On the motion of Mr. P. THOMSON, the Order of tim
Day was read, and the House went into a Committee of ae
whole House on the Customs Duties Bill, Mr. B. CARTER in
the Chair.

sumed, and the Report was ordered to be brought up to-

morrow.
STAMPS AND ASSESSED TAXES.
Mr. P. THOMPSON brought up the Report of the Corn-
rnittce upon the Stamp and Assesseil Taxes Act Bill.
Mr, C. BULLER wished to take that opportunity of eor-
r2cting a misstatement he had heard, relative to the number of
stamps issued to newspapers, which he found he had much
underrated. He begged to move for a Return of the number
of stamps issued to newspapers, as follows :—" Of the number
of stamps issued by the Stamp-office for all the London news-
papers, from the 30th June 1833 to the Ist January 1831 ;
specifying each newspaper by name, and the number of stamps
issued in that period to the printer and publisher of each news-
paper ; similar Return, from Ist January to 30th June 1834 ;
similar Return, from 30th June 1834 to Ist January 1835 ;
similar Return, from Ist January to 30th June 1833."—Return
ordered.

Mr. HUTT, seeing his Hon. Friend (Mr. Wallace) in his
place, begged leave to ask him what course he meant to pur-
sue with respect to a petition he presented a few nights ago,
complaining of bribery at the late election for Hull.
Mr. WALLACE, in reply to the Hon. Gentleman, begged
leave to say that early next Session he would most certainly
move for a Select Committee to inquire into the allegations
of the petition, and he was sure it would not be refused upon
a fair statement.

POLLS. AT ELECTIONS BILL.

Mr. E WART moved that the Lords Amendments to the
above Bill be agreed to.
Mr. PRYME trusted that more time would be given for
the consideration of these amendments—he had not yet seen
them.
Mr. E WA RT would be glad that some other course was taken
for pointing out the amendments that were made in Bills. It
would be very convenient if the clerks were ordered to draw out
these amendments. He had carefully looked them over, and
he could assure the House that there was nothing in them
affecting the principles of the Bill, and he trusted that they
would be agreed to.
Mr. DIVETT said he had also looked over these amend.
merits, and he could assure the House that there was nothing
affecting the principle of the Bill.
The amendments were then read and agreed to.
DUBLIN POLICE BILL.

On the motion that the Speaker do leave the Chair,
Mr. G. F. YOUNG wished to ask the Noble Lord
opposite a question. A few nights ago, upon the subject
of the Composition of the York Committee, the Noble Lqrd
(Russell) in referring to his ( Mr. Young's) humble name, Was
pleased to say that he classed him, most erroneously.
amongst his opponents, and that on four divisions out of
five he was to be found amongst the opponents of the Noble
Lord's Ministry. Assuredly, if the fact were so, it would be
no ground of reproach ; but as it was an erroneous statement
it had been a source of pain, inconvenience and injury
to him. And as he had submitted to the Noble Lord the
best proof that he ( Lord John Russell) had been in error, he
trusted that with that frankness which always characterised a
generous mind, he would not refuse to make reparation. He
therefore wished to ask the Noble Lord whether he was
satisfied that he was in error in stating that in four
divisions out of five he was found in the adverse votes to Mi-
nisters ?

;Lord J. RUSSELL—I am exceedingly glad to find that
the Hon. Gentleman reckons himself amongst the supporters
of Ministers.—( Loud cheers.)
Mr. YOUNG—_I wish for that, and nothing more.
Lord JOHN RUSSELL said he could not but bo ex-
ceedingly glad that the Hon. Gentleman wished to be ranked
amongst the supporters of his Majesty's present Ministry.
He certainly, he must admit, spoke on the occasion which bad
been referred to by the Hon. Gentleman, from what had
struck him at the moment ; and he believed that his impres-
sion was taken from the circumstance of the Hon. Member
having voted on the division on the Amendment to the 'Ad-
dress; and on another memorable oomion to which he need.

