SECOND EDITION.

brientillg Oint
LONDON, SATURDAY, MAY 2, 1846.

The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the Woolsack Al
Five o'clock.

The Irish Great Western (Dublin ar.d Galway) Railway
and the Midland Great Western of Ireland (Dublin and
Mullingar) Railway Bill, were, after a discussion, respectively
read a third time and pawed.
Lord AIONTEAGLE moved the second reading of the Rail-
Way Deposits Bill.
The Duke of BEAUFORT wished it should be postponed, in
consequence of the absence ofseveral Noble Lords who wished
to take part in the debate.

The second reading was postponed accordingly.
In answer to the Bishop of EXETER, it was stated by the
LORD CHANCELLOR that the House would not go into Com-
mittee on the Religious Opinions Relief Bill before Tuesday.
On the motion that the order of the day for the House
going into Committee on the Railway Dissolutions Bill being
read,

The Earl of RADNoR protested against the Bill, which
was calculated to break up many excellent projects for rail-
ways, and in all instances to encourage intrigues and gam-
bling.
After a few words from Earl GREY,

The Earl of DALHOUSIE said that the Bill had received
the most attentive consideration, and that he believed it
would meet the exigencies of the case, and that he should
f4...1 it his duty to oppose any amendments which the Noble
Earl might propose.
After speeches front Lord Monteagle, Lord Brougham,
Lord Ashburton, Earl Fitzwilliam, and the Marquis of Clan-
ricarde, the House went into Committee on the Bill

After a few alterations the Bill passed through Committee,
and the House adjourned.

The SPEAKER took the Chair at Four o'clock.

A letter was read by Mr. E. B. ROCHE from Mr. SMITH
O'BRIEN, complaining of the course the House had adopted
towards him in ordering him into custody, and giving an
explanation of his conduct relative to his refusal to serve
upon railway Committees. No notice was taken of the letter,
but
Mr. O'Cominu. expressed a hope that the House would
allow him to bring the subject forward on Monday.
Sir J. GRAHAM then moved the resumption of the debate
on the Irish Coercion Bill.
Mr. P. SOMERS contended that a measure like the present
would inflict the most serious injuries on the people o 1
Ireland.

Mr. ComatHous supported the first reading of the Bill,
and defended the Irish landlords from the imputations that
had been made against them.

and other lion. Members having addressed the House, a divi-
sion took place, when there appeared—

id he proposed to take the second reading Sir R. PE of
the Bill on the 25th instant.

Mr. O'CONNELL stated that on that occasion he would
move for a Select Committee to inquire into agrarian offences
in Ireland, with a view to provide some means for their pre-
vention.

The ether orders of the day were then disposed of, and the
House adjourned at a Quarter past Two o'clock,

Mr. and Mrs. GERRARD appear not to be satisfied
with the unenviable notoriety they have already at-
tained, but to desire that an additional portion of public
indignation should be visited on them in another and

different capacity from that in which they have already
figured. It appears that they lately. summoned no

less than thirty of their poorer neighbours, who,
fortunately for themselves, were the tenants of an-
other, and it is to be hoped more considerate land-
lord, for a malicious trespass, an offence which,
in Ireland, is deservedly visited with penalties
far more severe than those with which an ordi-
nary trespass is punishable. On the investigation it
appeared in evidence that these poor persons occupied
adjoining lands, and that their cattle had strayed into
those of Mr. and Mrs. GERRARD ; for the defence, it was

proved that there was not sufficient mering, or boun-
dary—that a gig might be driven over it—that it was
quite insufficient to keep out any beast—and that the de-
fendants had requested the plaintiffs to join them in

making one. The above statement has been
made by a respectable contemporary, the Roscommon
Journal, which adds the magistrate (the Honourable
Mr. FRENCH, R. 11.) dismissed the complaint with no
small degree of indignation. And justly might the
worthy magistrate pour forth, in the warmest terms, the
honest disgust with which every right-minded man must
view such a vexatious course, such an attempt to. op-
press the poorer and more unprotected class of our
Irish brethren. Can' it be wondered at if, after

two such exhibitions in one vicinity, the county
should be disturbed, outrages should be rife, and that
the ordinary operation of the laws should be found in-

