SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS•

(FROM THE TIMES.)
A letter from Dr. Doyle (the Catholic Bishop.)
W the puke of 'Wellington,' which we publish, on
the subject of securities against the dangers to be:
appreheiided from emancipation, appears at a time
which adds double interest to such an address, and,
we nnist add, that the address itself is such as would
be highly interesting at any period. Dr. Doyle
divides the dangers which are most dwelt upon by
the anti-Catholics, as likely to proceed from the in-.
fluence of the Church of Rome upon this ProteF,
taut
:State alter the present restrictive laws shall
have been abolished into-Ist, those created by the
influence of the Holy See over.the Irish clergy ; and
2d, those arising from the influence of the Irish
clergy over the laity of their own persuasion. These
dangers, being in their nature distinct, ought
according to Dr. Doyle, to be met by different re-
medies; and in- treatingof theM successively,
comes, in substance,. to the following conclusion :
that the Pope's power in spiritual concerns, might
he transferred • to one or more Irish Catholic Bi-
shops, " selected by: the Pope, • and approved of
by
the Government" • N. That the beat security
against any noxious power to be exercised by the

Doyle, and with ever.* enligh;o"'l Pmtest"t
who has written or spokotb question, on
that the best of all securiLies agFri"bt the

regard to collateral or supplementary
se6:rities, if
any such be sought, through a change -in the mode
of appointing the higher dignitaries of. the ..:;,tti?otic
church, or of maintaining the great .bodY Of the
clergy, we feel that the anxieties of the ProtestaCts
of this country-would not be appeased by any thing
short of at least a negative in the Crown, on the
appointment, not merely of-that Bishop or those
Bishops to whom the Pope was, under Dr. Doyle's
above-mentioned proposition, to transfer his power,
hat en the nomination of each and every Prelate,
lr.:ver elected or by whom. It is sufficiently
clear to !I'S, that with a disaffected people, all such
precautions vtould be fruitless, and with a people
welt governed and contented, that they would be
equally unnecessary. But we are now speaking of
what may tend to a practical mitigation of prejudices
and adjustment of difficulties ; and to those ends we
ore of opinion that Dr. Doyle will be accused of
having dome little more than claim for himself or his
brother Bishops the undivided spoils of the Holy
Ste/ without permitting the State itself, to which
he tenders the whole inosaction as a professed se-
curity, to come in fur tSe smallest share of them.
The provision for the Catholic e.:,?rgY, we imagine,
would not be found to occasion arty- s:rions embar-

rassment to the Legislature, or to regoitz arrange-
ments incompatible with the pastoral dtitiei; of the
Reverend Gentlemen, disparaging- to their dignity,
or burdensome to the State.

(FROM THE NEW TOTES.)

Mr. Stanley indulged in what seemed to him
very ttesponding view of the character and inten-
tions of the present Ministry, in his speech on the
East Retford Bill last Friday. Ile feared lest the
liberal system of prdicy, under which the commer-
cial and• agricultural interests of the country have
been enjoying such enlightened misery for the last
four or five years, should be abandoned, and the
nation should fall back into the ignorance and pros-
perity of our ancestor*. His inferences rested
chiefly on the warmth of congratulation with which
the Duke of Wellington's Administration had been
hailed by those who were opposed to that system,
especially since its authors and abettors had ba-
nished themselves from the Cabinet. We confess
we do not sympathise in Mr. Stanley's despondency.
We! are doll enough to think that in great political
questions, " time and the hour" are a much bett4
test than mere abstract reasoning; and if ever there
existed one in which the event has belied the pre-
mises, if not the anticipations, of hint who first raised
it, it is this same question of free trade. It was,
indeed, impossible it could have been otherwise.—
The whole arrangement end details of the free trade
system, as exemplified in the measures of Mr
..
littskissent, proceed on one printiple, the most ut-
terly false and hollow that was ever ,adopted by a
practical statesman. This principle is, " that we
ought to encourage competition in our own market
between the Foreign Merchant 'and the British."
We repeat it, that a more misehievous principle was
never acted upon. It is this which has inundated
us with foreign silks—it is this which is pouringintrt
our markets foreign gloves—it is- thin which Imo
taken the bread out of the mouths of the poor miners
of Leadhills—it is this which is ruining ou; store
farmers by the importation of Continental wools—
and it is this, which had it not been met and pre-
vented, would have ruined our grain farmers by the
introduction of the wheats of the Continent. To
freedom of trade, in the only sense in which it ought
to be tared, previous at least to the year 1860, when,
according to Mr. Irving, the Millenium is to com-
mence, we are by 110 means hostile. On the eon •
hrarv, we are its warmest friends. Whatever
restrictions have at any time been imposed on
s
our domestic industry, whether from a
re-
pressw t

