CLERKENWELL . Fan > _AY . —Attempted Suicide . —Selmsg _Poisox . — Sarah Laurie , a well-looking young woman , was charged with having attempted to poison herself . —Police-constable Philips , 58 G , deposed that having been informed the prisoner had taken poison on Wednesday afternoon last , he went to Coppice-row , where he found her with an empty phial in her hand , labelled " poison . " She seemed exceedingly depressed , and fast approaching to a state of stupefaction . Witness asked her what she had done ? and she exclaimed , " Oh , let me die J" Seeing that the poison was " "beginning to operate , he took her to the station-house at once , where Mr . Taylor , the police _rargeon _, with the aid of a stomach-pump , removed the - poison from her stomach , after which she was conveyed
to the hospital , where she has since lain . — .-Elizabeth Atlow deposed that he saw the prisoner standing in the middle of the _street - _^ _w-ling _^ reen-lane , on Wednesday evening . She was staring wildly about her , and blood was fast issuing from her arm , which appeared to have been recently cut After a moment ' s pause , witness saw her put a phial to her month and drink off its contents . She theu gave information to police-constable Philips . — Mrs . Lumley , confectioner , Exmouth-street , deposed thai theprisoner lived with her as servant , and gave her an excellent character .

Broughton said he would have hertaken tare of until she could be placed under proper control
WORSHIP STREET . MosDiT . —Assault os the Police . —Yesterday a eturdv beggar , of determined aspect , named Daniel Darellin * was placed at thc bar before Mr . Broughton , charged with having committed a murderous assault upon several police constables of the H division , one of whom is so seriously injured as to leave but faint hopes of his recovery . It appeared from the evidence that about seven o ' clock on Ihe preceding evening the prisoner entered the White Hart public house , in Wentworth-street , Whitechapel , and shortly after got into altercation with a man named Crawley , whom he challenged to fight hhn , aud ivas about to attack , when one of the bystanders cautioned Crawley to avoid his antagonist , as the latter had a knife concealed in the sleeve of his coat . Observing " the pointed end of a knife prctruding from the prisoners cuff , Crawley immediately called a policeman , and gave the prisoner into
custody ; but _Davelbn declared he wonld not be taken , and offered the most detennined resistance , in the course of which the knife dropped onthe ground , and was carried off by a woman . A large mob of the worst characters in tbat low district speedily collected and assailed the officer , who was placed in such jwpard y that the landlord of the public-house , who came to his aid , had the greatest difficulty iu keeping them off with a bayonet until the arrival of further assistance . Two other constables then came up , aud by their united exertions they succeeded in getting the prisoner some distance on towards the police-station ; bat he then suddenly turned round , expressed his deteruinKi & mto go no further , and successively dealt each of thi * officers such terrific kicks onthe lower part of their person- - , that one of them ( Miller , II 113 ) was instantly strotcJic-i upon the pavement in a state of total insensibititr , aud was afterwards carried home upon a stretcher .
Thc _prisuner continued fighting iu a most furious manner , dealing blows and kicks about him in all directions , and auer inflicting numerous injuries of a similar description upon other constables that came up , was at length overpowered and lodged in the police-station . A certificate from Mr . Mears , the division surgeon , describing the dangerous condition of two of the offieers , Miller and Lloyd , was produced by Inspector Karris , who stated that he had seen the men that morning , and that one of them was so serious !** injured as to leave but slight hopes of his recovery , while the other was in a condition which would , it was feared , render him a cripple for the rest of his life . In answer vj the charge the prisoner , with the characteristic _wbh-e of a beggar , exhibited a bandage round one of his arms , and stated that the ' police had treated him with sucli bni-auity thathis wrist had "been fractured by oue of their blows , and that one of the witnesses against him ( a man named Connor ) was a convicted thief , and that uo credence , therefore , should be given to his testimony . In answer to this , Inspector Harris said that the prisoner bad con-pained at the station about his arm , and tbat in
_couseiuience it had been examined by the surgeon , who pronounced it to be perfectly sound in every respect ; and with regard to the witness Connor , although it was _cert-iiuly true that he had been connected with a gang of li . _jo = _elirt-aters , hc had upon this occasion rendered the moil important assistance to the police , and deserved the _highest commendation for his courage . —Mr . Broughton said the evidence clearly proved that two of the constables were in die greatest danger from the injuries they had received from the prisoner , and be should therefore order him to be brought up again next week , by which time something yoritive as to their condition might be ascertained . —William Chadwick , another beggar , was then chai-geu with attempting to rescue the first prisoner from _custody , and threatening the life of one of the witnesses . While _I'zvshm was being taken to tbe station , theprisoner made several violent attempts to rescue him . and at that rime escaped , but afterwards waylaid a witness named Crawley , and drawing a knife threatened to stab hiin , ••¦• on wliich he was given into custody . The prisoner in _; _enw :. l ta-nis denied thc charge , and was also ordered to be "bmushx up again next week .