sufficient for their suppression, and to restore peace to
the district ? Where the law, in place of being fouEd a

protection for the well-disposed and industrious peasant,
is turned, or rather attempted to be turned (for hap-

pily, in the present instance, the attempt was unsuc-
cessful) into an instrument for his oppression, a net
within the meshes of which he is sought to be entangled,

he soon comes to look at it as unjust and partial

in its operation, to be rnadelfor, and accessible to, the

rich man alone, that under it he may be unjustly pu-
nished, or in vain seek redress for injuries inflicted, he
seeks every means for its evasion. Sympathy with the
habitual law-breaker shelters and protects him; when

pursued steadily refuses to afford even the slightest in-
formation by which justice may be vindicated, and thus,
through the petty tyranny of a few heart-

less and oppressive members of the higher class a high-

minded and generous people come to be stigmatised
as the aiders and abettors of crimes, the supporters of
the blood- stained assassin, of the midnight disturber of

the peace. This is, indeed, a lamentable state of things ;
and if it is desired to be amended, the force of public
opinion must be brought strongly to bear upon the per-
petrators of such actions—the real delinquents—who are
morally responsible for the deplorable results too
likely to be the consequences of their reckless
proceedings. Well might the Premier exclaim
that he finds it impossible to control the
power of the landlords, and addressing them emphati-
cally, say—" You rely too much for the amelioration of
your social condition upon the executive Government.
You rely too much upon the Government passing laws
to effect what yourselves should accomplish. My firm
belief is, that you yourselves have it in your power to
apply a remedy. By pursuing a course adapted to meet
the requirements of the disorganised state of society
which prevails, you would be able to effect more
than could ever be done by legislation. This
would do all that any Government could accomplish."
This is indeed the truth; a generous combination should
exist amongst the landowners to effect the greatest pos-
sible amount of good amongst those who are dependent
on them, who look up to them for protection and guid-
ance, whose temporal welfare is placed in their hands ;
let them recollect that they are but the stewards of a
higher power for the distribution of the gifts entrusted
to them. Let them consider their first duty, which will

also be the highest pleasure, the greatest delight
of every one capable of appreciating the luxury of doing
good—to be the amelioration of their tenantry—the im-
provement of their condition—their advancement in the
social scale ; let them see that the blessings of education
are placed within the reach of the rising generation ;
let them see that no rack rent is extorted from the ne-
cessities of the heads of the families, that they shall be per -
mittedto retain their little tenements at such a fair and mo-
derate rent, as while, on the one band, it affords a fair re-
turn to the proprietor of the soil for the capital invested
in its purchase, they, on the other hand, may be enabled
by the exercise of industry and jealous attention to the
improvements and cultivation of the soil, to acqtiire
some degree of, and taste for, the comforts of civilised
life ; let them look for the possession of a better class of
cottage, and a diet something better than that which is
afforded to their pigs ; convince them that these results
are sure to follow increased exertion on their part, that
good conduct and character will most ac suredly obtain
its reward ; above all, satisfy them that there is no
possibility of their being driven from the possession of
the little spots where they were born, and which are
endeared to them by a thousand associations and re-
miniscences, which are more highly prized and valued,
no matter how barren they may be, than every other,
no matter how highly endowed by nature and cultiva-
tion—satisfy them that the improvements which they
have effected by the sweat of their brows may not, by
attracting the avaricious eyes of a heartless agent, or
needy proprietor, be the real cause of their expul-
sion, and consequent misery and destitution, and you
apply a motive which, in ninety-nine casts in one hun-

there will be no necessity for Coercion Acts or Bills
restrictive of the liberty of the subject. Every man
will support the law under which he enjoys the
blessings then more keenly felt from the contrast they
exhibit to his former oppression, and Ireland will indeed
be a land of happiness and prosperity. This must
spring from the landlords themselves; but much may
also be effected by good legislation. Take away all
well-grounded causes of complaint, remove the pressure
of unequal laws, above all, extend through the entire
nation the existence of the Ulster tenant right. Let no
man be removed from land without receiving a fair
compensation for the improvements which he has
effected, and let no landlord have the power of
dewing his estates to gratify some petty whim
or oscine vindictive feeling. Let the occupier be
entitled to retain the possession of land, so long as he
shall be satisfied to pay his landlord the fair value, to be
asseseod by a jury of his neighbours. Many other mea-
sures seight be mentioned, but let the proprietors of the

termed the rights of property.

