THE;, SUN,

forward this motion with any view of censuring tbo Go-
vernme:it; but he cotA not understand tlae justice of
inquiring into the judicial and diplomatic salaries, and
the salaries of official men with seats in Parliament, and`
not inquiring into others. No one had said a word to
justify such a distinction.—(hear,)
The House then divided on the previous question,
viz , " That the motion be now put," when there ap-
peared—
For putting the motion... ... 173
Against it ... ... 269
Majority against it
Consequently the motion was not put.
SALE OF POISONS.

Mr. SANDFOItI) then moved fur a Select Committee
to inquire what restrictions should be placed on the sale
of poisons.
Sir GEORGE GREY said the use of poisons was more
frequent than formerly, and the sale of them required
regulation. A Bill had been prepared on the subject.
The difficulty was to enumerate or define poisons, and
he thought the Committe would not produce the effect
the Hon. Member proposed. He hoped the Hon. Mem-
ber would therefore withdraw his motion.

Sir R. INGLIS thought the Hon. Member ought to
withdraw his motion, having been assured that the Go-
vernment intended to introduce a Bill on the subject.
Mr. BANKES said the Hon. Member might refer the
Bill when introduced to a Select Committee, if he thought
that course useful.
fir WILLIAM SOMERVILLE then moved that the
House should go ibto Committee pro forma on the
Elections (Ireland) Bill, which was agreed to, and amend-
ments inserted.
The Defects in Leases Act Amendment Bill then went
through Committee, and was ordered to be toad a third
time to-morrow (this day.)
AMENDED FACTORY BILL.

Lord ASHLEY wished to say, in explanation, with
regard to the Factory Bill, that he would substitute the
clauses now in his hand instead of those already pro-
posed, which would impose a further limitation of the
meal time, and gave notice that he would propose them
on Thursday next, and which would be printed with
the votes tomorrow. He had stated, when he got leave
to introduce a Bill to amend the second clause of the
Factory Bill, that he would not introduce any new
matter; but as it was impossible to carry out his views
without doing so, he thought it but fair to notify his
intention upon that point.
Mr. M. GIBSON said he thought sufficient time
would not be given to parties to consider the matter.
Lord ASHLEY said the amendments would tie printed
to-morrow with the votes, and that he had no intention
to take the House by surprise.
The matter then dropped, and the House adjourned at
One o'clock.

GERMANY.

Advices have been received from Vienna to the

powered to do so by the :bishop in whose diocese the in-
staution may situated.
" 2. That the Liiehop is at liberty, at any time, to
withdraw the said permission or licence for any indivi-
dual; but that the were withdrawal of such licence does
riot deprive any teacher appointed by Gnvcrnment of the
pension to which in law he may be entitled.
" See. 3. The Government retains the right of tip-
, pointing such persons as cave received he sanction of

REGISTRAR OF PREROGATIVE COURT.
Sir B. HALL said he must claim the indulgence of
the House for a few moments, in consequence of a cir-
cumstance that had occurred to him this morning. It
would be in the remembrance of the House that
he had on a former day asked a question of the
First Lord of the Treasury whether the reversion of the
office of the Registrar of the Prerogative Court had
been filled up by the Archbishop of Canterbury with the
name of his own son, or with that of the son of the
Bishop of Winchester. To that question the Noble Lord
answered that the Archbishop had appointed his own son,
a young gentleman studying at the Temple, to the re-
verion of the office. He (Sir B. Hall) perceived that the
answer of the Noble Lord had been stated by some of the
public prints to be that the son of the Bishop of Win-
chester, and in consequence of that he bad this morning
received a letter from that prelate, by his son, Mr. C.
Sumner, calling his attention to the subject, and stating
that no son of his had had anything to do with the
affair, and begging him to take the earliest opportunity
of setting him (the Bishop) right with the public, as
ho considered that if there were any blame attached
to such appointments, those who received them were of
course to be considered as particips criminis. He
there` ore now stated in the House that the answer
which the Noble Lord had given him was that the son
of the Archbishop of Canterbury had received the ap-
pointment.

POOR-LAW RELIEF.

Mr. Aldirreati SIDNEY asked the Right lion. the
President of the Poor-law Board whether it was his
intention to introduce any measure with regard to the
law of settleinent; also, whether, he intended to intro-
duce any measure for the alteration of the Union Charge
Act, ELIA if not, whether he would be disposed to take
any measure to introduce a Bill having reference to the
city of London only, where the inequalities were the
greatest.
Mr. BAINES said that with reference to the two first
questions, the subjects of which were connected with
each other, the matter had been long under the considera-
tion of the Poor-law Board, but the state of business
precluded the Government from bringing in any measure
this session, though he would be under the necessity
of asking the House to prolong the Union
Charges Act for another year. With regard to the last
part of his question, he did not think any special mea-
sure necessary for the city of London; any measure
which he might introduce would be a general one.

FRANCE.

