LITERATURE OF THE NINETEENTH CENTURY.
GERMANY.
By Professor 0. L. B. WOLFF, LL.D.
IN the ATHENIEUM MONTHLY PART
for JUNE,

which does not embody the -.principle contained in the foregoing
resOltit iOn:7

The Noble Lord then detailed the Ministerial measure
in a speech which does him infinite credit, and proves that
he possesses in an eminent degree the talents and qualifica-
_tions requisite for the proper discharge of his important
duties. Lord. MORFETII, in treating a subject abounding
with causes of irritation—in which, to say the truth, he
could hardly move a step without trampling on some preju-
dice or scruple—avoided with consummate skill everything
calculated to irritate or to wound. With a mildness and self-
possession, and we may add a clearness, which form a striking,
contrast to the intemperate splutterings and confused ar-
rangements of his gallant predecessors in dice, be unfolded,
explained, and defended the various details of his plan.

For these details we refer our readers to the Report
of the Noble Lord's speech, as we must here confine our-
selves to an outline.

The first part of the Bill relates to the maintenance of
the Clergy ; the second to the future regulation of the
Establishment and the appropriation of the surplus
funds. The tithes, as formerly proposed, both by the Whig
and Tory Administrations, are to be converted into a rent-
charge on the land, payable by the head landlord in the
first instance, and, failing him, by all who hold under him.
This rent charge is to be collected by the Commissioners
of Land Revenue, and the amount is to be fixed at

701. for every 100/. of competition now payable. Two
and a-half per cent. is to be deducted from this 701., for
the expence of collecting, the Commissioners being respon-

Bible to the clergy and to the lay impropriators for the remain-
ing 681. 55., and the clergyman receiving from the perpetuity
fund an additional 5/., so as-to make his income amount

altogether to 731. ss. for every 100/. of Composition. A
revision and re-valuation of this Composition, when
deemed necessary, are to be made. The arrears due for
the years 1831, 1832, and 1833 are not to be provided
for, as the tithe-owners had the option of being paid out of
the million granted by Parliament for that purpose, and
have not availed themselves of it. The remainder of that
million, about 360,0001., is to be applied to pay off the ar-
rears of 1834, and the million itself is to go as many others
have gone before it. There is to be no repayment.
The appropriation part of the measure is disposed of in

the following manner :—There are 860 parishes, in which
the number of Protestants does not amount to fifty. When
any of these parishes, or rather, when any of the benefices
created by a union of two or more of them falls vacant,
the LORD LIEUTENANT in Council is to have the power to
suspend the presentation to such benefice.
In order, hon ever, that every Protestant in Ireland may
have the means of religious instruction and consolation,
should he happen to require it in travelling through
the country, it is provided that in benefices where
there are no Protestants, the clerical duties when required
shall be performed by the incumbent of the next parish, to
whom .5/. per annum is to be allowed for his extra services.
In parishes with fewer than fifty Protestants, the cure of
souls devolves upon the Minister of the next parish, who is
to be allowed a small remuneration, varying from 101. to
50/., for the additional trouble ; or the Ecclesiastical Com-
missioners may, if they see fit, appoint a separtde Curate,
in which latter case the stipend is not to exceed 7.5/. per

annum.

The fund accruing out of the savings occasioned by these
reforms is to be called the " Reserved fund," and is to be
devoted to the purposes of general education. It may pro-
bably amount to from 60,0001. to 100,0001. per annum.

