(THIS DAY.)

HOUSE OF COMMONS.
The SPEAKER took the Chair at Twelve o'clock.

Mr. BROTHER lON moved that—lVll. ll'Eyneourt
and Mr. Charles Pearson have leave to attend and vote
in the Committee on the Lambeth Waterworks Bill,
upon their signing the declaration required by the
Standing Orders, although such declarations were not
delivered to the Committee Clerk before the Chairman
had taken the chair.

The motion was agreed to after a short discussion.
Mr. R. YORK presented a petition from Royston, in
Hertfordshire, against the Bill for establishing diplo-
matic relations with the Court of Rome.
Mr. FEARGUS O'CONNOR presented a petition
from the National Convention against the Crown and
Goverment Security Bill.
Mr. CARDWELL presented a petition from Liver-
pool, praying for the abolition of the attorney's certifi-
cate-tax.

Mr. BRINES presented a petition from a place in.
Yorkshire, pra)ing fur an alteration in the laws of
tettlument.

Colonel THONIPSON presented a petition from pen-
si,,ners resident in Glasgow, complaining of the five per
cent deductions from their allowances.

Magdalen Ho,pital Act Amendment Bill.

SECOND READING.
The Manchester Corporation Waterworks Act
Amendment Bill was read a second time, and ordered to
be committed.

Lord NE‘S'RY presented two petitions from Newry,
pray ing for an alteration in the existing national system
of education in Ireland.
NOTICES OF MOTION.

Lord INGESTRE gave notice that to-morrow he
should move for a return of the number of special con-
stables sworn in, and the extraordinary expenses in-
curred by the Horse Guards for the purpose of preserving
the public peace during the last few days.
Captain lI.s.RRIS gave notice of his intention, in
Committee, to move the insertion of a clause in the
Crown and Government Security Bill.
LANDED PROPERTY (IRELAND) BILL.
The committal of this Bill was postponed.
MUNICIPAL CORPORATIONS (IRELAND) BILL.
In reply to a question from Sir G. GREY,
Mr. REYNOLDS said he would postpone the second
reading of this Bill in favour of the Crown and Govern-
ment Security Bill, if the Right Honourable Baronet
would consent to strike out of his Bill the words " open
and advised speaking." . _

Sir GEORGE GREY intimated that he was not pre-
pared to enter into such a compromise.
Mr. REYNOLDS suggested then that Governme:ut
had better consent to the second reading of the Bill,
and leave it to be discussed upon going into Cone-
mittee.

Sir G. GREY said he could not consent to the second
reading of this Bill without previous discussion.
Mr. El ANIILTON put it to his Hon. Friend whether,
to king at the feeling of the House, he had not better
postpone the second reading.
Sir R. PEEL also appealed to the Hon. Member to
postpone his motion.
Mr. REYNOLDS said he would have been justified
upon principle in persevering with his motion, but aft; er
the appeals made to him from all sides of the House, .he
felt that he ought to postpone the second reading of this
Bill.

Sir GEORGE GREY begged it to be understoo.d,
that in stating that he could :not consent to the
second na ling of the Bill he did not mean to convey to
the House that he was opposed to the Bill. The B ill
was one of considerable importance, and he was anxious
that it should be fully discussed before. it was read a
second time.— (Hear.)
Ultimately the second reading was postponed trill
Monday next.
ALIEN BILL.

