The list is as follows:— General Rodil, War; Count Almodovar, Foreign Af- fairs ; MM. de los Heros, Justice: Senor Ferrer, in the room of Go- mez Becerra, Interior; M. Mendizabal, Finance. Senor Gonzales, the President of the Estate ot Procuradores, was applied to, but he either declined the invitation, or showed such indecision, that M. Mendizabal could not depend upon him. The letters from the frontiers of Spain, under date St. Pee, 30th ult., contain the bulletin of another very important victory obtained by the troops of Don Carlos over those of the Queen. The affair took place, on the 25th, in the valley of Mira, between eight Carlist battalions, under General Eguia, arid 12 Christino battalions, commanded by General Espeleta. The latter were driven from their positions, with the loss of 800 men, hors de combat, while the Carlists had only 120 killed and wounded. Accounts from Lisbon via Madrid and Paris have arrived up to the 20th. The new Cabinet was composed under the influence of the Prince. The Duke of Palmella had no office, but was charged with the negotiations of treaties, and other acts relative to foreign affairs, of which, nevertheless, Count Villareal was nominal Minister; the Duke of Terceira was War Minister; Gonsalez de Miranda, Marine; Silva Carvalho, Finance; Jose Freire, Home Department; Ant. de Aguiar, Justice. These nominations were to appear in the Gazette of the 21st. The new Prince has claimed the fulfilment of a promise made to him before he had set out on his way to Portugal, that he should be entrusted with the chief command of the army. The Portuguese Legislature had declared him incompetent to assume the command. This incident has created no small embarrassment among the new Members of the Government, whom the Queen urges to a compliance with her consort's wishes. LITERARY NEWS FROM THE METROPOLITAN.— The Memoirs of Prince Lucien Buonaparte, written by himself, which have excited • so much expectation, are about to be committed to the press. When the part which the Prince is known to have taken in the affairs of France during his brother's ascendancy is considered, it may be safely asserted, that a more important production has not issued from the press of late years. The circumstance of the Prince residing in London will be very advantageous to the correction of the work, which is to appear in French and in English, the latter translated under the inspection of, and corrected by, the Prince. Mr. Bulwer's new work on the Athenian History is in considerable forwardness. The skill with which this admirable writer transports himself into distant times, will, doubtless, render this a most attractive and delightful production. The author of The Old Man's Tales, who is, it seems, still determined to remain unknown, has nearly completed a second series of that admired work, entitled Tales of the Woods and Fields. Mr. Edward Landor has just committed to the press his new work, Advei. tnres in the North of Europe, with illustrations. Miss Tickney has nearly ready for publication a new work entitled The Iron Rule ; a Domestic Story. The Memorials ofMrs. Hemans, with Illustrations of her Literary Character, from her Correspondence, by Mr. Chorley, will, we understand, be particularly rich in communications from the large circle of her private friends. The work will also be embellished with some beautiful engravings from original sources. Mrs. Anderson's concert, at the Hanover- square Rooms on Friday next, will be honoured by the presence of their Royal Highnesses the Duchess of Kent and the Princess Victoria, under whose imme- diate patronage the performance takes place. Amongst the artists engaged, we see the names of Madame Malibran and Madame Caradori Allan, Sig. Ivanoff and M. De Beriot. Mr. Mori had his concert on Friday night, not in the concert- room of the King's theatre, but in the theatre itself, which was nearly as mnch crowded on the occasion as it has been on any opera night during the season. Madame Malibran made her first appearance this season on Mon- day, at Drury Lane Theatre, as Amina, in the opera of La Sonnambula. On her first entrance the pit rose en masse, and the waiving of handkerchiefs and lond vivas continued for a considerable time. The first act closed with a shout of applause, followed by general cries for Malibran, and her re- appearance called forth the most audible demonstrations of delight, which were repeated at the conclusion of the performance. The opera has since been repeated with similar effect. Mr. Macready is announced to make his appearance at Covent Garden on Wednesday. On Thursday, after the entertaining piec e of O'Flannigan and the Fairies, and the last new farce of the As- surance Company, was presented the Irish Ambassador, in which, as usual Power was predominant— Sir Plenipo lording it above all others of the dramatis persons. A Miss Beverly performed the part hitherto sustained by Miss Taylor, and was loudly applauded. At the Haymarket Theatre, the new farce of My Husband's Ghost, and the grand ballet called Zulema— the latter of which, by the new arrangement at this house, may be seen at second price— continue to attract crowded and fashionable audiences. A new farce was an- nounced for performance last night, called Railroads for Ever, or or How to get Rich ; and on Monday Mr. Vandenhoff appears as Jbchardthe Third. A piece called The Witch's Son has been produced at the English Opera with perfect success. It is from the pen of Mr. Serle, who, with Mrs. Keely, contributed mainly to the success of the per- I lonnance. 1 PARLIAMENTARY ANALYSIS. HOUSE OF LORDS. MONDAY After the presentation of some petitions, the Bill for indemnifying the witnesses in the case of the borough of Stafford was read a second time, the Duke of WELLINGTON, Lord LYNDHURST, and Lord ASH- BURTON objecting to certain clauses of it. Lord DUNCANXON having moved the Order of the Day for the going into Committee on his Constabulary Bill, the Earl of RODEN, at some length, expressed his belief that the Bill was highly dangerous in its tendency.— The Earl of WICKLOW opposed the Bill. The Duke of WELLINGTON, the Earl of HAODINGTON, and other Noble Lords, deprecated the extraordinary powers about to be con- ferred absolutely on the Lord Lieutenant. The Noble Duke insisted that such a power ought not to be granted; and if their Lordships as- sented to go into Committee on the Bill, he should endeavour to annul it by withholding such powers as these.— The House then went into Committee, and after a good deal of desultory discussion, several amendments were proposed and agreed to. Among the rest was one requiring the recommendation or sanction of three Magistrates of the district in the appointment of constables.— The various clauses having been agreed to, the House resumed, and the report was ordered to be brought up on Friday. TUESDAY. In answer to a question from the Marquess of LONDONDERRY, as to the probnbility of recovering the money advanced by the Ex- chequer Bill Loan Commissioners for the Clarence Railway, the Marquess of LANSDOWNE said the Commissioners had acted under an Act of Parliament, and had no doubt been careful that proper security should be taken. Some petitions were then presented by various Noble Lords, and the House went into Committee on the Stafford Witnesses Indemnity Bill. A few verbal amendments were adopted, on the suggestion of Lord ASHBURTON, and the report was ordered to be brought up on Thursday next, to which day their Lordships then adjourned. THURSDAY. Several petitions were presented. Among them were some in favour of a better observance of the Sabbath, by the Earl of DEVON, the Earl of BURLINGTON, and other Noble Lords. The Bills before the House were severally advanced a stage, and their Lordships adjourned. FRIDAY. The second reading of the Scottish Entails Bill was, on behalf of the Earl of ROSEBERY, postponed till Tuesday next. Some discussion took place on the bringing up of the report on the Irish Constabulary Bill. A division occurred on an amendment proposed by the Duke of LEINSTER, exempting freemasons from the provisions of the Bill, and the original clause was carried by 44 to 41 — The report was then received. The Earl of RIPON proceeded, in a speech of some length, and considerable detail, especially with reference to certain acts of the Commissioners, to move for a return of the funds at the disposal of the Ecclesiastical Commissioners in Ireland. The Noble Earl was anxious to have this information laid before the House, with a view to assist its deliberations when the question of Irish tithes should come under notice. After a few words from Lord MELBOURNE, the motion was agreed to.— Adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS. MONDAY. Petitions were presented against the Bill for a new appropriation of the revenues of the See of Durham. Lord STANLEY asked if it was the intention of Government to introduce any measure on the subject of Church rates this Session ?— Lord J. RITSSELL answered in the affirmative, provided the House should agree with him in the necessity of passing the Registration and Marriage Bills. The House then went into Committee on the Bill for the Com- mutation of Tithes in England. The clauses up to 32 inclusive, were agreed to without a division ; and clause 33, after considerable con- versation, was postponed. The House then resumed, and the Chairman reported progress. The Dublin Police Bill passed through Committee.— Mr. A. TREVOR having inquired whether Ministers intended to bring in any Bill on the subject of the University of Durham, Lord J. RUSSELL stated that such an intention did exist, but that he could not yet say when the measure wonld be introduced.— The other Orders of the Day were then dispatched, and the House adjourned. TUESDAY. Mr. GRANTLEY BERKELEY then moved, pursuant to notice, that the resolution of the Committee appointed last Session, recom- mending the appropriation of a gallery to the use of the ladies, should be adopted by the House.— Mr. POTTER seconded the motion, and after a short discussion, which created much merriment, the House divided on it— for the motion 132, against it 90; it was understood, however, that during the exclusion of strangers the motion was altered so as to apply to the future House of Parliament. Sir W. MOLESWORTH ( having prevailed on the Hon. Members who preceded him on the list of notices to waive their right) then brought forward his motion for a Select Committee to inquire into the con- duct of the Commander- in- Chief of the Forces in appointing Lieut.- Colonel Lord Brudenell to the Lieutenant- Colonelcy of the 11th Light Dragoons. He submitted the motion on the principle that there ought to be some person who was amenable to the Commons' House for the measure in which he fulfilled the duty of Commander- in- Chief. At present it appeared to be irresponsible power exercised avowedly independently of the Ministers.— Lord BRUDENELL, in a speech which evidently made a deep impression on the House, justified his character from the imputations that had been endea- voured to be cast upon it.— Lord Howies opposed the motion.— Sir H. HARDINGE insisted that the proposed interference of the House of Commons would be in conformity with the practice during the worst times of Parliamentary usurpation. The Right Hon. Baronet expressed his high satisfaction at the restoration of the Noble Lord to active service; as did Mr. E. ELLICE, who_ entered into a detail of the circumstances that had come under his know- ledge as connected with the case.— Mr. O'CONNELL spoke in high terms of Lord Brudenell, and recommended Sir W. Molesworth to withdraw his motion— a recommendation with which that Hon. Gentleman immediately expressed his wish to comply. The House, however, from a natural feeling that justice to all parties required the decision of a deliberate vote, insisted on a division; and the numbers appeared— For the motion, 42; against it, 322. WEDNESDAY. After the presentation of several petitions on various subjects, Mr POULET SCROPE moved a series of resolutions to the eftect that a poor law was expedient for Ireland.— Mr. SMITH O'BRIEN seconded the motion. In the course of his observations the Hon. Member made some strong allusions to the new- born zeal of Mr. O'Connell in favour of Irish poor laws, and contrasted it with the absence of the Hon. and Learned Gentleman on the present occasion.— Mr. S. CRAWFORD took a similar view of the practical indifference of the Hon. Member for Dublin to the distresses of his countrymen.— Lord J. RUSSELL stated that Government was friendly to the discussion o* this measure, and might possibly introduce some Bill on the subject during the present Session; but he was not in a situation to give any pledge to that effect.— After a few words from other Hon. Members, Mr. P. SCROPE withdrew his resolutions, in the hope that Ministers might be able to originate something of a similar tendency. The same Hon. Member then moved the second reading of the Poor Rate Bill. Some desultory conversation ensued, which termi- nated in the moving of an amendment by Mr. WAKLEY, that the Bill be read a second time that day six months. On a division the numbers were— For the motion, 41; for the amendment, 13. The Bill was then read a second time. On the second reading of the " Public Walks" Bill, an amendment was proposed that it be read a second time this day six months. On that motion the House was " counted out." there being only 38 Members present. THURSDAY. Mr. ROBINION, in presenting petitions from under- writers of London, ( tec., against the duty on marine insurances, entered into some interesting statements respecting the prejudicial operation of that duty, showing that, while the exports advanced from 88 to 120 millions sterling, the produce of the marine insurance duty had shrunk from 309,0001. to 200,0001., owing to insurances being effected abroad, or altogether neglected, rather than pay the duty. He gave notice that if the Chancellor of the Exchequer did not pro- pose a reduction, he would, when the Stamps Bill was before the House.