I must confess myself a convert to Chartism, and I
find Mr. Vincent has been no less successful in many other
ease,. Here, too, 55 persons received the " Chants!
Teetotal pledge" at his hand. I think if the policy of
"- Vincent was generally adopted by the Chartist Reny
no eovv,r could long prevent the "People's Charter" be_

tleman having before explained his object at
great length, did little more than move the new

Mr. GOULBURN had no doubt the proposed
scale would be beneficial to the Colonies, but it
must be looked at in relation to the whole trading
community. As far as that would affect them,
the House had not sufficient information to pro-
ceed with the measure. He particularly objected
to legislating on the subject while Canada was
without a House of Assembly.
Mr. LABOUCHERE briefly defended his reso-
lutions.

Mr. COLQUHOUN approved of them, but thought
that they did not go far enough.
Mr. HUME was gratified by them, and by the

TO MR. DAVIDGE.

"DIY DEAR SIR—I am deputed by the Ladies and Gentle..
men, the Band, and all the persons Composing this establish-
ment, to present you with this Cup as a mark of their affection
and esteem. 1•could have wished, Sir, that this very pleasing
and flaltering task had been assigned to far abler hands, for,
however accustomed I may be to public speaking, I am not at
all au fait in this—it is my first appearance in a part of the
kind. I have received it at a very short notice, and have had
no time for preparation. In trying to do my best, I must, as
useal, therefore beg your indulgence.
This cup, Sir, is presented to you by every individual un-
der your management, and none have subscribed less than one
night's salary, some much more ; and the alacrity with which
this has been done is the very best proof of their esteem,
respect, and gratitude. The latter expression may perhaps be
considered as too strong between manag.er and actor, as Ihave
ever considered the obligation reciprocal • but, in these days o
precarious and uncertain theatrical employment, where com-
p/lies are got together one week to be dispersed the next,—
where salaries are too often not paid after the first five or six
nights,—l say, Sir, that an individual who, like yourself, has
punctually performed your obligations to those around you,—
who has for years not only paid salaries in health, but also in
sickness,—l do say, Sir, that such a man is not only worthy
our esteem and respect, but, in a great degree, our gratitude.
" From the very many years that I have had the pleasure of
enjoying your acquaintance and friendship, I can perhaps speak
better than any other of your conduct both as an actor and a
manager—as an actor we have laboured together in the
' same theatre for a considerable period, and I do, and must
sa, that a more kind-hearted, mere liberal, or amiab!e brother
performer, I have never met with in the whole course of my
theatrical career—as a manager, our dealings have been ex-
tensive, often on slight verbal arrangement, without even a
witness or document, and they have always been fulfilled with
integrity and honour.
"It now, my dear Sir, only remains for me to express our
sincere and heartfelt regret at the cause which obliges you to
withdraw from us, and we most fervently hope that you will
soon return with renovated health and strength. We wi,h, in
presenting this cup, we could fill it with some healing draught
that would put you in possession of that inestimable ilessin2.—
of one thing be assured, Sir, that it is jibed to overflowing
with the best wishes of every man, woman, and child of this esta-
blishment, and, as such, Sir, wishing yog many years of reno-
vated health and happiness, I most respectfully present it to you.

from obtaining food by their own honest exer-
tions is a far greater crime than refusing to give
it from a man's own store, which is not asked—if
the farmers will but reflect on the murderous
consequences of the Corn-laws, we are sure
that they will repudiate the enormous guilt for
the paltry gain, if any, which they admit it gives
them, particularly as it is accompanied by the
sad and lamentable degradation of making them
tax-gatherers for the owners of rent.

Letters and Papers from Madrid of the 23d
ult., have reached us. A formidable opposition
to the new Cabinet was in course of being orga-
nized in the Cortes.

On the 22(1 a disgraceful squabble took place
at Bilbao, between the military and the town's-
people; one officer was nearly killed.

The Paris papers of Sunday have been re-
ceived. The condemnation of DARMES to death,
for attempting to assassinate the King excited
no interest, as it was generally believed that the
sentence would be commuted to one of imprison-
ment for life. We regret that at the eleventh
hour grounds should exist for doubting this.
They are based upon the fact that M. PINEDE,
the counsel for DARMES, after sentence of
death was pronounced on his client, implored an
audience of the King to beg his life; but was
refused admission to his Majesty's presence. If
the ghastly spectacle of the severed heads of
FIESCHI, MOREY, PEPIN, ALIBAUD, and HER-
BERT failed to deter DARMES ftolll the crime of
Regicide, does the King suppose that the
decapitation of this miserable floor-scrub-
ber will prevent the hand of frantic enthu-
siasm from endeavouring to rid France of a
Prince whom one portion of his subjects denounce
as an usurper, and another as a tyrant ? Not
that we are either hostile to the ORLEANS

KINGSTON POLICE.

