MAURY OF NEVIS

AND
labia Opinion.

" il'ho runs nary read."

FOREIGN.
The leading articles of the Paris journals of Satur-
day are almost exclusively on the regency question.
It is evident that, if the opinions of the writers who are
the avowed organs of the different political partif s in
the Chamber of Deputies may be taken as indicative of
what is intended by the leaders of those parties in the
legislature, the Regency. Bill will not be passed with-
out some warm discussion, although the question di-
vested of party politics is anything but complicated.
On Thursday the King of the French came from Neu-
illy to Paris to receive visits of condolence. His Ma-
jesty was accompanied by the Queen, Madame Ade-
laide, the Princess Clementine, and the Dukes de Ne-
moon, d'Aumale, and Montpensier. The Queen of the
Belgians and the Duchess de Nemours remained a
Neuilly with the Duchess of Orleans. Her Majesty,
with the rrineesses, on arriving at the Tuilleties, in-
stantly retired to her apartments, where she received a
few ladies. The King took his seat on the throne, hav-
ing the Duke de Nemours and the Duke de Montpensier
on his right, and the Duke d'Aumale on his left.
On the right of the throne were the President of the
Council, the Ministers ofJustice. of Foreign Affairs, of the
Interior, of Finance, of Commerce, of Public Works, and of
Public Instruction, and Marshals Molitor and Vallee.
On the left were the Aides-de-Camp, Officers, and
Equerries of the King and the Princes. The King re-
ceived the great bodies of the State and the authorities
in the following order :—The Peers, with the Chancellor
at their head ; the Members of the Chamber of Depu-
ties, the Court of Cassation, the Court of Accounts, the
Royal Council of Public Instruction, the Cour Royale,
the Institute, the Prefect and Council of the Seine, and
the Municipal Bodies of Paris and the Departments, the
Royal Academy of Medicine, the Tribunal of Premiere
Instance, the Tribunal of Commerce, the Juge-de-paix
of Paris, the Chamber of Commerce, the Functionaries
And Professers of the Polytechnic School, the Ro) al
College of France, the Consistory of the Reformed
Church at Paris, the Consistory of the Christians of the
Confession of Augshurg,. the Chamber of Notaries, the
Prefect and Council of ,the Seine et Oise, tne Mayors
and Deputations of the Municipal Councils of Versai:les,
Nantes, and Nancy. At half-past three the King re-
ceived the Corps Diplomatique ; at f iur, the Council of
State ; and at half-past four the Archbishop and Clergy
of Paris. At five their Majesties and the Princes re-
turned to Neuilly.
A respectable meeting of the English residents took
place in Paris on Saturday, for the purpose or pre
paring an address of condolence to the King of the
French on the occasion of the death of the Duke of
Orleans. A report of the proceedings will be found in
another column.
The Repgrateur of Lyons states that a collision took
place on the St. Etienne rid road en the 15in instam,
the train from Givors running against that returning to
Lyons. Several of the carriagca were thrown off the
rails, and one containing thirty persiins was dashed to
pieces against the rock at the side of the line. No
person was injured seriously, but some contusions were
received. •
A letter fro-” Madrid of the 16th instant announces
that the dispute between M. Gonzales and M. Marliani,
which was expeated to end in a duel, has been arranged
by the mediation of General Seeane. M. Martian' is
stated to have left Madrid for France.
The Madrid HeraLlo states that some difficulties had
arisen between the Courts of Spain anti Portugal, in
consequence of the arrest of M., Saenz, -a senstor of the
province of Orense. A note couched in strong terms on
the subject had been presented to Count Almadovar by
the Portuguese Minister. This is the cause assigned for
the movement of Spanish troops towards the Portuguese
frontier.
The Barcelona journals of the 17th inst. announce the
arrival of General &elan° on the 13th at Girona. The
same day he ordered three Carlists to be shut in that
town, and four more the following day. The British
frigate Belvidera, of 46 guns, anchored in the port of
Barcelona on the 14th. It appears that some Spanish
vessels of war are to join the English frigate in a cruise
on the southern coast of Spain.
The Rhine and Moselle Gazette informs us that, about
two in the afternoon of the-16th inst., a fire broke out
in the small town of Lorch, near Rheindiebach, and, as
most of the inhabitants were in the field getting in the
harvest, ten houses were entirely consumed before any
attempt could be made to extinguish the flames; and even
afterwards they burnt so irresistibly, that they were not
subdued till nine o'clock in the evening, by which time ,
thirteen more houses were reduced to ashes.
A railroad train, which left Liege for Brussels on Tues-
day evening last, was detained for an hour at a short
distance from the tunnel at Cmnptwich by a hill of the
bank, occasioned by the preeeding storm. A wheel of
the engine got off the rail, but no other accident occurred.
The train reached Brussels in safety at ten o'clock at
night.
We find the following in the Swabian Mercury :
" The continued efforts of the English Cabinet to give to
the Queen of Spain a Prince of Coburg for a husband
have excited a high degree or interest in Austria, as the
Duke of Coburg Cohary belongs to that country by his
large possessions in Hungary. Recently the King of the
French addressed Duke Ferdinand as Royal Highness,
which gave rise to much comment, although it was per-
haps a mere expression of politeness. It is certain, how•
ever, that the English Cabinet has taken steps to insure
to this Ducal family the title of Royal Highness, and it is
even said that Queen Victoria has addressed at cut( graph
letter to this effect to a German So% ereign."
PARLIAMENTARY.
The Lord Chancellor was again absent from the House last
night on account of ill health.
The Sudbury Disfranchisement Bill was in consequence
postponed till Friday, and Lerd Campbell's motion about Couto
sal till Thursday.
The Bishop of London took the Lord President of the
Council, Lord Wharncliffe, to task for his rupposed observa-
tions about education, and Lord Wharncliffe very kindly
assured the Lord Bishop that he meant to pursue the' same
course as his predecessor, and abhors a normal school without

