LO.VDON, THCJUDAT, MARCH 17. 1847. The House of Commons was thinly attended last nignt. btvtral hours were occupied hv a technical tliscudsion on the bill introduced br Mr. Emersox Texsext, for protecting copyright in the patterns of manufactured goods; after which Lord Mauos mored the second reading of the bill for the ion of the term of copyTitht In hterarv productions lie prefaced that motion by presenting petitions in larour ot tne measure from three classes of petition ers first, from several distinguished authors secondly, from some of the most considerable pub Ushers and, thirdly, from many eminent print, era.

The second readinr of the bill wu al lowd to take place without opposition, on an understanding that the discussion of its principl should take place in the committee. Then followed the adjourned debate on Lord F. ivr.iBToss motion for leave to bring in a bill amending the marriaire law. This debat commeneed by Mr. Borthwick, who supported the motion.

He urged first, that Jioly Writ contains no prohibition of a widower's marriage with the sister nis deceased wife secondly, that the long establishedestablished objection of the Roman Catholic Church against such marriages was one of discipline, not of morality; and thirdly, that there exists no reason "of toaai exped1ency to forbid these unions. thing could hi more anomalous than the state of law produced by the last act; for while it made good all the marriage which had pre ceded it, it denounced as unholy all similar marriages for the future. A change in that law would produce much good among the lower classes, where it had been too common for a mar tfter con tractics such a marriaire. in fV consign me founding woman to dis gTace, and her children to bat.rrl Mr. Ccrteis, in support of the motion, adrart.

to a command that the brother surviving should take to wife the widow of the brother deceased. He found a canon of Christchurch omwaed ihl change, while an Archbishop of Dublin, though less decidedly, was favourable to it. In this divide state of opinion, he would vote at least for the intro duction of the U1L Mr. C. Dcixeb also advocated the motion.

If the higher classes alone were in question, he should doubt the expediency of the alteration but conai. dering the benefit of orphans in the lower and middling orders, he was prepared to support the proposal. It was the common course in humble we that the wafer of the deceased wife undertook the cart of the cottager's children, an4 became his wife herself. This would always happen In practice, whatever he the law; aad it wa better warn mould hipwn consonance with the law than to it. It would often occur, too, In Ig Ui auj then the penalty wu thrown upon th.

Innocent children. There was no general concurrence of the Christians of different countries againsi ine rtugwus Uwfulneea of these marriages it frequent since the act of 1835 as before it He believed that the salutary horror of marriage within really objectlon Ue degrees was weakened by prohibitions like that which now subisted. There wsre many rexxannjen datiosu of the marriages In qnesftkmsqualityi mu tuaj Jowwledi of character, iiad a common affec iion for a beloved and departed object Mr. GouXjce protested afalnst any aawenrption we sak duparaln(ly of the sum which would have been gained to tbe public by demanding that ttbiib ilia Muun's kindness of heart hat prompted her spontaneously to oflrr, therefore underrate the fruits of liii'liUrality. On the contrary, weeitlmals the gift, not by ltd dry value in pounds, ablUings, pesos, bat for the spirit which tu fretted It.

We value It, and so think lU donor would ThTH PP Tuesday, which have reached with It valued, as. we should any act of personal kindness to ourselves aa an act, of the heart' sacrifice made eheeTfallr and gladly for onr rather than In Its. calcalable tendency to save our pockets.

Or, If we are to estimate it by its results, value it for the example seU to those who might otherwise have been disposed to rrudrinr and discontent we value It because It showy that, even and without the rsferm cf the tariff, even pro perty tax would have been an Intolerable burden. In dUeustinjr hereafter tbe details of the proposed alterations In the tariff, we shall have occasion to point out more particularly Its nnaurrona and Important effects upon the welfare of the community, and the private Interests of all ua by our ordinary express, continue to exclu lively occupied with the financial statement and Sr Pxax on FlWay last. Those journals are unanimous la prak of the talents, the frankneea. and the maalinett dTsplaTed Irv the Right Hon. Baronet but someof them, Instead "of aomuung too obvtous tutbdeney of the propoeed schetne, labour to prove that no efforts of the Dritith Parliament, of the Britith nation, cat restore the than aa a hostile imposition to pay freely, cheer deeming the adjournment of the debate to have now fully, and even beyond what Is required of us, into put the question in the same position in which it tbe public purse, without being mad or foolish and would have stood upon a second reading intended on the present occasion to vote against that intro duction.

