of Par.arnent, by Lords Grey and Althorp ; and the
announcement was rec.dved with the rarYt cheers
+from the supporters of Reform ,nd the frlenths of the
Kind. In both Houses, ',.utrever, explanari"us, rejoin-
lets, accusations, and interpre:arienw, billowed the an-
nouneemert as chick as hail ; but as there is no po,iblity

.t gleaning any think fctin. them but the expression of the
oersonal feelings of the speakers, we mu.t iecer our readi es
to the reports of the proceeding in ltiih Houses fora rn,re
particulrr account of them. Peel, it will he observed,
stated distinctly that he hal been nffer,±d. and had refu-ed,
tie Premiership, on the ground of tLeency, &c. ;
but we are apt to susik.c. that, however zratifying the offer
to rat on the Reform P.: 1, as lie had previously ,a,ted on
the Catholic question, !or: have been to him, the refusli
to do so will gain him but little credit, beyond that of
mere worldly prudence, with the country. lie may have
been scrupulous on the point of consistency—he may have
been conaci,ntious i❑ his antipathy to the Bill ; but there
teas a surer guarant, for both, in the moral imp.o.sib:lity
of his coming into office either as v Belot ,:ter or as au
Anti-Retormer. Thanks to the gpirit und the firmness of
the House of Commons, and to the spirit and firmness of
the people, this was an impossibility, aro e,,rsi,teney and
honour were, therefore, for on. e, in safe keeping. To
what particular mode, however, the House of Mu, is to
he " swamped," was not communicated to either House ;
nor is the matter worth much consideration. All that the
public cares about is, that the Bill tie eatrie,l; and carried
it will now be there can be no ifoubt.—;lforn. Ahertieer.

POLICE INTELLIGhNCE,

MAN SI ON.IIO USE.

Frederick Newsome, a boy. apparently ,:bout nine years
of age, was charged with having stolen some =it-times of
Apparel from his mother. The policeman rs== o toil him
into custody, produaed a couple of that description of thea-
trical swords used on the stage, W !WTI, air t• e
announce, " a terrific combat" is to ensue i)etween those
mein-dramatic heroes. These swords, =he Loy aiutitted,
he had purchased of a Jew, in P ttico it lane, with the
money he procured by the sale of the stolen artii s. It
turned out, from questions that were put to the boy, that
he had been seized with histrionic ambi,.iim, and, in order
to qualify himself for " principal tragediao," h 4.1 got up
the play of Othello, in concert with a dramatic corps of
juvenile aspirants. In order to do proper justice to the
" jealous Moor," be had robbed hi- mother to purchase
the requisite properties for dressing the el:am:en While he
.vas in the midst of his defence, with eork• a..kened
visage, pleading before a ragged cocci eve of Venetian
Senators, a policeman shifted the scene unexiseccolly by
taking him before another tribunal, to conduct tars detence
on his own account. Among scraps of pl4y4 and other
papers in his pocket was found the Itlllowiriz, progr imme
of the intended representation :—" Toe meddle drum of
Otheller to he hacted on Tosly nes, by the foll..ring j-oplar
hacters—Fred liewsom is to bent Otheller—and Dick
Mason is to hang sut my shirt, and perlorus De.inonilay—

The LORD MAYOR reprimanded thr boy sevtetly
learning that it was not the first tinie lie nad s,olen pro-
:ierty from his mother, and directed that he should be
handei over to his friends.

The intelligence which reached this city at a
very early hour on Wednesday morning, of Earl Grey having
received a communication from his Majesty, was received with
the strongest demonstrations of public delight, aml the natural
inference being that he and his colleagues wele to be recalled
to power, our fellow citizens set about showing to the world
that they were sincere in their exultation. - Flags were in-
,tantly seen to float on all the parish churches, and speedily
there commenc.d such a ringing and firing of 'Jed', and dis.
charging of cannon and other he-ivy arts, which lasted all
say and increased towards nightfall, as 5.•;,n10 have carried
back one's recollection to the days of "Extraordinary Ga-
zettes," in the late war. The object of their triti.noli was, how-
ever, of a character far more honourable to hl.:sonnity and ad-
vantageous to social happiness, and every el.:its, the highest
to the lowest, seemed to be relieved from a lu,d of anxious and
'.oding apprehension which the resignation of this I tithful band
of patriots had occasioned some days before. —Bath licrald.
A great cuss has been nLide ny s,•tart small pa-
pers about the Bar a•ldress to the King. A few words will ex-
plain the real value of this disinterested explosion of legal zeaL
The Bar consists of five King's Serjeants, fifty King's Counsel,
twenty.three Serjeants-at-Law, and about Bar:asters. Let
us see how many signed the conservative aiidress. Of the five
King's Serjeants, not one: of the 50 King's Counsel, only
eight—not quite a sixth of the whole : of '23 Serjeants, only
tour—about a sixth : of the 1,'2230 Barristers, '2..55--about a fifth.
And this is all the force that could be mustered after the stre-
nuous exertions, the earnest promises, whic.. were profusely em-
ployed to induce the expectant s of an anxious and aspiring body
to join what was considered by the prime movers a winning cause.
rhe Bar, with equal honour and sagacity, spume:: the proffered
mit ; and on this, as on all great occasions, has exhibited a
,roof that lawyers are, in spite of the pedantries of their pro.
f,ssion, compelled, from the very nature of their studies, to be
supporters of constitutional rights. Coke and Selden secured
the first great recognition of popular rights ; Maynard and
Somers the second , and we now see that five.sixths of the
existing lawyers (including all that is eminent for learning, and
eloquence, and character, at the English bar) are firm and un.
seducible friends of the Reform Bill.—Times.
