HOUSE OF COMMONS.

The House was summoned. in the usual manner to the
House of Lords, to hear the Royal Assent given by Com-
-mission to several Bills : for which see the Lords' Report.
Mr. WARD presented a petition from the inhabitants
of All Saints, Poplar, in favour of the East London
Railway.
• Mr. RICE TREVOR brought up the Report of the
Committee upon the Caermarthen Main Trust Roads Bill,
and leave was given to bring in the same.
Mr. PORTMAN presented a petition from the Trustees
of the Shaftesbury Road, which stated that it became ne-
cessary for them to borrow sums of money, and they
therefore prayed the House that they would consider the
Bill for that purpose as a public, and not a private Act.
Mr. WARD presented a petition from the Merchants,
Traders, and other Inhabitants of Londou, praying that
the House, in any future regulation which they might
deem it necessary to enter into with respect to Foreign
Corn, would still grant permission for the importation of
Foreign Flour, for the manufacture of biscuits for ex-
portation.

Mr. W. PEEL brought up a Return of the Number of
Unheneficed Curates belonging to the Established Church.
Mr. BALL presented a petition from the Merchants,
Traders, and other Inhabitants of a town in Northumber-
land, praying for a repeal of the Duty upon Stamp
Receipts._

Lord CASTLEREAGH presented a petition from the
London, England, 1828-04-18

however they might differ upon some points of detail, was
fully entitled to credit for the pains be had bestowed upon
this subject, as well as for being the first to draw the at-
tention of the country to it. He was as desirous of emi-
gration as any one, but thought it would he productive of
much more benefit were it voluatary, than compulsory.
He did not think the Bill should be limited in its opera•.
tien to the county of Sussex, but should he general, and,
at all events, that it was entitled to the consideration of
the House.
Mr. Alderman WAITHMAN explained.

Mr. HUME was opposed to any thing like compulsory
emigration, and thought it would be as though four-fifths
had the right to bind the other fifth, and compel them to
emigrate.

Mr. W. NORTON replied.
The question was • then put and agreed to without. a

division.

The other Orden( of the Day were then disposed of,
and the House adjourned at Half-past Twelve o'clock.
London, England, 1828-04-18

NEW SOUTH WALES.

Sir J. MACKINTOSH presented a_ petition from the
Gentry, Merchants, Landowners, and others of the Colony
of New South Wales, agreed to at a public tneetiug con-
vened by the Sheriff, with the permission of the Governor
of the Colony, praying for popular representation and trial
by Jury in that Colony. As the subject was likely
to come under the consideration of the House, upon the
Bill introduced by the Right Hen. Secretary of State for
the Colonies, he should not occupy the time of the House
in making auy preliminary remarks, but should content
himself with stating that according to the most credible in-
formation that the population of the two Australian Colonies
amounted from 55,000 to 60;000 inhabitants, of whom
from 35,000 to 40,000 were free settlers. The annual
revenue exceeded 60,0001. ; the annual produce of the
land and labour 800,0001. Having made that state-
ment he would merely state that there was no instance in
the history of English Colonies where so great a majority
consisted of natural free-born British subjects, were those
two privileges—Representation and Trial by Jury, the pe-
culiar, ancient, and immemorial birth-right of English-
! men. _ -

Mr. Secretary HUSKISSON said, that he would not
then go into any discussion upon the facts stated in the
petiticn, but he could assure his Right Hon. Friend that the
person who gave him his informatiod respecting :the popu-
lation of the Colony either possessed better means of infor-
mation than his Majesty's Government could resort to,
or that he was misled. According to the last returns in
that Colony the population was 49,000, and a fraction,
and of that number 18,000 were settlers, and the remainder,
the majority, wore those sent to the colony as convicts. He
was anxious to do every thing which would speedily place
the inhabitants of those Colonies on the same footing as to
rights, with the inhabitants of this country. But he should
abstain till a future opportunity from stating the grounds
of his opinion, that the introduction of these measures into
that Colony at the present moment would tend to impede
rather than to advance civilization.
Mr. BRIGHT supposed that when the Hon. Gentle-
man stated the population of the Free Settlers to be 18,000
he meant those who originally went out as free settlers, and
to exclude those who had been sent out as convicts, and
after the expiration of their punishment had become free
scalers.
Mr. Secretary HUSKISSON--The 18,000 included
the original free settlers and the emancipated convicts.—
The petition was ordered to be printed.

prisoner to hie lodgings, and took the apartment in
question. In five or six weeks after this, prisoner
Green told the witness that he had purchased some
travelling-beds, which he intended to semi to Cal-
cutta. Witness the next day saw some beds in the
drawing-room, which were taken away the next
day. Knew nothing whatever of the purchase or
sale of the said beds. The witness added, that lie
knew nothing of the prisoner Davis further than
that i'j (witness) was recommended to him and
Edgard by a friend in Paris, he (witness) being in
the wine trade.