— During the presentation of other petitions an Hon. Mem- ber moved that the House be counted out, and, only 27 Members being present, an adjournment was the consequence. " FRIDAY. In reply to a question from Lord ASHLEY, Lord J. RUSSELL said that though it had been his intention to proceed with the English Tithe Bill on Monday next, he had no objection to yield precedence to the Factories Act Amendment Bill. Some conversation took place about the future progress of the Irish Tithe Bill; Lord J. RUSSELL proposing the second reading pro forma on the 16th, and Sir R. PEEL suggesting a more distant period. The discussion on the Bill was understood to be postponed until after the Whitsuntide recess. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER then, in a Committee of Ways and Means, brought forward his financial statement for the year. Mr. RICE estimates the income of the enrrrent year at 46,980,0001., and the expenditure at 45,205,8071.,— so that the surplus would appear to be 1,774,1931. This estimate, however, does not include the charge for the West Indian Loan. The most he can be called upon for m the current year, onaccountof this charge, he estimates at 1,111,8631. He deducts the last mentioned sum from the 1,774,1931., and the result of that operation is the sum of 662,3301., which is the actual surplus. Mr. RICE proposes to dispose of part of this surplus of 662,3301. in the following manner:— He intends to take off entirely the duty on stained paper, and to reduce the duty on first class paper by one- half,— that is to say, from 3d. to lid. per pound. This he calculates will cause a deficiency of revenue for the present year of only 125,0001., as he does not intend to make the reduction take place till October. He thinks he shall lose during the year by the Eost- office convention with France 20,0001. By his arrangements in is Stamp Bill respecting the probate duty, he calculates upon a loss of another 20,0001. He remits the South Sea duties, for which an equivalent must be provided, and that, he says, will cost 10,0001. By his reduction of the newspaper duties he calculates he shall lose 200,0001. a- year for the present, but in this year only 150,0001., as he proposes that the reduction shall not take place till Jnly, so that the loss will be only on three quarters of the year. He means to reduce the duty on advertisements in Ireland, and estimates the loss there- from at 6,0001. He extends the reduction of duty on fire insurance on farming stock to farming buildings,_ by which he will lose 15,0001. Finally, by various reductions, respecting which he entered into no explanation, but which he said had reference to small taxes, tax- carts, flies, ( fee., he calculates that he shall lose 5,0001. These make together the sum of 351,0001. Thus, then, stands the loss from re- ductions, & c., in the present year:— paper duties, 125,0001. ; post- office treaty, 20,0001.; probates, 20,0001.; South Sea duties, 10,0001.; newspaper stamps, 150,0001.; insurances on farming buildings, 15,0001.; advertisements ( Ireland), 6,0001.; tax- carts, flies, ( fee., 5,0001.; total, 351,0001. The surplus, therefore, amounts to the difference between 662,3301. and 351,0001.— that is to say, 311,3301. Mr. RICE stated,, moreover, that it was his intention to repeal the additional duty of 50 percent, on spirit licenses; but that he should " take an equivalent on the consumption of spirits."— The statement gave rise to much desultory discussion, but no specific opposition was offered. As the house was about to adjourn, Mr. TALBOT moved for a new writ for Kilkenny, in the room of Mr. Sullivan, who had accepted the Chiltern Hundreds. It was understood that this was preparatory to Mr. O'CONNELL being voted out of Dublin by the Committee now sitting. We are indebted to the Kentish Observer for the following answer of Convocation at Oxford, to the letter of the Archdeacon and Clergy of the diocese of Canterbury:— TO THE VENERABLE THE ARCHDEACON AND THE CLERGY OF THE DIOCESE OF CANTERBURY. Gentlemen,— Your gratifying and encouraging testimonial was laid before the members of Convocation assembled in Corpus Com- mon Room, on the first occasion of their meeting after the Easter Vacation, it having been some time before communicated to the Committee. In the name and on the behalf of all, I have to express our grateful sense of so distinguished a mark of approbation. Most truly does that important document speak of the magnitude of the interests involved in the points at issue. Those interests are no other than the INTERESTS OF REVEALED TRUTH, and of our truly Scriptural and Apostolic Church, which, under Divine Providence, is, in these realms, the appointed Witness, Keeper, and Defender of that Truth. Most of the fundamental verities, upon which it has pleased God to make man's salvation to depend, have been, in many ways, assailed by Dr. Hampden, in his Bampton Lectures, his Causes of Dissent, and its Postscript— but in no way, have they been so systematically impugned, as by the representation, that, as those verities have been drawn out, and stated in our Articles, they are the mere figments of scholasticism— although it is well known that some of the most momentous of them ( I mean those holy, primitive, and universal truths which heresies had made it necessary for the first Four General Councils to assert and vindicate) had their existence, as Canons of the Church, above 700 years before scholasticism, as such, was known to the Christian world ; whilst, in addition to that histo- rical fact, it is equally well known that our Church has asserted and maintained them, because " they may be proved by most certain warrants of holy Scripture." Connecting Dr. Hampden's opinions with his recent appointment, I have been led to the conclusion, that some syncretistic measure is in contemplation for the abolition of all tests of a true faith— of all articulations, positive of what is true, or negative of what is false— in short, of all those criteria of sound and unsound in doctrine, by which, as by fences, the Lord's vineyard, and the labour of his workmen, are protected from those who would interrupt and ill- treat the latter, and bring desolation upon the sacred inclosure itself. Such are some of the sacred interests which appear to be involved in the question now before the University of Oxford; but under what- ever aspect these dangers may have presented themselves to the Ve- nerable the Archdeacon, and Clergy of the Diocese of Canterbury, the result of the impression has been manifested in that communica- tion which is entitled to our thanks and gratitude.— I have the honour to be, Mr. Archdeacon and Gentlemen, Your faithful and obedient servant, Oxford, April 30, 1836. VAUGHAN THOMAS. The Warder of Saturday, says:— A correspondent has communicated to ns the following. We do not vouch its correctness, and wonld feel pleased that it could be truly contradicted:— " Government, it is said, has been applied to by certain of the Roman Catholic Priests of the county of Carlow, in favour of the wretched woman now under sentence of transportation in Carlow aol, for perjury, in her information against SLY for the alleged mur- er of Father WALSH. If this be the fact, it would give birth to strange inferences. It is evident, from the kind of testimony given on SLY'S trial, that therewere persons behind the curtain, prompting these witnesses, and who had endeavoured to make them perfect in their parts by many previous rehearsals. The truth is coming out— i diabolical a conspiracy never disgraced any country. " I presume you have heard of the Lord Lieutenant s commuting the sentences passed at the last assizes of Carlow on two of the greatest vagabonds that ever disgraced a country. They were ordered for transportation for life, but on the application of the Priests it has been changed to imprisonment for one year, without consulting the Judge— indeed there is now no use in Judge or Jury— Government act as both, and under party influence. The Serjeant of Police, who proved against the policeman ( who gave false testi- mony against SLY) ' thathe was in his quarters at 11' o'clock at night,' has been discharged." We really did not hear of this before, and we sincerely hope that our correspondent has been misinformed. The following is an extract from the Montreal Herald Abstract of the 31st of March, which is, we believe, the latest arrival from Canada:— We hear that the Earl of GOSFORD has determined to go home in. the spring. He is said to have arrived at the conclusion that his once " flattering and kind" friends are equally dishonest and disho- nourable. It is more than probable that Sir FRANCIS HEAD, if factiousfy an- noyed by the revolutionary majority of the Assembly of Upper Canada, will dissolve that illustrious body, and give the people an op- portunity of selecting abler, wiser, and safer representatives, lhe one, style, and substance of Sir FRANCIS'S messages and replies, must have made a strong impression in his favour on the mind ot every impartial and intelligent man. Sir FRANCIS, certainly, is no conceder; " and if we ever said a syllable against hiin, we beg to offer him a most ample apology. In the Court of King's Bench on Friday, application was made for a criminal information against the Dorset County Chronicle, for & libel on Messrs. Chapman and Brown, two of the recently appointed Magistrates of Bridgewater. The libel complained of, alleged that those Magistrates had promised their votes to one gentleman, who was a candidate for the office of town clerk, and had voted for ano- ther, The rule was refused.

When it is considered that Southampton must become the great Port of em- barkation for all parties from the North, West, and South of England, for Guern- sey and Jersey, France, and the whole Continent, and that in addition to its present extensive trade, it will ere long become " the Liverpool of the South," supplying from its Port the extent of country at present supplied from the Ports of London and Bristol, it cannot be surprising that this Railway should have been hailed, on its first announcement, as one of immense importance, not only to Southampton, but, by connecting itself with the contemplated Railway from Portsmouth to that place, establishing a Line of Railway which will bring together the Mining, Agricultural, and Manufacturing Districts of Cornwall, Devon, Somerset,' and Wilts—- the Ports of Plymouth and Falmouth, Brighton, Arundel, Chichester, Fareham, Gosport, Portsea, Portsmouth, and the Eastern District of the King- dom. The present traffic between Salisbury, Romsey, and Southampton would of itself justify the expectation of an ample return for the capital to be em- barked in the construction of this Railway ; the distance is only 22 miles ; the - country is level and requires no tunnelling or deep cutting; a great portion of the land on the line ( now valueless) was levelled for the intended Southampton and Salisbury Canal, and is well adapted for the Railway; bntthe great profit beyond an ample interest on the capital must arise from the Junction which, by means of this Railway, will be made with the important Districts referred to, and on viewing Southampton as the great Port of embarkation for, and as the receiving Port for the produce of, France and the Channel Islands. The Railway which is about to be constructed from Paris, by Rouen, to Havre, with the extensive Steam Packet Establishments at Southampton, will at once connect the Capital of France with that Port. The portion of mud land which will be recovered by means of this Railway, between Millbrook and Southampton, will be converted into a promenade and walks, thus increasing the attractions of Southampton as a watering- place, and converting a nuisance into one of the most attractive features of the town, and rendering it a source of profit to the Company.

REAL CHELTENHAM SALTS, made from the Waters of the Montpelier Spa, the property of the late Henry Thompson, Esq. Reduction in price ; no Sramp Duty. These are the only Cheltenham Salts which any Family or person should use ; they are highly recommended by the Faculty, aud the thousands who resort to Cheltenham yearly, to drink the celebrated Montpelier Waters from which these Salts are extracted, attest their high medi- cal character, and beneficial properties to health. The experience of many years has established the reputation of these Salts as a cleanser of the Stomach, and strengthener of the Digestive Organs, and as efficacious in removing all com- plaints of the Liver, Kidneys, & c., and as a gentle aperient, without causing that dangerous re- action of the Bowels produced by common salts, and other drastic purgatives. All other Salts, sold under the denomination of Cheltenham Salts, are mere chemical preparations, and made in different parts of the kingdom; ask, therefore, always for the late Henry Thompson's Real Cheltenham Salts.