The vexatious op?osition occasionally made by a mi•
nority in the 110 use of Commons, the resistance to use-
ful measures contriTel by parties of the most opposite
political principles, com')ined chiefly to throw business
into confusion, and tie injury caused to the public ser-
vice by explanations often required by a popular assem-
bly, with other drawbacks, which it is needless to enu-
merate, have made, not the despotic rulers of the
continent only, but many of the inhabitants of the
United Kingdom doubt the policy of constitutional go-
vernment, and prefer a violent stretch of power on the
part of the executive to the established laws
and principles of the constitution. A little n flection,
however, soon dispels the doubts of such waverers.
There is an inherent vital quality in such a work
as the British Constitution, which in time corrects the
evils complained of. The machine may be clogged for
a time, and apparently on the eve of a deadlock, but it
seldom or never fails to right itself, or to be put ti
rights by the hands that constructed it. The English
Constitution may be said now to have been in full
operation for more than two hundred years, and during
that period many obstructions have taken place. The
Chief Magistrate at one time has been de-
throned and expelled from the kingdom; at an-
other tried, convicted, and executcd as a great
state criminal. The Constitution has been in
vaded by a violent and unwarrantable creation
of Peers, mock representatives of the people been forced
by the Minister of the day into the Lower House, and
rotten boroughs, and bribery, and the corruption of
Members, regarded by unprincipled statesmen as the
best means of ruling a people. In fact, some of them
have approached almost to the very brink of absolute
government ; but the spirit of the people, the love of
freedom inherent in the Anglo-Saxon race, and the
genius of the Constitution, have surmounted all obstacles.
When a part of the machinery has become defective,
the executive, with all the army and navy, and the
vast numbers that always cling to the powers that be,
have been able for a time to prevent the necessary re-
pairs, but in no one instance have they finally prevailed.
The people have asserted their rights, and never was
this via vivida of the Constitution so active, or produc-
tive of such effects, as during the present age. Some
ten great measures, opposed by the Government at
every stage, repeatedly rejected by both Commons and
Lords, and denounced as ruinous by the most powerful
party in the state—that party long accustomed to
office and all the secret tricks of government, and sup-
ported by the whole Church—have been triumph
antly carried within the last twenty or thirty years,
by the untirir.g energy and courage of the people.
The Constitution still remains not only entire,
but greatly improved, and the machine goes on with a
vigour and a steadiness unknown at any former period.
These very interruptions, caused by the minority of a
popular assembly, are of themselves great preservatives,
because they convince a people divided in their opinions,
as is always the case, that a tyrant majority cannot
have everything its own way, that even a small propor-
tion of the community can compel the rest, at least, to

listen to them, and refute or admit their reasons; and
this very power only the more attaches them to a
system which gives even the weaker party a large share
of influence and authority. Despotism is not acknow-
ledged, not even known in the British Consti-
tution. All have a share in its advantages,
more or less: the voice of the unrepresented must be

listened to like that of the represented; they have a
stake in the property as well as the rest, because they
know that only a little more industry, in many instances,
will place them on a footing of equality, in retard to
political privileges, with the more wealthy. For these
reasons the prosperity of England increases every day,
and throws even the most thriving (and that is
not saying much) absolute states entirely into the
shade. - The power of those states is all external, all
on the surface. They have vast armies, guns, and
bayonets, and fortresses, and every instrument of what
is considered essential to streegh, in countless
numbers, but when they are put to the test of experi-
ence, they crumble to pieces, without the aid of the
people, like a baseless fabric. Witness the successive
downfal of Austria, and Prussia, and Russia, before the
armies of France. The last was only saved from utter
destruction by the hatred excited among a superstitious
people by the excesses of the invaders. And what was
the attitude of England during this awful destruction of
armies, thrones, and dynasties ? She remained amidst
the general havoc conscious of her strength, would
yield nothing to the conqueror, and finally
prevailed. Her free Constitution saved her from
destfuction, because that encouraged commerce
and trade, which furnished the sinews of war,
and gave every man an interest in preserving the in-
tegrity of the empire. If there can be any doubt cf the
fact, it is only necessary to refer for a moment to the
history, and mare especially the commercial history, of
representative countries. The free spirit which animated
the Dutch in their immortal wars against the Spaniards
afterwards made Holland one of the first commercial and
naval powers in the world. What else raised Venice
and Genoa and other Italian free states to their high
pre-eminence? Even Switzerland, shut out from the
ocean, and surrounded by jealous and unaccomodating
neighbours, surpasses the nations around her in the activity
and industry of her inhabitants, and can undersell most
of them in foreign markets. It is needless to refer more
particularly to England and the United States, except
simply to ask what absolute Government at all ap-
proaches them in the vast extent of their commercial
transactions, the means of acquiring wealth, and all
the great elements of power. These are sufficient rea-

