LONDON, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 18, 1846.

The Lord Chancellor took his seat on the Wooisaok at
F4re o'clock.

.Various petitions baying been presented,
The Earl of CLARENDON moved for certain papers relating
to Oregon.

The Earl of ABERDEEN objected to go into any discussion
until the negetiatons should be concluded, and assured the
Ilevse that the Government were disposed to adopt any
cruciiiatory measure consistent with national honour ; and
if they should he ;forced into a contest, he trusted the civi-
liLed world would do justice to their endeavours to pre-
serve peace.

Lcrd Bar, LICIIAINI, in common with every Christian, would
regret the occurrence of war. It was a thing to be avoided,
Let certainly not to be dreaded. The Noble and Learned
Lord then exp7ained, with regard to the globe, published
by Mr. KNIGHT, to which he alluded on a former occasion,
that Mr. EA E REIT, the Ameaican Minister, was not at all
to blame for the publication in question, which was a mere
publisher's speculation.
The motion was agreed to.
After a short conversation on the subject of the expeditious
manlier in which the Bellerophon had been rigged, in the
course of which high enlogiums were passed on the officers
and men concerned in the operation, the House adjourned.

The SPEAKER took the Kr. Chair atl: our o'clock. -7---- Mr. ra.v took the oaths

Mr. LABOUCHERE presented a petition from the 'Water
man's Steam-packet Company, complaining of the course
pursued to them by the authorities of the city of London,
and asking the House to institute an inquiry into their juris-
diction on the river Thame&

Zir.,WysE gave notice of his intention, on Tuesday next,
to move for leave to bring in a Bill to promote the extension
of art-unions.

Mr. O'CONNELL gave notice of his intention, on the second
reading of the Life and Property Protection ( Ireland) Bill
In move certain resolutions.
Lord DuNcAN postponed, to Tuesday, the 31st of March,
his_motion for the repeal of the window-tax.
On the motion for the further proceeding with the repori
cn the customs (the tariff) being put,
Mr. STAFFORD O'BRIEN took occasion to complain that
the Right Hon. Baronet at the head of the Government
had not proceeded with many of the measuro that
had been promised at the commencement of the ses-
sion. He thought the House had a right to complain
of the manner in which the Right Hon. Baronet had brought,
or rather neglected to bring, what he called his great
scheme before the House. He was anxious to know when
the whole of the scheme was to be brought forward, and he
complained of the absence of the Right lion. Baronet from
the House.
The CirexcEr.Lon of the EXCHEQUER said that the ab-
sence of the Eight }lon. Baronet arose from public business.
The measures that had been alluded to were in a state of pre-
-I)aration, and would be brought forward immediately. There
was every disposition on the part of the Government
to put the House in possession of all these measures in order
that it might form its opinion upon them, but it was thought
desirable that the iLnpettant subjects new under considera-

tion should have the full and undivided attention of the
House.

Sir J. GRAHAM, in answer to a question from Mr. SHAW,
stated that he intended to fix the first order day after the
second reading of the Corn Bill for the first reading of the
Life and Property Protection (Ireland) Bill.
The House then resumed the further consideration of the
report on the Customs Duties (tariff).
On the question that the duty be reduced on the item of
silk-worm gut,
Mr. CAYLEY moved that the item be omitted.
After a short discussion,

Mr. CAYLEY withdrew his motion,
On the proposition for the reduction of the duty on for-
reign brandy,
Mr. Alderman THoMPSON moved that the words "spirits
or strong waters" be struck out. He maintained that it
would be much more beneficial to take ;he excise duty off
soap than do away the great income that was derived from
the duty on brandy.
Mr. EWART supported the reduction, and expressed a
hope that it would be an inducement to France to meet this
country in a similar spirit.
The Marquis of GRANBY was at a loss to know upon what
ground the reduction of the duty could be supported, and he
should therefore give it his most strenuous opposition.
Mr. CARDWELL supported the Government proposition,
and after a short discussion the Hcuse divided, when the
original motion for the reduction was declared to be carried
by a majority of '29 ; there being for the motion 64, and for
Alderman Thompson's amendment 35.
Upon the proposition for taking off the duty on oxen,
bulls, &c.,
Mr. W. MILES opposed the motion, and moved as an
amendment the omission of the words oxen, cows, calves,
beef fresh and salted, but not hams; which, on a division,
was lost by a majority of 49.