The Ipswich case came again before the House of
Commons last night, when Messrs. DASENT and PILGRIM,
two of the chief agents in that black affair, were, after a
courteous admonition from the Speaker, discharged out of
custody. And here, we suppose, the matter will be allowed
to rest ; fur Lord JOHN RUSSELL expressed himself most
unwilling to enter at present on the question of a prose-
cution for bribery, and the Session is too far advanced to
allow of the time of the House being occupied with such
trifles ! Still, notwithstanding its results, the discussion
will be attended with this good effect, namely, that it will
show fastidious folks how mistaken they have been
in supposing for an instant that bribery and cor-
ruption have anything flagrantly immoral in their
character. They are errors so purely venial that they
may be perpetrated by the most respectable men.
Thus Mr. DASENT, according to the testimony of many
Hon. Members; is a young gentleman of the most promis-
ing virtues and connexions ; and Mr. PILGRIM, an old,
faithful, and exemplary clerk of one of the first houses in
Norwich. As to Messrs. SEWELL and BLAKE, whine
names somehow or other (we profess not to say how) are
strangely mixed up with the Ipswich business, Lord STOR.•
MONT actually staggers under the load of his admiration of
them. According to him, such a spotless couple never
irradiated Norwich with the surpassing splendour of their
virtues. Snow itself shows black beside the whiteness of
their public purity. In fact, not one of the parties, whether
immediately or remotely concerned in the Ipswich affair,
turns out to be otherwise than most " respectable." How
then can the Attorney-General find it in his heart to pro-
secute such men? He must be a monster even to harbour
such an intention. Alas, for the poor Dorchester labou-
rers ! Had they too been respectable, they might have
been let off as easily as Messrs. PILGRIM and DASENT.
Respectability is a potent charm that rarely fails to smooth
the frown of justice. We verily believe that a hundred
Hon. Members would rise and vouch for the perfect in-
tegrity of even Satan himself, could it once be proved to
their satisfaction that he was respectably connected.
We trust, after last night's discussion, we shall hear no
more cant about the horrid sin of bribery. It is clearly a very
venial error. Mr. DASENT has lost no caste by it ; Mr.
PILGRIM is still as exemplary a clerk as ever ; and even
Mr. SPARROW will most probably hop off, in a day or two,
just as briskly as if he had said or done nothing at Ipswich
calculated to throw a gloom over his thoughts. As for
PILGRIM'S plea, that he was induced to act as he did, " at
the instigation of his then employers," it is the most absurd
we ever heard of. What, had not the man the privilege
of distinguishing between right and wrong ? Was he a
mere Helot, to act only as his masters dictated ? Had
they told him to set fire to the Norwich hustings, when
Lord SToßmorrr was haranguing f'rom them, he must—if

his plea be worth anything—have done it ! We have no
patience with such a cringing, sycophantic attempt at jus-
tification. Then, again, look to the man's excuse for hav-
ing forgotten to state to the Committee that he had received
twenty pounds " towards the expenses of his absence," from
Messrs. SEWELL and BLAKE. It had " escaped his me-
mory," forsooth, in consequence of his " agitation," and the
lacerated state of his sensibilities, caused "by the public
gaze and observation in and about the Committee-room !"
Bless the delicate creature ! What a lamb it is ! We
can imagine how the poor thing's face must have blushed—
how it's nerves must have shook—bow it's limbs must have
quivered—at the rude gaze of such an unsentimental as-
sembly as a House of Commons' Committee ! Is it not
astonishing that Mr. FITZROY KELLY should have selected
such a hyper-sensitive agent? Why, if he had taken the
first girl he met at an Ipswich boarding•school, he could not
have made a more injudicious choice. But the truth is, Pm-
Glum's nervousness has no existence, save in his own peti-
tion. The man who could bustle and bluster through a
contested election, is not the man to be agitated by the
,‘ public gaze" of a Committee ; and this the " old and
faithful clerk" of Messrs. SEWELL and BLAKE knows full
as well as we can tell him.
The result of the Ipswich Inquiry has convinced us that
we must have the Ballot, and this, before another year has
passed. It is the necessary, the inevitable sequel of the
Reform Bill, as was well remarked in a petition presented
last night by Mr. GROTE from the inhabitants of Great
Yarmouth—the only safeguard for purity of election ; the
only efficient method for putting an end to the Pilgrim-
practice of bribery. Say what he please, Lord J. RUSSELL
cannot much longer withhold from us this protection ; un-
less indeed he is prepared to prove that the frequency of
corruption is a proof of the increasing morality of the
electors, and as such fraught with all soi ts of political
blessings to the community.

