Well—the House very soon entered into a consi-
deration of the Bill for the prevention of Sunday
trading in the metropolis, and, after a very tedious
deliberation of the matter, resolved definitively upon
its rejection. Here, of course, there was no wasting
of public time whatever ! A reference, no matter
how cursory, to the debate of Wednesday will be
sufficient, we believe, to convince every dispassionate
mind of the justice with which the popular represen-
tatives decided upon throwing out this absurd mea-
sure introduced by the Member for the borough of
Lambeth. The mere drawing up of the Bill was
expressive of the folly of the entire undertaking.
The things prohibited and the things excepted pre-
sent a confusion of ideas upon the subject absolutely
ludicrous in its extravagance. For example, no meat
was to be sold, but drugs might be vended literally
usque ad nauseam. No game or poultry might be ex-
posed for sale, but milk or cream might flow on
uninterruptedly. There was to be no fish, but there
might be plenty of newspapers. And, with all the
more wholesome provisions and beverages scrupu-
lously tabooed, the public might at the same time
take its fill of sour apples and stale pastry, and diluted
ginger beer and adulterated tobacco! The folly of
all this elaborate bigotry on the part of the Sabbata-
or

as addressed, without any delay, and at the risk of Atkinson and Co. Sir JAMES DUNE moved as an amendment that the
Bill be committed that day six months. -
A desultory discussion followed, in the course of
which

Mr. CORNEWILL Lzwis gave an assurance that it was
not intended that the Commissioners appointed under
the Bill should be paid, neither would any grant of pub-
lic money be asked for the erection of the new market,
as it was caculated that the tolls would be amply suffi-
cient to defray every expense.
Upon a division, Sir J. DUKE'S motion was negatived
by 64 against 26, and the House went into Committee
upon the Bill, upon which it was engaged during the
remainder of the morning sitting, protracted until four
o'clock.
The evening sitting commenced at Six o'clock, when
Mr. HEYWOOD moved a resolution that the House
would resolve itself into a Committee to consider the re-
ligious tests imposed as a qualification for any civil
corporate privilege in the Universities and colleges of
Oxford, Cambridge, and Du blin.
Mr. EWART seconded the motion.
Mr. CAMPBELL considered that this reform could be
more effectually and more harmoniously carried into
effect by the Universities themselves than by Parliament.
Lord JOHN RUSSELL considered the motion went too
far. He was a cordial friend to the admission of Dis-
senters to the Universities for the purposes of study, but
he was opposed to their becoming part of the governing
body.
Mr. MILDER GIBSON was speaking in support of the
motion when the House was counted out, there being
only 38 Members present.
The House adjourned at a Quarter to Eight o'clock.

