30. In Re John Smith, The insolvent, who has been upwards of three years in Mon-nmnth Anl. hail ohtained a rule, calling upon Mr. Charles Walker, his detaining and only creditor, to show cause why he should not have leave to file a petition, without lodging a certain book of accounts. Mr.

Cook showed cause. The rule was made through the chief clerk. It appeared that the insolvent had been clerk to Mr. Walker, who had discharged him for mis conduct: he had afterwards taken from his office an account book belonging to Mr. Walker, on which he (the clerk) hod been vmnlnvpd.

Mr. Walker had taken him before the mayor and other magistrates at Monmouth, and charged him with felony in taking the book the insolvent bad sel up in defence a lien on the oooK ror ins services, anu ine magistrates naa uismisseu tc. The lien was denied by Mr. Walker. Mr.

Walker subsequently brought an action of trover to recover the book, it being of value to him. and the insolvent was taken in execution, but was ottered his liberty and some monev if he would restore the book this he refused to do. unless his own terms were complied with. He remained two years in custody, when he applied to petition this court. Mr.

Walker resisted the application, on the ground that he had possession of the book, of knew where it was, and the rnnrt crrnnted leave on the book being forthcoming. The msol- xfiinf nnui nnnl ipil. and in bis affidavit declared that in June, 1833, he concealed the book under a tree in a field near Newport, andif it had not been restored to Mr. Walker, it had no douot pensned. Mr.

Walker, in his affidavit, detailed several acts of misconducton the part of the insolvent, and expressed his belief that he was still in nnespxsinn nf the honk. The court said thev could not believe the afiidavit of the insolvent. He either had the book, or knew where it was; theysbould refuse the application. Rule discharged. Monmouthshire Boroughs.

Reginald J. Blewitt, the Candidate Id the Liberal interest for the representation of the Monmouthshire Boroughs, has commenced an active canvass, with the hearty co-operation of the Reformers. On Thnrsdav and Friday last, he was engaged in personal calls on the electors of Newport, accompanied by Philip Jones, Esq. and many of the influential gentlemen who rake a nrnminent oart in the political proceedings of the town. Those who have had the best opportunity of knowing the facts, declare that the canvass, so tar, has been in a hrh degree nromismg and even some tacticians in clpntinneerino- men who.

we are persuaded, would not create hope, to vanish in the conflict assure us that the success of Mr Blevvitt's company tnrougu tne town, ex-thing of the kind thev ever experienced. The npnnle ran do all. and thev know their Dower; from them rmir-h is ftxnscted. and much will thev achieve: the sacretl- ness of a cause identified with the redress of public wrongs. and the protection of public interests, is an irresistible passport to the favour of Englishmen, when upheld by one ivhncp merits as a man.

New Beer Retail Trade. From a circular issued by the Metropolitan Society, we find that arrangements have been made for bringing before the legislature a bill to amend the existing laws for regulating the sale of beer by retail. This bill has the following bbjects in view 1. To fix the hours for closing beer-houses permanently at eleven ciock, in all towns and parishes having a population of not less than 5,000 persons. 2.

To fix tbe hours permanently at ten o'clock in all towns and parishes having less than 5,000, but more than 2,000 inhabitants. 3. In case of death, the license of deceased beer-seller to be available to the widow, executor, or administrator. 4. Magistrates to be empowered to mis-itate Denalties to such lesser sums as shall in their opinion be more consonant with the nature or degree of the onence.

5. ueer-aeJiers to oe empowered to. can in the assistance of the police, or other constable, to remove a disorder character, or to clear the nouse.it necessarv 6. Informations to state particulars and time of alleged offences; to be in writing, and to be laid within fourteen days. If dismissed, the magistrates to be empowered to award costs.

7. Power of appeal extended. The above bill has been drawn up and submitted to those whose opinion in favour of the reasonable claims of the beer-sellers will give them a probability of ultimate success. Petitions in its support are in course of signature. An intelligent youth once inquired of an old woman vending oranges on the Ouav.

The "kele" here mentioned is the well-known kale of the cabbage tribe. But the Saxons likewise called this month Solmonath," which Dr. Frank Tagus, in his Disqui sitions, says is explained by JJede, mensts plancentarum, and rendered by Spelman, in an unedited manuscript, pan- calte month," because, in the course of it, cakes were offered bv the Pagon Saxons to the sun and Sol," or soul." signified food," or cakes." A Pie-man in Trouble.

A young man who travels from Brough over with a pie-man at a certain town, on the east side of that hilly country, and agreed to give him two shillings for as many pies as he could eat.

