eihiteo-
single point in Mr. Duncombe's speech. There is no occasion for
more. His own words will always best express his own meaning :
" I come now to the last,charge. I stated that my correspondence
had been violated and my letters opened. Now, upon this the Com-
mittee are perfectly silent. I, in my place, stated this in the first in-
stance. I had only been informed that my letters going to the Albany
had been detained for the ptirpose of opening. One gentleman said,
01l elitinet stippose this?' I said, 'lt is very odd.' He re-
plied, • They could not be so mean and shabby.' But though tit:.
Committee is silent upon it, I now will prove that my letters were
ordered to be detained and inspected, and opened on the authority of
the Right Hon. Baronet. Now, I must say that I feel degraded in
admitting this : I think it is a degradation for any Member of the
Howse of Commons to know and feel that he is a worthy object of
Suspicion to Warrant the Secretary of State for the Home Department
to insult him and to open his letters. I cannot conceive a greater
personal insult ; or a greater insult to the constituency a man repre-
sents —a constituency large, enlightened; and numerous; the repre-
sentative, not the nominee of a rotten borough. It becomes, therefore,
not only an insult to me, but a gross insult to the constituency I
have the honour to represent. I will go further : if my some-
spondence is not to be free, I am not a fit representative. And
in the name of that constituency I call on the Right lion.
Baronet again to justify, if he can, the opening of my letters.
I know not what story he may have trumped up to this Committee
of the Commons, or that Committee of the Lords, but I say he owes
it to me, to this House, and he owes it to m 3 constituents to tell you,
and to tell them, the justification upon which he ordered my letters
to be opened. I asked him before, and he talked about my vapour-
ing.' I asked him again and said, 'IS it true ? I hardly belieye it.'
He said, I must know I was asking a question which it was not
consistent with his duty to answer.' Then, how stands that question
between me and the Right Hon. Baronet ? If ,a Member in his
place asks the Right Hob: 'Baronet whether, in the exercise of his
functions, he has opened that Member's letters, and he finds that that
Secretary of State, while he has had the meanness—aye, the baseness,
to conceal his act, has not had the courage topyow it."
Now, it does not require a moment's consideration to see that such
a charge, not against any one public officer, but against some part or
other of the Executive, cannot be suffered to remain unexplained ; a
man might as well think to hobble on with a broken limb. The
wound must either be healed or fester. Mr. Duncombe may have
behaved very cavalierly, or the Committee of last session very out-
rageously or very stupidly. Those are minor questions. The fact at
present is, that a. Member of Parliament charges the Executive with
what a civilised country considers almost the greatest of violences
and dishonesties. We cannot see why Mr. Duncombe should not
have what he demands—a Committee, through which, if not in which,
he may ask the questions he wishes. He declares himself able and
anxious to produce certain important evidence. Opportunity is the ruin
of false pretenders. If it is wished to put this gentleman hors decombat
for the session, at least clear a space, and let him have room to realise his
boast. But it is ridiculous to say the Commiftee of last year was cal-
culated either ,to verify or to convict his statements. Sir James
boasts that it contained a majority of his political opponents. Who
are Sir James's political opponents ? Who are his friends? The so-
cial relations by which he is best known to the political world cannot
be expressed in the terms of friendship, whether positive or negative.
If we try to divide the Committee according to this imaginary rule,
we find it hard to say which is which. Who are the conventional
friends, who the real friends ? Even after acquiescing in Sir James's
reckoning, four on his own side, and five on Mr. Duncombe's, one
finds oneself involuntarily cross-dividing and analyzing afresh. Sir
James lavishes his praises on his Committee. Of course he is bound
to praise them, for he selected them. He is praising his own
work, and a man loves his own work, because, as an ancient
philsopher tells us, "it is part of a man's own self." They
are not above his praise, for they are certainly not the most eminent
and able of their parties. If we had the choice of a committee, how-
ever, we should not be governed in our selection entirely by party
politics. Sir James's experience of public life has taught him long
before this that facility of character and private understandings, not
to say obligations, are far more to the purpose than mere party dif-
ferences. But friends, or not friends, the Committee could only judge
according to the evidence ; and they would not allow Mr. Dun-
combe's own private wrong to come fairly before them. The charge
having been made, and the opportunity of explanation thus far de-
nied, we are bound, in justice to Mr. Duncombe, to the Legislature of
which he is a Member, and the constituency which he represents, to
believe that his letters have been delayed and opened. Let us take
the supposition most favourable for the Home-office. Let us suppose
that Mr. Duncombe, with the usual instinct of an injured man, un-
able to detect the author of the blow, seeks to vent his wrath on
the most prominent of the adverse crowd, and pass the
blow on to somebody, it not exactly to the right
quarter. A certain phantasm of" Mas-ter James •• Gra-ham" peep-
ing into his neighbour's letters has possessed Mr. Duncombe's mind,
and with the knowledge that 1118 own letters have been hocussed, he
joins the two ideas together—the person and the thing. One is dis-
posed to put the Home-office out of the question, because really the
Hon. Member for Finsbury is not a person to excite much political
trepidation. lie is rather too above-board for that. Eminent in his
own line, great at a Reform banquet, powerftil on the hustings, and
not inconsiderable in Parliament, he is not the man to devote his
days to agitation, and his nights to conspiracy. However he may
deal with the constitution of his country, he will never undermine it.
At least, if our social fabric is so frail as to fear for any communica-
tions that gentleman is likely to transmit through the
penny-post, we can only say it is hardly worth preserv-
ing. If, however, so extraordinary a selection has been
made—if Mr. Duncombe has been elevated into the Guy Fawkes of
Conservatism—it is due to all parties, and especially to the gossipping
public, that a full disclosure should be mtPle. ,shocking as it would
be to discover a few score of his letters transcribed into the national
records, it would still be rather entertaining. By all means, insist
then, on a committee of inquiry. What if Mr. Duncombe had all
this time gone rather more deeply into it than people gave him credit
for? For example, suppose we should find a letter promising a largo
contribution In men and money to the Chartists ? Perhaps a hand-
some remittance in cash, which, under the circumstances, we think
the Home Secretary would almost be justified in diverting to the
public service. Has any one of the minor officials, of whom Sir J.
Graham speaks so highly, made a good hit on the turf lately ? Possibly
the circumstance may be explained by the discovery of a pri-
vate letter to Mr. Duncombe, containing the state of the odds at
Newmarket. Has a lady's billet been left unanswered ? Let her com-
plain of the Home Secretary. Have Mr. Duncombe's tradesmen
been surprised to find their mementos unacknowledged? What if we
should stumble on their bills, and " bills delivered," duly filed at the
Home-office? If the gentlemen there would not only open, but settle
the accounts, it would be some atonement for the wrong. That is a
price, however, which not even official curiosity will be ready to pay.
But whatever the subject-matter of a correspondence—whether an
invitation to a massacre or a dinner—whether an order for muskets or
dress boots—people generally prefer to keep it.tothernselves. They are
no better pleased to find their seals broken than their windows.
A tell-tale correspondence is as bad as a leaky water-pipe, or a
drain which unpleasantly reveals itself. Mr. Duncombe finds that
somebody is in possession of his secrets, worthless to everybody,
perhaps, but himself, but still no longer his secrets if only the post-
man possesses them. He goes to head-quarters in quest of the stolen
property. The Premier knows too well the misery of unfinished
work, and the inefficacy of half measures, to refuse Mr. Duncombe's
suit. The Committee of last year made a show of research ;it began
with Edward 11., and quoted abundance of Latin, old Norman, and
Italian documents ; but it just stopped short of Mr. Duncombe'a last
charge, expressed in plain modern English, and read by every man in
the nation. This one omission was fatal. It was like amputating a
limb, and just neglecting the one thing wanting to complete the pro-
cess—the tying up of the artery. Quashed this session, the squabble
goes on to the next. Set it at rest. Give Mr. Duncombe fall play,
and he will either do for himself or Sir James Graham.—Times.

