GLOBE.—The people's right to petition the House
of Commons against the imposition of any given tax
proposed by the Minister for the service of the year,
will acquire security by the effort of Sir R. Peel to
induce the House to enforce an antiquated and uncon-
stitutional rulo against the reception of such peti-
tions. From the temper of the House and the whole
tenor of the discussion on Thursday night, on Mr. I'.
Duncombe's motion for rescinding the
31th againstemonst trouhseriunloe.„
it was obvious that the majority
tion could not preserve it from an early abrogation.
[he division of Aionday night, when Mr. Duncombe's
perseverance again brought the question before the
douse in another form, sealed its doom. The unit in
savour of the rule, which in a crowded house stood forth
to preserve the Premier from absolute defeat, could not,
it was obvious, maintain him in his position. Last night,
on another motion by ?dr. W. Cowper, to the same
effect as that brought forward by Mr. Duncombe, the
anti-constitutionalists gave way, and the Premier as
leader of the sticklers for arbitrary forms opposed to the
indubitable rights ofthe people, very readily, but withal:
ungraciousness of tone and manner which showed the
mortification the virtual defeat of the preceding night
had inflicted, accepted the friendly succour of Lord
Francis Egerton, who suggested that Mr. W.
Cowper should withdraw the petition, the presen-
tation of which would renew the scene of the
preceding night, in order to allow time for tEe
tbrination of a plan which should recognize the
right of the people to petition the House against
any measure under its consideration ; and at the same
time the practice of the House with reference to such
petitions, and discussion on their presentation, be
brought under clearly defined and uniform regu-
lations. Such a plan, without stating the specific
terms of the resolution in which he proposed to
embody it, his Lordship would, if his suggestion
were entertained, undertake to submit for the con-
sideration of the blouse on an early day; and on this '
understanding the debate was adjourned to Friday
next. Sir R. Peel's motive for fighting so dangerous
a battle in defence of the rule which shuts out the peti-
tions of the people from the blouse of Commons, was
allowed to peep out last night, with sufficient distinct-
ness to allow an opportunity for recognizing its shape,
and denouncing the secret conviction of the people's
hatred to his pet scheme of an income tax, from
which it takes its rise :

If lion. Gentlemen and others intended to invoke pub-
lic meetinys to oppose themsilves to the income tar, he
(Sir R. Peel) hoped those meetings would be really
public ones. He hoped they would not be what were
vulgarly called hole-and-corner meetings ; and he hoped
that all those who feared an addition to the assessed
taxes—all those whose income were under lad/ a-year
—all those who expected to be benefited by his Tariff—
would take care to attend those meetings, and express
their opinions on the subject of the income tax."
The delusion sought to be practised on those
" tdiose incomes are under 150/. per year" created
by their exemption from its direct operation, is ra-
pidly passing away. The mechanics and artisans are
beginning to understand, that if the customers of
their employers are unable to purchase to the same
amount the articles in which they deal, their quantity
of employment will be reduced, and the demand for
labour diminished—that if the shopkeeper be assessed
to the amount of the profits he makes by his trade,
that the articles he sells must be increased in price, or
the per tentage on the capital he employs in his busi-
ness will be reduced below the rate at which he" will
be able to prosecute his trade with a remunerative
profit. Every day's delay to the progress of the mea-
sure in Parliament is productive of vast advantage to
the opposition raised to the impost out of doors.
STANDARD.—The absurd question about pre-
senting petitions against an impending tax was last
night again raised—undisguisedly, on the part of the
the movers of the question, to obstruct the public
business. Sir Robert Peel, reserving his own opi-
nion, very properly left the matter in the hands of
the allied parties who had run him to a majority
of one, and Lord Francis Egerton, one of
the allies, promised to strike out a via media
by proposing a resolution that petitions should
be admitted, but not considered. This, we
suppose, is intended as a tribute of respect to
public opinion ; but, to our rude faculties, it seems
extremely like what we sometimes see in the
practice of obstinate and ,contemptuous persons, who,
having given a license to the complaints or advice of
remonstrants or counsellors in such terms as these—
" talk on," " say your say," coolly prosecute their
business or amusement, which ever the case may
be, as though no one were present. Sir Robert
Peel, however, had no choice in the matter, the
public service peremptorily requires despatch, and
as long as the question remains open to debate,
any half dozen Members who are shameless enough
and unprincipled enough to obstruct the public ser-
vice for the gratification of their own vanity, and in
order to promote the ends of faction, may obstruct it
indefinitely. To acquiesce in an impropriety volun-
tarily is one thing, but to hazard the highest interests
by pertinaciously resisting petty improprieties, is an-
other and a very different thing, and it is what no
wise man will ever do. Motive for the exclusion of
petitions against the income tax Sir R. Peel can have
none. To whatever number these petitions may be
raised by factious industry, they will be worth no-
thing if they do not represent a clear majority of
the nation, of which the Premier need have little
fear. The case of taxes is. peculiar ; every one who
is not against a tax must in reason be taken as ap-
proving of it ; for there is always the universal objec-
tion against paying money, and there can be conceived
but one argument in its favour, that is, that the pay-
ment is necessary and just. Silence where one is
charged with a debt is always construed into acqui-
escence, and a payment made is the best evidence that
a debt was considered to be due. By a parity of
reasoning, all who are silent onthe subject of a tax
must be taken as acquiescing in its propriety.