Mr. O'Comikll also opposed it. Among the Roman Catholic population of Ireland such marriages did not occur, lie thought the bill would make no addition to the hspiness of domettic life. Lord Ashley, who opposed the motion, cited the opinions of several French authorities against its principle, and the concurrence of Na polios in the prohibition. He disliked these discussions, unsettling the public mind upon subjects of great delicacy.

To warrant such changes, there should be shown an overwhelming necessity, and a general expression of national feelinir but he believed the national feeling to be against this bilh Mr. C. Wood, who spoke amid much impatience, supported the change. The SouciTOR GctERAL. explained what was the real object of the bill of 1833, with reference to the then state of the law and expressed his persuasion that the general sentiments had always been adverse to the marriages now in question.

The. proposed relaxation would prevent the sister from giving the desired protection to the children, by rendering it inconsistent with the feeling of society for her to inhabit the house of their father. Mr. Waelst defended the characters of surviving sisters, and of Engliah women in general. Mr.

Hardy said a few words after which Lord F. Eoertos replied. He admitted that such discussions had their disadvantages but this par rticular subject was one which, at all events, in the present feeling of the country, could not have remained unconsidered by the House. He trusted they would not give their verdict lightly, hut as jurymen on a capital trial for if It were an adverse decision, it would be the death warrant to the happiness of many who were then anxiously waiting at their bar. The House then divided and the numbers were For the bill 100 Against it 123 Majority 23 Our readers will perceive with great pleasure In the report of the proceedings In the House of Commons, the munificent offer which our Sotereiox has made through iter Prime Minister, of subjecting her own Income to the same burden which it is proposed to lay on that of her subjects.

It is truly satisfactory to have this evidence at once of her sympathy with her people, and of her readiness to forward, with her whole heart, those measures which her Ministry are'adopting for the better admistra tiori of the country and we feel sure that her act will meet a noble reward In the reception which it will find with the country. It is now long since we have had such a specimen of Royal liberality. The last, we believe, was the contribution of 20,000., made by her grandfather Geoboe to what was commonly called the Loyalty Loan. We are glad that the honest and zealous generosity of that prince is no longer to stand alone. But we ought to extract from another column the words in which Sir Rosirt Peel made this most satisfactory announcement I think.

Sir, I mr now trail mrielf of the opportunity of makinjr, a communication to the Hoots which I sta c6n riaead will ba roirad with gnat ttUtftotlon. I Urine lately had tbe hoaoar of an Interview with Her Majeaty, I felt it my daty to tttte, that owing to th diffl. ealtiet in which the eoontrj wu placed, it wtt the intention of Her kajealy'i aarranU, with a view of promoting the public interett, to propote, though is time of peace, a ttz upon income to the amount, of 3 per cent. Her Mtjeety, with that feeling of deep Uterett in the welfare of her people which tlwtyt characterises her conduct, promptly replied, taat, if ctrcnmttAnoet rendered tt Decenary to retort to inch a measure even in a time of peace, the would herself raoat willingly content that her own income thoold be mads liable to a similar deduction." But while accepting with the greatest pleasure this sacrifice on the part of our Sotereig.v, we must guard ourselves from appearing to agree with those who would bare demanded it unolfered. We have no sympathy with Lord Brougham's proposal, that this Impost, contrary to all the prece dents of this nation since precedents began to be recorded, should be extended to the Royal revenue.

We have no patience with these petty nibbling at tho Sovebeiox's privileges. We can understand those who in former days thought that the power of Royalty had increased, was increasing, and ought to be diminished, andvset themselves to work in right earnest to curtail its sources of political Influence. We can understand those who in the present day, thinking Royalty a mischievous and expensive appendage to the State machinery, and meaning to insult the Crown, as far as they can, in what they do, would propose, whenever the opportunity offered, a wholesale reduction of its income. Still more can we understand those who in a case of pressing difficulty would claim from the Sotereios (if the Soyereiox had it to give) some such overwhelming sacrifice as would be of substantial assistance, as would make itself felt, even when cast into the enormous mass of the public revenues. But we ever must think it most ungenerous and little minded to carp at a privilege of Royalty, which if retrenched, would only enrich the nation by a lewuiousands a year; and the mooting of which in this day, itUpouibleto look on tax.