sons to make us bear patiently with the occasional ob-
stacles thrown in the way of necessary legislation, and
to view with unabated veneration a constitution which
has worked for two hundred years so well, and only
acquires additional strength in its progress.

We find the following under the date Breslau, 21st April,
in the German Unirersal Gazette :—" The nobles who had
taken refuge in the Carpathian Mountains are again shcw-
ing themselves, since they have found that the peasantry are
turning their arms against the Government. DEMBROWSKI,
ex-secretary of the revolutionary Government of Cracow, is
the chief of the movement. Ile was at Cracow on Good Friday.
His party is re-assembling. SzEnn offered him the post of
Commander-in-Chief, but he refused it, because SZELA pos-
sesses entirely the confidence of the peasants. Many of the
nobles have been appointed officers. Many a Polish refugee
in Germany is no doubt anxious to return to his country.
Several of the merchants of Limberg have become bankrupt.
The Russians are establishing magazines on the frontier, and
seem watching the course of events.

A letter from Florence announces the arrival of the Em
press of RussL& in that city. The EMPRESS did not visi
Rome.

Accounts from Madrid to the 24th ult. have been re-
ceived. With regard to the movemont in Galicia the Ga-
zette publishes the following official bulletin :
" Home Department of the Peninsula.
" The news received to-day from Galicia supplies no in-
formation beyond that we gave yesterday. In the other
provinces there is perfect tranquillity."

It is evident from this bulletin that the QUEEN'S troop
have cot gained the slightest advantage, for, had such beet,
the case, the authorities would have been but too glad to pro
claim it. Information from Galicia to the 18th represent:
the insurgents as in pessession of the whole line of coast
from Cape Finisterre to the frontier of Portugal, and as oc-
cupying Vigo, Pontevedra, and Tuy. Tuy, which is situ-
ated in the Minho, is a regularly fortified place, with a
strong citadel.

General BALnoA has been dismissed from the Captain-
Generalship of Burgos, for having issued the ferocious procla-
mation Which we gave yesterday. General Don JoAQuisi
BATONA has been appointed in his place.
General BRETON has been reprimanded for the severe
bando he issued at Barcelona, and has been admonished to
confine himself henceforth strictly to the execution of his
duty.

El Eco says that a conspiracy has been discovered in
Murcia; several arrests had taken place, and some officers
and subalterns, military and naval, had been arrested, and
sent to Cadiz.
PINZON has been appointed to the command of the naval
force appointed to operate on the coast of Galicia.
The French Government, too, has ordered a ship of war to
proceed from Brest to the Galician coast to protect, and, if
necessary, receive on board the French residents at Vigo,
and other places in possession of the insurgents. This cer-
tainly looks as if matters were assuming a serious appear-
ance, and we are inclined to believe that the following ac-
count of the state of affairs in Galicia, which appears in the
Paris National, approaches much nearer the truth than those
we receive from Madrid :
"Accounts which have just reached us represent the insur-
rection to be triumphant throughout the whole of Galicia.
We will first give a summary of what we find in the El
Tienzpo, correcting, as we proceed, the errors of that journal,
and afterwards add tLe facts which have reached us from
our private correspondence. El Tionpo announces that