SELWAY'S PREPARED ESSENCE of SENNA.— The obvious and acknowledged utility of the Infusion Senna as a domestic Purgative renders any further recommendation unnecessary: at'the same time it must be eonfe- sed, that considerable inconvenience attends the form in which it is Hsually prepared, and if not immediately used, is liable to undergo a chemical change, by which it not only loses its purgative quality, but acquires that of an opposite tendency, and is in consequence found to excite violent griping of the bowels.— In this preparation, the Senna is so combined, that the usual inconveni- ence is at once obviated, for it will be found to undergo no change whatever by keeping, and require no other preparation for immediate use than simple dilution wit. fi cold or warm water, or if preferred tea or coffee may be substituted. The increased use of Senna since the first introduction of the above induces the jresent Proprietor to make it more generally known.— Prepared only by Simkin, ate Selway, Chemist to his Majesty, 2, New Cavendish- street, Portland- place.

RUPTURES.— The PATENT SELF- ADJUSTING GER- MAN TRUSS, acting effectually without pressure or any complication, is recommended by the Faculty for the Cure and Relief of Hernia.

April 17. 1U cuiuiv. hPOti ItrUMa. Mr. HARDINGE, of Norwood, uho last week made inquiries, through this Paper, concerning a Charity, called " Dickson's Gift to Appren- tices," is informed that ire h-- ve received a communication from Mr. SCOTT, of the Chamberlain's Office, stating that the Charity referred to is in the management of the Drapers' Company, and consists of payments of it. each, the gift of Mr. HENRY DIXON. The letter upon the reduction ill the she of ladies' sleeves has been received, IVe admit that at first the sudden disappearance of the huge appendages to modern dress startles one, and gives an appearance of coldness, and almost nakedness, to the fair patients. This, however, only shows how the eye becomes accustomed to disproportions, because, for the last few years, the breadth of a lady has generally exceeded her length. A much- esteemed correspondent suggests that the portion of the Home of Commons to be appropriated for the ladies, should be called the " Girl- ery," in contradistinction to the " Gallery" for men. A correspondent remarks, as a singular circumstance, that the Order of St. Michael and St. George has neither been conferred on the Gallant General who commanded at the capture of the Island whence the Order springs, nor upon any Officer serving there at thetimeof its surrender to his Majesty's arms. If what G. D. tells us is true, we are sorry for it. IVe never meddle in such matters— it is not the province of a public writer to bring forward persons who do not put themselves forward unnecessarily. Ill the other case, more might be said— but why ? Our friend Z. may rest assured that we may " be trusted." IVe deeply regret that we did not receive the able letter from Oxford, on Dr. HA MPDEN and the Statute, until so late an hour last evening as to render it impossible to insert it— it shall appear ill our next number. The same answer applies to A. M., who shall also have a place next week. IVe regret also to be obliged to postpone the able explanation of the merits of Mr. CUNDY'S Brighton Railroad, which completely justifies our opinion of it, and corroborates all our statements respecting it. IVe have no doubt that the most cursory glance over the plan which is attached to the prospectus, will convince the most prejudicial mind of its unquestionable superiority over its circuitous rival. The shares are ill great demand, and no doubt can be entertained of its triumphant 1011 BULSi. LONDON, MAY 8. THEIR MAJESTIES came to town on Wednesday, on which day, the KING held a Levee. On Thursday, her MAJESTY held a Drawing- room, at St. James's, which was numerously and brilliantly attended. Towards the close of the Court, his Serene Highness the Prince of ORANGE, and his two Sons, arrived at the Palace, and were most cordially received by their MAJESTIES. Their MAJESTIES left town for Windsor on Friday. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of KENT is better. IN the whole mass of Parliamentary records there is not to be found a more triumphant vindication of a high- minded, important, gallant and excellent public Officer, than that which was exhibited to the nation on Tuesday, in the development and result of which, Sir HENRY IIARDINGE so justly called a 41 fishing question," involving the character and military admi- nistration of Lord HILL, brought forward nominally as an inquiry into the appointment of Lord BRUDENELL to the command of a regiment, after having been for some time sus- pended from active duty, because, as it appears, a Court- Martial assembled to try an Officer of his Lordship's regiment, in which Court- Martial his Lordship was the prosecutor, seemed to imagine they were tiying two Officers instead of one, and volunteered some observations which certainly, whatever their feelings or motives might have been, were wholly un- called for, as forming any part of their duty. It is clear, however, that the whole object of every one of the Radicals, from the Editor of the London Review ( we be- lieve the book is called), who brought forward the motion, down to Mr. HUME, that the Commander of the Forces was the great object to be hit, and accordingly we find both Mr. O'CONNELL and Mr. HUME declaring it to be their opinion that Lord BRUDENELL had been most shamefully used, and we also find both these Honourable Gentlemen voting virtu- ally against Lord BRUDENELL in the division, of which HUME himself was one of the tellers— there were forty- two of them altogether. The debate involved not only the characters of Lord Bnu- DENELL and of Lord HILL, but the very essence of the Royal prerogative— it was one of the leading vital principles of the Constitution which was under discussion, and the result was most gratifying— the numbers on the division were THREE HUNDRED AND TWENTY- TWO to FORTY- TWO, a list of which glorious minority we will give in the sequel— a mino- rity to be recorded for ever in the minds of the People, and recorded in the teeth of the most distinguished Radicals, who dreaded the exposure of the weakness of the ultra- Destruc- tives, and after poor Sir SOMETHING MOLF. SWORTH had, witli tile most beautiful amiability and becoming modesty, at the suggestion of his " honourable and learned friend" Mr. DANIEL O'CONNELL, begged not to put the House to the trouble of dividing /— Considerate creature ! We must, however, not permit ourselves to lose sight of the ostensible character and purpose of the motion, nor permit ourselves to be led away by the triumph of the great princi- ple involved in its real intention and object, to pass over that, which cannot fail to be considered, as it most assuredly is, the complete triumph of Lord BRUDENELL, whose name has been coupled with the attempt upon the Royal prerogative. Lord BRUDENELL'S statement of his case was delivered in the most manly, moderate, and modest manner, in a tone of firmness and calmness, which secured to his Lordship the un- disturbed attention of the House, and was supported by docu- ments, which we feel it our duty to submit to our readers. Lord BRUDENELL, arrayed in the attributes of nobility in his native country, in the enjoyment of rank and competence and happiness, seeks, for the sake of vindicating his honour and re- establishing himself in a service, to which, as it appears from competent authorities, lie was early, long, aud sincerely devoted, to quit all the comforts of home, all the advan- tages of rank and pre- eminence, to undertake a lengthened voyage in order to join his regiment in India, in a climate ill- suited to his habits and constitution. This of itself is a sufficient proof of his zeal aud sincerity. Now let us look to the testimonials which his Lordship read to ( he House, and which were received with loud cheers, as indeed was the whole of his statement, and which were redoubled at its conclusion, when his Lordship, agreeable to custom in similar cases of personal attack, quitted the House:— " Head Quarters, Northern District, " Ledstone Hall, Pontefract, April 15, 1834. " My Lord,— Your Lordship's letter of the 11th reached me here yesterday. I can have no hesitation in declaring that with the exception of one occurrence, I had every reason to be satisfied with the conduct of the 15th Hussars, under your Lordship's command, during the period which they passed in this district, and the occur- rence, which it is needless to say more about, was not, in my opinion, to be attributed in the slightest degree to your Lordship. " With respect to the discipline of the regiment in quarters, and to its efficiency and appearance in the field, the riding, and the preci- sion and quiet with which the movements were executed when I reviewed the regiment, 1 cannot speak too highly, and if my testi- mony on these points, as well as to your zeal and unwearied attention to all parts of vour duty as commanding officer, is acceptable to your Lordship, I beg that you will do me the favour to accept it. I have the honour to be, your Lordship's most obedient humble servant, " H. Bouvr. IE, Major- General. " Lieu tenant- Colonel Lord Brudenell, & c." The next letter he should read was from the present Master- General of the Ordnance, who was Commander- in- Chief in Ireland at the time lie ( Lord Brudenell) was stationed there, and it was addressed to Sir H. Hardinge. It was as follows:— " 0. O. g Nov. 4, 183'. " My dear Hardinge,— I know not how I can assist Lord Brude- nell further than 1 have done, and that was by stating to Lord Mel- bourne, that as the circumstances that occasioned his removal from the loth took place whilst he was serving under my command, I was quite prepared to sav, and would say, were I in the House of Com- mons, that I should ' be very glad to see him replaced in a regiment of cavalry. I told Lord Melbourne, as I at the time repeated to the Horse Guards, that I never saw a regiment in firier order than the 15th, or an officer more zealous in the discharge of his duty than Lord Brndenell; that he had faults, 110 doubt; for those he has suffered very severely, and is still suffering, and it would give me great pleasure to assist in restoring him to the service, and seeing no reason whatever why he should not return to the service, on the contrary, being of opinion that his case was, upon the whole a hard one. I'can have no objection to this, my opinion, being made known. Of all men, pefhaps, I have the greatest right to give an opinion, from the circumstance, as I began by stating, of my having com- manded in Ireland when the general court- martial took place. " Ever very faithfully yours, " H. VIVIAN." He should now read to the House an ex'tract from a letter of Lieu- tenant- General Lord Stafford, formerly Sir John Byng :— " London, Nov. 8, 1835. " I cannot hesitate to commit to writing what I said to you, that if Lord Hill ( who must be the most competent judge,) should think fit to reappoint you to a regiment, I should be ready to defend such reap- pointment either in Parliament or in private society." The next letter with which he would trouble the House was from Major- General Sir Frederick Ponsonby, in the following terms :— " March 20,183G. " My dear Lord,— I have given every consideration in my power to your case, and I must say that, in my humble opinion, you have been treated with great severity ; and, if you are not permitted to effect the exchange into the 11th Dragoons, you will be treated with positive injustice. " I gave you this opinion in December last, and I am strengthened in the belief that it is correct, from having conversed with many offi- cers of all classes in the army, and I have found scarcely any one who has differed in opinion with me.