Three men, named George Knowles, Richard Lamb,
and James Morgan, were brought before Sir R. Frede-
rick and R. H. Jenkinson, Esq., at the Town Hall,
charged under the following circumstances :
It appeared from the evidence of Mr. Hilditch, the
superintendent of the Kingston railway station, that the
prisoner Knowles came to the station, and wished to
book a place to town, and he tendered a crown piece in
payment, which was discovered to be bad, and he was
given into custody. Shortly afterwards the prisoner
Morgan came to the office, and wished for a place in
the train, and he tendered him a counterfeit half-crown,
but he discovered the attempted fraud, and almost at the
same instant Lamb came up, and tendered another bad
half-crown. He called for assistance, and a constable
came up, and the prisoners were given into his charge.
The superintendent was then about to mark the counter-
feit coins. When he was about to do so, the prisoner
Morgan rushed from the side of the constable, seized the
half-crowns, and put them into his mouth, and swallowed
them in an instant, in spite of the exertions of the by-
standers to prevent him from doing so. The prisoners
were then taken to the station-house, and on their being
searched, a quantity of good shillings were found in
their possession.
The .MAGISTRATES expressed their surprise at the
statement that the prisoner had swallowed the two half-
crowns, and said they should have thought it impossible
for any one to do it.
The constable said that the prisoner Lamb had been
in custody at Clapham upon a charge of passing bad
money, and it was well known that he would make no-
thing of swallowing six half-crowns, and that he would
do so at any time to avoid detection.
The MAGISTRATES asked the prisoners what they had
to say in answer to the charge, and how they obtained a
livelihood ?

The prisoner Knowles described himself as a cat&
dealer, and the other two said they were labourers. They
accounted for having the bad money in their possession
by saying they had taken it at the races in a booth.
Mr. Powell, the solicitor to the Mint, having expressed
his opinion that under the circumstance of the case, there
would be no chance of a conviction if the prisoners were
sent for trial, the Magistrates ordered them to be dis-
charged.

The Right Hon. the LORD .MAYOR in the Chair,

H. LA RPENT, Esq., and resolved.
That a free and liberal policy in the legislation of this
country, pßrtionlar:y in those laws and regula, ions which affect
its agriculture and. commerce, has become more than ever
necessary from the extent of our population, the state of our
revenue. the manufacturing rivalry of other nations, and the
increased knowledge and enlightenment of the people. That
this meeting therefore highly approves of the proposed alter...
tion in the existing Corn-laws.

That petitions embodying the preceding resolution be signed
and presented to both Houses of Parliament.

T lIE MONTEM.

This triennial celebration cf the Montem took place on Tues-
day, being Whit Tuesday, according to almost immemorial
custom. The number of persons assembled on this occasion
was greater by some thousands than we remember to have seen
on any former Montem, and we have witnessed a good many,
including the times of George 111 , George IV.. and his suc-
cessors, King William IV., and her present Majesty. The
trans of the Great Western Railway brought host after host
of visitors to Slsugh ; one train brought upwards of 1,000.
By 11 o'clock the amount of arrivals was at its height. Her
Majesty arrived at about half-past 10 o'clock, and was received
by the Provost, the Fellows of Eton, the head Master, and
assistant masters, in the usual manner. She was accompanied
by his Royal Highness Prince Albert, Lord Melbourne, Earl
Albemarle, Earl of Uxbridge, and her usual suite. At 11
o'clock the crowding to get into the quadrangle of the College
was tremendous. At this time her Majesty and Plince Albert
showed themselves at the great window of the college library
in the clock tower, from which they commanded a full view of
the procession. They were cheered in an enthusiastic manner,
and they bowed repeatedly in acknowledgment of the expres-
sion of loyal feeling exhibited. The procession began to move
from the Cologe on its way to Salt-hill at about 20 minutes
before 12 o'clock, accompanied by the band of the Ist Life
Guards and the band of the Rifles. The sight was of its
kind a very splendid • one, the dresses of the Salt-bearer!, the
attendants on the " Captain," on the "Mareschal," and on the
other authorities and magnates of the day, were very elegant and
appropriate. The " Captain," Mr. Thring, the head boy on the
foundation of the school, was, as is the custom, habit ed in scarlet,
with cocked hat, feathers, sword, &c. The boys on arriring at
the Mount took their stations around the lower parts of it.
The standard-bearer ascended to the summit, and the carriage
of her 'Majesty having been drawn up immediately at the bot-
tom of the hill, so that she and her Royal consort could com-
mand a perfect view of the whole, the ceremony of waving the
flag commenced, and was performed in an admirable manner,
and with untiring strength by the standard-bearer. Her
Majesty looked remarkably well, and seemed to enjoy the sight.
It was in every respect a most gratifying one. After the
departure of the -Royal party, the eating and drinking in Mr.
Bothman's inn commenced, and was succeeded by the prome-
nade in the gardens of the inn, which were crowded with com-
pany. We understand the head boy or captain, Mr. Thring,
will receive in "salt" or money collected, upwards of 3,000/.,
but out of this he has to defray expenses that amount to nearly
one-half.

SPAIN.

The Madrid Journals are to the 24th. In the sitting of the
Chamber of Deputies on the 23d, an address from the Munici-
pality of Burgos, relative to the allocution of the Pope on the
affairs of Spain, was referred to the Committee of Petitions.
In the same sitting a proposal was read, recommending that
the Government should give its attention to the indemnities to
be granted to those places which have been plundered and
burnt by the factious. This proposal was adopted immedi-
ately. The President of the Conncil said that he thought it
useless to discuss the subject, because the Government was in..
dined to attend to this affair as soon as possible.
Thanks to the repeated entreaties of Espartero, Senor
Chaeon, ex-Minister-of-War, has accepted the appointment of
Captain• General of Madrid.
The transactions in the Five per Cents. amounted to
27,200,000 reels, and were negotiated at 27 5-16ths for ca-h,
and at 28 at 60 days.
We have said that the Minerva frigate has sailed from
Toulon on the 27th for the Levant. We learn by private