taken
it, we would )Fish firseue crleesmiroevetdo

letits Importation be free. Whatever produce of kind
we possess the means of creating, let that alai Al
analogous produce be excluded from our ports.
Here are three plain rules of free trade—liee, we;
mean, as regards ourselves, the only ones that a
Statesman of common sense would seek to attain,
and the only ones that are not practically hurtful.—
Let us see how Mr. Huskisson and those who think
with Mr. Huskisson have acted in regard to these
rules. We shall select but one or two instances.
We have, perhaps we should rather say we had, u.
silk trade. We will not stop to consider how fin
the first encouragement bestowed on the industrious
inhabitants of Spitalfields was proper ? We
think it was. We have more ample materials
in our mills, our roads, our canals, our ingenious
handicraftsmen, for manufiteture, than any spot on
earth, and all these are now augmented ten-fold
by the steam engine and the command over it
which our coal mines give us. 'Weighed against
such advantages, the trasport of materials from the
farthest corner of the earth is but as dust in the ba-
lance. But it is unnecessary to argue the point ; it is
sufficient that we had the manufacture; that thou-
sands depended upon it, and tens of thousands of
capital were invested in it. What did the free-

workmen too high profits ? That was impossible; the
workmen could be overpaid; they had no Corpora-
to keep down their numbers. What.
then was to result from the introduction of foreign
goods ? Either the prices of silk were to remain or
they were to fall. If the former, of what use was
the change ? If the latter, where was the wisdom in
ruining our own workmen to feed the workmen of
Lyons ? Take another instance of a different
kind. Great Britain is eminently a pastoral coon-
ay.—Look to Wales, look to Scotland. The
climate is admirably adapted for the growth
of wool—not too warm, nor over cold. Ac-
cardiogly, from time immemorial wool has been our
staple. It might have been so to time immemorial
had not Mr. Huskisson had a dislike to all thing;
that were old. The foreigner, thcrefme, must be
let ie upon us there also, and wool must be our
staple no longer. Agate, we ask, what advantage

was to flow (min thi:; ? Wel there any fabric that
we did not possess the means of furnishing ? If
there vms, what proportion (lid it bear to thoi.e of
whlci", we had the means ? Was it just to hazard
ow: whole trade because forsooth a Cashmere shawl-
could not be woven out of d South Down fleece ?
If it be granted that for particular purposes a small
quantity of a finer kind of wool than we could easily pro-
duce, was required, why was not the importation
limited to that kind 9 But no—tire system of free
trade demanded that foreigners, whose end and aim
.--and most naturally, we blame them net—was to
destroy our traffic in that branch, and in all branches,
:-.hould be treated on the same terms as Englishmen.
Mini:able and disinterested policy ! And this is
the system that Mr. Stanley so fondly clings to—
this is the idol whose fall he so much deprecate!!!
We wish to Heaven it were fallen as wholly and
utterly as its mistaken advocates are.

(FRO.M THE MORNING HERALD.)

