P.A.SLI.X.AIVIENT.AItY.

In the Hot:se of Lords, last night, there was a little conversa.
tion on the Irish Dissenters' Marriage Bill, which showed that the
Lord Chancellor is treated rather scurvily by his colleagues. On
Thursday evening white he was informing their Lordships that the
Bill was in preparation, Lord Eliot. was actually introducing
it into the House of Commons ; and last night the Lord
Chancellor excused the incorrect information he had given the
Lords, by saying that he had directed the Bill to be submitted to the
law officers of the Crown, and had expected it to be returned to
him. His colleagues, however, or his subalterns, appear to have
passed him by, and introduced the Bill into the House of Commons
without his sanction or knowledge. The Noble Lord appeared, by
what he said, not even to know the nature of the Bill. Is Lord
Lyndhurst getting as feeble in mind as he is in body? The Peers
did no business.

In the House of Commons Mr. Ward gave notice of a motion,
on the 10th of March, for a Committee to inquire into the burdens
on land, and also of hls intention to bring forward the Ballot ques.
tion after Easter.

The Dissenters' Marriage (Ireland) Bill was read a second time,
and was described as an enacting, not a declaratory Bill, with a re-
trospective effect
The Corn.laws again occupied the House of Commons to the
exclusion of all other business. Mr. Christopher moved his
scale in opposition to that of Sir Robert Peel, and supported, with
very elaborate arguments, the claim of the landlords to tax the
people's bread, even somewhat higher than Sir Robert Peel pro.
poses to tax it.

Mr. Baring follarded Mr. Christopher, and made some good hits
at the sliding scale, and at Sir Robert Peel. Mr. Gladstone made
a clever speech after Mr. Baring. A somewhat dull de.
bate occupied the House for the great part of the evening, till it
was enlivened by an excellent speech of Mr. T. Duncombe, who
made great sport of Mr. Christopher, dissected his election
speeches, and turned the laughter of the House on that Gentleman.
Ultimately Mr. Christopher, badgered from all sides, withdrew his
scale, in-order to allow the Conservatives to keep their ranks
united; and the Committee divided on Sir Robert Peel's, which
was carried. The House then resumed, and the Committee sits
again on Monday.
MONET—TRADE—COMTYZEIZCE.

At the meeting of the Directors and Proprietors of the Great
Western Railway, held on Thursday at the Company's Offices, it was
stated, that for the first six months during which their entire line
had been upened, they had realized an average traffic of about
13,0001, a week on the whole line ; or taking only that portion
which belonged excluLively to the Great Western, without the
Bristol and Cheltenham portions, tl e earnings had been 11,4001.
a week. The report recommended the sum of 20,0001. per annum
to meet the requisite repairs for the next sixteen years, and a divi-
dend of 6/. per cent. was declared for the last half year.

In the Court of Chancery the I.ord Chancelhir an-
nounced to Mr. Smith that her Majesty had' been
graciously' pleased to"appoint MM. her AttorneY-Ge-

crowded as it has been during this day,
..The number
of nest* appointments which 'have just taken place,
doubtless contributed, in a principal degree; "to pro-

the crowd.

Mr. Blackburne sat as Master of the Rolls ; the.

it is now said, will be the favoured • • •

Master Litton took possession of his,offiee yester-

The new Lord Mayor gave a very elegant dejeuner
yesterday •at ifie Mansion-house after the inaugura-

gentleman is a Protestant and a distiller of malt

manner, with his predecessor in office, who was
Roman Catholic and a tee-totaller.

We are extremely glad to learn, says.the Northern
Whig, that a paragraph., which was lately published.
respecting Sir _Francis, lllacnaghtens health, was

York, who had become bankrupt about two years ago,
would likewise be made so tar available to the estate
as to ensure a dividend upon the whole of 10s. in the
pound to the creditors.
This day being appointed for the bankrupt passing
his final examination, he stated that he became pos-
sessed of the American securities in lieu of goods
which were consigned to Mr. Hemlin at New York,
who sent back letters of credit upon Messrs. Sealy's
consignees in London. Shortly after Sealy's bank-
ruptcy a dividend was declared, and it was calculated
that about 10,000 dollars would be available in a few
months. He had proved for the full amount of his
debt against that estate. Having answered the usual
interrogatories, and sworn to the truth of his accounts,
he was declared entitled to pass his final examination.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