his officers and men joined the insurgent flag. The
insurrectionary force now amounts to 8,000 men, exclu-
sive of the militia, which have been organised. Orense must
at this moment be in their hands, for we know that on the
17th Solis was marching on Corunna. The last English
packet, which carries the Spanish and Portuguese mail, did
not touch at Vigo, but it was known that the entire country
was in the hands of the insurgents. We think we may an-
nounce that General Leymerich and Colonel Gurrea have
arrived in Galicia with sufficient means to promote the ex-
tension of the movement. Leymerich was Governor of
Madrid in 1843, and the resistance he made at that time
bears sufficient testimony to his devotedness, his resolution,
and his intelligence. Colonel Gurrea is one of the aides-
de-camp of Espartero and his private secretary. It is pro-
bable, that at the moment we are writing this account they
have given their powerful succour to the citizens and troops
who have already imparted a vigorous impulse to the move-
ment. The directing Junta has been installed and has
issued the following proclamation to the Spanish army :
Soldiers—ln the four provinces of Galicia, your com•
panions in arms of the regiment of Zamora, Segoria, Oveido,
Malaga, Guadalajara, and Mandonedo, have united with the
people to hoist the standard of liberty. On other points of
the territory the war cry has also been raised against that
avaricious, hypocritical, and intriguing Neapolitan, who
takes advantage of her position to deceive and enslave the
Queen. Aided by a handful of traitors she exhausts all her
schemes to seat on the throne of Spain a Neapolitan Prince,
full of superstitious and servile ideas, to drag us at the tail
of Rome, beneath the feet of the French Government. True
Spaniards, indignant at seeing so near the throne that woman
whose hand is stained with blood, and who is as wicked cs
she is audacious—that woman, who has sworn to accomplish
the ruin of a noble and generous nation—have taken up arms
in defence of their honour, their independence, and their
liberty. Why then soldiers, do you hesitate to join them ?
Are you not the children of Spain? Has your valour for-
saken you? Why do you hesitate? Do you not see that a
vile traffic is made of your noble blood ? Sons of the people,
will you separate yourselves from your fathers, from your
in ethers, and from your brothers? Whom do you serve?
What do you fear? Lay down your arms ! The people wish it!
Lay them down that you may not stain them with the blood of
your kindred ! Lay them down, for it is by them alone
traitors are supported. What would they be without you?
Where is their support in the nation in public opinion ?
Would you wish to see them isolated, lost, flyflying like
wretches covered with shame to a foreign land, raise the
cry of Long live the people!' Shake off, then, this fatal
lethargy, and if you are sought to be retained by appeals to
your obedience and discipline, reply that discipline and obe-
dience are not intended to enslave the country, and to serve
that unbridled treason which makes use of the throne to ac-
complish its most odious designs. Soldiers, we are returned
to the times of Godoy and of Marie Louise. We are sold to
the foreigner, and it is on you that reliance is placed to con •
summate the infamous work concocted by Christina and her
band. Save the country and yourselves! Unite yourselves
to the people, and if you are ordered to direct your bayonets
against them, plunge them into the breasts of the wretches
who give you such an impious command. The brave soldiers
Solis and Rubin de Celia, the intrepid Generals Leymerich,
Iriarte, Prim, Ametler, the hero of Pinacerrada, Luchana,
and Morella, the terrible Espartero calls on you. Come and
range yourselves under their banners, it is that of the
country. The Supreme Junta recommenda you to do
this; it henceforth will watch the conduct cf each, resolved,
when the day comes, to punish or to reward. Woe to him
who shall resist this appeal—woe to him who shall shed a
drop of the people's blood. Lay down your arms, then, sol-
diers, and join with us in the cry of Down with the Nea-
politans,"Down with the traitors,' Long live liberty and the
country.'

'ME DIRECTING JUNTA OF TIIE
NATIONAL MOVEMENT.'