A climax, we rejoice to think, has at length been
attained in the preposterous movement of the Sabba-
tarians. Having failed in every other endeavour to
foist their fanatical practices upon the community,
they have at length experienced a defeat in their
efforts to interfere with Sunday trading. Immedi-
ately prior to the discussion provoked in the House of
Commons on the Bill introduced to the Legislature
by the Hon. Member for Lambeth, there occurred a
preliminary squabble, admirably in keeping with
the indecorum of the intended innovation. It ori-
ginated in an interruption by Mr. WILLIAi MS him-
self, an interruption as indecent in its imperti-
nence as it was worthy of the champion of the
more bigotted Sabbatarians. In moving a new writ
for the city of Bath, Sir ROBERT INGLIS availed him-
self of the opportunity to enunciate those feelings
of respect which are felt not merely by himself, but by
a very large portion of the community in like
manner, for the character of the distinguished Noble-
man now elevated by hereditary succession to the
House of Peers by the title of Earl of SHAFTESBURY.
Referring as these eulogistic remarks did to one of
the benevolent men for our generation, to a man
whose benevolence has been practically demonstrated,
both in his own private capacity and in his posi-
tion as one of the national representatives, it
might have been anticipated with confidence that no
individual would have the temerity to interpose be-
tween the panegyrist and the object of his conscien-
tious encomiums. Yet such was absolutely the case
on Wednesday evening, when the Hon. Baronet the
Member for the University of Oxford was assailed
by the Member for Lambeth as a person wasting the
public time by observations uncalled for, if they
were not actually frivolous. "The House," said
Mr. WILLIAMS, " has assembled to proceed
with certain Bills, and the Hon. Baronet is
occupying our attention with praises of Lord
ASHLEY." A most grievous informality, to be sure—
"praises of Lord ASHLEY." They were distressing to
the ears of the Member for Lambeth. Had they been
eulogiums on that Hon. Representative instead of on
the present Earl of SHAFTESBURY, the thing might
have been marvellously different. But they were
praises of Lord ASHLEY, and therefore they welt to
be reprobated as culpable. Sir ROBERT Imams was
wasting the time of the House of Commons
by a few minutes' allusion to the hu-
mane and generous-hearted patrician who had
just been removed by a domestic calamity from
amongst the ranks of the English representatives ;
and yet Mr. WILLIAMS, of course, was not wasting
that time immediately afterwards, when he exhausted
an hour of the same sitting by an abortive effort to
force a fanatical measure about Sunday trading
through the lower branch of the Imperial Legislature.
Estimate at their very narrowest value the benefits
conferred upon the State by the philanthropic efforts
of Lord ASHLEY, and we believe the entire com-
munity will concur in the opinion that he was to the
full entitled to the encomiums pronounced upon him
with such generous earnestness by Sir ROBERT
INGLIS, who designated him with an emphasis nobly
deserved, though somewhat Celtic, it is true—" The
friend of the friendless." His efforts to alleviate the
sufferings of the unfortunate creatures employed in
the mines, his endeavours, not altogether unsuccess-
ful, to ameliorate the condition of . the females and
children engaged in the labours of the factories, his
personal exertions in behalf of the working classes
generally—exertions made in defiance of every
loathsome and repulsive impediment, were enough,
one would think, to prevent any individual
from complaining that a few minutes of the time of
the House of Commons was occupied by allusions to
this benevolent career, a career almost unexampled in
its spontaneous and untiring philanthropy. But it is
distressing at all times for a narrow mind to hear
the commendations pronounced upon another person,
more particularly if those commendations happen to
be as fully merited as they are by the present Earl of
SHAFTESBURY. Besides which, Mr. WILLIAMS
had to bring on his precious Bill :Plating to
Sunday trading, and therefore it Ise!, of
course, intolerable that the House should be
thus prevented from proceeding at once to the consi-
deration of that important measure of his enforcing
the old fanatical humbug of those most intolerable
of all fanatics—the Sabbatarians.

placed implicit confidence in the national faith.
and preferred our friendship to our enmity. He
might possibly have been a formidable opponent, oc-
casioning doubtful, and, under the most favourable
circumstances, sanguinary and expensive contests ;
and if he could have supposed that his " faithful
allies" would have absorbed, or rather annexed his
territories, and even confiscated his private property,
we can scarcely hesitate as to the course which he
would have adopted. He would have struggled to
the last, and died in harness, resisting the invader to
the last, rather than have allowed his insidious oppo-
nents to have gained a footing in his dominions.
But, as we have stated, " protection" in those days
was not merely illusory ; it was something different
from the " protection" afforded to domestic animals,
which kept off any other assailant, in order that the
benevolent guardian might devour the victim at any
time that was most convenient. The shepherd
watched over his flock and banished the wolf from the
fold, but he sheared the fleeces to make clothes, and
converted the flesh into human food. It may well be
doubted whether the victim did not pay rather
too dearly for the vigilance exercised in its favour,
and so, possibly, may the native Princes now believe
they will in turn be required to do, when it may suit
the purpose of their faithful guardians to seize upon
their possessions, public and private. The cases of the
unfortunate PEETAUB SINGH, and of his still more
unfortunate successor—TRIMBUEJEE RAJA, the de
jure Raja of Sattara—will serve as beacon lights to
warn those who have as yet avoided the meshes of the
net spread for the native powers of what they may
expect from their affectionate friends, when the fitting
opportunity for their destruction may have arrived.
The motion of Colonel Dlcazrisort, at the Quar-
terly General Court of the East India Company,
which was held on Wednesday at the East India
House, Leadenhall-street, was exceedingly appropriate
and well-timed. The Hon. and Gallant Proprietor