— Believe me, very sincerely yours, " F. PONSONBY, Major- General." The last letter which he would read was from Major- General Sir Edward Blakeney, commanding the forces in Ireland, under whom he had also served:— " Dublin, 28 th of April, 1836. " My dear Lord,— I have had great pleasure in seeing that the General Commanding in Chief has recommended you to his Majesty for restoration to full pay, and your consequent appointment to a Lieutenant- Colonelcy in the lltli Light Dragoons. " In field movements, and the ready application of cavalry, I con- sidered you one of the most intelligent officers that served under my orders, and I confidently anticipate, from your experience of the past, and the judicious application of your zeal for the service in fu- ture, you will prove to tile army at large that you are deserving of the act of justice Lord Hill has performed in recommending your restoration to full pay. " With wishing you, my dear Lord, every success, believe me al- ways very faithfully yours, " EDWARD BLAKENEY." Upon the unfortunate Radical editor or proprietor of the London Review, Sir WILLIAM MOLESWORTH, Lord HOWICK was bitterly severe; and so with all his might and power was Lord JOHN RUSSELL. The time has arrived when the Ministers begin to feel the irksoineness of a Radical tail; they are now seeking for better things, and are proving that, which rio man of common observation ever could doubt, that an English Ministry must always be, that which is absurdly called Tory. Men out of office inveigh against everything done by men in office; the GREYS and the RUSSELLS, and all the party who, for nearly fifty years with a few weeks' exception, had been in Opposition, spouted against pensions, and military flogging, and taxation, and fifty other matters, which they denounced as abominations, but which, the moment they become Ministers they necessarily uphold and support ; and it is very remarkable, that all the main points upon which they did talk in Opposition, were, in point of fact, conceded by Conservative Governments, much to our misfortune. If the AVhigs had been in office at the time that the question of Catholic Emancipation was last under discussion, it never would have been granted— they speechified about it, when there was no responsibility at- tached to the expression of their opinions ; but not one of them would have ventured to carry it, or attempt to carry it. Look at the reduction of taxation by the Tory Government— look at the repeal of the Test and Corporation Acts— look at all these things. We, for our own parts, would rather not— but they were all carried by a Tory Ministry; and now we find — and we rejoice to find— that a stand is made by the Whig Ministers against their Radical supporters, with whom they now fancy they have done, and we see Lord JOHN RUSSELL and the rest of the Government gladly clinging to the Conser- vatives to support the Royal prerogative and the rights of the Crown from the innovations of the HUMES, and SAVAGES, and MACCONNELLS, and all the rest of the " Unwashed," who hoisted them into power, under the stupid delusion that they would go all lengths to please a class of the people whom, above, or rather below all others, they most particularly despise. Let us, however, do justice to the glorious minority upon the present occasion— a minority which we know was, even in the early part of the evening, expected to be a vast majority of the House. The unfortunate gentleman who brought forward the motion felt almost secure of what is called betteriug the Ministry by the results of his division— and yet, when it came to the push, lo, and behold— here they were:— Anglionbv, H. A. Grote, G. Roebuck, J. A. Attwood," T. Hector, C. J. Ruthven, E. Barnard, E. G. Jervis, J. Scholefield, J. Bish, T. King, E. B. Strutt, E. Bowring, Dr. Leader, J. T. Thompson, Col. Brady, D. C. Marshall, W. Thornely, T. Bridgeman, H. Marsland, H. Villiers, C. P. Brocklehurst, J. O'Brien, W. S. Wakley, T. Brotherton, J. O'Connell, D. Wallace, Ri Buller, C. O'Counell, J. Warburton, H. Crawford, W. S. O'Connell, M. J. Wilbraham, G. Divett, E. O'Connell, M. Williams, W. Dundas, Hon. J. C. Philips, M. TELLERS. Ewart, William Pryme, G. Molesworth, Sir W. Gillon, W. D. Roche, D. Hume, J. We have but one word of our own to add to this list— we merely beg leave to extract two paragraphs from the speeches delivered by Mr. O'CONNELL and Mr. HUME, in the debate, as reported in the newspapers— leaving to the reader the agreeable task of perusing, as we have already said, the names of both those gentlemen in the minority, one of those prominently appearing as teller. Mr. O ' CONN ELL hoped the Hon. Baronet would not press his motion to a division. ( Loud cries of " Divide.") There was this distinct objection to it, that while they demanded inquiry against one indi- dual, they would be under the necessity of implying censure against another. ( Hear. J That had been stronglv put by the Noble Lord, the Secretary at War. If Lord Brudenell deserved censnre, they should attack him directly, and not come at him by any side- wind; and if this were a direct attack, he ( Mr. O'Connell) was sure it would totally foil; for he had a conviction that Lord Brudenell was an injured man. He had been convicted without having been tried, and punished without having any charge pre/ erred against him. — MR. O'CONNELL VOTED AGAINST LORD BRUDENELL. Mr. HUME was anxious to tell the House how much he differed from the Secretary at War on this question, and to prove that the Noble Lord had actually laid grounds for an inquiry. The Noble Lord, whom some considered as the object of this motion, but whom he did not regard as the object of it, had, in his opinion, shown that he had ^ rood reason to complain that he hud been harshly treated, and that inquiry was actually necessary to do him justice. The Noble Lord near him ( Lord G. Lennox, affirmed that the court- martial had acted wrong, and given a verdict against the evidence adduced ; and thus, by impugning the character of the most Honourable Court they possessed for the regulation of the army, had also laid grounds for an inquiry. He ( Mr. Hume) thought the Noble Lord ( Lord Brudenell) had made out a case of great grievance, and was entitled to complain of the conduct of the Commander- in- Chief. He had no hesitation in saying that the chief complaint he ( Mr. Hume) made was against Lord Hill, who had sanctioned the verdict of the court, and proclaimed his approval of it, and now declared, without any explanation satisfactory either to the army or the public, that the sentence was rigorous and unjust to the Noble Lord. Mr. HUME voted against. Lord BRUDENE LL, and was a teller ; and the very same day that his fine speech upon this occasion, and his opinions upon the Army, and Officers, and the British Constitution, and Lord HILL, and a variety of other topics were printed, there appeared in the newspapers his letter to Sir JOHN GIBBON, after having been convicted of a libel against that exemplary Magistrate, which letter will be found in another column of our paper to- day. We sincerely congratulate Lord BRUDENELL upon the result of this affair. We need not congratulate Lord HILL, because, let his Lordship and his conduct be placed where they may, they will alike staud firm, and come out gallantly and honourably: but we DO congratulate the PEOPLE, that the prerogative of the Crown has been so constitutionally upheld, and that the extent of real mischief, in Parliament at least, has been so clearly defined. THE University of Oxford has done its duty— done it too in a manner which we think must prove to demonstration the absurdity of giving to two Proctors— servants, in fact, of the University, or if not servants, officers of very inferior authority— a power of stifling by their veto the voice of a vast body of pious and enlightened persons. We copy our account of the proceedings of Thursday from the Standard:— Oxford, May 5th. The statute in censure of Dr. H 4 MPDEN'S principles was carried this day in Convocation by a large majority. It was understood thatgreat exertions had been privately made by his party, with a view to secur- ing such a minority as would render the judgment of the University questionable ; and it might, have been apprehended that Dr. ARNOLD'S article in the Edinburgh Review on the " Oxford Malignants," toge- ther with the misrepresentations and calumnies so copiously indulged in by several publications on Dr. HAMPDEN'S side, mighthave shaken the resolution or confused the judgment of many members of Convo- cation. It was reported, indeed, that 300 voters were expected to make their appearance against the statute. This morning a fresh source of uneasiness arose in the production of a legal opinion by Dr. LUSHINGTON, which pronounced the pro- posed statute to be" illegal, and which was now brought forward at the eleventh hour in hopes of embarrassing the Vice- Chancellor, and intimidating the Convocation from proceeding. Had this article suc- ceeded, incalculable mischief would have been done; but it is under- stood that the Vice- Chancellor at once put it aside with a prompti- tude and good sense which reflect the highest credit on him. The Convocation assembled in the theatre at two o'clock, and almost immediately afterwards the Heads of Houses entered ( the venerable Dr. ROUTH, president of Magdalen, as before, leading the procession^), and after the usual forms, the statute was read aloud by the Registrar of the University. A debate of considerable length ensued. The opponents of the statute ( some of whom excited much laughter from their extreme violence) were two very respectable laymen, the Warden of Merton, and Mr. P. DUNCAN, of New College, and two or three other members of Convocation of little distinction. On the other side were Mr. MILLER, of Worcester College, late Bainpton lecturer, and Mr. KEBLE, professor of poetry, two ot the most eminent men connected with the University. The proceedings, however, were interrupted for a time from the following circumstances :— the undergraduates, whose feelings on this question are strongly with the rest ot the University, were, to tlieir great annoyance, precluded from witnessing the discussion, as it was judged inconsistent with the gravity and importance of the occasion to permit those interruptions and that expression of feeling to which their presence would naturally give rise. This measure did not insure the peace of the proceedings inside, and a shout of disappointment was followed by several stones, which broke some of the wiudows of the theatre. " However, for a time the discussion proceeded without much interruption; but as Mr. MILLER closed his speech, the tumult outside ( stimulated, it is said, by a reporter from some London newspaper) became violent, and the door below was at last burst in by repeated blows, when the undergraduates rushed up stairs, and breaking open a window look- ing down into the theatre, greeted the assembled University with loud cheering. The Proctors were obliged to leave their seats and proceed to the gallery, where they succeeded in restoring order, and removing the ardent youths whose interest was so strongly but irregularly manifested. The debate shortly afterwards terminated by mutual consent, as every one was tired. Other speakers were prepared to deliver their sentiments, and amongst them it is said Dr. ARNOLD, who ought to- have been ashamed to show his face after his late article against the University ; but so much time had been occupied by persons whose arguments had little claim to attention, that every one was glad to see the voting begin. At the close the numbers stood as follows:— For the the statute 484 Against it 94 Majority 390 Thus has Oxford done her duty once more, in spite of all the threats, artifices, promises, calumny, ridicule, and misrepresentation to which she has been subjected; and if she has earned the immortal and bitter hatred of the enemies of the Church of England, it will be a matter of glory to her children in future years, that in times of danger, perhaps of destruction, she remained the uncompromising and undaunted defender of the Established Faith of the Church. MR. SPRING RICE, of superficial- knowledge fame, brought forward the budget on Friday, after many very just and reasonable excuses for his incompetency; the details of his reductions in taxation will be hailed with enthusiasm by the country. They amount to the enormous sum of 351,0001.— of which vast diminution the people receive the benefit of a reduction upon insurances on farming buildings and ( he tax upon taxed carts. The details will be found in another part of our paper. THF, lengthened adjournment proposed by the Ministers has been made a subject of serious discussion in the City. It has been said that Lord GLENELG is to be pushed out of his Colonial bed bv Mr. EDWARD ELLICE, during the recess. We doubt this— tile constant repetition of this story tends to its discredit, as in iEsop's fable of the cry of " wolf," or whatever other animal may suit the fancy of the political shepherds, has grown stale. We suppose Mr. O'CONNELL has ordered the adjournment to suit his occasion. He will be ousted from his seat in a day or two, and an attorney of the name of SULLIVAN, one of his joints, has vacated Kilkenny to make his fall easy; it is May 22. JOHN BULL. 628 necessary, therefore, for the whole business of the country to be delayed until Lord MELBOURNE'S master gets returned again. THE news from Spain is most favourable to the KING'S cause: another sea- port town, Zumaya, has been taken by the Royal army. It is at the mouth of a river, and a most valuable position. The line- of- battle ships fitting out at our dock- yards are wretchedly manned, and as we have before stated, the Captains are bitterly complaining of the cheese- paring system of the O'CONNELL Board. France will not— or rather, we should say, LOUIS- PHI- LIPPE, will not interfere; and his principal reason for the resolution is, because Lord PALMERSTON urges his doing so most importunately-— not to use anothsr word of no very dis- similar sound— His MAJESTY is not so blind as CUPID. IT is very amusing to see how readily the Ministers and their adherents reconcile themselves to a defeat. The organs of the Government, in commenting upon the overthrow of the Irish Constabulary Bill in the House of Lords, declare, with a sort of grin of affected self- satisfaction, that the amendments moved by the Conservatives on Monday were quite unim- portant. Were they ?