ELECTION OF CIIY TOWN
CLERK.

A great sensation was occasoned yesterday amongst
the members of the Corporation by the issue of the tbl-
lowing information from the Committee of Sergeant
Merewether, who is a candidate for the office of Town
Clerk :

" ELECTION OP TOWN CLERK.

London, 6th May, 1842.

" It appearing to the undersigned reerees.,from the
documents subuntted.to them, and from the statement of
Hardwick, that Mr. C. Pearson did, by his note of
Wednesday, the 9th of March, to the Chairman of the
unplodged voters at a meeting held that day', offer to
retire from the contest for the office of Town Clerk to
the City of London, if a gentleman, who he.admits to
have known was Sergeant Mereweather, - should be
brought forward, and having taken no steps to with-
draw that proposal before Friday, the 11th of March,
when it was formally_announeed to him that Mr. Ser
geant Mereweather had consented to become a candi-
date, they are of opinion , that Mr. C. Pearson ought to
retire from the contest ; but they desire at the spine
time most unequivocally to declare that no imputation
derogatory to the character of a gentleman and a man
of honour can attach to him in having pursued his can-
vass under the impression which he and his Committee,
received, that he was absolved from his promise by the
verbal communication which passed between him and
the Chairman of the unpledged voters at the same meet-
ing on the 9th of March, but which impression the un-
dersigned referees consider erroneous.
(Signed) " WILLIAM THOMPSON,
C. RUSSELL,
THOMAS WILSON."

The copy of the opiniorittfdt;;efe.3 trans-
mitted to each member of the CorporatiAt by Mr. Burro,
the secretary to Mr. Sergeant Mereweather's Committee.
We understand, that upon receiving the opinion of
the referrees, Mr. C. Pearson immediately gave up all
thoughts of persevering in the contest. of his success in
which not the slightest doubt was entertained previously
to the reference. _Mr. Sergeant Mereweuth,r and Mr.
Wm. Pritchard are now therefore the only candidates
for the office. Of course the candidates fur the office of
City Solicitor, which would have become vacant if Mr.
Pearson had not consented to submit the matter to a re-
ference, have ceased to canvass,

It receives the infant orphan only, and there is none other of
its kind. Its purpose is to board, clothe, nurse, and educate
these children until after seven years of age, when they become
eligible f.-.r admission into other institutions. Infants only six
weeks old, both fatherless and motherless, have been received
into the Asylum. Nearly 200 children are now in the esta-
blishment, comprising the orphans of clergymen, of officers in
the army and navy, of merchants, and other respectable classes.

into the qualification of the votes was proceeded with, and one
vote was struck off the poll. As the examinations of the wit-
nesses are entirely confined to the value of the holdings, and
other points affecting the occupation and qualifications, they
possess no general interest. The scrutiny was proceeding up
to the adjournment.

' judge- and jury for the adjudication of patent—rights,
Mr. Carpmael states reasons of objection which appear
colourable ; he also apprises his readers of a recent
decision, by which an inventor, intending to take
patents in England, Scotland, and Ireland, must have
them all sealed before putting the invention into public
use, and before enrolling the specification in either
country; so that an invention, being in public use in
England before the sealing of a patent in Scotland,
renders the Scotch patent void ;—of this patentees
will make due observance. In conclusion, we have
to advise Mr. Carpmael's book as one highly valuable
to all more or less interested in patents.

REGISTRATION OF DESIGNS, IN ORDER

TO SECURE COPYRIGHTS.

The object of this sixpenny pamphlet is to elucidate
the sections of the last and preceding Parliamentary
Acts relative to the registration of designs ; and it
carries out its purport in a commendable and twofold
manner by pointing out not only the true and un-
mistakeable sense of their divers clauses, but also the
erroneous constructions which have been put upon
them, thereby to guard against untoward repetition,
or committal of the same.

THE BISHOP OF JERUSALEM.

Dr.. BOWRING said, that although he had for
the present.withdrawn the notice he had given respect-
ing this Prelate, he (Dr. Bowring) was sorry to learn
that some of the events he had rpprehended had already
occurred, in consequence of the preCipitate sending of
Dr. Alexander to Jerusalem. A report had reached
him (Dr. Bowring) ' that the Bishop had been treated
with much ill-usage. He (Dr. Bowring) wished to
ask the Right Honourable Baronet whether such a
report had reached the Government ; and if so, whether
the Government had taken any measures to protect the
person of the Bishop, or for his removal from a scene
where it would be very difficult for lii:n to gut rd agrinst
the hostilities of the various Christian sects, and of the
Jews?
Sir R. PEEL was aware. that in some parts of Syria
efforts had been made .to Stir. lip hostilities against the
mission, but no account whatever had reached the'
Government that the BiShoP had been ill-treated.
been There might no doubt be a:hostile feeling against tbe.
Bishop, but he (Sir R. Peel),liad received no account to
the effect that his personal security had endangered.