A Solicitor submitted that this evidence was in-
efficient, and that, at all events, if the magistrate
should otherwise decide, the prisoners were entitled
to bail. The bill which Mr. Thompson had taken
for the beds was not as yet due.
Mr. Cross—Yes, it is over due; and the parties
have absconded.

The solicitor—The prisoner Green has not ab.
sconded, and he is the acceptor of the bill.
Mr. Cross--No; and we will endeavour to keep
him.

Sir R. Batt:LE—Let the prisoners be committed
for a conspiracy to defraud Mr. Thompson, and let
the witnesses be bound over to prosecute at the next
Westminster Sessions.

The prisoners were then removed in custody.
During the above examination, the prisoner Green
was obliged to be indulged with a seat, and it re-
quired the utmost vigilance of Ford, the gaoler, who
never kept his eyes off him, to prevent him from
tearing open the wound in his throat. The unfor-
tunate young man had stated in a letter to Sir
Richard Birnie that he was about to have been
married to an English lady, named Hutchinson,
when he was taken into custody on the present
charge.

VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT.

At the Sitting of the Court this morning, several

COURT OF KING'S BENCH.
moo -
Lam THE MIDDLESEX GRAND JURY.
• Mr. Justice BAILEY took his seat this morning, at
half-past nine, when.the gentlemen composing the
Grand Inquest for the county of Middlesex were

sworn in.
It will be recollected that Sir Peter Laurie was
summoned on the last Grand Jury, and objected to
serve, on the ground that being an Alderman of
the city of London, he was exempted from
service on Juries, by a Charter granted to
the city by James I. On that occasion Mr.
Justice Baileydirected Sir Peter to be summoned

on the next Grand Jury, in order to give him an
Opportunity of maintaining his right by the produc-
tion of the charter.
Upon Sir Peter's name being called this morning,
he handed to the bench a book containing a copy of
the charter in question.
After looking through it Mr. Justice BAILEY said
that under that Charter there could be no doubt
that the Aldermen of the city of London were ex-
empted from service on Petit Juries, but the ques-
tion still remained whether they were liable to be call-
ed upon to serve as Grand Jurymen. On this point
he would not now offer any opinion, but as there
was some question as to his right to serve, Sir Peter
Laurie might consider himself discharged.
Sir Peter Laurie said, he should not feel the
slightest objection in serving on the Grand Jury,
but that he was one of the Aldermen appointed to
sit at the Guildhall during the present week. Sir
Peter then bowed to the Bench, and withdrew.
(SITTINGS fN BANCO.)
Upon Lord TENTERDEN'S taking his seat this
morning, he handed to the Master, Mr. Le Blanc, a
warrant from the King, authorizing the three Puisne
Junges, to bold Sittings in Banco for the despatch
of business, during the sittings at Nisi Prius, at
which Lord Tenterden will preside.
The days appointed for the sittings are from the
13th to the 21st Fab. inclusive, if the attendance of
the Barristers at the Quarter Sessions should not
interfere.
The COURT then entered into the case of the
Special Vestry of St. Martin's-in-the-Fields, which
was part heard on a former day, and which occupied
the Court until a late hour.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.
(SITTINGS IN BANCO.)
The Court were occupied all the morning in hear-
ing motions for new trials, none of which, however,
were of any public interest.
Mr. Justice PARK proceeded at one o'clock. to sit
at nisi Arius in Guildhall.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.—(Turs DAY.)

COURT OF CHANCERY.
His LORDSHIP took his seat this morning at I,
quarter before eleven o'clock.

VIOLEA V. PARROTT.

Mr. TRESLOYE said he was requested to mention
this case to his Lordship, which had been heard in
his private room, and in which the Court had pro-
raised to communicate with the parties.
His LoRDShIP would think of the case, and com-
municate his opinion to the parties shortly.
HABEAS CORPUS.

Mr. KNIGHT said he was instructed to apply to
the Court for a Habeas Corpus to bring up a gentle-
man of the name of Isaacs, a highly respectable
merchant in the City, who was at this moment in-
carcerated in Newgate, under a commitment.
his LORDSHIP ordered the Habeas to issue for
to-morrow.
IN THE MATTER. OF FOLKS, A BANKRUPT.