The Paris Papers of Thursday have been all received.
They bring important intelligence from the North of. Spain.
The following telegraphic despatch, which is given in a
second edition of the Journal de Paris, is dated from
Bayonne, the 20th inst. :
,‘Bilboa continued to hold out on the 21st., at night. Generals
Latre and Espartero had arrived at Portagalette at five o'clock in
the evening. and were to introduce supplies into the place at day-
break. It is asserted that Iriarte, with 5,000 men, and Valdez,
with 18 battalions, were marching on Durango."
It is probable that, ere this, the Carlists have retreated

from before Bilboa. The appearance of such a force as that
commanded by ESPARTERO would compel the insurgents
to act on the defensive. Another account of the same date
as above, states, that two Spanish vessels had likewise
arrived ot Bilboa, laden with arms and provisions, and
that their cargoes were safely conveyed within the walls.
It is reported in the diplomatic circles in Paris that
MARTINEZ DE LA ROSA, who is now on his way to Lon-
don and Paris, is to fill the office of Spanish Ambassador
at this Court.

•
We have received from the Newcastle Courant office a
very long Report of a public meeting of Burgesses, held in
that town, on Wednesday last, on the subject of the Mu-
nicipal Corporation Reform Bill now before Parliament.
Unfortunately, from the crowded state of our columns, we
are unable to do justice to the many able _speeches made
at the meeting. The meeting was called by the MAYOR,
at the request of 240 ,Burgesses.
Mr. JOHN HoncsoN proposed the first resolution :
" That it appears to this meeting,that some of the clauses in the
Municipal Corporation Reform Bill, now before Parliament, will
operate unnecessarily in violation of thC rights and property of bur-
gesses, and will effect the entire extinction of that body. '—( Ap-
plause.) Before he sat down, he hail but one or two more words
to say. He was aware that there were some individuals among
them who thought the resolution he had proposed went to a
greater extent than they were likely to succeed in inducing the
Houses of Parliament to agree to ;
To which Mr. JOHN Fine, in a very able speech, moved
the following amendment :
" That this meeting feel grateful to his Majesty's Government
for the sweeping and efficient measure of Municipal Corporation
Reform now proposed, and admit the absolute necessity of such
reform ; but that this meeting petition, that the whole of the
privileges and rights of the burgesses be preserved inviolable, as
far as is consistent with good Municipal Government." This
amendment he submitted to the consideration of the meeting ;
and he cared not whether they adopted the whole or only a part
of it. If they wished to have only a part, they might confine
themselves to a simple expression of gratitude, and an admis-
sion of the necessity of a large measure of reform. After that,
it would be competent for them, and it would moreover be con-
sistent with their characters as Reformers, and as men anxious
to extend the liberties of their countrymen, to object to any part
of the Bill, for he agreed with them in thinking there were
portions of it which required amendment. He called upon them,
consistently with their, address to the throne in 1852 ; with their
petitions to Parliament in 1833 ; and with their character as inde-
pendent men and Reformers, to adopt as a preamble to any altera-
tions they might suggest in the details of the Bill, a resolution ex-
pressive of their approval of the general principles of the Bill, and
of their conviction of the necessity of a sweeping measure of Mu-
nicipal Reform.—(Applause.) If they would be induced by the
arguments which he had used, instead of those brought before them
by the friends of a self-elected body ; if they believed in his sin-
cerity rather than in theirs ; if they were consistent with them-
selves; if they would do their utmost to preserve their privileges
and rights, they would adopt the amendment which he had proposed
to the resolution.—(Loud applause.) The amendment finally
took the following form :—" That this meeting feel grateful to the
Government for the extensive measure of Municipal Corporation
Reform now in a Committee of the House of Commons ; and that
this meeting acknowledge the necessity of such a measure."
The amendment was put and carried, amidst loud cheer-
ing. This does great honour to the Reformers of New-
castle.