LEGACY AND PROBATE DUTIES.
Mr. ELPHINSTONE gave
.übtice that he would, after
Easter, move that the legacy and probate duty upon
real property should be of the same amount hereafter
as that to which personal property is now liable.
TEMPERANCE IN IRELAND.
Mr. CALEB PO WELL begged leave to ask the Right
Honourable Baronet, the First Lord of the Treasury,
whether he was in
_possession of any official information
from which he might infer that habits of temperance
were, or were not, progressively extending among the
people of Ireland ?—(lfear, hear.)
Sir R. PEEL said, that he was not in possession of any
official information upon the sul3ject, and he begged leave

PUBLIC ACCOUNTS.

Mr. WILLIAMS asked why the revenue accounts of
the Duchy of Lancaster for the past year, which had
been laid on the table of the House, had not yet been
printed; and why the revenue accounts of the Duchy of
Cornwall had not yet been laid on the table?
Sir G. CLERK said, the Duchy of Lancaster accounts
had been referred to the Printing Committee, who had
not yet reported on them, and the delay in the presenta-
tion of the Duchy of Cornwall accounts had
been occasioned by the alterations rendered
necessary in them, in consequence of the
birth of his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales.
He hoped, however, to be able to lay those accounts on
the table the first day after the Easter recess.
Mr. WILLIAMS said that there had been no account
printed of balances and arrears in the hands of Govern-
ment officers since the year 1830. He wished to know
if the Right Hon. Gentleman proposed presenting any
such return for the present year?
Sir G. CLERK said, that the return of the names of
officers having arrears and balances in their hands
on any particular day would consist principally of the
names of the deputy-postmaster& These accounts had
not been printed, because they had been considered as
useless. If the Hon. Member chose to move for them
for the present year, ho would not object.
Mr. WILLIAMS thought that as'those accounts had
not been printed for the last ten years, it was desirable
that the account for the last year should be printed.

PUBLIC OPINION.

The Post says:—" The income tax is not enormous. It is not
as if the tax-collector came in to sweep away a half, or a quarter,
or even a tenth. He asks but sevenpence in the pound. Un
deubtedly this must bear more hardly upon those whose income is
comparatively small, and who have a great deal with it ; but this
mu.-t be the case with any tax. The inequality is less in the income
tax than in any other."
The Herald observes, with reference to the income tax :—" Sir
Robert Peel ought to have been convinced, by the expressions of
opinion which were made by several of his own supporters, that a
modification of his proposal is most desirable. There was from be.
hind the Treasury benches a very general denunciation of the in
justice and odiousness of a tax on income, and though the Right
Hon. Baronet is not threatened by secession from the ranks which
enable him to beat down political and factious opposition, he must
by this time clearly see that much of the support which he receives
is from hands and not from hearts—is given from compulsion and
not with free will—is accorded from considerations of party ne.
cessity, and not from mental conviction. Such support, no one
knows better than the Premier, is most dangerous to place reliance on.
The Times contains the following remarks, suggested by the late
debates in the French Chambers:—" If the commercial policy of
England was really that jea ou: and tyrannical monster which the
readers of the French newspapers believe it to be, France might
have no difficulty in detaching the minor maritime States from a I
intercourse with us. But it happens, that in spite of the restric.
tive character of some part of our commercial laws, we have al-
ready formed relations of some hundred years' standing with most
of )hose minor Powers, and consequently they have been the last
to surrender and the first to resume the alliance of England when
all Europe was forced into a league against us."
The following is from the Chronicle :—" The feature most
striking in the discussion, on the income tax is the determination
of the Tories to avoid taking any part in it. There can be hill,
difficulty in discovering their motive. They know that an income
tax never can be made palatable to the country, and that to advo.
cate it in the House would excite the indignation of their consti-
tuents. Besides, the financial plan of Sir Robert Peel leaves hardl!,
a single interest in the country untouched ; and the Tory Members
know that they cannot open their mouths on the subject of it with-
out being liable to misconception, and consequently making ene-
mies. Under such circumstances, it is not at all surprising that
they should remain obstinately silent, and allow the discussion to
be one-sided."

law, Mrs. Williams, at Whixall, by the admixture of arsenic in
some dumplings, whereby her death was occasioned, after full in.
vestigation of the case at the Shrewsbury Assizes, on Tuesday last,
was declared by the Jury " Not Guilty."
The bankruptcy case of Messrs. Williams and Mottram, the
late extensive linen-drapers of Wood-street, Cheapside, came on
before Mr. Commissioner Evans, at Basinghall.street, yesterday.
Among the disclosures made, was that of selling goods to a very
large amount, greatly under prime cost, to raise money at times of
pressure. Their debts and liabilities are estimated at 100,0001.,
and their assets are expected to reach to only 10,0001. The pro.
ceedings are at present adjourned for the production of books and
papers.

On two wretched women being brought before Sir Peter Laurie,
at the Mansion House, yesterday, charged with having threatened
to break windows, it was stated by Gooch, the turnkey of the Gilt-
spur-street Compter, that for twenty-two years he had never seen
that place of refuge In so crowded a state. Captain Kingdade, the Go.
vernor of Bridewell, stated by letter, that in that prison from 40
to 50 persons were obliged to lie upon the floor. Whitecross-etreet
is equally crowded to excess.