Tuesday . — iMPoaTAKr to _Hocsekeepees . — Sarah Partes-, a well-dressed widow , attended before Mr . Bingham , upon an adjourned information preferred by Mr . Thos . Spencer , a surgeon of Stoke-Newington , under the Act llji George IL , cap . 19 , which _chai-ged her with _barins-fraudulentijandclandestindy removed and secreted a quantity of household furniture to evade its seizure for rent , wuereby she had incurred a penalty of donble the value of ihe goods so removed , or six months'imprisonment is . the House of Correction . The goods had been seized , bnt the man in possession was induced toleave , and the goods were removed at one o ' clock in the morning . Mr . Bingham said he should avail himself of the power of commutation vested in him by tiie 33 th section of tiie Police Act , and award her one month's imprisonment in the House of Correction , with hard labour .
LAMBETH . _Tbesuat . _—CaciLTr to Animals . —John Gordon , a ourneyman in the service of Mr . Eaton , butcher , of Mooreplace , " _ircstmiuster-road , appeared before Mr . Henry , on a summons charging him with wantonly and cruelly illusing a bullock . The case was gone into at considerable length : aud , after hearing the evidence , Mr . Henry adjudged the defendant to pay a fine of 30 s ., or to undergo thirty _uays'iiJiprisonnient
MAHLBOROFGlf-STHEET . _Mose "Aristocratic _Mo-tAtrrr . "—On _ifondsy a welldressed young woman left an infant , with a letter , on the step of the door of _No . 74 , Lower Grosvenor-street , a house occupied at present by the Hon . William Lucas Rous , having previously knocked and rung at the door . When tile butler opened the door , and found what had been deposited there , he made the circumstance known to Mr . Boos , to whom the letter was directed . The letter was as follows : — "Mr . Rous , —I have had no answer to the letter of yesterday , therefore I leave jou your child . The last thing I did for him I gave him the breast , and then fell on my knees and implored Heaven to protect him . If my feeble limbs will support me so far , I am now going to No . 40 , TothflLstreet . I have eaten the last piece of bread , and drank the last draught of water that shall enter my ljps till I ha _* e seen both him and ycu . I die in peace with yon and all the world . May God my Saviour protect my child . _—^ _Sabah _Folches . "—A police-cons tablewasseutfor , and the child and the letter directed to be taken to the
workhouse . The infant was received aud carefully attended to , and Lacy , the messenger , was despatched to make inquiries after the mother . Lacy with great difficulty at length obtained a clue to the mother , and succeeded in apprehending her on Tuesday , after which , by the direction of the board , he brought her to this court-When asked by Mr . Maltby why she had left the child at tiie residence of Mr . Rons , she said she was ready to swear that Mr . Rous was the father . Shehadbeen in the service of Mrs . Rous as lady ' s-maid , at Worsted-house , _Jforfolk . She was seduced by Mr . Rons , and the result of the intercourse was the child , now ten months old , wliich she had left on the step of Mr . Rous ' s door . Mr . Rous had given her money to cover the expenses of her confinement , and for the support ofher child , but recently he had withdrawn all < , u _*>*> ort , and she had been obliged to travel up from the country to take the only step in her power iu order to
compel the father to do something f « r his offspring . —Mr . - Jab-by recommended Lacy to take tiie young woman back » ihe _' wtirHiouse , and th _/ ncst day to make application to Ir . Rous on the subject—On Wednesday Lacy informed r . Mahby that he had called on Mr . Rous , and Mr . Rous ad refused to do anything fur the child , on the plea that _r-r _. a _:-cyttbefather . * Lacy added that the overseers were ¦ _illing to leave the case iu the hands of the magistrate , so ir as concerned the desertion . —Mr . Maltb y inquired _thether it was tlic desire of thc parish authorities to press ' he charge of desertion against theyoung woman ?—Lacy . aid they had no desire , under aU the circumstances , to press that charge . The young woman and Mr . Rous ' s solicitor werc in court , if the magistrate chose to go on with the case . —Mr . Maltby said tbe regular course was to proceed by . summons against the alleged father . —Lacy then , to behalf of the young woman , applied for and obtained a summons for Tuesday against Mr . Rous .

