DURHAM UNIVERSITY.

Sir JAI IES SCARLETT brought up the report of
the Committee on the Durham University Bill, which had
been reported without any amendment.
Mr. HUME begged to ask if the attention of the Com-
mittee had been directed to the insertion of a clause, pro-
viding that persons of every religious denomination should
be admitted to all the privileges of the University?
Sir JAMES SCARLETT said this was a simple
Estate Bill, giving power to invest the estate in trustees,
and could not contain any such clause as was wished by the
Hon. Member ; when the 8,1 l to establish the University
came before the House, or upon application for a Charter,
such a clause could he proposed.
After a few words from Mr. J. WOOD in favour of such
a clause,

Sir M. W. RIDLEY expressed himself very
favourable to dissenters ; but there was nothing in this
regarding the regulation of the University; it only em-
powered the Dean and Chapter of Durham to dispose of
certain estates in order to raise the necessary funds.
Mr. JOHN WOOD said the Bishop and Dean and
Chapter of Durham were to be visitors of the University,
and he understood it was their intention to give certain
privileges to members of the Chwch of England and not
to dissenters. The Hon. Merubtr for Boston had given
notice of his intention to introduce isclause, and it would
be much bar to postpone the report, in order to give
notice of it. At all events, there should be some delay
between the report and the third reading, and he begged
to press this proposition on the House.

Sir J. SCARLETT did not know how it was the
Hon. Member for Boston was not now in his place. The
report had not been brought up until the latest period,
and any further delay would be attended with expense, as
the agents would have to be kept in town.
Mr. HUME said the Hon. Member for Boston would
be in his place 'on the third reading. The 1311
gave power to the Dean and Chapter to appropriate
and to empower them to make
they
tlought proper. He appealed to
ts11"21(1 o.eo rN;bullelaotfinLopous us lirbdc money,opposite (Althorp) whether the Bill
should be agreed to without some assurance that the Uni-
versity would not be made use of for party purposes.
Lord ALTHORP said, the Dean and Chapter wished to
have the Bill passed to enable them to establish an Univer-
sity endowed entirely from the funds of the Chapter of
Durham. The object of the University was to give edu-
cation to all classes of his Majesty's subjects, but the de-
grees were only to be given to Members of the Church of
England. It was rather hard on them, the Members of
the Church of England, if they were not permitted to apply
the funds belonging to the Church to educate children
of their own persuasion ; but if any money were raised by
public subscription among persons of all religious denomi-
nations, he would then certainly be against any system of
exclusion. As, however, it was 411 Church property, they
were perfectly justified in saying that it should only be
applied to members of the Church of England. He under-
stood that if the House insisted on introducing the proposed
clause, the University would not be established. They had
no right whatever to insist on its insertion; but
if they did, the country would lose the advantage
of the University ; and it was not only a loss to the Cler-
gymen of the Church of England, but to all religious de-
nominations, abort only of the degrees. Excepting giving
an advantage to persons practising fur the Bar, the
degrees would only be advantageous to persons
who wished to he Ministers of the Church of
England. The dissenters, therefore, would scarcely be
excluded from anything, and it was surely not unreasonable
that the degrees should be applied to Members of the
Church of England. He was strongly disposed to favour
Dissenters, but did not think this was a claim founded on
justice, and therefore he could not concur in it.
After some observations from Mr. Noon and an Hon.
Member, whose name we could not ascertain,
Sir JAMES SCARLETT consented, though at great
inconvenience to biin, to postpone the third reading of the
Bill till to- morrow.

Sir ROBERT PEEL thought his Learned Friend had
exercis,d a sound discretion in agreeing to the delay proposed
by the Hon. Member for Middlesex. He thought the pro-
posal made by the Bill was one that no man could complain
of, but must greatly commend. That proposition was the
giving up of certain property to so laudable a purpose as
founding a University. The Bishop of Durham presided
over this body, who had agreed to so laudable a sacrifice,
than whom a more conscientious or upright man did not
exist. The distance, as must be apparent to all Hon.
Members, of the Universities from the northern parts of
England, was the means of preventing many young men
from studying for the Church.
After some observations from Sir J. NicHoz,„ which
were inaudible in the gallery,
The Bill was ordered to be read a third time to-morrow.

The SHERIFFS of London presented a petition from the
Lord Mayor and Aldermen, praying for leave to bring in
a Bill to establish a more efficient police.

- ------- - .... _
Mr. A. JOHNSTON., presented a petition from Cupar
against the qualification clause, which required Members
for counties to have property to the extent of 6001. per
annum, and 3001. for boroughs.
Mr. HUME supported the petition. The ancient qua-
lification in Scotland was merely that the candidate
should be a voter, and be did not think this was
a time for imposing upon that country a measure of the
sort so much complained of.
Mr. STRICKLAND presented a petition from the
Council of the Political Union of Leeds, praying that
Ireland might have as beneficial a measure of Reform as
England had got.
Mr. O'CONNELL could not let the present opportu-
nity pass without expressing his deep gratitude to
the petitioners. He firmly believed that it was
through the strenuous exertions of the English
people that the Ministry had given way on a
former
the active Members of the Government been in the House,
he would
night upon such an important point. Had any of
ng the registration clause.
After a few words from the SrEAYER, the petition
have impressed upon them the necessity of re-
visi
was withdrawn, as it purported to be from the Council as
a body, and not as individuals.
Mr. STRICKLAND then presented a petition from the

Druggists of Newcastle, praying that thelalteration in th,
duties on drugs might be postponed till 1833.
Lord MORPETH presented a petition from the county of
York, signed by 138.652 persons of all classes, and mea-
suring i❑ length 2,322 feet, in favour of the Factories Bill.
There had been, he knew, no improper means or undue
artifice resorted to, in order to swell the amount of tht
signatures. He considered the argument of the petitioners
could not provoke discussion on the point of principle, what-
ever opinion might be entertained as to the difficulty and
delicacy of its practical application. In the present system
there were evils so obvious, abuses so crying, and sufferings
so intense, as to make a measure of proper remedy and
regulation imperative in the Legislature.
Sir J. Johnstone, Mr. Strickland, Mr. Hope, Mr.
Dixon, snd Mr. Briscoe, spoke upon the petition, which
was ordered to lie on the table.
BUSINESS OF THE HOUSE.

Lord ALTHORP hoped the state of the business before
the House would be considered his sufficient excuse for
making some alteration in the order of that business.
There was one Bill, the Scotch Reform Bill, which it was
of great importance should pass in time to come into ope-
ration within the period contemplated by Parliament.
What he wished was not to postpone the Bill to a period
too late for the registration to take effect, and he should
therefore move the third reading of the Bill, unless any
particul objection were made to the motion.
Mr. DIXON rose to present a p'tition, which be said
was of importance as connected with this measnre.
Mr. BENETT should have no objection to give way,
with this understanding, that his (Mr. Benett's) Bill re-
garding Liverpool should not lose its precedence.
Mr. A. BARING was desirous that some day should be
fixed for the discussion of the Bill which be had brought
in for regulating the privileges of Members. He intended
to move an amedment to it, but still he was sure it would
not take up many minutes' discussion.
Lord ALTHORP said—perhaps the Hon. Member, if
he pressed his motion would find some convenient day
shortly for bringing it forward.
Mr. A. BARING was anxious that some other day
should be fixed upon.
Lord ALTHORP said his difficulty was this,—that if
a day were fixed for bringing forward the Bill in ques-

tisn, other Honourable Members would expect to have
similar arrangements made for them.
Here a desultory conversation took place between Mr. A.
Baring, Mr. Hume, Mr. Stanley, and Mr. W. Brougham,
as to the order in which the husine.s before the House
should be taken up, but it ended without coming to any
arrangement or underetanding.
In reply to a question from Mr. GouLauttx,
Mr. STANLEY could not consent to delay the passing
of the Party Processions (Ireland) Bill.
Sir R. PEEL said, in reference to what had fallen from
the Noble Lord and his Hon. Friend the Member for
Thetford, that he (Sir R. Peel) thought it best the Scotch
Bill should come on first, and then they might take up the
Bill of his Hon. Friend, who, he hoped, would persevere
in it.