Mr. Peel's plan for the more cheap and expedi-
tious recovery of small debts has been thwarted in
its progress, as we suspected it would be, by the
claims for compensation of persons holding what are
called patent places in the present Courts of Law.
As most of these places are mere sinecures, and their
emoluments wrung from individual distress—entail-
ing too, as they do in the instance before us, an ac-
tual denial of justice—it would be well if they were
at once put an end to, by the country purelasing
existing interests, and abolishing the:n for the future.
At the same time that we would respect these
" vested interests," as far a., they are reasonably en-
titled to respect, it is carrying their claims much too
far to allow them to set up a sort of Royal road to
justice, and tellir,g Parliament and the public that
they shall ni.A, travel any shorter road, or by any
cheaper ce:aveyance, till the fares by these patent
stages o're paid as well. Suppose that, owing to a
better Bench, a better Bar, or from various other
causes, business should leave one or more of the
Cc,erts in which some of these patentees exist, and
betake itself to the one possessing such ativanta',ree,
would it be pretended that the patentees in the de-
serted Courts are entitled to be indemnified by the
public for the diminution of fees which they mast
suffer on that account ? Or suppose that, either by
abolishing arrest for debt, or by a distaste for litiga-
tion—lawsuits cliniinish—as we trust they one day
will—are the public to be celled upon to pay these
people for not going to law, the same as if they did ?
In fact, this grasping rapacity of sinecurists of the
worst description has become an abominable nui-
sance, and will, if they carry it too far, outshoot its
own mark. We are far from wishing to see injus-
tice done to any man, and still more unwilling are we
to see tkc avenues to common justice to every man
obstructed by impediments which ought to he swept
away; and we do therefore hope that Mr. Peel, who
has reaped immortal honour by the reforms he has
effected in the law, will riot allow his career to he
stopped by such ob,:tacles as these, but that he AVIII
man fully rernOV'J them, either by reasonable compen-
sation, whet they have any fair claim to it, or by
leaving them to the uncertainty which must have
ever accompanied their tenure.

(FROM THE MORNING ADVERTISER.)

A great number of persons have been examined
before the Committee appointed by the House of
Commons, to inquire into the state of the Police of
the Metropolis, from whom much valuable informa-
tion has been received. We trust, however, that it
will he acted upon, and not neglected in the same
manner as the report of a former Committee which
sat on the same subject. The signals exhibited in
the front of shops, denominated fences, notifyiug, iii
all but plain terms, that all sorts of stolen goods arc
purchased within, were exposed by the former re-
port, and in consequence disappeared; but they are
now publicly displayed, as a hire and an encourage-
ment to thieves of all descriptions and ages, where
the robbers and receivers carry on their fraudulent
traffic in open day. The receivers are the great
source of evil, and as these villains are multiplying
daily, crimes increase of course, and the metropolis
swarms with juvenile offenders, who can dispose
of stolen property not only with facility and with-
out fear, but who are encouraged rby the re-
ceivers to continue their criminal career. The
Committee, from the information. they have re-
ceived, will, it is hoped, recommend some strong
measures to wadi the receivers, who manage
their business with so much dexterity that they bid
defiance to the officers of police, Nvith their pre-
sent limited powers ; for while a search-warrant is
piocioieg, the stolen property is removed beyond
their reach. Dealers in certain miscellaneous
articles, which in general constitute fence-shops,
should be placed on a different footing from what
they are at present; the proprietors 511001(1 be
obliged to take out a license, and enter all articles
they purchase in a book kept for the purpose, and
liable to the inspection of any officer appointed to
examine the same by the Magistrates : and in case
of tailing to make such entry, to be liable to a heavy
penalty. This would. be a great check to the re-
ceiving of stolen goods, and a protection in a certain
degree to the public. It might be considered a
hardship by the parties—but they would have the
option, whether they thought fit or not to commence
or carry on a business subject to such regulations.
Plunder to the amount of thousands of pounds a
year in the simple article of pewter pots alone, is
purchased by well known common receivers of
stolen goods in the metropolis. When to this is
added the produce of other robberies disposed of in
the same manner daily, the necessity of some strong
law to detect receivers is so obvious as to require no
Caliber comment.

SUNDAY PAPERS.

(FROM THE NEWS.).
.A PEW OF THE CAUSES OF THE UNEOEULATITY OF THE

cuutteti CLEM: V.

The Rector of St. Clements, Hastings, has succeeded in
setting aside the verdict obtained against him for break-
ing into a vault (which vault, it appears, he sold for 20/.)
en the ground that he (the Rector) had no authority to
make the sale. Mr. Justice Bayley, in delivering his
opinion, expressed his regret that, after this line of ar-
gutrieut had been taken, the Rev. Gentleman should still
ictaia the 20/.—Brighton Gazette of Thursday.

