PROCEEDINGS IN PARLIAMENT.

THE BISHOP AND THE SOLDIER.—We mean
ihat no measure has been adopter: with regard to this
natter in either House of Parliament ; and yet the
House of Commons is to adjourn to-day until Mon-
day nest, and will then be very speedily prorogued:
New, we recollect thoasande of things brought before
the House, without one thousandth part the reason
for doing it that there was here. Questions have
been asked of the Ministers, about the most trifling
things in the world ; about a letter the other day
found upon a Quay at Habil° ! about all sorts of
things, in short; and yet, in this case, where there
had been a legal examination before a Justice of the
Peace ; where the examination must have been in
writing, and recorded ; where bail bad been entered
into in so extraordinary a case ; where the Bishop
was at large and the Soldier committed for trial ,
where all this was so notorious, there is not only no
motion for laying the examination or the bail bond
before either House; but there is so question asked of
the Ministers what they mean to do with regard to the
Bishopric ! And the " Quern's Friends" do riot
ask whether the people are too:infinite to pray for the
Bishop in that Liturgy in wnicb her Majesty's name
was out suffered to be inserted. These F.itarid of
" the Queen" have either.cery short memories or are
soot brought to be cool. We should have thought
that this was a fine occasion fur paying off old scores
a little. But, the " Queen's Freemen," appear to he
• a very y,,rgtring race—We noticed yosterday the fort
1, of titilli•OffiCilli paper in the New Times, which
I tells us that the law tinkers are to prosecute
I the Bishop and his partner the Soldier. Tery


well. We shall have a trial, then, of seam sal
or another? And, we will endeaeone to take an.
mai means for melting every creature in the king.
d.on as well acquainted with the 'thole matter se
if the " Queen's friends" had started the subject in
the House of Commous. It is lint for ns to say slt:
would Late been the cue. if we had eteddieti
with this nrotier. We leave that tie the public to
say ; but this we know very well, that, bad it act
Il been for us, this affair would n't have been read of es it
now wiil be throughout the United States of America
by the last day of next :booth. The TH/NG is walk.
ing amongst burning. plough-shares; and this is the
very hottest of the whole.
1w THE Loans there was last night nothing worthy
of particular attentioo.
Ix roe Coasseutta, an observation was made by C).
lODel TRENCH that there were 360,000 persons, in the
county of Mayo alone, who were receiving relief. Ifs
said the distress was much abated, and would be still
more abated by the crop of potatoes, which uould fall
in ii a few weeks ! Bur, bow does the Colonel knot
that the famine will not come again whet' that sheet-
ing rubbish is all eaven op. Sir WILLIAM DE CHM
nutty was not over friendly to the system of poor.
rates, but if nothing more effectual could be done, he
hoped the poor-rates would be introduced. The set.
the Baronet carrnat be over friendly to the poor-rates;
and we assure him that either peer-rates or Otter eon.
fusion must be introduced into Ireland. It is /I strange
thing to hear Colonel nausea .(who is an Irishman)
sighing for the crop of potatoes, when the Irish bew
papers are sow confessing that this washy inietnelst
earth and water is one of the great causes of the distress'
It is curious to hear Colonel TRENCH sighin,r for the
Potatoes when it is so notorious, that Ireland abounds
in corn and meat, which she is sending in prodigies;
quantities to enemy parts of the world, and partitulatly
to this country. and when we have recently rowel
to the satisfaction of every body, except. perhaps,
Irish landlords, that the " Potatoe Traps " of that
couotry are perfectly capable of receiving and grind-
iog the best of bread, beef, and baton. What would
you think of a man, who had bacon upon his rack and
bread in his pantry, sad who, with meagre looks sari
fainting voice were to tell yen that he trusted he
should be relieved by a parcel of roots growing is
his garden, the very water from the boiling of which
roots is sufficiently strong and " netritiees" to kill
r the lime!, that make what is called the cotton oligle
upon apple Trees ; or to core • dog of the mugs
when the animal is in the last stage of that imolai.
ing disease? What would you think of sorb a man?
Would you not say to kite. " why, blood-and-eons,
" Pat ; pull out your knife, and lay on upon the In-
" con and beef:" lo short, there is something at
once so ridiculous and so shocking in the present rate
of Ireland that one can hardly speak of it with acy
1 degree of sobriety.—The Poor-Rocca form the only
remedy ; bat, to hope that that reuiellywill be adopt-
' ed would not be to show that we have profited mush
from experience.
SOUTH AMIRICAN PIRATRII:-.•••Mr. MARRTATI
brought in a Petition from the shipowners and mer-
chants of the city of London ; and out of it arose a
long story about the acts of violence committed apoa
oar ships by the people of South America. Mr.
BRIGHT on the part of his constituents of Mime'.
praised the American Government for sending ship: it
war to put down the Duce eeeee s, as lee called then,
Lord CALTLIRRAGH gave • sitie-wisded stroke at Idol
Cocuaaws, and said, that he did not understand the
law of onions as this country understood them. lie
took occasion to say, that this nation was the grtotc.t
sew/ power, and we take the liberty to tell him that
hewnl not have to say that long, unless the National
Debt be diminished, and that cannot be without a Re-
form of tho Parliament.—The South Americans and
Lord COCHRAN/ laugh at shipowners and merchants
who hate the folly to rail for warlike measures, with
a peace establishment of sixty millions a year, or the
greater folly to expert that their greedy ideas about
trade are to be forced upon the world by any thiti
short of powder and ball.