BOW-STREET.—(THIS DAY.)
It will be recollected that some time back we gave
an account of a robbery having been committed by a
man named Dash, who was at the time cohabiting
with the prosecutor's wife. Dash was also given into
custody for violently assaulting the prosecutor, Mr.
Helme, when he went to demand his wife.
Mr:Robertson appeared before Mr. Jardine this
morning to prefer a charge against Mary Robinson,
for harbouring the wife of the prosecutor, and the
prisoner Dash, who is in custody, knowing at the
same time that a felony had been committed. In
stating the case, he said that the prisoner resided at
151, Drury-lane. The prosecutor's wife was living
.with her. He went to her yesterday and inquired if
she had any property in the house belonging to -Mr.
Helene, and she said shejiad not. An officer was then
called in, and she immediately said " Stop, I will give
up the property." She then fetched about sixty pawn-
broker's duplicates for various articles belonging to
Mr. Heinle, and gave them to the officer. A. few days
ago the prisoner called at a gentleman's house in Long-
acre, where a card-case, valued at six guineas, had been
d. eposited by Mr. Helme. She asked for the case, stat-
ing that she came from Mrs. Helme. The case was
given up to her, and she wrote a receipt fcr it. The
case wa., afterwards pawned for 255.

CONFERENCE

• AND THE
GOVERNMENT MEASURE.

HALF-PAST SEVEN.

The Delegates walkei, about 600 in number, to the
gates of the House of Commons. Only 100 obtained
admittance ; the others were locked out.. Those who
had gained admission ,waited till the close of Sir R.
Peel's speech, and then adjourned to Brown's Coffee-
house, and, after serious deliberation, judged they
ought to express their opinion, as follows :-
44 At an adjourned meeting of the Anti-Corn-law
Deputies, held at• Brown's Hotel, Palace-yard, at half-
past seven this evening—Resolved unanimously—
" That, in the opinion of this meeting, the measure
just announced by her Majesty's Government, on the
subject of the Corn-laws, so far from holding
out the slightest prospect of any relief of the distress
of the country, is an insult to a patient and suf-
fering people; and the Deputies view such a proposal as
an indication that the landed aristocracy of this coun-
try are destitute of all sympathy for the poor, and are
resolved, if permitted by an outraged people, to persist
in a course of selfish policy, which will involve the de-
struction of every interest in the country.

" DUNCAN M'LAREN, Chairman."

Palace-yard, London, Wednesday Night, Nine o'Clock.
At a second Adjourned Meeting of the Members of
ConiVrence at Brown's Hotel, at nine o'clock, P.M., the
Deputies took into consideration the course which should
be pursued in the present position of the question, and
unanimously adopted the folio wing Resolutions, as ex-
pressive of their opinions, and agreed to recommend
them to the sanction of the General Conference :
", That the Deputies now present having further de-
liberately considered the proposition of her Majesty's
Government on the subject of the Corn-laws, this even-
ing announced in the House of Commons, deem it their
duty, on their own behalf, and in the name of their
constituents, to record their emphatic condemnation of
it, and their solemn protest against it, as a total denial
of the just demand of the' people of this country, and till
evincing a determination to perpetrate an oppressive and
unrighteous system, together with all the essential evils
which have hitherto resulted from the operation of the
existing Corn4aws."
" That the Anti-Corn-lawAssociations throughe,o
United Kingdom, and all other friends tek Wmediate
and total abolition of all duties, twi reatrictiQns upon
the necessary food of tl.kt pa coo, are earnestly requested
to take memure4 for expressing, without delay, in every
constitutional manner, their hostility to the propost4
measure of her Majesty's Government, and flied

the highest Barons of Hungary. At one of their castles is seen
their genealogical tree; the basis of whieh is a recumbent man,
out of which branches the several lines of their warriors and states..
men. At Eisenstadt, the present Prince has a stronghold, palace,
and troops of his own. The treasury of the house, which has ac.
cumulated for ages, is administered by a council of six lawyers.