STATE OF TRADE.
(From the Manchester Guardian.)
MANCHESTER.—There was no improvement in our
market yesterday. Purchases of yarn are still made to
a fair amount,—probably, at present, to the full extent
of the production, but on terms dictated rather by the
necessities of the spinners, than settled by any refer-
ence to the cost. For goods there is very little de-
mand, and many manufacturers of power-loom printing
cloths are said to be seriously contemplating an entire
stoppage of their looms. It is still hoped by many
parties that the reduction of the rate of interest by the
Bank of England, and the settlement of the financial
questions now pending in Parliament, will have a fa-
vourable effect upon business ; but hitherto, certainly,
there are no apparent symptoms of the realisation of
these hopes.
ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY, APRIL 11.—
There has been another dull market to-day, and busi-
ness seems growing worse instead of better. Work be-
gins to be more scarce, and wages on the decline. The
wool market has been fli,t, and little business done at
any prices.

Tuesday, at twelve o'clock, Mr. Justice Cress-
well laid the first stone of the New National Boys and Girls
Schools, at New Brompton. The parochial authorities, and a
large number of ladies and gentlemen, resident in the neigh-
bourhood, were present. The necessary funds for the building
have been raised by a subscription, principally amongst the
ladies residing in the immediate neighbourhood.
PRESERVATION OF IRON.—Mr. Tregelles, of Neath
Abbey, says he has found that coal• tar, mixed with one third
its weight of quick lime, and then boiled and used hot, protects
iron in a surprising manner from the action of sea water.—
Carmarthen Journal.

refused him at first. On one occasion we were talking aboln
religion, and I said I should not like to marry a Catholic, when
he said, 6' Nor he either." He had told me before he gave me
the things that his wife had died about five years ago of a de-
cline, and I therefore thought nothing of his offering the things.
By the Jury—The boy was holding the horse when he
brought the things in, and the bonnet was in a band-box, but
they were open on the table and a chair in the room when the
boy came in to tea. The boy said nothing in my presence
about his mother, but while in the chaise Good told the boy he
must call me mother, as his aunt had gone into the country.
The boy made no ob ervation to it, hut called me mother, and
asked me to ieque,t his father to let him drive. I did not
know who Good meant when he said " his aunt." Did not
know if the boy was Good's son. He told me he had a son,
but he did not ?ay where he lived. The articles produced are
the same I gave to the police. They bear a mark I put upon
them.

The witness, who appeared a decent young woman, was then
led out of the room.

