Sir J. PARINOTON asked for a distinct pledge from
the Government that ►hey would introduce some measure
on this subject.
Sir G. Guur refused to give such pledge.
Mr. KEL,GH opposed, and Mr. SPOONER supported the
Bill.

The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said that the writ of habeas

Mr. S. HERBERT considered this Bill, if passed, would
set a most dangerous precedent.
After a few words from Lord BERNARD,
The House divided, and the Bill WAS rejected by 123
against 91.
The House adj3urned shortly before Six o'clock.

The decision of the Commissioners as to the port
to be selected fur the arrival and departure of the
American mails now begins to be looked for with
anxiety. It is, however, understood that the three
harbours in favour of which the balance of evidence
preponderates are Liverpool, Holyhead, and Galway,
Tne Commissioners, it is believed, will not report
specially in recommendation 'of eny one of them, but
will submit the valuable and extensive evidence they
have collected in favour of and in disparagement of
each, and confine their remarks to a collation of
the evidence, as a judge would charge a jury,
leaving public Opinion to pronounce the verdict.
Perham under all the circumstances, this is the
wisest, as it certainly is the safest course that could
be adopted, fur the question must in the end be de-
cided on national grounds only, and not with refer-
eller to personal and particular interests.
The two extreme ports—Liverpool to the east, and
Galway to the west—have both had their warm ad-
vocates, ani so much has been written and pub-
lished in favour of each, hat we need hardly further
dwell upon them. Whilst the advocates of Galway
dwell upon the intricacies of the navigation to Liver-
pool, and the togs with which it i 4 continually im-
peded, - they will' tell you that 'ouch a thing
as a fog is unknown in their " sweet land
'of the %Vest," and that a few revolutions of the
paddle-wheel will bring the American steamer from
Galway harbour into the broad Atlantic, with a
" westing" and a clear expanse of ocean that it would
take. Liverpool near, thirey hoisra to arrive at; and
this can be accomplished, when the railway is com-
pleted, which it will be by the Ist of August, by
means of rail and steam, in sixteen or seventeen hours
from London.
Liverpool, on the other hand, whilst not denying
the spe-d with which a passenger or a mail-bag can
reach Galway, under favourable circumstances, in-
bits's, that as the trade of America is centered at their
port, it should also be the point of mail embarkation
and arrival; that the difference in time between it
and Galway is more imaginary than real, and that
to reach Liverpool from, say New York, it
will, under any system that makes Galway
the port of arrival and departure, require no less than
four changes of conveyance, namely, one at Galway
itself, one at Dublin, one at Kingstown, and one
at Holyhead, before the mails and passengers shall
finally arrive at their destination—and all these
ehanges have to be made within a distance of 200
miles from Liverpool.
Now it appears to us that whilst this controversy
has been raging between the two outer shells of the
oyster, the middle, or the lawyer's fee, has been nearly,
if nut altogether, lost sight of. Tne men of the
principality have been asleep, but whether from
consciousness of strength or apathy we cannot
determine. Holyhead, however, has, in our opinion,
advantages that cannot, and must not be lost sight of.
Situ-ted at the extreme north-western point of Great
Britain, and surrounded wilt high headlands, that are
rarely obscured by fog, it is accessible to the navi-
gator at all times. A long and protracted investiga-
tion has pointed to it as the most appropriate site tor
a harbour of refuge on that part of the coast, and the
Government, with a liberality that cannot often be
laid at its doors, is expending large sums in
a manner that will not only accomplish
the original object, but will also make it a harbour in
which a ',train trade can be carried on, excPF di, g ica
magnitude that of Liverpool or London at the present
day. Aiready the great sea barrier of the outer har-
bour is run out 2,000 ..ut of 5,000 feet, which is to Le
its ultimate length. Mr. RESDCLL, the engineer, who
has charge of the works, expresses his contilence thst
they can all be completed wi hin two Sears, and that
for the practical putposes of a harbour for steam-
vesse:s of Transatlantic magnitude, it will be
ready within a twelvemonth. At the present time
the railway runs to within 30 feet of the
berth of the Irish packets, and it can be extended
without difficulty and without expense, as soon as
the pier far the large steamers is completed. The
same perfect arrangements that come into effect this
month for the convenience and comfort of the passen-
gers by the Iri:h mail packets, can at once be ren-
dered available for those to or from America.
M its landed at Holyhead are, according to "Brad-
shaw's Tune- book" for the present month, within
three hours and a half of Liverpool, which is, at least,
two hours' less time than any Transatlantic steamer
can run the distance in. It is eight hours' run
by express mail now from Holy head to
London, whereas, reckoning the water distance from
Holyhead to Liverpool as five hours and a half, and
the main speed from Liverpool as six hours and a
hale, there is an advantage of four hours by the Holy
head It'll way route, or a saving of 50 per cent. be-
tween that point and London. Tne same applies to the
manufacturing towns on the London and North-
Western main line, and to all communications with
Bristol and the south-west of England. Holyhead
is distant 120 miles from Manchester, and there being
now one continuous route, that town and the
Ridings of Yorkshire can be reached some three
!lairs more quickly than yid Liverpool. Glasgow
and all-Scotland would be equally benefiasd, because
at Warrington the station of the London and North.
Western Company is also the junction station fo.r the
line between Chester and Manchester, and, in fact,
far Ireland itself: the position of liol.ybead is about
equi distan-