On the question being put that the Speaker do lea-ve
the Chair, for going into Committee on the Crown atttd
Government Bill,
Mr. OSBORNE rose and said—Sir, I believe I um
now in a position to put a question to the Right Ho n.
Baronet, the Secretary of State for the Home Depart t-
meat. I wish to ask the Right Hon. Baronet
whether it was possible that there could be any truth in
the statement that Government were about to_brieg in
an Alien Bill?
The SPEAKER ruled that the question could not lbe
put at this stage of the proceedings.
Mr. OSBORNE--Then I give notice, Sir, that oo-
morrow, on reading the order of the day, I will put a
question to the Right Honourable Baronet on tehe
subject, and draw the attention of the House to it.
CROWN AND GOVERNMENT SECURITY BILL.
Mr. GEORGE THOMPSON then rose to resist the
motion for again going into Committee on this B
!le said it would have better become the Right Hon.
Bart. who had charge of the Bill, to postpone it for a few
days, to give the people an opportunity of saying whether
the y were prepared to give up their right of public
meeting and public speaking, particularly as the Bill
was not intelligible and full of bad grammar and bad
a:eBi;sh .—(llear.) True, the fire of revelation had broken
out in France, and its warm us bud oprn•A throughout
the length and breadth of Europe, and no doubt the
Government had become alarmed for the safety of her
Majesty's throne. Those, however, who had advised
her Majesty to that effect were evil advisers, for her
Majesty was beloved amongst all classes of society.
But what ground was their for passing this Bill?
Were the people disloyal ?—(Hear.) No such thing,
and those who accused them of it were open to the charge
of vile calumniators.—(Hear, hear.) The Right Hon.
'Baronet who introduced the Bill, read nothing from an
English newspaper to justify the provisions of the Bill,
but he crossed the Channel, and there he found some
violent writing, which certainly did show that
an alteration in the law was required.—(Hear,
hear.) Was that, however, a sufficient reason
why the whole of the United Kingdom should
be stigmatised with disloyalty? Look even at the
Chartists, who had been so unjustly and unconstitu
tionally treated by the Government while in the act of
demanding their just rights. Had they done anything
to justify the passing of this Bill? The Chartist body
was composed of the industrious labourers of the country,
and he regretted, the other night to hear the
Noble Lord at the head of the Government lauding the
middle classes at the expense of the poor hard working
men of the country. Let the Noble Lord beware how
be set one class against another, or the day would come
when the Noble Lord would have cause deeply to regret
the course he took on Monday to prevent the working
man from giving utterance to his views and
feelings.—(Hear, hear.) Why, good God, who
were the Chartists that were so much feared?
Why they were those intelligent labouring men who had
made this country what it was. Let not the House or
the Government, then, imagine that they were not re-
spected and sympathised with by the middle classes.
The shopkeepers and manufacturers of the country knew
perfectly well that the Chartists were composed of in-
telligent and industrious men, who well understood the
political history of the country, and the day was fast
approaching when the wealth of the country would
come to their aid. Go where you would there would
Chartists be found. They were in fact the bone and
muscle, as they were the glory of the country,
and go to the army or the navy, the work-
shop or the factory, there Chartists would
be found in thousands who were not represented in that
House, and whilst this state of things lasted, he could
never consent to the passing of such a Bill as this.—
(Hear, hear.) Pass this Bill, and the first step would
have been taken to alienate the affections of the
people from the Throne; and he therefore
called upon the House, if they valued their
own safety and the safety of the Crown, they would not
pass into a law a measure that was opposed to the spirit
of the constitution, and opposed to the rights and privi-
leges of the people.—(Cheers.)
Mr. RALPH OSBORNE said he understood
that the Right Honourable Baronet had openly
licensed him of having tprompted the Honourable
Member for Dublin not to withdraw his motion. Well,
he admitted it, and he would tell the House, that he
would do all in his power to oppose this unconstitutional
Bill.—(Hear.) It struck him very forcibly that the
policy of the day was the policy pursued by Mr. Pitt
in 1795, with this exception—that the descen-
dants of those who opposed Mr. Pitt in '95
were now the advocates of his policy.—(Hear, hear.)
He suspected that this measure was brought forward to
remove the alarm of a frightened aristocracy and panic-
stricken House of Commons.—(Cheers.) From what
he had seen of the temper of the House within
the last few years, he was satisfied that the House
was prepared to do anything that might be averse to
the feelings of the people. In 1795 Mr. Pitt dared not
pass such a Bill as this, and was it to be said that in this
advanced period of enlightenment they ought to pies
a law which should make things in this
country worse than they were in Russia? In
Russia a man might say any thing provided
it did not offend the authorities, but if this Bill passed
such a privilege could not be exercised in the country.
—(Hear.) It was said this Bill was for the security of
the Crown. What security, in the name of common
sense, did the Crown want? For his part he felt that the
throne never rested firmer upon the affections
000ffr
tthh?;
Crown.—(Hear,
but if they shut up the safety valve of the
constitution, as it was called, they would peril the safety

were not suffered to speak they would have
recourse to more dangerous expedients, and,
if the Bill passed, open resistance would be
a matter of prudence.—(Hear, hear.) Let then the
Government, who no doubt were members of the Fox
Club, pause before they passed a Bill like this. Already
a feeling had gone abroad that the present system of
forming administrations in this country was rotten at
the core, and unless the Government consented to throw
overboard " the old woman who appeared to prompt
the Cabinet, and brought in measures for improving the
condition of the working classes of England an re-
moving some of the miseries of Ireland, there soon
would be a necessity for passing measures for the
security of the Crown and. Government of the country.
—(Hear, hear.) Why, in another place he saw that
Government was about to introduce what was called an
Alien Bill.—(Cheers.) Hon. Members mightcheer, but be
called upon the common sense of the House to the
perilous position in which it stood. At the present
moment they were reviving all the extinct
,Tory policy