proposed—
" That a list should be prepared, with as little delay
as possible, and laid before the Court of Proprietors, of
those native states with which treaties have been en-
tered into by the British Government, the chiefs of
which are thereby deprived of any of the rights or pri-
vileges of adoption without the consent of the paramount
power."
The Chairman felt it "impossible to divine the object
of that motion," but it seemed to us that the dis-
tinguished officer by whom it was brought forward
placed it upon the most distinct and intelligible
grounds, that any person of ordinary abilities, un-
tainted by prejudice, might easily comprehend the
motives by which he was influenced. He cited the case
of the Nabob of SURAT, and the deep injustice inflicted
upon his family after his:decease. He complained of
the proclamation of Lord ELLENBOROUGII, which prac-
tically abrogated the most sacred custom of the Hindoo
law, and invaded one of the most unquestionable
privileges of all professors of the Hindoo religion,
from the highest potentate to the humblest peasant,
and of the measure which had been passed through
the Legislature, which by taking away the power
of appeal deprived the injured parties of
the power of obtaining redress, however un-
warranted the treatment they might have experienced ;
and he openly and unequivocally declared that "he
wished to give the families notice of what would be
their fate when the time arrived that they were to
lose their independence."
But if any doubts could have remained, after the
clear and distinct avowals of Colonel Dicumisort,
they must have been completely dispelled by the ad-
mirable speech, the able and masterly argument of
Mr. SULLIVAN. That respected gentleman had full
opportunities of arriving at some conclusions. He
had faithfully and honourably served his country
in various districts ; his character bad ever
been unimpeached, as it was unimpeach-
able, and his motives could not be im-
pugned, for he took the part of the feeble and
helpless against the mighty and powerful. From
those whose interests he was advocating he could hop*
for no benefits, while a broad path for ambition lay
before him if, with his vast experience and unques-
tionable ability, be went along with the Company,
and sanctioned their usurpations with the high au-
thority of his name. The sacred cause of justice was
to him more valuable than any private adgantages
which he might have acquired for himself. The chi-
valry of his nature guided and directed him into the
course which he deliberately and advisedly pursued.
'We have it, then, on this high authority, that the
British Government in India have treaties with no
less than 150 native Princes, and if the precedent
established by the Sattara case is to be followed up,
if that blot is not to be removed from the page of
Indian history, it is right that those parties should be
warned in time of the interpretation which we peace
upon such contracts. They should learn that they
have only life interests in their principalities, and
that they cannot ensure their families from absolute
want even by limiting their expenditure, and
setting aside a considerable portion of their revenues,
unless those savings be invested in the hands of the
very parties whose proceedings might endanger their
safety. The organ of acquisitiveness is so strongly
developed by the Company, that no other precaution
will be adequate to the crisis. It may not be a literal
levying of" black mail," but perhaps it might be dif-
ficult to distinguish from that nice morality by which
ROB Ror was influenced, which prevented him from
taking anything from those who placed their
flocks and herds under his protection. It
would have been well for PERTAUB &Nan, if his
26 lace of rupees had been placed in the treasury of
the Company. His adopted child would not have been
left in a comparatively destitute and penniless con.
dition.

The inconsistency of the Chairman in now advo-
cating the arbitrary course pursued—a course so
contrary to his former sentiments—was well exposed
by Mr. SULLIVAN. That gentleman, before he filled
the position of chairman, denounced the confiscation
of the property and rights of the Baja of SATTARA.
He now adopts a new view of the case. He
considers that we may, if we please, re-
fuse our sanction to the act of adoption.
" Adoption," said he, on Wednesday, the 18th of
June, " adoption, it was true, required the sanction of
the paramount power, and that was occasionally
withheld, but it was not by virtue of any treaty
that such a power existed ;" while, on the 6th of
January, 1849, he recorded his dissent to the resolu-
tion of the majority of the directors for the fol-
lowing among other reasons :
" The privilege of adopting heirs to principalities and
states, as well as to private property, has existed from
time immemorial in Hindoo countries, and it is a privilege
which is still dearly cherished by the people, not only as a
civil right, but as a religious duty. I admit that the prac-
tice of the British Government in India has not been
uniform in reference to the sanction of adoptions. In
some cases we have acceded, and in others we have
withheld our consent; but there is no instance on record
of the refusal to sanction an adoption of an heir, or
of the resumption of a territory, held by a Sovereign under
treaty,"