In Somersetshire, with possession, St. Audrie's favoured Marine
Mansion and Demesne, and finely-wooded and Deer Parks in the
Vale between Bridgwater and Taunton, with about One Thou-
sand Two Hundred and Sixty Acres of Land, Manorial Rights
and Privileges, and Minerals in great abundance.
TO BE SOLD BY AUCTION,

Opposite Hyde-park, Rutland-house Mansion and Grounds, with
Seven Acres of capital Land, suited to a first-rate Residence, or
a building operation, upon a very extended scale.
TO BE SOLD BY AUCTION,
By Mr. GEORGE ROBINS,
At the Auction Mart, on TRuasnAY, August 27, by direction of
the executrix of Fursan Manners, Esq., lately deceased,
Singularly Valuable FREEHOLD PRO-
PERTY. Its situation proudly challenges a comparison
within its little remove from the metropolis of London, Kingston-
house on one side, and Lords Morley and De Dunstanville's on the
other, in this favoured part of KNIGHTSBRIDGE.

HYDE PARK,
is so identified by means of the privilege of entree, as to be a prin-
cipal auxiliary to this mansion.
RUTLAND HOUSE was formerly the seat of one of the

NOBLE DUKES OF RUTLaND.
Any attempt to do justice to the situation must prove unavailing,
the greatest difficulty which Mr. Robins feels is in suggesting the
most advantageous plan, while every thought seems to produce
another and more inviting scheme.

A FREEHOLD DOMAIN, SEVEN ACRES OF LAND,
IN FRONT OF HYDE PARK,

is so fruitful in imagination, holds out so many temptations to aug-
ment income, that a purchaser alone must decide which of the many
to prefer. The present would be inadequate to the high preten-
sions of a Nobleman, without encountering a large outlay.
A MINISTER OF STATE
would however find it exceedingly difficult to resist this expendi-
tare, or adopt the alternative to erect a more
SPLENDID HABITATION,

when it is remembered that all the agremens of a town and country
abode are combined at a distance of ten minutes' drive from the
great offices of state ; to those who incline to a large annual re-
venue,

AN IMMENSE SQUARE OF FIRST-RATE HOUSES
would probably present itself, and such an undertaking mast be
viewed as a certainty, rather than a speculation ; it could not fail
to be abundantly productive, and an immense income, arising from
FREEHOLD GROUND RENTS,
_ _ _

would thus be attained without the use of capital. A skilful archi-
tect will however demonstrate the fact with more precision and
certainty ; the frontage is immense, and it must never be forgotten
that Hyde Park being its natural boundary, and entirely open in
front by the late improvement of iron fence, detached villas rnigslit
be placed to the greatest possible advantage ; and as the brick-work
of the present mansion is substantial and good it would aid mate-
rially either of the proposed plans. In consequence of the demise
of Mr. Manners it may be observed, by way of conclusion, that it
will be offered to unreserved competition.
Particulars may be had (with a Plan of the Grounds) of Mr.
Spike, Solicitor, Clifford's Inn; the Club-houses in St. James's •
street, and the Garrick Club in King-street ; the Auction Mart ;
and in Covent-garden.

THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY, AUGUST 25, 1835.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF COMMONS, AuGusr_24.

The SPEAKER took the Chair a few minutes to four o'clock.

Colonel BRUEN was introduced by Sir Henry Hardinge and
Mr. Freshfield, and took the oaths and his seat for the county
of Carlow. _ _

Mr. TOOKE brOught up the Report of the Committee
on Sparrow's Estate Bill.
Mr. P. HOWARD brought up the Report of the Com-
mittee on the Port Dundas and Dalgreen Road Bill.
Mr. Campbell, from the East India House, presented papers
relative to Compensation granted to the Officers of the Com-
pany's service.—Laid on the table.
Mr. CRAWFORD presented a petition, praying that the
foreign wheat now in bond may be allowed to be ground into
flour.

Mr. SINCLAIR presented petitions from places in Scot-
land in favour of the Church of Scotland.
MUNICIPAL REFORM.

