Monday , May 29. The House Of Lokds Did ...
had the satisfactioH te put upm ths statutcbosU r measurs to relieve the bakers from labour upon - ^ j dsvs . Ou the same principles on which he then actea ct should support the motion now before them . ^ Co ' onef TmraoKsaid . he felt in a eort ot dilemma r « p = ctirig suehamo'ienES this , but the priccple he always acted on was , that engagements must be kept In a-s ic terconr « e with the working clas » e 3 he liaa alwai » told them that no good results were to be expect from motions Ot thiSSOrt , but that if they desired iscb inquiries they were entitled to them . He should scion that principle on this occasion . L * rd B . Geosvesos repUed , and expressed a hope Hut , notwithstanding the unfortunate opposition of tbe government , he shou ' . d still have a majority . The house divided—For ths motion * Aesmstlt 55—1
ECC 7 . ESU 5 TIC 11 CoTJSTS—Kr Boovebie brocgfet forward nis motion relative ts tho reformation cf the Eccktlastical CourtF , maving resolutions to tha effect that their continued existence was injurious to the subjjct , and a scandal to the judicial system of the country . Sir G Geet concurred In the general views erpr * 6 « d Tsy the ho ' aonrable gentleman , and only opposed the motion en the ground of the impossibility of discussing a UU wn-ca ba 4 been already prepared on the subject by tie A-. torney-Ganeral during the present sesiion , and which would £ e brought in early in the next ; ha therefore > roul 3 move the previous quiiticn . Atter same disccsshn the amendment was agreed to without a division
. Tns Pdblic AccotJKrs . —Dr Bowsikg then moved a eericaV resolution ? , to the effect that the whole amount of tbe ^ ares , aud of tha various other E 0 UtC ? S of income for the pablic account , should , in the first instance , be either usid into , or accounted for , te the Eieheqaer ; that no department of tie revenue should be allowed to ttop saj portion of its gross receipts in their progress to the EiehiQUrr , withcut the previous suthoriiy of Parliament ; \ n < < thatH 9 department of expenditure ehoold be permi-u-i » . to appropriate to tha public service any ether sunss ; Un those sanctioned by previous vo ' -es of Parllatne-. t , and that all receipts from sales of stores , or other sources , should be paid Into the Exchequer .
The Osikcelloe of tb . eExc 2 EO . CES agreed with many cfthe prisciples laid down by DriJowrtng , butdissentsd IVoai cost of the practical conclusions waich he was inclined -o draw from them . The present mode of keepin ? ris scconnis was sanction » d by long practice , and although SOEio improvements m ' ght be effected in it , he wis not prepared to sanction such sweeping changes as were proposed by tbe hon . and learned gentleman . Afirr some discussion , Dr jjowkiso consented to withdraw all the resolutions bUtth . StSt one , which he regarded ns of such importing that he would take the sens ? of tho bsuse upon t . Tbo resolution was 35 follows : — 'That this bonse cannot be the effectual guardian oi tke revenues cf the State unless the whole amount of tho taxes , and Of var ! -ns other sources of income , received for the f ublic account , be either paid into , or accounted for , to ibeEsrfc . qo . tr .

