The Presse, the Constitutionnel, and the Sleek, alluding to
the article of the Debuts of Wednesday, on the right of search,
recommence their attacks on the treaties of 1831,. 1.833, and

-paper; but in their remarks we find neither interest nor novelty.

PARLIAMENTARY.
The Lords met last night, and had a short debate on the
condition of children in mines and collieries, which the Bishops
of Norwich and London deplored.
The marquis of Londonderry denied that females were
chained to waggons in the collieries of the Tyne and Wear..
Several Bills were forwarded a stage. Lord Brougham, 'with
view to inquire into the strange scenes now exhibited before
l'etion Committees, laid on the table a Bill of Protection and
-Indemnity to all who might be required to give evidence on the
`Abject. It was read a first time.
On the motion of the adjournment, another little sparring
Marquis of Lonstondrry reltive to the accusation which the
latter had made against the Magistrates of Sunderland, and
'Which he refused to retract. The disorder was so great that
Lord Redesdale was shocked,' and called the Noble Lords to
order. ;---Their Lordships thereupon adjourned.
Besides entertaining Mr. Roebuck's motion, to which we have
elsewhere referred, the- Commons only discussed the Property-

Passed the rule for assesing tradesmen's profits on an average of
the last three years, by 76 to 27. The House was engaged with
Ile Bill the whole evening, and got through all the clauses. It
'ldiagrned at One otlock, till Monday.

PUfILIC OPINION.
la referenee to Sir Robert Peel's tariff, the Post observes :
relirSubstituting • substance- for shadow—Conservative realities
elief Utopias—Sir Robert Peel's bold measure for the
ef of the suffering commonalty at this moment awakens the
most eager attention, abtoad as well as at home. Ee in dis-
taot regions, where commerce has long slumbered,v itn revives
the spirit of enterprise. The facilities created by the revision
of our tariff will make other nations rival, and emulous suitors
for the favours of England. We were the first, some months
since, to call the attention of our commercial countrymen
, to
the inexhaustible dormant riches of Hungary. Its inhabi-
in the enjoyment of the blessings of freedom under the
Zd": in
Government of our. Sincere Austrian ally, con-
• sas their free brethren -of predilection, destined to
vul,ihdravr from their land, as regards commerce, the incumbent
res7,:s,l'fisolittion•and"sterility. The news of Sir Robert Peel's
tariff has spread like wildfire in Hur.gary.
dTahyeTili)°,:sfrtlhoeurnals are full of this subject, and from day to
tniN advantages Hungary and its sister provinces
might derive fro
tagiand;,,,m a treaty of commerce betwixt Atistria and
of 'fele
—I-re:4k thus speaks of Mr. Roebuck :—" In the House
'minions there are few Members who have a shorter
Method o
style and vi going to work than Mr. Roebuck. His trenchant
vigorous appeals have not many imitators. But the
slumber of those who, possessing the same powerful weapons of
attack would have the honesty and frankness to turn them
against offending friends as well as offending foes, where the
interests of the Constitution required their impartial exercise,
we fear, still smaller. We think that the course adopted
last night, by Mr. Roebuck, entitles him to that praise which
every Member of the Legislature may legitimately challenge,
who, having undertaken a grave public duty, fearlessly dis-
charges it, regardless of personal considerations and party pre.
Possessions."
The Tines says :—" In two of the cases with which Mr.
Roebuck has to deal—Nottingham and Harwich—not a word
of evidence has yet appeared—the inquiry has not opened—
the House has no means of guessing, except from the eccentric
motion of one of the Members, what are the accusations, or
how supported, on which the petitioners intended to rely. Mr.
Roebuck, indeed, may think that if he is allowed to
examine
the agents, he will get ail out of them. But what is allowed to
him must be in future allowed to all ; and is he prepared to
establish the privilege in any Alember of Parliament of exa-
mining any agent, upon any subject however confidential (and.
this is pretty fairly so), which he may think likely to convict a
sitting Member? We think none of these alternatives will be
likely to find much favour in the eyes of a practical House of
Commons; and therefore, as we have said, we wait anxious to
see what else they may find themselves able to exeogitate."
, We quote the following from the Chronicle :—" Mr. Roe-
honestservs the thanks of his countmen for the bold and
whieli he has ventured to enter upon and carried
coll. It could not have been expected by him that his ques-
tions would elicit from all the guilty parties an admission of
nett original offence, or of the compromise by which they have
contrived to defeat the ends of justice. Captain Plumridge
Inet the matter by a peremptory denial of all participation in
Vrthery, but with a frank avowal, of the irregular arrangement
h}' which Ins seat is to be transferred to another. Mr. El-
.nstone denied every imputation, and we think satisfactorily.
rfiabnastiioennsc,ein)fdt,he others is the most ample of all possible ex-
planations,
weltititkhseto Mr. Roebuck, the country now 141-
have all aion Members of the House of Commons
centreports g u-ndurst"d, what is the real meaning of the re-
of Election Committees."
