ASHTON YATES; ESQ., of London :

That our deep and heartfelt thanks are due also to the Marquis of
Lansdowne, Lord Brougham, Lord Cotteuham, Lord Campbell, Lord
John Russell, and Lord Sandon, Mr. Macaulay, Mr. Shell, Mr. Ber-
nal, and Mr. Monekton Mihms, and to the other eminent men who
have given to this measure so much and such energetic support.

Moved by SAMUEL SMITH, Isq., of London ; seconded billoaAno
BOLINGBROKE, • ligq, of Norwich :

That we cannot but look on the marked concurrence of all
the great Statesmen and Lawyers of the day, in a measure
for the relief of a small and unpopular sect, and on the
determined disregard to the dictatorial and bigeted denunciations of
so many of their constituents, which 307 Members of the /louse of
Commons have shown in its support, as an animating proof that the
great principles of Civil and Religious Liberty are not retrograding
in this country, nor are likely to retrograde.
. . _

Moved by fll-011/1 RxrNoins,Esq.";of Bristol ; seconded by Jo-

!MPH DANT'. Esq., Of Exeter :--

That although it would be a disgrace to treat this measure as being,
In any degree, the victory of a sect, yet after all the foul aspersions
so unsparingly thrown on our ancestors and ourselves, for the mode
in which they and we have dealt with our religious and charitable
property, It Is with extreme delight we have heard the complete and
triumphant vindication which their acts and our own have at last
received from men unfettered by legal technicalities—unbiassed in
their position—and pre-eminently competent to judge upon the
question. MARK PHILIPS, Chairman.

THE BOAST OF THE LAND.

Don't wonder, good reader l nor take it amiss,
That we choose such a dignified subject as this;
'When once you arc told of the trade LI at is done
At the wonderful Warehouse of MOSES and SON,
You'll readily say that a title less grand
Must ne'er be bestow'd on the Boast of the Land."
Of all the fisn'd houses in country and town,
Not one has attain'd such a matchless renown.
Our praise has been sounded by ev'ry onn's mouth,
In the Est and the West, and the North and the South.
Our tame, like a blliner, is seen to expand,
Proclaiming to thousands " the Boast of the Land."
In beau'iful costumes we've " long borne the belle,"
For none can such elegant garments excel;
In cut and in fashion, in cloth and in make,
Thi3 clothing has beauties which few can partake;
And firm will the excellent workmanship stand,
When garments are bought at " the Boast of the Land."
'Tis this that has given to MOSES and SON,
Successes which no other houses have won.
'Tis that has gain'd them that matchless renowi,
Which sounds like a trumpet in country and town.
And 'tls that has gain'd them a title as grand,
As what they have chosen, " the Boast of the Land."

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
(YESTERDAY.)
BOW- S7'I?EET.

Thursday, after the hours of business, Mr. Jardine
was engaged a considerable time in the Magistrates'
private room investigating a charge preferred against a
young man of fashionable exterior, and a native of
I'oland, who is known by the title of Count Ostrowski,
for making use of violent and threatening language re-
specting the Emperor of Russia, to the effect that he
would assassinate his Majesty by shooting him the first
time he could have an opportunity. The offence was
committed at the house of the defendant's tailor, where
he had been to give an order for clothes, and the trades-
man's foreman apprehending that such violent threats
might be put into execution, proceeded to Scotland-
yard to apprise the proper authorities of the circum-
stance, in consequence of which the defendant was
speedily in the hands of the detective officers, at his
lodgings, 22, Mount-street, Grosvenor •square, dispensing
with the use of a warrant from the Magistrates for that
purpose. What answer the defendant made to such an
extraordinary charge has not transpired, as every means
were adopted to hush the matter and prevent its pub-
lication.