Mr. Berrarr and Mr. RCTHVEN made each some re-
marks, which were inaudible.
The conversation ended here, without any result except
that the Liverpool Franchise Bill should be brought on
next Wednesday, and that Mr. Baring's Privilege of Par.
liament Bill should be taken immediately after the discus.
sion on the Scotch Reform Bill.

Mr. HUME presented four petitions from parties in
Scotland against the qualification clause in the Scotch
Bill.

Lord PALMERSTON presented copies of the Can-
•entions between his Majesty and the Empires of Rossit
and the Brazil,

Mr. BARING wished to know if the convention with
R&ssia referred to the loan. He also wished to know
what course the Government intended to pursue. The
House ought not to be committed.
Lord ALTHORP and Lord PALMERSTON' said a
very few- words, but were very indistinctly heard.
We understood them to tiy that the Government
'bad no ..intention to comrlilt the House. When
the Convention was ratified ,it,.--would be regularly
laid before the.-House. It containglii clause having re-
ference to the loan.
Mr. DIXON wished to knoNilithe r the Goverti-
ment would guarantee the payment ofCe Brazilian bonds
granted in indemnity to British claimants?
Lord PALMERSTON said that full instructions bad
been sent out.

After a few more remarks, the'papera were ordered to be
printed.
SCOTCH REFORM RILL.

The Order of the Day was then read for the third read-
ing of the Scotch Reform Bill.
Lord ALTHORP thought it would he impolitic to con-
tend very strictly for the enforcement of the qualification for
Members. As a proof of the justice of that position he might
enumerate the names of Mr. Pitt, Mr. Fox, Mr. Sheridan,
Mr. Burke, and marry others. He had, however, thought
it would be advisable to put the qualification in Scotland
on a fboting with 'that in England, but he found that the
change was greatly objected to ; and the objections came
riot only from the Political Unions, but from persons of
high station and character. He did not himself see any
great objection to the qualification, but, as there was a
strong feeling opposed to it, he should not resist the amend-
ment proposed. He should therefore be content to leave
the qualification as it at present stood with respect to
towns, and to fix the county qualification at 4001. a year.
Mr. R. A. DUNDAS would not offer any further op-
position to the Bill. He regretted that there was not to
be some qualification for boroughs. It was a bard case
that a person not fitted to represent Carlisle, or any other
town in the north of England, should he thrown upon
Scotland.

Mr. DIXON, notwithstanding the concession of the
Noble Lord, was not content. He was desirous to see all
estate qualification done away with. He certainly should
divide the House against the whole clause. The whole
voice of Scotland desired the change.

Mr. SINCLAIR was decidedly of opinion that there
ought to be a qualification in Scotland. There had always
confessedly been one with respect to counties, and in his
opinion one' with respect to towns. But, whether there
had been a qualification or not, a new ustein was now to
be introduced, and it ought to be wholly`aeled upon.—
(Hear.) He contended that the sense of Scotland had
not been taken. In his opinion the Goverbutent were
giving way once more to Political Unions. It was true
the Noble Lord had mentioned respectable names in sup-
port of the change, but it was also true that the Otale-
men mentioned were much mixed up with populterneet-
ings. He made these remarks not for the purpose of op-
posing the Bill. He now considered that Bill as passed,
and he should heartily rejoice if all or any of his fears re-
specting it were not realized.

Mr. HUNIE was astonished to hear Hon. Members
speak lightly or disparagingly of the Political Unions
The Hon. Member eulogized those bodies, and contended
that they were as well informed as the members of
Brooke's, or of other Clubs in Scotland. He was sure, if
the Noble Lord desired the measure to be final, he would
consent to withdraw the county qual,fication.
Mr. SINCLAIR. said a few words in explanation.

The LORD ADVOCATE had received several com-
munications from the principal towns of Scotland in op.
position to the original cause, all of which concurred in the
expediency of instituting a compensation in Scotland simi-
lar to that which by the late Bill was enacted for England.
This oocurred in consequence of his having caused to be
widely circulated a draught of the original clause, with a
request that the opinion of the people might, to as great
an extent as possible, be afforded for his guidance. Under
such circumstances he advised the proposed alteration,
which he thought likely to meet the opinions of the majo-
rity of the people of Scotland.
Sir G. MURRAY had never viewed the clause under
discussion as of she importance of which some Hon.
Friends of his seemed disposed to create it. He did not
well understand the object of the distinction between coun-
ties and boroughs ; indeed, of the two, he thought it of
more consequence that the high qualification should be re-
quired in boroughs.
Mr. KENNEDY supported the proposed alteration.
Mr. GILLON would never allow those bodies termed
Political Unions to be censured without rising in his place
to give them the benefit of his humble support.—(Hear.)
Among those bodies he had heard eloquence and intelli-
gence emanate which would be very desirable could it he
introduced into that House.

... ...... _____
Mr. F. PALMER congratulated the people of both

England and Scotland on the progress of a question the
advocacy of whicb, in 1792, had doomed some of the most
respeetable and intelligent persons in the country to per•
petual banishment in Botany Bay.-•a punishment in which,

The LORD ADVOCATE said, that there were phy-
sical inconveniences to the plan now proposed which were
altogether insurmountable, and the Hon. Member had
taken up a ground which he could not maintain. The
Orkney and Shetland Islands had since 1669 formed but
one stewartry, and it was idle to go back to the time
when they belonged to another Crown than that of Env-
land. The Hon. Member was going to make an experi-
ment in the most distant part of the kingdom, which had
not been ventured upon in any other place ; and his pro-
position amounted to a plan of giving to these islan Is an
advant age over counties which possessed three times their
population and their wealth. If any additional Member
were to be given to the representation of Scotland, he
should say that the Shetland Isles would not have the
first, nor even the fifth, claim to receive the advantage.
Other places of greater wealth and population would natu-
rally precede them in this respect ; hut as the Hon. Mem-
ber did not propose to add a Member to the while r pre-
sentation of Scotland, his motion was an ungracious at-
tack upon some other place.
Mr. HUME folly concurred in the views of the Hon.
Member (Mr. Trail), but as he had def• ired his motion
till it was too late to carry it, he tru,,ted that he would
withdraw it, and not impede the progress of the Bill by a
useless discussion.
Mr. STEWART supported the motion.
Sir GEORGE MURRAY contended that the Orkney
and the Shetland Isles could not bp properly or fairly re-
presented, unless each cluster of islands returned one Mem-
ber. Had the proposition made by the Hon. -M..mber been
to give an additional Member to Scotland he would have
supported it; but lie could not hold that it was proper to
take away the right of representation from any borough.
He would, however, have supported the Hon. Member had
his motion been put in a different manner.
Mr. T. DUNDAS concurred in the opinion which had
been given by the Right Hon. and Gallant Member for
Perthshire.

Mr. DIXON said, the form in which the lion. Gentle.
man opposite had put his motion precluded him (Mr.
Dixon) front supporting it.
The motion was then withdrawn.
Several amendments were then put, and agreed to with..
out any remark.
Mr. PRINGLE proposed, as an amendment, that the
election for the county of Edinburgh should be held at
Dalkeith.

Mr. KENNEDY declared his intention of opposing this
amendment, and said, very many inconveniences would
result from its adoption.
It was then withdrawn.
Mr. STUART WORTLEY suggested that under the
present Bill a very meritorious and respectable class of
individuals were hardly dealt with : he meant the town
clerks in different boroughs, who, it appeared, were to
he deprived of the office which they bad hitherto exer-
cised most fairly.
The LORD ADVOCATE said it was not his inten-
tion to throw the slighest slur upon the individuals to
whom the Hon. Member alluded.
Several further amendments were then put and agreed to.
Mr. HUME opposed the qualification clause for coun-
ties. As there was none for boroughs there oiloht to be
none for counties.

Mr. SHELL wished to know why there sh._;ald he a
qualification in England or Ireland and none in Scotland.
The qualification was, in point of fact, a mere mockery.
He should like to see the oath entirely abolished.
Mr. W. WYNN said the oath was only a solemn
mockery. A qualification existed before in Scotland.
Sir C. WETHERELL said, why should such an ex-
emption be given to a Scotch Member or a Scotch voter,
and refused to an English or an Irish Member or voter ?
The Learned Lord Advocate said there was something pe-
culiar in a Scotch conscience, which revolted at oaths of
this kind. He believed if the truth were knomn, it would
be found that the Scotch Unions overruled the Noble
Lord (Althorp) and his colleagues, and that a hint from
them was the cause of this alteration in the Scotch Bill.

