I SABBATH SONNET. Composed by Mrs. flemans, a far day. before her death, and dedicated to her Brother. How many blessed groups this houT are bending Through England's primrose meadow paths their way Toward spire and tower, midst shadowy elms ascending, Whence the sweet chimes proclaim the hallowed day. The hails, from old heroic ages grey, Pour their fair children forth and hamlets low, With whose thick orchard blooms the soit winds pby, ?end out their inmates in a happy flow, I,ike a freed vernal stream. I may not tread With them those pathways-to the feverish bed Of sickness bonnet-yet oh, my GoD I I bless Thy mercy, that with Sabbuth peace hath filled My chastened heart, and all its throbbings stilled To one deep calm of liveliest thairkfulness.

STANZAS ON THE DEATH OF MRS. HEMANS. I The rose,—the glorious rose is ,one.Lays of Many Lands. "Bring flowers to crown the cup and Itite-- Bring ftowers,-the bride Is ne:tr Bring flowers to soothe the captive's Cell, Bring floivers to stiew the bier Bring flowers thus said the lovely song; And shall they not be brought To her who linked the offering With feeling and with thought' Thy song around our daily path Flung beauty, born of dreams. That shadows on the actual world The spirit's sunny gleams. Mysterious influence, that to earth Brings down the heaven above, Aod fills the universal heart With universal love. Such gifts were tliiine,-as from the block. The unformed and the cold, The sculpture calls to breathing life Some shape of perfect mould; So thou from common thoughts and things Didst call a charmed song, Which on a sweet and swelling tide Bore the full soul along And, yet, thy song is sorrowful, Its beauty is not bloom The hopes of which it breathes, are hopes That look beyond the tomb. Thy song is sorrowful, as winds That wander o'er the plain, And ask for Summer's vanished flowers, And ask for them in vain. Ah dearly purchased is the gift, The gift of song like thine; A fated doom is her's who stands The Priestess of the shrine. The crowd,-they only see the crown, They only hear the hymn ;— They mark not that the cheek is pale. And that the eye is dim. How many loved and honoured thee, Who only knew thy name Which, o'er the weary working world, Like starry music came! With what still hours of calm delight Thy songs and image blend i cannot choose but think thou wert An old familiar friend. Oh, weary One since thou art laid Within thy mother's breast,— The green, the quiet mother earth,— Thrice blessed be thy rest! Thy heart is left within our hearts. Although life's pang is o'er; But the quick tears are in my eyes, And I can write uo more. L. E. L. I

HOUSE OF LORDS, July 16. I DENS' THEOLOGY. I The Bishop of EXETER defended himself from the imputations cast upon him in the charge of having en- deavoured to injure the character of Dr. Murray, Roman Catholic Archbishop of Dublin, in moving for the pro- duction of the letter addressed by that individual to the Noble Viscount below him (Lord Melbourne). The Right Rev. Prelate proceeded to read extracts from the letter of Dr. Murray, and contended that he was not a fit person to hold office as a Commissioner of Education (hear, hear !) under his Majesty's Government. He held in his hand the work to which so much allusion had been made (" Dens' Theology"), and which appeared to come forth under the sanction and authority of Dr. Murray, and in his (the Bishop of Exeter's) opinion, it contained matter not fit for the ears of the Protestants of that kingdom (hear!). The Right Rev. Prelate then alluded to the conversion of the Rev. Mr. Nolan from the errors of the Church of Rome in February last, on which occasion he had stated that he had left a rich and pampered church. In a letter addressed to a Roman Ca- tholic Clergyman, the Rev. Mr. Nolan asserted that Dens' Theology" was a regular text book at Maynooth College. The Right Rev. Prelate then read extracts from a Roman Catholic Catechism and other works, and con- tended that the doctrines, as promulgated in them, and as set forth by the testimony of the clergy of that Church, were unchristian and monstrous, inasmuch as in the con- fessional they assumed the attributes of the Deity. Ire- land was distinguished above all Roman Catholic coun- tries on the Continent for its adherence to doctrines which were long since obsolete.-He need only refer in proof of this to the office still inserted in the Irish Roman Catholic Breviary, in honour of Hildebrand, by whom the Emperor Francis IV. was deposed, and his subjects absolved from their allegiance. This Pope Hidebrand was a complete firebrand, and the most charitable thing that could be said of him was, that he was a religious maniac. The office in honour of him, although expunged by order of all the Continental Roman Catholic countries from their books of prayer, was still continued and offered up by the Irish Priests (hear!). There were many instances of this sort, to which he would have no diffi- culty in referring. [Some manifestttions of impatience were here observable among their Lordships]. These matters might appear tiresome or ridiculous to some of their Lordships, but they were of serious import to him (the Bishop of Exeter). With respect to the right of Temporal States to compel their subjects to adopt what- ever religious opinions they pleased, as alluded to by Dr. Murray in his letter, he regretted to be obliged to say that Dr. Murray had stated what he knew to be false. The assertion of his (the Bishop of Exeter) was con- firmed by the statement in Dens's work, to which lie had previously referred. He believed he had now said enough to convict this public functionary, of putting forth, if not of holding, opinions which rendered him very unfit to hold the office of Commissioner of National Instruction. He felt that he was justified in making the charge, and that a primafacie case bad been made out against him. If it was found that he (the Bishop of Exeter) was wrong, he would come forward much more cheerfully to retract these charges than he had made them. The Right Rev. Prelate then presented a Petition from a clergyman who had formerly resided in Ireland, but had been obliged to fly to England in consequence of the persecutions to which he had been exposed. He begged to say, with respect to a petition which he had formerly presented from the Rev. Mr. Nangle, of Achil, that the persecution to which the children who attended the Rev. Gentleman's schools had been exposed, had entirely ceased. Lord MELBOURNE thought a discussion on this sub- ject could only lead to excitement. There was a story which he had read, and which would illustrate his