Shockq-G Accident At Nonisahau. —Nottisg...
Shockq-g Accident at _NonisaHAU . _—Nottisghaji , Mosdat . —Several hfgaly-respectable families in this town have been plunged _intrastate of distress by a shocking accident which took place here to-day . A very fine young man named George Fish , of the firm of Fish and Sons , builders , had been amusing himself by firing at a mark in the back premises . At noon , the workmen went to dinner , requesting Mr . J . Fish to lock the doors , in case he retired before their return . On entering the workshops after dinner , the men found Mr . Fish lying between two of the benches , on a heap of shavings , and in an almost lifeless state . There , was a pool of blood around him , and on lifting him up they were
horrorstricken at the spectacle . While in the act of charging his gun , he incautiously put en a detonating cap , and neglecting to secure it from going off , so soon as he attempted to force down the wadding the gun went off , and the ramrod passed through his upper jaw , on the left side , going along the nasal organs , and protruding through the top of his skull , so as to make about nine inches of the ramrod visible above his head . Such was the force with which it was driven that two men , in attempting to extricate it , broke the rod close to where it passed in at the jaw ; and it was ultimately forced out by means of a heavy mallet . During this process the shrieks of the poor fellow were heard a long way off . Surgical aid was instantly called in , but there are no hopes of his recovery .
Horrible Attempt at Murder oh Mutilation . — At the Bronisgrove petty sessions , a shocking instance of the effects of jealousy came before the bench on Wednesday . It appears that Israel Harris , a labourer , at Stoke Prior , who is naturally of an irascible disposition , and who , since Christmas last , has been constantly twitting his wife with infidelity to him , on the night of Sunday last committed an assault on her , which for atrocity we can scarcely think has ever been surpassed . The circumstance ' s will be best conveyed in theevidenceofthe unfortunate woman herself , as taken before G . F . Iddins , on the following day . She deposed—About half-past 9 o'clock last night I went up stairs to put the children to bed . Mv husband followed me in a few minutes and struck
me several blows on the head , and knocked me down on the bed . He held me by the shoulder , and kept beating me en the head with one hand . I tried to get away from him , but eould not . At last I struggled and got off on the floor , and he knocked my head against the side of the bed . He kept beating me on the head , neck , breast , and shoulders , violently ; ho jolted my head on the floor with as much violence as he could . He caught hold of one of my legs and pulled me along thc floor , and said he would tear my inside out . He then jumped with his knees on the lower part of my bowels with great violence two or three times . ( The evidence here was of a most revolting character , setting forth that the prisoner , after making a false accusation to her , and while
keeping her on the floor , with the most fiendish barbarity , ripped her up , and a gosh of blood flowed from the wound . ) Prisoner then left her and went down stairs , but presently returned and pulled her along thc floor into the other room , and asked her if he had given her enough ; he then shut the door and went down , after which the poor woman crept to the bed with her hands and knees , where she lay till Mi * . Fletcher , surgeon , arrived ; she closed her evidence by saying , " I am very ill , and I do think in my breast I shall not recover . " This morning ( Tuesday ) it was stated to the bench that thepoor woman was somewhat better , though it is far from
probable that she will recover . Under these circumstances the bench thought it best to remand the case till Thursday next , it was stated tbat Harris had five children . Thc immediate cause of the assault it would seem , was this : —Prisoner had been to church , and on coming home he found a man and his wife paying a visit to his ( prisoner's ) wife . This was the man of whom he had been jealous , although he is a married man . The parties all drank together , and it was after t !; c departure of the man and his wife that the assault took place . It was the prisoner himself who first went to the nsighboui-s , and said that his wife was very ill . —Worcester Journal .