The defendant was ultimately ordered to put in bail,
himself in the sum of 500/., and two sureties in 2501.
each, for his future good behaviour ; and having no
means of communicating at so late an hour, it being
then about seven o'clock, he was conveyed iu a cab to
Tothill-fields prison for the night.
To-day Chevalier Benkhausen, the Russian Consul,
attended at the court, and had an interview with Mr.
Jardine, in private, upon the subject ; and after he had
gone some time, . _

Mr. Westmacott, a solicitor of Lincoln's-inn, waited
on the magistrate, on behalf of the defendant, and.having
submitted two names on paper, as sureties for his client,
the persons referred to were considered perfectly re-
sponsible, and three o'clock was named for their atten-
dance.

Mr. JARDINE directed Mace, the chief usher, to pro-
ceed to the prison and convey the defendant in a cab to
the court, which he did, and showed him again into the
magistrate's room. After a short delay, Mr. Skinner
arrived ; and Mr. Lamie Murray, the other surety,
being also present, the usual formalities were gone
through, and the defendant was liberated.
The defendant was said to be a man of independent
fortune, and holds, or has held, the rank of captain in
the French army.

FECT FAMILY CONVENIENCE.

Some idea of the size of the house may be afforded by the enu-
meration of the principal apartments, with which every portion of
the building is consistent. Drawing-room, 40 feet by 14 ; ante.
drawing-rosin, 30 feet by 20; billiard-room and vestibule, library
and museum, and dining-room. The external architectural form is
very chaste ; the front adorned by six lofty pillars, with a paved
gallery leading to the terrace walk, extending to the shrubberies
and plantations, which arc laid out in the best taste. The entree
is by a covered approach. Within the Mansion its advantages and
capability may be summed up in ens short sentence—

" NOTHING WHATEVER IS LEFT TO BE DESIRED."
To a Nobleman whose sphere of duties attaches him to the Court of
his Sovereign—to an East Indian seeking for an appropriate Resi
dence, in which to prolong his days in the enjoyment of his ♦ast
acquisitions, with increasing health, yet with Oriental magnificence—
or to a member of "THE ROYAL YACHT' SQUADRON," who
seeks to invite propinquity to the rendezvous, or the comforts of a
luxurious home, a residence is here offered combining advantages
not to be equalled in the neighbourhood.

AT LEATHERHEAD,

A DELIGHTFUL ABODE, IN THE CENTRE OF THE
TOWN, AND EXTENSIVE GARDENS AND GROUNDS
IN THE REAR, BEAUTIFULLY LAID OUT, AND A
PADDOCK OF THREE ACRES; THREE MILES FROM
EPSOM RACES.
MR. GEORGE ROBINS will SELL by
AUCTION, at the Mart, London, on THURSDAY, the
20th of June, at Twelve o'clock,
The admired FREEHOLD PROPERTY of the late
COLONEL SPICER, deceased.

It comprehends what has always been called "the Mansion," bui
it really does not pretend to such a mark of distinction. It as
A DELIGHTFUL VILLA ABODE,

with every accommodation for a snug family ; but, in accordance
with Mr. Robins's invariable practice, he must state that the hand
of an artiste, to renovate the interior, will be accounted essential,
and the
SPLENDID SCENE THAT OPENS IN THE REAR
is so perfectly beautiful that an ot.tlay of 2001. or 3001. will be
encountered without a murmur. The residence is in the centre of
the town, shut out from the public gaze by a full-grown plantation,
&c. It is full of comfort, and a gentleman whose income extends
to 1,000/. or 2,0001. a year will have no serious difficulty to en.
counter in distributing it at Leatherhead. The gardens and
grounds are disposed in unusually good taste; there is an undula.
lation throughout, that materially aids the landscape ; an English
and French garden; green houses ; plantations of luxuriant growth
and great beauty, adorned by a large fishpond, and extending to
THE RIVER MOLE,

full of fish ; and the enjoyment attained within this little demesne;
THE ROCK WORK, GROTTOS, AND SUMMER HOUSE
tend to vary and enliven the scene, and the lawn is resplendent in
shrubs and flowering plants, ornamented by a conservatory of some
extent; indeed,

CLERKENWELL.