STOCK EXCHANUE. TWELVE O'CLOCK

Considerable business has been dune this mornin;
in the market. Several respectable Brokers have par-

We bate noticed both to-day and yesterday the of.
f,,rts rcal.iog by the Ultra journals of Paris to pro-
duce • Italia to • counter-revolution at Madrid. By
a gentleman arrived this morning from the fanner
pi al, we learn the additional intelligence that it was
es:reedy reported there that Ferdinand had ded from
Spsis zuJ was then in France, and that Information to
ehs effect had bens seat allf by express to the English
Glummest. Cbo the arrival of sue informant here,
autriossly songht the papers of the day, expecting
t, see a detail of the important news. lie required no
other evidence of the groundless nature of the rumour
Lan the silence he found they obeerved upon the sub-
ject. Had an express reached London with intelli-
gence of that kind, it woeld not for a moment be sup-
pressed.

When the last cc. omits left Madrid so
ly were traequillity and social confidence re-established,
and so satisfactory was the state of the capital consi-
de►ed, that on the 17th the national militia, who had
been encamped is the squats of the Constitution from
the lit inst. to that date, broke up, and retired to
tsar homes, after having proceeded in great pomp
to the %else of the Municipality to receive the
Manes of the Authorities. The artillery likewise re-
reed to the Park, and only a sufficient cumber of men
remsised under arms to do the ditty of the garrison.
A Spanish paper mentions, that when the soldiers
of tie French Cordon &inhales beard of the success
of the patriots at Madrid, they espmeed great satin-
settion, and shouted " Vise la liberte d'Bspagne." -
A letter from Frankfort, dated the 21st last. says,
"We have just received the Important news that
the Cliaucellor the Prince o► ITardenberg, and the BD-
!liter of State, Count de Rerastoeff, will set out

where about Tilbury Fort, where several steam vessels
wall be stationed to receive the King's suite. Those
vessels will thence proceed to the Km, to join the
vessels now riding off that 'n, awaiting his Ma•
jetty's arrival. The scene presented by this Royal
aquatic excursion will be peculiar and novel, on as
count of the number of steam ls that will be
amongst the fleet—more of those vessels, it is calcite.,

THE

MILITARY FLOGGING.
CORONERS INQUEST.

TIEN PIRMATURK DEATH OF A BOLDUC'', AGED
TIINI4DY-TWO. BY FLOGGING.