While it will be admitted on all sides that the
English Episcopal Church is practically the most
tolerant Church in the world (for though she rejects
the claims of the Catholics, she demeans herself to-
wards them, in the actual intercourse of society, as
though there were no invidious line of distinction
drawn around them) and while there is not perhaps
any class of Dissenters in the kingdom that would
willing to transfer the power of the present Esta-
blishment to any sect within the circle of noncon-
fin mitt',—it must be confessed tl,.at .the occasional
conduct of some of the Reverend Gentlemen has
tended most strongly to alienate the minds of the
people from the Church. A contemporary has
moticed a sort of plunder which some Rectors and
others have been guilty of, in receiving money for
the grant of vaults, to particular families, in the
burial grounds ; and then denying that such vaults
'became the property of the purchaser ; and actually
disposing of the use of the same to other persons. A
case of this kind came lately into Court, when it was
decided that the Rector had no power to gra.it an
exclusive possession of burial ground ; or to make a
'reekold of the same to any person whatever, the
Judge remarking at the time, that while the Reverend
Gentleman contended for the power of granting
have for one party to inter in the vault. which he
had sold to another,—it would have been well if he
had thought it only right to return the money which
he had received for that which he had no right to
sell. But our main object in turning to this subject
is, to notice the common very reprehensible conduct
of some of the Clergy at burials. If a funeral happen
to be a few minutes too late (unless a most respecta-
ble corpse) nothing can exceed their querulousness
Nnd impatience; they become quite insulting-to the
relatives and friends of the deceased; and this offen-
sive behaviour is a thousand times more ungrateful
to the mind burthened, bent down, and humbled
with sorrow; it becomes cowardly and dis2,usting ;

passion struggles with our grief; and we feel menaces
tieing above our melancholy, in resentment of the
unmannerly churl of an ill-bred Parson, that could
choose a scene eopsecrated to such different feelings,
fur giving vent to a coxcombical importance degrad-
ing in the Clergyman and ridiculous in the Man.
With what sort of brotherly feeling ton can a
Clergyman, after indulging in his spleen against
the living, who are present, read over those af-
fecting ceremonies on the dead, in which all the
bad passions are supposed to be buried too ; or
suppressed by the influences of true Christian
chnrity It is no gratuitous eeretncu!,, dod
knows ! for in England, a Man never arrives at
the moment when lie has done paying ; death
is no protection against the plunder of the living;
for the fee is exacted with the same unsparing
hand from the font, where the tenderest infant is re-
ceived within the sanctuary of our Holy Faith, to
the last clod that is shovelled by a paid and
pen-
sioned Sexton, over the remains of youth, manhood,
or old age, consigned as " dust to dust," comming.
ling their ashes with their parent earth. But the
Parson has a sort of shop where the people are
obliged to come as customers at one tinie of another;
and hence the feet., !teed the cause of his imperti-
nence! vie. that harean be guilty of it with impunity.
11` you speak a choleric \vol.(' in reply, he turns
round on you in the name of his abused but sacred
calling, and challenges your reverence for the Al-
mighty in the,person of his Minister! The more
religion such a bigot may fancy that he possesses,
the snore unchristian-like he generally proves him-
self in the hauteur of his office ; so that it has now,
in many populous parishes, become usual for the
commen people to regret the " 01(1.16x-hunting Per
for he, (at least) " was a civil, jolly, good-na-
tured fellow,"—though he would often hurry over
the service if the !scent of a good dinner, or the wind
of a " Tally,hte) came suddenly upon the phrenolo-
gical bumps of roast beefiness, and his dog-and-gun-
abilitireness ; while the rigid Evangelical Rector—
the thorough Roman Priest in every thing but
his learning, his poverty, and his mode of con-
structing: in few words of little meaning—will " let
tie dog hark" in his presence. His tyranny never'
remits ; he is, self-appointed, every man's censor ;
and assumes the right of judging every man's con-
duct, and counselling all his affairs. This is the
new mania of the Church, by which it hopes to
overtake the Dissenter in all the more exceptionable
attributes of character. The old-fashioned Parson
was a man of all weathers; and world boldly come
forth to the funeral service in sun, wind, sleet, or
rain, to perform the due christian ceremonies over
those of his fellow-creatures who were gone to the
audit ; standing bareheaded amid his mourning
parishioners, as partaking with them a common lot ;
while the sensitive, nervous, and apprehensive Saint
of our times, mixing; up equal portions of delicacy
and devotion, has a little wooden house made for
him, which is placed at the head of the grave; he
comes forth at a given signal, the Clerk carrying an
umbrella over his Reverend head, till .he enters his
speaking shop, where he stands like a watchman in
his box—the rain pelting pitilessly all the while on
the uncovered sconces of every body but himself,—
save and except the Clerk, who perhaps makes a
three-quarter shed of his hat, that is turned obliquely
off one side of his head. The service is then
mumbled over in that cantingg way which is so
fashionable in our times ; and in which all the
spirit and effect of good reading is lost sight
of, for a physiognomical habit of lowering
the jib, and elevating the eyes.: Among other
exceptionable and presumptive customs which are
growing up in the Church, and which arc undoing
more than the million and a half granted to the
Commissioners can do, we ought to notice the poli-
tical right claimed by the Clergymen of taking the
chair at all Vestry Meetings. That there can be
any legal right to such a post in a public meeting,
it were absurd to oppose ; for then, in the absence
of the Clergyman, or in any, interval caused by his
death or removal,—or during any refractoriness
which he may choose to adopt,—the parish must,
according to the Law, stand still, whatever important
business may incidently occur in the interregnum.
Besides there is no 1:ezo which ran give a supe-
riority to the Clergyman among his fellow-citizens,
unle,s it can give him a moral and intellectual eleva-
tion at the same time; and if' it can do that, the
sooner the matter is proved and made known, the
better. During the " hole and corner" meetings
of 1821 and 1822, it was the practice for a few
Ultras to call a meeting, at just what notice suited
themselves, and at what hour served best to exclude
their opponents ; —when the Parson claiming the
Chair, was voted to the same just in the nick of lime,
suiting the numericalily of the meeting at a particu-
hr moment ; and—presto !—the thing was done!
('mild any thing tend more strongly to degrade the
Government and the Clergy than this? Look again
at the course pursued at the present moment ! While
the " march of intellect" is forming its lines of eir-
eumvallation round the strongholds of bigotry and
prejudice, the countermarch of the Ultras, on obso-
lete usages, and on modes and manners which nei-
ther belong to the nation nor to the age,—is giving
op to the opponents of folly and stupidity those ad-
vantages which no fair men wish ever to wield
against the Constitution in Church or in State. There
is we are sorry to remark an apparent destiny in the
Church to go down; would it were otherwiSe ! for
really, with all its faults, there is more operative
alistianity mider the lege; of our Episcopal Hier-
eirchy, than we may, hope to find in any possible
successor front among the Religious communities of
our times.