Benjamin Beadle, a cab• driver, was charged with
cutting and wounding Jane Hughes, an unfortunate girl,
and also with an assault of a very aggravated character
on Police-constable Nott, G 29.

The prosecutor was sitting quietly in the Guy Earl of
Warwick public-house, in Gray's Inn-lane, between five
and six o'clock yesterday morning, when the prisoner
entered, and, after using some language of a very
rough and offensive description towards the complainant,
asked her to drink some gin and milk. She refused,
upon which the ruffian, without receivinc, further provo-
cation, flung the glass at her, and broke it to atoms on
her forehead. The unfortunate woman was dreadfully
mangled by the splinters of glass. She became in-
sensible, and bled profusely from the wounds. She ap-
peared in Court with her head bound up, and seemed to
be suffering considerable pain.
Another witness deposed that, immediately after the
girl fell from the blow of the glass, the prisoner seized a
pewter pint pot, and flung it at her head, but, fortu-
nately, it did not strike her. When the police were en-
deavouring to remove the prisoner to the cell, he sud-
denly threw himself on his back, and gave Nott such a
kick in a delicate part of his person that the officer al-
most fainted from pain, and he was still suffering from
the effects of it.

Mr. GREENWOOD said a case of greater brutality had
' seldom come before him. He would fine the prisoner
51., or two months' imprisonment, for the assault on the
female, and when the penalty had been paid, or the im•
prisonment suffered, the prisoner should be brought up
on the charge of assaulting the contable.
Police-constable 75 E was charged with a violation of
duty, and with assaulting Mr. C. J. Prentice, a shop-
keeper in Goswell-street-road.
The complainant and a number of others were return-
ing home from Hampton-court on Sunday night last
under the influence of liquor. They quarrelled in King's-
road. The constable was called upon, and, in endeavour-
ing to remove the complainant to the station-house
struck him with his truncheon, but not until the com-
plainant had struck the constable several times.
The complaint was dismissed.

Marquis would postpone his question till Thursday, when he
(the Duke of Richmond) should be enabled to lay a case of
considerable hardship before their Lordships.
The Marquis of NORMANBY said he would do so.

INDIA AND CHINA.

The intelligence brought by this mail from the
East is of the most satisfactory character. Peace,
and' tranquillity prevailed throughout the wittde,,:.
of the British possessions in India.- • The affairs of
Gwalior had been finally arranged to the satisfac-
tion. of. the Governor-General, the young Sovereign
had been formally ihstalled on the 20th of January,
in presence of Lord Ellenborough, the Commander-
in-Chief, and all the military and civil autho-
rities. On the 22d the army of Sindiah was
reviewed itt presence of the Maharajah and Chiefs,
and on the same day it was dissolved, by proclama-
tion, the troops composing it having been directed to
Proceed to the several destinations assigned to them.
The Mahratta soldiery, to the number of 20,000, had
laid dawn their arms and tendered their services to
the Sovereign of Gwalior. On the 23d Lord Ellen•
borough took his departure for Calcutta, accompanied
by General Grey and the left wing of the army. A
division was left behind until the new army should be
organised, and other arrangements completed. Sinde
was perfectly quiet, and the health of the troops
had materially improved. The Governor-General
had issued a proclamation announcing that an
augmentation of nearly 10,000 men would be re-
• r(luired, ostensibly for Sinde and Gwalior, but in
eality, We believe to watch the movements in the
,
euniaub. Some distuoteot had been exhibited in
two or three of the Bengal and Madras regiments,
who, it
appears, have a strong•reluctance to the ser-
%;ce in Sinde ; but no feeling of this kind prevailed in
the Bombay army, and several regiments had
volunteered their services for that district. But
matters there are so tranquil, and so content are the
people under the British sway, that troops are scarcely
required. There is, in fact, no enemy to encounter ;
but Sir CEIARLES NAPIER is wisely on his guard,
and will keep up such an army as will prevent any
plot or surprise on the part of the friends of the de-
posed Arneers. The accounts from China are equally
favourable, and
universal peace also reigns in that
quarter. We regret to state, however, that the
massacre of three Catholic bishops, with seventy