Mr. OS WALD presented a petition from Glasgow, pray-
ing that the House would not pass the Municipal Reform Bill
in a mutilated state ; also a petition from the merchants of the
same place, praying for an alteration in the bonded system ;
also a petition from the house-carpenters and joiners of the
same place, praying for a repeal of the taxes on knowledge.
Mr. V. SMITH presented a petition signed by 2,300 in-
habitants of the borough of Northampton. The petitioners
prayed that as the Bill for the Reform of the Municipal Cor-
porations was not 'likely to return in the shape in
which it had been sent from the House of Commons,
they would reject it altogether, in order that in the next
session a similar measure might be brought. The petitioners
further prayed that that House would exercise the authority
it possesses over the public purse, and not grant the remaining
supplies, and further that it would take away all pensions and
pecuniary grants from persons engaged in the mutilation of
that Bill.

rvt refer, at the commencement of the Session, and also on
some proposed amendments to the Corporation Bill, against
those who formed that side of the House (the Ministerial. )
These were the facts which he had in his mind at the time he
Made the declaration alluded to. But he by no means wished
to say that the Hon. Member for Teignmouth was not as up-
porter of the present Government ; on the contrary, he be-
lieved that looking to all the divisions which had taken place
since the commencement of the Session, his statement was an
erroneous one. He hoped, indeed, that in future he might
calculate upon the Hon. Gentleman as one of the firmest sup-
porters of the Government.
Mr. YOUNG—I always vote with the Noble Lord with
great pleasure, and I never oppose him but with the greatest
regret.—(Great cheering.)
The Bill went through a Committee, and was ordered to be
brought in to-morrow.
DOMINICA RELIEF BILL.

Mr. BERNAL brought up the Report of the Committee
on this Bill, which, after a few observations from Mr.

HUME and the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, was agreed
;o, and the Bill was ordered Lobe read a third time to-morrow.

tention those papers' which the Government have thought it
their duty-to lay on your Lordship's table, and after a diligent
perusal of them I do not hesitate to express a hope that you
will not sanction the degree of spoliation which this measure
proposes, and which, after squeezing every shilling for the un-
fortunate subjects of your legislation, and after annulling the
effects of an Act of Parliament which has already been passed,
will be found to amount only to a sum- of 40,0001.--( Hear.)
The Noble Marquis has spoken of the receipts of the clergy.
Why the whole funds would only allow them a stipend of 301.
a year each. The Noble Lord opposite was pleased to say
that he was now entitled to your Lordships' support, because
at an early period of the session he announced his intentions,
and notwithstanding you continued to give him your support
during the session of Parliament. It is perfectly true that we
(meaning the Opposition Lords) have given him our support
during the session ; that I have done everything in my power
to forward the business of the Government, and that I op-

pose it on this occasion, and with reference to another
Bill, only because I consider it my duty to give it that
opposition.—( Loud cheers.) I can assure the Noble
Lord that I am sorry he does not intend to carry into
execution this measure. I shall feel happy in giving him every
assistance in the performance of the business of tho country,
and in rendering it as easy as:possible to him ; but he cannot
expect that I should fail in performing the duty which I,
in my situation in this House of Parliament, owe to his Ma-
jesty and to the nation.—( Cheers from the Opposition.) Con-
sidering the manner in which the measure was brought for-
ward in the other House of Parliament, I do not think that it
is quite fair that the responsibility of the failure of the mea-
sure, or the sufferings to which another class of persons may
be subjected, should be visited upon those who now vote against
this part of the measure.—( Cheers.)
Lord BROUGHAM—This is a money clause, if you strike
it out, you destroy the Bill.—( Hear. )
Viscount DUNC ANNON—I only rise to say that if this
clause be struck out, you leave the collection of tithes to be made
under much more severe enactments than those under which
they are collected at this moment. Ido hope, therefore, that
my Noble Friend will adhere to the determination which he
has expressed, because after your Lordships have removed
the clause which can alone render the measure acceptable to
the people of Ireland, every step you take in the further pro-
gress of the, measure can have no other effect than that of
offering an insult to the people of England as well as of Ireland.
Their Lordships then divided—

The House then adjourned at half-past two o'clock.

ORANGE LODGES.

Col. VERNER presented a petition from the Grand
Orange Lodge of Ireland, complaining of the formation of
the Orange Lodge Committee, and charging it with partial
conduct. It also prayed that the Committee should be re-
sumed, and ordered to prosecute their enquiries further, and
give the Lodges an opportunity of defending themselves.
Mr. RUTHVEN defended the Committee. The witnesses
were sent for in shoals, and many were never at all examined,
and were not intended to be so.

