the evils of anarchy and violence so destructive to the people
at large.
Mr. HARLE, in seconding the third resolution, said, the
majority of the Nobles of England were at once so weak, so
vain, and so wild, as to believe that the mere words or titles,
duke and marquis, earl and viscount, have a potency and
charm which may venture to goad an empire to the verge of
madness, convulse its commerce, and shake, as with a tempest,
the fabric of its government, however glorious, however grand.
No plan is formed but the Peers will mar it. No hopes can
bloom but the Lords will blast them. No blessing is conceived,
but they strangle it in the birth.—( Applause.) This handful
of legislators, many of them contemptible in talent, and most
of them contemptible in fortune, have dared to brave the
darkest indignation of millions of their countrymen. Here
then is the tournament of opinion. Here is the issue to be
tried. The Lords have thrown down the gauntlet to the
pebple, it has been accepted, and " may heaven defend
the right." The days of the hereditary peerage are
numbered. The planets of the people are lords of the ascen-
dant. The Lower House of Parliament, responsible to the
people, formed by the people, must stretch forth the arm of its
might in the hour of the people's need.
The adoption of the petition was then put from the chair,
and carried unanimously.
Mr. M. T. GREENHOW proposed the next resolution.
Mr. W. B. PusSIION seconded the resolution, which was
carried unanimously.
Mr. POTTER proposed three cheers for the Ministry, which
was instantly complied with ; and, after some further cheer-
ing, the meeting, which was very numerous, broke up.

STOCKPORT.
The Mayor of this town having refused to call a public
meeting upon the present state of the Municipal Corporation
Bill, a very large meeting of the inhabitants was held on Mon-
day in the yard of the Castle Inn. Ralph Orrell, Esq., in
the Chair.

A petition to the House of Commons was agreed to, ex-
pressing regret that the Bill, as passed by the Commons, had
been mutilated by the "majority of an Assembly, who repre-
sent themselves only, and whose principal aim and effort ap-
pear to be to over-rule at once the Monarch and the people of
these realms." The petitioners pledge themselves to support
his Majesty's Ministry and the House of Commons in their
patriotic attempts to procure good local government, and pray
the rejection of any measure upon which mock amendments
have been foisted.

The petition, signed by 4,500 inhabitants of the town, with
the calling of each petitioner added to his name, was sent off
on Wednesday night, and will be presented this evening by
Henry Marsland, Esq. It is impossible to describe the general
feeling of the people of the manufacturing districts.

nuous opposition; and then, should it chance to pass the
House, which is most likely, for the Tories will of course
vote for any measure which he votes against, it will,
for a precisely similar reason, receive . the unqualified
sanction of the House of Lords. - When Irish pig-
drivers wish to drive a pig forward, they invariably pull
him by the tail backward, well knowing, that his inhe-
rent spirit of contradiction will urge him on in the
right direction ; and in a like perverse spirit must Mr.
O'CONNELL act towards every. useful Irish measure
that he desires to have passed by the Upper House.
He must give it a lug backward—that is to say, op-
pose its progress with all his might ; and then he may
take for granted that their Lordships, from a swinish
spirit of contradiction, will urge it forward with a zeal
exactly proportioned to his apparent hostility.