At the sittinz of the Tribunal of First Instance
yesterday, M. Denten.l, notary, presented to the
President the will of the ex-liin3. Louis Philippe,
and the President decreed that M. Dentend should
retain possession of it. This document is written
by the King himself. By another judgment the
President, M. Breton, was charged to translate the
register of the death of Louis Philippe. communi-
cated by the registrar of the di.ttrict of Esher, county
of Surrey. This he did, after taking an oath to
translate fsitbfully.
The Ordre has the following on the attempt made
by certain parties to bring about a fuliuu of the two
branches of the Bourbons :
" A violent act destroyed the Charter of 1830, and
overturned the throne of the Orleans family. But,
amongst the citizens, who in presence of the present ex-
perience of republican forms, do not despair to yet see
a constitutional monarchy, many preserve the same
feeling with respect to that family. They think that if
the national majority one day decided to restore that
monarchy, it might be led, as in 1830, to apply to
princes whote character it esteems and whose ser-
vices it appreciates. Why do they persist in that idea?
Because they believe, right or wrong, that the royalty of
tha Honse of (Means, with a regime liberally and sin-
cerely represi-ntivive, would be the best term of applying
the principle the national sovereignty, and because it
is the ssrious, useful, and political maintenance of that
principle, which they desire before all. But, if the Orleans
family abandoning that principle of national sovereignty,
of which it was the expression in 1830, should go and
range itself und-r the flag of legitimacy, %bat would it
have done? It would have renounced the eventualities,
which may be reserved to it by the position which the
country spontaneously gave to it in 1830. It would thus
separate from France, but it would draw France after
it? That would be too much to suppose. France, with
the Orlsaes family, would not the less remain power-
fully, and immovably attached to the supreme principle,
which by its determined desire will henceforward pre-
side over its destinies. What, then, would in definitive
be the result of the fusion, or of the submission of the
Princes of the younger branch to legitimacy? The
Count de Chambord would reckon some subjects the
more in the person of those princes, and of some friends
and servants who are personally attached to them.
But the principle of national sovereignty would not be
diminished. France whilst regretting the desertion of
those whom she once called on to represent her, would
know how to find other means of maintaining it at the
head of her Government. The fusion, contrary to an
opinion pretty generally disseminated, would really have
tais consequence; that the citoyems who desire to con-
ciliate the principle of the national sovereignty with the
conditions of a stable Government would rally in great
numbers either to the republic or to the present President.
It wuuld he M. Louis Napoleon Bonaparte and not the
Count de Chambord that the fusion would serve."

HERRING TRADE.

WICK, AUGUST 29.—The herring fishing i!
this dktrict has been a good deal interrupted thi,
week by the inclemency of the weather, which i,
the more to be regretted, as there appeared to be e
body of excellent fish on the coast. There were some
very heavy shoes each day, ranging from thiry-sever
10 fifty crans, but a great many boats were poorl2.
ti,hed. On Wednesday several curers were very
heavily fi4ied, and had late and disagreeable wort,
in salting. Hi.d the boats got to sea that
night and the remainder of the week, of
%inch at present there is not much pros-
pect, the fi,hing, it is believed, would have been
a toll average one. There is every probability now
ofits turnitg out a short fibbing, as little good i, ex
pected to be done after this week,; which, with many
crews, will be the winding up for the season. The
average for the season is 90* crans, being about 44
crans per
boat under the same date last year. Price
of cured fish is slightly on the rise, though most pur-
ch ices during the week have been made at last

Apt ECCENTRIC.—On the day, on which Diuis
Philippe died there departed this life, in the rue Rousselet
Saint'Germairt, a singular old lady, formerly an Ursuline
nun, known as Sister Marie. She was born in Corsica, on
the 155th of August, 1;69, the same day as Napoleon, and all
her life she entertained a fervent admiration for her great
countryman. .At an early age she entered a convent, but
when religious houses were broken up, in 1793, she return d
to the world. She became gov-rnese in a noble family, and
they allowed her a pension of 2,o(ief. a year. On this, having
no taste for a convect life, she Lived, but cut of respect to
her previous vows she remained strictly alone. Fe.r between
40 and 50 years she lived in the same apartment ; and there
she had collected 200 or 300 birds, which she tended with
the greatest care. The :butters of her spa' trnet,t were al-
ways kept closed and barred. Every morning she went to
attend MASS in the church of the Missions Ezra, genes, and,
on her re, urn, bought hcr stock of daily provisions. She was
never known to make a linger journey, except on the occa-
sion of the funeral of Napoleon, vben, notwithstanding her
advanced age, she followed his remains on fcot Irons Neuilly
to the Invalides.

A SENSIBLE PROP^SAL.—A "inert] preacher," who
once said " he didn't like church parsono. because they was
book-larnt," was nc.-ntly conducting a religions service, awl
on opening the Bible unfortunately stumbled upon a chapter
almost full of hard, proper names. lie began to read as if
he were a perfect master of pronunciation. Presently he
came to a hard long name. He paused; be attacked it; be
got into the middle of it ; he went. back and triad it again ; at
last he tumbled right over it, alid then coolly said, "Let us
turn, dear brothers and sisters, to an easier chapter."— Man- •