(FROM THE SUNDAT HERALD.)

The past week has not been distinguished by any
domestic news of an extraordinary character. We
present, however, in another part of our paper, a cor-
rect account of a meeting which we are confident
ivill be perused, as it deserves, with the greatest in-
terest and. attention—WC allude to the anniversary
dinner of the subscribers to the Licensed Victuallers'
School in Kennington-lane—an institution which
reflects the highest credit on the respectable body
which gave birth to it, and in, all probability; not
only confers greater good, but prevents the occur-
rence of greater misery than any other establishment
in the metropolis. The long list of subscriptions,
in our paper of this day, shows how powerfully the
feelings of those present at its anniversary dinner on
Thursday were roused and alive to the benefits of
the Institution ; and we feel confident that no one
tan read the report of the proceedings which we
now present without being desirous to, contribute to
the-support of an Institution *hose object is not
truly to instruct the young in every useful branch of
knowledge, but to train them up in the paths of
virtue, and " in the fear of Him .who provideth for
the.orphan, and without whose knowledge riot even
it sparrow fidleth to the ground."

r the Exchequer came down to the House of Com-

pions, and drew a piteous description of the King's
lodgings, which affected the Representatives of the
people with a tender sympathy, and opened their
!warts to brick and mortar. The Right Hon.
3entleman represented Carlton House as in such a
state, that whenever his Majesty received company,
t was necessary to support the apartments with
emporary props; while the only other Royal resi-
tience in London, Buckingham House, said he em-

is " desperate dirty.' Between the in-
firmities of the one abode and the desperation of the
13ther, his Majesty being thus disagreeably circum.