othe which has marked each succeeding budget of the Cuakcellor of the ExcuEi)rn during the last six years. It is gratifying to add' that the papers before us do not confine' themselves to "eomnlunentina the fyght lion. Baronet. They are nnaatmotu In their expression of admiration of the patriotic feelinr and courage displared by the House of Commons on re ceiving from Sir Robert Peel a confirmation of finally, because every act of our SorxxEiox, or of our nobles, or of our gentry, which tends to show their readiness to forego private advantage for the national good, is of inestimable advantage in refuting those who are ever anxious to prove our political and social constitution to be a mere juggling machinery for enabling the rich and great to plunder the poor and feeble. The attention of the public baa naturally been called in the first instance to that portion of tbe financial measures of the Government which Imposes a certain and immediate burden on the pockets of the middle and higher classes of the community.

Without adverting in this article to the details of the income tax, or its probable mode of operation pn the revenue of property end the revenues of Industry, we may once more express our full conviction that some such measure is necessary to relieve the country from the known consequence of the late deplorable mismanagement of our financial that it is equally necessary to enable the Government to meet the. calls which cannot tail to arise but of the present posture of affairs in the Kast and elsewhere but that it derives a strong additional palliation from being made the means of facUitatingthe most important experiment in the reduction of the Indirect nscaLburdens of the country which has been made for half century. We have not sough to conceal the evil and inconveniences which accompany an income tax. All taxes are evil and Inconvenient, aad the income tax in seme respects more peculiarly so but it would be unjust to Inveigh against the proposal of Sir R. Peel's Government, as jf It were a fresh, unmitigated burden, when It Is notoriously and avowedly combined with those very measures of commercial relief which are believed to be most essential to the welfare of the population and the encouragement of trade.

We have been assured, over and over again, by witnesses examined before the Import Duties Committee, and by their hundred echoes, that what the people of England have to complain of, is not the amount of revenue which goes from their pockets to the coffers of the State, but the Indirect effect of high or prohibitory duties, which make commodities dear without benefiting the public revenue. This is the great burden from which the people are to ne relieved to a considerable extent. The changes now propoeed In the commercial tariff are assuredly not all that can be asked or do sired. A very large number of nominal duties have been retained on small miscellaneous articles which produce little or no revenue, and might as well have been expunged altogether, except for statistical purposes. Some articles of more importance, such as wine, spirits, and silk, butter, cheese, and eggs, have been reserved for discussion in the commercial treaties pending with foreign countries; whilst others of first rate importance, si sugar, tea, and tobacco, are to remain consequence of the peculiar state of the Interests they affect at this moment.

and of the danger of tampering with the sources of such large revenues at a time of financial difficultYi We apprehend that the chief argument in favour of a property tax is, tht it will enable the Government to engage in the discussions of these questions hereafter, without abandoning the public income to the uncertainties and difficulties which attend such re forms as these. Sir Robert Peel's argument that is me neignt of folly, and contrary to all experience, to regard a reduction of duties as a certain and Immediate cause of increase to the revenue, was perfectly demonstrative. All that can be said Is, that In the case of articles of primary necessity, a Minister may reasonably hope that the Increase of consumption will gradually Dnng back the former revenue, or possibly ultl mately Increase it but In the case of those articles which were prohibited or excluded before, the revenue arising from their admission, is of course so much direct and certain gain. Nothing can be more Invidious and absurd than to overlook or deny the great public benefits arising from the measures now before Parliament, simply because they do not accomplish every thing at once. they unquestionably evince a strong desire on the part of the present Administration to advance boldly, though carefully, In that course which was begun by Tory Governments of 1824 and 1827, and has only been suspended by the Whig Admi nistrations of the last eleven years.

They acknowledge the great principles on which the commercial legislation of this country ought to rest. They begin by removing a mass of useless duties and heavy prohibitions; and in the Important articles ot timber, coffee, meat, oil, the metals, stone hidee, they introduce great facilities of trade with the possessions of the British Crown, and aa easy rate of duty on the produce of foreign countries. On the scheme which the late Government pro teased to adopt in the distraction of iU last moments, commercial reform was to come in the most violent and sudden shape, beginning with the commo dities which were most likely to complete the embarrassment of the exhausted Exchequer and the ruin of the colonies.