r of 1795—inde d, they were going beyond that policy.
be. ause they were introducing words into the Bill, which
Mr. Pitt never dared to carry.—(Hear, hear.) This
Tory policy vi as not confined to the Home Department.
It had already spread itself into the Foreign-office. 114
remembered the manner in which the No'ole Lord at the
head of that department List rear interfered in the
affairs of Portugal, and if he could get an oppertuldty
of meddling with the affairs of France he would not let
it escape. There was a certain influence at work a hid)
would prevent his doing that.—(No, no.) Hon. Members
said no, no; but let them read the history of 1795, and
there see what influences were at work then.—(Hear,
hear.) As the Member of a large and important con-
stituency he felt it to be his duty to express his abk or-
renee of the policy which Was about to be pur-
sued by Government, and he called upon the
Members of that House, who had been re•
turned by liberal constituences, not to be carried
away by a temporary panic. He called upon the shop-
keepers of London, not because a few windows had
been broken, to sacrifice the essential rights of the Con-
stitution, but to rally round those honourable men who
were prepared to fling from power those liberal Minis
ters who had so disgracefully deserted their principles.
Mr. AGLIONBY said he was prepared to go into
Committee, but he should certainly resist to the last the
gagging clause.
Nlr. FEARGUS O'CONNOR, said he could not use
language sufficiently strong, not to reprobate, but to
regret that the Hon. Member for Dublin bad given way
to enable Government to proceed with an unconstitutional
Bill. He insist, d that the law us it at present stood
was sufficient to protect the Crown. If the Government
had rested the passing of this Bill upon what occurred
on Monday lust, they ought now to withdraw it, for the
proceedings of Monday fully showed that the people
were faithful to the Crown and the Constitution. For-
merly it was the boast of the Whigs that their measures
were opposed by the Tories, but now they gloried in
having their Bills backed and guaranteed by the
Right lion. Baronet the Member for Yarmouth. This
system, however, could not last, .and he; prayed the
Government to pause before they penned the
loyalty of the people b assin g this Bill.—
hear.) If the Governmentyp passed his theiris Bill, tenure
of office would not be worth two mouths' purchase.
The present Bill was treason against the Crown,
and the Ministry were the most unpopular that
ever had the government of this country. He
-(Hear,
implored the Government to re consider this sub-
ject ; and, so far as his strer.gth would allow
him, he would oppose the further progress of this Bill.
He told the Government that if this Bill passed the
House this day, there would be by this day week 100
secret clubs established throughout the country, and he
would do all in his power to organize those clubs.
Mr. P. HOWARD thought the Hon. Member for
Nottingham had taken a somewhat unfair advantage of
the Hon. Member for Dublin in withdrawing his mo-
tion. He should not have risen had it not have been
for something which had fallen from the lion, Member
for Middlesex, which might tend to produce bad feeling
in another nation. England was, and he believed al-
ways would be, the home of distress and the refuge
of all foreigners who claimed its protection, but while
they thus afforded that protection, he maintained that
it was the duty of the Government not to allow any
persons so receiving protection to enter into any illegal
political combinations. The measure introduced by the
Government was not the Alien Bill of Mr. Pitt, but
simply a Bill providing for the registration of all fo-
reigners, without any allusion to the people of any par-
ticular country. With respect to the present Bill before
the House he should certainly give it his most cordial
support.
Mr. REYNOLDS said that he believed he had acted
perfectly right in postponing his motion for the
second reading of his Bill. The Hon. Members fur
the Tower Hamlets and Oldham, both of whom were so
determined in their opposition to the Bill, seemed to
think that the Bill was admirably adapted to the people
of Dublin, but not to the people of this country.—
(Hear.) Without imputing anything like selfishness
to those Hon. Members, he thought that it would have
been much better if they had opposed the Bill upon the
broader grounds of its naconstatuttons nature. lie be-
lieved that if this Bill were carried the Government
would not be able to obtain any jury in Ireland to pro-
nounce a verdict of guilty upoF, any person who might
bring himself within the provisions of the Act.
(LEFT SPEAKING.)

CHARTIST CONVENTION.

(THIS DAY.)