The articles, foreign hides and linen, were afterwards
agreed to.

—On the timber duties being proposed,
Lord G. BENTINCK suggested that the farther consideration
should be postponed till Monday.
On the suggestion of Sir R. PEEL,
Mr. PARKER postponed the consideration of his motion on
railway legislation.

The-Cogwhippers' Act was then read a second time, and
ordered to be committed on Monday.
The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and the
House adjourned at Twelve o'clock.

It will be seen by our Parliamentary report of Monday
that Sir ROBERT PEEL presented from the great mercantile
bodies of the city of London a most influential petition,
approving of the Ministerial proposition for the enlargement
of our commerce, and praying that the House would lose no
time in giving effect to it, since, pending their delibera-
tions, the free action of trade was seriously affected. It will
also be observed that immediately after Sir ROBERT PEEL
had resumed his seat Lord Jose RUSSELL postponed his
motion with respect to the state of Ireland until after
Easter. Of the propriety of the course thus pursued by
Lord Jose no doubt can be entertained; it involves more-
over a just compliment towards his constituents of this
great metropolis, where the impolicy and evil effects of pro-
crastination are asssuredly more keenly felt, and justly rea-
soned upon, than in any other part of our empire.
No debate can take place upon Irish affairs, particularly
when heralded in under the auspices of so distinguished a
man as the leader of the Opposition, and particularly under
the unfortunate circumstances by which that ceuntry is at
present so grievously visited, without being suffered to run
to au inordinate length. Neither can a man of such pa-
triotic views as Lord JOHN be insensible to the serious res-
ponsibility that would be incurred by offering any impedi-
ment in the way of the progression of such measures as the
Ministry consider to be imperiously called for to alleviate
the sufferings of the Irish.

This is the first step to be taken, and, doubtless, influ-
enced by this impression, Lord JOHN has done well in
delaying the bringing on of his motion till the
time he has appointed, while disease and famine
are stalking through the land with giant strides,
as too painfully evidenced by the papers re-
cently laid upon the table of the House, unhappily con-
firming the threatening ravages predicted by Sir Rom =T
PEEL at the opening of the session. Anxious as Lord Jonx
RUSSELL may be to enlighten Parliament with respect to the
views his own mind has embraced touching the condition of
Ireland, physical, moral, and political, and no one is better
qualified to undertake so vast a subject, his sense of public
duty urges him to strengthen, and not to divert the arm of
the Government, stretched out to mitigate, as far as human
foresight can accomplish, the heavy afflictions im-
pending over millions of our fellow-countrymen. Again,
by the postponement alluded to, it may be taken as
conceded, that, in regard to prompt remedies for pressing
grievances, Lord JOHN considers the Administration entitled
to approval ; still, every one acquainted with the political
career of Lord Jomx RUSSELL, and mindful of the great
efforts he has made at every period of his life for the redemp-
tion of Ireland, and to which he has resorted under circum-
stances of such adverse combinations of public men, sufficient
to have deterred any but the strongest mind, will rejoice that,
by the notice given, a pledge is secured to the country that
an experienced, comprehensive, and lofty mind will soon be
devoted to the exposition of views touching our future policy
towards Ireland, and by which we may hope to be, in a great
measure, safely led to the much-coveted work of political re-
generation.

The state of Ireland is the great blot upon the escutcheon
of England's public policy; it is a stain which (hitherto
indelible) every patriot would, for the honour of his countr7,
desire to remove, by almost any sacrifice that a combined
spirit of philanthropy and enlightenment could devise or
dictate. Foreigners acquainted with the greatness and glory
of this country would not believe the degraded and re-
proachful condition of one-third part of our empire, were not
the fact too notorious to admit of a doubt. Impressed with
the deep responsibility that attaches itself to our Govern-
ment during the paralysed condition of Ireland, it is en-
livening that we have among us the forerunner of civil and
religious liberty—the champion who has struck off so many
disgraceful shackles under which our statute-book groaned,
and by which freedom was fettered—ready to address him-
self to the ennobling project of extricating us from the mani-
fold perplexities which have hitherto beset our path of legis-
lation for Ireland, and who, by tracing out some clear and
bold outline within which we may successfully and proudly
marshal all our resources, may enable us to elevate the sister
isle to a just equality with England and Scotland.