On Monday the King and Queen of the French, and-
her Royal Highness Madame Adelaide, visited Neuilly,
but returned to the 'I uileries to dinner. In the evening
their Majesties received the Ambassadors of Turkey,
Spain, and Sardinia, the Charge d'Affaires of Rus-
sia, the Ministers of Portugal, Brazil, and Tuscany,
the Pope's Nuncio, the Charge d'Affaires of the United
States, Lord Brougham, Marshals Soult and Valk,
Generals Desaix, Count de Monthion, de earninade, de
Latour-Maubourg, Merlin, Durieux, and Cavaignac,
Rear-Admiral Casy, and many other persons of dis-
tinction.
On Wednesday the motion for reducing the interest
on the Five per Cent. Stock was rejected in the Cham-
ber by a majority of 9.
The Univers states that twenty-nine archbishops and
bishops have already declared their adhesion to the
sentiments expressed by the Archbishop of Paris in his
reply to the Minister of Justice and Public Worship.
According to the anstitationnel, the Bishop of Chalons
has written to the Minister of Justice and Public Wor-
ship, stating that his letter to the Abbe Combalot was
not intended for publicity, and blaming severely those
persons who resort to the journals to embitter the diffe-
rences between the Clergy and the University.
The.banns of marriage between Baron Excelmans, the
son of the General, and Mdlle. Bertrand, were published
on Tuesday at the Mairie of the first Arrondissement.
The Princess de Canino, widow of Lucien Bonaparte,
has ma* a present to the Museum of Calais, her native
town, of the painting by Cot reggio called La Vierge ou
Bandeau. The Princess do Canino was born at Calais
in 1778. Her father, Charles de Blebchamp, was an
advocate of the Parliament, and receiver to the entrepot
of tobacco at Calais.
A meeting of the admirers of the writings of M. Casi-
mir Delavigne, in Paris, was held on Monday, to form
a Committee for raising a subscription in aid of that at
llavre, for erecting in that town, which was his native
ptico, a statue to his memory. M. Vatout was called to
the chair, to which he was considered to be peculiarly
entitled, from having been the first introducer of the
poet, in his youth, to the King, when he was Duke of
Orleans. His Majesty has himself opened the subscrip-
tion with a contribution of I,ooof.
During the last month, the amount of the deposits in

tors, of whom 3,576 made deposits fir the first time.

18. Because there have been many convictions for
bigamy in Ireland where the first marriage- was'
solemnised by a Presbyterian minister, although both
parties were not Dissenters, and the persons so
.con-,.
victed have been sentenced, to transportation, an
some of them are now: undergoing the punishment,
awarded to them.

19. Because the Noble and Learned Lords by whos
opinion this judgment is affirmed, admit that they are
obliged " to overrule authorities to which the greates
respect is due ;" all the recent authorities are .uni...-
fizmly in favour of the validity of the marriage in..
dispute ;—upon all questions it is desirable' that when.
the law has once been considered settled by judicial.
decision it should not be again disturbed ; and this is
particularly the case with respect to the law of mar•.
nage, for the sake of honourable women and innocent
children. CAMPBELL.