The Stoats Courant publishes an additional con-

It appears that the Minister of Finance is about to

It is evident that the Protectionists intend to

pending vanflict? We fear that in many instances
they are not, and we urge them to lose no time, but
at (nice to organixi themselves; the battle of freedern
must be fought first in the registration courts in the
months of September and October, and then at the

be a doubt but that we shall have an election; neither

! like 8,000 in 1835, to 12,498 in 1850, and the great
mAjority of the newly-registered householders are
Liberals. So confident are the Liberals of their
power, that in moving a vote of thanks to Mr.
GEORGE THOMAS, the chairman, to whose indefati-
gable exertions the success of the association is mainly
attributable, Mr. MICHAEL CASTLE proposed "that
they should next election pl ice their chairman by the
side of their present excellent Member in the House
of Commons, certain that if they did so no city or
town in England would have two more excellent re-
presentatives ;" and, although Mr:GEonaa THomAs
declined the honour thus proffered to him, on tl'e
ground that it was too late in the day for him to seek
Parliamentary hopours, yet the fact of the success
attending upon efficient organization remains, and the
Liberal electors of Bristol have set an example which
we hope will be followed by every constituency in
the kingdom. To the Liberal electors of the empire

MM. DARU, LAcaoesa, and BENOIT D'A ZY hare
been elected Vice. Presidents of the. Assembly for the
ensuing three months ; and MM. YVAN and Moutist
Secretaries.

Unwarned 'by experience, M. LEON FAUCHER has
been again abu,ing the privileges of bis office, by in-
terfering with the elections of representatives. He
has sent off the following dispatch to the Prefect of
the Landes
" PARIS, MAY 9, I 1 A.31.—L0 presence of the ma-
rceuvres which the extreme Opp.sitton direct against
the ti of May 31, 1850, you ought to declare, and co
m,ke known by your Sub Preects, the,: in the opinion
of the: Government the electors, the friend, of order,
otnnot, in consulting the interests of the country, give
their votes except to a candidate who is very d. cided en
defending and maintaining the electoral law of May 31.
—P.S. The party of order unseimously support General
Durrieu, the only one of the candidates WOO has declared
that he will maintain the law of May 31."

. the Aasetobly to the subj.ct, and interpellatiolbs are
to be addressed to the.Misiiater.wbui the qualifics-
, -ions of the new representative for the Landes shall

Lace the combat of the 10 h to have reuoubci.d all. idea

of serious attack. Except a s'ray shot now and toe,
fired everythitg is perfectly quiet. The great trib oi I the Beui Ahl ii for a moment aeitittd. has become
calm, and General C4020D, who relieved General &s-
-quat in his camp of Bibano, sends word that all is trim-
q All near him. Nothing has occurred to justify the
1 amour which lately prevailed at Algiers, that a eenpral
attack was to be made on the tribes of the right bank of
the Sahel, now subject to France, by those on the left
bank, who are still free. The_ preparatory movements
for the formation of the column of Djidgelli are nearly
comple ed, and on the 10th General St. Arnaud will have
commenced his operations. On the western frontier
General de MacMahun is visiting with s .me of the
troops of Tlemcen the A lgerine tribes in that direction.
Neither they nor the tribes of Morocco seem to fe I
alarm at the intended expedition. No perturbation seems
prohable in any part of Algeria."

CHIEF JUSTICE and a Common Jury.)
GEDDES P. WHIT3IORE AND OTHERS.
This was an action in trover to recover the value oil
large quntity of china, glass, and linen, which their
fendants, as official assignees of a bankrupt,:had seits
and disposed of by public auction.

Richard Martin, appeared for the plaintiff; and Sdi
sergeant Shee and Mr. Grady conducted the case'

pleas—not guilty, and the payment of 401. into court.
Mr. Sergeant WILKINS, in stating the case to tt:

in 1843, deposited with Mr. Shooter,
Bull Inn, in Bishopsgate-street, three boxes and tig_
crates containing valuable china and glass and also line;
under an agreement to pay Is. a week for rent or war

property. Many of 'the articles were of a Tell -,"-`eTribe

Learned Sergeant, in conclusion, contended that the sil•

third of their value.
Evidence having been given to prove the above Paste,,
Mr. Sergeant SHEE admitted, on the part of tcybo