The Chakceixos of ths Exchequer , on the refusal of Hi Bering te withdraw all his resolutions , moved the previcas question . The house divided , anotfie nnabers were—For the question bsing put ... 55 Against it ... ... ... oi Majority for ... —I Tbe resolution was then put , aad tha DU-nhers

'MpiHr Mr O ' Cessaa slid that the ruht hon . baronet the Sscretary for the Home Defjartsi-ct tad given notice of his ia'ention to call upon ths h : u ; e to make an alteration in thb constitution , of the K itional Land Company Committee , as originall y proposed by him ( Mr O'Connor . ) The right hon . baronet wish-d to substitute ths names of Mr Haytsr , Mr vrortley , a-. d l £ r Hrywcod , for tbose of Mr Langston , Mr
Heig er , and Mr Dsvereux . Although he had no great likin ? for members of the legal profession actlcg on committc- s , he would not oV ject to the substitution of the naffiES of Mr "Wortly and Mr H ^ yter for those of " r Mess- cr and Mr Dtvereux : but be wishel Mr Langstan to be retained on ths committee , bacause his acquaintance with sgricultural matters would prove useful there . If tb- riiht hon . baroa ^ t was particularly anxian ? * o have Mr H ? ywood en the c ; ua : nitte ? , why rot find roopj for bin by excluding someother m--mber than Mr Linj-Eton ? He ( Mr O ' Connor ) had no ofj ; ctian to leave out the h . Ti . baronet the member for Marylebone . ( A laugb , ) Sir G . Gsef faid , he- had no pirsanal o ^ tction to slv
of lb ? uvn ? i proposed by the honourablt meaber , and tbe ;»' . ¦ erations which he ( Sir G . Grevj bad" sogxt-sced ¦ wer ¦ ., nly with the view of m & Tsiag the commUtee more cfnt-Viit . If thi : bonoura ' cle member bad t ^ ben tbe usa = ' : course of communicating with him , previous to pri ' . it ug bis prrposerllist , ths constitution of the commit ' . e cou' : ( i have fceinsrrarged without anj- dimV-uh-- . A'l hrt ajsired was to nave a : u' ! and scarcbine iuqu ' . ry inso be subject . Mr Ileywood was propose- ! by him as a msmbtroftho committee , because hewai eorjnccted with a pnrt ti the eoantrv mtic ' -i interested in the hiu . memoirs ^ absme , for tae operatives tf Liiittisbire had been inrltrd to tike shares in the Compaui , aed many of tbetn bad p ^ id tbeir £ 4 far that purpose .
S r B Hall said that sltfeoagh i , e "vas the person who first proposed tbat the scheme of t > . e hnnourabl- mernb-r for Kottinjfcntu should be subjected to a ss « rciiirg inquiry , the honourable -at-nbar now raid that he had rathtr not huve bim for a member of the connrit-ej . But be would serve on the committee , for be was determined to sift the scheme to the bottom . It vr & s right that tbe public should know how the hr-nonrable member had proposed to constitute tbe comt-utite which vvtC to investigate t subject of considerable legal d fSeulty . Setting aside the honourable member , who would , of course , be chairman , thi re would remain fourteen members aad of those seven had never sat in that kour-e bsf .:-re . ( ILa ? , h-ar . ) The honcu- ? bls member find statea ia thst house , that when he was at tho bar he had aorepriiuce trian anyone else . MrO'CosKos . —Of my years . O laugh . )

SirB Haii ., es regarded Scotland , tail scheme , he believed , was attempted to be connected with that coun . try ; there was one Scotch member on tbe committee , while rhere were six who were connected with Ireland , Such had been the constitution of this ccrninlttee .
Ticwas most thankful to his right hon . friend ( Sir G . Grey ) for baricr ; on the part of the government not inttriorcn further with ihb nomination of this committee . Ho { Sir B . Hn !') might have taken the sense of the hcus ^ whether a committee ought not to be appointed and in that caSi , he ro'ght have nominated the committee him-6 = ;!? , subject to the approval of thebouEa . But lu wna desirous that tho semination of the committee should rest in ths hinds c-f the hon . and learned gentle-ma * . He wished tbat hen . and learned gentleman to eppo'n-Ms own joxy toetrry out his scheme .

tp . Uhtbe had with any member of the goverammt . That was the courses he had pursued . The questien as to tbe legality of the scheme was one which tmzit c « me b » fore tbe house again under any circumstances . At to whatbad fallen from thehon . baronet tho member for Marylebone , tbat hon . gentleman appeared to have come prematurely prepared with his brief . If any cause csuld be shown for objeeting to that hon . baronet's being on the committee , he most certainly had shown that objection himself , for . by his mods of addressing hlmsell te the subject the , nicht , he clearly marked the temper in which he would approach the inquiry . As to the objecrion urged to the nomiaaiion of yonng tBtmbers , he ( MrF . O ' Coaoor ) coafessed that he would much rather dispense with the services of the old musty prejudices of
those gentlemsn who were in the habit of serving on committees . ( Laughter . ) Objection had also been made to tho numberof agricultural members nominated on the committee , but it should be known that the membets of the National Laud Association were not confined to the manufacturing districts ; they were ipread over all the country . Ths feasibility and practicability of the scheme were what he req-iired to have ascertained , and that was the reason why he wished to have practical agriculturalists on tbe committee A plan of exactly the same description had been highly euleghsed by Lore Clarendon when adopted iu Ireland , As to the threat of the hon . baronet tbat if be should be on the committee
he wouid insist upon a searching inquiry , he ( Mr F . O'Coaaer ) begged to assure him that If he could shake he plan and destroy it he ( Mr F . O'Connor ) should be satisfied with ( ha reeult . With regard to the registration of this company , he went in that direction as lar as he could until he fouad that if be proceeded further it would be ruinous , aad then he determined to appeal to parliament . But the registration would have been completed , but for a doubt entertained by Mr Tidd Pratt , in consequence of a construction which had been put upon certain words by Mr Justice Wightman diff-srent from a former construction which had been put upon words fjusiem generis . The Attobney Gineeal , — No , so !