• Mr. TRESLOVE stated that this was the petition of
Mary Folks, the bankrupt, which prayed that the
commission issued against her on the 18th of January,
1827, on the petition of certain persons, as executors
of a gentleman of the name of George Hawkins,
might be superseded. The application was made on
the ground that the bond which was given to the
Lord Chancellor, stated that the bankrupt was truly
indebted to the petitioner, Gerrard Wilkins Scudder,
to the amount of 1004, without mentioning a word
with respect to his being an executor to Mr.
Hawkins, and that, therefore, it was not conformable
to the Act of Parliament, and the commission was good
for nothing. The bond was altered as it was alleged,
by the petitioner, after its execution, by interlining the
words—"and to 'William Harris, executors of the last
will and testament of George Hawkins." The affi-
davits of Mr. Richard Peter Smith and Mr. Edwin
Smith, his son, most positively swore, that upon
going to the bankrupt's office, they saw the
bond in its original state ; that upon another oc-
casion upon inspecting it, they observed its alteration.
Mr. Sinithi,nd his son were positively denied in all
these statements, by the affidavits of the petitioning
creditor and Mr. Badderley, and therefore, a ques-
tion arose as to whose evidence should be considered
worthy of credit. Upon the petition coming on
before his Honor the Vice-Chancellor, he declined
hearing the petition altogether, and directed it to be
heard before the Lord Chancellor, as it related to
matters of extreme importance with respect to the
conduct of his Lordship's officers.
Mr. MILLER followed on the same side.
Mr. ROSE appeared for the petitioning creditor,
and could not see upon what legal and equitable
grounds the alteration of a bond could at all affect
the validity of a commission. With respect to the
alteration, it was quite clear from the affidavits that
it had been done before its execution.
Mr. TRESLOVE replied.
His LORDSHIP was clearly of opinion, resting
Upon the respectable testimony of the petitioning

ANOTHER AFFRAY WITH SMUGGLERS.—
An armed body of smugglers attacked the party stationed
• - :.:at the blockade station at Eastbourne, who were resisting
am their attempts to land a boat with kegs of spirits, at a
at (lace called the Steps, on the morning of the 23d instant,
about three o'clock. In the affray Dumas REYNOLDS,
seaman, was shot in the leg. The ball has been since ex-
tracted, and the man is now out of danger. On the part
of the smugglers—one died as he reached the village of
Willingdan, and two others are lying dangerously wounded

MEETING OF PARLIAMENT.

AS the present state of the Ministry must
awaken the utmost anxiety in the minds of all poli-
tical readers, and lead them at this moment to look for the
amplest intelligence, combined with the most free and fear-
less discussion in their newspapers, Mr. BUCKINGHAM,
the Editor of the SPHYNX, in order to render his Journal
a more powerful organ of opinion, and a more comprehen-
sive Newspaper, has determined to enlarge its plan, and
instead of publishing a Number once a week at the price of
ls., will in future give two paperS at the price of 9d. each.
They will be published on Wednesday and Saturday, so as
to comprise the two London Gazettes, so important to
Country Residents. As each Number will contain Six-
teen Large Quarto Pages, the Editor will be able to give in
his two Numbers such a complete digest of the News of the
week, (including the Leading Articles of other Journals) as
shall supply the place of a three-times-a-week Paper. In
addition to these advantages, the SPHYNX, from pecu-
liar sources of information open to the Editor, will be
enabled frequently to communicate exclusive intelligence to
its readers, and it will contain what no other paper in
England has ever yet attempted—a Commentary, by way
us notes, on the Parliamentary Debates, exposing the errors,
mis-statements, and fallacies of the several Speakers, as they
occur; thus making the reader as it were a party to the
debate, by giving him the ready repartee of one present in
the House, and speaking freely that which would be likely
to pass in the mind of any independent and unbiassed
auditor in that Assembly.
Orders for the SPHYNX LONDON NEWS GA-
ZETTE, the cheapest and most comprehensive Paper that
any Country Resident can possess, will he received by all
Newsmen, and by the Clerks of the Roads, and no delay
should take place in their transmission. Published for the
Proprietors by W. Leaver, at the Office, No. 147, Strand,

HONOURS.