Sdicide from Hcvgerford Suspension Bridge . — On Tuesday morning , about three o ' clock , a man of apparent respectability was observed by the tollkeepers to deliberately spring from the centre of the bridge into the river . A boat with some persons therein was passing at the time , but from evident alarm the parties rowed away ; and although boats Eut off from the shore , no trace ofthe deceased could e discovered , who , it is supposed , was carried down the tide , which was then ebbing rapidly . Mceder of as Officer axd Eight Mex of the Wasp by lire Crew of a Slater . —Amost distressing circumstance has occurred in the African squadron . The Wasp , 18 , Commander S . H . Usher , took a prize wliich was sent to Sierra Leone * to be condemned .
On her way this prize fell in with and took another slaver ; the lieutenant in command still keeping charge ofthe first vessel , put a midshipman , named iTarmer , with eight men , into the other . The vessels then sepan d . Unfortunately , Mr . Harmer allowed a strong _--ry of the slave crew to remain out of irons , and ac night they rose and murdered every Englishman ' ¦•* board ; and when daylight broke , exchanged signals with and fired atthe other prize , and then bore _htr away . In a day or two afterwards she fell in with the Star , 6 , Commander Dunlop , who took her , and brought the whole ofher murderous piratical crew to Ascension . The villains willshortly be sent to England in the Heroine , 6 , Lieut . Commander Foote , and the Rapid . 10 , Commander Earle .
Attempted Suicide at the Ixfaxtrt Barracks , Windsor . —On Thursday a soldier belonging to the 2 nd Battalion ofthe Coldstream Guards , stationed at Windsor , attempted to commit suicide by s hooting himself in his barrack-room . It appears that the voung man , whose name is Gemerston , and who is not more than 16 years of age , formed one of the band ofthe regiment , but , in consequence of some misconduct , he was reduced to the corps of drummers . This evidently preved upon his mind and induced him to
attempt the crime of self-murder . Shortly after the return of the battalion from the park , on Thursday morning , the report of a musket was heard in his room , upon entering which the young man was found lying on the floor , with the discharged piece by his side , to the trigger of which was attached a cord to enable him to fire it off with his foot . The ball , which was discovered in the wall of the room , had fortunately not taken effect . The man was taken to the black bole ; and an inquiry being instituted , he was yesterday sent away from the regiment .
Fatal _Accidext is Portsmouth _Docktard . —On Thursday evening , at half-past six , a labourer employed by Messrs . Baker and Son , contractors for erecting au iron roof iu Portsmouth Dockyard , was getting up some sheers , when he fell from a great height , and , his brains being dashed out , he expired on fiie spot .

House Of Lords, Tuesday, June 3, The Lor...
HOUSE OF LORDS , Tuesday , June 3 , The Lord Chancellor took his seat on the woolsack at five o ' clock . On the motion of Lord Brougham , the SmaU Debts Bill went through committee pro forms .