re- marks better than any argument he could use. An in- dividual (a Bishop) had been taken prisoner in battle by a temporal "Sovereign this Potentate was applied to by the Pope, as the spiritual father of the prisoner, for his release. The temporal King stripped the prisoner of his coat of mail, in which he had been taken fighting, and sent it to the Pope with this inquiry, Is this thy son's coat ?" So, on the present occasion, he would ask, was the speech of the Right Rev. Prelate the speech of a Bishop of the religion of peace ? was its tone the tone of temperate, calm, and dispassionate debate ? With re- spect to Dr. Murray, he (Viscount Melbourne) had no hesitation in saying that he had heard of nothing which rendered that individual unfit to be a Commissioner of National Education. We ought now to forget ancient feuds. No doubt it had been said that Catholics incul- cated doctrines for exterminating heretics but it ought to be remembered, so also were such doctrines to be as fairly attributed to Protestants in past times. James the First confiscated the property of the Catholics of Ulster, and put them to the sword and the Marquis of Stafford would have done the same, as regarded the people of Connaught, had he not been called to England by trou- bles at home. He (Viscount Melbourne) would then place those passages of history in opposition to all that was to be found in the book of Peter Dens, Professor of Theology in the University of Louvain. The Archbishop of CANTERBURY could not charge his memory with any thing having been said by his Right Rev. Friend (the Bishop of Exeter) deserving the severe comments which had been made upon him by the Noble Viscount. The Earl of LIMERICK deprecated the tenor of the speech which had been delivered by the Noble Viscount at the head of his Majesty's Government. The Duke of WELLINGTON complained that the Protestants of both countries, England as well as Ireland, were not sufficiently protected by the Government. Viscount DUNCAN NON inquired of the Noble Duke what particular protection lie shed around the Protestants four or five years ago. when he was in office ? A short discussion ensued, in which the tithe question was alluded to but the Marquis of LANSDOWNE spoke of the irregularity of such discussion, and the sub- ject dropped.—Adjourned. FRIDAY, JULY 17. ACCOMMODATION FOR LADIES DURING DEBATES. Lord BROUG HAM said he perceive I from the votes .vf the Other House that the subject of accommodation for the ladies during debates had been discussed. Now, although he would yield to no one, not even to the Noble Baron (Lord Wharncliffe) in an absolute and entire de- votion to that sex, yet he must confess he did not approve of their being present at a place where he thought they would be much better away, and, therefore, if no one else did, he should object to any part of the new House of Lords being set apart expressly for them. Lord WHARNCLIFFE (who had smiled during the few observations which the Noble and Learned Lord had made, and which appeared to have called forth the remark above given) assured the Noble and Learned Lord that he entirely concurred with him in what he had stated (hear!) I The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said that the report of the Committee on the subject of the new House of Lords showed that several places were to be included in the Houses which would afford accommodation for ladies but the name of ladies" was not inserted in the report, and, as far as he was concerned, it never should (hear \) —Adjourned.
HOUSE OF COMMONS, July 16.
HOUSE OF COMMONS, July 16. In a discussion on the Weights and Measures Bill, Mr R. GRESLEY proposed that all weights should be made of gold, silver, iron, brass, or copper, which amendment being put and negatived, Mr. ESTCOURT moved that the whole clause he omitted, which was negatived, the numbers being 30 to 50. Lord JOHN RUSSELL proposed the following nine Members (five to be a quorum) to be the Committee to consider the Petition relative to the Yarmouth and York election, viz., Mr. Fazakerley, Lord F. Egerton, Mr. Mark Phillips, Sir Y. Buller, Mr. Elphinstone, Mr. Nicholls, Mr. Tancred, Mr. J. Young (of Cavan,) and Mr. Hardy. Lord John said that, to ensure attendance, in the event of any Member being absent for two successive days, his name should be reported to the House with a view to his being discharged. MUNICIPAL REFORM BILL. Lord J. RUSSELL stated that until within the lasttwo hours he was not aware that he could not proceed, as he proposed, with this Bill. He found that it would he ne- cessary that the Speaker should successively put from the Chair the various Amendments in the Clauses, veibal and substantial, which had been made in the different commit- tees. Now, great difficulty and confusion must attend this proceeding, and he felt, accordingly, that he had only one of two courses to follow. One was to propose that all the motions of which notice had been given for the bring- ing up of the Report should be taken on the re-committal of the Bill. When the Bill was re-committed they might go straight through it, and Honourable Members might then propose their Amendments as the Clauses to which they referred came forward. The other course which might be taken would be more convenient to him, but he would not venture to propose it unless he were sure it would be favourably received by the House, it was, that the Bill should now be re-committed, and the several Amendments to the Clauses proposed on the third reading. Sir R. VYVYAN said he never knew one instance of such a mode with a great question before, and he declared his intention of taking the sense of the House as to the principle on some one of the stages which the Bill had not yet to go through [loud cheers from the Opposition Benches] ADMISSION OF LADIES TO HEAR THE DEBATES. Mr. GRANTLEY BERKELEY said, that by reference to Hatsell, it would be seen that ladies were admitted to hear the debates in 1716, and not only in the g illery but in the lower part of the House. The practice prevailed in the Irish Parliament, it still existed in the Chambers in France, and was recognized in the House of Lords here; and he did not see why the House of Commons should be the only place from which they are excluded. It might be said that ladies ought not to exercise political influence, but when it was admitted as part of our consti- tution that a lady might wear the crown of England, he didjnot see why ladies should not exercise political influ- ence. It was a fact that they possessed a-large share of political intelligence, and that their influence offen deci- ded the elections of