The next witness examined was the' boy Daniel Good, 10
years of age, who, having in a most clear and sensible manner
answered the questions put to him by the Coroner as to the
nature and sanctity of an oath, was sworn. He then stated, I
have been brought up to attend the Church of England service.
I am 10 years of age. I think my father is alive. His name
is Daniel Good. He is coachman in the service of Mr. Shiel,
of Putney Park-lane, and has been so, I think, about two years
and four months. I did not live with him, but at 18, South-
street, Manchester-square, with my mother. My father told
me vise was my aunt. She called herself my mother. I don't
know that I have ever heard her call my father her husband.
Father used to come to South-street once or twice a..week.
Sometimes father used to come about six o'clock in the morn-
ing when mother was in bed, when he would get into bed too,
and stay about half an Lour. He would then get up and go
back to Putney. I have not seen my mother since last Sunday
week. It was about one o'clock in the day when I came home
to South-street from Baker-street Chapel. After dinner I
went back to school, and left mother at home, and I have not
seen her since. Mother told me, when I went out, to go to
sleep at No. 99, East-street, because she was going out, and go-
ing to Putney Park-lane. She told me father said she should
not bring me with her. She said it was by his order. Did
not see my father on that Sunday, but saw him the next day.
He sent for me from school, and I found him at home in
South-street. He told me at once that my mother had gone
into service, and that I should not see her before six months.
After I got there my father did not stay above ten minutes,
when he took me to his master's house in Putney Park-lane. I
did not see my mother there or anything belonging to her on
that day. I slept in the house that night, and went to bed
about ten o'clock. We rode to Putney in an omnibus, and got
there about nine o'clock. On Tuesday night I slept at Priest
Bridge, at Mrs. Phillips's (Mrs. Hester's). On Wednesday I
went with my father to Woolwich, where I had tea. We went
to Woolwich in a chaise. Did not see my father do anything
while there. We had tea at a house No. 13, but I de not know

The CORONER—Do you know what colour the bonnet was.
Was it black, red, brown, green, or blue ?
Boy—lt was a blue one. I have seen my mother weer it. I
have keown it ever since she first had it. I knew directly that
it was my mother's bonnet. Father had also a small bundle in
a white handkerchief ; the contents I did not see. He took the
bundle and bonnet into the house at Woolwich, and I saw him
give them to a woman he knew there, as well as many other
things. I saw some of them were apples and pears,
What is what I meant by other things. :Ily father, I,
th t female, and a girl had tea together. While in the
room there I saw the bonnet. Those things were left
there when my father and I came away. We then returned to
Putney in the chaise. The woman who took tea with us came
in the chaise as far as the railway (New Cross). Father anti
the female then got out and went into the public-house, and
remained there about half an hour. We then left and tame
to Putney. The female left us at the public-house. We got
home to Putney about nine o'clock. Before we got to Put-
ney we stopped at Wandsworth, and my father went into a
shop. It was a kind of tailor's shop. He bought a pair
of breeches, and put them into the chaise under where I sat.
Did not see him with anything else. He put nothing but the
breeches under my seat as I saw. When we got to Putney I
was taken to the stables. Father warthere too, attending to the
pony; after that, as we were leaving the stables, and going up
to the house, a policeman came. He charged my father with
having stolen a pair of trousers, and asked leave to search the
stables. During the search in the stables they found a dead
body. I was with them. I saw the body, and thought it was a
pig. I could not recognise it. My father then ran out of the
stables and locked us all in. I have not seen my father from
that time to this. Mother, when she went out from home,
generally wore a blue bonnet. The one produced is my mo-
ther's. That is the same bonnet I saw on Wednesday in the
chaise and at Woolwich. The dress produced is my mother's.
I know it by the stuff and the way it is made. I also know the
pattern and colour. I have also seen her wear gloves like those
produced. I have also seen her have such a neckerchief as
that produced, and I believe the boots to be my mother's also.
The witness then identified the keys before produced to be his
mother's property. One unlocked the padlock of her room
door, another her money-box, and the guard chain I have fre-
quently seen her wear.
The public, including the reporters for the press, were ex-
cluded tern the room, and were kept out for nearly an hour.
While so excluded Mr. Royal was recalled. Mr. Reeks, the
landlord, was next called in, and after lira a female named
Welch, who was in the reom full half-an-hour. On the public
being re-admitted, the Jury retires for about ten minutes, and
on their return (eight o'clock),
The CORONER said the reasen of the order having been
given for the room to be cleared, and even the gentlemen of
the press excluded, was, that it was feared the publication of
the evidence then entered into might tend to frustrate the
course of justice, and defeat the apprehension of the supposed
murderer.