Mr F . O'Cossoa would challenge tbe Attorney G . neral to disprove his statement . The Attorney Gekesal said , that ha refused to allow tfee Company to bo registered , because , in hig opinion , tbe schema wag not legal . ( Sear , he » r , ) Mr F . O'Cor . vob suid , the directors went bcf ° re t Tidd Pra tt , and this was the firat time he had ha tbat tbe AttorneyGaaeral was in the way of the regis tration being completed . The Company , as ho ha dbe " fore stated , was provisionally registered , and , as they all kacw , tho deed of the Cempany was the thing to
be reg istered . Now , the object which he had In view , arising out of the ceursa which he took in that house , was to lay ike feundaHon far doing those things in such a manner as to save expense to the subscribers , by avoidins the cost of stamp dut ' es Vfith reference to the composition of the committee , he could only express the strong regret which he felt that any one of liia juroiB should have been so very captions as he hil found the honourable baronet the member for Marylebeni . If tbe right honourable baronet the Home Secretary , wished that tbe hotourable member for Minlebone should belong to the committee , and that * > St Lingston was not wUHng to serve , then he should accede to tbe wishes of tho right honourable baronet ; but he hoped that the honourable baronet , the member for Marylebone , would go in to the committee uabiassed , and that be would , while he sat in judgment on tbe
echtme , endeavour to lay aside such feelings as he had that night thought proper to express . It was only necessary for him to add that he wished for the most com . pi ' - 'ta and searching inquiry . Perhaps tbe best illustration he could give of tho positiou of the honourable baronet , was py comparing it with that of an Irish solicitor , who when Lord Clare was Chancellor , disturbed the CDurt . His lordship asked him if be was in the cause , and for which of tbe parties he was concerned—he was a relative of the defendants , and was employed by the plaintiff—so he repl ' ed , ' My lors " , I am employed for the plaintiff , and CONCARSED for tke defendant . ( Great laughter . ) Now he ( Mr O'Connor ) thought that that would turn out to be the position iu which the boaourable baronet steod , as the complU ments paid to t ^ . a honourable gentleman ' s right honourable friend ( Sir George Grey ) were very SBspicloua . ( Hear , hear . )
Sir G . Gesy said , that bis wish was to make as slight an alteration as possible in the constitution of tho committee . As thtre seemed to be some doubt as to whether Mr Langston was willing to serve or not , he should take care to communicate with that hon . gentleman , and if ht could not servo , then there could be no objection to the appointment of Mr Hey wood . The nomination of the csmmittee , as proposed , was t ! ien agreed to , and the remaining orders of the day having b ; en disposed of , the house adjourned at halfpast vne o ' clock . WEDNESDAY . May 31 . IiOUSE OF COMMONS . —Romas Catholic Relief JSiLC , —On the motion ro go hate committee oa this bill ,
Mr Law moved , as an amendment , that it be an instruction to the committee to divide the bill into two parts . H ; s object was to separate that portion which referred to the removal of penalties inflicted by old statutes fr < -m the part which was designed to remove the secuii-iss taken when tbe Emancipation Act of 1829 was passed . He thought it right that , as the two principles w-ro entirely different , opportunity should be given to the bou ? i to tlecide on thea as distinctive question . After seme discussion tbe bouse divided , and tbe numbers were
Fortbe amendment 142 Against it 129 Majority far 13 The house then went into committee ; but the proceedings were so very confused and irregular that when elx o'clock came noprogress had been made in the considera tion of the bill . Tbe CHiiBHAN then quitted the chair and the houea broke up .