A Parliamentary return, showing how much, or rather
how little, of the immense sums deposited for the railway
schemes now before Parliament still stands at the credit of
the Accountant-General at the Bank of England, and has
not been invested in Government:securities, under the provi-
sion of the Act 1 and 2 Vic., c. 117, would throw very
considerable light on the present connexion between railway
enterprise and monetary scarcity. If we are rightly in-
formed, above six millions of the railway deposits are still
locked up, directors, who have already lost in selling
out of the funds in order to make the required dope-
sits, being unwilling to add to the loss by investing
again at the higher prices which the funds have maintained
since the time for making the deposits expired, and at the
risk of subsequent depreciation, in the unsettled state of do-
mestic as well as foreign politics. The absurdity of the ex-
isting regulations as to railway deposits has been frequently
expressed by us. The serious consequences of their ab •
surdity are now being deeply felt. If the sums required to be
paid into the Bank to the credit of the Accountant-General,
could either have been paid into the Bank in the name and
to the credit of the directors of the several companies, or
could have been paid in Government securities, there would
have been no abstraction of six millions from the circula-
tio.n; and he who runs may read the share which an abstrac-
tion of six millions from the circulation has had in bringing
about the present scarcity of money and derangement of the
money-market. This important ingredient in the question
will, we trust, not he lost sight of in to-day's diecussior.
of Mr. PARKER'S muck-needed motion.
A Bill is now in -rearliament for altering tte absurd regu-
lations we leave been complaining of. 'Under this Bill (in-
troduced by Mr. Morearr and i‘.:r. GISBORNE), the moneys
are to be deposited in the Bank in the names of the directors
of companies, and where any portion of the sum required
to be deposited by the standing orders has been pre-
viously invested in the Three per Cent. Console, or
Three per Cent. Reduced Bank Annuities, or Exchequer-
bills, or other Government securities, these securities
are to be taken at the price at which they were originally
purchased, the price to be proved by production of the
broker's certificate of the purchase. So sensible a Bill should
meet with no opposition ; but remembering, as we do, the
Chancellor of the Exchequer's complacent mode of viewing
things as they are, when Mr. llama' exposed their mis-
chievous absurdity at the commencement of the session, we
fear that Mr. MoFearr may not have so easy a task before
him as he ought to have; and we trust that he will be well
supported, in case of need.
The motion of Mr. PARKER to clay is for a Com-
mittee "to consider whether precautions eennot be
devised by which the effects of the railway legislation
now pending on the labour and met iey markets
of this country may be provided against." Let the proposal
in Mr. Mooeasn'e Bill for placing the sums at tha Bank in
the names of directors, instead of the Accountant-General,

during the present session. The country is already c 0,...

the railways proposed this session to Parlia:„ent (dedurti::g
for competing lines) is computed at th.lee hundred millions,
' 'in the next five years at
which would have to be found with
most. Such an addition to t
le demand already sanctioned
on the resources of the country cannot be viewed without
great alarm for the effects both on the money and the
labour market,

There is one point which should not be lost sight of in
estimating the future difficulty of getting in calls, and it is
one which will make the difficulty less. Power is now taken
in railway Acts to allow interest (four per cent.) on deposits,
from the time of getting the Act. This was not so with 1

the first railway Acts ; and it is not fair, therefore, to con-
clude, from the difficulties which attended the construction of
the first railways, that there will be the same depre-
ciation of shares and difficulties of getting in calls
with these lately authorised, or now waiting for autho-
risation. Four per cent. interest, though paid, as it must
be, till the works are completed, out of capital, will secure
shares not falling below par. We believe that the shares in
all the railways authorised last session, though they have in
many cases fallen considerably from the high prices of the
mania season, have not fallen in any proportion to the fall
in the value of scrips. But still this may only increase the
disturbance in other branches of industry, by the greater cer-
tainty of the absoption in railways of the large amount of
capital required for the schemes of the present session, of
which Parliament seems, as yet, to have taken no heed, but
to which we trust that Mr. PARKER'S motion will awaken
their most serious attention.