John Houghton, second gardener to Mr. Shiell, was then
examined, after having been cautioned by the Coroner not to
answer any quesSon which he considered might criminate
himself. He then stated—l live on Mr. Shiel's premises,
Granard Lodge, Putney Park-lane. My father is head gar-
dener, and lives in the farm-yard. I occupy a room over the
stables. There are four rooms on the floor that is •ver the
stables and the harness room. I slept in the room next to
Daniel Good, who was coachman in the same service, and
slept at Mr. Shiel's residence. On the night of Wednesday
last I was at my father's house, which is about fifty yards from
the stables, and had been there about a quarter of an hour

when my sister came in with a little boy, who was the son
of Daniel Good. The boy was crying, and he stated that
his father had run away, and he was anxious to know where
his aunt lived. I immediately went to see what was the
matter, my father having stopped so long. I went to the
stable on the right hand in tho yard, in which are three stalls,
a loose stall, and a loose box. I then saw my father and a
policeman standing there. Assistance was sent. for to look
after Daniel Good, for stealing a pair of trousers from Mr. Col-
lingbourne. They did not tell me of the discovery of the body,
thinking it would not be a proper thing to tell me, but about
twelve o'clock my father told me of it. I saw the body. I had
a slight glimpse of it. I did not know the person. 1 remained
with the constable during the night in the stable. I have
seen the body several times since. I am sure I do not know
the body. It has every appearance of being the body of a
female. I have no knowledge more than the utterest stranger
as to who put the body there. I am quite ignorant of it. I
have no reason to suspect how the body came there. I have been
in the stables, but never had any concern in any kind of secrets
whatever. I do not know of Good being in the habit of h'ving
females in the stables, but I have heard him down at all hours
of the night repeatedly. I mean in the harness-room. I
have known him to have tea with foma es there once or twice.
Never knew Good to have females to sleep there. I have
seen Susan Butcher there at tea with Good. Cannot say
when I last saw her there. It is more than a month ago.
Good told me he had lost his wife five years ago, and that his
sister had the tare of his boy at the west er.d of the town. I