counties and towns. Before the late conflagration, ladies did in one sense preside over the proceedings of the House, as they were admitted to seats over it, from which, though inconveniently placed, they could hear the debates. He had been told by some Hon. Members that the admission of ladies would have the effect of increasing the number of orators, as that many who might not otherwise address the House would direct their remarks to the ladies' gallery. He believed that the presence of ladies would not have that effect to any incon- venient extent, but it would have the good effect of check- ing many of those coarse personalities of which they had had too many specimens in the present session. It would, in his opinion, greatly improve the character of the debates, that they would be carried on before a purer au- dience. The reading of the Honourable Member's motion was followed by laughter from both sides of the House. Mr. C. BULLER, Mr. A. FRENCH, and several other Members rose to second the motion, and the competition excited cheers and laughter. Lord J. RUSSELL said he would not enter into the discussion of the merits of the question, but he thought that if the House should adopt the principle involved in the motion there would be necessity for appointing a Se- lect Committee, as Hon. Members might have the honour of deciding it themselves, and there would be the less ne- cessity for this Committee, as the regulation of the ad- mission would be left to the Speaker. Without going into the merits of the question, he would give it his de- cided negative. -On a division the motion for a com- mittee was carried by a majority of 49—the numbers being 153 to 104. The Committee was then appointed. MUNICIPAL CORPORATION BILL. I Lord J. RUSSELL moved that the Municipal Corpora- tions Bill be again re-committed, lie proposing that the Bill should be read a third time on Monday. With a view to this end (his Lordship said in reply to Sir R. Peel) he wished that new clauses might be moved or the third reading, and that amendments on clauses might be taken now. The House then went into Committee. Mr. HUGHES proposed that an amendment should be introduced (in Clause 6,) providing that gifts, or loans, to freemen, resulting from bequest, should not be construed to mean "relief," and thereby to disqualify the party to vote. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL held that this amend- ment was unnecessary that such cases were already provided for.—The amendment was negatived without any division. Mr. BORTHWICK moved to omit the word male," it being provided 1, that every male person of full age, &c., was eligible to be a burgess and to vote."—The Com- mittee divided on it. The numbers were-For the clause in its original state, 135 for the amendment, 69. Mr. PRAED proposed an amendment, to the effect that existing rights of voting for a Member or Members to serve in Parliament may be continued to those on the burgess roll, which was negatived by a majority of 28- the numbers being, for the amendment, 23-1; against it 262. Another division took place on Mr. PONSONBY'S amendment, That the rights of children of freemen already born, and those of persons now serving their ap- prenticeship, be preserved the numbers were, for the amendment, 203 against it, 234—majority 31. Several other verbal amendments were made in some of the clauses, but all proposed by Lord J. Russell were agreed to.—The Committee advanced to Clause 48, which was agreed to. The Chairman then reported progress and obtained leave to sit again to-morrow.—Adjourned. | FRIDAY, JULY 17. I REV. MR. DUPRE. Mr. DUNCOMBE presented a petition from the Rev. Mr. Dupre, Master of the Public Grammar School of Berkhamstead, defending himself against, and explaining charges, preferred against him in a petition heretofore submitted to the House, complaining of his conduct. Mr. WARD thought that, in spite of this petition, such facts were borne out as to warrant former complaints, and expressed a hope that there would be a law to remedy the evils often attendant upon the administration of funds for grammar schools. GERMAN CONFEDERATION. Mr. G. ROBINSON gave notice, that on the 10th of I August he will submit a motion relative to the commer- cial confederation between Prussia and the German States. ORANGE LODGES. I On the question that the House resolve itself into Committee on the Municipal Corporations Bill, Mr. HUME introduced the subject of the recent affray at Belfast, observing that, being an Orange riot, the subject was one of great importance; that it appeared by the evidence taken before the Committee on Orange Associa- tions in Ireland, that Orange lodges not only prevailed throughout the country, but even extended to many of the regiments. Upon being called to order, Mr. Hume said he would, if necessary, move an amendment to the effect that the evidence taken before the Committee be laid before the House. His object was to have the evi- dence respecting Orange lodges in the army, and the orders of the Commander-in-chief in respect of them, laid upon the table, and when both were there he should then bring forward the subject. His object was to im- peach an individual of great station of high crimes and misdemeanors. if it were agreed that the evidence to which he alluded should be laid before the House he would not say one wcrd more. Mr. W. Patten, as Chair- man of the Committee, begged to say that the number of witnesses was so great, and the testimony was of a nature so contradictory, that it would not be fair to publish the evidence already given without suffering the case on the other side to be concluded. He begged to add, that the Committee had observed with regret that communications, the very reverse of truth, respecting the evidence and proceedings had gone forth to the public. After some further conversation, Mr. Hjm? gave notice that on Mon- day he would move for the production of this evidence. The House then once more resolved into Committee on the Municipal Corporations Bill, on the motion of Lord J. RUSSELL. The consideration of the several remaining clauses led to many and extended, but very desultory discussions. The Committee commenced with clause 52. On clause 57 much conversation arose as to the right of the Town Clerks to compensation, it being held that the re-appointment in all cases ought not to deprive of compensation. The whole of the clauses were gone through. Some new clauses were proposed, and negatived without a division. After which the House resumed, the report was received and agreed to, and the Bill was ordered to be read a third time on Monday.— Adjourned at two.