The magistrates hoped the cold bath he had taken was a sufficient punishment, and discharged him. Nancy Brittan was charged with being drunk. Nancy said she had had a touch of this bad complaint, which the policeman mistook. She was afraid, as long as she could walk, they would say she was tipsy.

Admonished and discharged. Mr. Chandler, of Montpelier complained that the proprietor of a ceer-nouse, in sussex-place, harboured his son. at very improper hours, and when he requested policeman 81 to go in at 11 o'clock and clear the house, he refused to' do so unless he (applicant) gave his son in charge, rlis son had since bragged that he had oeen drinking with 61, who said he was afraid he should have lost his place for it, but he had only had a rap over the knuckles. In re ply to a question by the Mayor, Inspector Gardner said a police man instructions were, never to enter a puonc-nouse unaccompanied by his sergeant without it was to preserve the peace.

The Mayor and Mr, Newman thought it was a wise restriction that he should not be allowed to enter voluntarily, but when called upon to do so by a citizen it was his duty to obey. Mr. Stock thought it was an unwise restriction there might be danger one side, but he could see much greater danger on the other. The applicant's complaint should be attended to. Mrs.

Jane Hall was charged with suffering her trucks to obstruct the carriage way. Mr. Sayer saw it in Castle-street; it was there a quarter of an hour by his watch. Defendant's son-in-law would positively swear it was not there more than three minutes he called a youth, who deposed that he unloaded the trucks; it was not there more than five minutes he wheeled it away as soon as he had put the boxes off it into the warehouse. The Mayor said defendant's own witness had proved the case against her, and fined her 10s.

The policeman stated that he was on duty last night in Temple-stre'eti 'and about 8 o'clock he 3w the prisoner going towards Church Lane with a sack upon his shoulder; he asked him what he had there, but the prisoner refused to tell him; he followed him, and upon insisting to see its contents, both the prisoner and his wife assaulted him, and the prisoner struck him several times. There were account-books' in tbe bags.

Parry gave notice that on the 18th of April Iie-thould call the attention of the house to the espediency of instituting a for the education of the Door in orincinalitv of Wales, with a view to cement the union and assimilate the habits of the two countries. ABJQURUED The order of the day for resuming the adjourned debate on the municipal corporations (Ireland) having been read, Mr. D. Browne said, the question to be decided was, whether the Irish were be considered on rooting wiw subjects, or to be regarded as an inferior-race to Englishmen, and 1,0 treated with He had heard himself called an alien. He had been told that he was-unfit for free muni cipal until reparation had beenTnaae, consider himself under a -stigma.

Let that party inis house and tn neolect the si ens of times, recall to their recollection the days of Charles I. In thusedaya presentatives of the people that the House of Lords was a mere tn Mitrinn that if thev obstinately refused to cractirin necessary measures, that house would themselves tafce up those measures to the throne, anddispensewithiheconcurrence of the Lords. Such a resolution had then passed, and such areso-lution might pass again. Mr. Hardy said that there had been nothing 'hanf opinions which he had expressed last year on "to thing that had occurred in Ireland since that tunc tended to straiten those opinions.

He did not think that the people 01 Ireland were fit to'receive WwcXStSttW porations. He did not think they hould obt in rport terror Sntil thev learned to conduct themselves bke the people of Lngland and Scotland (hear). Mr Gn vttav said that they must either grant corporate Mr. U. r.peaied the acts of union and emanci-vAicMSSlW-Jiac-BOM.

If they abrogated altogether, theywould place Ireland a worse Son than it was in since its-connection with England. Hede-cS himself a member of theassociation, and he asked gentlemen ooDosite, would they assert that he as a traitor to his country and Thev should not assert that in their packed private meetings which they were afraid to utter their places in that house. He would nuver consent to hear his countrymen stigmatised as aliens in blood, aliens in language, and aliens in rpiioinn ('hear). Mr. W.

Hoche, Mr. Lucas Mr. Lefroy, Mr. Waktey, and Mr. West severally addressed me nouss.

Alter wuicn, Lord Morpeth rose, and. in a speech which occupiedtwo hours, No rfrtVPrmTIPnt of Ireland from every charge that had been previousFy advanced by the hon. members on the other side of the house, inespeecn tliat it is impossible to give any analysis of it. His lordship concluded as follows the general principles on which the nf Trplaml oucht to be conducted, it was not his wnuld be out of his place, to enter suffice it to say, all connected with the local governmentof that country had carried it on with union and harmony of feeling, and had enjoyed the countenance of the central government home. With respect to himself, individually, he (Lord Morpeth) had reason to believe that his constituents, not the least numerous, tne leastmausiriotis, nor the least protestant in the empire, did not withhold their con-iidence from him.