On Tuesday two petitions were presented to the
Court of Aldermen, and Counsel was heard in their
support, against the return of Mr. Hooper and Mr.
Bridge to represent the inhabitants of Bread-street
Ward in the Court of Common Council. The peti-
tioner, Mr. Shoobridge, alleged that they were in-
capacitated by non-residence, and by till: irregular
manner in which the election was conducted. The
location sought to be determined by this petition
was, whether the increasing number of citizens who
every evening retire to their houses or cottages in
the suburbs, leaving their shops and warehouses mi-
ler the care of servants, do not by such a practice
disqualify themselves for the office of Common
Councilmen, and whether those only are entitled to
them who constantly sleep on their premises.
Mr. LAw, as Counsel for Mr. George Shoobridge,
the appellant, called evidence to show that Mr.
Hooper had appealed against a tax on the ground
stated. The place where he carried on his business
had formerly been his dwelling-house, that is, he
slept there constantly : butt now he slept at Ken-
nington, and a servant only slept on the premises.
This fact was proved by the servant himself.
Mr. Hooper cross-examined his servant, who
stated that his master reserved a bed for himself in
the house, and occasionally slept in it. lie had
been compelled to serve the office of constable as a
householder, by reason of his occupancy of that
house.

Mr. HooPER, in person, replied with great spirit
to the case of the petitioner. He cited at length, a
case where the Twelve Judges held the breaking in
of a dwelling-house. where the circumstance of re-
sidence was much less strong than in the present
case, to be a burglary ceteris paribus. Now, if the
dictum of the Twelve Judges would not support his
case, he did not know what would.

Strangers witherew.—The COURT, after a abort
consultation, declared Mr. Hooper duly elected, but
assigned no grounds for their decision.
Mr. LAW then addressed the Court on the other
case, which was that of Mr. Bridge. The Learned
Gentleman proceeded to contend, that as wardmotes
were by their constitution of the nature of courts
leet, the office of Common Councilman was of the
nature of the office of constable, where it was actu-
ally requisite that the person filling it should be, in
the quiet tense of the ancient law term, resiant, and
at all times ready to do suit and service with the
other officers chosen at the leet upon view of frank-
pledge. _

Evidence iva3 given to prove that Mi. Bridge
constantly slept at Hampstead.
Mr. BRIDGE, on the other hand, proved that he
had the entire control of the house; that although
he went out to Hampstead to sleep in the house
kept by his aged mother, he was not a householder
there or so considered.

The COURT decided that Mr. Bridge's election
was good, but assigned no ground for their decision.
In neither case, it is considered, the Court decided
upon the legal merits, or settled the question of non-
residence.
London, England, 1828-01-31

DRURY-LANE THEATRE.

An Oratorio, under the direction of Mr. Bishop,
was given last night at this theatre. The selections
were unusually miscellaneous ; more so indeed than
was consistent with good taste. The principal per-
formers were—Madame Pasta, Madame Feron, and
Mr. Braham, supported by a host of inferior, but
still respectable vocalists. Among whom we may
mention Miss Grant, a young lady of no inconsider-
able promise.
Braham's sublime execution of Luther's Hymn
was the chief feature of the evening, beside which,
but in a different class of excellence, we may place
Madame Pasta's " Di Tanti Palpiti," which never
fails to delight, however frequently repeated—" de-
cies repetita placebit."

notwithstanding that prices are rather improving in most
markets, the trade has been heavy at last Friday's prices,

The supply olßarley much exceeds the demand, and it i=

LONDON MAGAZINE•

The present number consists almost exclusively cf
Reviews. The leading one on W. Irving's Colum-
bus, gives a fair enough—though somewhat har:-.,h
analysis—of that writer's merits as an historian ;it
'awards him the praise of taste and polish almost to
fastidiousness; but denies him time possession of
manliness or vigour. Mr. Irving is, indeed, feebly
elegant; he abounds in beauties of expression, but
wants thought. Hence his life of Columbus, not-
withstanding the occasional beauty of its descriptive
passages, is (notwithstanding its materials) somewhat
prosy and unreadable. " Diary for the month of
February," is a smart and ably written digest of the
leading events, personal and political, of the month,
It is, however, too long. The " Plan of an Epic
Poem, by Pope," derives its sole interest from the
" great little man" himself. It was to have been in
blank verse, and would have doubtless been a failure,
for as Johnson truly observed, " Pope wa., born to
be a rhymer." The present analysis recently disco-
vered, should have appeared in the " Gentleman's
,Magazine," side by side with an old church, or a
letter from Dr. Hawkesworth, or some sage of the
eighteenth century. Here it is out of place. Thu
account of the " New Brunswick' Theatre" now
that it unhappily exists no longer, is interesting, and
cannot be read without forcing on the mind most
painful and harrowing reflections. The remaining
articles may be summed up in a line—they are as
good as usual.