I Spirit of the V- ublic Aottritalo.
I Spirit of the V- ublic Aottritalo. I [FROM THE SUN.] Mr. William Tighe Hamilton, barrister-at-law, and one of the Commissioners appointed to inquire into the state of religious and other instruction in Ireland, has just pub- lished an Abstract of the First Report made under the Commission, which is worthy of especial attention during the present posture of our domestic affairs. This docu- ment, which is arranged with care, and sold at a price which places it within the reach of the less wealthy class of book-purchasers, will explain at a glance the real cause of the late mountebank exhibitions at Exeter-Hall. Con- siderable surprise has been expressed as to how Irish Parsons could reconcile with their ideas of a proper dis- I charge of pastoral functions, an absence from their parishes on a mountebank exhibition in London. The difficulty will disappear by a momentary reference to this Abstract of the Commissioners' Report. Clergymen whose spiritual duties are confined to devouring the tithes of an alien flock may indulge in an occasional visit to the metropolis, or to any other quarter of the world they choose, without suffering from any painful twitches of conscience. Now there are in Ireland no fewer than forty-one benefices, in which there does not exist a single Protestant, ninety-nine in which the Protestant popula- tion, male and female, does not exceed twenty individuals one hundred and twenty four in which the Protestants does not exceed fifty; and one hundred and sixty in which the Protestants do not exceed one hundred souls A Church so rich in sinecures is surely worth fighting for, at a time when retrenchment and reform have become the order of the day and when there is hardly an asy- lutii left for the thick-headed younger branches of the Aristocracy. Here we have no fewer than forty-one shepherds, with not so much as a single ewe-Iamb to bleat after them, all equipped for a mission to England for it ought not to be forgotten, that an Irish Protestant confines all his labours in the Lord's vineyard to a soil where he knows it will be productive. If an Irish Parson resolves upon putting his light in a candlestick, he starts for Exeter Hall; for he has too much contempt for the understanding of the idolaters over whom the Bishop has appointed him spiritual overseer, to waste any of his elo- quence in attempting to convince them of their errors. The Apostles followed a different course, and so likewise did the Missionaries of that Church from whose commu- nion the Rev. Mortimer O'Sullivan found it his interest to separate himself, and against whose doctrines he now inveighs with such fanatical rancour. They laboured for the conversion of unbelieveis devoted their lives to the instruction and edification of those committed to their pastoral charge and, when assailed by the most violent persecutions, continued to treat them as their children. Contrast this conduct with that of the Protestant Clergy in Ireland and, in particular, contrast the fruits of their respective missions. The Clergy of the Irish Protestant Church have for upwards of two centuries devoured a tenth of the productive industry of the cultivated land, besides being actually possessed of nearly one-sixteenth of the soil of the whole kingdom. They have, moreover, been armed with the whole power and influence of the Government. The moral influence of rank and fashion, and the political considerations derived from the exercise of social rights were entirely in their favour. To be a Catholic, was to be a moral and political outcast. Inde- pendent of the pains and penalties avoided by a renuncia- tion of the Catholic religion, the more ambitious had honours held out to them, and the chances of official situ- ations for their sons, and matrimonial alliances for their daughters. The very language of the people was pro- scribed, and a standing army was appointed to play the part of bottle-holders to the Reverend Champions of a Reformed Christian Church. And what has been the blessed fruits of all this national anxiety for the conver- sion of the Irish people ? The answer will be found in the Abstract of the Report now before us—forty-one benefices without a single Protestant! The whole popu- lation of Ireland in 1834 was 7,943,940, of which fi,427,712 professes the Catholic religion, and only 852,064 were members of the Established Church Here is surely work enough for the eloquent traducers of Popery-a sufficiency to shew the zeal with which their predecessors applied themselves to the eradication of a faith which they affected to believe inimical to the principles of civil and religious liberty. Well may Ireland laugh at the infa- tuation of the people of this country, who can see nothing ridiculous in a crusade against the Catholic faith in Exeter Hall! In Ireland the people may be apt to think that the fittest auditors for lectures on the errors of Popery are those who profess that creed. So, however, think not the sages and saints of the British metropolis. They cannot compre- hend how a homily intended to frighten old women here with the horrors of the confessional—horrors, which, by the way, are no contemptible proof of the peculiar powers of an Irish Parson's imagination—can fail to work the instant conversion of O'Connell, and the seven millions," who acknowledge the spiritual supremacy of the Holy See. It is time that the sober-minded people of England should be made acquainted with the real state of the question now at issue between the Irish Parsons and the British Government; for in reality it is the Government and not the Catholics of Ireland that is the object of all these Protest int meetings. What, then, has the Governn.ent done to provoke all this fanatical hostility ? The answer involves the highest praise that has ever been claimed by a British Administration-it has resolved to extend ample and impartial justice to the Irish people, without regard to sect or party. Heavens! What a noble boon this must appear to a nation so long sacrificed to the hypo- cricy, the cupidity, and the sectarian hatred of a handful of bigots who, had they