— Just look at what they are. In the first place, the economical, non- patronage Govern- ment Bill empowered the Lord Lieutenant to appoint forty- two county inspectors, at 5001. per annum each— reduced by the amendments to four. In the second place, the economical, non- patronage Govern- ment Bill created 42 paymasterships, at 1001. per annum— reduced by the amendment to 10: so that the unimportant alterations, to which the Government have no intention of objecting, have at one blow annihilated SEVENTY NEW OFFICES, for the creation of which the economical, non- pa- tronage Government Bill provided. In addition to this disagreeable destruction of patronage, and absurd saving of upwards of twenty- two thousand pounds per annum, the unimportant amendment deprives the Government of the disposal of an unlimited number of offices, ranging between the value oflOOI. down to twenty- eight pounds a year, the number of which are, by the amendment, fixed and determined; and moreover, and above all this, the amend- ment has expunged from the Bill certain words, tending to deprive the Court of Exchequer of all power of enforcing its decrees in Tithe causes. And these, the adhesive AVhigs call " unimportant amend- ment !" Since writing the above, we see that Lord ELLENBOROUGH on Friday, moved and carried an amendment that, " it should be lawful for the LORD LIEUTENANT, or other Chief Gover- nor, or Governors of Ireland, by warrant, under his or their hands, to nominate and appoint eighteen pay- masters, store- keepers, and clerks, an d fix what districts they should belong to." His Lordship also gave notice of two clauses to enable the Grand Jury to ascertain the movements and estimate tile ex- pense of the Constabulary force in Ireland. THE statements as to the Bill, now falsely called Sir JOHN CAMPBELL'S, for abolishing Imprisonment for Debt are rather contradictory. The LORD CHANCELLOR, with a view of preserving in its present entire state of unnecessariness and inutility that precious anomaly of Lord BROUGHAM'S ( quere, Mr. VIZARD'S ?), the Court ofReview— a Court consisting of six Commissioners, to do the work of three— made a declara- tion in the House of Lords that new duties would be very soon imposed upon that Court by virtue of the provisions of the Bill in question, which he intended speedily to introduce, and until such period proposed continuing the Court of Re- view in its present state. The LORD CHANCELLOR may he very sincere in his inten- tion of introducing such a measure; but he cannot believe that it will pass into a law. If he does, such does not appear to be the unanimous opinion of all whose duty it is to give information upon this subject— for, we see a statement in one of the daily papers, that upon an application by the Judges of the Insolvent Debtors' Court for information whether or not their summer circuits ( which will " be unnecessary if im- prisonment for debt be abolished beforehand) should be advertised as usual, they were told " yes," and that their Court, which only sits now ( by virtue of a short annual Bill) from year to year, and which the Abolition of Imprisonment for Debt Bill proposes to put an end to, was to be done nothing with this Session. Will it be done anything with next Session ?— we think not. We are sure that the Ministers and their lawyers are in a pretty mess in the midst of their legal reform. The Court of Review will still remain, and the only reform in the Court of Chancery will be the creation of a new Judge and officers at an increased expense of at least THIRTEEN THOUSAND POUNDS PER ANNUM, for which additional outlay no practical good whatever can be derived. Compelling the suitor, although it leaves the number of appellate tribunals from the Vice Chan- cellor or the Master of the Rolls precisely the same as at prevent, to have his cause actually argued once more than is now necessary ( namely, before the new Judge, as the Lord Chancellor may now, and often does sign the decree by war- rant, with a view to the case going to the House of Lords without argument), and thus increasing the fees of counsel and every other incidental charge, without doing that, which it is the avowed and professed object of the Bill to do— to separate the judicial from the political duties of the Great Seal, but leaving, after all this profession and expense, the ultimate appellate tribunal just exactly as it now is, and the LORD CHANCELLOR just as much a Judge, a politician, and a Minister, as he is now, and has been for the last hundred years and more. of that, which no man can gainsay, the " the religious ob- servance of Sunday." But, as one speech was delivered at that meeting which, received as it was with pious cheers and holy exclamations, completely substantiates all our opinions, and justifies all our views and anticipations upon the subject, we think we may venture to quote it, as we find it in the co- lumns of our excellent contemporary the Standard. The speech to which we allude was delivered by Sir OS- WALD MOSF. LEY, and we give it as we find it. The worthy Baronet, alluding to the debate in the House of Commons," when Sir ANDREW AGNEW'S last effort was defeated, said— or at least is reported to have said— this :— Magistrate of the county, for which Sir JOHN GIBBON pro- secuted Mr. JOSEPH HUME, and of which offence— it ap- pearing to the Jury, strange to say, that our pro tem. repre- sentative had not the slightest foundation for his facts, nor the most humble authority for his statements— Mr. JOSEPH HUMF. was found guilty. This verdict having been recorded, nothing remained but to bring up our representative, and send him to occupy the apartments in Newgate, erst the abode of the most Noble the Marquess of SLIGO, Governor, Captain- General, Chan- cellor, Vice- Admiral, & c. & c. & c. of Jamaica, and of the Right Honourable Sir JOHN CAM HOBHOUSF,, Baronet, President of the Board of Control, and several other worthies of equal " Even in the House of Commons the agitation of this question had virtue and importance,— when, lo and behold, our pro tem. done some good.

Mr. JOSEPH HUME wrote a letter to a newspaper, delibe- rately and considerately, in which he stated a certain number of incontrovertible facts against the honour, and indepen- dence, and purity of Sir JOHN GIBBON, a gentleman and a January, addressed to the editor of the Morning Chronicle. have made a mistake in representing you to have been present at the meeting at Staines, when you were not: and, in my letter of the 3d of February, in answer to yours of the 2d, I stated that my noticing your name was against the general rule I had laid down for my conduct for many years; and that it was against the system I complained; and as soon as I was convinced that you were not present, I corrected the error through the same public channel the charge had been made. " I am now satisfied, on inquiry, that I was equally in error in stating that any elector who had voted for me at a former election had been refused a license for a public- house on that ground, or that any elector who had voted for Mr. IFood and against me had got a license ; and I am now satisfied that Mr. Carpenter's speech at the meeting alluded to did not go that length ; although when I wrote my letter of the 23d of January, I was certainly under the full impression ( an im- pression caused by confusion of what had passed at more than one public meeting,) that such had been the case. Being now con- vinced that I have made these mistakes, I can have no hesitation in correcting them, and in acknowledging therefore ( which I do), that the charge which I have made against you is unfounded. I therefore distinctly retract it; and at the same time, express my regret that I should have made it, or have given you any trouble or uneasiness, which I am now free to confess you did not deserve. I am, Sir, your obedient servant, " JOSEPH HUME. " To Sir John Gibbon, Bart., & c." - Ugh! THE gallant— or— rather as it pronounced upon this special occasion— the gallant Captain BERKELEY, has carried his motion for the admission of ladies to hear the debates in the House of Commons. At this we rejoice, because it is clear that the result will produce a change in the Government of the country. Lord JOHN RUSSELL, Lord PALMERSTON, Mr. SPRING RICE, Mr. POULETT THOMSON— none of these will hereafter rule the destinies of the State-— the whole administration will be transferred to the ladies, who, by their frowns or smiles, will be enabled to " threaten or command," and, by adopting a close superintendence of our parliamentary proceedings, turn the scale which way they will, at pleasure. To some gentlemen who never speak, but who always attend— at least say they do, when tliey leave home for the the evening— this power of entrance will be rather puzzling, for there they must be, in case their moping wives should choose to enliven themselves by a scene or two from the gal- lery, while, on the other hand, the facility of admission for ladies, whose husbands are not Members of Parliament, will secure them from the possibility of a rude interruption to their studies of elocution and politics. The ventilator had its advantages— perhaps, in a certain degree superior to those proposed by the new arrangement ; however, of course the Members will have access to the ladies' gallery, as well as to other parts of the House, and will avail themselves ofthe opportunity of receiving their instructions as to their line of conduct, and tone of speech. This will do good. Every lady in the land is a Conservative. The wives of Conservatives, because they are amiable creatures, and agree with their husbands; and the wives of Radicals, be- cause, however they may regard their spouses, they hate their politics— and, because, a little contradiction in a family is rather enlivening. All we are sure of is this— that if the women of England were polled out, there would be a Tory majority of two- thirds; for though they are Destructives with their eyes, they are Conservatives in their hearts. Let their healing influence spread itselfamongst the squabbles of the House of Commons— let beauty, and accomplishments, and intellect, and kindness combined, assume the control of that motley assembly; and if it do no more, surely their presence there will secure the deliberations of that assembly from the hootings and yellings, and " crowings," and " Oh ! oh'ings," by which, whenever the liberal, impartial, and patriotic Members of it, are disinclined to listen to reason, its proceedings are now interrupted and protracted. These, however, are but bright visions, not likely to be realised. The motion has been carried, but we apprehend it will be as speedily rescinded, and the House of Commons remain as unblest and as uncivilized as before. ON Friday week there was a meeting held at the Joint Stock Exeter Hall Company's Room, in the Strand ( about which, and the nuisance and injury done to society by the abstraction of hundreds of women of the middling classes from their homes and their duties to hear speeches, we shall shortly have to say not a few words), upon the often- dis- cussed question of what is called the " due observance" of the Sabbath, at which the Lord Bishop of LONDON presided. We have so often expressed our feelings upon the subject of legislating in order to attain this great end, and have so often been complimented by those who, forgetting how the Sabbath has been for centuries observed in this happy, hospitable, and benevolent country, that we shall abstain from remarking upon any of the speeches which were made upon the oc- casion, and which merely had for their object the vindication is no laughing matter, but, on the contrary, one of the most serious corroborations of our own views and opinions that could have been adduced. We have always contended against legislative enactments, regarding the observance of Sunday, because we are quite sure that any such attempt would immediately induce the infraction of the laws to be made, and thence would arise dis turbances, and discontents, and rebellion. It is upon this ground we have always argued— we have shown the odious- ness of interfering with the pursuits or amusements of free, people of the lower classes, on the day of rest which is given them for their sole use and application. What does Sir OSWALD MOSELEY do in this speech ? Why, he shows that our opinion is perfectly correct, and that the attempt to meddle with the observance of the Sunday in Rome created so great a sensatiou— even in a city where the POPE,. who is, in spite of Sir OSWALD'S joke, universally held to be infallible— that his Holiness ( obeyed to the minutest par- ticular, even to the kissing of his holy toe, upon every, other point of religion), was himself compelled to rescind the attempt he had made legislatively to enforce a better observ- ance of the Lord's- day. We ask no more— this is the whole point and gist of our argument against all these Bills. The Bishop of LONDON'S proposal for an increased number of places of worship is un- objectionable; let every inducement beheld out to the people voluntarily to flock to Divine worship— all that is pure, and. right, and just, and proper ; but do not restrict the people from eating hot meat, taking long walks, riding or driving, on the only day when they have the opportunity of doing so, or row- ing a boat up to a public- house, and eating cakes and drinking ale. after they have performed tlieir religious duties. Where is the impiety, where the wrong of this ? The misfortune is, that, as the march of intellect goes on, the temptations offered to the metropolitan mechanic and his family, of availing themselves of the advantages of steam and iron, in order, by starting early on the Sunday, to see places heretofore far beyond their ken, are very great, and the combination of health, novelty, amusement, and instruc- tion offered at so cheap a rate as that at which they are now attainable, are scarcely to be resisted by the worn- down labourer of six previous days. But then, this event,, to which we allude, is not likely to occur every week, and as an exception to the general rule, might be occasionally overlooked. There can be no question but that the facility of obtaining accommodation must greatly contribute to congregating persons at places of Divine worship; and the great facilities afforded to people of all classes in Roman Catholic Churches — open all day for their devotions— are most essentially ser- viceable, as miugling religion with almost every act of social life. But the Roman Catholic, when his duty is done and his conscience satisfied, feels Sunday to be, as we hold it to be, a day of rest and a festival. There, and there only, however, strongly we may at different times have put the case in a ridiculous point of view, do we differ with the most zealous advocates of the question. But we need say nothing— Sir OSWALD MOSELEY has, under the roof of the sacred Joint- stock Company's Hall in the Strand, said all that we could wish to be said; namely, that legislating upon such a subject is in the highest degree perilous, aud that what the POPE, with all his infallibility and the sacred College at his back, cannot enforce upon the blind, bigotted Papists of Rome, is not likely to be effected in these days by two or three Pro- testant Bishops in England.