LONDON, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 1844

The exhibition which took place in Covent garden
Theatre, last evening, is a remarkable symptom of
the times. Never was that theatre, so celebrated for
the great actors who have attracted countless thou-
winds, so crowded as it was on this occasion, which
was merely- a weekly meeting of corn-law repealers•
Pit, boxes, galleries, passages, and every nook and
corner 'of the house, were filled to overflowing, and
with an audience, too, that would bear comparison
with any meeting in the country. There was no
rabble, no visitors merely for amusement ; it was a
meeting of men who felt, from sad experience, the
grievance of class legislation, and were determined,
in spite of the Houses of Parliament, to defend their
rights. They cared nothing for the assertion of the
Prime Minister, that he was determined to main-
tain the sliding-scale, and raise the price of bread,
which, since his declaration, has actually taken
place ! They set the monopolist landlords,
with RICHMOND and BUCKINGIIAM at their head, at
defiance, and resolved that a tax, the most unjust and
selfish that ever was inflicted on a community, shall
not long remain on the statute-book. They are not
alone in this resolve. Every town, and many coun-
ties too, throughout the country, join with them in
condemning this nefarious system of
propping up
bankrupt landowners by subscriptions from the poor.
Wit the exception of the interested parties, there is
not one man in the United Kingdom who supports
the present corn-law. It is an anomaly in the system
of legislation, and never, for one year, would have
been submitted to in any country but England go-
verned by the aristocracy, if we except the despotical
and barbarous governments of Russia and Turkey.
The corn-law was made only for one class. If
it were a fair tax, like most others—if a certain fixed
duty were paid on the importation of foreign grain,
there would be less grounds for complaint ; but it is
nothing, of the kind. It is a regular formed plan to
raise the price of food at all hazards, for,the benefit of
a particular class. Bread is now rising, to the sorrow
of thousands of poor families who before had scarcely
mearw,tv keep soul and body together, and at this
-Wfiends" rejoice ! Such meetings, how-
ever, as that whicktook place at Covent-garden last
night, will in timelVd in a short time too, have their
due effect. In thiicountry no act of legislation, no
combination of 'interested parties, no selfish
views supportetr- by the Minister of the day

TRIAL ofPEDRO _ph; ZULUETA;.theaCHARGE
OF SLAVE-TRADING. Wood, London, 1844.
• • In this thick,: closely printed octavo volume, we
have a full, and circumstantial account of a triaj which
took place some months since, and occasioned no
slight public sensation. The trial was that of M.
Zulueta," an eminent Spanish merchant, who was
charged with trafficing in slaves,_ and,- after &length-
ened investigation, Was acquitted pytlie jury; at the
October session of the Central Criminal Court, Old

Bailey. The report of this trial is taken froni the
short. hand notes of Mr. Gurney,, and is, therefore,
strictly authentic in its details.

WHITEFRIARS. 3 Vuls. Colburn,. London, 1844.
There is considerable talent in this novel, which
treats of an exciting period in English history—the
Popish plot and its unprincipled manufacturers, Oates
and. Dangerfield---and brings us into the company of
Charles the Second and his merry, profligate Court,
the patriotic Sidney, the wily Shaftesbury, and many:
of the most celebrated charaeters of that inglorious
age. The hero of the story is a young orphan named
Mervyn, who is afterwards discovered to be the ion,
n.f a nobleman of high rank and influence... Many of
the scenes in which he is engaged are pourtrayecl
with singular spirit ; end among them we may men-
tion his first interview and subiequent connexion
with the_ notorious Titus Oates—of whim Scott, it
may be remembered; has given us such a striking
,sketch Peverit of
,Peak"—his introduction
toColonel Blood, and to Charles the S econd,a nd Roches-
ter, and Buckingham, while carousing in disguise at a
IoW publie-house in Whitefriars ; and :his connexion
with the notorious highwayman, Claude Duval, who
cuts no unimportant figure in the narrative. The
author excels in description, and ,nowhere is this fa-
culty tUrned.to,better account than in his details of
the great fire of London._

ORANGE SOCIETIES (CANADA).
Mr. LEADER said that he had a question to put to the
Noble Lord, the Secretary for the Colonies. One of the pro-
vinces of Canada being Catholic, and the Catholic religion
being established in that province by statute, and cases of vio-
lence committed by Orange societies having occurred, a Bill
was passed during the last session of the provincial Parliament
for suppressing those Orange Societies, which Act was, he be-
lieved, little rtore than a transcript of one passed by the Impe-
rial Legislature. Sir Charles Metcalfe, the Governor, had re-
served his consent to that Act, and he (Mr. Leader) wished to
ask whether that reservation was approved of by the Govern-
latent, and whether the consent of the Government was to be
refused to that Act ?

Lord STANLEY said he had ascertained by inquiries that,
on the 9th of December last, Sir Charles Metcalfe did reserve
his consent to an Act for the suppression of those associations in
Canada. That Bill had not been transmitted to the Govern-
ment by Sir Charles Metcalfe, and not having any information
as to its contents, he could not answer the question of the Hon.
Gentleman.

Mr. LEADER said this was some time ago, and asked when
the Bill would al rive ?
Lord STANLEY said there had been one mail since the 9th
of December, by which Sir Charles Metcalfe might have trans-
mitted the Act ; but, in the circumstances in which he was
placed, it was not unreasonable to suppose that his time was
so occupied as to render it difficult, if not impossible, for him
to have transmitted it. No doubt in a short time he should re-
ceive it, but he did not think the omission of one mail formed
any great subject of complaint against the Governor.