Colonel PERCH VAL said the Hon. Gentleman had been
most grossly misinformed. The witnesses before that Com-
mittee had been economized as far as possible, and had been
kept in Ireland till they were wanted. He hoped the in-
quiry would be continued, and it would be found that there was
not a more loyal body than the Orangemen.
Mr. RONA YNE presented a petition from Ardagh,ipray-
ing for the abolition of tithes, which in that parish amounted
to one-sixth of the value..

Mr. SCHOLEFIELD presented a petition from Birming-
ham against the Patent Laws' Bill.
Mr. MORGAN O'CONNELL presented a petition from a
parish in the county of Meath, praying for poor laws for Ire-
land.

EED S not WORDS, are the Maxims of the

deserve it.

Consols, the brokers and jobbers are busy in settling their accounts.
Omnium,l2i premium ; Exchequer Bills, 20 22 ; India Bonds, 5 7 ;

The Foreign Market is very buoyant, owing to the favourable
accounts from Madrid of the Urban militia having followed the
example of Sir John Falstaff's regiment, throwing down their arms
and running away.
Spanish, which was yesterday morning at 354, has reached 414
to 42; Spanish Scrip, which was 244 discount, is now 184; Por-
tuguese, 864 87.
There are arrivals this morning from Falmouth. They state the
arrival there of the Espoir and Pantaloon from Lisbon ; the for-
mer sailed on the 9th inst. and the letter on the 16th inst. At the
above period the capital was tranquil and the Ministers were popu-
lar. Prince Saxe Coburg was spoken of as being the future hus-
band of the Queen.
It is asserted in the City that the King has sent for Sir Robert
Peel, who will be in town this evening.

HALF-PAST ONE.
The Foreign information at present is not of such importance as
our own domestic affairs. In the City, this morning, the general
topic of conversation related to3whether Ministers would resign, or
wait to be turned out—on which subject various opinions prevailed,
and looked for with the greatest anxiety by the people.
The British Funds have rather improved since the morning,
when Consols were 89* for the Account ;at present they are
893- /, with little doing.

The Foreign Market, which was very busy in the morning, has
taken a turn. Spanish Bonds, which had reached 41/ to 42, have
receded to 39/ 40, not owing to any further news from Spain, but
to parties realizing their profits.
Spanish Scrip, which was 18/ disc., is at present 20/ disc. ;

HOPKINS V. POWIS.

This was an application of nearly the same nature. There
were three causes, Hopkinson v. Powis, Harrington "•
Long, and Harrington v. Powis. In the, cause of Hopkin"
son v. Powis, a petition had been presctnted to discharge Or
vary an order made in 1823, for the purpose of taking ac-
counts of the administration of the property of the late Mr•
Long. Lord Brougham, o'd the last day of his sitting's►
handed out a note, in whi.ch he disposed of the three causes
seriatim ; but with res-..ence to the petition praying the dig'
charge of the order 1833, the note contained these words
—" Order to be reversed, and deposit returned."
Mr. Knight, Mr. Wakefield, and Mr. Barber, now cow
tended that the matter must be heard. _ _

Mr. TINNEY and Mr. BEAMES contended, on the other
side, that the word reverse was intended for discharge.
The LORD CHANCELLOR read the word reverse as mean'
ing discharge, because the petition itself prayed a discharge
of the order ; and he cast out of consideration the questioo
of the deposit, which he regarded as a mere slip. If the
Registrar could not draw up the order according to this
alteration, or if it did not meet the justice of the case, the
parties might have the matter reheard ; arid he thought
they had better in that case bring the matter on to-morrow'
while all parties. were prepared, so that the affair might be
finally disposed of.
His Lordship rose at three o'clock.

LITERATURE.

PARLIAMENTARY TEST BOOK FOR 1835.
E. Wilson, London. 1835.

A very valuable little manual—especially at the pre-
sent day, when public attention is wholly absorbed with
politics. The book professes to be a political guide
to the sentiments individually expressed, and the
pledges given, of all the six hundred and fifty-eight
members of the second Reformed House of Commons,
and gives extracts from their printed Addresses and
Speeches to their constituents, at the general election.
Such a work must, from its very nature, become po-
pular.

PELHAM.— VoL. 2. Colburn.—London : 1835.

The present volume of this deservedly popular tale,
which forms the second of Mr. Colburn's " Modern
Novelists," is embellished with two engravings of an
average order of merit. The work is handsomely got
up, and is sold at the reduced price of five shillings
per volume.

