SUN OFFICE, Three o'clock.

It is said that there will he another division to night,
in the que•tion to be proposed by Lord Jonx BussEi.r.
—that Sir ROBERT PEEL'S scale be negatived.

The Bishop of EXETER had the first brush with his
friends in office last -night, and we are not at all sorry
!hat he came off second best, for a more meddling, vain,
and arrogant priest has not sat in Parhatnent for several
reigns. Possibly the conduct of the parties of whom
he complained was bad, and abuses existed in the
Crediton Union, but the misfortune of such a question
being taken up by a man like his Reverence of EXETER
is that people cannot give him credit for sincerity, and
are always afraid that, under the semblance of mercy or
justice, he has some sinister purpose in view. In fact,
Lord WHAIINCLIFFE told him as much. The case had
been allowed to stand over since 1840, and is now raked
up at the time when the New Poor dew was about to be
brought before Parliament. "My firm belief," said his
Lordship, "is that this ease was got up, and that for
s ,me reason which he would not particularize."
Dr. PhiLmeovrs was thus made a VIrtiCETS crintinis.
it is gratifying to see the rebuffs these Tories get front
one another, in reference to this Poor-law. The ob-
noxious mrivure was for a time hnputed entirely to the
Whip, and at electicns in the North, and in Yorkshire
in particular, it was denounced by Tory candidates ; yet
now comes forward the Tory President of the Council,
and shows himself as good a defender of the system as
Lord BROUGHAM himself.

Lord Monteagle postponed his motion concerning Exchequer.
bills last night, on account of the absence of the Duke of Welling.
ton in his county. _ _

A brief discutsion took place on the law concerning Dissenters'
Marriages in Ireland. Lord Campbell recommended that the Bill
fur settling the question should be introduced into the Douse of
Lords. The Lord Chancellor said the Bill was prepared, but he
had not considered the question of bringing it before the Lords
in the first instance.

The Bishop of Exeter entered into a long history of the abuses
in the Crediton Workhouse. Lord Wharncliffe defended the
Government from any supposition of wishing to defend such abuses.
The petition, (on presenting which the discussion atose, was laid ou
the table.

In the Commons Lord Stanley stated that a riot had taken place
in Kingston, Jamaica, on the Christmas day, attended with loss of
life, all caused, it seems, by the meddling of the Mayor. This is
only one of the great multitude of examples of the zeal of magic.
trates being infinitely more mischievous than the fun and frolic of
the people.

Lord Eliot obtained leave to br:n;',and brought in a Bill, which was
read a first time, and ordered to be read a second time to-day, to
settle the qu,tion of Dissenters' Marriages (Ireland).

Mr Muntz's motion to allow strangers to Le present at divisions,
was negatived by 136, the numbers being 187 to 51. Sir Robert
Peel took the Conservative side, and stood up for ancient and ab-
surd practices.

Lord Monteagle had attended at the office of Comptroller of the
Exchequer, which, after a few words from the Chancellor of the
Exchequer and Mr. Paring, was granted.

At the meeting of the Directors and Proprietors of the Great
Western Railway, lAA yesterday-at the Company's Offices, it was
stated, that for the first six months during which their entire line
had been opened, they had realized au average traffic of about
13,0001. a week on the whole line; or taking only that portion
which belonged exclu:•ively to the Great Western, without the
Bristol and Cheltenham portions, tl e earnings had been 11,4001.
a week. Thu report recommended the sum of 20,000/. per annum
to meet the requisite repairs for the next sixteen years, and a divi-
dend of 61. per cent, was declared for the last half year.

trates and police of the Marylebotie Court with a wonderful tale of
stt•her hands and feet tied by a wicked seducer,
dwihorasis, and of hating
terardsbuttiled her into a cah, turns out an egregious
liar and impostor. Sir Watkin Wynn and Sir Benjamin Flail
attended at the office yesterday, and after due inquiry they and
the Magistrate, Mr. Long, came to the conclusion that the whole
story was untrue from Leginning to end.
Its the late Lord Sydenham's will, which has been received from

the legalization of Presbyterian Marriages in Ireland.
U. is of the utmost importance to tranquillize the
minds of the very intelligent body whose moral and reli-
gious feelings were so shocked by the recent decision of
the Irish Judges against the legality of mixed marriages,
celebrated by Presbyterian clergymen. The Noble Se-
cretary for Ireland has obtained leave to bring in the Bill,
to the subject of which we are happy to learn that the
particular attention of the law officers of the late and pre-
sent. Governments has been directed. We trust that
when the Bill has reached the House of Peers, Lord
BROUGHAM will take it under his especial protection,
and so extend its provisions as to include marriages ce-
lebrated by clergymen of all religious denotninations.
The necessity that exists for such a Bill is a disgrace to
the Legislature of this country.