Peel's having come forward to share in the dim cul ties of the nation. As between man and man, so still more between subject aad Sovereign, such sidelong re proaches, or evea anything that looks like them, are only justified by being Imperatively called far by strong truth or pressing necessity by a grasping niggardliness on the part of those aimed at or by an overruling necessity which compels the Parliament to disregard ail ordinary delicacies in order to free itself, in the only way it can, from an overwhelming exigency. No thing of this kind can be pretended. The Qoxxx has never shown herself either indifferent to the welfare, or greedy of th money, of her. subjects.

Our drcijmstancea, though embsxraesing, are ia no way desperate and If they were, four or five thousand a year appropriated from the Royal allowance would not go far to mead them; aad we should therefore deprecate any such oblique censure as that of Lord Bmcoham as equally unhandsome and un naceeeary. It must be supposed, bowtrar, that Ucaajt measures are in all these respects exactly the reverse of the crude proposals of last year. He begins by the removal of prohibitions, by a general relaxation of the whole tariff, aad more especially by putting the various products of the British possessions abroad under so favourable a scale of duties, that the colonies may be the better enabled to support hereafter the diminution of protection on their staple articles. By the abolition of the duties oa colonial timber Canada is placed, coinmercially speaking, on the footing of an Integral portion of th United Kingdom; and the tendency of all the differential duties favour of colonial produce Is to commence the removal of restrictions, by wdadn those which existed betweea th various portions of uu auiusa empire. These general considerations deserve to ba borne ia mind la th course of the Important debate which is about to.

Being so very distantly related to the late Duke, deriving from Li father only a very moderate fortune, and being dutinguished by no eminent or shining talents, ne was but little known tUl ha ne. ceeded to the honours of the premier dukedom of England, and to one of the finest estates, rr ruths accumulation, of estates, of which the Engliah aristocracy can boast. When he acquired the dukedom, he received at the same time possession of Worksop Manor, in hottinghamshtre of Arundel Castle, and the annexed estate, la Sussex of Farr ham Genevieve, ia Suffolk of araharn. Park, ia the) same con my oi iieniotd, Surrey and of an estate in the Isle of Wight, beside GIocsop, la Derby siiur.

wuicu ne inueruea irom nis lather. Worksop Manor he disposed of a few Years ago to the) liuksoi out inouga us alienated thia property, his doing so was no result of Imnrevidencar? on the contrary, he was remarkable through life for a very prudent management of his pecuniary concerns, though in general free from the narrow economy which, ia a great aad wealthy aoble, would, of. course, have beea uniecomiag aad discrsditabuu is is no mom wan just towards tne deceased peer to state, that on many occasions he indufoud a munificent spirit that his amiable character and unaftected deportment secured the sincere attachment of many friends. Oa the whole, may be said to have sustained with dignity aid with honour the highest hertditarv disfinetMsu fnart after those belonging to Royalty) which exists ia England. The greater portion of the public are probably aware that the head of all the Howards' waa educated ia the Roman Catholic faith, thai ha professed it through life, aad no doubt died a member of the Church of Rome.

When inconvenience of Various kinds, aad exclusion from office, and evem penal statutes were in force erainetnhose who would not belong to the EsUbliahed Church, the Duke of Norfolk never wavered. He adhered firmly though, as we think, erroneously to th creed in wnica ne was educated and though, perhaps, never very formidable to his opponents, it must not ba forgotten that he never deserted or discountenaaeed hi friends. Ua waa always ready with voice aad purse and influence to aid the Interests of his' party aad his religion. He gave them assistance in their difficulties, aad by his fellowship dignified their prosperity. It will be remembered that he generally presided over the meetings of the "English Catholks Board," and was of course looked up to as tha leader and chief of that party la this country, until by the act of 1829 the jrnevances which united thesj were As we have already stated, the deceased Peer was the premier Duke of Ensiand.