THE ABOLITIONIST.
S. Bagster, London. 1835.

The nature of this publication is sufficiently pointed
out in its title. It professes to give an account of the
present state of the British colonies, as far as respects
the slave system, and rightly accomplishes its task.

A GUIDE TO THE PURCHASE OF HORSES,
A SHORT ACCOUNT OF VETERINARY SURGERY.
Rutherylen, Glasgow. 1835.

No doubt these works will be found useful to those
whom they may concern; but as we are not of the num-
ber—having more frequently, in our critical capacity,
to deal with asses than horses—we give a favourable
opinion of them with considerable diffidence.

THE AGRICULTURAL
INAND INDUSTRIAL
London: Cochrane and Co.

This periodical, which is conducted under the su-
perintendence of a Committee of liberal Members of
the House of Commons, has reached its ninth num-
ber. It contains some very clever articles, and being
sold for twopence, is placed within the reach of the
poorest among the working classes.

SHIRREFP S TOUR THROUGH NORTH
AMERICA.
Oliver and Boyd. Edinburgh. 1835.
A well-written volume of travels, the result of much
thought, experience, and observation. The subject is
a hacknied one ; but the tourist abounds in anecdotes,
several of which, as they are characteristics of national
manners, and have, besides, novelty to recommend
them, we shall, on some leisure day, be tempted to
extract.

parture of SEBASTIAN! as Ambassador to London.

The German papers of the Bth inst., have been re-
ceived, from which important extracts are given in
another part of The Sun. The extract from the
Bavarian National Gazette, representing the frightful
state of immorality in that Kingdom, i. 3 particularly
deserving of the attention of the Society for the Sup-
pression of Vice.

Considerable excitement has been occasioned by
the arrival of two Turkish travellers in London, who
are said to be charged with extraordinary dispatches
from the PORTE to the British Government. The
cause assigned for these distinguished personages tra-
velling, as if from mere motives of curiosity, is said to
be the earnest wish of the SULTAN to conceal from
Russia the nature of a communication which places
the treacherous conduct of the CZAR in its proper
light. If this be so, the matter must be extraordinary
indeed ; but to us it does not appear probable that the
SULTAN should have recourse to such a step, without
first having tried the efficacy of an appeal to the Bri-
tish Minister at Constantinople. Neither can we per-
ceive any necessity for:,such extraordinary secrecy on the
part of the PORTF, with a British fleet then cruising in
the Black Sea, ready at a moment's notice to forward
any communication to the- British Government here,
despite of the threats of Russia.

HATTON-GARDEN.

Yesterday George Gallagher, a middle-aged man, was
brought before Messrs. ROGERS and BENETT, by Keys, a
parish officer of St. Pancras, in order to be passed to the
Lunatic Asylum at Hanwell.
The prisoner was bound in a strait-waistcoat, and looked
wildly.
The parish surgeon having been sworn,
Mr. BENETT asked him on what point the prisoner was
mad? Surgeon—He imagines that he is entitled to con-
siderable property.
Mr. BENETT (to the prisoner)—Well, are you entitled
to any property ? Prisoner (in a broad Irish dialect)—En-
titled to property ! To be sure I am—Didn't my godfather
lave it to me?

How did he leave it ?—Why, he was the richest man in
the kingdom, and he left me his jewels, his money, and the
whole of his property ; and nobody has a right to claim it
but myself.

Mr. RocEas—Did he will it to you ? Prisoner—To be
sure he did, and to nobody else.
Have you seen the will:—No, never, but didn't he tell
me that he would do so ?

Have you seen your godfather lately ?—Faith and I
never saw him—he left England soon after I was born.
Mr. BENETT (to the surgeon)—ls he mad upon any
other point ? Surgeon—No. He informs me that he has
got more plate, jewels, and money, than one of Meux's dray-
horses could draw.