— In fact, Sir OSWALD MOSELEY has settled the question. WE regret very much to see a systematic and decided . attack upon the New Cattle Market at Islington. Nobody can doubt as to the nuisance which Smitlifield— once a field well suited for the purpose— has now become. We regret to find petty and paltry interests interfering with a vast improve- ment in the metropolis, and those interests supported by persons who, affecting to have the interests of the City at heart, ought to know that the ground upon which the market is now held, would, if laid out in handsome streets and squares, produce infinitely more than it does at present; while, by the adoption of the New Market, the narrow lanes through which the cattle are now driven, would be freed from the inconvenience and danger, and the City relieved of a most odious stench, and all the associations of drovers and worse, and the abominations of low night- houses, and all their concomi- tants. We remember, a fuss was made about removing the Haymarket— six months got rid of the clamour, and Westmin- ster has for ever got rid ofthe nuisance. D R. H A M P D E N. TO JOHN BULL. SIR,— I venture to request your insertion of the following remarks, on the strength of your well- known readiness to expose the blunders and errors into which the enemies of all that is good and venerable are continually plunging. Dr. HAMPDEN seems to be eminently fortunate in the supporters he finds for his cause, when they come forward with so bungling aud ludicrous a proceeding for saying a word: 150 JOHN BULL: May 8. in iiis favour, as that to which I am about to request your attention. Your enlightened contemporary the Globe, on Wednesday last, gave insertion to a letter, purporting to come from an individual who, having some prejudice against Dr. H., yet wishing to he candid, determined to judge for himself, by going to hear him preach. Accordingly, happening to be on his road to Oxford, he stops at Eweime ( the living attached stitutiou," or articles of partnership of the Republic, in allowing the Federation of States to take from the several independent " Sovereign"' States, the right of self- taxation ; and also— here is the point— by enabling those several inde- pendent " Sovereign" States, private partners in the mercan- tile firm, to borrow separately in the aggregate, ten times the amount of the original joint debt. The juggle is, that by this arrangement the creditors had formerly a national security, • VJ. JUJU, ± 11, OMPA AV U N OMIV. ^ UTR UIIHLUW AIIAU^ CIII^ UI LUC TIANIUIA " « U IUIIULIU A IIAUUIIUI ^ LUIIL^ to the Professorship), on Sunday last ( May 1st), where he is whereas now the creditors have only individual security; and told the Doctor is to officiate. He praises him for doing his own duty, " unlike many of the dignitaries of the Church." He goes to Eweime Church, and gives a minute account of what he witnesses: this is in itself worthy of notice. The Rev. Professor reads badly, but preaches with " great ability" and " true eloquence," and, moreover, " EXTEMPORE." His doctrine, too, is thoroughly orthodox, and " savours more of the Evangelical school than " of the Socinian." He dwells • upon " faith and grace," and " denies that the Old Testament law is binding upon Christians." All this completely removes the writer's prejudices: he goes away entirely convinced that Dr. H. is a most excellentand orthodox man, and " really in earnest." This is, indeed, admirable testimony! and bears internal evidence of coming from a most competent and consistent witness, whose veracity is indeed manifest in the mere ex- posure of his simplicity. No one can doubt that he really saw and heard what he describes in Eweime Church on Sun- day, May 1st. But, Sir, the best part of the thing remains to be told. Dr. H. has not yet gone to reside at his living; his person is probably little known there as yet; and on Sunday, Mav 1, he was in Oxford the whole day • and the individual who officiated for him at Eweime, and to whom the equivocal eulogies of the Globe's friend must therefore be transferred, was a man not less notorious in heterodoxy— his friend, Pro- fessor POWELL. These facts are obviously such as admit of easy verification, were it necessary. The affair is sufficiently amusing. Perhaps the Globe may learn a useful caution as to inserting anonymous information to the injury of its own cause, and Dr. HAMPDEN'S friends may find that such auxiliaries do them little credit. But, Sir, allow me to add a word of more serious import with respect to Professor POWELL, the great supporter of Dr. HAMPDEN— the friend and disciple of Dr. WHATBLY. He has just published a pamphlet in favour of Dr. H., which, if it prove anything, proves a little too much. It casts off the mask, and shows what the tenets of the HAMPDEN school really are. The author, so far from denying a single charge brought against Dr. H., tacitly admits everything ; and rests his appeal on the right of every man to think and speak as he pleases: he is equally ready to allow Rationalism, Socinian- ism, Deism, or Atheism ! He deliberately sets down the Sab- bath as equally superstitious with the Mats ( p. 17), and denies, on geological grounds, the trutli of the Book of Genesis and the Decalogue ( p. 30.)—( Remarks on a Letter to Lord Mel- bourne., Sfc. Oxford, 1836.)— I barely allude to these fearful errors— perhaps, Sir, you may think them not unworthy of more serious castigation at another time. I remain, your obedient servant, Oxford, May 5, 1836. OXONIENSIS. THE Buckinghamshire Herald of last week had the follow- ing account of the visit of his Grace the Duke of NEWCASTLE to Eton:— The Duke of NEWCASTLE visited Eton College on Sunday last. He honoured the head- master with his company to dinner. On Monday the head and lower masters presented an address to his Grace signed by all the masters, expressive of their deep sense of obligation for his splendid munificence towards the school. He was pleased to acknow- ledge the address in very handsome terms. In the afternoon the scholars saluted him with several rounds of hearty cheers as his car- riage drove off. Hopes are entertained, and we trust on a good foun- dation, that his Grace will visit the college at the next election. He is the founder of three scholarships at Eton, tenable for three years each, of 501. per annum, for the best scholar, and a gold medal for the second best; 501. is also provided as a remuneration to the exa- miners for the scholarships. Ill the present age of so called utilita- rian economy, such pious and princely liberality bespeaks true nobi- lity and real elevation of mind, no less than a patriotic desire to promote the best interests of the country, by the encouragement of sound and religious learning. IF our Ministers are as ignorant of transatlantic affairs as their organs of the press, then the interests of the King's sub- jects, involved in those affairs, are indeed in a hopeful plight. The Morning Chronicle of Monday week said, in reference to the importaut intelligence from the United States, that " the duties on all goods are paid at the time of importation." This is not only not the case, but it is owing to its not being the case that the jugglery of a pretended liquidation of the public debt in America has been practised successfully, and at the expense, not of importers into the United States, but of ex- porters from Europe, and principally from Great Britain. In truth, this jugglery has been the de'ath- blow, not merely of the doctrines of free- trade, but of free^ trade itself. We are well aware that the subject of the American tariff is a very ticklish one on both sides of the Atlantic; but it is as important as ticklish, and in proportion as it is important, we shall boldly and fearlessly discuss and expose it. By the way, we should observe, that this subject is insepa- rably connected with Stock Exchange transactions ; but there are pressing reasons, on account of the late wholesale destruc- tion by fire, of " importations" into New York, and on account of consequential exportations from Great Britain, why we should first discuss this one branch of the subject— namely, the duties levied and payable on importations. The ladies and gentle- men who dabble with American scrip can, before we discuss the other branch of the subject, consult their stock- brokers, or Mr. NICHOLAS BIDDLE, jun., who has arrived in London to nego- tiate the transfer from the late United States Bank, to any one who may be caught out of Bedlam here, of seven millions of capital due from that Bank to the American Government, and for the payment of which they already hold Philadelphian and United States securities! * But now to the point, as to duties on importations into the United States of North America. The truth is, that whatever Mr. POWER, the player, in his " propitiatory prologue" to his next appearance at the Park Theatre, may say to the con- trary, these United States must, in order to an understanding of this important subject, be looked upon as a mere mercan- tile firm, dependant on Great Britain, by whom they were set « P in business about fifty years ago upon borrowed capital, and that as a mere mercantile firm they have, in violation of their own articles of partnership, raised money on the security of the component members respectively of the film, and by the accumulation of duties impose'd unlaw- fully on all importations, paid off their joint debts. We say unlawfully, because— to use the words of General ' JACKSON— a " wound has been inflicted on the original con- moreover, the creditors had formerly a claim on the Union or firm, which must have paid both principal and interest of borrowed capital, or been ruined as a nation or firm, whereas now the nation may snap its fingers at creditors, and refer to individuals for pavment, who have made Insolvent Laws among themselves, enabling them to snap at their creditors their fingers also! From this juggle, one of three things must eventually happen. The Federation of States must take upon themselves conjointly the payment of all the debts due from all the States respectively, and continue the usurped power of levying duties on all importations, or all the States must as- sume respectively their original power to levy duties on their individual importations, OR the creditors must- lose the money advanced. It cannot be for a moment supposed that Great Britain would go to war with the United States, as a nation, or mercantile firm, on account of money advanced to the private members of that firm, no more than it could be sup- posed that that nation would go to war with us, on account of money lent by them to the individual counties of Great Britain. It is on account of the vast interests at stake, and on ac- count of the conflicting and untoward state of things, which " the wound inflicted on the original Constitution" has pro- duced, that there have been frequent and almost annual pa- nics in the monetary concerns of the United States, each of which panics has well nigh dissevered the Union, and each of which panics has been successively accompanied with accu- mulated dangers. During one of these panics, in 1834, Gene- ral MARCEY, Governor of the State of New York, sent to his Congress at Albany, a Message," from which the following is an extract:— " Under the laws, duties to the amount of fifteen millions annually accrued upon imports at the port of New York, the payment of which was secured by bonds payable at different periods, some as long as eighteen months. As the merchandise was generally sold by the importer soon after the execution of his bond for the duties, it is obvious that the credit afforded by the Government was to him equivalent to so much capital until the time of payment should arrive. Before this a fresh importation enabled him to create a new credit, and thus a very large amount of capital was constantly in use among those engaged in commercial pursuits."— Governor's Message to the Senate at Albany, 25th March, 1834. Here then, with due deference to our Ministerial organs, we have real authority on the subject of American duties. Governor MARCEY, however, has here let out the truth, but not the whole truth; his deficiencies we will supply. This Governor of an " imperium in imperiof should have added the important and necessary information as to the considera- tions, on account of which the duration of credit for the payment of duties is always made to depend. These conside- rations are numerous; but we will only mention three of them for our present purpose, namely— 1st. The consideration on account of the political influence, past and future, of the importer. 