LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, Aug. 18. of money, to be expended in public works in Ireland the greater part to be repaid by the baronies in -which it is to be expended; but a sum of is to be applicable to districts so poor as to be incapable of reimbursing the treasury. The proposal of the noble lord met with the cordial approval of the house, and the sums moved for were granted without a dissentient voice. We fear, however, it will eventually be found that the aid thus proposed to be afforded, will not meet the necessities of the Irish people; either by the early assembling of parliament, or under the responsibility of the government, very much larger advances of public money must be made during the winter.

Railway Legislation. Since writing the article on the subject of private legislation, which appeared in our last, we have seen the report of the select committee appointed to consider the best manner of dealing with railway business in future: it will be found in another column. The committee recommend the constitution of a separate department of the executive for the management "of railway business, which besides exercising the powers of supervision now possessed by the board of trade, shall, through its engineers, investigate and report upon the merits of the projected lines. The utility of such a tribunal will mainly depend upon the extent to which its report influences the decision of the committee of either house to which the consideration of the merits of a line is referred. If the recommendations of this board are treated luele ls uo 111 an 4uni we with no more respect than was accorded to those of M8tnct ltS ts' the raUway department of the board of trade, I J' 's ue Ut many pei-sons, and ourselves among will be of no use whatever but if the same defe- dlfM10 0tb; sectaMan sPirit in rence is shown to its judgment as the decisions of i man' he, scllools for the Poor are con-thn immirJ.

MANCHESTER, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 19, 1846. Proceedings in Parliament. In the house of lords, Fiiday, the proceedings were destitute of importance. On Monday, the Sugar Duties Bill was lead a third time, and passed. In the house of commons, on Friday, Mr.

Hcjie moved that the British Museum, and other public institutions, be opened on Sundays; but, after some remarks from Lord John Hussell, Mr. Gotjlburn, and other members, the motion was withdrawn viLLiEits moved for a committee on the corn-law, for the purpose of correcting an error in the Corn Importation Bill, which causes the duty on rye, peas, and beans, to be regulated by that payable on barley. Lord Gcokge Bentinck opposed the motion, and declared his intention of defending the additional protection which had been accidentally obtained by the farmers. After a few remarks from other members, Mr. Yilliebs withdrew his motion, as there weie not 40 members present.

On Saturday, the third reading of the British Possessions Bill was opposed by Lord George Ben tixck, and a short debate followed, in which Lord John Russell, Mr, Bright, and other members took part but the bill was ultimately carried by a majority of 47 votes against 8. On Monday, Lord John Russell announced the intention of the ministry to abandon the Irish Arms Bill, and subsequently stated the measures which it was intended to adopt to alleviate the distress which is apprehended from the failure of the potato crops in Ireland. A few remarks were made on the same subject by Mr. Lauouchere, the Earl of Lincoln, and other members. Lord George Bentinck called the attention of the ministry to the differential duties levied in Cuba upon goods imported in British vessels and Lord Paimerst-on stated that the subject should not be neglected.

Alleged Early Dissolution or Parliament. The Standard of Thursday last, inserted in a most prominent situation the following rather startling announcement The ministers have certainly resolved to dissolve parlia- ment in October. Electors have, therefore, but two months t0 prepare for the great contest upon which the state of the country must depend, as far as it can be dependent upon human action. The mofne with ministers for accelerating mociwjnu'iwH sumcicmij 'JD-T "-ys itt.i tcuauttf tui viivi v-pcttcutc iita yvuym vucii int- trade and slave-trade encouragement policy, and therefore they are desirous to take the country by surprise, not merely ill-prepared, but ill-informed according to tlie policy that thev hate inherited from Sir Robert Peel. It rests with the electors to banish tbia fraudulent policy from our system The time is short, it is true; but no time is too short for prudent and resohed men to achieve success in a just cause uhich they have at heart.

Let not a moment be lost in selecting proper candidates, honest men, sound protestanta, and protectors of British industry neither Peelites nor whig-radicals of such men the United Kingdom possesses an ample abundance. Let a choice among them he made forthwith, for repeat it parliament will certainly he dissolved in October." We sometimes interpret assertions by their contraries and that seems to tie a tolerably safe rule with respect to any allegation resting on the unsupported authority of the Standard. Inasmuch as that journal declares that parliament will ceHitinly be dissolved in October," it is tolerably safe to assume that there will be no dissolution until after the termination of the next session of parliament Cn. and we believe that such will prove to be the fact, 1 4i, UlliCSS JllllUSiera SllUUlU eilCOUIllel UUUL-Ullica in tuc ouse of commons, which, at present, do not seem very probable. The State or Ireland.