Prisoner (to Mr. Rogers)—Ocb, then will you see me
rightified ?
Mr. ROGERS—Yes, certainly I will.
Prisoner (earnestly)-06, by my soul then, if you do,
I'll make you a handsome present, and you shall never want
in this world—you shall have plenty.
Mr. ROGERS—Ay, more than one of Meux's Amy-
horses can draw. Prisoner—Yes, faith, and if you dr,,
give your son a glass of gin and a gold seal.
Keys here handed the order for his removal to the Luna-
tic Asylum to the Magistrates, to be signed by them.
Mr. Roms—Have you given notice to the Asylum
that the man is about to be sent to them ? Keys—No,
Sir ; but it will be all the same if you give your signatures.
Mr. ROGERS—I shall certainly do no such thing until
such information is given. Keys—lf you sign it I can then
write to the Asylum on the subject. It will save trouble,
as our surgeon is present. . . _

Mr. RoC,Eas—The poor man is evidently insane, and in
such a case I shall not give my signature before you satisfy
me that there is room for him in the Asylum, and you must
take proper care of him until the necessary forms have been
gone through.
Mr. BENETT concurred that such a mode was correct,
and declined giving his signature.
The Magistrates then ordered that a letter should be for-
warded by the officer to Hanwell Asylum, and that the lu-
natic and the doctor should attend on a future day.
London, England, 1835-02-14

Q UEEN- S QUARE.

William Monk and Maria Jane Monk, his wife, were
brought up for examination before Messrs. WHITE and
BURRELL, charged with robbing their ready-furnished
lodgings.
The male prisoner, who was stated to have been an offi-
cer in the army, appeared to be in the most abject state of
destitution. He had scare* any clothing whatever but a
ragged pair of tronsm and a flannel jacket, not even a
sbirt, an,(l NY, he* bronght to the station-house was bare-
fo9t4l4til. one I),f the police-constables humanely gave him
a pair of shoes,
Mr. John Shepherd,of No: 9, Vine-street, Waterloo-
road, stated that the prisoners took apartments in his house
abeut three months ago. The male prisoner never came

out of his bed-room during that time. Suspecting latterly
that part of his furniture had been taken away, he made
inquiries at different pawnbrokers ih the neighbourhood,
and found that various articles had been purloined. A
sofa cover, and a set of brass fire-irons, had been pledged,
together with several other articles, his property, at 'Tur-
ner's, in the Waterloo-road, and he gave both prisoners into

custody.
The prisoner Monk said that his wife had taken the ar-
ticles to the pawnbrokers', by his directions. He had been
ill for a length of time, and he had•sent things to the
pawnbrokers', through downright starvation. He had for-
merly been in a very respectable station in society, and
said that if he were sent to prison it would be his death.
On the prisoner being brought up again yesterday it was
intimated to the magistrates that as it appeared to be a case
of great distress, the charge would not be pressed, and the
prisoners were, of course, discharged.

CHANCERY COURT-(THIS DAY).

SITTING OF THE LORD CHANCELLOR IN THE HOUSE OF
LORDS AND THE COURT OF CHANCERY.
Sir Wm. HORNE, upon the Lord Chancellor taking his
seat this morning, stated that as Parliament would meet in
the course of a few days, it would be most convenient to
the Bar and the suitors of the Court if his Lordship would
state in public what course he intended to pursue with re-
ference to the business in the Court of Chancery and the
hearing of appeals in the House of Lords.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said it was his intention to de-
vote two days one week, and three the ensuing week, alter-
nately, for the purpose of hearing appeals in the House of
Lords, by that means giving in one week four days to the
Court of Chancery, and in the next week three days, two of
those days in each week to be devoted to the hearing of
motions and appeals, and the other days in alternate weeks
to the regular business of the Court. On Friday and Sa-
turday next his Lordship would hear lunatic petitions.
Sir W. HoaNE observed that it would be a great con-
venience to the Bar, and greatly facilitate business, if his
Lordship would make some arrangement with respect to
the papers in the House of Lords.
The LORD CHANCELLOR must certainly consult with
Noble Lords before he made any definitive arrangement
upon that subject. The Bar might depend that in any
course he adopted their convenience and the interests of the
suitors should be consulted. His Lordship was of opinion
that when an arrangement was made it was for the interest
of all parties that it should be followed as closely as possible,
though he was aware that at times there were heavy and
pressing cases which made it necessary occasionally to alter
it. As soon as his Lordship had arranged the paper of
the House of Lords he would have it placed up in the
Court of Chancery for the convenience of the suitors and
the Bar.