religion.
On the motion for recommitting the Mines and Collieries
Bill, Lord Brougham made a very sensible speech on the sub-
ject, very properly cautioning their Lordships how they inter-
fered with labour, and pointing out several cases of greater
immorality than employing children in mines, with which their
Lordships are not likely to interfere.
The Marquis of Londonderry opposed the motion for re-
committing the Bill, and moved that it t.e referren to a select
Committee. Alter a short debate, his motion was negatived
by 49 to 3, and their Lordships went into a Omani:tee on the
Bill. Lord Lyttelten • proposed to postpone the operation of
the clause relative to women till May, but his amendment was
negatived. Several verbal amendments were made in the
Bill, which ultimately went through the Committee. It is to
be read a third time on Friday.
In the Commons the Commercial Tr• aty with Portugal was
laid on the table. Several notices were .given and questions
asked, for which we refer to the report.
Sir R. Peel, in reply to a question put by Lord Palmerston
on a former evening, stated that an additional sum of 10,0001.
would be voted to meet the demands on the grant for education.
In reply to Mr. Ewart, Sir James Giaham said that 1. e had
no intention to propose any subst.tute for transportation as a
punishment.
Mr. Thomas Duncombe, on the motion for the House
to go into a Committee of Supply, moved for the depo-
sitions in the case of Mason, a Chartist, who had been
arrested and tried at Stafford, on the 2d instant, for sedition.
A debate enused, which turned principally on the power of a
-constable to arrest people whom he supposes to be guilty of
sedition. The Tories claimed such a power for constables ; the
Liberals denied that it was constitutional Lord Palmerston
took the popular side. 'On a division, Mr. T. Duncombe's
motion was rejected by 116 to 52.
Mr. Sharman Crawford afterwards called the attention of the
House • to the distress in Ireland, but withdrew his motion on
the subject, after being assured that it had not escaped the at-
tention of the Government.
The House then went into Committee of Supply, and voted
away a considerable sum of the hard.worked people's money.