have seen the person he called his sister three times, once in
London, and twice at the stables at Roehampton. Last Sun-
Say fortnight I saw her there in the afternoon, and on the
Monday morning following, about ten o'clock, I saw her pass-
ing down the lane towards Putney. She was alone, had a blue
bonnet on, and a bundle with her. Did not know where she
slept. That, on my oath, was the last time I saw that female.
I say it to my soul—to my heart. Whether the body that
was found is the body of that female I can't say, as there are no
features. On the Tuesday morning Good told me he had a
fire to dry the harness, and I saw smoke issuing from the harness-
room chimney. I went to bed on those nights perfectly sober.
Coaoriza—What description of character was Good, and
what was his general conduct?
Witness--He had never a good character, and no one would
trust him much. He was a. kind of a swindler. lam not in
fear of Good, that is to say, bodily fear. I sleep very sound
and heavily. I can't say how the body came there. Good had
sole access to the stables. He always kept the key himself,.
and ever since he came into the service, if he only went into
the harness-room he would lock the stable-door. Good bad
always to be in at ten o'clock, but after that he could get out on
the sly. I have no suspicion of any one but Good having put
the body there. Good could neither read nor write.
Wm. M'Evoy examined,—l live at No. 2, Laundry-yard
Westminster, and am a pavior. On Thursday morning,
about three minutes past six o'clock, I was in the Poultry.
when a man came up to one of my comrades and spoke to him
in Irish, and he then said in English he wanted a direction
written. He then asked me, anoll agreed to do it. We went
to the Three Tuns in Coleman-street, and the man called for
a quartern of gin and a sheet paper. I then began the letter.
The one produced is my handwriting. The letter is as fol-
lows : " April 7, 1842.
"My dear Sir,—l take the liberty of writing these 'few
lines to you, hoping that you will take care of my destitute
boy. I took him out of the Norwood school, and I have kept
him in South-street. I took tea last night at No. 13, Char-
lotte-pioeselda, L.becaino inkg with Susan
Butcher since Christmas list. There "doe swiss*,
and I hope you will turn it to the account of my destitute boy.
I am a single man since I buried my dear wife, five years the
14th of January last. I went to Mrs. Giles's, No. 6, Brum-
mell-row, Clapham. She wanted me to leave my boy with
her for a week, but I would rather not. You will find two
blankets and a mattress in the stable which Susan Butcher and
M 9 slept on. I was a Roman Catholic until I became ac-
quainted with Susan Butcher, and she was the cause of all my
trouble and misfortune. There is 2s. 6d. due for the man,
and 11d. turnpike, and Is. 6d. turnpike. Sir, you will hear
no more. God bless you all. There is ss. sd. expenses to
Mrs. Allen, which that be left to my little boy, and I put my
trust in you that you will excuse me for leaving you these few
days: Mrs. Williams first, I think, got my boy into the school.
Susan Butcher will go to London She was to come up next
week for the mangle, at 18, South-street."
'I he witness, who had been nearly an hour in deciphering
his own handwriting, as far as the above, here gave up the job,
being unable to get further.
Examination resumed—The direction is " Mr. Shiel, Esq.,
Roehampton, Surrey." The man, when I had finished writing
the letter, told me to put the name of "Daniel Good" to it.
The man was dressed in a da k green plaid cloak, drab knee
breeches and gaiters, a pair of low shoes, and, I believe, an
oil-skin over his hat. When the letter was folded, and I had
put in a duplicate the man gave me, he took a wafer and closed
it up. That is all I know.
Doctor Benjamin Ridge, of Putney, examined—By order) of
the Coroner I have examined the body in question. I found
the head cut off between the third and fourth vertebras. The
arms from the shoulders. The right cat partly with a
knife, as the shallow socket or glenoid cavity of the scapula is
distinctly seen, and the cartilage is uninjured. Also the care-
coid process of the scapula, with a portion of tendon of the
brachialis muscle. But the separation beyond this must have
been done by a chopper or hatchet, as the other project-
ing bone of the scapula or shoulder bone, which forms
the upper part of the joint of the acromion process, is
broken off with a part nt the clavicle or collar-bone. The
le ft arm seems to have been taken less trouble with, as the
head and neck of the scapula, the glenoid cavity, the acro-
irion, and caracoid processes, as well as one-third of the cla-
vicle, at e broken off, and the body of the scapula itself much
splintered. The trunk is cut up from the left side from th
pubes to the centre of the sternum or breast-bone ; and to the
left of that bone the last ribs are separated from their attach-
ments. The body was also cut across from the centre above
the hip, all round, so that it only required the separation of the
vertebrae to divide it into two halves, which cut appears to ter-
minate at the junction of the last dorsal with the first lumbar
sertebrse. The whole of the intestines are removed. The dia-
phragm is ruptured above the situation of the liver. The lungs
and heart in their proper places in the thorax or chest unin-
jured. I removed them, and found them perfectly healthy, and
returned them to their proper places. There was a small clot
of blood in the ascending aorta, but none in the cavities of
the heart itself. From the descending aorta being com-
pletely removed with the intestines, there was no blood
in the abdominal cavity. The legs were taken off by first
cutting the flesh, turning the body round to effect this, and
then extending the limb and chopping the femur or thigh
bone from the inner side, below or just at the termination
of the great trochanter, which terminates the neck of that
bone, leaving the heads of the bones in the sockets. I judge
of this by the bone being cut through and smooth on its
upper side, and the under side broken and rough. Both are
severed in the same way. The body is in good condition, and
plump and fresh, with no tendency at present to decomposition.
From certain appearances I should be inclined to think that the
individual was at the time of her decease at least four or five
months enciente. Ido not think that she ever bad a child.
From the discovery of a quantity of charred or calcined bones
found in the harness room, there is no doubt that the head and
limbs of a human being have been burned, as parts of these
can be clearly made out, and it is probable the intestines have
been disposed of in the same way, as they can no where be
found. There was no tendency to disease either in the heart or
lungs ; and I am of opinion she was in good health at the time
of her death. There was no blood remaining in her body.
By the Coaonae--Prom the absence of blood I think that
the dismemberment of the body, and the separation of the head
from the body and limbs, took place immediately upon death. '
I cannot say the actual cause of death, but I am inclined to say
she had met a violent death.
Mr. Allen, assistant to Messrs. Shillete, surgeons, of Putney,
gave similar testimony.
The CORONER said that although so near the termination of
their labours, the inquiry had better be adjourned.
The Jury agreeing with the Coroner, the inquest was, at
midnight, adjourned till two o'clock this day.