We presume that the lamentable condition of th potato crop in all parts of the kincrdom. and esneciallv in Ireland, will i will be a very valuable reform. We can ourselves i very see no valid objection to the absolute determination as to the construction of projected railways being committed, under certain general provisions, to some permanent and properly-constituted tribunal but if parliament declines to delegate in express terms the authority of sanctioning such interference with private property as the construction of railways frequently involves, it appears to us that the object of securing a uniformity of system in dealing with such enterprises may be secured by passing a bill each session, authorising the construction of those lines, respecting which the railway board has re ported favourably. This principle lias been already adopted in respect to the enclosure of commons. Application for power is first made to the enclosure commissioners, who investigate and decide on the question and a bill is annually brought in to authorise the enclosure of commons in those cases in which the commissioners have sanctioned it.

We are quite sure that until the determination of railway questions is entrusted to some single, permanent, and competent tribunal, lines will be sanctioned without reference to their bearings on each other and great expense will be incurred to repair I errors, which, with uniformity of system, would never have been committed. Preliminary Inquiries tor Piuvate Bills. A bill for this object was introduced into the house of commons on Wednesday the 12 th instant, by Lord Morpeth and Mr. Parker, which will remedy some of the evils of private bill legislation, relating to subjects other than the construction of railways, Ui UUIB.J.J 1 '1 1 T. to some of which evils we have repeatedly directed 1 i.

The classes of private bills for which preliminary inquiries will be authorised are those for water works, for draining, paving, cleansingj 1 and otherwise improving towns and districts, and for making or altering cemeteries, or for continuing, altering, or enlarging the powers contained in any acts relating to such purposes. The promoters of any intended acts of the above classes are to give to the Commissioners of Woods and Forests notice of their intended application to parliament such notice to be accompanied by copies of the pro- i I I in the Migar market, and continually declining prices, a action lM taken place; grocers as well as refineri have pur- The accounts from the wine countries are very favourable.

We exceedingly regret to announce that the venerable Sir Charles Wetherell expired last night, at five o'clock, at Preston Hall, near Maidenhead. Mr. N. Wetherell, and the deceased's clerk and valet were in the room at the moment of his dissolution, bat the learned gentleman was not aware of their presence. He was quite insensible to the last.

Standard. House of Commons, Tuesdax. Railway Boakd. Mr. Morrison moved the confirmation of the resolutions of the Select Committee on Railways, of which he was chairman, with the view to the establishment of a railway hoard for directing the process of amalgamation, and for the general go eminent of railway companies, and for empowering the board to test locally the correctness of the plans and sections deposited with the members of the board.

Air. Hume seconded the motion. The Chancellor of the Exchequer said it appeared to government that to attempt to do more than establish the department at this period of the session would be futile. He would, therefore, propose to bring in a very short bill, giving the board thus constituted some of the powers of the Board of Trade, beside others of a similar kind, to enable them to fulfil their duty. The Vice-President of the Board of Trade was prepared with such a bill, but having been exceedingly ill it happened that it was not laid on the table.

The matter then would be in progress, and the business might be well considered during the recess, and a biil be brought in in the early part of next session, for the complete organization of the board and the arrangement of its duties. He proposed, therefore, to accept the first and second, and perhaps the ninth resolution, and on them to found such a bill. After a short discussion, the first resolution was agreed to. The Funds. City' Two o'clock.

In some respects the English funds look rather firmer to-day, but there is only a limited business doing. '1 he state of political parties excites now, apparently, but little uneasiness, though tie general elections may rae more interestinc. The position of the ministry is looked upon as favourable, and the strength of cue rrencn governmentserves to increase the conhdence lelt here. Possibly, however, with the speedily approaching close of the Loudon season, n-e may hove to record, ere market. Consols are S5g to 05j for present transfer, and 95g for lime.

National Education. In his letter to the editOT of the Morning Chronicle, in reply to Mr. Baines, Dr. Vaughaji expresses his "settled conviction that the only popular education in which the state can be allowed to interfere in this country, is that commonly understood by the terms 5 secular edu-" cation and that in respect to that, even, the aim of government must be, not to supersede or impair, but rather to supplement and improve, the large amount of voluntary effort now directed "to that end." We too highly appreciate the motives of those who have exerted themselves to supply the educational destitution under which England has so long suffered, to have the slightest wish to impair their efforts. It is now pretty generally admitted that the voluntary system has failed to provide for the mass of the people that mental culture which is necessary to make them good citizens and that, if any successful attempt is to be made to repress crime and pauperism by means of education, government must bring its powers to the task.