Immediately upon the publication of the Duke of NEW-
CASTLE'S recent address to the British nation it was our
intention to accompany it with such commentaries as we
conceive it fully demanded : circumstances, however, of in-
finitely larger importance have hitherto occupied both our
attention and our columns, and protracted our silence as to
the manifesto issued by his Grace until the present moment.
On returning to this extraordinary document, we are over
powered by a sense of its solemn inanity and nothing-
ness. We are awe-stricken by the exceeding anti-
quity of the thoughts contained in this redoubtable
epistle ; they breath cf the black• letter generation ;
they reek of the curiosity shop ; they are of a hoary east—
their most glaring characteristic is senility. The next
quality in the production which arrests the reader is its won-
derful pomp and lavish exaggeration of style—what some
persons would designate " ornate." Nevertheless there
appears to us something diplomatic and cunning in
the manner in which the strawberry-leaves generally
display a preference to the grandiloquent order of composi-
tion. And by this subterfuge his Grace of Clumber manages
to trick out a few wretched common-places after a fashion
very brilliant and showy indeed. One puff, however, from
common sense !—and the tinsel work is scattered offlike chaff
in a whirlwind, and the ideas are again as bald and as miserably
scalped as ever. " You have witnessed," says the Right
Hon. Scribe, "you have witnessed with astonishment and
detestation the hideous treachery and tergiversation of public
men, which burst forth suddenly upon your incredulous
view in the full blaze of its triumphant deformity, supported
by a shameless effrontery, unexampled in the annals of well-
regulated states." Here we have an aristocratic cypher, tell-
ing the whole British population that they view the recent
occurrences in Parliament with • detestation." This is pre-
cisely analogous to the quack doctor insisting that
his patient had pains in this joint, and rackings in
that, and cramps in the other—subsiding into the
stage-whisper, that if those maladies were not per-
ceptible " they ought to be !" " Triumphant deformity,"
too, is quite an original substitute for an expletive, exceeded
only in its boldness by the notion of deformity " blazing,"
inflammatory hunchbacks, combustible hare-lips, and in-
cendiary club-feet, wandering, doubtless, in the imagination
of the agricultural Peer during the conception of the epithet.
Of his Grace's redundancy, we shall merely observe that
effrontery and shamelessness appear to us synonymous; no-
body surely can be shameless without effrontery, neither
can effrontery be manifested without some indication of
shamelessness. As a testimony, however, of the necessity of
this sequitur, we shall content ourselves with a simple refe-
rence to the Lord of Clumber. Howbeit, there can be no
possible utility in instituting a literary inquisition as to his
Grace's grammar. The schoolboy ferule• marks have un-
doubtedly disappeared long since—slate pencil is not surely a
fit weapon for an oligarch. The only "forms" with which a
ducal head or heart can have any sympathy whatever are
the forms of etiquette, and judging from the Newcastle
"complete letter-writer," we should decidedly say that even
those sympathies are restricted. It is with the morale, the
object, the propriety of this unparalleled epistle, that we
would engage; and after the most deliberate and patient—
we may indeed declare, after the most elaborate
consideration of the matter—we must acknowledge
that a more remarkable piece of spontaneous and
gratuitous impertinence has not proceeded from the
split of a goosequill within our recollection. As
well might Mr. Nobody, representing the opinion of the
smallest parlour in Pimlico, bellow forth his recommenda-
tions to the multitude of Englishman throughout the
United Kingdom, for all our countrymen care, The Duke
of NEWCASTLE is less than in a minority, he stands almost
alone as FALSTAFF stood with his " ragged regiment"
behind the copse at Shrewsbury, while the bat-
tle was raging gloriously in the vicinity, and i
occasionally his Grace rushes in as FALSTAFF
rushed in to pummel away with a " right cowardly sword"
at objects beyond the power or beyond the leisure of offer-
ing any opposition. But upon what ostensible footing does
he undertake to demonstrate the necessity of warring against
the Ministerial innovations ? Why, he simply maintains
protection as a gentlemanly sort of thing, he upholds it be-
cause it smacks not of the canaille policy, and because also of
the several pints of blood he carries in his veins. According
to this line of reasoning, the feudal system should be alto-
gether resuscitated; for agricultural monopoly is unquestion-
ably of feudal extraction ; we should kiss hands again with
every petty baron in the realm ; regulations of matrimony
itself should be tampered with by a revival of the old,
monstrous statute of the bridal night. Taking this as a
fundamental principle in our logic, all our modern enact-
ments aro mere baubles, to be ordered out by the first CROM-
WELL of the aristocracy. Englishmen, however, have become
too discriminating in their political creed to treat platitudes
(even when they are platitudes of correspondents with
coronets) with anything above indifference. Mr. COBDEN
has so accustomed them to sound arguments and new illus-
trations, that our British public have become somewhat
fastidious in legislative rhetoric : it therefore behoves his
Grace of Num:arras to continue henceforth silent.