The inquiry was resumed yesterday, before the Coroner
and Jury, at the Angel Inn, Roehampton, at two o'clock.
As the proceedings drew to a close, the public interest
in the result seemed to increase. The room was crowded
with persons of all ages and conditions.
Richard Golding, V 31, said I went on Saturday to
18, South-street, Manchester-square, with Inspector
Busain of this division. I was shown into the kitchen
occupied by Mrs. Good. I found a piece of blue silk
and a dark piece of cotton. (They were produced,
and corresponded with the colour and fabric of the poor
oman's bonnet and gown already identified.) I then
went to Susan Butcher's, 18, Charlotte-place, Woolwich,
who handed me the bag I now produce. The bag was
empty. She stated she had been presented the bag
byl)aniel Good.

- Mary-Anne Clarke re-examined—I made Mrs. Good's
bonnet ; but it has
,been re-shaped since. lam sure
it is the same silk put on a fresh shape. The
fragment of silk produced is the piece I had
left after making the gown. I was present
last Saturday when the search was made
in her room by the constable. It was I noticed the silk.
I picked it up and gave it to him. I know it is the same
bit of silk, because I gave it into Mrs. Good's possession
when I had done with it.

CORONER.-But how can you be certain of it ? Wit-
ness—The silk was mildewed—so is this. I also know
it by the cut of it, for it was first made into a bow for her
bonnet though not used afterwards.
The Inspector now carne forward, and said he could
produce a person who had that morning found a piece
of flesh in a place adjoining the Richmond road. The
flesh was taken to Dr. Shillito's, who said it was part of a
human body. _ _

The CORONER said there would be no use in producing
it unless it could be proved to have belonged to the de-
ceased. Have you got Good in custody yet ? Inspec-
tor—l have not, Sir.

Dauiel Good, Jun., re-examined—My mother used to
have several bags. I remember a black one and a velvet
one. She had one for her handkerchief and one for her
money. I have seen the bag now produced, and I know it
was her's. I heard her say, " Father gave it to her,"
and that he said he picked it up.
After the re-examination of Daniel Good, jun., it was
intimated to the Coroner that since the inquest had been
adjourned, the woman Butcher had-made some further
statements in addition to her former evidence. She was
accordingly brought into the room, and on her being
questioned she said, that on their way to
New Cross in the chaise, Good told her that he had got
a mangle in London, and that she was to have it ; and
she was to have met him in London on the following
Saturday, to go to see it. She also said that Good gave
her a plush velvet bug, which she afterwards handed
over to the constable. The keys alluded to in the former
inquiry were then produced, and the witness said she
had no doubt that they were the same she saw in the
possession of the man Good.
The witness was asked by one of the Jury whethei
the arrangement was not that she should go and fetch the
mangle, and not merely to go and see it?—ln answer to
further questions she said that she expected to have been
married to Good in about a fortnight, as she knew the
banns had been put up.
John Maude, the Roehampton letter-carrier, proved
that on the evening of last Monday week he met Good,
accompanied by a young woman. The latter appeared
very dull and dejected, and Good said to him, " Don't
say anything about it." The woman was dressed in
dark clothes, and had on a dark-coloured bonnet. Did
not know what he meant by saying "Don't say anything
about it."