The Morning fitruld has the remarks upon
the conduct of the House of Commons and the Tory Go-
vernment relative to the war in Affghanistan :—" For-
merly in England, and especially under Sir Robert Wal-
pole, we had. the House amused and the country hoot,-
winked by committi ea of inquiry into our foreign
relatkns ; but now 'a-days, when we are involved in the
must complicated and mysterious transitetiens with so
many countries in the world, doing, suffering, acting,
slaying, being stayed, vituperating what we have done,
continuing to do it again—when the wholo nation is
agitated by contradictory thoughts and opinions—when
every public man of name and reputation pours forth
indignant denunciation of the acts of which he is the
instrument and the agent—when the most esteemed and
chivalrous of our soldiers are dragged through the mire
of mean persecution, and the envoys and representatives
of England suffer death by the hands of infuriated
nations that our crimes have aroused, and in their dying
moments, while execrating the policy of the country of
which they are the victims, writhing under the torture of
their own characters being blackened and defamed by the
very Government which they' saarifieed their consciences to
serve—when one Administration is driven from office by
public indignation aroused by its acts, and successors
who have exhausted every argument of reproach and
condemnation of the policy of their predecessors, come
in to adopt that nolicy and to render detested measures
permanent by the change of men, the House of Commons
never once thinks of instituting an inquiry, appoints
neithor ' select ' nor secret committee' of investigation
up in any one of the subjects so confused, so mysterious,
so mismanaged. This nation fancies it is divid. d into
two parties, and that the one party being in power, the
other party will be the guardian of the public interests
by watching over the acts of its antagonists ; w bile, in
fact, we have both those parties united in pursuing the
same end, ;mposing on the country worse than the ills of
absolute and arbitrary power eithout any of its possible
benefits. This union of a Ministerial party and an Op-
position to carry out measures reproved by the nation,
has • extinguished its reasiin with its freedom. The
Tories, beiiwe they came into office, although they never
took any direct step to arrest the late Government in
its course its respect to the war in Central Asia, still
censured that war, n. y, they exhausted censure ; they
left to no one else argument against it, and they come
into office to continue that which they asserted to be the
most foolish and criminal act which had ever defamed
the name of England."

V SOLVENT DEBT, IR'S COURT, July 25.
IN RE WILLIAM LANGHAM.
• The insolvent's petition to be (lizichaig(.(l was opposed
by Mr. Woodroffe on behalf of Mr. Within' Cox, wine
cooper, of Crown-street, Soho. He was supported by Mr.
Nicholls. •

It appear, d that the opposing creditor had placed the
insolvent as a care-taker in some premises which
he
fitted up at Wooh%ich, for the purpose of carrying on
business in one part as a ta‘ern, and the remainder fir
the disposal of fancy articles. The insolvent, after a
short time, said he was not be consjch red in the light
of a care-taker, but that he purchased the goods
on his own account from Mr. Cox, and was himself
the tenant, and that he would make it all right in the
Insolvent. Court.

After the examination of several witnesses, whose evi-
d.•nce occupied the Court during the greater part of the
morning, the case was ordered to bland over.

POi.I.LE INTELLIGENCE.
ARLBO R 1.1 Gil- 3• TREE T.
IMPORTANT To HOUSEKEEPERS.—George Gatheryood,
a builder, Charles Mudd, a butcher, residing. in Walker's-
court, Saho, and Francis Tompkins, his servant, were
summoned before Mr. Hardwick, on a charge of throwing,
or placing filth and soil in the common setter.
Inspector 73eresiOrd, of the C division, stated the case.
which was, that the whole of the three parties having
been engaged in infringing the provisions of the Act of
Parliament, under which the present proceedingi were
institute], by pouring soil and filth into the sewer in
the street, he deemed it his duty to obtain separate
summonses, in order that the really offending party
might be fixed upon. The Act of Parliament in ques-
tion was the sth William IV., cap. 21 see. 70, commonly
called " The St. Anne's Act," and the clause pointed
out enacted, " that it any Person should lay, cause, per-
mit, or sufl;:r to be thrown out, or laid, or to remain, any
ashes, dust, rubbish, offal, vegetables, blood, in, or upon
any carriage way, they shall be liable to a tine not ex-
ceeding 40s. The Inspector said he did not press for
heavy penalties, but would rather have nominal penalties
inflicted.
Mr. Farrell, the Inspector of Pavements, who was
accompanied by Mr. Greatorex, the Inspotor of Nui-
sances, stated .hut the stench ari,ing from what had
been p aired into the sett er. was so great that he was
was obliged to order an extra water cart down to stifle it.
Mr. 11AnDwIcK inquir, d of the Polics. Inspector why-
he had summoned these persons.
Tbe Inspector replied that the facts the case were
simply these : Gathergood had ordered a dr,in to be
emptied and poured into the street. Mr. Mudd had
emptied the contents into pails and handed it to To.np-
kins, his servant, who, acting under his orders, had
thrown it into the street.
Mr. HARDwICK observed that such conduct was not
only an infring,thent.of the Act of Pardanent. but 0-x-
-nicious to health in so cloSe a neighbouremal.
Mudd said that he had told Tompkins to take the soil
and throw it into en adoining stable-yard.
Mr. Farrell observed that if it had be, n thr.,wn in•,
an adjoining stable-yard that wool' have bt-en an equal
offence under the Act of Parliament.
After some further discussion, Mr. Hardwick fined
Gathergood, as the primary cause, the sum of 10s. and
costs. The other defendants were discharged with a
caution.