" This proclamation has been distributed in all the principal
garrisons, and we are confident that in a few days it will
have produced a very decisive effect. Terror, moreover,
paralyses the action of the Government at Madrid. Chris-
tina, who has an instinctive dread of danger, is only occupied
with securing the means of escape. She has caused troops
on whom she can rely to be placed en echellan from Madrid
to Vittoria. The French Government, which does not aban-
don its protegee, has already given orders that she should
be received at Bayonne with all the earnestness and tender-
ness of old friendship. The Captains-General of Old Castile
and Arragon have followed the example given by that of
Catalonia. These three provinces have been placed m a state
of siege, and sanguinary bandos have been posted up at Bur-
gos, at Valladolid, at Saragossa, as at Barcelona. This much
resembles the frenzy of despair. Another correspondent
informs us that, according to letters received from the French
frontier, the movement has taken place at Logrono and in the
Rioja. It may be remembered that Logrono is the birth-
place of Espartero, and the Rioja is the province in which
Zurbano made his last coup de main. We have not received
this news from our private correspondent, but it contains no-
thing but what is very probable. It is not on one point alone
that the desire exists to expel for ever that unworthy woman,
who is the scourge of the country. The whole of Spain is
imbued with the same feeling."
The Constitutionnel represents the insurrection in Galicia
as the work of ESPARTERO, and says it is extending. It also
mentions a rumour that the inactivity of CONCHA is owing
to orders from the Camarilla, who wish to make the real
leaders of the revolt show themselves, and who are also

hsirous of impressing Spain with the opinion that NAR-
VAEZ is the only man who can put it down. It
further adds that negotiations are at present going on between
CHRISTINA and NARVAEZ. This intrigue on the part of
CisrnsTlNA is as dangerous as it is subtle, and will probably
end in the destruction both cf herself and NARVAEZ.

MADRID BorsA, APRIL 24.—The Funds experienced to-
day a considerable rise, for which no reason was assigned.
The Three per Cents. closed at 32 1-16 for cash ; the shares
of the Bank of San Fernando at 310; and those of Isabel at
185. The Five per Cents. were not quoted, but the Herald°
states that they were done at 20%, and the Debt without
interest at N.

We have received the Paris papers of Thursday. With
the emccption of two articles on Spain—the one in the
Vationd, which we have given entire, and the other in the
Constitutionnel, of which we have given the substance in
another part of the paper—these papers cQntain scarcely
anything of interest. On Wednesday the Chamber of Depu-
ties fixed the business for the remainder of the session.
Among the dropped measures are the Trans-Atlantic Packet
Bill, and the Postage Reform Bill. Several of the clauses of
the Western Railway Bill were adopted on Wednesday. No
division, however, on the whole Bill had taken place when
the post left. The principle of the law, however, as far as
the line to Caen was concerned, had been adopted, and its
:oncession to the Company of MM. BRETEUIL and E. BLOUNT
authorised.

The reception at the Tuileries, in observance of the RING'S
fete, commenced on Thursday. Duke AUGUSTUS of Saxe
Coburg arrived in Paris on Wednesday. Inumint PACIIA
was visiting all the public institution. At twelve o'clock on
Wednesday he received, at the Palace of the Elysee-Bourbon,
the officers of the garrison of Paris,who were presented to him by
the Minister-of-War, by General SEBASTIANA, commaniing
the first military division, and by General AUPICK, com-
mander of the garrison. His Highness subsequently visited
the column in the Place Vendome, the triumphal arch of the
Etoile, arid the Pantheon.

The Semaphore de Marseilles publishes intelligence from
Algeria of the 27th ult. The Moorish population along the
frontier was in a state of permanent revolt, and the environs
of Tlemcen were infested by bands of marauders, who often
exchanged shots with the French patrols. The intrenched
camp at Lalla Maghrina was almost uninterruptedly block-
aded, and the garrison had lately been obliged to effect a
sortie to repel a large body of Moors who had arrived there
from the neighbourhood of Ouchda.
The intelligence from Portugal, received rid England, and
a report that Madrid had been declared in a state of siege,
depressed the Paris market on Thursday.

CHARITABLE TRUSTS BILL.

(THIS DAY.)
LEGALIZATION OF THE JESUITS.

A meeting of the members and friends of the National
Club was this day held at Willis's Rooms, liing-street, St.
James's, for the purpose of considering the Charitable Trusts
Bill, and other measures now before Parliament, tending to
t he advancement of Popery, and the public recognition of the
Papal power and superstitions.
The meeting was numerously attended.