Lord ALTHORP said,—what his Learned Friend
(the Lord Advocate,) said was, that Scotchmtn would
scruple to take the i.ame o tth as was taken by Eng-
lish Members.—(Hear, hear.) Hitherto there was no
qualification in Scotland for boroughs, and none for coun-
ties except that merely of having a vote for the county. He
wondered, therefore, it had never occurred to Hon. Mem-
bers to press this point before.
Sir G. MURRAY said it appeared remarkable that
they should pass over the qualification for boroughs, and
retain it in counties. They were altering the system of
election altogether.
The LORD ADVOCATE explained.
Sir E. SUGDEN could not allow that they ought to
have a qualification for England and Ireland that did not
apply to Scotland.—(Hear, hear.) He thought the pre
sent time was peculiarly proper for discussions of qualifi-
cation for Scotch Members. What could be more absurd
than to say there must be a qualification for England and
Ireland, and that a person might go to Scotland, and be
elected without qualification ? He could not help think-
ing the Noble Lord had given way to the Political Unions
in Scotland.

Lord ALTHORP declared upon his honour that the
Unions bad not influenced him with regard to any of the
provisions of the Bill.
Sir R. INGLIS thought there should be a general
eastern of qualification applicable to all parts of the empire.
Sir R. PEEL said they were establishing a precedent
with respect to Scotland which must excite disapproba-
tion. They were going to abolish all qualifications for
Scotland. It was a great anomaly in the practice of le-
gislation for England and Ireland to say there should be no
qualification for Scotland. He could not help thinking
that the Political Unions had great influence in this new
mode of legislation.

Mr. KENNEDY was ready to admit that a qual;fica-
tion had existed in Scotland from early times, but that
qualification had not been founded on property.
Mr. WRANGHAM should feel it his duty to vote for
retaining the clause then rejected by the Hon. and Learned
Lord.
f6Sit: G. WARRENDER said if the question came to
a viitet. he should support the proposition of the Noble
Lord.
Strangers were then ordered to withdraw, but no divi-
sion took plate, and the qualification clause was omitted.
Several other amendments were then agreed to, and the
Bill was read a third time and p issed.
PRIVILEGE OF PARLIAMENT BILL.
Mr. BARING rose to move the Cornsnitree on thin
With reference to the qualification, he stated that at le ist
it was necessary that the representative should have a
competency and independency. He would not, however,
confine that qualification to landed property. Whatever
the opinion might be, however. as to the qualification, he
thought all would agree that a Member should not have
a negative property ; that was to say, to he encumbered
with those weights which made him, in every respect, a
dependent man. He attached considerable importance to
the fact, that the House should not he a receptacle for
such persons. His object was not to keep men of mode-
rate property out of the House. As far as this Bill was
concerned, it would only prevent men encumh is
with debts, from taking refuge fruits their creditors
in that House. That was all the principle of the Bill,
as it affected rich and poor. At present the privilege
led to sc,ndalous abuses. He had heard of a case of a
Member of Parliament drawing a bill at Bath, which was
dishonoured, and when the parties, after having obtained a
judgment against him, went to seize his property, they
found that his furniture and carriage and horses were all
seized ; and so they got nothing. He could relate a multi-
ude of such cases, but would not tire the House. Now
was it fair 650 persons should have a privilege against ar-
rest from debt? All that Parliament we: railed on to do
was to prevent any part of the Kin! 's subjects from having
such a privilege different from all others. If the House
would allow the Bill to be recommitted, and the blanks to
he filled up, he should propose that no Member be liable
to arrest on /121.500 process, but mil) on the final decision

- .

Mr. PRAED expresed the deep feeling of regret with
which he contemplated the probable loss of the Bill.
Mr. SHER. conten,led that every one of the debts
comprehended in the Bill would extend to the land. The
'cord judgment in the clause of the Bill would attach
open the land, because a judgment would follow the lind,
which a bond would not, unless it were in the hands of
the heir

Sir H. WILLOUGHBY supported the Bill.
Lord J. RUSSELL said, if this Bill were passed, it
night be made available to party purposes, and that was
his great ohj:!ction to it.

Mr. JEPHSON should support the second reading of
the Bill.

Sir R. VYVYAN should support the Bill.
Mr. LENNARD had not heard any arguments to
change his original determination, which was to give his
itipport to this Bill. Any objections to the details might
be cored in the Committee.

Sir R. PEEL did not think the fact, that the Bill did
not apply to the House of Lords, was any objection to the
Bill in its present ,tage. The House of Commons had
never resigned a privilege which the House of Lords had
not afterwards resigned. It would not have been proper
for the House of Commons to originate a Bill to take
away the personal privileges of the Members of the House
of Lords. It was highly probable that the Members of
that Howe would originate a measure of this kind with
respect to themselves ; but as the House of Commons
would have viewed with jealousy the interference of the
House of Lords with respect to their privileges, so would
the House of Lords be justified in viewing with jealousy
?be interference of the House of Commons with their pri-
vileges. He should support the Bill now, reserving to
himself, however, to consider on the third reading to
Ne-
ther the advantages and disadvantages were equally ba-
lanced, and to vote as his opinion might incline upon that
subject.

kr. BERNAL abould oppose the House going into
Committee.

Sir C. IVETHERELL supported the principle of the
Bill, and thought that in justice to it they ought to go into
Committee.—( Question, question.)
Mr. SINCLAIR supported the Bill.
Lord W. LENNOX had treat pleasure in supporting
the measure of the Hon. Member for Thetford.

Mr. C. WYNN supported the proposition for going
into Committee.

Mr. BARING replied, and the House then divided—
For the original motion 139
Against it
Majority 9
IRISH TITHES.
Lord ALTHORP, in arswer to a question from Mr.
Shiel, paid that it was the intention of the Government to
bring in a proposition to-morrow (this day) relative to
Irish Tithes.

The House then went into Committee on Mr. Baring':,
Bill pro forma ;

And Mr. GOULTIURN bron2ht up the Report, which
was ordered to be taken into further consideration on
Wednesday next.

Mr. M. O'CONNELL, on the part of the Hon. Member
for Kerry, said, that if the Government brought in a Bil
on the Irish Tithes to-morrow, that Hon. Member would'
move a Call of the House.

The other Orders of the Day were then disposed of, and
the House adjourned at Three o'clock.

GRAND DINNER TO THE ELECTORS OF

WESTMINSTER.