Sarah Greenwood, cook to Mr. Shiells, was then sworn.
She said that the last time she saw Good was when he
was in the stable with the policeman, on the Wednesday
night, just before the body was discovered. On the
Sunday before that Wednesday, about seven o'clock in
the evening, Good told her that he was going to town to
meet a friend, and he went away in a great, hurry.
She saw him again a little before ten at night to have
his supper, but as he appeared to have been drinking,
and as he was always quarrelsome when in that
condition, she left him and went • to bed. On the
Monday morning, Good went to breakfast as usual, bat
she did not observe any difference in his personal ap-
pearance, or see anything remarkable about him. Ile was
very tipsy again on Monday night, and when she went to
bed, he was in the hall with the other servants, and his son
was with him at this time. On the Tuesday morning she

ELECTION COMMITTEES.
IPSWICH.
The Committee appointed to try the petition against the
return of Members for this borough, at the late election, met
yesterday at 11 o'clock. The Committee was composed as
follows :—Mr. J. Parker, Mr, G. Darby, Mr. 11. 111. Tuite,
Sir W. L. Young, Mr. J. Heathcoat, the Hon. General
Lygon, and Mr. Pakingion, Chairman.
The Ceunsel for the sitting Members, were Mr. Hill, Mr.
C. Phillips ; the Counsel for the petitioners, were Mr, Austen
Mr. Talbot, and Mr. Rodwell.
The Committee, immediately after they had met, came to
three resolutions, to the a ffect :-Ist. That Counsel should not
be allowed to go into any. matters nut referred to in their open-
ing statements, without special permission ; 2d. the Committee
expected that, with tespi et to cases of bribery, with which the
sitting Members or their agents might be charged, Counsel for
the petitioners would immediately state the names of the elec-
tors bribed, and of the parties who had bribed them, as well as
in cases of a charge of treating that they would state each case;
3d. that if costs were demanded by either party, the applica-
tion should be made immediately after the decision which had
given rise to the application.
Mr. AusTere, in opening the case for the petitioners, stated
that the petition against the return of the sitting Members
went on the grounds of bribery and corruption. The nomina-
tion for the election took place on the Ist of July, and the
polling on the day following. The Members, as declared by
the Returning Officer, were—for Mr. Wason, 659; for Mr.
Rennie, 657 ; for Mr. Ke'ly, 611 ; and for Mr. Harries, 604.
Messrs. Wason and Retmie were, of course, declared to have
been duly elected. It appeared that the managers of the election
for the sitting Members had distributed themselves in several
parts of the town, having sat occasionally at the King's Head,
at a warehouse belooging to a Mr. May, and at a public-house
called " The Standard," as well as at other places. Among
those managers were Mr. Samson, a member of the Town
Council, two brothers of the name of May, persons of the names
of Tunmer, Enser, Mulley, Cooke, Burt-owes, and others.
It would be shown that the agents of the sitting Members had
been guilty of bribery on the most extensive scale. The
Learned Counsel then stated various cases otbribery, which
he should be i'eady to substantiate by evidence. A voter of
the name of William Brown had come down from London for
the purpose of voting for Messrs. Kelly and Herrics; but he
had received at the King's Head 151. on condition that he
should rote for the sic ting Members, for whom he had accord-
ingly voted Mr. Samson bribed another voter of the name
of Joseph Keener, to whom he had paid the sum of 5/. imme-
diately after the election. William Smith, another voter,
eas paid 5/. for his vote by Mr. Mulley. A person
of the name of Smith gave 15/. to Mr. Enser fur the
purpose of bribing two voters of the names of Scarlett.
Emanuel Baxter received 20/. from Mr. Cook for his vote.
The Learned Counsel stated several other cases of the same
kind. There was a person of the name of Thurnston in the
borough, one of the managers of the election for the sitting
Members, who had been particularly active in bribing the
voters ; in fact, he had acted as a sort of bribery-broker, and
had received a per centage for each voter whom he had
succeeded in corrupting. 'fhe bribery was so exten-
sive and so notorious, that it was not denied by
Mr. Wason himself, who, in a speech which he addressed
to a number of the inhabitants of the borough admitted that
Smith, of the Suffolk Hotel, had bribed to a large amount.
But there could be no doubt that the parties bribing had acted
as the agents of the sitting Members at the election : and in
arty case the bribery was of so extensive a kind that it would
necessarily invalidate the return. It appeared that previous to
the election Mr. Wason had deposited 3,0001. with the
Messrs. Alexander and Company, the leading bankers if
the borough ; and Mr. Wason had been heard to say
that he should not lose his election for want of money. Again,
it would be shown in evidence that on the evening before the
election Smith, of the Suffolk Hotel, had told Mr. Wason that
he had offered a bribe of 251. to a voter of the name of Smith,
who was then present, and who had therefore promised to vote
for Mr. Wason ; that gentleman, thereupon, stepped out of his
carriage, and shook hands with the voter. The Learned Gen-
tleman concluded by stating that he would prove by evidence
these and other cases of corruption equally flagrant.
The poll-book having been put in evidence by the returning
officer, _ _

