LAW INTELLIGENCE.

The Vice-Chancellor of England on Wednesday decided
that railway debentures are not within the statute of
mortmain, but that bank shares are.
CURIOUS ANOMALY.—By the General Turnpike Act
of George 111. an exemption from toll is provided for in
the cases of Dissenters and their families attending public
worship, but not for clergymen of the Established Church.
Mr. Tidd Pratt has decided that a special constable
does not belong to her Majesty's service, and therefore a
benefit society which had expelled a member on that
ground, in accordance with their rules, had acted illegally.
THE DUTY OF A POLICEMAN.—In the course of a trial
at the North Lancashire Assizes just terminated, t'he po-
liceman by whom the prisoner had been taken into cus-
tody, stated that the latter was about to make a statement
to him, when he advised him not to say any thing, as it
might be used to his prejudice. Mr. Baron Alderson told
the constable he had no business to do anything of the
kind. It was his duty to preserve a neutral position—
neither to induce a prisoner to criminate himself, nor to
deter him from making such a statement.
UNJUSTIFIABLE SALE OF CARGO BY A CAPTAIN.—In
the Court of Common Pleas, on Monday, the case of
" Millbank v. Nutting and another," one of some inte-
rest to the mercantile community, was decided. It was
an action of trover by the plaintiff, a merchant in London,
and owner of a cargo of salt shipped at Liverpool on board
the barque Triton, to be discharged at Calcutta, to recover
damages against the defendants, the owner and master of
the Triton, for an alleged unjustifiable and disadvantageous
sale of the cargo by the latter at Bahia, in South America,
which sale took place in consequence of the unfit state of
the vessel to proceed on its onward voyage to Calcutta.
The Lord Chief Justice (Wilde), in summing up the
case, said the sale should be. such a one as the law con-
sidered was a sale of necessity to furnish an answer. The
jury found for the plaintiff,—damages £725.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.—MONDAY.
On the order of the day for the third reading of the
Habeas Corpus Suspension (Ireland) Bill,

The usual Irish debate followed.
The house having divided, the third reading was carried
by 117 to 23.
Lord Jouti RUSSELL then rose to move a committee of
the whole house on the oaths to be taken by members of
the two houses of Parliament. The noble lord, who said
he did not propose to interfere with the oaths to be taken
by Roman Catholics, read the form of the oath to be sub-
stituted for the present oath of abjuration (and which he
had taken from the report of 1845), which contained the
words " on the true faith of a Christian," but he proposed
that these words should be omitted when the oath was
administered to a member of the Jewish religion. In the
belief that his proposition would deer away ambiguities,
and make the whole system defensible and justifiable, he
asked the house to go into committee.
_ .

Mr. GOULBURN, whilst he did not oppose the motion
of going into committee, protested against being supposed
to adopt the principle of Lord J. Russell's proposition.
Mr. PLUMPTRE opposed the whole measure, and would
divide the house on this its first stage.
After a debate, the house divided on the original mo-
tion, which was carried by 214 to 111,

POETRY

DO I FORGET THEE

From a volume of exquisite poems, by T Ouseley.)

Go in the summer, when the morning breaketh,
nd all around is lull'd 'midst placid light;
When the sweet tiny field-flower awaketh.
And softly sighs its perfume exquisite
Behold the lark, up to the clear sky winging,
Thrilling aloud his luscious free-born notes ;
From this bright speckled breast the dew-drops flinging,
Away, away, till lost to sight be floats :
Doth not the field-flower love the coming morning,
Unclosing every leaf to drink the •ight ?
Doth not the lark's eye swell to meet the dawning—
His wings spread strong, to reach his airy height ?
If flower and bird change not, why
q uestion me—
Do I forget thee?

Go, in the noontide, when the sun is g
To the deep forest—watch the pantir

The markets throughout this country and Ireland s
decline for nearly every article of the trade ; in some
of Ireland Indian Corn has receded from 2/6 @ 51 1„
The only exception, in which prices have been pretty
firmly supported, is farmers' Wheat; and the reason for
this article maintaining its value is the limited quantity
brought into the market by the British grower, and the
necessity which exists for mixing it with foreign. It must
not, however, be deduced from this that farmers gene-
rally are keeping back their supplies, as, with the excep-
tion of some wealthy parties, there is at Present ♦ery little