But because individual exertion cannot do all, it does not follow that it should not be permitted to do anything. We must have security that what it undertakes, it will eiliciently i it i. troiu tlie facilities thus given for religious teaching a uca.ny pui-Kiiuseu, uy ine separation ot children of different denomiuations in those early years when no mutual jealousies and suspicions prevent their cordially associating. But we have no wish and no right to say that those who think the con-1 stant inculcation of certain religious doctrines an essential poition of early education, shall not esta blish schools where such doctrines may be taught or that those parents among the working classes who entertain the same opinion, shall not send their children to such schools. Any one who main' tained such a position would be justly obnoxious to a charge of intolerance.

It will probably he required that every child shall have attended some licensed school for a certain time before he is permitted to obtain employment. In order to render the fulfilment of this condition practicable, schools will be established at the expense, and under the control, of the state; but parents will he at liberty to send their children to any other school which has been approved by a government inspector. The only probable interference, then, in respect to schools established by private liberality, is, that they will be open to a government inspector, who williefuse his certificate unless satisfied witli the secular instruction afforded. This is a condition to which the supporters of no well-conducted school can reasonahly object. Many schools are now open to this supervision and when the inspector is satisfied as to their character, not the slightest interference is attempted with the management of them.

We believe that so far from impairing, a general o- i-uuiwuuai av in Kicubiv luuicaac, cue ClllClCUC 01 scnoois supported dv maiviQuai contributions, supervision 01 a government inspector will be a guarantee that the secular instruction given in 4tiam ic dltfavc tl.n l.l: scnoois will, we believe, by the friendly rivalry which it will create, induce greater exertions in order to add to their efficiency. We are quite sure that those who have exerted themselves hitherto in the cause of popular education, need not fear that their efforts will now be superseded. Lord Joiin Russell is himself an ac- by the Wesleyans, His lordship is deeply sen sible that these exertions have been inadequate, and that some more effectual agency must be set to work but his respect for the conduct of those who have individually laboured to extend the blessings of education, will prevent Lord John Russell from introducing any measure likely to destroy or to impair the efficiency of a single good school. Progress of Fiction.

On Wednesday last we announced the fact that certain 11 it roner-maKers in me neigtiuouriioou OI iuancnester "au given notice ot a reduction ot nve per cent in S. the workmen employed in fabrication of wuu 'S" tbe" had ever had at an-v fonner period, proposed to tLeir employers a diminution in the hours of labour from eleven to ten per day, but without climinu- uon ln lneir wages- employers, ititex mic little demur, acceded to tbe demand; they agreed to nay the same wages for ten as they hud pre- i the recent depression in tne cotton trace nas greauy Uiminished the demand for new machinery, the employers found it impossible to keep up the price 4..,.. .1, 3 il.

Ilislordship appears to have said, we find him reported in the Times: "The passing of tb.9 corn bill, and the prospect of the passing of the sugar bill, bad not appeared to secure the prosperity of the manufacturers, as they were told, jit Oldham, Slack-port, Asiton, Dukiitfield, sD in souk places Yorkshire, the viosler manufacturers nod already given notice to their worhuen of a reduction of jive per cent in their telling them, that, as food was cheaper, (Ley could afiord to work for lower wages." As the master manufacturers in the neighbourhoods particularly specified by Lord GsoReE Ben- tinck have made no reduction whatever in their wages, it becomes obvious that this sweeping statement has been founded entirely upon the very slender fact of a proposed return, by five roller-makers, to the rate of wages which they paid three four months ago, wages very ample in themselves, and higher than had been paid in thtit trade any former period. We cannot help thinking that this story of the great reduction in manufacturing wages, if put into verse, would answer the purpose of explaining the process of exaggeration iuite as well as the fable to which we have ulready alluded.

Mr. Milne's Claim to Compensation. We have received the following letter in reference to ft paragraph which appeared in the Guardian on Saturday last To the Editor of tie Manchester Guardian. Sir, In reference to a naraiFranb contained in vonr nsnur Saturday last, headed, Mr. Oswald Milne's Claim to Compensation," at the commencement of which you observer wo haVA niftiln cnmn innui.iQa .1.:.