2nd. The consideration, on account of the com- mercial influence on both sides the Atlantic, as to " fresh importations"— and, 3rd. The con- si- der- a- tion put into the hands of the " Citizens" officially in the receipt of customs. We will discuss, now, only the second of these considerations, that on account of which the duration of credit for the pay- ment of duties is determined. It must be obvious to any practical man, that any nation which lends to its citizens, after the sale of the importations, fifteen millions annually out of the duties on those importa- tions, in one city only, must grow rich, not out of the duties, but out of the importations on which the duties are levied. Governments grow rich by revenue, but not so the nation which pays it. Superficial reasoners and the recipients of the revenue identify the two. But it never entered the head of anything but a pin, a philosopher, a political economist, or a Chancellor of the Exchequer, that a nation grows rich by paying to itself duties on the importations they consume. Hence, every shilling of the duties " appropriated" by the United States Government in liquidation of the national debt, came out of the pockets of " the people," who pretend they pay no taxes, and who, as we shall presently see, are the mere conduits through which the duties on importations are derived. Governor MARCEY tells us, that " as the merchandise was sold by the importer soon after the execution of the bond for the duties, it is obvious that the credit afforded by the Go- vernment was to him equivalent to so much capital." Yes. But it was borrowed capital, for the payment of which two other sureties were hound, and for the payment of which, the Importer and bis sureties were severally and jointly liable until every farthing was paid ; and hence, as in the case of our " extents in aid," the property of other creditors is made in cases of failure exclusively amenable for those duties. Sup- pose, therefore, that those importers and their sureties were all honest men— that they had no American creditors, except the Government creditor to, claim on the spot an " equitable adjustment" in case of failure; and suppose there were no American laws sanctioning exclusive and " confidential assignments" among the citizens; suppose all this — what then ? Do the importers, who " generally sell the mer- chandise in bulk AT AUCTION, for the sake of possessing themselves of the duties on credit, and to manoeuvre them so as to induce fresh importations"— do these importers" generally" realize profits ultra the duties and all other costs atid charges ? Because, if they do not, it is as " obvious" as the steeple of Bow Church, that the losses on " fresh importations" must be proportioned to their quantity to somebody. To whom, then, do those losses accrue ? Why, clearly to the importer, if he be a man able and willing to bear them— and, in default of his abi- lity and willingness, TO THE EXPORTER ! Now, reader, if it be not thy pecuniary interest individually, it is thy duty, as one of the subjects of Great Britain, to con- sider the enormous magnitude of our exportations, under the above circumstances, to the United States— to consider the enormous amount of duties accumulated by the United States Government on their importations principally from us ; and then to consider, that those States are confessedly on the verge of rebellion and anarchy, unprecedented in consequences in the history of the world, by reason of conflicting interests and bitter animosities, political, commercial, and religious, all of which have been brought to pass by a rotten system of banking, and pa- per liabilities issuing out of that system. According to an official American statement now before us, there were on the 1st of J an. last./ jtic hundred and fifty- eight joint- stock banks in the United States, which banks had, in the aggregate, under laws compelling cash payments on demand, only forty- three millions of specie to answer three hundred andfifty- eight millions of paper ! We leave all this to the reader's consideration until next week, when we will renew the subject. In the meantime divested of all party feeling— we bespeak the serious attention of all our Ministers to the treaty between Great Britain and the United States, which, in spite of our bankrupt and insolvent laws, and in spite of their laws " of " confidential assignments," guarantees, for mutual benefits, the effectual bond fide opera- tion in the Courts of either country, by the subjects or citizens litigating in either country, of the common law of England. WE find the follovving extract from the Dublin Evening Mail, in the Leicester Conservative Standard for the present month ; and in borrowing it from its pages, we avail ourselves of the opportunity of again recommending the work as one of sound principle and great ability, got up in a manner unequalled by any provincial publication in the empire. The paragraph to which we allude is this :— " A very extraodinary fact has come to our knowledge respecting the inquiry instituted by the friends of Mr. DANIEL WHITTLE HARVEY in the House of Commons, for the purpose of whitewashing that im- maculate patriot. It will he recollected that the Benchers of the Inner Temple had, for certain acts, refused to call the Southwark M. P. to the bar. Upon which O'CONNELL is placed in the chair, and a mock inquiry instituted into the circumstances, all the attending members of the Committe being of their own clique ; the witnesses were not examined upon oath, and many of them were WHITTLE HARVEY'S personal friends, who were brought from Colchester and other places to speak to character, Now will it be believed— and yet it is a fact within our means of proof— that these witnesses were actually paid one guinea per day each, by order on the Treasury, signed by Daniel O'Connell! Is there no independent Member in the House of Com- mons, who will move for a return of all the expenses incurred and paid by the Treasury in this matter ?" LITERARY. As each month revolves, our surprise is increased by the regular appearance of the mass of information and amusement which is to be found in the different works which appear periodically throughout the empire. Those at present before us contain abundant examples of ability, and genius, and learning, and even wisdom. Fraser's Magazine is particularly rich this month; and we la- ment that want of room prevents our drawing upon its stores for the edification of such of our readers, as for their sins or misfortunes, are not amongst the subscribers to it. In the United Service Journal will be found, as we anticipated last week, Colonel DICKSON'S reasons for quitting the Isle- o'- Doggian army in Spain. In that gentleman's communication will be found stated as facts, answers to questions which our able correspondent MILES has, through the medium of Bull, put to Brigadier- General EVANS; they have, as yet, induced no public notice from that officer. To speak of Blackwood, the New Monthly, and the Metropolitan, would be but to repeat the praise we have so frequently had occasion to bestow upon them. The British, claims especial regard and atten- tion, and the Dublin University Magazine fully maintains the cha- racter which its first few numbers had raised for it. In the Law Magazine there are several powerful articles. We differ, however, entirely with the writer of that, upon the new Bill for the Registration of Births, Deaths, and Marriages, which appears to us to be as ab- surd in principle as it will be complicated in practice. Mr. FISHER has just commenced a work illustrative of Syria, the Holy Land, Asia Minor, which for beauty and cheapness assu- redly excels all works we have ever seen published in this country. It is quarto size, each number is to contain four admirable engrav- ings, with a proportionate quantity of letter- press, and the price is two shillings per number. Mr. TILT has also commenced a work, under the title of the Shakspeare Gallery, containing the principal female characters in the Plays of the great Poet, splendidly en- graved from drawings by first- rate artists expressly for the work, under the direction and superintendence of Mr. CHARLES HEATH. Of the present three, Viola and Anne Page are exquisitely beauti- ful; Beatrice, though highly characteristic, is not so captivating; the softness and sweetness of the others are exquisite. Mr. ACKERMANN, of the Strand, has recently published a litho- graphic print of The Dangerous Playfellow—& lady toying with a Cupid in her lap, after a small picture by ETTY, in the possession of Mr. VERNON. POPE'S lines— " Fluttering spreads his purple pinions, Gentle Cupid, o'er her heart; She a slave in his dominions, Nature must give way to art," seems to have inspired the Royal Academician, to whom it is no small praise to say, the conception and painting of the picture, are worthy of the poetry. The drawing on the stone does infinite credit to the young artist, Mr. EDWARD MORTON, by whom it is executed. Winkles' Cathedrals of this month, contain views of Winchester ( English), and Chartres ( French). The former, certainly one of the most magnificent specimens of our native Churches, and the latter almost unequalled in beauty, abroad. The effect produced upon the mind by a first visit to Chartres, is indescribable ; its splendour, its vastness, can only be appreciated by those who have seen it: the view given in Mr. WINKLES' work, looking towards the high altar, conveys in as great a degree as possible, the idea of its dimensions and characteristics. We have just risen from the perusual of a work, of which we feel it our duty to say a few words. We mean, " A History of English Episcopacy, by the Rev. J. LATHBURY— and, certainly, if the Reve- rend author had studied his time for sending out such a work, he could not have selected a more appropriate period than the present. The History of English Episcopacy, from the dawn of the Reforma- tion down to the Revolution of 1688, would, if tolerably well done, be a most acceptai^ e addition to our literature at any time; but just at the present mom xnt, when the Church is again threatened by avowed enemies on the one hand, and by false friends on the other, no work could be offered to the public which stands a better chance of being generally studied, and studied with advantage. We have no hesitation in saying that Mr. LATHBURY has well- executed his task. He may, perhaps, here and there lean a little too much to the side of liberalism. We are satisfied, for example, that in giving up the Divine right, which to all intents and purposes he does, when he attributes the origin of the claim to Archbishop LAUD, Mr. LATHBURY goes much farther than the facts will warrant; but we dare say, that these, in our eyes, partial defects, will not tell against him with the multitude. On the contrary, we do not doubt that the tone of remarkable moderation in which he writes, will secure for his performance a favourable reception in quarters where a more rigid Churchman might fail to make his way— and, we speak it in all sincerity, we trust it may; for the author's principles are so sound, his method of telling his story so lucid, his good sense and intimate acquaintance with his subject so conspicuous in every page, that no one can read his book with the May 8. JOHN BULL attention which it deserves, without becoming both the better and the wiser for the exercise. We heartily recommend the work to the public, and entertain no donbt that we shall be thanked by numbers for bringing it to their notice. A most interesting and instructive little volume has been printed for " private circulation only," under the title of a Journal of a Tour in Ireland during the months of October and November, 1S35:— It is full of shrewd remarks, the fruits of active research and keen obser- vation— written in a most agreeable style— and containing, for its extent, more real information with respect to the actual relative state of Popery and Protestantism in Ireland, than anything we remember to have seen.