NATIONAL LOAN FUND LIFE ASSUR-

Capital X 500,000.
Empowered by Act of Parliament.
The many novel and varied advantages bestowed by this Institu-
tion, both in its life assurance and deferred annuity departments, par-
ticularly the power to borrow two-thirds of premiums without ex-
pense or forfeiture—the great reduction of rates on short policies—
the option of selecting benefits and converting policies so as best to
suit the interest or necessity of the policy-holder during life, as well
as to afford the full benefit to his family at death, and annual division
of profits, have already been so well appreciated by the public, that
the Society's great success and growing prosperity enabled the Di-
rectors, at their General Meeting in May last, to add to each policy
on the profit scale a bonus averaging fifty-five per cent. on the
amount already invested ; and this bonus, according to an equitable
scale, may either be paid in cash, or applied in reduction of future
premiums

and without a law, arm the forts near Paris, or place artillery
or engineer corps in them ; and, moreover, that there shall

sixty leagues of the capital.
The editor of the France is to take his trial' before the

unfortunate family.

The great quanirity of snow which has fallen lately in Upper
13avaria and the Tyrol has greatly interrupted the communi-
cations in those parts, and the couriers have been considera-
bly retarded. Some thousaads of labourers are employed in
clearing the roads. The ordinary depth of the snow on the
Inspruck road is six feet, but in many places it is from 15 to
30 feet.

Both the French Chambers sat on Saturday, but the de-
bates are without interest. In the Deputies, the discussion
was resumed on the new Game Bill, which is encountering
great resistance from the Opposition, and is the theme of
many an angry article in the journals before us. On Monday
the bureaux of the Deputies were to examine the proposition
revived by the Opposition on the occasion of M. de Salvandy's
resignation, for declaring certain offices and promotions in-
compatible with a seat in the Chamber.

a patent, which was tried in the Common Pleas, the jury gave
a verdict for the'plaintiff.
In the new Central Criminal Court Thomas Seargent, aged
36, was indicted for embezzling and stealing various sums of
money to a considerable amount, the property of Messrs.
Thomas Tucker Modsell, Smith, and Co., his employers. There
were five indictments against the prisoner, on the first of
which he was acquitted, and convicted on the second. In
answer to a question from the judge, one of the prosecutors
said, that for some years they had lost from 1001. to WO/. a
year. The prisoner was sentenced to be transported for seven
years. It appeared that between 700/. and 800/. passed

r At Bow-sthet, Mr. Luke Winton, landlord of the Crooked

Billet, corner of Wych-street, Strand, waS summoned before
Mr. Jardine, charged with permitting persons of disorderly
andbad character knowingly to assemble in hishouse, against
the provisions of the Licensed Victuallers' Act, 9th Geo. IV.
An inspector named Logan gave evidence against the defen-
dant, but the Magistrate dismissed the charge on the ground
that there was no proof that the character of the parties
was known to the defendant or his waiter. The house from
all accounts was most respectably conducted.
At the Greenwich Police Court, John Roberts, master of
the schooner Waterford, of Weymouth, appeared to an in-
formation, at the instance of Richard Gowland, master of her
Majesty's Revenue cutter Vigilant, charged with having
on board two boxes of foreign cigars, and ten packages of
manufactured tobacco, the duties upon which had not
been paid. On the evidence of the master of the Revenue

imprisonment in the county gaol for six months.
A young man, of respectable appearance, named George
Wheldon, was charged at Worship-street, before Mr.

Broughton, with having attempted to defraud the Eastern
Counties Railway Company of seven shillings, being the
amount of fare for travelling in a first-class carriage from

Bishop Stortford to London: After an inspector on the rail-
way had given evidence in support of the charge, the de-
fendant said he had only come from Edmonton with a friend,
and they paid one shilling each, and on leavingthe station he
gave the ticket to an officer. He was arrested, however,
conveyed like a felon to the station-house, immured in a
damp cell until nearly three o'clock in the morning, when
some of his friends arrived and gave security for his-appear-
ance. Mr. Broughton called on the inspector to show the
authority under which he had acted. lie could show none,
and then went and consulted his superiors, who were in the
same predicament, and the defendant was instantly dis-
charged.

LONDON, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1844

Lord BROUGHAM gave notice that on Thursday
next he should bring under the notice of the House
of Lords the inventions of Lord DUNDONALD, and ad-
vert to the expenses he had been put to in bringing
them to perfection.
Lord STOURTON gave notice that on Friday he
would call the attention of their Lordships to the
mode in which Catholic oaths were interpreted.
The Marquis of NORMANBY brought forward his
motion on the State of Ireland, and justified the
course he had adopted, on the ground that all ad-
mitted the affairs of that country imperiously de-
manded the immediate attention of Parliament. The
conduct of the Government, instead of conciliating
the people, had been the very reverse, and it had
roused up against them many who were formerly
their supporters. After commenting on the
mistaken policy of the Government, with
respect to the cry for a repeal of the union, he said
the best way to repress the agitation was to remove
the grievances. With respect to the payment of the
Catholic clergy, he thought the present moment was
a:most unfortunate time for such a proposition. If the
clergy, too, were to be paid they should be paid an in-
come for religious duties, and not have a bribe for poli-
tical apostacy. After paying a high compliment to the
Irish nation for their domestic virtues, and their gra-
titude for the due administration of justice, he ad-
verted to the state of the franchise, to the character of
he Irish Attorney-General, and the egregious injus-
t ice and impolicy of excluding Catholics from juries,
and more especially that jury which had condemned
the traversers. The Noble Marquis concluded by
moving a resolution to the effect that the House would
ex amine into the cause of discontent prevailing in Ire-
land, in order to secure to all classes of her MAJESTY'S
subjects the practical enjoyment of equal rights.
Lord WHARNCLIFFE replied to the:charges brought
against the Government, and was followed by the