"We regard the work before us, the Silent Friend,' as a work
embracing most clear and practical views of a series of complaints
hitherto little understood, and passed over by a ma;ority of the me-
dical profession, for what reason we are at a loss to know. We must
however confess that a perusal of this work has left such a favourable
impression on cur minds, that we not only recommend, but cordially
wish every one who is the victim of past folly, or suffering from indis-
cretion, to profit by the advice contained in its pages."—Age and Argus.
" The authors of the ' Silent Friend' seem to be thoroughly con-
versant with the treatment of a class of complaints, which are. we
fear, too prevalent in the present day. The perspicuous style in
which this book is written, and the valuable hints it conveys to those
who are apprehensive of entering the marriage state, cannot fail to
recommend to it a carelhl perusal."—Era.

BONE CRUSHING. —lt appears that in certain
unions the paupers—compelled by the local board—crush bones. Sir
James Graham objects to the practice ; Lord Ebrington defends it ;
Wakley, with indignation, denounces It. Now, we have much ad-
miration of Mr. Wakley. Ile gives to things their proper names.
Ile culls a rogue a rogue, and a fool a fool ; we like his out-speaking
(whatever Mr. Roebuck, that bit of blighted notoriety, may think of
it). Nevertheless we cannot side with Mr. Wakley in this matter of
bones. We think their is a fitness of purpose—a felicity of idea—in
compelling paupers to crush bones. Their bones are crushed, and
wherefore should they not crush, the bones of other things ?—Punch.
MEETING OF THE LIVERPOOL WEST INDIA ASSO-

in favour of a reduction of the duty upon molasses to 3s. per cwt. A
great disinclination, however, appeared to be entertained to interfere
with the Government measures, which are looked upon as most•
favourable to the West Indian Planters, lest anything of an obnoxious
character should creep into the mind of the Premier. Otherwise, the
West Indian party have no objection to such a reduction of colonial
molasses.—Nandie.ster Guardian.