In the House of Commons last night, Lord
JOHN RUSSELL brought up the Report of the Se-
lect Committee appointed to draw up a statement of
.the reasons; to be assigned by the Commons in a con-
ference with the Lords, why they had not agreed to
some of their Lordships' amendments.' A message
was then conveyed to the Lords by Lord JOHN, at-
tended by about 200 Members, intimating that the
Commons desired a Conference on the Bill. The No-
ble Lord soon after appeared at the bar again, and
with a solemnity suited to the occasion, informed the
House that the Lords had agreed to the Conference,
and had fixed upon the Committee Room No. 5, as
the scene of this ridiculous piece of mummery. The
Conference Committee then proceeded to the appointed
place, headed by Lord JOHN, who was carrying
the Bill. After the lapse of half an hour or so,
the Noble Lord again appeared at the bar and said
that the Conference was over, and that the Committee
had left the Bill with the managers appointed by the
Lords, after delivering to them the " reasons" drawn
up by the Commons.
What else took place during this memorable "pala-
ver" we are not told ; but our readers may perhaps have
some curiosity to know 'the kind of ceremonial observed
on such occasions: It is this :—the representatives of
the people, when they hold a " Conference" with the
co-ordinate branch of the Legislature, stand bare-
headed in the presence of their Lordly co-ordinates,
who sit with their HATS ON all the time, while they
hardly condescend to listen to the humble petitioners
before them. This is the way the " Upper" and
" Lower" Houses settle their differences !
The House of Commons has now concluded its la-
bours on the Corporation Bill. During the last few
days it has bolted a greater quantity of humble pie
than any House that ever existed, or than it, we should
think, will be able thoroughly to digest. What kind
of physic honourable members ought to take by way
of remedy, it is not easy to say ; their constituents
must prescribe for them. An emetic is out of the
question—it is too late for that. Perhaps an altera-
tive pill might be of service. This, we think, is the
remedy likely to be resorted to in a majority of cases.
As to the Lords rejecting the Bill as now sent up
from the Commons, there is, we are sorry to say, no
chance of that. They have got too good an offer to
risk any farther higgling. They will strike the bar-
gain forthwith. The truth is, they never expected
that the Commons would yield to their exorbitant
demands. They thought, however, that there was no
harm in asking—that the more they asked, the more
they were likely to get—and accordingly they
added clause after clause, the one more extrava-
gant than the other, blustering all the while, and
swearing that not one tittle less would they accept.
They thus bullied the Commons into their own terms,
and now to keep up the humbug, they have ordered
the Times, and their other organs, to advise them not
to come to a collision with the other branch of the
Legislature. The " apostate," never so much in
hiS element as when he is deceiving, sets
about his task with all that appearance of
sincerity which he knows so well how to assume.
He advises the Lords rather to forego some of their
improvements than endanger the peace of the country
—though the old sinner has all along said that there
was no danger to the peace of the country, which, ac-
cording to him, entirely approved of their Lordships'
conduct—and' recommends, as he had been directed,
that they should meet the Commons in the same con-
ciliatory spirit which they had manifested in so emi,
nent a degree towards their Lordships. He then
proceeds to bespeak particularly the forbearance
of the Duke of WELLINGTON, whom he besmears
with the disgusting slaver of his flattery—flattery a
thousand times more painful to that distinguished per-
son, than all the abuse vomited forth against him by
the Mock-Radical, in those days when the Noble Duke
was styled the " soft-headed and hard-hearted hero of
Waterloo." It now " imports their own dignity— •
their estimation with all ranks of their countrymen—
the stability of more than one of our highest institu-
tions, &c., &c., not to offer any further resistance" to
the measure. After this, we cannot doubt the
final result, though we should not be at all
surprised if there were still a little shamming in the
Upper House—a pretended reluctance on the part of
their Lordships to descend from the high ground they
have have taken ! Yet who knows what they may
not be induced to do by the honest and unprompted
advice of the Times, to " add grace to that victory
which their firmness and wisdom have achieved for the
constitution ! I"

The whole of the Paris Papers of Wednesday have
been received. On Tuesday, the Court of Peers
adopted the Juries Bill by a Ministerial majority of
49. The Report on the Bill for abolishing the Liberty
of the Press was not expected to be brought up before
the beginning of this week, although it is not believed
thht any amendments will be carried in Committee ;
the Members, with two exceptions, being the tools of
M. PERSIL.

On Wednesday, the Court Royal decided upon the
appeal of M. RASPAIL, the Editor of the lifforma-
teur. It appears that this persecuted individual, whose
adherence to liberal principles, and ability in defend-
ing them, has exasperated the Minister of the Interior,
and caused considerable annoyance to the regal apos-
tate who sways the destinies of France, was seized
by order of the Government, during a residence at
Nantes, and dragged by the Police to Paris, without
being allowed either food or rest on the way. On ar-
riving in the capital he was hauled before M. ZAN-
GIACOMI, a juge d'instruction, who after finding that
no guilt could be proved against the victim of ministe-
rial fury, sneeringly asked him what he (M. RAs-
PAIL) would do if his partisans, the Republicans,
had been successful ? " Send all the law officers to
Bedlam, for they have lost their senses," was, the in-
genuous answer of the incensed and insulted Editor.
This answer was all that the Government tool on the
Bench required. M. RASPAIL was arraigned for a
contempt of Court, and sentenced to two years' impri-
sonment, and five surveillance of the spies of M.
THIERS I M. RASPAIL appealed to a higher tribunal,
and on Wednesday his first sentence was confirmed
with the exception of the Surveillance I Such is the
state of public justice in France, five years after a
popular revolution in defence of public liberty.
The cholera makes great ravages at Genoa. On
the 21st, the number of deaths was fifty-three.
A letter of the 22d, in the evening, says :—" 'We
are still alive, but surrounded with dead or dying.
The sanitary state of the city becomes worse and worse
every day. The disorder is very rapid in its effects ;
death ensues in a few hours."