1 i.si.iii ma Lung iiktabuu. matter," and which you conclude by stating, it miy therefore bo presumed that further proceeding in this olaim is altogether abandoned by Mr. Milno We have to observe, that your information is erroneous, and that it is Mr. Milno's-determinatiou, under tho adtice of his counsel, to carry on the proceedings instituted for enforcing his claim to compensation and that his counsel have been instructed, some time ago, to prepare tbe draft of a special case for that purpose, iu conformity with the suggestion of Lord Denman, and which will in due course bo laid before the counsel of tho corporation for their perusal. We remain, sir, your obedient servants, Crosslev ot Suuvow.

20, Cooper-street, 18th Aug. 1H46. Messrs. Crosslev and Sldlow are themselves in-error in stating that our information was erroneous. The "information" was strictly correct; the inference from it, to the extent that Mr.

Mile had abandoned all further proceeding in the case, appears-to have been erroneous; though the letter itself shows that there is no intention of resorting to a new trial, which was the particular form of proceeding referred to in the paragraph. To the course now proposed to be adopted there cannot be tho slightest objection. It will most probably afford the cheapest, least troublesome, and most apeedy means of obtaining a final judgment on the validity of the claim. LOCAL AND PROVINCIAL Theatre Roval. We have elsewhere noticed tlie two first performances of Madame Anna Thillon at this theatre, in Auber'a opera of The Crown Diamonds.

We may add, that on Saturday evening, the farce of Tu Irish Attorney, and on Monday evening that of His Ixtst Legs, alfordiid Mr. Hudson scope for displaying his talent as a comedian in Irish characters. He has several points of resemblance to poor Power, but he appears to us to over-act his part, and to want ease and that repose, which by contrast, throws the character into strong and high relief. His performance of O'Calloghan in His Labi Leas was better than that of O'Hara in The Irish Attorney. This evening, we see by tbe advertisement, 77ie Crown Diamonds is to he repeated, with The Irish Post, in which Mr.

Hudson plays O'Grady. To-morrow there is no performance. On Friday, Madame Anna Thillon takes her benefit; the opera is not announced. On Saturday, we see, Flora Fahhri, unquestionably the best dancer in her peculiar style in the world, makes her appearance for that night only) in the ballet of The Devil to Pay; in which she is to be aided by M. Bretin, Mademoiselles Louise and Adele, and Mr.

W. II. Payne. On Monday we are to sen a few old familiar faces Miss Woolgnr, Mr. Robert Roiby, Miss and Mr.

Marshall, and Mr. Mutivard. making their first appearance that evening; their engagement being for six nights only. Queen's Thevtre. This evening and to-morrow tho performances are melo-dramitic.

The Public Parks ind the Salpord Corporation We regret very much to find, that through some unfortunate misapprehension or mistake, the proposed arrangement, by which the Peel Park was to ba transferred by the corporation of Manchester to the corporation of Salford, is for the present in abeyance. It seems that the resolution of the public parks committee, which was pohlished in tho Manchester papers of Saturday lost, was communicated by their hon. secretaries to the mayor of Salford, on Monday morn-ing last; hut that the communication did not reich his worship till after the maating of tho Salford council on that day. We understand that the communication would have been forwarded at an earlier hour, had not the hon- ecrc-taries had an impression that tho meeting of the Salford council, or general purposes committee, would be held on Tuesday (yesterday) morninif.

and not on Mondar. Th.v- therefore, believed that their communication was in time to bo laid before the committee and tho council. These bodies, tho rnnort nf (hp fnt-m- n.n....i:n. judging-from the report of the former, and theproceedingnof uid the absence of any further communication from the parks committee as an intentional light, instead of what it really appears to have been, an accidental oversight or erroneous impression and hence their determination, which wo regret, to lake no part in tbe proceedings of Saturday next. Wo shall not go into the qontion of tlie impressions on the one side or the other, as to vhat really took place, at the intcr- see that several members of the Salford council on Monday, expressed their surprise at the vcrnon given of the matter in the Manchester papers of Saturday.

Upon making inquiry, we find that tlie account in all tbe Manchester papem were, in one respect, defective as, through a mistake, none of them had been furnished with a resolution of the general purposes committee of the Manchester council, and ita place being filled by a resolution of the public parks eomntictee, it was certainly calculated to cause an erroneous and confused notion of tne io make it clear, wo reprint tho passage, putting in the resolution then omitted.

Early in the morning of the 3ist alt. while police-constable John Pearson was passing the passage leading to Mr. Berry's packing place, Mosley-street, his attention was called to a man who had hart bimxelf severely by u. tall.

He waa taken on a stretcher to tbe In8rmiiry, but, as he could not be accstn-modated there, be was Vo nveyed to his own borne.