GERMANY.
A telegraphic dispatch from Berlin, dated the 18th,
says :—" The Prussian Gazette declares that the reali-
zation of the principle of representation by states will
not be followed by any administrative measures, the
object of the Government being to develop the con-
stitutional regime."
A telegraphic dispatch from Frankfort, dated the
18th, states that the federal troops are to evacute
Hesse Cassel at the beginning of next month, at
which time a corps of 10,000 men will be concentrated
in the environs of Frankfort.
The report of the third commission of the Dresden
Conferenees on the formation of a customs and com-
mercial union for the whole of Germany has just been
published, from which it appears that the question
will be submitted for the deliberation of the German
Diet, and that in the year 1858 a Congress will be
summoned to Frankfort to discuss it. Up to that
period no state will be permitted to enter into a com-
mercial treaty which will form an impediment to the
general union. The union will embrace all the states
of Austria, which is considered to be another proof
that the entry of Austria, with all her states, into the
Confederation is certain to take place.

We do not wonder, then, at the anxiety of Sir
JAMES HOGG to lead the Court away from the in-
convenient and unpalatable topic, or that his in-
genuity should be exercised in persuading the
proprietors that the Sattara question was finally dis-
posed of. ult was ever Sattara, Sattara, Sattara,
and for twelve years past the cry had been Sattara,"
said the Deputy-Chairman. So it has been ; and so,
we venture to assert, it will be, so long as truth and
justice and the love of fair play predominate in the
English character, until the redress of the grievances
under which the unfortunate heir is suffering, or
until the public are satisfied by a fair and impartial
investigation that the punishment inflicted on a Sove.
reign Prince, upon evidence which would not have
justified the conviction of a pickpocket before an un-
prejudiced jury, was justly merited; until then the
cry of "Sattara" and for justice to the deposed RAJA
will be dinned into his ears at every Court, and in the