His impression became stronger day by day, that to carrv on the Irish government on a system of oppression and alienation, of keeping down the catholic laity and keeping the catholic clergy aloof (he did not mean from emolument, but from the assistance of their kindliness, co-operation, and good will), or on any other system than one of conciliation and impartial justice, would be attended with enormous risk, and that whatever prejudices might exist in England, her people would show but little alacrity to furnish the necessary blood and treasure for the experiment. It was the department of that house primarily to say whether the n.iiipir if lhn executive should be followed up and ratified by legis lative enactments. If hon. members would change the favour lipsimved on any individual into the deep-rooted attachment rlowinj from the enjoymentof equal laws and a common constitution, they could not take a more effective step than by voting for the motiou (if his noble frieud. The noble lord sat down amidst loud and deafening cheers.

Sir James Geaham followed, in a speech chiefly occupied with iitn-siinal imnulations udoii Ins JYJaiestv ministers. ine lion. baronet announced the intention of his party to oppose the mea sure: As to the corporations of Ireland, sir, I am prepared to take my stand, not against the total abolition of the exclusively protestant corporations as they now exist, and their abuses, but against the measure proposed ny tne nooie ioiq opposite, wmuii, 1 hold, would be a direct transfer of the power from the minority to the overwhelming majority. Sir John Hobhouse, after rebutting the imputations cast upon himself and his colleagues, said the question at isue was, how is Ireland to be governed That is the test. I have not heard what is the course that the right hon.

gentleman and his colleagues mean to pursue on this occasion. They say they do not mean to oppose, as far as 1 can understand, tne second reading 01 uinwiu Am I to understand that they mean to take the same cr urse that they did last session Am I to understand that they mesa to annihilate the protestant corporations in Ireland, and saythi.t there are to be no corporations at all, for fear the catholics shculd be ad-niited into them Now this is the question and nothin but this. My noble friend, the secretary for the home department, has stated that the government intend to pass this bill. They intend attempt passing this bill. And when my noble friend says that, I certainly, as one of the government, stand herein confirmation of thn statement, aud take its responsibility upon me.

And 1 now isk the right hon. gentlemen opposite, if we do not pass th.s bill, do they intend to govern Ireland on the other principle Does the right hon. gentleman, supposing the happy day should arrive in which we should be relieved of our thankless servitude here does he intend to govern Ireland with Orange handkerchiefs and the Kentish fire" and this, too, with the assistance of a very respectable nobleman acting as fugleman? Does the right hon. gentleman mean to do this? I think that the King's government, aud the country too, will consider they have a right to ask the question, and to have a decided answer to it. I am here, not to enforce an answer to my question from the right hon.

gentlemen opposite, but I think the country will put such a question, and they will expect an answer to it. The answer they will have to give must be, whether or not they mean to give a corporation bill to Ireland whether you do intend to legislate for Ireland as you legislate for England and Scotland whetheryou, distinguished gentlemen, and powerful party opposite, mean to govern Ireland on opposite principles? There is no medium in the two courses. The Irish people, I tell you, will reject your no-corporation principle. The question to be decided to-night is this shall this country be governed by a majority of the House of 'Lords against a majority of the House of Commons, or shali it be governed by a majority of the. House of Commons against a majority of the House of Lords (cheers)? Does the right hon.

gentleman mean to govern by a majority of the Houss of Lord against a majority of the House of Commons I quote his own w'ords. That right! hon. baronet did say that it was to a majority of this house he intended to appeal. It is to that majority 1 appeal, to a parliament collected by himself and under his own auspices collected, I will not say, under what pretences, for I do not wish to lower any one in his own estimation and that of others. But the parliament I appeal to is, in the common acceptation, his own, and from that parliament it would be hardly fair, and I trust that if tried it would not be safe, for him to appeal.

Our majority upon this question is 86. Are we to be controlled by a majority of the other houseof parliament? I say no decidedly no aud unless the right hon. gentleman is prepared to accept the government on the terms of carrying it on by a majority of the House of Lords controlling the majority of the Houseof Commons, controlling, too, that which is a popular question, one of municipal rights, and a question with which the House of Commons must be considered far more conversant than the other house: unless he is prepared to accept the government on such terms, 1 say that his opposition to this measure is not wise, and is not consistent with his usual prudence and I trust, as experience on so many other occasions has proved, be will be shown to be also wrong on this (loud cheers). Sir Robert Peel rose, and began by complaining that Lord J. Russell had not entered into the church question, and the poor-law question, in his view of the condition of Ireland, and of the principles upon which it must be governed.