After the long drought a storm has done great
damage in the department of Calvades. At Carolles
a house was set on fire by the lightning, and twenty
houses were burned in consequence. At Manevilla,
a girl fifteen years of age was killed by lightning, and
a house burned.

The Journal de Commerce says that a whirlwind;
had unroofed 20 houses,
_and that some persons being

`eat ght up by it, made a little aerial voyage, but re-
ceived' no injury..
The Indicateur says :—" 4,000 Carlists are assem-
bled at Ernani. Other forces seem to be on the march.
They are fortifying Santa Barbara, on the road to St.
Sebastian. The bridge at Urgubel, by which EL
PASTOR was to pass, is destroyed. Lastly, it is an-
nounced that 14 battalions will assemble at that point,
to hinder any sally from St. Sebastian."
The Memorial des Pyrennees says :—" The news
from the theatre of war is uninteresting ; DoN CAR-
LOS, with the greater part of his force is at Estella.
The Carlist detachments at Irun continue the works
of a regular siege, before the slight fortifications which
defend the head of the bridge of the Bidassoa. It was
expected that EL PASTOR would come and relieve
this important passage, which it is necessary for the
QUEEN'S troops to preserve. It will be more difficult
now, if ,true that 4,000 Carlists have assembled at
Ernani, to cut off all communication with the frontier."

'Brussels Papers of the 3d inst. have been received.
During the sitting of the Ist inst. in the Chamber of
Representatives, the order of the day was the debate on
the following project of law, presented, by M. F. DE
MERODE

" Art. 1. The following persons shall be considered as
Belgians by birth, and shall enjoy all civil and political
rights, attached to such quality :-1. Individuals, Belgians br
birth, who, having been, without permission, in foreign mili-
tary service, having returned to Belgium before the Ist of
January, 1833, have fought for the cause of the revolution,
or have entered the national army, or been admitted to some
civil employment, and have since continued to reside in Bel-
gium. 2. The inhabitants of the Northern Provinces of the
late kingdom of the Netherlands, who were fettled, or who
have come to reside in Belgium before the 7th Feb. 1831, and
have since continued to reside there.
9

The persons to whom the preceding article applies must
declare that it is their intention to enjoy the benefit of the pre-
sent law. This declaration must be made within six months
from the date of the promulgation of the law, in the form and
before the authority designated in Art. 133 of the Constitution.
3. Individuals, Belgians by birth, designated in Art. 1, who
have returned to Belgium with the King's leave, and have
already made the declaration required by Art. 18 of the civil
code, are not required to make the above declaration.
4. Belgians by birth are excepted from the Ist Article who
have remained after the Ist August, 1831, in the service of a
Powe'r at war with Belgium.
5. This law shall be in force the day after its promulgation.
The law, which gave rise to considerable discussion, was in
the end adopted.

Advices from Constantinople to the 12th of August
have been received, but the intelligence they bring is
unimportant. The insurrection in Albania continues to
engage the SUBLIME PORTE'S most serious attention.
VESSAF EFFENDI, son-in-law of the Home Minister
and the SULTAN'S private Secretary, has been sent on
a special mission to the Albanian chiefs;with instruc-
tions to make terms with the insurgents if he judge it im-
practicable to compel them to submit to the authority of
the PORTE. Should the terms, which he is authorized
to propose, be rejected by the Albanians, MOUSHIR
ACHMET PASHA has received orders to march with
the whole of the troops under his command into
Roumelia.