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC,

e have received the Paris journals of yesterday.
There was a "scene" in the Assembly on Wed-
nesday at the conclusion of the discussion on the
Lyons Police Bill, occasioned by the designation
"abominable" applied by M. LEON FAUCLIER to the
speech of M. PELLETIER, a Socialist Deputy, against
the measure. The scene is thus described in the
Parliamentary reports of the journals :
" The accent which the Hon. Gentleman gave to the
word abominable' called forth the loudest cheers from
the Right. The Members then rushed down from their
places, and, collecting in an immense mass round the
bottom of the tribune, continued cheering and clapping
their hands for several minutes. Over and over again
this nsanifestation was repeated, the Left appearing all
the while deeply annoyed. It is not too much to say
that 200 Members left their places to give M. Leon
Faucher this ovation. Amongst the Members round
the tribune energetically applauding was General
Changarnier."
Ultimately the first article of the Bill was adopted
by a large majority.
The Paris correspondent of the Independance of
Brussels gives the following account of the FORCADE-
CARLIER affair !--
" A most strange rumour was afloat to-day concern-
ing the affair Lemulier: it was said that M. Carlier had
written notes and handed them over to M. Forcade at
the moment of a great Orleanist plot, in which the Pre-
fect of Police was mixed up, as well as General Chan-
garnier. It was at the period of the Permanent Com-
mittee. M. Carlier, it is said, afterwards wished to
again obtain possession of the documents, but they were
already in the hands of M. de Lasteyrie. I would not
mention to you this most unlikely story if it had not
been current in the Assembly, and if the Left and the
Legitimatists had not so explained the vote of the Or-
in general, and of M. J. de Lasteyrie in
lapra,nyotwithstanding the anti-Elysean ardour
he has hitherto exhibited. What I can affirm is,
twillheahaarintteiihestut party
he member of these two parties were recrimi-
nating to-day in the moat violent manner against the
adoption of the order of the day pure and simple. Some
of the Elyedie followers shared in this anger and these
suspicions, and regretted having voted against the in-
quiry. However improbable may be this Orleanist plot,
and which has suddenly thrown the Legitimatists on the
side of the Elysee, its resurrection has been again ef-
fected, and is the great gossip of the day. As to the
affair Lemulier, the friends of that representative defend
him in this way :—They declare that he had lent M. La-
cordaire (for the name is now openly mentioned) consi-
derable sums of money. This latter had compromised
his fortune by building speculations. When he obtained
his present place at the Gobelins manufactory, M. Lemu-
lier, who bad not aided him in any way in obtaining it (at
least, so say M. Lemulier's friends) threatened to take
proceedings against him; and, in order to prevent that
measure,gave him power to draw halfhis salary. The whole
question consequently depends on the share which M.
Lemulier had in M. Lacordaire's obtaining his situation.
But even supposing that it was obtained through him,
there would not be a shadow of offence, so that an in-
quiry, whether administrative or judicial, would be good
for nothing, as it could not lead to any charge against
M. Lemulier, M. Lacordaire, or M. earlier, who had
not had any intention to make his notes public, or con-
sequently to libel any one. It was remarked with sur-
prise that M. Lemulier did not vote, and that after his
proposition for an inquiry he did not vote against the
order of thelrlay. General d'Hautpoul was more precise,
he voted against it,:as did M. Larabit. It is not true, as
some persons have asserted, that all the friends of the
Elysea voted for the order of the day. MM. Abbatucci,
Gavini, Dabraux, and Garnon voted against it, either
from susceptibility as parliamentary men, or for the rea-
sons which I mentioned above."
The PRESIDENT of the Republic has announced his
intention of reviewing different portions of the gar-
rison of Paris on the 24th and the 26th ; and on the
28th of reviewing the garrisons of Versailles and St.
Germains. This announcement is commented on
with severity in the Republican journals.
The Committee on Internal Administration met on
Wednesday, and elected M. DE LARCY as its reporter
on the law respecting the councils of prefecture. The
Committee then discussed the report of M. DE VATS-
AIES/4IL on the municipal law. The discussion on this
• subject became stormy ; in the course of it M. DE
VATIMESNIL declared that he would give in his resig-
nation as reporter, and tear up his report if the Com-
mittee should suppress his eulogium on the electoral
law of the 31st of May. The Committee adjourned
the discussion on this point until the following day.
The Committee on the Avignon Railway Bill re-
jected, by a majority of 9 to 4, the proposition of M.
FREMY for appointing a sub-committee to draw up
conditions for the companies.
The report of M. DE Moucuy on the Bill applying
for supplementary credits for the Bordeaux and
Strasburg Railways was distributed yesterday. The
sums in question are 14,600,000 f. for the former, and
17,700,000 f. for the latter ; and they are intended to
enable the State to execute the works which, by the
cahier des charges, it is obliged to defray the expense
of in these two lines. The report recommends the
Assembly to vote the Bill.
The Bourse was extremely dull, and there was very
little business transacted. The Five per Cents. opened

SPAIN.
Madrid journals of the 14th have arrived.
A strong discussion had been expected in the
Chamber of Deputies on that day, on a proposition of
Senor MANUEL BERMUDEI DE CASTRO, for a vote
of censure on the Ministry for their conduct in the
late elections, but it was deferred by a which occurred. The Government
having
forward a measure, which had been
passed brought
by th
former Chamber, but not by the Senate, several De-
e
puties rose and contested the right of the Government
to again bring it forward. Senor BRAVO iriam.° endeavoured to refute this argument, and the discus-
sion Was likely to last too long for the proposition of
Senor BERAIUDEZ DR CASTRO to be brought on that
day.
It is expected that a Bill relative to the railway
from Aranjuez to Alicant will be presented during
the present session. This line, it is supposed, will
be conceded to Senor SALAMANCA, who will receive
from the Government by way of subvention 300 mil-
lions of reels in Three per Cent. Stock at 40.
There is at first to be only one line of rails, and the
line is to be completed in three years.
A telegraphic dispatch from Madrid of the 17th
has been received in Paris. It is as follows :
"Yesterday the Ministry ented to the Cortes the
project for the regulation oft he debt. which is in con-
formity with the one presented to the preceding Cortes."