was liVawia Pal of Arundel, of Surrey, aad of Norfolk, and BarcaC I ntxalan, Clun, Oswaldeetre, aad Maltravers, all ia Vl the peerage of England but so Scottish or Irish 1 peerage devolved on him. lie was also hereditary Earl Marshal, a Knight of the most noble Order of thfrGarter, one of Her' Majeety'a most honourabla Priry Council, a Fellow of the Royal Society, lie possessed the patronage of 24 livings, which of course descends to nis heirs. The late Duke is succeeded ra all his honours by his only son, Henry Charles, Earl of Surrey, who is la his 51st year (having been bora oa the 12th of August, 1731), aad has now become the 13th Duke oorfoUc Oaths 27th of December, 181 4, he married Lady Charlotte the eldest daughter of the 1st Duke of Sutherland, who is now Duchess of Norfolk, and by whom he his five 'childrtn. Her Grace was born 17881 Froml829 to the year 1832 he represented Horsham ia Parliament, but in tho latter year he was returned for the western division of Sussex, and he continued to represent that county till the dissolution in June, 184L, which led to the formation of the Conservative Mmistry. At that election the Earl of Surrey did not consider it advisable to offer himself as a candidate, and, as is well known, two Conservative members were returned, while his Lordship was summoned to the House of Peers in one of his father's titles, viz, the barony of Maltravers, in accordance with the date of which (1627) he took precedence that assembly.

In 1837 the Earl of Surrey, now Duke of Norfolk, was added to the Privy Council, and made Treasurer of the Royal Household, an appointment in which he was succeeded by Lord II. Hill in June. 1841 ia that month he was made Captain ot tbe Yeomen of the. Guard, which he of course resigned ia September, 1 841. Betides succeeding to all the titular distinctions of his father, his Grace also becomes Earl Marshal, aa office of aa hereditary character which has been enjoyed by the Norfolk family for many centuries.

The present Duke's eldest son has hitherto borne the courtesy title of Lord Firzalan, but he now becomes Earl of Surrey: he was bora on the 7th of November, 1815, and married on the 19th of 1839, Augusta Mary Mina Catherine, the daughter of Sir Edmund Lyons, Bart, our Minister at Athens. He was for a short tins aa officer ia the Guards, and has represented A ran el in Parliament since the general election ia 1837; for this borough no vacancy is of court created, because the earldom of Surrey is only a courtesy title, and no more confers a seat in the House of Lords than the barony of Fitzalan. The present Duke's other issue are the Hon, (now Lord Edward George, born the 20th of January, 1818; the Hob. (now Lord) Bernard Thomas, born December 30, 1825 Lady Mary Charlotte, born December 13, 1822 and Lady A'deliza Matilda, born August 14,1829. The present Earl of Surrey (previously Lord Fitzalan) has issue a sob, who succeeds to tne courtesy title, which his Lather drops on becoming Earl of Surrey.

The relationship which subsisted between the peer who has just paid the debt of nature and his predecessor in the title was rather more distant than usuaBy occurs in the direct line of hereditary descent. The Duke just deceased was the representative of the eighth son of their common sncestor, while his predecessor waa decended from the fourth son, the three intervening vina havtn? died unmar ried. The Dukedom of Norfolk, which dates as far back as 1483, was conferred on Sr John Howard, aa eminent supporter of the House of York, and he was the first of this family to whom was granted the hereditary office of Earl Marshal of England. As is well known, he fell at Bosworth field his honours were attainted by Parliament in 1485, aad his only son, wKo had been created Earl of Surrey, suffered the same punishnunt. The latter, however, was restored in 1489 the earldom of Surrey while the dukedom of Norfolk, was recreated in his favour this was the noble who achieved tbe victory of Flodden, ia 1513.

successor, the 3d duke, also suffered under a temporary attainder, but it was the Litter's eldest son who was the Earl of Surrey executed by Henry I Ia the person of the 4th Duke the honours were again attainted, la consequence of that peer's communication with Mary Queen of Scot, and all his titles became forfeited when he was beheaded ia 1572. His eldest "son Philip, however, inherited through his mother the feudal earldom of Arundel, which waa annexed to the possession of Aruad castle, ia Sussex; but he again was attainted ia and died a prisoner ia tne Tower, ia liftS During the reign of Elizabeth, Thomas, the eldest son of the befonmeatioaed Earl of Arundel, eajeyei th title of Lord Maltravers merely by courtesy, but the first year of Jame reign, he was restored if act of Parliament to bis father's earldom, and to sS the baronial honours which wer lost by the attna dsr Thomas Duk of Norfolk, (tha son of 1.