The Post again attacks Government for its advocacy
of free-trade principles, observing—" The Conservative
Ministers of the Crown have undoubtedly lent their
sanction to the principles of free trade; nor do the Con-
servative Ministers of the Crown repudiate the hypo-
thesis that they may soc.n be leading on the Cobdens
and Villierses to fresh triumphs over the productive in- NEW MODE or DYING.-13y lying flat upon a mill-

r IBC, ,%;!i!9 these demon •
hem on every• aide. 'i :‘, • grapple with th
principles of their enemies, nor hazard an exposition e.
their own views. Yet the times xvOuld not seem to bt
especially conducive to apathy ! nor are the apathetic
found, in this country, to exercise any remarkable shays
of influence over public opinion."
The following is from the Times :-----" The debate in
the House of Commons on the Maynooth grant, on Wed-
nesday evening, was disgraceful in its tone to some of
the speakers on both sides, and we heartily trust it will
be the last of its kind. It is not the smallest of the ob-
jections to grants of this description, that they provoke
discussions just sufficiently theological to display all ffe
rancour and venom of controversy, without being re-
deemed by one .single spark of religious feeling. It is
not by acrimonious invective against classes or indivi-
duals that either the Protestant or the liomen Catho-
lic can produce an impression. Neither pal ty can s:ani
the test of such a criticism ; there are IV2 at
M'Hales on the one side, there are Greggs and M'Ghevs
on the other ; on both sides there are lib n eminent
piety, charity, loyalty, and other virtues, and on both
sides there is a majority not distinguished from their
neighbours either try good or by evil qualities. The,
favourers of the Orange Association and the toasters of
the battle of the Diamond have no right to complain of
a tenuency to anti-social confederacies and political tur-
bulence in their opponents : the anathemas of Exeter
Hall are not milder than those of the Corn Exchange ;
the juries which acquit Protestant mur-h-rers are net
less perjured than those who do the same office of coin-
purgation for Roman Catholic offenders. Granted, that
we hear more of violence, and outrage, and unchristian
and illegal proceedings on the Popish side ; but this is
sufficiently accounted for by the great preponderance of
numbers and physical strength on that side, while the
balance of temporal recognition and favour (we speak
not of civil but of religious privileges) is as decidedly on
the other."
The Chronicle thus alludes to the Report of Mr. Roe-
buck's Committee—" The impatience of the Times is at
length gratified, and the Report.of Mr. Roebuck's Com-
mittee, together with the evidence taken before it, are
at last on the table of the House. We doubt whether
our Contemporary and his political friends will find
much subject of congratulation in Ihe document fi,r
which the) hate been o, Mooing ao lustily. •Most
tiredly it is no tuact,,r o; pride co the pootic,l part)
with which we are connected, because, in the trans-
actions exposed by the Committee, Liberals are about
as deeply and extensively implicated as their
opponents. But the country is permanently and
greatly serv,d by the aut., entic exposure of a sy. ton
deeply prejudicial to public liberty and public moraity ;
and, however painful the exposure now made ma) be to
persons for whom we have the highest respect, we can-
not but rejoice that it has been made in such a manner
as must, we believe, lead to the extirpation of the present
fiml abuses of our representative system. The re-
port is drawn up with great conciseness, clear-
ness, and temper. his founded, with hardly an exc. p-