[ From our Third Edition of lost week . ) THURSDAY , M » y 25 1818 HOUSE OF LORDS . —Jews Disabilities Bill , — The Marquis of Landsdowne moved the second reading of this bill , and ia so doisg , contended that the constitution excluded no man from participation in the regulation of the affairs of the country on account of his opinions , and that by no Act of Parliament had the Jews ev < r beer , specifically refused admission into Parliament . The oaths which formed the only barrier against a Jew takitg hi = seat us a Member of either House had been enactiid solely and avowedly for the purpose of excluding Roman Catholics at a critical period , when it was feared p- ; r ^ o n 9 of that re' . icion were favourable to the causa of tbe Pretender . He did not believe that on religious grounds they were bound to exclude Jews , nor did he consider persons of the Jewish persuasion unfit to have a voice in the legislature .
The Earl of Ellenbobocob" moved that the bill he read a tecond time that day six months . Tbe Duke of Cahbxidqe opposed the bill . Viscount Cankisg supported the bill , and the Archb ' . ihopofCANTEBBDiY and Earl Wihchelsea briefly declared their Intention of giving it opposition . Tbe Dake of Abgtle supported the second reading ot the bill , as did also the Bishop of St David ' s , lb .-. Bishop of Oke-obd opposed the hUl , on the ground that tbe Jews w : re a separate nation , and that tbey verged en InSJelity . Toe Eirl of St Gebhans said no reason was adrtn- 'i-. d . nor did he know any reason why the Jews I ' x'ni" ! iios enjoy civil rights in their full extent , und be t . riieved tbat if they were admitted to seats in tbe lesmiature tbey would become useful and proper legislature .
Lord Stasley based his opposition on religious grounds . He could not consent to phce Jews on the aanio footing as Christians . L -rd BaoccnAH supported the biff . Tte Marquis of Lansuowne repHtd , after which the house divided on the question , that the bill be read a scond time , when there appeared—Contents : —Present 9 G Proxies 32 123 Non-contcn ' . s ;—Present , „ „ ,, 125 Proxies 38—1 C 3 Majority acainst the government- —35 The CoiiHous were eccupled , the entire night in coicmitiec on tha Public Health BUI . Erentaally progress was reported , in order that tbe bill might be m printed . FRIDAY . May 20 th .

Immolation Of The Patriot, John Mitchel....
IMMOLATION OF THE PATRIOT , JOHN MITCHEL . The patriot has fallen . The fust victim under the Gauging Bill has been immolated at the altar of British despotism . Ireland is once more struck down to the dust in the person of her noblest son . John Mitchel is at this moment loaded with chains , and subjected to every pain and penalty prescribed by the law for the worst outcasts of society . Whut has been John Mitcliel ' s crime ? The " crime" of loving his country , and struggling for the rights of the oppressed millions . He is not the first Irishman who has devoted
himself—mind and body , heart and soul , blood and life—to the ever defeated , hut ever glorious , struggle to redeem his country from a foreign yoke , and the sons and daughters of his native land from slavery ; hut he is the first man amongst Ireland ' s modern patriots—sham and real—who has boldly unveiled the hideous t'ices of Ireland ' s ( antisocial system , and manfully contended for the rights of the labourers and the sons of the soil—their social as well as their political rights . The cry of " Ireland for the Irish'' was not raised by John Mitchel in the hollow and juggling sense it was employed by Daniel O'Connell- The
founder of the United Irishman desired that every industrious Irishman should have a share in the blessings , which by Nature ' s bounteousness and the virtues of her children , Ireland ought to be possessed of . The martyr desired that , not only should his countrymen walk their native land free from English tyranny , but also from local aristocratical oppression . He aspired not only , like Emmett , to free his loved land from foreign thrall , but also , like the Gracchii , to redeem his poor countrymen from the grinding tyranny of the robbers of the soil nnd the p lunderers of Labour .