The right hon. baronet proceeded to contend that the same principles of legislation would not apply to Great Britain and Ireland. He then complained of the conduct of the Irish government in not putting down the National Association reprobated the indiscriminate clemency" of the lord lieutenant of Ireland, in discharging so many prisoners and said the onlv precedent for such a proceeding waste be found in the farce of "Tom Thumb." He then said, I must express iny continued doubts as to the policy and justice of destroying those corporations which have hitherto existed as protestant and exclusive, and at the same time erecting other corporations which are braticslly open to some defects and exposed to the same objections. The noble lord says that the object of the act of union and the object of the Roman catholic relief bill was to establish identity in the institutions of the two countries. I say that the object of those measures was to establish the equality of civil rights.

Will any man say tbat an inhabitant of Manchester is placed on a different footing as to his civil privileges from an inhabitant of London? Is it possible to contend for this? Andyet there is no municioal corporation existing in Manchester. It is contended that this is a question of self-government. I contend it is nosuch thing. It isa question which merely relates to institutions where we find them. You laid d-own that the best principle of self-government is implied in a municipal corporation, and that it cannot exist witnotlc it.

nay aia you not say so 10 -cugusu bill and why do you not establish corporations in Birmingham and Manchester You take the power and you do not exercise it. Can you contend that the civil rights of the persons inhabiting those towns stand on a different footing from the civil rights of the inhabitants of London? At the same time lam bound to admit that there is a case in favour of the continuance of municipal institutions in Ireland, on account of the antiquity of those institu tions. I think there is also this in favour of it, because similar institutions exist in England and Scotland but I look at the question in this light. Can the establishment of these municipal institutions endantrer that civil eauality the equality of political rights? if we do endanger the free expression of opinion, it is a question whether we ougire not to irom tne identity and analogy between the institutions of the two countries. This is my argument.

Lord John Russell, in reply, defended the course he had adonted. The right hon. gentleman had abused him because he had not already brought forward the question of the church of Ireland. He could only say inaiinswisn ana intention was, as far as lay in his power, to maintain the church of Ireland; but at the same time he must say to the right hon. gentleman, and to the friends who acted witn mm, inattoey were the persons who had put the church of Ireland into danger (loud cries of riis nrm Denet was, mat ii uie imi or tne year oerore last nad been accepted, they would have'obtained, on the cheapest possibleterms, a.

measure of defence for the church of Ireland, better than thev had any reason now to expect. Having once, in the passing of mat measure, ooiameu a very jurge majority oi pledged to maintain the church of Ireland upon the footing established by it, that in itself would have been a very strong guarantee for the security of the church. At present ail he could say was, that he viewed with great pain the present deplorable condition of the church of Ireland, and of those who depended upon the revenues of that church for their support. It should be his (Lord J. earnest study to devise some measure by which parliament might oe aiue to cuuie iu suine arrangement on mesuojcci ill tne course of the present session there were many events passingin Ireland, and many points connected with the subject, which rendered him willing to wake considerable sacrifices in arriving at this desirable ooject.

jDut, at tne same time, ne could notify luanney nauany right to expect to see great readiness to accept such terms on the subject as in the year before last were sought for with anxiety by parties in that house. The fact was, that the church of Ireland stood in a very anomalous and peculiar position with regard to the people of that country. He recollected the other day reading the charge of the Bishop of Exeter to the clergy of his diocese, in which was pointed out of how much use the church of England nils 111 till; wuai tciaiiviu, nnu ju ivuuiuuuug ill uje Spiritual wants and the education of the poor, and that the poor were those who especially benefited by the church establishment. That was a true description, and one to which he was willing to subscribe, as far as regarded the church of England: but no man could sav in his heart that the same observation would apply to the churchof Jrelana. inese reflections rendered it ttieretore not merely a matter of debate whether the church of Ireland should be maintained or not, but how that institution could be maintained under circumstances so difficult and anomaious(hear, hear).

He did not wish to bring forward a bill on the church or on the subject ot tithes, without a reasonable hope that they would pass through parliament, not only that, -outlive satisfaction to the people ot lreiana. ana mis was a task so diflerent from all that had taken place in former years, that he did not feel inclined to bring them forward early in the session he would rather postpone the subject to a later period. Whenever they might be brought forward, however, the house mieht deoend that injf of hi own no false pride should stand in tb way either of wt wi.k, jutriiun tue nuuie iora sat oown amidst general t-hwJ, The noble lord then brought up the bill, which waj rtaa tint iiie, and fixed, for the second reading on (as we und-rfeJ) J'fid Wimigbt Adjourned at half-past two.