a Bill rendering the Crown Lands available for the
repair and improvement of Buckingham Palace, the
pxpences of which " he would admit aught not he
Tess than 200,000/." Parliament on the strength of
this representation passed the Bill, and the revenue:
f the Woods and Forests became charged with tile
•ost of the alterations, to an undefined amount eel.-
ainly, because Parliament doubtless relied on the
-tatement of the Right Hon. Gentleman, that the
'fr We copy thet,e words from the Debates, struck by a
igour beyond the law of grammar.

expellees might not be less than 200,0001., and in- '
fared thence that they were decidedly not to exceed
that stun. It came In pass, however, that the house
outgrew its means, and the Woods and Forests, at
the late of 70,000/. a-year, proved inadequate to its
quick demands; iii this strait, Ministers looked
abottt them for resource, and took pattern by Mr.
Huntingdon. 'that Godly example, when in great
lack of a change of linen, invoked the drapery of
heaven, " and lo!" said, he, " after my prayers, I
found a miracuhnis store of linen hanging out on a
hedlge." This timely supply he watt pleased to style*
a Godsend, tracing it from the hedge not to the
nearest laundry, but to the hand of Providence. le
like manner Ministers, in want of present means
1,,r their master's house, espied a sum of half
a million, first applicable by treaty to the satis-
faction of British claims on France, and these
Intoidated) the surplus applicable by Act of Parlia-
ment to public purposes. This sum was at once
seen to be a Godsend. The pious Huntingdon could
not have more clearly perceived the divine nature
of the resource than did our Liverpool, Canning, &c.
and half of it, that is, a quarter of a million, was
made over to the exigencies of Buckingham mouse,
a sum exceeding by one-fifth the first extreme esti-
mate of the Chancellor of the Exchequer.-f- Now,
as Lord Liverpool was a pious man, it is somewhat
odd that he never made or caused to be made any
mention or acknowledgment of this Godsend in the
House of Commons ; and but for the accidental
researches of the Finance Committee, it is more than
probable that the divine favour would have been
preserved as secret as a deed of charity. It was
treated indeed rather as a fairy favour, which turns
to a mischief the moment it is disclosed. The mat-
ter has been defended in the House of Commons
with an impudence befitting the emergency; but the
general opinion is expressed in the adopted words
of Mr. Stanley, that it has been " a disingenuous,
shuffling, and underhand proceeding," sad the vin-
dication of Mr. Herrics was in exact keeping with
the merits of the subject. He says that the Corm
pensAtion Fund was applicable to public purposes
approved by Parliament, after the satisfaction of
claims; that the palace was a public purpose approved
by Parliament, ergo, the fund was applicable to it.
The sum, it is to be observed, so disposed of, exceed-
ed the amount originally contemplated by Parliament,
and therefore could not be comprehended in the design
of the Act ; and further, there is every reason for
supposing that, but for accident, it would never have
been accounted for, or at all events its appropriation
had a tendency to encourage profusion, by leaving
the money regularly assigned to the purpose to
which it was irregularly applied, open to other uses.
We must remark, moreover, that the very nature of
the fund should have forbad any questionable liber-
ties. It was dedicated to the demands of justice;
and the disposal of it, while the shadow of a claim
could by possibility lie upon it, should surely have
been scrupulously abstained from. To give the re-
version where there is the adjudication, seems a suf-
ficiently delicate matter ; but to give the enjoyment
of the reversion in anticipation of the right to it, is a
proceeding of a more ugly character. Justice
doubtless would have been done ill any case, but the
appearance of motives for injustice should be avoided.
To the pretence that the money was lent, we think
it unnecessary to glance. One flimsy ingredient in
the apologetic argument we observe is, that it was
not raised in this country No, but it was paid over
to this country in compensation for the loss of capital
raised in this country, and belonging, not to the Bri-
tish Crown, but to British subjects. Much has been
said of the characters of the Ministers committed in
this affair, and the argument and misericordiam has
been put in every form of which the occasion was
susceptible ; the changes of appeals to confidence
or forbearance having been snug on the names of
Canning, Liverpribl, and Goderich, a regard for some
one of whom is to be found in every rank and file in
the House. What these parties thought of the qua-
lity of the action under discussion, it is in vain now to
inquire ; but we are inclined to attribute the com-
mission of it to that which must always be a cause
of weakness or worse in our state—the desire to
please., nay, the necessity of pleasing a Master,
whose pleasure may not always lie in a direction
reconcileable with the strict course of duty. Mini-
sters nmst humour, or lose their favour, their objects,
and their places. The King of England delegates
his power to his Ministers, anal has little to do but
to be rnamificent and happy for the honour of the
country. With the credit or discredit of affairs of
business he is in noway identified; and consequently
when unlucky ) 2casion arises, a gratification
will be grasped at the cost of any subsequent
opinion which may attach to the Ministers to it.—
We subjoin the following excellent remarks of the
Chionide on Mr. Peel's jesuitical defence of the
job :—" If blame attached any where, he said, it was
to the House of Commons, which, of all parties,
ought to he most reluctant in arriving at a con-
demnation of others." And how did he show this ?
When out of the sum obtained as an indemnity one
million was appropriated by the Crown without the
interference of Parliament, as a reward4to the Bri-
tish Army, this subject " was brought- under the
consideration of the House by the eminent Member
for Knaresborough ( Sir J. Mackintosh) who moved
several Resolutions distinctly referring to the power
of the Crown to appropriate money without the
consent of Parliament, as having a tendency to
impair the value of the exclusive privilege of the
Commons House of Parliament to grant Supplies to
the Crown,' Mr. Canning and Lord Liverpool well
knew that these Resolutions had been rejected
by the carrying of the previous question ; and
yet the House of Commons, after coming to such
a decision, now turn round on Mr. Canning and
Lord Liverpool, and would inflict a public censure
upon them for doing that which it was voted they
had a perfect right to do." This is a counterpart
to the story of the Devil in the Legend, tempting a
man to sin, and then upbraiding him for having
thereby cut himself off hum all hope of salvation.
Ministers having succeeded in dragging the House
of Commons through the dirt in one case, is a suf-
ficient reason for the House never returning to a
better course ? In like manner, we suppose, the
majority of Monday night will he deemed a justifi-
cation ofa fresh piece of fraud, and may be pled in bar
of the House of Commons ever returning to a pro-
per sense of duty. This objurgatian of the House
is exceedingly amusing. How could Mr. Pee], after
getting the better of the virtue of the Honourable
House, reproach it with its frailty in this cruel
mariner ?
(FRAM THZ JOHN BULL).
When an interesting debate in Parliament takes
place on a Monday, a Sunday Paper derives but
small advantage fromit—it has been discussed and
re-discussed, read and re-read, in all circles and in
all parts of the Empire, before the Sunday Scribe
has an opportunity of saying a- word upon the sub-
,iect. This fact of itself renders any lengthened re-
marks
of otrrs, upon the abortive motion of Alr
Michael Angelo Taylor, quite needless. The dis-
cussion upon the subject had the effect of sliming,
not only the constitutionality but the economy of
appropriating the sum in question to the purpose
for which it was used, in the manner clearly and die-
tinctly set forth by Act of Parliament. A good deal.
Of time was lost in the course of the night, and the
motion was lost at about three o'clock in the morn-
ing. While we are on the subject of this appropri-
ation we cannot but make one remark upon -an ob-
servation which appeals in yesterday's Times, on the
New Palace—be it observed that we never mention
the subject, for several reasons ; one of which is,
that we do not consider a piece of Architecture
in a state for criticism until the design be complete,
and the public are able to judge of the effect of the
whole—but the critic in the Times finds such a fault
with the Architect that it is impossible to overlook
it, and since it is now equally impossible to remedy
it, it becomes fully amenable to observation in its
present state—after an agreeable flourish about in-
istinet and patriotism, the gentleman
proceeds to
—" We do not think Mr. Nash has made the
say—"
;most of his situation, the Palace should havedirectly
t t The expenses are now rated at 800,000/. !!!