The British expedition to India, by way of the
Euphrates, reached Bir without encountering any se-
rious obstacle. The most dangerous part of the
journey, however, begins at Bir, as beyond it the
Arab tribes are More independent of the power of
MEHEMET ALI. Colonel CHESNEY, who con-
ducted the expedition as far as Bir, has applied
to Mr. WERRY, the British -Consul at Aleppo,
to precede the travellers for the purpose of
making terms with the Arabs for a safe escort.
We understand that Mr. \\TERRY, ,0;100 speaks Arabic
with great fluency, has consented to the terms proposed
by Colonel CHESNEY. Should the expedition suc-
ceed in reaching India in safety by the Euphrates
route, Government will take measures for rendering it
exclusively a British mercantile thoroughfare.
It is reported in Constantinople that Russia intends
to make an offer of any number of steam-boats to Lord
DURHAM 011 entering the Black Sea ; and thus, un-
der pretence of complimenting a British Ambassador,
to prevent his Lordship from passing the Dardanelles
even in such a ghost of a man-of-war as the Pluto.
We cannot take upon us to say what are the precise
intentions of Russia ; but we rely with confidence on
Lord DURHAM'S firmness and zeal for the honour of
the English flag. He cannot, however, be too much
on his guard in a country where the least oversight
may be construed into an acknowledgment of Russian
supremacy.

A project of a very extensive nature, for the inter-
nal improvement of Brazil, is on the point of being brought
forward in the city. Some exclusive privileges have been ob-
tained for that purpose, among which arc those levying tolls
on the roads and canals to be made; of establishing barriers
and turnpikes ; of steam navigation on the rivers ; and con-
structing warehouses and wharfs. The site of the operations
is to be entirely within the province of Rio de Janeiro, and the
chief objects are to connect by canal and the intervening navi-
gable lakes and rivers the town of St. Salvador de Campos
with the•port of Macahe, and to make roads between the mu-
nicipalities of Novo Friburg and Cantagallo and that of
Macahe. Many of the leading merchants connected with
Brazil take a share in this undertaking, of whose prospects in
a pecuniary point of view no opinion can be given in this stage
of the proceedings ; the advantages to Brazil, if the plans are
carried into effect, cannot be at all doubtful ; they must give
a strong impulse to the improvement and civilization of the
whole country.

ATTEMPT OF A FEMALE TO COMMIT SUICIDE
IN HYDE PARK.—Between six and seven o'clock on Wednes-
day evening, Mr. Henry Coles of No. 10, John-street, Edg-
ware-road, was crossing Hyde Park, and when near to Hyde
Park-corner he observed a respectably dressed young woman
leaning back on one of the seats, with her countenance much
distorted, and evidently sinking into a state of stupor. Mr.
Coles suspected from her appearance that she had swallowed
poison, and on approaching her this opinion was confirmed by
her smelling strongly of laudanum. Mr. Coles immediately
procured assistance, and had the unfortunate woman conveyed
without delay to St: George's Hospital, where by the aid of
the stomach-pump the poison was extracted, but from the
length of time it had been taken, the effect had sunk so deeply
into the system that at first her life was considered in the
greatest possible danger, but, however, hopes are now enter-
tained of her recovery. The name of the unfortunate young
woman has since been ascertained to be Mary Ann Dent, and
she is the wife of a corporal in the 2d regiment of Foot Guards.
The cause of her attempting the rash act is attributed to
jealousy.

CORONER'S INQUEST.—AWFUL VISITATION.
—Wednesday a Coroner's inquest was held before Mr. Carter,
Coroner for Surrey, at the Old Rose, Bridge-row, Westmin-
ster-bridge, on the body of Mrs. Mary Fisher, aged 77, who
died under the following awful circumstances :—Mrs. Harriet
Caroline Foster, No. 49, Bridge-row, stated that she kept a
tobacconist's shop, and the deceased assisted her as a friend.
On Saturday evening, about eight o'clock, witness was in the
shop, and the deceased left her to go into the parlour. After
witness had served a customer, she went to speak to the de-
ceased, who was sitting on a chair, with her bead reclining
against the wall. As she made no reply, witness immediately
sent for Dr. Cook, who promptly arrived, and, on feeling the
deceased's pulse, he pronounced her to be dead, in his opinion
death having occurred from a spasmodic affection of the heart.
Dr. Cook applied stimulants, and opened a vein in the de-
ceased's arm, but no blood flowed.—Verdict, " Visitation of
God."