— We believe, however restricted at present the circula- tion of the work is, the name of the author is no secret. It is from the pen of Mr. MATHISON, already most favoutably known in the literary world, and who has in his present book noted down every- thing which occurred worth noticing during a visit which he paid to his property in Ireland during the autumn. Amongst other striking illustrations contained in it, a sermon by the Rev. THOMAS MAGUIRE of Ballinmore, will be read with infinite interest, as a specimen of the • unpolitical character of Popish exhibitions. We cannot conclude our literary notices to- day without calling the attention of our readers to a little work from the pen of the Rev. W. FLETCHER, of Ealing, called Eclipses made Easy, as possessing the mode of simplifying and explaining the wonders of the heavens to the " minds and capacities of the young." Mr. FLETCHER gives the following account of the great Solar Eclipse which will take place next Sunday, the instant, to illustrate which, there is a moveable diagram by way of frontispiece. As the eclipse in question is one of the first importance, we will quote Mr. FLETOHER'S own words:— " The eclipse to which I now must beg to direct your attention, is that of an annular— one of the sun— occasioned, as I have before said, by the moon's passing over the face of the sun, and in which the moon will appear less than the sun, and therefore leave a bright ring of the sun's body around it. , " This eclipse will begin at Greenwich 1 h. 51 m. 12 s. mean time, or 8 m. 48 s. before two in the afternoon ; be at its greatest obscura- tion at 3 h. 19 m. 6 s., and end at 4 h. 39 m. 6 s., or 29 in. 54 s. before five. " Although this eclipse will be in reality an annular eclipse, it will not be so, strictly speaking, to those in this country who live south- ward of a line extending across it, from Whitehaven on the west, and Whitby on the east; or northward, of a similar one, touching the Isle of Mull to the west, and Dundee towards the east, compris- ing a belt of about 140 miles in width. " Its line of central annular appearance will therefore very nearly range with Ayr, Douglas, and Jedburgh, and the duration of its central obscuration will be about 4 minutes and 2 seconds. As 863 parts of the sun's diameter, or nearly nine- tenths will be eclipsed, it is not improbable, if the atmosphere be clear and unclouded, that several of the larger stars will be visible; and little folks must not be surprised if, as was the case in a former total eclipse, the birds be seen betaking themselves to their homes, and if even our domestic fowls appear to have serious thoughts about going to roost, mar- velling as far as they can at the astonishing early coming on " of twilight grey," and not a little puzzled in their philosophy by the shadows of a premature evening extending around them." As we shall have no opportunity before next Sunday of saying a word upon an event so interesting to astronomers, and, indeed, every body else, we thought it as well to extract the information necessary for our readers, in order to put them on the qui vive, from a little book, the style of which is calculated to blend amusement and good nature with science and instruction. His Royal Highness the Prince of ORANGE, accompanied by his two eldest sons, the young Princes WILLIAM and ALEXANDER, ar- rived at Mivart's Hotel, on Thursday, at two P. M., from Rotterdam. The Prince, on landing at the Tower from the Batavier steam- packet, was received with military honours; a battalion of the Grenadier Guards was drawn out, and a Royal salute was fired. Count VON LIMBURG STIRUM, General BACKLER, and two Aides- de- Camps, formed the suite of the Prince. The Duke of WELLINGTON called at the Hotel a few minutes after the Prince's arrival, and had an inter- view with him. The Duke of BEAUFORT and Earl HOWE shortly fol- lowed; and one of the King's carriages, with attendants, was in waiting to convey his Royal Highness to the Drawing- room. His Royal Highness proceeded to the Palace, accompanied by the two young Princes, who are remarkably fine young men, the eldest, the Hereditary Prince, being in his nineteenth year. His Excellency M. DEDEL, the Dutch Minister, preceded their Highnesses to Court. The Prince was warmly welcomed by their MAJESTIES, and received an invitation to dine at St. James's in the evening. Three Royal birthdays will be celebrated towards the close of this month. The KING'S birthday will be kept on Saturday, the 28th; the Princess VICTORIA'S on Tuesday, the 24th, who, having been born in 1819, will be declared of age on that day; and that of Prince GEORGE of CUMBERLAND on Friday, the 27th, who wa « also born in the year 1819. We regret to state that the Countess Dowager of GLENGALL was found dead in her bed on Monday morning. On the previous even- ing she had engaged herself to dine with the Earl of CLARE, in Belgrave- square, but begged they would not wait beyond eight o'clock, as she felt herself rather indisposed with a slight cold. Her Ladyship was in her 61st year. BUCHAREST.— Died, at the residence of his MAJESTY'S Consul- General for the Principalities of Wallachia and Moldavia, on the 7th of April, HARRIET FARRER, relict of the late ROBERT COLQUHOUN, Esq., of Camstroden, Dunbartonshire. Miss PARKER, niece to the Earl of MACCLESFIELD, was united on Tuesday last to the Earl of ANTRIM, at St. George's, Hanover- square. The Archbishop of CANTERBURY, when Dr. HOWLEY, was pri- vate tutor of the Prince of ORANGE, whilst he remained at the Uni- versity of Oxford, previously to the end of the revolutionary war. His Grace is said to have selected and recommended a distinguished scholar to superintend the education of the two sons of that Prince. The Students of Westminster Hospital, on Saturday last, presented Dr. WEATHERHEAD with a handsome and massive silver snuff- box " as a token of their respect and gratitude." The following message was delivered to the wife of a Clergyman in the neighbourhood of Wooton Bassett, a short time since, by the ser- vant of a deceasbd lady. Mrs. C., requesting some flowers, to strew the corpse of her late mistress, after it was placed in the coffin, a usual practice in that part of the country—" Mrs. C. ( the deceased lady), sends she's compliments to she's mistress, and axes she to send her a matter of flowers to stick she now she's dead." This in a positive fact. In the Court of Faculties, on Wednesday, the Neapolitan Minister entered a caveat, on behalf of the King of NAPLES, against the Prince of CAPUA'S marriage with Miss SMYTHE, in favour of which, upon hearing the case, the Judge has decided; so that the young couple must try what banns in a country village will do. In the report of the Commons' Committee on the Midland Coun- ties Railway Bill there is a list of the subscribers for shares; in it appears the following:—" MELBOURNE, Viscount, Downing- street, Prime Minister, 6,0001." And the same list has another curiosity— " TURNER, WILLIAM, Bogota, South America, Ambassador, 2,0001." On Saturday evening last, as Captain ALEXANDER GOURLAY was returning from Berwick to his residence near Norham, he was thrown from his horse with such violence, by his suddenly shying at some object on the road, that he was killed on the spot. The gallant Officer had served long with distinction in the West Indies and during the Peninsular war, with the 23d Regiment. From the sanguinary field of Albuera and other severely contested battles in Spain he escaped unhurt, and his sudden and melancholy death has caused much regret among an extensive circle of friends and ac- quaintances.— Caledonian Mercury. The following gentlemen were on Tuesday called to the degree of Barrister at Law by the Honourable Society of Lincoln's Inn :— John Henry Barker, Esq.; William Robert Ward, Esq.; Alfred Broadhead, Esq.; Charles Robert Mitchell Jackson, Esq.; and Charles Greville Prideaux, Esq.

The Society of Friends of Foreigners in Distress celebrated the 30th anniversary of the institution by a grand dinner at the City of London Tavern, on Monday. The Lord Mayor was the chairman ; on his right was his Excellency Baron d'OMPTEOA. There were three tables besides the cross or upper table, and they were crowded with gentlemen connected with the city of London, and with foreign merchants and others. A variety of toasts were drunk, and the secretary announced the subscriptions at 7501. ECCLESIASTICAL INTELLIGENCE. PR KFERMENTS, APPOINTMENTS. Ac. The Rev. JOHN WILLIAM CLARKE, A.

MISCELLANEOUS. ST. PAUL'S SCHOOL.— The Apposition of this noble institution took place on Thursday. The school- room was crowded at two o'clock by the friends and relations of the scholors; and about a quarter past two the Masters entered, accompanied by a crowd of distinguished visitors; among whom we noticed the Bishops of DURHAM, BANGOR, andLLANDAFF. The exercises commenced, as usual, with orations in Greek, Latin, and English, to the memory of the munificent founder, Dean COLLETT. They were composed and delivered by the three senior boys of the School ( Messrs. JOWETT, WRIGHT, and JEPH- SON ), in a manner which did credit to their own talents and industry as well as to the attention of their tutors. The prize compositions followed. The subject of the first was " Iter ad Emmaum," for Latin hexameters; of the second, " Futate Jepthee Vtftim," for Gr. Trim, lam. They were both of them written and spoken by Mr. JOWETT, the Captain. The High Master's prize was given to Mr. STOKES for a Latin essay on the following subject:—" Quatnam fuerit Athenien- sium, incoloniis administrandis, imperii conservandi ratio.'" The re- mainder of the speeches were selected from various classical authors, as well ancient as modern, and were spoken with taste, spirit, and judgment. They were all received with much applause. In dis- missing the boys, the High Master stated that the Right Rev. Prelates who were present had requested him to grant them a holiday, which he promised them for some future occasion. This announcement was of course received with repeated cheerings by the parties inte- rested, and the company separated highly gratified by the talents exhibited by the scholars of this venerable establishment. It is now rumoured that Dr. HAMPDEN is to have the Bishoprick which was intended for Dr. SHUTTLE WORTH. At a meeting of the National Society for the Education of the Poor, & c., holden at the Central School, Westminster, on Wednesday last, there were present the Lords Bishops of London, Winchester, Bangor, Carlisle; Rev. H. H. Norris, Rev. Dr. Walmesley, Colonel Clitheroe, W. Davis, Esq., Joshna Watson, Esq., James Trimmer, Esq., and Rev. J. C. Wigram. The annual meeting of the Shareholders of King's College was held on Saturday in the theatre of the institution ; the Archbishop of CANTERBURY presiding. The report was highly gratifying, as showing the usefulness and growing prosperity of the College. The ntimber of pupils had greatly increased, there being now 632 regular and 205 occasional students; and the receipts for the year were 8581. over the ordinary expenditure, leaving 1,5001, in hand above all present liabilities.

By RICHARD HILEY, Author of an English Grammar, Ac. dtc. London: Simpkin, Marshall, and Co., Stationers' Hall- court; John Heaton, Leeds. This Grammar has already obtained the approbation of some of the most dis-' tinguished Philologists of the age, whose sanction, in the estimation of Scholars, will be a sufficient guarantee as to the merits of the Work itself. The Right Rev. Samuel Butler, D. D., late the learned Head- Master of Shrews- bury Free Grammar School, now Lord Bishop of Lichfield and Coventry, has, in ~ letter to the Author, honoured the Work with the following opinion : — " I think your book, wherever I have examined it, done with care and ability ; it is short, clear, and well selected, and likely to be very useful." The learned and distinguished Author of the 44 Gymnasium," Dr. Alexander Crombie, thus speaks of the Work:— 44 I have read your volume, and shall have no hesitation in recommending it as an excellent compendium of the Principles of Latin Grammar. It contains much useful matter, well arranged, and comprised in a small compass. It does equal credit to your industry and your judgment." The opinion of the Rev. J. Holmes, M. A., Head- Master of the Leeds Grammar School:— u It seems to me to contain, within a small compass, a great deal of very useful matter, clearly stated, and judiciously arranged. I think it, on the whole, a very good Grammar."

( A true Copy.) " THOMAS HATCH, Secretary." Upon our acknowledged principle of audi alteram partem, we insert the following:— • Junior United Service Club, 6th May, 1836. SIR,— Although thelittle force under G eneral EVANS is no favourite of yours, I am sure it will meet with justice from you ; and I there- fore request the insertion of this in your Journal of to- morrow. Having been informed, in reference to the case of Brigadier- Gene- ral EVANS and Captain DICKSON, that the taking up the cause of the latter necessarily attacks the Legion, I beg at once to observe that 1 oannot draw any such conclusion. I must, in justice to Captain DICKSON, declare that, up to the period of his resignation, there was iiot a more zealous officer belonging to it than himself: and that although I avow myself now fand from the very first) to be one of his staunchest FRIENDS, I still have every feeling and desire for the prosperity and success of the Legion— most certainly while it remains in the country. I can safely assert, that the appearance and discipline of all those men ( who were not from physical debility quite unfit to be soldiers) • was most wonderful; and that it improved daily under the greatest disadvantages of cold, and constant harassing marches, Sfc. If, on the parts of Staff and Commanding Officers, there was any want of knowledge of the world, and PRACTICAL inexperience in an enemy's country, there was, at least, the greatest zeal and devo- tion. And I am quite sure it will be satisfactory to all Englishmen to know, that being myself sent to bring up the nearest of our people I could find, by Brigadier- General MACDOUGAL, we witnessed thirty or forty " scum" and " refuse" of Great Britain ( being skirmishers fi'omCHICHESTER'S Brigade), bundle out, in double quick time, nearly three times their number of the enemy, who were driven from the village of Menalegiu, near Arlaban, like schoolboys out of an or- chard ; and I am positive, from what I saw then, that the very ivorst " dogsmeatians" that England can produce ( provided they are but sound), can, in six weeks or two mouths, be made a match for any troops in the world.— I remain, Sir, very faithfully yours, H.