Slight alterations in Articles 47, 49, and 60.
" In Article 67, I propose to increase the salary
of the Deputies to 1,200 drachmas the session, or
300 drachmas a month, if they sit for part of the
session. I also advise a diminution of the number of
Deputies.
" I also propose to fix the number of Senators at
21, in lieu of 27, as a minimum. The eldest, to the
number of one-half the House, to receive 6,000
drachmas a-year." Also additions proposed to the
category of Senators.
The King concluded by thanking the Assembly for
its devotion to the Queen, and he desired some modi-
fication in the paragraph which contained the words,
" in case of minority, or absence of heirs."
He also called attention to " the great difficulty, if
not impossibility, of executing to the letter the decree
relative to public employes. By the rejection of so
many Greeks not included in its category, the judi-
cial service would be at once paralysed, so would the
consular," and would, besides other evils, entail
expense.
After discussing these royal recommendations, the
Assembly rejected the amendments proposed relative
to the Senate, as well as the last observation relative
to public employ, but accepted most of the others.
They presented their decision to the King by a de-
putation, of which Canaris was the chief. the King
replied :
" Mr. President,—l received the sketch of the con-
stitution which the Assembly laid before me. I
transmitted to that body the observations which I
thought proper to make 'on that sketch. Having this
day learned its final votes, relative to these observa-
tions, I hesitate not an instant in receiving them,
after having fulfilled my, duty in disclosing whatever
I had sincerely deemed would lead to the welfare of
the nation. •
" I conclude with praying that God may bless
the Constitution of the State.
(Signed)
" Athens, 4 (16) March, 1844."
The preceding message being read in the Assembly,
a most lively enthusiasm succeeded the discontent
which was observable on the face of every Greek
during the previous three days. General Grivas and
General Griziotis left the Assembly and proceeded to
the King's Palace, followed by more than 4,000 citi-
zens. On their arrival there, Grivas and Griziotis
were foremost in crying " Long live the Constitu-
tion," while the people echoed them. The King and
the Queen being in the balcony responded to those
acclamations most affectingly, after which they with-
drew amidst an universal joy.
The electoral law, consisting of fifty-five articles, is
now being discussed. Universal suffrage was adopted
the day before yesterday. It is hoped that on Sun-
day next the King will swear to the Constitution.
Tranquillity prevails throughout Greece. It appears
from provincial letters that the appointment of Sena-
tors for life has produced little impression.

MORTALITY TABLE.—The returns fur the week,
ending. Saturday 30th March, show a considerable
increase as compared with the previous week. In
the former the number was 1,080 and in the latter
981, making a difference of 99. The increase, how-
ever, is not material, as it is caused chiefly by acci-
dents, of which the results had not been stated in the
former_ returns. In all the specified causes of death
the amount with one or two exceptions is below the
average. There is a slight increase in the first class
including measles, pooping cough, scarlatina, and
croup, the number being 280, last week 190, ave-
rage 170. In diseases of the lungs there is a de-
crnraoegtaseeett9,

LONDON, FRIDAY, APRIL 5, 1844.

QUARTER'S REVENUE.

The returns of the revenue this year have been made
a day earlier than usual, owing to Good Friday falling
the sth of the month. They are, on the whole, satis-
factory. The Customs and the Exci,e, the two great
sources of revenue, show a considerable increase,