Therefore , John Mitchel has been sacrificed . The Irish aristocrats and the English aristocrats , who hold and possess the richest tracts of Ireland ' s soil by the brigand ' s right —conquest—hounded on the English government to destroy him . Secretly leagued , too , with these were the sham patriots who , for a long time past , have made a trade of agitation , and who , therefore , desired the destruction of the man who was too virtuous to be a party to their thimble riggery . That hypocrite , John O'Connell , who , now pretends to shed tears of sympathy over the fallen , fettered patriot , and
his noble-hearted wife and children — that same O'Connell did his best to bring about the atrocity which he now affects to deplore ! Can it be true that Smith O'Brien has played a part only second in treachery to that played by the vile O'Connell ? Why has " the descendant of Brien Boru" studiously kept himself from any expression of feeling in favour of his gallant countryman ? Is it true , as the Dublin correspondent of the Times asserts , that some of those who were supposed to be
friends of Mr Mitchel have , since the trial , been'" blandly insinuating that theyjrepudiated his doctrines—that he was too ' go-a-head' for their gentle nerves—that , in broad fact , he deserved what he got , and that a troublesome ally had been satisfactorily disposed of ? "For the honour of Irishmen we hope this is not true . The prosecutors , judges , and jurors of poor Mitchel would be regarded as honest and true men , compared with such false-hearted heirs of Judas .
We admit that John Mitchel did violate the Gagging Act , and was , therefore , according to Parliament-made law , guilty of "Felony . " But , then , his ' ' guilt , " so called , was virtue ; his crime entitJeci him not to the fetters of the Felon , but to the civic crown of the Patriot . In the language of Mr Holmes , though stattitably guilty he was not morally guilty . To convict John Mitchel was to convict Ireland , and acquit and justif y Ireland ' s oppressors . England is our native land , but we declare that had we been on the Jury , not ten thousand Acts of Parliament , Attorney-General ' s accusations , Judge ' s charges , or oath-swearing mummeries , should have induced us to have agreed to any other verdict than that of acquittal .
Laws that are violations of justice ought to be trampled upon by every man who has the opportunity of testifying for the right against the wrong . And such would have been the result of the trial , had not the Government taken good care to pack the Jury with partisan-enemies of the accused patriot . We must explain the organised fraud which ill Ireland passes under the name of "Trial b y Jury . " The General Jurors Book of the city of Dublin is said to contain about four thousand six hundred names , of which three thousand are Roman Catholics , and sixteen hundred Protestants . From this book the Sheriff ot
Dublin is required to take a list of 150 names , out of which sre chosen Juries of twelve , to try each case brought before the Judges . From ti collection of mimes , two-thirds of which rep resent Roman Catholics , justice requires that of the 150 there should he something like 100 Catholics ; but the Sheriff , in making U p his list , out of which he knew the Jury would be selected that would try Mr Mitchel , placed thereon the names of 122 Protestants , and but twenty-eight Roman Catholics .
Mr Mitchel s counsel desired to expose the Sheriff ' s infamous conduct , and summoned Mr Monahan , the Attorney-General ' s brother , and Mr Wheeler , the Sheriff ' s Deputy , to prove tho packing of the panel . But both ' these " ( feutlemon" had left town ! Mr Mitchel thereupon demanded a postponement of the trial , that he might be enabled to find and drag these plotters into court . The Attorney-General-brether to one of the conspirator g-sliamelessly opposed the demand for a postponement ; and , of course , the worth y judges took the same side , and refused to allow cf auv delay . Other -nt-
Immolation Of The Patriot, John Mitchel....
nesses could , hoitf ver , have been taM they had volunteer ^ to prove the packing of the p anel , but the court refused to receive their evidence ! The packing system waS completed when the jury of twelve came to be struck , it appears that when the names on the panel are called , the accused is allowed to set aside twenty , but no more , whereis the counsel for the Crown are allowed to set aside as many as they please , without assigning any cause . On the arraign" I
ment of Mr Mitchel , seventy-five of the 150 answered to their names , and of these there were sixteen Catholics , the whole number of whom were set aside by the Crown Solicitor ! Not a single Catholic was permitted to be on the jury , and every Protestant suspected of holding liberal political sentiments was also excluded . The Crown set aside thirty-nine persons . As the " Nation ' has truly said— " The panel was first packed by deliberate design , and then purged by high prerogative . "
The precious twelve , selected to do the dirty work of the vilest abortion of a government that ever insulted England and outraged Ireland , prove , by their very names , their partisanship against Ireland . We believe some of them are Englishmen by birth , and nearl y the whole are English in name . Adventurers , or the descendants of adventurers in Ireland , they know nothing of " country . ' They have abandoned England , but they can regard Ire land only as a field of prey . Of course , the mere expectation of a mess of Castle pottage is sufficient to induce patriots () to vote , or give verdicts in any way desired by the oppressors of Ireland .