Jones Jones was executed,at Mansfield, for the murder of Mary
Hallam, net Tuesday morniag last.

ADJOURNMENT OF THE HOUSE.

pct the reading of the Order of the Day for the Com-
mittee on the Corn Duties Bill,

Sir It PEEL said. that as he could not expect to make
any progress in the Bill before the recess, so as to
send it to the Lords, he should now (as he stated his
intention last night to do) move the postpOnement of the
order to Monday, the 4th of April.
Mr. lIAWES, with respect to the timber duties, ex-
pressed his satisfaction with the announcement of the
Right Hon. Gentleman's intention to allow a long inter-
val before the operation of thenew duties. But he wished
to call the Right Hon. Gentleman's' attention to the pre-.
sent mode of taking the duty, which, in'the opinion of
the trade, ought to be by bale, and nOt by measurement.

Sir B. i'Ek.;.L said, he had to strike a balance between
'the consumer and the trade ; but he could not hold out
any expectation of a long interval; which. would have the
effect of conferring .a temporary monopoly upon those
who had large stocks on hand, as well as causing a suspen-
sion of trade. As to the mode of taking the duty, there
was no difficulty in taking it by cubic Measurement on
timber in the lug but he thought that in the case of
deals there was the grossest injustice occasioned by thae
mode of measurement, which had also the effect of exclu-
ding the timber of some nations entirely from our market:
He had had some communications with gentlemen on
the subject of presenting impediments to the revenue,
and affecting its colleetion on all classes of timber, and
the question was under his attentive consideration.
HAND-LOOM WEAVERS.
Mr. WODEHOUSE gave notice, that after Easter he
would draw the attention of the House to the Report of
the Commissioners in 1841 on the condition of the hand-
loom weavers; also that he would move for certain re-
turns'respecting poor-rates, county-rates, and other im-
posts.

PAR.I.IAMEbi TART.

The Royal Assent was given by Comm:ssion to several Bills,
and then the Peers adjourned for the Easter holidays till April 7th.
According to a statement made by Mr. Gladstone, in answer tf,
Mr. Hawes, the tariff is still 'very incorrect, and the Right Hon.
Gentleman hopes it may be corrected during the Easter holidays.
In reply to Mr. P. M. Stewart, Sir R. Peel stated that he knew
that there was an unusual quantity of timber on hand which hat.
paid duty, that it had been imported in anticipation of an increase
of the timber duties, and that he would make no drawback or al-
lowance whatever on account of the timber, but he will allow of a
long interval before his new duties come into operation.
The Right Hon. Baronet postponed further proceedings with the
Corn- keeping-out. Bill till after Easter.
Dr. Bowring, interesting himself for the Bishop of Jerusalem,
extorted from Sir Robert Peel that the Bishop had not been kindly
treated.

Mr. Elphinstone gave notice of a motion after Easter to levy a
probate and legacy duty on real equal to personal property.
Sir R. Inglis persists, he said, in his determination to inflict,
after Easter, moro churches on us, if he can.
The House went into a Committee on Ways and Means, and
discussed the income tax for the remainder of the evening.

THE BISHOP OF JERUSALEM.

- Dr. BOWRING said, that although he had fur
the present withdrawn the notice he had given respect-
ing this Prelate, he (Dr. Bowring) was sorry to learn
that some of the events he had apprehended had already
occurred, in consequence of the precipitate sending of
Dr. Alexander to Jerusalem. A report had reached
hith (Dr. Bowring) that. the Bishop had been treated
with Much ill-usage. •He (Dr. Bowring) wished to
-ask the Right Honourable Baronet
.whether such a
report had reached the Government ; and if so, whether
the Government had taken any measures to protect the
person of the .Bishop, or- for his removal from a scene
where it would be very difficult for him to guard against
- the hostilities of the various Christian sects, and of tha
Jews?

Sir R. PEEL was aware that in some parts of Syria
efforts had been made to stir up hostilities against, the
mission, but no account whatever had reached the
Government that the Bishop had- been ill-treated.
There might no doubt be a hostile feeling against the
Bishop, but he (Sir It. Peel) had received no account to
the elect that his personal security kad been endano•ered.

her cargo overboatd, This morning, in getting under wei,h to
come into harbour to repair, b, f,rc sufficient sail wai got upon her,
a squall from the n,•rth-west drove her on shore, between the rocks,
broadside on to the westward of the entrance of the harbour, oppo-
site Earl De Grey's villa ;the tide nearly left her at low water. She
does not appear to have received any damage yet, but as there is a
ledge of rocks on each side of her, she is in a dangerous situation.
There are a number of men employed lightening her, and three
barges lying off, ready to be put alongside as soon as there is suffi-
cient water for them. Marry expect that a sufficient quantity of
her cargo (sugar and rum) will be got out idto tnem to enable her
to float off next tide. The pilot is considered highly to blame for
not having more able assistance with him as the Spanish crew
could not understand him, nor ht• them.
The English ship Providence, Captain Williams, having repaired
damages, will sail for Aden to-morrow.

Burials in churches have in former times occasioned exten-

this corps occasioned a very dangerous disease in a whole con-