Yesterday, the twenty-fifth anniversary of the triumph
of Purity of Election, and also the triumph of Parliament-
ary Reform, was celebrated by a public dinner, in the
great rooni of the Crown and Anchor Tavern. About
five o'clock Sir Franciss Burdett took the chair ; he was
supported by Sir J. Cam Hobhouse, Sir Samuel Whalley,
Colonel Jones, Colonel Evans, M. P., Count Csipski,
Count Plater, the General-in-Chief Rybinski, M. Mos-
seltnan, Mr. Blackburn, Mr. Thelwall, Mr. Matthew
Hill, Mr. Harmer, Mr. De Ve.ir, Mr. Sturch. About
300 gentlemen sat down to dinner.
After the removal of the cloth, the CHAIRMAN gave—
" The people, the only true source of legitimate power,"
which was drunk with loud cheering.
The CHAIRMAN then rose to propose " the King," and
although the very mention of such a toast was quite suffi-
cient to insure their cordial concurrence, yet he could not
help observing that his present Majesty was the first Mo-
narch who ever sat upon the Throne of England, from
Alfred to the present time, who had shown a disposition
to attend to the wishes of his people, and restore their
rights.—(Cheers.)
His Majesty's health was then drunk with three times
three.—" God save the King."
Mr. HARMER. propos,d " The health of his Royal
Highness the Duke of Sussex, the consistent supporter of
the people's rights."—(Drunk with great cheering.)
Mr. FISARON proposed the next toast. He was about
to name them min who would be remembered for ever,
as the champions of the rights and liberties of the eoootry.
When be mentioned Earl Grey and the rest of his Ma-
jesty's Ministers—(Deafening cheers)—he was gratified to
perceive, from the manner in which they had received the
toast, that their feelings towards these illustrious men
corresponded with their deserts. The longer they lived
the deeper, in his opinion, would they find to be the debt
of gratitude which they owed to Earl Orey. Their
children's children would lisp his praises.—(Cheers.)
After remarking on the support given by the Reformers
to Mr. Canning's liberal policy, he said that, feeling as he
did that the support of liberal principles, whether in fo-
reign or domestic relations--whether in religion or poll.
tics—was a breaking into the enemy's camp.—(Cheers )
From the period of Sir F. Burdett's standing forward in
support of Mr. Csnnitid,'s liberal principles of foreign po-
licy, he dated the commencement of the triumph of Re-
form. He begged to propose " The health of Earl Grey
and the rest of his Majesty's Ministers."—(Applause.)
Mr. P. WALKER commenced with a few observations,
but was interrupted by the entrance of the Lord Mayor,
Mr. O'Connell, M.P., and Mr. Tennyson, M.P., who
were very warmly received, and in consequence of the
desire intimated by the company to do immediate honour
to the toast, sat down, when the toast was drunk with
every mark of is!Athusiann.
Sir S. WHALLEY proposed the next toast. In his
opinion, a great debt of gratitude was due to the electors
of Westminster. It was they who for many years had
kept alive that flame which now blazed forth with such
surprising lustre.—(Applause.) They had sent into the
House of Parliament men who were an example to the
country.—(Cheers.) They must not, however, in their
triumph for the past, forget how much remained to be ac-
complished for the future.—(Hear, hear.) They were
but on the threshold—their work was but just begun. If
they suffered themselves to be unduly influenced, if they
Bold their newly acquired birthright for a mess of pottage,

nr a rompetent tribunal; artfl with respect to the permd.
adopting the STl2Zezifinn of the Hon. Member for Kircud-
bright, he should propose that each blank be filled up with
three mouths; making it six months hefote the notice of
Coy process whatever should he effective. The Hon.
lernber concluded by moving that the order of the day for
recommitting the privileges of Parliament Bill be read.
Lord ALTHORP observed, that on its first appearance
he was very much inclined to support the principle of his
Hon. Friend's proposition ; but what had occurred in the
course of the debates upon it led him very much to doubt
whether the advantages of taking away the privileges in
question would not he counterbalanced by the disadvan-
tages. His Hon. Friend had argued the question too
much as if it were one personal to the Members of that
House. Now, all the privileges of that House were ori-
ginally and substantially the privileges of the people. That
a Member should not be annoyed by arrest was the privi-
lege of the constituents whom he represented. As far 'as
the scandal of the thing went, it was w.,.11 known that
there were seldom more than three or four persons in
Parliament to whom the provisions of the Bill would ap•
ply. Unquestionably, the worst cases were those in
which a man who has got into debt afterwards got into
the House of Commons for the purpose of eluding his
creditors. But the change that was about to take place in
the representation would go far to prevent this evil.
Under all the circumstances of the case, he should feel it
is duty to give the motion his direct negative.
Mr. HUNT maintained that it was unjust on the part
of the Honourable Member for Thetford not to extend
the measure to the other House of P:erli iment. 11. the
Noble Lord would allow the Bill to be recommitted, he
(Mr. Hunt) pledged himself to move that it should be so
extended. It was scandalous to see Members of Parlia-
ment issuing from the Fleet, or the King's /Inch prison ;
and in such cases, generally coming in for rotten boroughs.
—(No, no.) No, no ! He said yes, yes! Did not Mr.
Swsnn sit for Penryn, and Mr. Burto❑ for 13evcrley ?
Mr. HUME thought, that the measure proposed by the
Hon. Member for Thetford would narrow the choice of
the constituency, en which constituenty, under the new
circumstances, they ought to rely with confidence that it
would not return any but a proper Member. The incou-
venience arising from a man getting into the House of
Commons without property was nothing to that resulting
from a Peer in the same situation. He thought they
ought not to legislate except upon a general rule; and un-
less the Hon. Member for Thetford could prove that the
principle on which his Bill proceeded was the general rule,
or could at least show many existing cases, it appeared to
him (Mr. Hume) that the measure was partial and un-
called for.

they would only sin's( to deeper perditieb,and enslave
iheeteelves with the word " Liberty" in their mouths.
Much depended en the ensuing election, and he truettal
they would he guided in their choice, not by rank or for.
tune, hut by capability and talent.—( Hear hear.) He
then proceeded to enumerate at length the objects to which
in his opinion the attention of the new Parliament shoald
be directed. Amongst others, were a redaction of that
lavish expenditure which had hitherto prevailed—a settle
ment of the tithe question--a separation between the re-
ligions and political duties of the clergy.—(Cheers.) He
hoped no conscientious Reformer would suffer the con•
tinuence of a temptation to the dignified clergy to barrel
their votes for a journey from Chester to London, or front
London to Canterbury._(Loud cheers.) The aboli•ion
of monopoly of every kind—an attention to the interests
of the working classes—that class to whore exertions they
owed all the wealth of the country; an aboition of the
Corn Laws ; and such an alteration in the system of go-
verning Ireland as would place her on an equality with
England. These were amunget the first duties of a Re-
fermed Parliament.—(Cheers.) He concluded by pro-
posing--" The Glorious Majority of both Houses of Par-
liament, who triumphantly carried the Reform Bill." The
toast was drunk amid great cheering.
Mr. Szuiterf proposed that great and glorious advocate
of the rights and freedom of the people, " Sir Francis
Burdett."—( Loud cheers.)
Sir FRANCIS BURDETT was received with reiterated
cheer•, and spoke netr'y as follows :—I do not know that
I ever felt so much difficulty, on many accounts, as at the
present moment. I feel that I cannot claim those epithets
which the indulgence of some gentlemen present has been
pleased to couple with my name; at the same time I can-
not but feel proud that I have been, not for 25, but for
35, years, the uniform supporter of that great cause which
we are now fortunately met tog-ther no longer to advocate
but to congratulate one another on its success.—(Cheers.)
I shall not pretend to say, or to point out, what a reformed
Parliament will or wi'l not do. The topics alluded to by an
Hon. Baronet (Sir S. Whalley) who has addressed you, and
who, I trust, will Ire returned as a Member to the ensuing
Parliament—(Cheers)—are points which require the
greatest consideration and discussion, and I think ought
not to be here dwelt upon. In the next Parliament there
will be returned to that House a set of men emanating
from the public, and having no other interest than that of
the public at heart; and as these men would have no sinister
interests of their own to serve, the people of England would
necessarily rely on their discernment, and place confidence
in the judgment of those whom they themselves had soli
cited as most worthy of the great trust placed in their
hands. I cannot forget the great debt of gratitude which
we owe to William IV. for having chosen Ministers who
were both waling and aisle to carry this measure, lie would
not say without a struggle, hut without bloodshed—(Hear,
hear)—not without difficulty, yet escaping every danger.
—(Cheers.) Lord Grey bad difficulties to encounter be-
tween the different parties with whom he had to contend,
which we cannot accurately estimate, and I do consider,
that not only in integrity is Lord Grey surpassed by no
statesman, but he has displayed in the introduction of this
great question, and in its management up to the period of
its consummation, wisdom and ability, such as no man but
himself possessed or was capable of exercising.--(Cheers.)
I owe to you, to give you nay reasons for the line of
conduct which l have thought it to be my duty to adopt,
during the recent discussions It has been my leading
principle not to embarrass Ministers on any minor ques-
tion.— (Cheers.) I have forborne disturbing any part of
the proceedings of the great measure itself, even where I
felt a desire tier its modification, because I conceived it
not desirable to risk the whole for a smaller part—to en-
danger the great principles for the sake of mere minut
and, by giving a colourable majority against Ministers,
place not only the Bill but the whole country in a situa•
tion of imininent peril.—(Cheers.) Every Englishman
must wish that this measure should be such as to give
satisfaction to every part of the kingdom—to Ireland and
Scotland as well as to England.—(Cheers. ) And he felt
much pleasure that the Ministry had consented to alter
the Irish 13111 in a manner calculated to give great satis-
faction to the people of Ireland.—(Much applause.) He
was anxious to conciliate all parties, to attend to all inte-
rests; and though individuals, perhaps himself, might
have some ground of complaint, yet, on the whole, he
must pronounce it to he one of the noblest attempts ever
made on the part of an enlightened Government to satisfy
the just and rational expectations of a united people.—
(Loud cheers.) Many unreasonable expectations had
doubtless been formed by some, as to the re-
sult of the Reform Bill, and many more attributed
to the people by their enemies. This was also the case with
the Catholic Bill ; and then those Gentlemen would turn
round and say, " didn't I tell you that the Bill would not
do this, that, and the other ; didn't I tell you that it would
not place a quartern loaf upon your table, or fill your pot
with potatoes ?" Why, who ever expected that it would ?
It is right the people should distinctly understand that the
sole benefit of the Bill be this--that every measure done i❑
Parliament will receive the sanction of intelligent men,
acted upon in common with the public, by public interests
alone.—(Applause.) He the❑ eulogized the late Jeremy
Bentham, Major Cartwright, and John Horne Tooke—
men who were a loss not only to this country but to the
universal world. He deeply lamented the unfortunate
situation of Poland ; it was difficult to speak on the sub-
ject from feelings which almost deprived him of the
power of expression. He denounced, in energetic language,
the odious tyranny and cruelties of Russia, and expressed
the greatest admiration of the magnanimity and devoted
courage which enabled a handful of men, comparatively
speaking, so long to resist the combined Powers of Russia,
Austria, and Prussia---(Loud cheats.) And they would
still have maintained the independence of their country,
had it not been for the shameful abandonment, if not
treachery, of the other European Powers.—(Hear,
hear, hear.) He trusted the time would shortly ar-
rive, whe❑ England might be enabled to do something
more than deplore the fate of one of the noblest nations in
the world.—(Continued cheers.) It only remains for
me to congratulate you on our ultimate triumph ;
and in so doing, my feelings of joy are not altogether
unalloyed with regret, with some kind of reluctance,
at an event which renders this the last occasion that we
shall meet to celebrate a struggle, the great end of which
is now accomplished. In taking my leave, I have only to
soy, for the present, let us act with discretion and modera-
tion—let us give fair play to the men in whom we really
have confidence; and be assured, that unless we do so, we
shall still run a great risk of depriving ourselves of gather-
ing the fruits which at present promise so fairly. Be as-
sured, that unless we give his Majesty's Ministers our
most decided support, we shall not prevent their being
plucked by the faction, over which we have this day tri•
umphed.—(Cheers.)