How often have the journals rung with sympathetic appeals for Italian and Polish patriots , tried and condemned by the Austrian and Russian myrmidons of Metternich and Nicholas . Precisely the same policy has enabled the British Government to obtain a victory over John Mitchel . Bravely and truly did the " convicted" patriot proclaim in open court that he had been crashed by PACKED JURIES ,
PARTISAN JUDGES , AND PERJURED SHERIFFS . His enemies have sentenced him to fourteen years' misery , but he has sentenced them to ETERNAL INFAMY . Wehavegivena fullreportofthisevermemorable trial , and we beg our readers to treasure up every word thereof . The speech of John Mitchel should le printed in letters of gold , and be the first lesson every true democrat should teach his children . " I have acted , " said the patriot , '' all through this business , from the first , under a strong sense of duty . I do not repent anything I have done , and I believe that the course which I have opened is only commenced . THE ROMAN WHO SAW HIS UASD BURNING TO ASHES BEFORE THE TYKANT . PROMISED THAT THREE
HUNDRED SHOULD FOLLOW OUT HIS ENTERPRISE . CAN 1 NOT PROMISE ( looking at his friends who surrounded the dock ) FOR ONE , FOR TWO , FOR THREE-AY , FOR HUNDREDS ?" Alas ! that in these degenerate days , " im « mense cheering" should be the only response , while such a man is dragged by villaingaolers to chains , and worse than death ! " 0 ! for the swords of tho olden time ! 01 for the men who bora them I ¦ When , arm ' il far right , they stood sublime , And tyrantscrouch'd before them !"
We must not omit a passing tribute to Mr Holmes , Mr Mitcliel ' s counsel . This gentleman , the father of the Irish Bar , is , we are informed , eighty-seven years of age ; a man who , according to the Morning Post , is " much esteemed for the qualities both of his head and his heart . " He boldly declared his participation in the sentiments for which his client had been condemned , and dared the vile Whigs to do their worst with their Gagging Hill . Mr Holmes has deserved well of his country .
One word moie . Until John Mitchel is restored a freeman to his freed country , his heroic wife and helpless children must have the protection , not merely of the Irish people , but also of every Englishman who , abhorring injustice though perpetrated in his own country ' s name , shares Mitch el's sentiments , and , therefore , hates Mitchel ' s persecutors . The announcement over this article will show that the proprietor of this journal has not forgotten that fce is the countryman of the expatriated hero .
In the name of the masses of England , we repudiate the infamous crimes perpetrated by the English privileged orders upon Ireland . On behalf of the millions of Great Britain , we proclaim that the name of Ireland ' s banished
son— "Shall be A watchword till the future shall ba free !"

To Lord John Russell . —That the neonta , ! , demand the Charter . P Cl ° To the Times . — -That Chartism is not d e ! Uj but is alive and stronger than ever ; and that it ( the aforesaid limes ) is the leading liar 0 f Europe . To the People of Jre / aMti . —That the work , ing men of England are the staunch friends of their Irish brethren ; and that they repaid MITCHEL a « a patriot , and his persecutors as the real traitors . To the Working Men of England . — -That the shopocracy , who crave their assistance for " further reform , '' areas ready as ever to take up bludgeons on the order of the aristocracy against the people .
