House of Lords , May 30 . Catholic Peers Bill . The Duke of Portland wished to postpone the order for the second reading of this Bill , alleging the absence from indisposition and from a domestic calamity of the noble Earl ( Grey ) who was to
have moved it ; and other circumstanced . As the postponement was indefinite , it Lj supposed that this was a virtual abandonment of the measure .

Mil bank Penitentiary , From the Report of the Committee of the General Penitentiary at Milbank , just printed , it appears that " the number of prisoners for whom provision has been made in the Penitentiary , rather exceeds the intended number of 1000 ( 600 males
and 400 females ) than falls short of it . There were , within its walls , on the 31 st of December last , 708 convicts . The present number is 723 : viz . 399 males , and 324 females . " It appears further , that the total earnings for the year ending the 31 st of December , amounted to £ 6031 .

/ Our readers will sincerely participate fnth us in the victory of liberal feelings over a vulgar spirit of bigotry , in the ijaestion about the continuance of Mr . Lawrence in his honorary appointment of Surgeon to Bridewell and Bethlem Hospitals . In the Annual election of
the present year a most extraordinary attempt was made to declare Mr . Lawrence ineligible ; but Mr . Alderman Waithman , in a most able speech , referred to the histories of philosophy and of religious intolerance , and demonstrated the disgrace that would attach to the body of Governors , if so narrow a spirit
triumphed . On a division there were fifty-two against the motion , and only twenty-dix in its favour , among whom we are deeply concerned at having to hame the Duke of Sussex . To the honour of the profession no man of character could be prevailed on to place
himself in the ignominious situation of being a candidate in opposition to Mr * Lawreuce . At the election , on the following day , he was returned by a majority of seven to one , over two obscure persons who permitted their names to stand as candidates . —Monthly Mag .

It might probably be expected ; that after the able and learned at * guia © a « which had gone forth to the world upon a subject so materially affecting the happiness of mankind , he sfibuld state his answer to that argument ; bat if he left these parties to a court of law—and he should leave them to a , court of law—his opinion might have
the effect of prejudicing the question to be were determined . All he would say , therefore , was , that , entertaining a rational donbt upon some parts of the work , as to their being directed against the truth of Scripture , he would not continue this injunction ; but the plaintiff might apply for another after he had cleared away that doubt in a court of law . Further than this , his Lordship would not interfere . — Injunction dissolved .