' faced the Horse Guards, St. Paul's might have been
seen towering behind Westminster Abbey, &c."
and so on, describing with all the enthusiasm of
Cockayne, the beautiful view of York House, and
the whole length of Piccadilly. Now there can be
no doubt but that the King's Palace might have
been placed in a more -eligible situation; but it
should be recollected that when other sites were
proposed to his Majesty, the King, with that con-
sideration for the comforts of his people, refused to
adopt any one, which might in any degree interfere
with their relaxations or amusements. As to the
situation of the Palace, built as it has been, by com-
mand, on a partictdar spot, how could Mr. Nash have
brought it directly facing the Horse Guards? Is
there not, as this Times writer ought to know
pretty well, an old dirty street, called James-street,
which faces the Horse Guards; and is there not
besides that street and between it and the Palace a
high turnpike-road to Chelsea? Was this to be
turned—was Stafford-row to be pulled down, was
James-street to be swept away, were Charlotte-
street and all the little streets behind and about it
to be annihilated ? It might have been done—the
site of the Palace would have been improved—the
Park rendered more ettective—the only objection is,
that it happened to be impossible ; or if not impos-
sible, at least so extensive as an alteration, that it
would have cost Mr. Michael Angelo Taylor three
nights rest instead of one, to have ascertained the
amount of expenditure consequent upon it, and the
source whence the liquidation was effected. What-
ever faults the Palace may have when it is finished,
Mr. Nash must answer for; but, en the score of its
situation, he certainly stands already exonerated.