This cause came before the Court on further directions and
costs. The case was originally heart before Lord Cottcnham.
The object of the suit was to prevent the defendant from obtain-
ing certain sli:ne and minerals from a pool in Wales, called
Llathedlin. His Lordship granted an injunction with respect
to the mineral, and directed an issue with respect to the re.
minder. This issue was decided in favour of the plaintiff. His
Honour now granted the injunction prayed by the bill, and di.
meted an account of all mineral which bad hitherto been taken

This was an action brought by the CorporatiOn of London against
the Pewterers' Company, tor an obstruction a f light in a house in
the neighbourhood of Leadenhall Market, the property of the
Corporation.

The French Journals intimate, and we are well dis-
posed to believe them, that the French Government kill
not ratify the Treaty for the suppression of the slave-
trade. French jealousy of England is -too great to allow
the Cabinet to adopt this just and humane measure.
There is no political news in the Paris paperS. M. DE
LAMAIITINE, the poet, has been named Pre,ident of the
Railway Committee. This has given rise to some jokes
in the political circles of the: rench Metropolis. They
are, however, very silly. The greatest poets have ever
been, and will ever be, men of the greatest common
sense. A true poet has the largest capacity for business.

It appeared that in the year.lBls the 'muse in question had been
riibui:t with windows, which commanded a view of some adjoining
premises of the defendants. Complaints were made in consequence
by the Company a few years after, and negotiations had been pens!.
ing upon the subject between them and the Corporation up to the
year 1820, which remained unconcluded. In the year 1840 the
Company renewed their complaints, and subsequently erected
an obstruction, which shut out the light from the house of the
plaintiff; and the present action was brought to try their right
to take such a proceeding.

These facts having been proved fur the plaintiffs, and adulated
in the opening speech for the defence by the counsel of the Company,
The LORI) Cuter JUSTICE said that it appeared that the Corpo-
ration had been left for twenty years in undisputed possession of
the right to have the windows in the house in question, and there.
fore that right, according t ) the statute, could not be disturbed.
The case for the defence was abandoned in consequence of this
declaration of the opinion of the Lord Chief Justice, and the Jury
returned a verdict for the plaintiffs.

On searching this man's premises the policeman could find no
braver, and
Mr. TRAILL (after consulting with Mr. Christy) sentenced the
youth to two months' hard labour in Brixton gaol.

This was an action to recover the sum of 51. 11s. Id., for work
done and performed.
The plea put upon the record was, that the defendant was never
indebted. It appeared that the plaintiff is abuilder, and had been en-
gaged by the defendant to complete some houses in Hyde park.
square. The defence set up was, that the plaintiff' was not the
person engaged to do the work, consequently he was not in a posi-
tion to bring the action. It was further alleged that the order was
given by the foreman of the defendant, and he ought to be liable for
the amount. This failing in proof, the verdict was taken for the
plaintif for the full amount.

PETER PARLEY'S TALES ABOUT the
SUN, MOON, and STARS; also the late Comet : a
New and Improved Edith n, with great Additions.
" In the evening of a long toilsome life, if a man were to be
obliged solemnly to declare what, without any exception, has
beeu the most lovely thing which. on the surface of this earth,
it has been his good fortune to witness, I conceive that, with-
out hesitat'on, he might reply, ' The mind of a young child.'
"We observe with what delight a child ht holds light—co-
lours—flowers—Ault, and every new object that. meets his eye;
and we all know; that (before his judgment be permitted to in-
terfere) for many yea's he feels—or rather suffers—a thirst
which is almost insatiable.
" lie desires, and very naturally desires, to know what the
Moon is?—What are the stars?— Where the rain, wind, and
frost, come from?--With innocent simplicity, he asks, what
becomes of the light of a candle, when it is blow out? Any
story, or any history, be greedily devours."

.1 his Council will be to attend especially to the sugar question.
.‘ It seems that the ideas of the Government are a little modi.
tied. At the beginning it was proposed to subject beet-root sugar
and that of the sugar cane to an r qual duty, indemni-
fying the beet-root sugar manufacturers for the injury
which this sudden transition ought to have on their interest.
At Inc,ent it is contemplated to decree the absolute prohibition of
the manufacture of indigenous sugar; and the indemnity which,
in the first plans, it appears to have been the intention to tix at
forty millions of francs, will be rather larger in the new plan.
It appears from an essay on the remounting of the ca.
vairy, published by General Oudinot, that in the space of
eighteen years, from 1823 to 1840. France has im.
ported 343,000 horses, and in ' the same period has exported
only 72,000, so that we have imported on an average about 16,000
havehors recently a year. This state of things, and the difficulties which
c'ently arisen on the occasion of the importation of German
horses into France, has suggested to General Oudinot a Series of
highly interesting observationf.—Constitutionnel.
