LONDON. FRIDAY, APRIL 12, 1844.

LATER FROM the UNITED STATES.
LIVERPOOL, THURSDAY MORNING.
The fast-sailing ship St. George, Captain FERRIS,
arrived here early this morning, having left New
York on the 24thult. (Sunday). By her we have
received papers one day later than thosa received per
Bottinguer.
The weather continues of the most mild descrip-
tion and the inland navigation was almost entirely
sat
free from frost. The New York market was
'lather quiet for domestic goods, and in cotton there
%Ins only a limited business done in
the 23d. The
Stock market was reported to be in a feverish state,
;_bough prices were rather better. The rate of ex-
: choice had also sightly improvedi bills of first class
'on London being quoted 108, and on Paris 51. 32c.
The Senate had at length come to a vote upon the
Vol . resolution to give Great Britain notice of
the discontinuance of mutual occupancy of the Oregon
tfrritory. On the 22d, after a long and able speech
from _Mr. SISYIER, the vote was taken, and the re-
sult Was, Ayes 19, Noes 28, so the notice was re-
jected. On the division three Southern democratic
senators, supposed to be in favour of the annexation
of 'Texas, voted against the friends of the Oregon.
This, it is probable, will cause a retaliation by gentle-
then from the West, when the Texian Treaty is brought
forward, and their united force, it is said, be
, suf-
ficient to negative it. They
,also threaten to vote
against the New Tariff Bill ; in f`Nt, their exaspera-
tion against Messrs. INI‘DurFIE, Havwoon, and
HUGER, who are the gentlemen alluded to, is most
violent. There were other motions before the Senate,

stances being equal, the most powerful for gi)od
or for evil.; it is riot, however, the possession of
power that makes the happiness of the nation
or the individual, but its proper use. "To be
weak is miserable." A weak nation must be a
wretched nation ; but a powerful nation is not neces-
sarily a happy one. The happiest country is that
which is rich, and in which wealth is distribtited
with the nearest approach to equality that the pre-
servation of order and the security of all men's
rights will permit. The sacredness of the rights
of property must for ever prohibit the inter-
ference of the State to produce this equality by active
or direct means ; but nevertheless, though no Legis-
lature can properly interfere to correct the inequality
in the distribution of wealth, the means of preventing
that ir.equality growing to be an intolerable. evil
are not beyond the reach of bold and wise
statesmen. There is no doubt much to undo, for
nearly all the legislation of the last half century,
down to the New Poor-law, has gone in the wrong
direction—has gone to make the rich richer and the
pool poorer, until at last morality and common sense
have been outraged by an arrogant claim, boldly
asserted, for " the rights of capital," a phrase which,
if it means anything, can only mean the right of the
rich to profit at their own discretion by the privation,
the extended labour, and the sufferings of those who
are not rich.

FOItEIGN.

The King and Queen of the French, on Monday, ac-
companied by Generals Athalin and Rumigny, visited
Neuilly, but returned to the Tuilleries to dinner. In the
evening their Majesties received the Belgian Ambas-
sador and the Princess de Ligne, Rear-Admiral Laplace,
Generals Jamin, Marquis Oudinot, and many other per-
sons of distinction. It is rumoured that there will be
many promotions in the army on the occasion of the
King's Le-day.
General Gourgaud, it is said, will, in a short time, pro-
ceed to London on a special mission from the King to
Queen Victoria.
Mdlle. Guizot, daughter of the Minister of Foreign
Affairs, is convalescent.
Prince Demetrius Galitzin, a General in the service of
the Emperor of Russia, and Governor-General of Mos-
cow, died on Monday, in Paris, of a painful disease, re-
specting which he came to consult the first physicians
here. The Prince was in his 63d year.
On the same day, the Polish refugees at Paris assem-
bled at the Hotel Lambert, the residence of Prince Czar-
toriski, to celebrate Easter. The repast was served up
in the Grand Gallery: Upwards of 500 persons were
present on this occasion, amongst whom were the Bel-
gian Ambassador and the Princess de Ligne, Count de
Rambuteau, Baron and Baroness Desmichels, Prince and
Princess de Beauveau, &c. The Archbishop of Paris,
accompanied by all the Polish clergy in the capital, came
to give his benediction to the paschal repast. The so-
lemnity can be traced back to the ancient Kings of
Poland of the Jagellone race, from whom Prince Czar-
toriski is descended.
A Berlin letter, of the 31st ult., quoted by the Inde-
pendence of Brussels, states that the King of Hanover is