We have received Madrid journals of the 9th. According
is one of them, the Tiempo, the Spanish Government, by
way of reprisal upon England for her interpretation of the
treaties respecting the admission of sugar from Cuba, has
resolved to increase the tonnage on all English vessels enter-
ing the ports of Spain. That journal approves of this mode
of retaliation, as will be seen from the following extract :--
"It appears certain that our Government has ordered that
English ships, in our ports, should henceforth be treated as
not belonging to the most favoured nation;' consequently,
British merchantmen will pay double tonnage duties, besides
paying the same import duties on British goods as are paid
by other nations with whom we have commercial treaties.
This measure is adopted in consequence of the interpretation
given by the British Minister, Mr. Gladstone, to the treaties
of this kind existing between Spain and England. Accord-
ing to the sophistical reading of the English agent,
these treaties related to persons only, and not to merchandise.
Consequently, in his opinion, we have not the right of intro-
ducing our colonial sugars into England without payment of
the sur-tax, which places them in a worse position than
those of Venezeula and North America. This absurd inter-
pretation, supported by force, excepted by the English Minis-
try, and renewed by Sir R. Peel in his new financial and
fiscal plan, must have been, if not approved, at least sub-
mitted to by us. In such circumstances the plan of Martinez
de la ROS 9, our Minister of Foreign Affairs, ought to have
been to make the best of the matter. In our opinion that.
Minister haszcted rightly in accepting the interpretation of
Mr. Gladstone, and in declaring, in consequence, the onerous
treaties of commerce existing between Spain and England
null and of no force."
On the 9th, the Three per Cents. closed at 29A at sixty
days. The Five per Cents. wore not quoted.

A ;:;seussion of some interest was expected to commence
yesterday, in the French Chamber, on a motion of M.
BE3IUSAT, for excluding all placemen from seats in the
Chamber, and an amendment, or addition, proposed by M.
ODILON BARROT, for the exclusion not only of placemen,
but of all persons receiving pensions from the civil list.
These two classes form a large portion of the Chamber.
According to a report male by M. HEBERT on the subject,
156 Members are public functionaries, who hold their ap-
pointments at the will of the Crown or the Minister : since 1830,
51 Deputies, who entered as independent reprementatives, were
appointed to salaried offices, and 162, who held appointments
were raised to higher offices, thereby increasing the power
of the Crown. The amendment of M. Onreox BAstecer is
strongly censured by the Journal des Debate which It de-
clares is made chiefly to annoy the Ktene. "The Opposition,"
says that paper, "thinks to make itself popular by directing
its attacks egrtlnst royalty itself, for it is well understood
that the incompatibility sought by M, Opttexe liAntecer is
only intended to include motile five or sit 06.1.tra who have
the honour of belonging to the royal household, and who do
not interfere in the slightest degree with the freedom of the
deliberations of the Chamber. It is in royalty that the
Opposition wislies to create distrust. This is the pretext
used to bring forward questions which politeness would fore
bid even ifthe charter did not." On the reading of the minutes
of proceedings which took place in the Chamber on certain
questions put to M. Gurzor by the Marquis DR LA ROCHE-
JAQUEI/X, a little animated conversation took place, in con-
sequence of a strong word used by the Minister having been
changed for another in the report given in the Nortitettr. It
appears that M. Geneve. had said that "it could not be ex-
pected that France should be the haunt (repairs) of all in-
surrections ;" while the word substituted for this in the
Moniteur was diver, or rallying point. The alteration was
readily admitted, which seems to have been made in defe-
rence to public feeling, and the matter dropped. The Con-
stitutionnel thus does justice to M. GUIZOT for making the
alteration :

" M. Guizot had expressed an opinion that ' the Polish re-
fugees ought not to be suffered to convert France into a
repaire for the nurture of revolutions and conspiracies.' That
Word repairc has excited a sentiment of universal reprlba-
ti°4 ai11"...g the Members of the Chamber of Deputies. It is
a 7erd seldom or never employed, except in reference to the