Count PLATER then rose and addressed the company in
French. Under all the unhappy circumstances that sur-
rounded Poland, it was a matter of consolation to him to
find that England sympathised with that country, which
had been deprived of its nationality, and almost even of
its name—which had been overthrown and trampled under
the feet of a tyrant—who, with despotic sway, ruled over
a people that pretended to liberty, but was, in fact, in love
with oppression.--(Cheers.) But desperate as the pre-
sent conslition of Deland was, he could not help (fondly,
perhaps) indulging in the hopes of a brilliant futurity.—
(Applause.) He could not help hoping that it might ul.
timatcly participate in that triumph which had been
achieved in so glorious a manner by the people of this
country ; and he said this the rather, because be knew that
it was felt, by liberal minded m.n, that the loss of the
freedom of Poland, was not only a loss to that country,
hut also to France, Germany, Great Britain, and in-
deed Europe in general.—(Long continued applause.)
Neither, he trusted, would it ever be forgotten that the
happiness of 14 millions of Poles—wives and sisters—fa-
thers and brothers—had been destroyed in that struggle,
which had been prompted by liberty, and by liberty alone.
--(Cheers.) But it was with pleasure that he turned
from so painful a subject to that which was the cause of
the present assembling. Honour to the people of Great
Britain ! Honour to the people who had obtained their
victory amid a thousand obstacles, without the shedding
of one single drop of brood ! Honour to the people who
had proved what vigour and energy were able to di,
against tyranny and oppression.—(Cheers.)
Mr. DE YEAR proposed the health of Sir J. C. Hob-
house, which was drunk with considerable applause.
Sir J. C. HOBIIOUSE, on rising, was received with
loud cheers. He spoke neirly as follows :--Gentlemen,
it bis very frequently been my good fortune to present
myself to your notice, and to give you the sincere tribute
of my grateful thanks for your kind reception of me ; but
I now feel that I am, al it were, un a fresh trial before
you. Gentlemen, when I accepted office, I did not con-
ceal either from you or myself that I was making a great
sacrifice ; though that is an expression which I should
think it wrong to use, if I had not an opportunity of ex-
plaining it. It is no sacrifice to serve a gracious and con-
stitutional King—that, on the contrary, is an honour;
it is no sacrifice to associate oneself with those whom
I be;ieve to be the best, the most upright, and
the moat distinguished men who ever presumed to
hold the reins of a great empire.—(Loud cheering.)
All this is more than an honour ; it holds out a lure Inc
what, I trust, I may call an honest ambition—to connect
the name of one who owes everything to you, with those
of an Administration, which I will not attempt to de.
scribe, as I cannot hope to improve the description already
given to you by my lion. Colleague. I may, however,