possessed one grain of Christian charity, might have rendered Ireland one of the most Protestant countries in Europe. But they never really sought the conversion of the Catholics, because such a conversion would have placed the whole of the Irish peo- ple on a political equality with themselves. They railed against and denounced the Catholic creed whenever they dreaded that any right was to be conceded to the Catho- lic people but the instant that all apprehension of this sort was removed, they suffered the errors of Popery to be diffused without scruple, among the great bulk of the population. This was the case when Pitt was about to grant concessions to the Irish Catholics. It was the case in 1829, when the Catholic Emancipation Bill was passed and it is the case now, because the Irish Church Bill, and the Irish Corporation Reform Bill, are intended to extend further relief to the Catholic population. Religion has nothing in the world to do with the question and were the Government to take the Orangemen, and the Tithe- hunting Parsons once more to its bosom, Father Dens's Theology might be conned over in every cabin in the sister kingdom without calling forth a single expression of dissent from the Rev. Mortimer O'Sullivan, or his mountebank colleague. If Papists would continue to pay tithes without troubling the House of Commons on the subject, the Irish Parsons would never think of troubling their heads about Popery, or its errors and immoralities. But the instant the Irish Catholic remonstrates against the injustice of supporting a Church from whose dogmas he conscientiously dissents, the Parson is sure to discover that he is steeped to the lips in ignorance and error that his soul is covered with a moral leprosy; and that his creed ought to disqualify him from the enjoyment of the natural birthright of a British subject—the right of poli- tical irresponsibility for religious opinions. With disgust and indignation the really religious people of England have learned, that at the late disgraceful exhibitions at Exeter Hall, Roman Catholics were refused the right of replying to the calumnies that were heaped upon their creed, because they did not come armed with a written warrant under the hands and seals of the Catholic Prelates of Ireland. While the traducers of the Catholics were allowed, without any authority whatever, to deride, villify, and abuse the Catholic Creed, its professors were denied the ordinary privilege of defending it. The Rev. Messrs. O'Sullivan and M'Ghee came armed with no instrument of the kind required from Catholics. They had no war- rant from the Protestant Prelates of either England or Ireland—and we will pledge our reputation for candour, that there are not three members of the Right Rev. Bench in either country, who will defend their conduct as consistent with the canons of the Protestant Church. It may be hardly worth while to notice that when Mr. O'Sullivan, in answer to a demand for his authority to traduce the Catholics, stated that he appeared at the in- stance of the Protestant population of Ireland, he asserted what every person present knew to be an untruth. The Protestants of Ireland have chosen no champion to make war on Popery in Exeter Hall; and when they do, their choice will not fall on any individual notorious for having made his religious principles subservient to his interests. We should be sorry to suppose that Mr. O'Sullivan's con- science will dictate to him that there is any resemblance between such an individual and himself; but although we speak generally, we cannot help thinking that every impartial Protestant will then see the question in the same light that we do. The objects of the fanatics being clearly to embarrass the Government, it is the duty of every honest Reformer in the: Kingdom to assist Min- isters by every means in his power. The people must bestir themselves, if they are determined to put down the Tories, who are again at work for the overthrow of the Whig Cabinet. Religion, as usual, will be made the tooi of their ambition, and the best feelings of the community will, if possible, be enlisted in defence of corruption, under pretence of defending the Altar and the Throne. For our own part, we rely with confidence on the good sense and intelligence of the British people, as an antidote "gainst all the arts of Toryism—as a sure defence against all schemes for the overthrow of the present Administra- tion. Church Reform and Corporation Reform are now the great questions. If the Government is defeated on these, our appeal will be made to the people. Nothing is to be hoped from any other quarter. [FROM TIIE MORNING ADVERTISER.] I The rejection of Lord Radnor's Bill by the House of Lords, for dispensing with the subscribing to the Thirty- nine Articles as a test of admission to the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge, is a melancholy evidence of what may be expected from the intellect and liberality of that assembly. The Noble Mover ably argued that the exist- ence of such tests, which have no parallel in any other University in the world, is a disgrace to our country, and a reproach to our religion. The Bishops, on the opposite side, contended that the subscribing to the Articles was considered as a mere testimony of the matriculator being a member of the Church of England, and not as a voucher of his belief in the Articles themselves. Now, after such admission, is it not worse than ridiculous to hear rational men contend for the continuation of a system of falsehood, whereby individuals are required to attach their signature to what they do not understand, and which even if they did, it is not expected they should believe ? Nor are there, we confidently assert, any two members of the Church perfectly agreed on the whole of the Articles. The conscientious man who forbears attaching his signa- ture to an incomprehensible and inconsistent document is excluded from the favourable cultivation of knowledge while the reckless tyro signs his name without thinking of his religion, and struts into collegiate honours to the exclusion of his betters. The Bishop of Llandatf, with an affectation