_MAVNOOTH BILL . The adjourned debate on the second reading of the Maynooth College bill was resumed by the Earl of Hardwicxb , who admitted that a strong feeling had been raised against the measure , which , however , it was somewhat difficult to understand , for it involved no new priciple , and only extended to Ireland those measures which had already been adopted in many of the colonies of this country . He was friendly to the _endowmentof the Roman Catholic Church in Ireland . Athough it had been called an antagonist Church , its endowment might tend to strengthen the position ofthe Protestant Established Church , even if the fondsforthatpurpose were derived from the ecclesiastical revenues of those 151 parishes ,
amounting to £ 58 , 000 per annum , in which no Protestants were to be found . He was opposed to any inquiry into the system pursued at Maynooth ; he gave no spiritual sanction to its dogmas ; indeed there was much in them that without offence he must say he abhorred , but he hoped by raising the standard f education at Maynooth to make those educated there repudiate many of those absurd doctrines and opinions wliich men of taste and learning must disown . The Earl of Carnarvon considered it the duty of Parliament to maintain the Protestant Church in Ireland ; but it was impossible to deny that it formed the most anomalous , and therefore the most endangered , part oi our Irish polity . But if that establish
ment were te be shaken by the mere breath of toleration and kindness , having ns strength in itself , it must be , not of God , but of men . The question now was , whether the spiritual instructors of the great body ofthe Irish people should be well or ill educated ?—whether they should be for or against us ?— - whether they should be attached or hostile to British interests ? They had already sanctioned the principle of appointing Soman Catholic chaplains to prisons and workhouses ; and if they refused their approval of this measure , their Lordships ought not onl y to retrace their steps in that respect , out to withdraw the grant to Maynooth altogether , and repudiate the kinder policy so long pursued in our colonies . He vindicated the priests from the charge
of disaffection , and commended them tor tne part they had taken in times of danger to preserve the loyalty of the Irish people . There could be no assured safety for our institutions in Ireland , unless we not only consulted Irish interests , but Irish sympathies too . He hailed this measure as a good omen , and he sincerely trusted that a just and equal policy would efface the wrongs of past misrule in feat country . The Earl of Winodilsea reprobated the measure as the most deadly blow ever aimed at Protestantism —our national Christianity—the foundation of our long-cherished civil and religious liberties , and the true source of England's greatness . Were these to be cast away for the purpose of conciliating an ultramontane priesthood ? If their lordships passed this
measure in spite of the respectful remonstrances of between 1 , 200 , 000 and 1 , 600 , 000 people of this country , they would forfeit the confidence and respect of the nation . He protested against this bill as a national endowment of Popery , and in contravention of the oath taken by her Majesty at her coronation . He reiterated the charge that anti-social , disloyal , and intolerant principles were taught at Maynooth , and called special attention to the fact that in France they were making laws to exclude the Jesuits from ail interference with education , while the Parliament of England was insanely throwing it into their hands . He concluded by solemnly entreating their lordships to reject this measure , which he warned them , in the excited state of Protestant feeling , must
produce an outbreak , not in Ireland , but in this country . The Marquis of [ _SNoRMANBr . reminded the house that they were now legislating for 7 , 000 , 000 Roman Catholics , whom they could not help continuing Catholic . Though Protestantism had done much for England , yet after all the ingenuity of Legislatures and the severity of Executives could do , in three centuries nothing had been accomplished by Protestantism in Ireland , because it had not been in accordance with the sincere convictions ofthe Yast majority of the people . They must judge of the tree by its fruits . There had been no complaints whatever of the moral conduct ofthe students educated at Maynooth ; and as to those whom they instructed , was it nothing to say the Irish were the most honest ,
the most modest , and the most temperate people ? It was said thc Catholic priests had stimulated crime in Ireland ; on the contrary , he must bear his testimony tliat no body of men had ever exerted themselves with more energy and success in detecting and preventing crime than the Catholic priests . It was true they had often expressed themselves strongly , but what did their Lordships say who heard last night the speech ofthe Bishop of Cashel with reference to vehement language ? The noble Marquis strongly condemned the spirit of that right rev . prelate's address , and read an extract from a charge said to have been delivered by the Bishop of Cashel , in which some very vituperative expressions occurred . The Bishop of Cashel declared the entire