To the " Specials . — That they have a good chance of getting " monkey ' s allowance- — more kicks than halfpence . " To the Government .- —That playing at soldiers to keep down a justly dissatisfied people is a costly [ folly which the state of the Exchequer by no means admits of . " Suppression i * a ^ me Which , were Lord Johnny wise , Whigs would not play at , " There is no maxim that we wish to teach the people which we cannot find in the Whi g textbook , for instance—that these violations of the constitution are expensive experiments , and as the Melbourne-Whig maxim was with reference to the Chartists : —
RUIN THEM WITH EXPENSES ! What was sauce for the goose will be very nice sauce for the gander ! " We have put down Chartism , " said the Times , three weeks ago , and now behold soldiers under arms all night—the poor old pensioners forced to " march , march again "—the valiant knights of the broomstick torn from the arms of their distracted better-halves—the police " as busy as the detil in a gale of wind " —and the magistrates sitting up all night to prevent—by the help of Mr Braid wood ' s brigade—the Chartists setting the Thames on fire ! Verily , "there is no peace for tho wicked . "

The Supremacy of the Law demonstrated"is the title { riven to this affair by tho base penny , a liner who has reported it . We suppose that lite supremacy of the Ion- demonstrated simply menus , that the hm has demonstrated the Con . stilttttoa , with all its privileges and gmicmtees , to he y . Hi'Miiuo ! The events of the last'jfew days have also dvir , oinir <
Hed;" OUR GLORIOUS CONSTITUTION . " " THE SUPREMACY OF THE LAW DEMONSTRATED . " Our glorious constitution "— "the admiration of the world , and the envy of surroundingnations (?) , " is said to guarantee to " free-born Britons" certain invaluable rights - amongst others , freedom of the press—the privilege of publicly meeting for the discussion of grievances , and the hearing arms for self-defence . All these vaunted privileges have heen completely violated within the last few davs .
rreedom of the Press . — I lie " United Irishman" has been suppressed by hrute force . The tyrannical suppression of the " United Irishman" far exceeds the worst of the acts for which Charles the Tenth was expelled from the throne of France ; and even excels in villany the blackest deeds of that prince of Whi gs , the kiched-out King of the Barricades . Freedom of Meeting . —Some ten days t \ "o Lord John Russell declared that the people were satisfied , and did not want further reform . On Monday eve last , a vast multitude peaceably paraded tbe streets of London ; their shouts fjr the " Charter" and "Mitchel , " testified that tliey did want further reform , and were
by no means satisfied with the proceedings in Dublin . The next day a police order was issued forbidding processions . The people obeyed thisorder , and on Tuesday eve contented themselves with holdings ! meeting on Clerkenwell Green . Thefollowingday out came another edict forbidding meetings ,, and on Wednesday eve , police , " specials , " pensioners , and cavalry were employed to wound and maim the people , and disperse the meeting by force . The same day enormous bodies of police , " specials , '' and soldiers—horse and foot—were employed at Manchester to prevent the people assembling to express their sympathy for the patriot Mitchel .
The right to bear Arms . — -This , besides being a " Constitutional privilege , " is said to be guaranteed by " the Bill of Rights ; " but the supposed privilege is practically an illusion . As long as the people are allowed to have guns or pikes they are not permitted to learn the use of either , under pain of Transportation as provided for in the Acts of Parliament respecting training and drilling . But they are not even allowed to possess arms except at the good pleasure of the magistracy . The accounts we publish from Bradford , in another column this
prove . We are disgusted to see Mr £ errand , whojieretofore , professed to be "the poor mans friend , ' ' busying himself in robbim--working men—according to law—of their arms , and committing them to prison , for no worse crime than that of imitating the u specials . ' It will he seen that these acts of insolent tyranny drove the people to resistance . Iu the furious conflict that ensued the bullying police and valiant "specials" came off second best ; but of course tl e p .-oplo were overpowered b y the military .
Downfall Of Finality. On Thursday Evenin...
DOWNFALL OF FINALITY . On Thursday evening , Lord John Russell announced a Bill for the Repeal of the Katepaying Clauses of the Reform Bill ! " Work a little langer !"
Parliamentary Review. Ministers Have Suf...