remark, that they are men who have had the singular
good bsrtune to carry, in a maturer stage of existence, t'
effect of all those principles for which they sacrificed them-
.selves in early life.—(Cheers.) Gentlemen, I had tin
imbition (or, if it is a weakness, I even confess this weak
ness) to wish that the name of your representive should
he connected with that Administration, which by the
great efforts of the people, and by the sanction and assist-
ance of the King, has been enabled to consummate this
great and glorious measure—(Loud cheering)—and this it
was which induced me to stand in the position which I
now have the honour to occupy. But though all this was
no sacrifice, still there was a sacrifice which I think every
lsonourable mini will be able to feel and anPrecisites In
the first place, there was some sacrifice of private comfort;
but above all, there was a sacrifice, after having been
honoured with your confidence, in placing myself in a
position in which it was possible that I might be sus.
pected. I trust, however, that the fair, and candid,
and liberal treatment which the people of England
have afforded to the Government will not be refused
to me. When I first accepted office, I told you that 1
did so to assist in carrying the measure of Parliament's)
Reform.—(Loud cheers.) That measure is now carried,
as far as this portion of the empire is concerned ; and
after what has already been said upon this part of the sll,
jest, I will add nothing to it. Ido not say that this is a
final measure, for what is final among men ? But Ido
say, that I most firmly believe that this Bill will lay the
foundation of the true honour and real happiness of the
peop'e of England.—(Applause.) I trust that the people
of England will judge us fairly. I trust that they wiil not
expect us to raise the scaffold and to rear the pile at one
and the same time ; I trust that they will, for the present,
rather content themselves with recollecting what we have
done, than be looking to vain and flimsy promises of what
may be done hereafter. My opinion is certainly in ac-
cordance wish that of my Hon. Colleague, that nothing
can be so shameless as to charge the Reformers with hold.
isg out exp.ctations of impossible benefits from any mea-
sure whatever. The Reformers have said nothing but
this—as long as the present system lasts, we can have no
good government ; we do not tell you what will he the re-
milt of a fair system of representation further than this—
th it what you pretend to do in a sham manner, we will
try to accomiallithsin a real manner.—(Cheers.) If there
is any goad in having a fair representation of the people,
then I cannot help thinking you will reap Its fruit of that
good seed which you have sown ; and be aisle to say, that
it is to the electors of Westminster (I say not this in adu-
lation) to your perseverance, firmness, and candour, that
the nation owes the accomplishment of this great triumph.
Mr. STURGEON proposed " The health of the Lord
Mayor, and the Refot risers of London," which was drunk
wi h loud cheers.
The LORD MAYOR said, as the meeting had been so good
as to couple his name with the reformers of London, he
begged, on their behalf (and he knew that he was giving
words to their sentiments), to express the gratification
they felt in the triumph of that cause which the electors
of Westminster had that day met to eelebrate—(Chrers)—
and he would further state that there was no public act of
the electors of Westminster which the reformers of Lon-
don would not he happy to unite in supporting to the best
of their ability. They felt that those exertions had been
the means of bringing a change, by which the happiness
and prosperity of the country would be largely promoted.
Is was in these sentiments that he had lived ; i'a these
sentiasents he hoped he should die.--(Cheering.)
Colonel EVANS, M.P.—The Chairman had alluded to
the unfortunate but illustrious nation of Poland ; and the
meeting had had the pleasure of hearing a speech from
one of that nation. He (Colonel Evans), however, begged
to say, that he could not altogether agree in the opinion
expressed by the Hon. Baronet, that the nationality of Po-
land was at an end ; for he could not believe that a
people who bad behaved with such courage and magna-
nimity, hail sunk never again to rise; on the contrary, he
thought that the day would come when Great Britain and
France would no longer suffer tyranny to triumph over
liberty ; though he must sly, that he thought that the
present Parliament had not done its duty in not taking an
opportunity of at least expressing its sentiments in favour
of the cause of Poland.—(Applause.) He begged lease to
propose to the meeting " The healths of Mr. O'Connell
and the Reformers of Ireland."—(Great applause.)
Mr. O'CONNELL was received with enthusiastic cheers.
He said, I am now standing amid a disenthralled and free
people—a people, too, who owe their liberty to no foreign
aid—to no auxiliary from any part of the globe, but to the
sole exertions of the population of England, Scotland,
and Ireland.—(Cheers.) We certainly have had at our
side many of the nobility and gentry of the empire ; but
after all, it is the people who have done this.—(Cheers.)
And who deserves credit fist, and beyond all, in this
struggle? The electors of Westminster ; for when the
spark of liberty was trampled down even in the very ashes_
when there emanated therefrom but little light, and no
heat—who watched our sacred fire and kept it together
till it kindled into a mighty blaze to illumine the whole
world ?—(Cheers.) The electors of 'Westminster ! I
say this in no flattery. Electors of Westminster, it was
you ! How often did the base and sordid press ot those
days treat you with scorn and indignity ? How often
were you taunted, and singled out for calumny and abuse?
How often were fearful mothers obliged to warn their
sons and their husbands, and implore them not to join
in this sacred duty, lest they should become the object of
scorn—aye, and of persecution, too, by the dishonest
aristocracy taking from them their very bread of life?
But in spite of all those years of persecution, still
you went onward ; and I therefore say, that you deserve
this day of triumph ; for much of its glory belongs to you.
—(Cheers.) You have added to this toast a mention of
the Reformers of Ireland ; and the humblest of them—
myself—tries to return you the most heartfelt thanks in
their 'lame, and to assure you that the Reformers ot I re•
land are deserving of your countenance and favour.—
(Cheers.) What have they done ? 1 here were but 100
Irish Members ; but of there 25 are returned from rotten
boroughs ; so that you must allow us discount for these,
for they have no more to do with Ireland than with Kamta-
chatka.—(A laugh.) I have, therefore, only to account
to you for 75 Member; and of those 75 Members we re-
turn 69 Reformers.—(Cheers)-69 men who were con_
tent to leave their homes, their families, and their busi-
ness—not for a week or a month—hut I may now say for
nearly two years. Nor did our labours end there. We
have listened with exemplary forbearance to the calcula-
tions and miscalculations and chicanery of Croker—
(Laughter and cheers)—we have listened to the quib-
bles and quiblets of Sugden—(Laughter and cheers re-
newed)—and we have been bothered till botheration
was itself bothered by Wetherell.—(Great cheering and
laughter.) All this we have heard not only in
pstience, but, so help me Heaven, we have heard it in
silence, which was far worse.—(Laughter.) The mon-
strous propositions that these argufiers thought fit to lay
down we have left unanswered ; though, I protest, four
or five times I thought I should have died of a suppres-
sion of speech.—(Laughter and applause.) During all
this contest we faithfully stood by you; and here, in the
name of my country, I thank you for standing by us.—
(Hear, hear.) And here I cannot help referring to the
Ministry for a minute or two. Do not be alarmed ; I
intend not to blame them, for I have not come here to
enter into this subject. All I shall say is, that one was'
or another a bad Bill has been given to Ireland.—(Hear,
hear.) Ido not blame them; but I thank the people of
England. Their voice is again being heard on this sub-
ject—the table of the House of Commons again groans
under their petitions ; and I have the extreme pleasure to
inform you, that hut for what took place the night before
last, the Lord Mayor of London was prepared to call a
meeting on the subject in the city.—(Cheers. ) But the
real fact is, that the interests of the people of both coun-
tries are identical in this case—(Loud cheers)—for of what
value will it be to you to choose your own representatives
if Ireland, under the pretence of a Reform Bill, is to be
made one large rotten borough? Besides, to say nothing
of your general sympthy for that country, can anything

PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE.

(From the Times.)

PARIS, TUESDAY, JUNE 26, FOUR O'CLOCK, P.M.
The expected modifications in the Ministry have been
the chief subject of conversation in the Salons and at the
Bourse fur the last three days, but up to the present time
it is not known whether the Cabinet discussions thereon
have led to any definitive arrangement. It is genera'ly
believed, however, that Prince Talleyrand has persisted in
declining the offer of the Presidency of the Council, and
that he wishes to assist the Government with his advice,
without taking upon him the duties and responsibility of
any office in the Administration. It is also believed that
M. Dupin, in consequence of M. de Talleyrand's refusal of
the Presidency, is unwilling to enter the Cabinet unless
the chief office be offered to him. To M. Dupin's appoint-
ment to the Presidency, however, Marshal Soult is said to
entertain such strong objections, that if it take place the
Marshal will resign, and General Guilleminot will be his
successor. In this case, General Sebistiani (whose health
has greatly improved of late) would, it is supposed, with-
draw, as he is still on such terms with General Guille-
nainot, after the accusations of duplicity anti treachery
publicly brought against him by the ex-ambassador in re-
ference to some diplomatic transactions at Constantinople,
as to make it hardly possible that the two Generals should
have seats in the same Cabinet. M. Dupin spent the
whole of Sunday with the King at St. Cloud, and from
thence proceeded to his country house, a few leagues dis-
tant from Paris, where he intends remaining some days.
31. de Talleyrand also repaired to St. Cloud at one o'clock
on the same day, and remained in consultation with the
King and M. Dupin until four.
It is evident, from all that has transpired, that the re-
construction of the Cabinet is still found to be no easy
matter : and it would not be surprising if the difficulties
encountered were to lead to a resolution to leave things as
they are until a better opportunity presents itself of placing
them on a desirable footing.
Reports of an intention to dissolve the Chamber of De-

puties as soon as the siege is raised, and to make a new
batch of peers, selected among the partisans of the juste
milieu, have also been in circulation but they have pro•
duced no impression on the public, as it is thought that,
until some decision is formed in regard to the state of the
Minis•ry, the other two measures must remain at least sus-
pended.

The question of proposing a new loan is still under the
con‘ideration of Ministers. The necessity of the measure
is admitted on .dl hands, as the deficits, which have been
accumulating for the last three years, amount by this time
to about 500,000,000 francs ; and the present year's con-
tributions are expected to fall short of the previous year's
amount, in consequence of the political disturbances
which have occurred in so many parts of the
country. Ministers, however, were desirous of hav-
ing recourse to a partial relief, by proposing a
loan of only 150,000,000 of stock ; but before
they made up their minds, they requited the opinion of
the most influential capitalists; and a meeting of hankers
and others has, therefore, taken place at M. Rothschild's.
M. Thiers was present on behalf of the Government.
After a good deal of discussion, in which M. Rothschild
made a very flourishing picture of the financial resources
of Fr ,nce, it was agreed, that the best course would be

to propose such a loan as would cover the whole amount
of the accumulated deficits, but it was resolved that the
point was one which could only be settled by the wisdom
of Ministers. As the publicity given to the proceedings at
this meeting has produced no depression on the funds, it

is supposed that Ministers will be induced to avail them•
selves of the favourable state of public credit which this
iisplies, to propose a loan to the full amount of the defi-
cient sum.