of liberality, recommedded the establishment of separate Universities for the Dissenters, which, as Lord Melbourne, in an eloquent and admirable speech, display- ing considerable research, proved to be culculated to keep alive dissensions and jealousies, and prevent our youth from meeting at one place in common, and being urged on by that spirit of liberal emulation so advantageous in the prosecution of learned and scientific investigation. The Duke of Wellington admitted having signed the Articles when lately dubbed Doctor at Cambridge, and contended that the University of Oxford could not main- tain its authority, if there were to be any discussion, or if Dissenters were to be admitted to its Halls. Doctor Wel- lington is right in his opinion that many of our ancient and venerable institutions can neither bear the test of in- vestigation nor discussion. The majority against the second reading was 106. So much for the wisdom of hereditary legislation However, the time is approaching when other tests will be applied to their Lordships and, though, for their own sakes, as well as for the peace of the country, we wish them safe over the ordeal, we have our misgivings—their case seems one of hopeless inveteracy, at least requiring a remedy as radical as the disease of their constitution. For our own part we should wish a lenient treatment; but if a just and righteous necessity be forced upon the country, our motto is-fiat justitia rllat caelum. [FROM THE MORNING CHRONICLE.] It is proper that the country should he told, that the Tory Peers and factious courtiers are forming fresh designs to overthrow the Liberal Administration, and to defeat the consequences of the Reform Bills. A special meeting was held yesterday at the Duke oflWellington's attended by the Tory Leaders of both Houses, when the Party, it is rumoured, resolved to hazard the dismissal of Lord Melbourne's Government—if practicable. We can further inform the Public, that a decided schism exists among the Opposition, as to the policy of Sir Robert Peel with res- pect to the Ministerial measure of Corporation Reform. Although Sir Robert Peel has hitherto succeeded tolerably well in controlling the Tories in the House of Commons, he has not converted the Peers. On Monday we exhibited Mr. Croker as the destructive commentator on the Corpo- ration Bill in the Quarterly Review. We know that the Ultra Tory Lords participate in his estimate of the mea- sure. A considerable portion of the Tory Press has not concealed its abhorrence of Municipal Reform. Yester- day a manifesto appeared in a laboured pamphlet, entitled Vf hat should the Lords do with the Corporation Reform Bill?" The authors of this pamphlet—for the authorship is plural—recommend to the Lords a bold stand," and hesitate not to point out "the position which Sir R. Peel ought to have taken." The Tory pamphleteers, in a sub- sequent passage, indicate the mutilations which the Lords ought" to effect The Ministry have fairly outwitted themselves in their present attempt, and had Sir Robert Peel happily seen his way to the advo- cacy of the 10/. franchise, he would have secured the confidence of the Parliamentary electors, and, on the rejection of the Bill, would have insured a majority on a dissolution. He has not seen this but it is yet not too late. The Commons will not alter, but the Lords may; and if the Lords show a willingness to cede all the material points of reform, without involving confiscation or household suff- rage, t!iey may yet arrest successfully the progress of this extreme revolutionary measure." The pamphlet abounds in the grossest errors and the most absurd fallacies but it is temperately written as an Alarmist tocsin, and the palpable drift of it is to gain over the Lords to the destruction of the measure. The Pamphleteers place before their Lordships the awful alter- native On the other hand, should the Lords pass it, what will follow? The national consequences have been before depictedj and though we may for a few months pause, the movement will have proceeded beyond reca). Republican PR 511 CI P1will gather strength under the inJrp,«intrhnW "ess of thUe 'Men of the Movement,' until, during the weakness of a Rc?gencyo or the crisis of some unlooked-for calamity, the ma" onarchv.y may sink before a Long Parliament, and a Protector or a President succeed." If such really would be the consequences of Municipal Reform, the Men of the Movement" would, indeed, have reason for rejoicings-such few as are Republican but the false prophets will not impose on their country- men All these diatribes are intended to make the Lords gird up their loins, and fight for abuses. How long is the Reform Bill to be neutralised by the Tory Peers ? We would not, however, wish to put before the Lords plainer truth than the following extracts from this pamphlet, which follow a lamentation over the effect of Parliament- ary Reform When, under the Reform Act, the nomination boroughs were destroyed, and the elective franchise was so largely extended, the House of Commons became, in the fullest sense, independent of the Peers. The whoie House was at once dependent on popular feeling "S1 property and stat;on may exercise some influence, yet Plfbhlf" OpinIon will exercise far greater, and the feelings of the House 6f Peers will never for themselves be respected. Now it is manliest the real government is in the Commons. The Peers will not dare to exercise a check upon them, save where such a check will be consonant with public opinion. Should they stop a poplilar measure which has the support of the Commons, the Supplies' atford an opportunity of commanding obedience, which the Com. mons are now accustomed to, and which neither King nor Peers can escape. The sense of these passages is excellent, whatever the design of the writers might he. The Appropriation Bill is not passed the loss of the Irish Tithe Bill must be the destruction of the Irish Church—these are securities for the conversion of the Lords, which give us some confidence that they will not provoke the people. We should say that the imminent question is, "Shall the Commons or the Lords govern."