DAY MORNING, FEB. 27, 1840

WE are glad to find that the Mayor has convened
a public meeting on Thursday next, to take into
consideration the ministerial project relative to the
Navigation Laws. No doubt all classes of political
parties will unite on that occasion to resist so

shameful an infringement of vested interests

THE fate of the Liverpool Dock-rating Bill
excites little surprise in our minds. It is clear,
from the reports which we have heard of the re-
ception given to the deputation in support of the
bill, both by the ministry and by private members,
th '

the question is not at ad understood; and,
indeed, that statements of facts have. been put
forth by its opponents in Manchester and other
towns, which are the reverse of truth. It would
seem incredible, for instance, were we not assured
of its being the case, that a gentleman filling the
responsible office of President of the Board of Trade
could he ignorant of the fact, that the dock estate
of Liverpool is the only property of the kind in
the kingdom which does not contribute to the
local burthens. Yet thus uninformed was Mr.
Labouchere ; and we dare say that ninety-nine
members out of every hundred in Parliament were
equally ignorant, and prepared to treat tht.., claim
of the parish of Liverpool to he placed upon the
same footing as other parishes containing similar
public works, as an imposition, devised in a min-
gled spirit of selfishness and fraud. The repre-
sentatives of the Lancashire manufacturing inte-
rest, we spewed last week, from tip remarks of
their organ, the Manchester Guardian, were primed
upon the subject with downright falsehoods. Even
this week our contemporary is as little informed,
or bent upon perverting facts. We shall notice a
few specimens of his misrepresentations.
First, he assumes that we are about to levy
" some £40,000 or £50,000 a year" upon the Dock
Estate. The sum would not he £20,000. Our
contemporary next assumes that the docks of
Liverpool " are the property of the public." They
are not properly any such thing. They are under

mortgage to the bon

~,00lders; and the public have
not the slightest control over them. The Dock
Trustees might at any time double the dues, and
devote the surplus income to paying off the debt
or to the construction of new works, without Man-
er interests having a voice in the

chester or any oti

It is only a legal fiction which renders an
express statute to render them rateable necessary.
The Guardian treats with incredulity the fact that
any portion of the docks has been abstracted from
the rateable area of the parish, and says that,
even if it were so, it would amount to nothing,"
)d building ground into

matter

the value "Of the adja-

this moment, however, we are
out to convert a large area

THE LITURTOSI STANDARD.

FRANCE.

In the National Asseinbli on Wednesday, ;a division
took place on. the amendment to the eleetoralllaw pro-
posed by M. Pierre Leroux, rendering. all persons con-
victed of adultery ineligible to the Legislative Assembly,
when there appeared—for the amendinent,2B6 ; against
it, 229 ; majority, 57. The amendment was consequently
adopted.
Some disturbances of a rather serious character took
place at Niort, in the department of the Deux Sevres,
which were, however. suppressed. The anarchists threw
stones at the military, and had commenced two barri-
cades. The disturbance, which at first was only of a local

HOUSE OF COMMONS-FRIDAY

The House having resolved itself into committee upon
the Parliamentary Oaths Bill,
Lord J. RUSSELL moved his resolutions upon which to
found a bill for their alteration. _ _ _

Mr. V. SMITH said he thought that few things could be
more pernicious than to heve a multiplicity of oaths, and
believed the house would be conferring a great public
benefit if they diminished their number and simplified
their character. Those oaths, he was convinced, gave no
security whatever, and he, therefore, moved as an amend-
ment, that all parliamentary oaths be abolished, except
the oaths of fidelity and allegiance to her Majesty.

Lord J. RUSSELL entertained a different Opinion from
his hon. friend, and would, therefore, oppose the amend-
ment.

Mr. HuME warmly supported the amendment.
The house divided, and the amendment was negatived
by a majority of 140 to 68.
Mr. BANKES said, as the forms of the house would not
permit a second amendment to be moved to the resolu-
tions, he would postpone the one of which he had given
notice until the house should be in committee on the bill
itself. He would not oppose the resolutions, because he
would not object to any alteration of the oaths which
might be for the better ; but he would decidedly oppose
any alteration which could have the effect of admitting
Jews to Parliament. The hon. gentleman also suggested

the necessity of so framing the oaths to be taken that
dissenters might give the same securities to respect the
rights of the Established Church as were given by the
oath taken by Roman Catholics. .

Lord J. RUSSELL said the hon. gentleman was right in

HOUSE OF LORDS-FRIDAY

The Marquis of LANSDOWNE moved the second reading
of the Habeas Corpus Suspension (Ireland) Bill, and
stated the necessity of its continuance for the period pro-
posed by the Government.
Lord BROUGHAM supported the bill, the necessity for
which could not be doubted, and he only regretted that
the Government had not asked for those powers for a
longer time than was proposed by the bill.
