blished church than they support Eton College or West-
.minster School. The church is suppo?ted by itm own pro-
perty—property which belonged to it ages before one of
the present generation was born.—The editor of a revo-
lutionary paper, called the Spectator, seems to gloat upon
the prospect of that leaden age when the members of the
rch may be compelled to support their own temples,
and when, perhaps, it may be his luck to see " foxes.
stink and litter in St. Paul's." But we still trust that
there is strength enough in the ancient monarchical in-•
stitutions of our country to resist the violence of radical
enmity and the still more dangerous protection of whig
imbecility.

was 90h k. The 3 per Cents. are now shut for the dividend, as

LATEST PARLIAMENTARY INTELLIGENCE.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.—WEDNESDAY, June 5.

The Speaker took the chair at a quarter past twelve o'clock.
Several Bills passed through var►ous stages on the motions
of l►on. members.

Several petitions were presented and among them one by
Mr. GLADSTONE from the householders and merchants of
Portarlington, against the corrupt system of the corporation of
that borough. He was not one who was desirous of breaking
in iipon established institutions, but as abuses would creep into
those that were even the best regulated, it became necessary to
correct them when they proceeded to a certain extent; and he
was quite positive that no corporation could stand more in need
of correction than that of the borough he represented.
Mr. F. O'CoNNols said, as his motion the other night had not
produced any advantageous result in causing the Members of
Government to attend during the presentation of petitions, he
was determined, on every opportunity of their non-attendance,
when there was not a sufficient number of Members present,
to move that the House be counted. He did so on the present
occasion.

The SPEAKER suggested that he should withdraw hit motion
till after a member who was in attendance had taken the oaths.

...-...—. .
Mr. PENRUDDOCK then appeared at the table and took the
oaths. After which
Mr. F. O'CONNOR again moved that the House be counted,
when, there not being twenty members present, the House ad-
journed at half-past one o'clock.