Orders were yesterday transmitted to Brest, by tele-
graph, to the effect that a squadron, composed of two
ships of the line, and some frigates, should immediately
proceed to the mouth of the Sheldt. This, with the
corresponding preparations made on your side of the Chan-
nel, would indicate that a serious determination has been
taken to compel the King of Holland to comply with the
resolution of the Conference. But the King of Holland,
it is well knoii n here, is as firmly resolved as ever not to
do all that is required of him. He makes sure that nei-
ther Russia and Prussia will suffer any hostile proceedings
to be adopted against him, and as to the threats of any
attack by sea, they will give him no uneasiness, as lie
thinks that both nature and art have placed him in an
adequate state of defence in that quarter.
General Lafayette, who has been living in seclusion in
his countr) seat since the breaking out of the late riots, of
which he witnessed the commencement, has lately pro-
tested against a story got up by some Ministerial paper
of his having thrown a crown of immortelles on a cap of
liberty, placed on the coffin of General Lamarque, whilst
the orations were being pronounced on the body. This
veteran friend of liberty has availed himself of the oppor-
tunity to raise his voice against the unnecess try and un-
called-for means of repression pursued by the Govern-
ment, and to protest against the unwarrantable suspension
of the charter. lie acknowledges that the 150,000 citi-
zens who attended the funeral of General Lamarque did so
with the view of evincing their disapprobation of the

The " adhesions" to the Compte rendu still continue.
Up to the present moment they amount to 135.
Affairs in the west continue to 'atomise a restoration of
tranquillity in that quarter; but some persons say that
this is the consequence of a momentary advantage which
the season gives to the Government troops, and that the
insurrection will break out again on the approach of win-
ter. The Duchess de Berri it still semewnere in the Boc-
cage. It would be a fortunate thing for those who are
condemned by the Court-martial if she were taken by the
National Guards, as the King would not suffer her life to
be sacrificed, and therefore he would have to extend the
Royal clemency to all who have been convicted of rebellion.
The Duchess runs no risk of falling into the bands of the
Government troops or police agents. The National Guards
are the only enemies she bas to fear. Z.
P.S. The news has been received this afternoon, that
Don Pedio's expedition sailed for Portugal on the 9th

of finances.

The Constitutionnel says—" We have it in our pow( r

to state that M. Dupin, in all his conversations with his
political friends, and with several Ministers, pnsitively at,
nounced his wish for the immediate cessation of martia
law. He spent yesterday at St. Cloud, and no doubt ex
pressed the same opinion to his Majesty."

Extract of a lettrr of the Bth instant, from Cl(liz

" Yesterday, the English schooner Isabella, arrived here
from the island of Terceira, having left Angra on the
Ist. The Captain declares that at the moment of his
departure the army of Don Pedro, amounting to 15,000
men, was embarked on board 80 transports and ships of
war, and that they only waited for Don Pelro himself to
come on board. They were expect-d to sail that night
or the next day (the 2d-) The Captain also states that
there are several French ships of war in the fleet. As
soon as this intelligence was known, General Mama°, the
Governor of Cadiz, and the Admiral in command of the
Isle of Leon, sent of expresses to Madrid."
A new Protocol is said to have been lately signed by
the London etnference, composed of the three Powers,
Protestors of Greece. This Prot, col relates to the affairs
of that country, and contains the following clauses:-
1. Prince Otbo, appointed King of Greece, shall proceed
to his States escorted by 3,000 Bavarian troops, who aro
to remain in the country. 2. The three Powers which
hare signed the Protocol will secure to him a lora of 20
millions of francs. 3. If Prince Oda°, King of Greece,
should die without issue, the Crown shall not pass to the
reigning family of Bavaria, but a new King shall be chosen
by the three Powers.
The Augsburg Gazelle of the 22d instant his the fol-
lowing, dated Vienna, June 17:—" According to ac-
counts from Constantinople of the 25th ult., the Grand
Admiral Halil Pacha left that port on the 15th, on board
a ship of the line, and sailed fur the Dardanelles, to take
the command of the Turkish fleet collected there. Dur-
ing his absence the works of the arsenal are to be under the
direction of the Seraskier Chosrem, and are to be carried
on with great activity. A letter from Semlin of the 11th
inst. states the arrival, on the preceding day, of two
Tartars at Belgrade, announcing to the Pacha two victories
gained by the Turkish troops, on the 29th and 30th of
May, over the Bosnian rebels near Sherashan, and on the
plain of Sarajewo. In consequence of these victories, the
said capital of Bosnia was evacuated on the same day by
the Bosnians, and occupied by the Turks. By the fall of
this town, the insurrection may be considered at an end.
The last accounts from Ancona state, that after the de-
parture of the Pro-delegate Count Fiorenzi, who left An-
cona on the 9th, not one Papal functionary was left, yet
the town enjoyed perfect tranquillity. Ancona, however,
was in a state of blockade, as no citizen could go more
than a league from the town without being liable to be
arrested and conveyed to Osimo. It was reported that, at
Corinaldo, a small town near Sinigaglia, the Governor and
Burgomaster had been assassinated. We learn from Rome
that the Russian Ambassador to the Papal Court, Prince
Gagarin, is appointed to supersede Prince Poteroki, the
Russian representative in Bavaria, who will go to the
Hague. The Russian Minister at the Hague, Count Gou-
rieff, will be Minister of Russia at Rome.
P.S. By accounts just received from Trieste, we learn
that the Archduchess Maria Louisa of Purina has been
attacked by an intermittent fever, in consequence of which
her journey to Vienna is postponed."
The Berlin State Gazette of the 20th instant quotes
the Prussian Four per Cents. on the preceding day, 931;
ditto Five per Cents. (1822), English Loan, 1011.
At Munich, on the 16th instant, a daughter of Lord
Erskine, the English Ambassador at the Court of Bavaria,
was married to the Count de Baumgarten.
Accounts from Geneva state that the sanatory regula-
tions, as to travellers arriving from France, have been
much modified. All persons coining from beyond the
Rhone, or who have resided six days on the Swiss side of
it, as Grenoble, are no longer required to perform quaran-
tine, and may proceed to Aix or St. Gervais, or visit
Chamouny or Mont Blanc, and proceed into Savoy with-
out impediment. They must, however, furnish them-
selves with the necessary certificates.
A letter from Lugano of the llth instant states, that
the Pope's Nuncio has concluded a capitulation with
General Courten for a second Foreign Legion. The con-
tracting pirties have applied to the authorities of Valais

for permission to raise four companies in that canton. A
detachment of 60 recruits, it is said, has set out from
Strarstidt, a village in Unterwalden, to pass Mount St.
Gothard, and enter the new corps. It is added that
Lucerne also will furnish a contingent.
Extract of a letter of the 13th instant from Venice :

" On the 7th instant two rescripts were published here.
One ordains the levy of 200 men for the navy within the
precincts of Venice and Chioggio ; the other a levy of
5,150 men within the Lombardo-Venetian kingdom. The
first levy commenced yesterchy ; the second has been in
progress since the 9th instant."

The first Court-martial of Nantes commenced its pro-
ceedings on the 23d instant, with the trial of M. Kersa-
biec, lien., his servant Papin and M. Gui'lore, who were
arrested on the 4th by a detachment under the command
of General Dertnoncourt. The Court, after the exami-
nation of upwards of twenty witnesses, unanimously found
M. Kersabiec guilty of an attempt to destroy or change
the Government,—acquitted him of unlawful enlistment,
by a majority of four against three,—guilty of exciting
civil war, by a majority of six against one,—not guilty of
resisting the armed force,—not guilty of having assumed
the command of armed bands, by a majority of four
against three, and lastly, that there were extenuating cir-
cumstances in his case; upon which he was sentenced to
imprisonment for life, which imports a civil death. Papin
was acquitted. The sentenece upon M. Guillor4 was de-
ferred until the Court had made some further inquiries.
The Gazette des Ecoles says—" According to the new
instructions relative to the re-organization of the. Polytech-
nic School, the introduction of journals will be strictly
forbidden. Any pupil in whose hands a journal may be
found is to be expelled.
The pupils of the military school at St. Cyr, who were
sent home in consequence of the late disturbance in that
establishment, have been condemned by the Minister of
War to 15 days' imprisonment at the Abbaye, after which
they will be allowed to return to the school.—Courrier

SECOND COURT MARTIAL OF PARIS.
SITTING OF JUNE 26.
PRESIDENT, GENERAL DEROCHERET.