It is a most interesting fact that the Scotch peasant who sheltered Prince Charles after his defeat at Culloden, and when the price of 30,0001. was put upon his head, was after- wards hanged for stealing a cow! MORE PLAIN THAN PLEASANT.—A lady playing on the piano-forte, on being being called on for a dead- march, asked Mr. H., a celebrated professor of music, what dead-march she would play to which he replied, Any march that you will play will be a dead one, for you're sure to murder it." A SEARCHING EYE.—During the Lent Assizes at York, in 1820, MI. Brougham sat looking intently at a witness who was giving evidence, and whom he was about to cross-examine, which produced the effect attributed to the basilisk for the poor fellow, after several ineffectual attempts to go on, declared that he could not say another word, unless "that gentleman," pointing to him, would take his eyes off him." It is related of a certain French cook, who had been in the service of the late Marquis of Abercorn, that he refu- sed to accompany the Duke of Richmond to Ireland, with a salary of X400 per annum, on learning that there was not any Italian Opera in Dublin. 0 Two tom-tits having recently been shot at Bandrake- head, in Northumberland, on the very day that the hen hatched a brood of young birds, a wren attracted by their chirping has adopted them as her own, and is now engaged in rearing the poor little orphans. Dr. Nordman discovered in the eyes of several different species of perch, eye worms, sometimes in such numbers as may have interfered with the distinct sight of passing objects. In the single eye he detected in different parts 360 of these animalcules; when much increased, they often produce cataracts in the eyes of the fishes they infest. SEA BIRDS.-Captain Ross throws out a good hint in his narrative. Talking of some shearwaters which atten- ded the ship, and which they shot and had dressed in a pie, he says, It has been overlooked by every one that the fishy flavour of all these animals (the sea birds) is confined to the fat; the whole of which also is lodged immediately under the skin, and is chiefly situated on the haunches. The muscles are always free of any oily or rancid or fishy taste so that nothing more is requisite than to skin the animals, and especially on the back, to render them undistinguishable from a land bird. In this way," he adds, "even the cormorant and the puffin, strong tasted as they are, can be cooked in any manner, without the possibility of being recognised for sea-fowl." While Captain Ross was wintering in Felix Harbour, in the month of July, a party once brought from the salmon fishery 500 fish, and returned for 200 more, which was all they could carry, "bringing also," he adds, a note from the Commander, by which I learned that they had taken 3,378 fish at one haul that they had taken in all 5,067, but were obliged to leave 3,000 of them to the natives." For a large knife an Esquimaux gave him out of one of their frozen pits 220 fish, averaging five pounds each, and therefore producing a ton weight of salmon. AN ODD Fisa.-On Wednesday week, was caught alive, at Spurn, a fish sixty feet in length, and about fifty tons weight. It is supposed to be a "finner." The capture was effected without much difficulty the visitor-extraor- dinary having swam ashore, or taken rest upon the bank, on the retiring of the tide, and was unable to extricate itself. It was, however, secured, and died in bondage on the following morning.—Lincoln Gazette. REPENTANCE.—The late Rev. Mr. G-, happening one day to go into the church-yard white the beadle was employed, neck-deep, in a grave, throwing up the mould and bones to make way for another person, thus accosted him—" Well, Saunders, that's a work you're employed in well calculated to make an old man, like you, thought- ful. I wonder you dinna repent o' your evil ivays." The old worthy resting himself on the head of his spade, and taking a pinch of snuff, replied, I thought, Sir, ye kent that there was nae repentance in the grave.Tlte Laird of Lugan. SIR EDWARD BANKS.—This gentleman (a partner in the house of .J olifre and Banks), died on Sunday last. One anecdote of his goodness of heart, out of hundreds that could be told, will perhaps form the best encomium we could oITer on his past life. While in Parliament lie became acquainted with the late unfortunate Mr. Henry Hunt, Member for Preston, and lent him 300/. Circum.- stances prevented the repayment of this sum, and Mr. Hunt, when on a sick bed, sent for Sir Edward, and informed him that he was about to part with his business, and could not immediately repay his bill, but promised, when the opportunity offered, Sir Edward should Jbe the first to be borne in his recollection. Sir Edward imme- diately said, "Mr. Hunt, I have been fortunate through life-it has been your fate to be otherwise I have enough for my wants and those of my family, and should be sorry to oppress one like yourself, who has had much to con- tend with, and whose principles have, perhaps, not been understood. Make your mind easy regarding any claim I may have against you, for thus I cancel it (thrusting the bill, which Mr. Hunt had given him, into the tire)." INSTINCT.—The operations of pure instinct-by far the greater portion of the exertions of brutes-have ne.er been supposed by any one to result from reasoning, and certainly they do afford the most striking proofs of an intelligent cause as well as of a unity of design in the world. The work of bees is among the most remarkable of all facts in both respects. The form is in every coun- try the same—the proportions accurately alike—the size the very same to the fraction of a line go where you will and the form is proved to be that which the irost refined analysis has enabled mathematicians to discover as of all others the best adapted for the purposes of saving room, and work, and materials. This discovery was only made about a (e itury ago-nay, the instrument that enables us to find it out—the lfn,vional calcitlus-was unknown half a century before that application of its powers. And yet the bee had been for thousands of years in all coun- tries unerringly working to this fixed rule, choosing the same exact angle of 120 degrees for the inclination of the sides of its little room, which every one had for ages known to be the best possible angles, but also choosing the same exact angles of 110 and 70 degrees for the in- clinations of the roof, which no one had ever discovered till the 18th century, when ATaclaren solved that most curious problem of maxima and minima, the means of in- vestigating which had not existed till the centurv before when Newton invented the calculus, whereby such prob- lems can now be easily worked. It is impossible to con- ceive any thing more striking as a proof of refined skill than the creation of such instincts, and it is a skill alto- gether applied to the formation of intellectual existence. -Lord Brougham s Discourse on Natural Theology. HATTox-GARDE, A FRESH ARRIVAL. — Patrick Mooney and Peter Clancy, Irisliiren, were charged by Patrick Macguire, a fresh arrival" from the city of Cork, with being concerned in robbing him of 1/. 