thereby evincing an improvement in trade and in the
comforts of the people. The total revenue for the
year is 50,396,977/. In the Customs there is an in-
crease of 658,335/. on the year, and an increase of
384,9101. on the quarter ; and for this the country is
probably indebted to the attention of the Government
being called to the nefarious robberies which have for
years been committed in that department. Next
year, when, we hope, the Commissioners of Customs
will be compelled to attend to their duty, we may
expect a still more favourahe result. In the Excise
the increase on the year is 474,6071., but the increase
on the quarter, as compared with the Customs, is
very small, being only 85,3161. On Stamps there is
a decrease in the year of 12,6991., and an increase on
the quarter of 45,8851. The Taxes show a decrease
of 73,0641. on the year, and an increase of 1,987/-
on the quarter. The increase in the Income-
tax for the year is 2,900,5991., and for the
quarter 107,627/. The Post-office also shows
a considerable increase, being 15,0001. for the
year, and 30,0001. for the quarter. This is a proof
of the briskness of trade, and we hope, also of the de-
sire of the Post-office authorities to carry out the
penny postage system in accordance with the original
plan. Much, however, yet remains to be done to
render justice to this great improvement in all the re-
lations of commercial and private intercourse ; and the
public would rejoice to see Lord LONSDALE, or any
other public officer who may be at the head of the
establishment, direct his attention, not so much to
revenue or the convenience of, the individuals under
him, as to the great interests of the public. In the
MisCellaneous, there is an increase of 336,7031. on the
year, and a decrease of 500,2641. on the quarter,
caused, no doubt, by the want of Sycee silver, but
next quarter will probably show a different return
another instalment from the Celestial Empire will
restore the balance. The total increase for the year
is 4,700,6691., for the quarter 825,2981., and taking
the decrease into account, there remains an increase
in the year of 4,3181,167/., and on the quarter of
325,034/. The total amount for the Post-office during
the year is 622,000/. On the whole, these returns
hold out bright prospects, and taking into account the
revival of trade, and the reduction of the Three-and-
a-Half per Cents, the public may look forward with
some hope to the abolition of the Income-tax.

THE HAGUE, APRIL 3.--The Staats Courant of
this date contains the following '

" PROCLAMATION.
" We, William 11., by the grace of God, King of
the Netherlands, Prince of Orange-Nassau, Grand
Duke of Luxemburg, &c., &c.
"'Looking up gratefully to God, we address these
words to you, beloved fellow-countrymen and sub-
jects, to express to you our most heartfelt gratitude
for your united co-operation in effecting the volun-
tary loan. The rich and the less opulent have the
greatest claim to it, but those also, and how many are
they, who though totally exempt, yet animated by
the noblest feeling, have offered their savings on the
altar of their country.
" Fellow-countrymen,---The motto of our fathers,
" Concord is power," is !again realised among us.
Attachment to the old Dutch fidelity in fulfilling, at
whatever price, every engagement. We may hope
that a blessing, will rest on this fidelity. Let every
one who has contributed to the prospect before us,
enjoy the pleasure of consciousness of having done his
duty.
" Netherlands—Let us pray to God, to pre-
serve and increase the good spirit by which the
nation has now again proved itself to be animated,
that remote posterity may enjoy the fruits, and that
the people of the Netherlands may continue to be a
patriotic, unanimous, and. religious nation.
" Herewith, beloved fellow-countrymen and sub-
jects, we recommend you all to God's holy keeping.
"This proclamation shall be immediately published
and posted up in the usual places, and printed in the
Staats Courant.
" Given at the Hague, 2d April, 1844.
(Signed) " WILLIAM.
" By his Majesty's command,
" The Director of the King's Cabinet,
"A. G. M. VAN RA.PPARD."

" The Minister of 'Finance, conformably to
Art. 19. of the Law of tile' 6th of March, 1844, in-
forms the public in general; that the inscriptidn of
the loan and voluntary contribution (30 florins of the
latter being reckoned for 100 florins in the loan)
amount to 127,000p0 florins, and that therefore
the extraordinary tax on property will not take
place.
" The result has .been obtained by an addition to
the King's original share, after the inscription
amounted to about 126,000,000.

—The Staats Courant, April 3.
THE HAGUE, APRIL 2.—The Law of the 6th of
March has raised Holland from a crisis, the fatal con-
sequence of which might have been incalculable. This
law has consolidated our credit abroad, has restored
confidence at_home, and removed obstacles which pre-
vented the Government from proceeding with calm-
ness and firmness in the course of improvement and
economy. Accordingly the Arnheim Courant pro-
poposes to open a subscription, in order to strike a
medal in honour—of whom do 2-1 u suppose ?—of two
of the Members of the States-General, who voted
against the law ! Can we wonder, after this, if the
public treat certain Governments with eontemPt ?