On Saturday evening their Majesties received the
Neapolitan Ambassador, the Wurtemberg and Danish
Ministers, the Chancellor of France, the Duke and
Duchess Decazes, the Duke d'Elchingen, the Duke de
Bauffrenaont, the Marquis and Marchioness de Laplace,
the Counts de Salvandy and de Montesquiou, the
Viscounts Duh?sme and Decazes, Baron de la Coste, the
Prefect of the Seine, General de Laplace.
The Moniteur Parisien announces that the Count de
Sartiges, second secretary of the French Embassy at
Constantinople, has just been charges by the French
Government with a temporary mission in Persia.
" it is stated," says the Gazette de France, " that the
Committee on the budget has called upon the Minister
of the Finances to complete the negotiation for, the loan
of 300,000,0001."
The Courrier Francais mentions a report that the
Duke de Montpensier, who is now a captain of artillery,
is to be promoted to the rank of Chef d Escadron on his
return from Africa, in recompense of the bravery which
he exhibited at the Ziban.

General itoncali is at Valencia, where he has released
several of the prisoners confined on charges of a poli-
tical nature. His mercy, however, appears to have
been limited to those against whom it was impossible to
bring home any charges, and though guiltless of all
political affairs, have been arbitrarily left fOr months to
lan2nish in prison.
On the Ist of the month a strange event took place at
Hurley (Marne), A small farmer, named Champenois,
after having ploughed and sown one of his fields with
oats, proceeded on his way to his own house. When
about 400 n.i.res distant he took off the reins of his
horse, and having fixed one end round his neck, he tied
the other to the hinder part of his plo.agh. He they
whipped his horse into a gallop, and was thus dragged to
the vilize. The horse was at la-t stopped by some of
the inhabitants, %ho cut the rein, but it was too late, the
man seas strangled._ _

LONDON, THURSDAY, JUN F 20, 1844.

The disQuSsions in the Commons last evening were
brief, but full of 'interest. They showed the utter
helplessness of the Conservative Government in that
State NVIliCh is vulgarly supposed to represent the
interests of the peole. On the order of the day being
moved, by Mr. S. O'BRIEN, for the House going into
Committee on • the Vestries in Churches Bill, Mr.
litmr. moved that it be committed that day six months.
Sir JAMES GRAHAM was in favour of the Bill, and
Mr. T. DUNCOMBE thought that circumstance the best
argument against it, as everything the Right Hon.
Baronet touched was doomed to ruin. The effect of
the. protection afforded by Sir JAMES GRAHAM was
like that of the upas tree—it poisoned all it reached.
On a division, there was a Majority of 14 for going
into Committee.

Mr. I lumn, on this result, moved the adjournment
of the House. An amusing discussion followed, for
which \le refer to the report. Sir It. PEEL and the
'OLlre.i FOE -GEN ER AL spoke in support of the Bill,
though they admitted some amendments would be
necessary. Another division took place, on- Mr.
Humes motion, which was rejected by a majority
of 8.

On Mr. Hymn intimating that he would move
adjournment on adjournment, Mr. O'BRIEN moved
that the House adjourn, when, according to the
report, there was a roar of " ayes," and the House
broke up, amidst shouts of laughter, at Seven o'clock.

. At the usual weekly meeting of the Anti-corn-law
League, which took place yesterday evening in Co-
ient-garfien Theatre, Mr. COBDEN, alluding to the
approaching debate in the House of Commons on the
bread-tax, observed :—" Before we meet again in
this place fir the promotion of the objects of free
trade, our friend .Mr. VILLIERS will have submitted I
this question to the consideration and decision of
Parliament. I will not now stay to inquire as to the
probable manner in which the Members of the House
nifty treat that motion ; it is sufficient for us to know
that, after their election to Parliament for the pur-
pose., of upholding and continuing monopoly, the rank
and file of the monopelists, who think it right to
sacrifice„ every interest of the. .country....to . their
own, aro not likely to make any concessions