PARLIAMENTARY REVIEW . Ministers have suffered a succession of de « feats . The Lords have thrown out the Jewish Disabilities lijll by a majority of thirty . five , and , in spite of the opposition of the Government , have appointed a Committee to inquire into the working of the Irish Poor Law—an inquiry which , when asked for in the House of Commons by seven-eighths of the Irish Members , was successfully resisted by the Ministry . The Commons have caught the infection , and on Tuesday ni ght beat the Government in two divisions ^ on a motion of Dr Bowring for an improvement in the mode of keeping the Public Accounts , by which the real sum extracted
from the pockets of the people annually , might be shown . At present , some seven millions a-year are collected , which never find their way , either into the Exchequer or the National Balance Sheet , being absorbed b y the collectors of the taxes , and applied by them to their own . support , without passing through the Treasury . The Chancellor of the . Exchequer resisted the motion in a long but utterl y unintelligible speech . ' Your queer no meaning puzzles more than wit , " says the post , and most certainly we found the attempt to extract a meaning from a single sentence of that speech , was a labour as vain as to extract sunbeamslfvom cucumbers . Only two distinct ideas remained at its close . First , that the
motion was to be opposed . Second , profound wonder that such an addle-headed , gabbling nincompoop should be a Cabinet Minister , Chancellor of the Exchequer , and , consequently , the levier and the spender of the ta . vea of this great country . Truly » it is a lucky thing to be brother-in-law to an Earl . That is tbe true receipt for having " greatness thrust upon" you . But the spectacle , somehow , does excite uneasy sensations , and we cannot help thinking of the future fate of an
empire whose destinies are entrusted to such hands . The House divided twice ; first—upon the previous question , in which the majority against Ministers was one ; and then on the first of Dr Bowring ' s resolutions , ^ vhen it was increased to five . Members , by their cheers , seemed to be quite surprised at finding they had a will of their own , and seemed as frisky as a dog when it has first got the collar off . Like the said dog , however , { they are quite ready to be chained to the Whig kennel again .
In the case of the Irish Poor Law , the specific terms of the resolution passed , in spite of the Government , for inquiry into the single point of the rating of lessors . But virtually it will open up the whole question of the mal-administration of the Jaw by the under officials of the Whigs , who have lorded it over all the local administrators in a most approved Bashaw fashion . Whether it may not , as one of the consequences , eventuate in changes of the law , which will make it even more unfavourabl e to the poor and destitute than it is now , is another question . But there can be little doubt of one
fact , that this precious spawn of Whi g legislation is thorou ghly detested , both by those who have to pay the rates , and by those who unfortunately have to be supported b y them . ] t is a capital specimen of the foll y of attempting to govern a nation by foreign legislation , and foreign officials ; and , as Lord Stuart de Decies said ^ < ft has , in conjunction with the refusal of inquiry at the early period of the Session , made more converts to Repeal than any single cause that can he named . " It is a great blessing that Whig measures are found to be useful in any way , and that sometimes without knoiring or intending it , they fall into the mistake of doing a good action . )
1 he rejection of the Jewish Disabilities Bill is an event of more importance in itself than either of the preceding subjects , and taken in connexion with them , proves how slender the hold of the present ministry is upon the reins of Government . They , sit on the Treasury Bench , as we have very often said , merely because there are no other parties prepared to take their places ; and rule England not on account of their own strength , but in consequence of the absence of union and determination on the part of their opponents . We have throughout been favourable to
the Bill which the Lords have thrown out , and have consistently advocated it upon the broad principle of religious equality , and the right of every man to all the privileges of a citizen , so long as he performed the duties of ; i citizen . We repudiate all civil disa bilities on the ground of theological op inions , but we confess that this defeat of the Ministry gives us pleasure rather than otherwise . There cannot be a douUt that Lord J . Russell owes his seat , as a member for the City of London , solely to the implied if not direct understanding , ' that he would , as Prime Minister , exert his utmost influence to carry
this measure : to whatever cause its rejection ma ? be owing—whether to his ownlukewarmness or his weakness as a minister—the result is equally damaging to him ; and we venture to predict that this is the last Parliament in which l » e . will sit as the representative for the CUy ot Londoii . He and his party may try to , get « P a spurious agitation in bis favour on tfie strength of the rejection ; of the bill , but the people are not to be led off the true scent by such a mere red herring . Thoy have already hail sufficient proof that his administration 1 * only powerful for evil ; and as for his initOf * turns , they may , like other good intention ^ fl ° to pave that place which is nameless to i ?» ' polite . 1 The electors of the City have takm the mat *