Joseph Francois Leger, porter and labourer at the
Halle Andquays, aged 33, was accused of having fired on
the troops of the line and National Guards, and killed and
wounded several of them, and also of having assisted in
disarming several posts. After the usual formalities, and
the recapitulation of the previous examinations and depo-
sitions, the prisoner was introduced. He was dressed in
the ordinary costume of a labourer. He appeared per-
fectly collected, and replied to the questions put to him in
a firm and unhesitating manner. On the accusation being
stated to him, he declared, that during the whole of
the sth of June, he was engaged with his ordi-
nary work; that he was not in possession of any arms
whatever ; that he did not take any part in the dis-
turbances of that and the succeeding day; that the domi-
ciliary visits made in his lodgings, had proved that he had
neither arms nor ammunition of any kind in his house ;
and that the accusation against him arose wholly from the
jealousy of his fellow-workmen at his getting more work
than they did, and the vengeance of a man named Helon,
with whose wife he (prisoner) cohabited.

After receiving the evidence of several witnesses, the
four following questions were submitted to the Court :
Ist, Is the prisoner guilty of an attempt to overthrow the
Government?-2d, Is he guilty of an attempt to excite
civil war ?-3d, Is he guilty of having, on the :ith of

After half an hour's secret deliberation the Council re-
turned into the Court, and returned an unanimous verdict
of Not Guilty on the first and third questions; not guilty
on the second question by a majority of five to two, and
an unanimous verdict of Guilty on the 4th question. The
Council also decided by the minorite de faveur, that there
were extenuating circumstances in the cage, but that tl e
provisions in cases of recidive or second offence were l
pliceble, notwithstanding the difference between the nature'l-
of the two Courts by which the two sentences were Pc -
nout.ced. The prisoner was therefore condemned to 20
years' hard labour and costs.

The next case was that of Jean Baptiste Cboiseau, an
engraver, aged 50, accused of attempting to excite civil

var, uttering seditious cries, and distributing arms and
tn., unition.

It appeared that the search made in the prisoner's house
had produced only a theatrical dress-sword, which was laid
an the table.
The prisoner was respectably dressed.
The Court acquitted the prisoner.

TRAITOROUS ASSAULT ON HIS MA-

JESTY.

The final examination of _Dennis Collins, for an assault
upon his Majesty at Ascot-heath Races, took place yes-
terday in Reading. As early as twelve o'clock yesterday
here was a numerous attendance of County Magistrates
at the gaol ; among whom we noticed George Henry
Elliott, Esq., John Jesse Bulkeley, Esq., Sir Morris Xi•
menes, Coffin Forbes, R.N., Captain Gartt, R.N., Henry
Clive, Esq. M.P., N. P. Brivhtash, Esq., Dr. Mitford,
T. H. A. Earle, Esq., Sir John Sewell, and Swabey,
E•q

It was agreed that George H. Elliott, Esq. and Sir
Morris Ximenes should be the acting Magistrates, and
directions were given for bringing in the prisoner, who
(it was announced) stood charged with the crime of High
Treason, under the 36th of Geo. 111.
The prisoner, on entering the room, was dressed in a
sailor's jacket, and the same old ragged trousers in which
he was attired when he was apprehended. The gaol al•
lowance of bread and water, to which he had been con.
fined, had made a visible alteration in his appearance. He
was paler than at his former examination, and the cleanli-
ness of his person presented him in a more favourable
aspect. His counten ince is rather prepossessing than
otherwise His eyes are bright and expressive ; his nose
aquiline, and the general cast of his features intellectual.
He stood during the examination, and behaved respect-
fully, but with great firmness. The preliminary forms
having been gone through, the witnesses were called and
repeated the evidence which has already appeared in
The Sun.
Mr. ELLIOTT—CoIIins, now is the time for you to offer
whatever you have to say in your defence, but it is neces-
sary that I should first caution you, that you need not say
anything to inculpate yourself. Recollect what you are
about, and that what you say may be made use of against
you.

Prisoner-4 own I committed a great fault in throwing
a stone at his Alajesty.

Mr. ELLIOTTI-Alind that, we are taking down what
you say.

Prisoner--I was in Greenwich Hospital the 16th of
December ; I was there IS months an in-pensioner. The
wardkeeper and I had some dispute about sweeping the
room. I said that once a day was enough.
A MAGISTRATE.—That is not the point.
Prisoner (very firmly)—You must listen to me, if you
please, as I have been asked what I have to say, and I
must tell it in my own way. Well, a complaint wse
made against me, and I was put under arrest by Sir Rd.
Keats, and then I was expelled for life. I petitioned the
Lords Commissioners and his Majesty to he restored to the
pension I had when I went in. I was allowed that pen-
sion by an Act of Parliament passed i❑ the reign of Geo.
IV. by which, whatever pension you had when you
went into the Hospital, you were to have when you
went out, unless you committed a felony, or struck
an officer, and I did nothing of the kind.—
Well, on the 19th of last April I petitioned his Majesty to
be restored to my pension again, and he answered the pe-
tition by sending it to the Lords of the
Barrow, the Secretary. sent a message to me to the
public-house. The answer the King sent to the Admi-
ralty, Barrow sent me to the Admiral Duncan public-
house, close to the dead wall of the Admiralty ; and the
answer was that his Majesty would do nothing for me.—
The answer was partly in writing and partly in print. I
was in distress very much. I never broke my fast for
three days. lam very sorry for what I have done. I
would never think of the like if I was not distressed. His
Majesty never did me an injury, and I am sorry that I
threw a stone or any thing else at his Majesty, and I am
exceedingly sorry for it. I was for three days without
j food to break my fast since the month came in, and this
if the 27th.—Nothing else. When I went to Admiral
Rowley's house, the other day, and asked him for a bit of
victuals, he kicked me. lam very sorry. I must suffer
the law, but I am very sorry fur what I have done.—
They had no right to take my pension from me. Sir
Richard Keats went against the law of the country, and I
am sorry that I did the same. I suffer from arbitrary
power, and I am not the only man in the country who
suffers from arbitrary power.
The above statement, which is given exactly as the pri-
soner delivered it, was spoken with great firmness and de-
cision, and without hesitation or emotion. Collins ap-
peared to treat his situation from beginning to end with
indifference, and not to be in the least daunted by the
array of so many Magistrates, the examination of the
Crown solicitor, or the formal depositions of the witnesses
against him. His manner was unconcerned, but without
the affectation of swagger or hardihood, like that of a
man questioned about some trivial offence, the consequence
of which he was alarmed at. He spoke with a strong
Irish accent, but his tone was that of a hearty bluff Bri-
tish sailor, who had nothing to fear, and was not afraid
to speak the truth.

The examination concluded at half-past four o'clock,
and the prisoner was committed for trial on the charge of
high treason, and the witnesses bound over to prosecute,
in a penalty of 401. each, at the next Assizes for Berk-
shire, which will take place on July 16, at Abingdon.
It is a singular fact, that Captain Smith, who has but
recently been nude a Post Captain from his own merit,
was the Midshipman who steered the Undaunted, with
Buonapaite on board, on his way to Elba.
The examination seemed to excite very little interest in
the town.

SIR WALTER SCOTT.—The answer to in-
quiries this morning, at the hotel in Jermyn-street, was,
that Sir WALTER had passed a good night, and that he
bad improved since yesterday. His appetite is better, and
he takes more nourishment. He has been so collected since
yesterday morning as to recognise his different attendants.

Letters frorn Leghoriri announce that intelli-
gence had just been received there of the blockade of the
poi t of Alexandria by the Ottoman squadron.

At a certain club, of which several Bishops
and other Church Dignitaries are members, it is no un-
common thing (says a correspondent) for Clergymen to be
seen playing cards till four or five O'clock on a Sunday
morning.
Yesterday a ballot was taken at the East India
House, for the election of a Director in the room of
CHARLES ELTON PRESCOTT, Esq., deceased. At six
o'clock the glasses were closed and delivered to the scru-
tineers, who reported the election to have fallen on
RICHARD JENKINS, Esq.
The return of the fine weather has set all
hands to work on the hay crops, which are likely, with
very little exception, to be every where abundant and good.
DEVIZES.—Mr. MONTAGUE GORE, ne-
phew of Colonel GoRE LANGTON, for so many years the
independent and liberal representative of the county of So-
merset, has, we understand, had a most successful canvass
at Devizes.