We have received from Doullens, says the National, a long
letter announcing the death of Jouve, one of the political
prisoners, who has sunk under a frightful disease of the chest
caught in the central prisons in which he was at first placed.
Jouve was sentenced to five years' imprisonment as an ac-
complice in the pretended Republican conspiracy at Mar-
seilles. He was first sent to Aix, next to Embrun, and
thence into the prisons of the department of the Nord. When
he was first confined he was i robust health, but the regimen
he has undergone has killed him in less than three years. lie
is the fourth who has fallen under the same disease—viz.,
Jeanne in 1837, Mirey iu 1839, Buisson in 1843, and now
Jouve in 1844. These victims are to be added to those of
Mont St. Michel.

A letter from Alexandria, of May 25, in the Presse, says :
" The Viceroy is about to send to Paris Hussein Bey, his
third son, and Achmet Bey, the eldest of lbraham Pacha's
children. The two young Princes are of about the same age
(18 years). Hussein Bey has already, in Egypt, been a pupil
of the cavalry school, and he will continue to follow in Franc•
the studies connected with that branch of the service. Ach-
met Bay is destined for the artillery.
On the Ist inst., the King of Naples had a narrow escape.

silk, value 12/. 17s. the property of James M'Gill, in the
dwelling•house of J. Hunt, on Monday, the the 10th instant.
Runnustman pleaded Guilty. Lowenthall addressed the jury
in French, with great vehemence. He denied that he was a
participator in the robbery, and he completely exonerated
participator in the robbery, and he completely exoneratid
Guhishalk, as did also the prisoner who had pleaded guilty.
All were acquitted except Runnustman, who was sentenced to
six months' hard labour.

EMPLOYMENT OF *NATIVE LNDIANS.

On the nmtion of Mr. SULLIVAN. the clerk read the peti-
tition of native inhabitants of Calcutta, dated April 18,
1843; and presented at the General Court of the 20th of
March last.

The Hox. PROPRIETOR then
_proCeeded to call attention
to • the subject. of the petition. He 'said the matter had been
so fully discussed on former occasions, that it was not neces-
sary that he should go into it at any great. length. Sir John
Monroe had given it as his opinion that justice and sound
pulley alike required that the nativesef India should be en-
trusted with a larger share of power than they at present pos-
sessed. It was not necessary for him to prove that the
natives were qualified to, exercise elie.fuOtions of civil admi-
nistration, for. it was well known that they had already exer-
cised them in the most beneficial manner. . The whole
original civil • jurisdiction of India was at that moment
in the hands of the natives ; and all causes, whatever the_
sarpOint at stake, or wh§ever miglithe the parties concerned,
were in the, first instance decided by them. Datives had
been recently appointed deputy magistrates in Bengal, but
that- had been done by the creation of new places.
:It was impossible, under the present system, to
maintain the European establishment, and employ, at
the same time a sufficient number of natives. Either the
situations of the natives must be suppressed, or the salaries
cf the Europeans must be reduced. A further reduction of
the salaries of Europeans, was fraught with the most mis,
chievous consequences. The finances exhibited increasing
charges, and a stationary revenue. The Hon. Proprietor
then went into a statement of the finances, from 1838
doss4n to'the latest returns. The increase of expense had not
been attended with increased efficiency in the civil adminise
tration. ;It was the declared opinion of Lord William'
Bentinck that notwithstanding the immense expendi-
ture which had taken place, every part of the Indian
administration was a failure, and in this opinion he believed
Sir Charles Metcalfe and many other eminent men entirely
concurred. The remedy for thisstate of things we:: an in,
creased employment of the native population. There were
many reasons which should induce them to give their serious
consideration to. that subject. They should recollect
the impoverishment of many of the great faratz;
lies of India, and the large drain, amou];`,..og now
to about three millions annually. f2,`. Indian resources.
The native states would misr—soon be absorbed in
the English empira, and there would then be ex-
hibited a state of things wholly unprecedented 14 ti
history of the world. In all conquests, the oontinerora had
studiously identified themselves with the country of which
they had obtained possession ; but the very first act of
those who had resided and made a fortune in India, was
.to free themselves from alt connexion with it as soon aspos-
sible. The Hon. Proprietor concluded by moving fox certain

LONDON, THURSDAY, JUNE 20, 1844.