Mr. John Hay, having been called by Counsel for the pe-
titioners, stated that he was a merchant in Ipswich. He hed
formerly been Mayor of the borough. He had given the sum
of 1001. to the gentleman who had acted as Treasurer to the
sitting Members ; he was that amount out of pocket, having
contributed it towards defraying the expenses of the election.
The witness further admitted that a sum of 600/. had been de-
livered over by him to the same gentleman for the purpose of
the election. He could not say positively whether he had re.
ceived the money from Mr. Wason or from Mr. Rennie; but
he thought it had been given to him by Mr. Wason.
Thomas Waller was next, called, and deposed to his having
seen some of the gentlemen who were charged by the peti-
tioners with bribery in the room where the partisans of the
sitting Members used to assemble.
The examination of the witnesses was not concluded at the
rising of the Committee, at a few minutes before four o'clock.

SUDBURY.
Further evidence was called in support of the case of the pe-
titioners.
Mr. HILDYAILD summed up the evidence at great length,
after which the Committee adjourned till 11 o'clock to-day,
when Mr... Austen will reply on behalf of the sitting Membere.

The Committee met yesterday at twelve ii'clocic, and gave
their decision that they should open the register. The investi-
gation will thus partake of the nature of a scrutiny. After the
decision, the Committee proceeded to take the case of James
Dogherty, which was not decided at four o'clock.

MONEY MARKET and CITY NE W
FROM THE MORNING MIES OF YESTERDAY.
TIMES.—For the next three days the jobbers will be en-
gaged in arranging the various accounts which have become
due during the current week. On the present occasion the
Account in Consols takes precedence, and will be settled on
Thursday ; the Account in Railway ;shares follows the same
day, an,l that in the Foreign Stocks the day after. None of
them are regarded with interest, and are not, therefore, likely
to rrosluce features, since cash will be abundant for ;11 pur-
poses, while the change in prices has general:y gone in favour
of the speculators for the rise. Hence it is that the markets
have been quiet to-day, and quotations leave off without altera-
tion from yesterday.
The premium on gold at. Paris is 9 per mille, which, at the
English Mint price of 31. 17s. 101 d. per ounce for standard gold,
gives an exchange of 25 37k, and the exchange at Paris
on London at short being 25 62i, it follows that gold is }
per cent. dearer in London than in Paris.
By advice: from Hamburgh the price of gold is 433 k per
mark, which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 101/2d. per
ounce, for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13 9*,
and the
exchange at Hamburg/1 on London at short being 13 11, it
follows that gold is 0.60 ler cent. dearer in London than in
Hamburgh.
By the official returns published by the Customs, the exports

CHRONICLE. —The very fact that the fends have ad-
vanced nearly one per cent. since the announcement of an
income tax of 7d. in the pound proves that the financial diffi-
culties of the country are not looked upon in a serious light
and thereby disproves the attempts which are made to exagge-
rate the emergency of national affairs, in order to justify the,
Government in having recourse to the desperate and odiouseri:
plan of a tax on incomes for equilising the public revenue ant" _
expenditure. The inconsistency of the arguments advanced by
the leading Members of the Government has been ably illus-
trated iu the pending debate on the income tax. Seeking to
assimilate the financial condition of the country at present with
its posture in the years 1798 and 1806, for the purpose of
making the public believe that the circumstances are equa.'ily
urgent and alarming,
the chief members of the Admiqistrittiou
exercise their utmost efforts and put their imaginative rowers
on the rack to expatiate on the dreadful state of things in
Caubul, from which they fly for support to China, and even
attempt a resurrection of the rising in the Canadas. Every
mole-hill of difficulty is magnified into a mountain.