[FROM " TUC TORa COURANT" OP TUZIDAT, JULY so.]
In our last we stated that a Coroners bequest bad
heen held by Mr. Cowling of this city, on the previous
Monday, Out 221 lost) at the York Barrack'', over
the body of Johs Purnel, a private in the Nor fleeces
regiment of Foot, who had been flogged at Hall, and
cue week afterwards removed to our Barracks,
where be lingered is great torture till Friday week.
when death closed his 'earthly sufferisge. The inqutest
was, however, adjourned till yesterday, and we than-
fore were not able to give any official information on
the 'abject is our leot ; but as it is our ditty, we now
lay the purport of the whole before the public. .
The inquest on Mouthy week commenced at about
half-past eleven in the forenoon, and the only witness
then examined was Mr. Andrew Browne, a Soweto
in the 21 Dragoon (lends, sow stationed in our Bar-
racks, and under whose medical care the deceased bad
been placed on his arrival. The purport of his evi-
deuce was as follows—that the man had received 300
lashes for an offence at Hull, the tare of which.
he was not fall) acquainted with; that about *
days afterwards, the reginseet being removed to Ire-
land, the deceased was conveyed to York on a bag-
gage cart; that the deceased informed the witness, thatH
a servant, whilst removing the portmanteau from the
baggage girt, on the march, let it fall upon his back; that
a mortification ensued bet that It ceased on the 11'h ;
that bad the man been able to bare taken sufficient
sepport, he might have recovered ; that he believed he
stink under debility, which debility might have owed
its origin to a three years residence in the West In-
dies. He, however, aeksowledged, that •when the
man was removed from Hall, the weather was extreme-
ly hoe, end that he must have been mui.b jolted on the
baggage cart.
Colonel Kearney, of the Dragoons, now stepped for-
ward and said, that In the absence of every one con-
nected with the 2d regiment of foot, be was anxious
to express his full conviction that the officers of that
regiment were generally men of very kind and humane
dispositions, and men who, be was quite tertain, would
set wilfully set a creel part.
Two witnesses belonging to the 2tl regiment of foot
being expected from Ireland, the Inquest was adjourn.
41111 filoaday the 29th day of Jitly, at two o'clock.
Before the Jury left the room, however, Mr.
Illeowne, the surgeon, re-entered, and announced that
Km be had just opened the body, and that he found thi
longs is a slate of putrefaction. Os that aeconnt be
wished the Jury to inspect the same, -and give their
opinion on the subject. Some of the Jury went ap
stairs, and one of them, on his return into the jury
room, stated, that the whole body was in a state of
putreartion, and therefore the leer were so only as
a enteral result. He, however, added, "thee the
men's bones were as bare of skin and flesh, as if hii
back bed been scraped with a kaifis." The Jeri
thee dispersed, god the remains of the deceased were
interred is Falford church-yard at two o'clock the
some oftereoett.
• --- SUOMI, D te.-4ATURDAT, JULY 27.
• Although the inquest bad been adjourned to Moe-
yet the wit. having arrived on Friday, and ex-
pressed great anxiety to return to Irelasti is soon as
possible, Mr. Cowling sansaioned the Joey to assemble
at three o'clock on Saturday afternoon, which they
accordingly did, and the examination proceeded. • •
Andrew Drove., the surgeon of the 211 dragoons, not
'titmice opened the body when last examined, was now
questioned relative thereto. His evidence, however,
on the subject amounted to nothing; for be ackeow-
!edged that though he found the lungs in a slate of
disease, that might have occurred subsequent to
the punishment.
Henry treeing, the Lien t and active Adjutant
of the Snood Regiment of Foot, deposed, that the
said regiment was in the garrison at Hall, le June;
and that so the 21st of that month, the deceased was
tried by a Court Martial, " for highly irregular and
sasoldier-like conduct, in having in his possession a
diver spoon or 'pitons, the property of the Officers'
Regimental Mess, between the Ist sod 14th of June,
and offering to dispose of the same, knowing it or
them to have been improperly come by." That the
man was found Conley, and sentenced to receive 200
lashes —That the sentence being confirmed by the
Cow Handing Officer, Lieut.-Col. Jordan, it was carried
into effect on the 22d of June. That no more lashes
were inflicted than the sentence authorised, end that
the deceased was then sent to the hospital, which is
about a mile from the garrison.—That on the 27th
of June the regiment marched from Hull to-York ;
that be rode ea the baggage cart, but that he walked
from York to the barracks.
Maurice Alexander, the Surgeon of the Second
Regiment of Foot, confirmed the above, and said that
only one sick man had been left behind, bet that if
he had thought the deceased unable to travel, he also
should have been let.. Witness examined the back of
the deceased at Beverley, after theft/we day's match,
and dressed it.—He Oita appeared to be cuing well.—
After the second day's march. he gm the deceased at
Market %Veighton.—He then complained of his back,
and, on examination, the witness found that
a mortification had commenced. and that the deceased
was labouring under a smart fever. The back of the
deceased was dressed, and proper medicines were ado
ministered. The next morning the mortification bad
encreased, but the lever had eubsided--- witness, hew-
ever, ,id not know of any proper medical gentleman,
(meaning, we suppose, an army surgeon,) under
whose care he could leave the deceased, and he there-
(,we was taken to York. The deceased complained of
having received a hurt on the baggaze cart—awl the
witness concluded by acknowledging that the weather
was extremely hot during the march.
Thus closed the evidence, and the Jury, after due
consideration, returned a verdict-TIIAT' Tel Dit•