LADY CECILIA FARRENCOURT. A NOVEL. BY
HENRY MILTON, EBQ --It affords us real pleasure to be
,
able fully to confirm in our report on Mr. Milton's
second work of fiction, the high anticipations which were
excited by his first book, entitled " Rivalry." We have
no hesitation in saying that " Lady Cecilia Farrencourt"
very greatly surpasses it. In excellence of plot, which
is the most important, yet incomparably the rarest fea-
ture of a modern novel, the present work has been
equalled by very few recent productions of a similar
kind ; and in its general knowledge of actual life in all
its phases, it is worthy to stand beside the productions of
the writer's distinguished relative, Mrs, Trollope ; there
are scenes of humour
andof satire in it that would in no
degree discredit that inimitable writer. The two lead-
ing characters of the work are the incomparable Lady
Cecilia herself, and the indescribable and inimitable Mr.
Simon Cummins Allnut, the one representing the highest
and most superfine of our May-fair aristocracy, and the
other being an equally significant type of that apper-
taining to the City ; the aristocracy of the breeches
'pocket and the baiiker's book. The capital way in
which these two individuals are played off against each
other throughout the work affords scope for an unfail-
ing succession of interest and entertainment, and for
several scenes that are not surpassed in any similar fic-
tion of the last few years.---Aava/ and Military Gazette.

Alexander Stewart, Esq., father of the Irish bar'
and the oldest magistrate in Downshire, died at his seat,

A MAN KILLED ON WATERLOO-BRlDGB.—Yester-
day forenoon as a loaded waggon belonging to Messrs. Mumford,
corn-merchants, was proceeding from the Surrey to the Middlesex
side of Waterloo-bridge, a man in attendance on it very foolishly
rested himself on the shaft, and from some cause unknown he fell
into the road. A cry was raised to stop the horses, but before that
could be accotnplished, the fore-wbeej had passed over'both the poor
fellow's thighs. He waa.soon, raised from the ground by some per-
sons passing ; but, after uttering two or three groans, he expired.

SAY MA.BILETS.

PONTOP AND SOUTH lELDS
RAILWAY COMPANY.—(THIS DAY.)
The usual half-yearly general meeting of the Shareholders
in the Pontop and South Shields Railway was held-this day,
in Guildhall-buildings, Mr. Robert Stephenson, Chairman of
the Board of Directors, in the chair.
The report stated that, notwithstanding the interruption
of the general trade upon this line, for the space of four
months in the past year, arising from the strike of the
pitmen, the result of the year's traffic had proved to be fully
equal to that of 1843, and the Directors were much gratified
in finding that the anticipations which they entertained at
the last half-yearly meeting had been realised.. The receipts
for the half-year, to the 31st December last, were 34,158/.
1 ls. 10d., and the expenditure for the same period was
22,401/. 16s. 4d., leaving a balance of 11,756/. 158. 6d.,
which sum was chargeable with an interest upon the Mort-
gage and Loan Debt, amounting to 5,2901. 17s. 3d., leavings
balance applicable to a dividend of 6,4651. 18s. 3d. The Di-
rectors of the Durham Junction Company had paid over to
this Company the sum of 35,375/., and the further sum of
18,0001. was received in Jan. last, being the proportion of the
purchase-money of the Durham Junction Railway for the
400 shares held by the late Stanhope and Tyne Com-
pany in that undertaking, and which formed part of
the assets assigned under the provisions of the Mt
of Incorporation to the Pontop and South Shields Company.
It was proposed at once to write up this amount to the credit
of the share account of each proprietor of shares in this Com-
pany, at the rate of 81. 10s. for each share. A furtherr-
tion of the Debenture Debt of the late Stanhope and Tyne
Company had been paid off, amounting to 5,2.52/. 111.2 d.
There now remained of the liabilities of that Company the sum
of 35,500/. only, of which 14,500/. will be due in June or
July this year, and the remainder in the years 1847 and
1849. To meet the payment of the 14,5004 the Directors
proposed making a call of 1/. 10s. a share, giving credit for
Si. 10s. a share, received of the Durham Junction Company.
and requiring payment in cash of 11. 10s. only per
share, which would be amply sufficient ,to meat
the required payment. Arrangements were pending
with the Newcastle and Darlington Company, which, when
sufficiently matured would be submitted to the Proprietory,
and it was hoped that a considerable increase of revenue
might be looked for from the complete development of the
resources of that line. The remission of the duty on
coals for export might also be expected materially
to influence that portion of the trade upon the line, which
depended upon foreign supply. The Directors closed their
report with congratulating the Proprietors upon the pros-
perous state of the undertaking, which was now placed on a
firm basis, affording a safe and certain return upon the capital
invested with every prospect of a considerable increase at no
distant period.
The report having been received and adopted, a dividend
of 30s. per share, being equal to 5/ per cent. per annum upon
the paid up capital, was declared, and ordered to be paid im-
mediately.
Messrs. Grant and Wood were then re-elected Directors,
and a vote of thanks to the Chairman having been agreed to,
the meeting separated.