The chair eras taken at 12 o'clock precisely by
Lord KENYON, who briefly stated the objects of the meet•
ing, and called attention to the importance of the subjects
they were met to discuss.
Tile meeting was addressed by Sir Brooke W. Brydges,
Bart., the Rev. Mortimer O'Sullivan, Rev. Robert M'Ghee,
Sir Digby Macintosh, Bart., R. Baxter, Esq., Rev. Dr.
Bibee, and Mr. Spooner, M.P.
Resolutions were proposed, and carried unanimously, con-
demnatory of the recent endowment to Maynooth, the Chari-
table Trusts and other Bills now before Parliament, for re-
laxing the Act of Supremacy and permitting the publication
of Popish bulls, the exhibition of Romish ceremonies, en,
couraging the order of the Jesuits, and other things tending,
as was stated, to the subversion of the Protestant constitution.
Another resolution, inviting zealous co-operation in the
great object of maintaining the Protestant Church and con-
stitution and raising the social and religious condition of
the people, Was Passed
The thanks of the meeting were then given to the Noble
Chairman, and the meeting broke up.

EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF ELOPEMENT.—During the
whole of Friday considerable excitement was manifested in the
neighbourhood of Kilburn, in consequence of a report that a young
lady connected with a family well known and highly respected in
that locality had left her house under circumstances which had given
rise to suspicion that unfair means had been resorted to. Upon in-
quiry it appeared that the name of the young lady was Garwood,
that she was in her eighteenth year, and the only surviving child of
Sir Felix Garwood, who died at Demerara about eighteen months
since, leaving to her the whole of his property, amounting to up-
wards of 30,000/. Prior to, and since the death of her parent, the
young lady has resided with her father's sister, a widow lady of the
name of Lehan, at Alaida-cottage, Kilburn. Miss Garwood, from
childhood, has exhibited an eccentricity of manlier that has ex-
cited a fear in the minds of her friends that her intellect was
affected, and she has several times been

An increase in the notes issued of 18,0001., or to 27,049,510/.
An increase in the "rest" of 5,4921., or to 3,364,576/.
A decrease in the Public Deposits of 498,0761, or to

17,710,987/.
A slight decrease in the Seven Day Bills.

of 852,070/. or to 17,884,5321.
In the bullion there is an increase of 78,6571., or to
13,705,827/.
Consols for the Account have reached 96% to-day, and for
Money the price has ruled from 964 to 961/2. Money Stock

has been done this morning. Exchequer Bills have advanced
to 265. premium. Bank Stock is heavy at 2041. East
India Stock is firm at 262; South Sea Stock at 107; and the

are at 911/2 to 92.
There is a decidedly better feeling prevailing to day in the
market for Railway Shares, and bond fide scrips. The
prices of all, or very nearly all, are looking up.
The proceedings in P.aliament are watched with
much anxiety as to the progress made in the passing of Bills.
There is little fear as to a depres,ing influence being made
by future calls on railways in the course of operation. The
shareholders of the Dublin and Galway Company will
be pleased to learn that the Biil for constructing the
line was read a third time in the House of Lords.
The petition presented against the Bill, purporting to be
signed by the shareholders, upon examination, it appeared,
were parties who had sold their shares, and were desirous
to get rid of future liability, having signed the deed.

Daniel O'Connell has during his short stay in London
given Mr. Jones, the sculptor, several sittings, whereby this eminent
artist has been enabled to add another bust to those of the illustrious
and distinguished personages that have within a brief period honoured
his studio. The likeness of the Liberator is so perfect, that Mr. O'Con-
nell has acknowledged it with his autograph. This bust has been
executed for a number of subscribers, whose determination is to have
the marble placed in a public institution, and to multiply copies of
different sizes in biscuit china, terracotta, &c., to meet the wishes
of his admirers of all classes.
1.088 OF LIFE AT MILBANK. —Mr. Bedford, Coroner
for Westminster, resumed at the Green Man, Little George-street,
Story's Gate, on Thursday last, the adjourned inquiry touching the
respective deaths of George Richards, aged 57, and Martin Murray,
aged 28, the two unfortunate individuals who lost their lives by the
breaking down of a travelling crane at Milbank, on Friday week.
After a long investigation, In which the insecurity and the insuf-
ficiency of the crane were demonstrated, the jury, after a long con-
sultation, returned the following verdict:--" That the two deceased
died from the effects of injuries received from the breaking down of a
travelling crane at the Sheldon stone wharf, owing to its insecure
state, and they (the jury) levy a deodand of 5/. upon the same. And
the said jury are of opinion that no blame is attributable to Messrs.
Sartois, the proprietors of the wharf."