PREPAR.MONS FOR THIT KING'S RSCEP•
TION AT ILDINDURGIL

[As a specimen of the exertions making to stimulate
sad display the loyalty .f Scotland, on occasion of the
Royal visit, we extract the followiog from the Rdie•
bergA Obe;reer of Saturday last.]
A race bets en time sod the most active mots] sad
bodily exeeffilos is freely contested in every quarter.
Alterations an improvements are going on throughout
part of he City. The work within sod without
the palace, and the new roads to it, are:proceeding with
increased strength and vigour, and as the intentlos of
his Majesty to land at the Trinity Chile Pier is now
pretty well ascertained, a new or improved road will
be ready for the route of his Majesty; nearly 300
howls are employed then. Mr. Nash, of the Lord
Chamber io's Office, arrived yesterday.
The eel arrangements are managed by a co-
ws) a litre, consisting of the Magistrates with the
official gtotheman and some of the principal iubabit
oats, which meets daily to receive reports or sows-
tioes, sod the lotion is carried on by s subdivision
of labour by meow of various sub-onitnittees. The
arrangements far the proceession sad reception are
AO as will suit any route that may be ultimately
::sided on. Tbas, if the Royal Progress takes the
▪ ;from Trinity by tJanososills, which is the
Ispetesat intention, a triumphal arch and gateway will
be erected, as the sommenceutrot of the bounds of the
✓oyaky, where the ceremonial of sdiniuloa to the
Icity, and the surrender of the keys, will tsko
place. The 'procession will then move up Hano-
ver-street, along Oeorge-street, and by Hope street
to Prince's-street, and reach the Palace by the
Regent's:bridge, and the new approach to Holy-
tiod.—lf the procession can get into Leith Walk,
the keys will be presented et Picardy Place, than
which no place, eau be better adapted for the
proper effect of such a splendid spectacle. None of
the Royal Dukes are expected t. visit Scotland on
this occasion ; and we believe the Royal visit will not
Astend beyond the neighbourhood of Edinburgh.
His Majesty will probably proceed is state to the Cas-
tle se the clarifier his arrival; the rote will be from
Helyrood, direct up the Canosgem. Upon both these

Is yet decided as to the appearnece to be made by the
College of Justice, and the other public bodies, but It
has bees suggested that the King skoald have an op-
portunity of seeing them In his progress from Holy-
rood to the Code. Upon this occasion, the Proftiliters,
Masters of the High School, Students and &When,
,may be down up is foot of tho new County Ned-
lap, where they would have an opportunity et Mist

His Majesty will probably return from the FAII4 di-
rest to the Palace. A review of the regular troops, and
of the vemositry corps, sad the visits to the Theatre,
sad other places, will he fixed upon according to cir-
cumstances. The banquet arrangements are getting into
.shape at the Parliament Hose.—
, The cooties of Edinburgh, Roxborgh, and Forfar.
;hove taken the lead in calling meetings to address; sod
:meetings of the Highland and ColticSeeieties have bees
opmenuned for the owe purpose. The address of tfM
'/1111ey Bdlnbureis is preporrog, and-thefsesky of•Ais
vacates meet on Monday, to consider of theirs. We is
to learn that the ladies have caught the loyal ets•
thosiss•n:—they intend to express their attachments
loyalty to the King, by deputing Scotland's Bard
present to his most Unclog Majesty, o St. Am ino%
Cross, encircled with Scottish gems. •
A carriage is preparing fur the Lord Proms. with
the arms of the city pained on the pannels ; aid a

(Fans, rue Ectiabergh Comm: or SATURDAY.)
The new approach by the Calton Hill is already In a
state of considerable forwardness. It enters the pre-
cincts of the Palace by a gateway, a little to, the west of
the marble work, at the Abberbill. The posts and
chains around the grass plat in front of the Palace,
which is now to he laid over with gravel, have been re-
moved. to give free access to carriages; and the walks
and old buildings to the south, which hurt the appear-
ance of the Palace, and narrowed the access to the Kiag's
Park, are taking down; gas pipes have been carried
into the agnate for the purpose ef lighting op the apart-
ments. 'I he private carriage way for his Majesty from