15s.— It appears that Macguire, on his arrival in London, treated some of his friends and got drunk, when the money was taken from his pocket whilst asleep.—Mr. Rogers Have you got any witnesses ?-Mac,uire Sure and I have, there are the prisoners themselves.—Did any body see the money taken ? No, but Mooney says he drank part of it — (a laugh.)—I ask you again have you got any witnesses? —Mooney To be sure lie has, to murther us and take our lives away—(laughter.)—Mr. Rogers Silence, Sir. —Mooney Your honour's pardon, but sure we don't want to be kilt innocent.—Mr. Rogers (to the prosecu- tor) Were you drunk, Sir ?—Prosecutor No, but I was harty.—Mr. Rogers I shall discharge the prisoners unless you produce evidence.—Phelim Beaumont was sworn.—Mr. Rogers: Well, Sir, what do you know about it ?-Plielitn Why I hard that Mooney took the money, and I asked why he was so "honourable" as to rob my strange frind, and he said that Biddy Doolan took the money and offered it to him, but he would not have it, but himself and Claney drank 5s. of it.—Did you see the property taken ? Arrah then your honour do you think I would see a poor gracian like himself robbed and stand by? (laughter.)—Mr. Rogers asked Mooney what account he could give of it ?—Mooney They say I dhrank 5s. of the money. Biddy Doolan stole it to be sure.and wanted us to have part of the money, but we would not take it and had it in beer and gin.-Claney made a similar defence, and they were both remanded. GALLANTRY.—The following remarkable and beautiful trait of gallantry and magnificence is transcribed from a manuscript in the French court, time of Louis XIV.— Madame de Blot, when very young, once said to the Prince of Conti that she wished to have the portrait of her canary in a ring. The Prince offered to give her the portrait and the ring; which offered Madame de Blot accepted on condition that the ring should be mounted in the simplest manner and not set with stones. The ring was in fact, only a plain hoop of gold but instead of glass to cover the portrait, a large diamond had been used, which was ground as thin as glass. Madame de Blot discovered this piece of prodigality and returned the diamond. Upon which the Prince of Conti caused the diamond to be ground into powder, and used it to dry the ink of the letter he wrote on the subject to Madame de Blot." UP WITH THE Su-We rise with the sun at Christ- mas; it were but continuing to do so till the middle of April, and without any perceptible change we should find ourselves then rising at five o'clock; at which hour we might continue till September, and then accommodate ourselves again to the change of season, regulating always the time of retiring in the same proportion. They who require eight hours' sleep would, upon such a system, go to bed at nine during four ruonths.-Soidliey. "What are you about?" one day said Cardinal Maza- rin to La Motte Lenoyer, tutor to the only brother of Louis XIV. Making an able man of the King's brother ? Should he become more learned than his elder brother he would no longer be able to yield a blind obedience." And afraid that the King's brother might be better educated than the King, the anti-education C Cardinal ordered the tutor not to make his Majesty's brother study at al1.- Plantagent, a new fashionable novel.

STATE OF EUROPE.-To whichever side we turn our eyes, a picture presents itself which is not that of peace. The Peninsula and Italy have only to be named-to call up ideas of convulsion, of struggling opinions, of opposing influences, of insecurity and even war—the suspension of hostilities in Holland and Belgium, the independence of Sweden, are contingent only on the union of the policy of the five great powers. These powers are all in a state of opposition-all having separate objects, distinct pro- jects, alarms, and secrets. Prussia is making a peaceable conquest of all the small states of Germany—France dis- membering in the South the Ottoman Empire, combining with Russia to overthrow it, combining with England to support certain principles in Spain-Austria, united in interests to England, is united by principles to Russia. Austria is opposed to Prussia's incorporations in Germa- ny she agrees with her in Holland, Belgium, and the Peninsula she agrees with England in Germany and the East, but disagrees with her in Holland, eigium, and the Peninsula. Austria and Prussia seem to ,unite against England and France, yet Austria and Prussia are opposed in their most vital interests and perhaps the action of the policy of England and France is not less at variance whatever their principles or interests may be. Prussia, the most democratic of powers in her administration, the most despotic and legitimate in her policy, swallows up Germa- ny by her apparent liberality, and throws into the scale of legitimacy dearly twenty millions (by acquisition in 1815 and 1835) of the most enlightened population of Europe, and our natural and coiiiiiiercial tllies.-British and Fo- reign Review. LIGHTXING. A curious instance of the effects of lightning occurred some time since at Granvold, the elec- tric fluid having struck and destroyed a church, and at the same moment a house six miles from it; a similar accident occurred several years afterwards to the new church and house that had been erected upon their sites. The probable reason of this is, that there is a vein of some metal connecting together the two sites. FEATHER BEDS.—With respect to feather beds much difference of opinion exists we believe the too common practice of sleeping in feather beds has a great tendency to relax the nervous system, thus creating a susceptibility to disease. Persons anxious to keep the system in an healthy state should sleep on a mattress. The celebrated Mr. Abernethy used to state in his lectures that he had never slept on a feather bed, and he attributed his good health, in a great degree, to the habit of sleeping on a hard mattress. Sir John Sinclair in his Code of Health" also states it as his opinion that the luxurious feather bed enervates the system. We recollect an observation which was made to us by an officer who was engaged in the Peninsular war, viz. that he never enjoyed such sound re- freshing sleep, and such excellent health of body and cheerfulness of mind, as when he slept for five or six nights successively on a hard floor. We might as well accustom ourselves to what are considered hardships, for we cannot tell in what situation we may be placed.-Ora- cle of Health.

The Wheat Market com- menced at higher prices, but the Millers did not seem inclined to purchase so that the t. ade was dull, and closed rather cheaper. Barley remains without varia- tion.