The members of the Conference re-assembled this
morning at nine o'clock; Mr. M'Grath in the chair.
The minutes of preceding day having been read,
FOREIGNERS IN THIS COUNTRY,

Mr. CLARK drew attention to a conversation which
took place last night in the House of Lords, between the
Duke of Beaufort and the Marquis of Lansdowne, with
reference to a junction between the foreigners at present
in London, and the body calling themselves a National
Convention. Thus, it would be seen, that a Bill had
been proposed to expel all foreigners from this country.
He would call their attention to one of those, known by
the name of Prince Albert, who not long ago refused to
pay his poor-rates, and recommend her Majesty's Mini-
sters to begin by expelling that illustrious personage.

TILE PROFITS OF THE " NORTHERN STAR" NEWSPAPER.

Mr. FUSSELL brought forward a resolution which ho
thought would be carried unanimously, " That tke Con-
vention most respectfully decline the generous offer
made by Mr. O'Connor, to devote the profits of the
orthern Star to support the delegates, during the sitting
toi Lltla c,,,,,,,etiLion AL, _
would cheerfully support the delegates they had sent to
do their business.

Mr. ADAMS would second this resolution. The men
of Glasgow would repudiate such an arrangement.
Mr. CUFFAY proposed that they should receive the
offer of Mr. O'Connor fur the space of three weeks.
No seconder appearing, Mr. Cutray's amendment fell to
the ground.
Mr. Linney and other members indignantly rejected
the motion, that they should be dependant on any man.
Mr. DONOVAN thought that the Convention ought not
to refuse the offer of Mr. O'Connor in the present em-
barrassed state of their finances.
Mr. M`GRATH said that he did not think that it
would be right to receive the whole of the weekly profits
of the Northern Star. He had no objection to receive
anything in the shape of a donation from that gentleman.
He thought that if the people did not support the Con-
vention, the sooner they returned to their constituents
the better.
The resolution was then agreed to unanimously.
RESIGNATION OF Nit. OBRIEN.
A DELEGATE wi: hed to know whether the Chairman
had received any official information of the resignation of
Mr. Bronterre O'Brien?
The CHAIRMAN was understood to answer in the
negative.

IMP'ELCHM"T;OF THE MINISTERS.
Mr. WILKIN SON. one of the members of the committee
appointed yesti 'rday to draw up the form of impeach-
ment of the Ministers, stated that the committee had
agreed that they would not draw :uP the Petition and
.
impeachment until They had received the legal advice of
Mr. O'Connor upon the subject. The committee thought
that if they had th,...4 benefit of' the suggestions of Mr.
O'Connor, the impeachment could be drawn up in such
a formal manner as ,to be t once acted upon by the
House of Commons.

was in the habit of sharing she had been leaked if she
was the wife of the Mr. Cuffay, of the Conve.ntion, and
was then told that her services vvould not be req'uired in
the ensuing week.
EXPENSES OF THE DELEGATES.
Mr. LutiN moved the appointment of a committee' .of

USE or THE TRIFORIUM IN MODERN CHURCHES:
—A correspondent of the Builder suggests that the tri-
forium might be used for lighting churches after dark.
He says—" Each lesser division of the triforium migh t
be filled with stained or embossed glass, and a gas-
burner, with a reflector, placed behind each. The fol-
lowing advantages would be gained by this arrangement.
1. The position these lights would occupy commands
the whole nave, with the opposite aisle of the church.
2. Being entirely away from any of the windows, no
light would be wasted, as is usually the case. 3. Un-
sightly gas-pipes and lamps would be avoided. 4. We
should enjoy the beauties of stained glass as well in the
evening as in the morning.

COWES, ISLE; OF WIGHT.
(FROM OUR OWN COIIRESPONDENT.)
TUESDAY EVENING,

Her Majesty daily takes the .air through the grounds
at Oiborne, in a wheel-chair, attended by the royal
children.

We regret to state that Mr. G. Anson was taken
seriously ill yesterday; the Fairy yacht was sent across
with an express for Dr. Ferguson, who arrived from
town in the night. Drs. Hoffmeister and Cass were also
in attendance—the latter remained at the Pataco all
night. Mr. Anson, we are happy to say, is a little
better to-day.
The Herman, New York steam-packet, arrived at
4.20.; her mails, &c., were forwarded to Southampton
by the Ruby steamer, which had been waiting for them
in our roads since last Monday week.
The Ocean steamer proceeded on for Bremen; she is se
much better looking ship than the Washington, but a.
shortness of her masts prevents her appearing to ad
vantage.