named Joe Pli Jacoae, a Polish Jew, who has kept a brothel
at No. 9, Eagle-court, for some years, and whose wife has
long kept the neighbourhood in a state of tumult, by her
nightly broils, had a violent quart el with his wife on Sa-
turday night, in consequence of a female lodger, named
MA RY ANN, having been decoyed on Monday last front the
house of JAcoms, to that of an opposition neighbour
in White Hart-yard, kept by a man named CHERRY. On
Saturday evening the wives of both the brothel-keepers
met near the Haymarket Theatre, and a violent quarrel
' ensued. On Mr. JAcoes's return home, a contention took
place between herself and husband, about the female 'MARY
ANN, which was kept up all night ; between :2 and 3 o'clock
yesterday morning she was seen by an opposite neighbour
beating her husband in a violent manner near the window,
after which it appeared She went to bed, leaving her hit-

a black female, named FANNY, who acted as servant in the
house, discovered the wretched man lying i❑ the room

rushed from the house in a frantic state, tearing her
hair and sailing for a doctor as her husband had killed
himself. *.lessrs. STANTON and BLAMIRE, surgeon, were
instantly sent for, and on their arrival opened a vein, but
only a few drops of Mood followed, and there were no
signs of life. VA LLA NA and LEMON, two constables, took
the offender into custody, who remarked at the time that
it wes most fortunate that she had not been quarrelling
with her husband. Some Months since the deceased, in
consequence of a quarrel with his wife, attempted to drown
himself at night, near Waterloo-bridge. The deceased was
well known in the neighbourhood.

no one indulges hopes of that sort, relative to coarse and

A HIGHLAND WELCOME.—The following'
circumstance, which took place lately at Dingwall, is ,o
honourable to the parties concerned, that we cannot refuse
ourselves the pleasure of recording it for the gratification
of all and sundry of our readers. \Ve are anxious also
to let the critics of the South to see that though our
climate be cold, and our soil churlish, we atone for the
deficiencies of nature by greater warmth and cordiality of
feeling ; and that the oottish mountaineer, though he
may no longer fellow his feudal chieftain to the field, or
win his fortune with his claymore, has lost none of that
hospitality and " frater feeling strong" which distinguished.
his ancestors in less peaceful times. Captain THOMAS MUN-•
xo, formerly of the 424:1 Regiment, having relinquished the
• sword for the ploughshare, took in March last the farm of
Rackwall, the property of Joule GLansTose, Esq. For
the two preceding years, the farm had been occupied io
grazing, but the Laird willingly allowed his tenant to lay
down this year's crop. A difficulty, however, occurred atthe outhet, which was likely to render the proprietor's
liberality of no avail. The season was far advance`], and
horses, it was to be feared, were sot to be had either for
love or money. In this dilemma, the Captain had almost
abandoned the idea of sowing where he had not reaped,
when a new and unexpected succour presented itself. His
friends and neighbours hearing of his intention, and gues-
sing at his difficulties, came forward to a man with offers
of assistance, and in a few days there were on the farm no
less than eighty-one pair of horses, and fifty-fire labourers,
with divers masons, carpenters, and plasterers—all Working
graciously, as the Irishman said, and all as careful and in-
dustrious as if they had been dependent on the " sair-won
penny fee."