. The disciussions in the Commons last evening were
Wet; but full of interest. They showed the utter
helplessness of the Conservative Government in that
State which is vulgarly supposed to represent the
interests of the peole. On the order of the day being
moved, by Mr. S. O'BRIEN, for the House going into
Commit4ee on the Vestries in Churches Bill, Mr.
Rusta moved that it be committed that day six months.
Sir JAMES GRAHAM was in favour of the Bill, and
IA: T. DUNCOMBE thought that circumstance the best
:argument against it, as everything the Right Hon.
313aronet touched was doomed to ruin. The effect of
-the protection afforded by Sir JAMES GRAHAM was
like that. of the upas tree—it poisoned all it reached.
On a division, there was a majority of 14 for going
into. Committee.

llumE, on this result, moved the adjournment

SOLICITOR-GENEBAL spoke in support of the Bill,
though they admitted .some amendments would be
necessary. Another division took place; on Air.

of 8.

On Mr. HuuE intimating that he would mov e.

Currie, Rideout, Forbes, Connelly, Hope, and many other
gallant officers, with a large party of ladies. The chairman,
Sir Charles Ogle, paid a high compliment to the master, for
the satisfactory state in which he had found the school, and
the scholars having given three hearty cheers for the Presi-
dent and the Rev. Dr. Chambers, the head-master, the as-
semblage dispersed.

At a meeting of the Repeal Association held in Dublin on
Monday, the following resolution was adopted :—" Resolved,
that an article having appeared in the Limerick Reporter,
whereby it might be inferred that there was a recommenda-
tion to the people to purchase arms, and to enter upon a
system of passive resistance to rent, the Association feel
themselves bound to declare their strong disapprobation of
these suggestions, and to reiterate their often-repeated decla-
ration, that they seek success in their present struggle solely
by moral and legal means, and without the spilling of blood
or the infliction of any injury to any man." The rent for

DROPPED ORDERS.

The dropped notices of motion and the dropped orders
of the day were then re-appointed.
POOR-LAWS.

Mr. P. BORTHWICK, in answer to a question from
Mr. Pechell, stated that if the Government did not pro-
ceed with the Poor-law Amendment Bill that they had
introduced, be should go on with his.
COUNTY COURTS BILL (DUCHY OF LAN-
CASTER).
On the motion of Lord GRANVILLE SOMERSET,
the further consideration of this Bill was postponed for
fortnight.
VESTRIES IN CHURCHES BILL.

On the motion for going into Committee on this Bill,
Mr. HUME stated that it was important that the House
should know the nature of the Bill, because, unless made
acquainted with it, they ought at once to reject the
measure. If the Bill passed, the ordinary business of the
church would be prevented from taking place in it.
The best way to avoid the repetition of such scenes was
to do away with church rates altogether.—(Cheers.) As
long as the Dissenters were called on to pay church-
rates they had a right to attend these meetings and to
vote. If they would excuse Dissenters from church-rates

BANK CHARTER

Mr. WODEHOUSE was understood to give
notice of an amendment to the third clause or the
Bank Charter Bill; but its precise nature was not
heard in the gallery.
• JOINT-STOCK. BANKS.
Mr. MASTERMAN asked the Right Hon. the
President of the Board of Trade whether the Act for
the regulation of joint-stock banks was intended to
haVe a retrospective effect on the joint-stock banks
already in existence.
Mr. GL A.DSTONE said the question was one of
considerable importance; but he had not had the op-
portunity of referring to the Acts ; still he would give
the Hon. Gentleman as clear an answer as he could.
The question was whether, in the Bill before Parlia-
ment for the regulation of joint-stoA banks, it was
intended to apply them to the banks at present
in operation. He might state that it was not
intended to apply the Bill to those joint-stock
banks at present in operation, except with respect to
registration, unless the parties-having the direction of
the company should conceive it to be their interest to
place themselves under the provisions of the Bill ;
there were powers in the Act which would enable
them to do so. The Government had thought it
right fully to recognise all the privileges that were
secured to these banks up to the passing of the
Act, but with respect to companies formed since
the introduction of the Bill and before it should be
passed, it might be a question whether it would not
be advisable tolbring them under the operation of the
Bill.