document to be a false and impudent fabrication . The charge had been printed and circulated at the time ; he should send a copy of it to the noble Marquis tomorrow , and advised Mm to read a portion of it to their Lordships the next time he was in want of a speech . The Marquis of Normanbv explained that the document he had quoted purported only to be a report written by a gentleman who heard the charge . For himself and those with whom he acted , he would say , they gave a humble , sincere , and he trusted an effectual , support to the policy of which he hoped tbis was no isolated measure . The Archbishop of Dublin had often felt and expressed that the system of education at Maynooth
was imperfect—scandalously imperfect ; but it never occurred to him that , wishing for its improvement , he should be considered inconsistent . It they gave the Roman Catholic priests the best education they were prepared to receive , one great evil would be cured . He protested , on the part of many of the most sincere , best informed , conscientious , and active , though not the most clamorous , of Mb clergy , that they were not to be held indifferent to their own faith on account of the perhaps mistaken toleration and indulgence they might snow to that of others . He claimed no jurisdiction over the Roman Catholics , although he had spoken and written against their
errors ; his _ duty __ was to drive out erroneous and strange opinions in his own Church , and no one on the episcopal bench had exerted himself more assiduously and energetically than lie had publicly to ceil _, auro those who held the principles of one Church and the emoluments of another . He avowed liimself the advocate of expediency in this matter , and he denied that expediency and duty were at variance with each other . He believed the bill , though it might not satisfy agitators , would do much good in Ireland . Lord De Ros supported the bill , and stated , with reference to the doctrines taught at Maynooth , on the authority of the head of that college , that he was opposed to the agitation for Repeal .
The Bishop of Exeter insisted that the recluse mode of education practised at Maynooth was wholly inconsistent with the growth of manly character . During the seven years the students were shut up to their superiors in rank or station , and could not , except occasionally in the vacations , even take a walk in the country by themselves . They were mere slaves , and the only consolation they had was , that at the end of their servitude they were to go forth , not as the ministers , but as the representatives of their God . They were educated as spiritual despots , and they became furious agitators , unfit to be the guides ofthe people . _^ Instead of ono great monastic establishment , he wished , in addition to the bill in
another place for founding three academical institutions in Ireland , there were a fourth , or rather , thc one branch in connection with each of those institutions , in which a liberal education might be given to Ruman Catholic priests , with a proper system of disci p line , consistent with fair opportunities of mixing with the gentry and other educated youths of thc country . They would thus create in Ireland a body of priests such as they had _inthis country . The present measure would perpetuate a curse in Ireland . It would be easy before a committee of inquiry to prove that intolerant and anti-social doctrines were taught at Maynooth , of which he cited various instances .
Lord Brougham felicitated the opponents of this bill who had spoken before the Bishop of Exeter on the remarkably discrepant support given to their amendment by that right rev . prelate , who , strongly as hc was opposed to Maynooth , had yet no objection to the establishment of four colleges , where , in addition to the teaching of science and letters to lavpupils , there should be ecclesiastical seminaries for the express purpose of fitting forth Roman Catholic priests on their mission for propagating Popish errors Let the pictures of Maynooth , its defective police , habits , discipline , and education be asunexaggerated as they might be , the real question was how those evils should be remedied ? The system of visitation prescribed by this bill furnished an effective cure for
those mischiefs . He admitted the errors of the Romish Church , and the evil tendencies politicallv of the policy engrafted on the Catholic system . Intolerance was not confined to the Romish Church , or popes or priests . Just in proportion as any Church was armed ivith secular power b y an alliance with the State , was its tendency to persecute other sects . Even the Anglican Church " had its minatory service . The Dissenters were the loudest in their opposition to this bill ; but had the Independents and the Calvinists no persecuting doctrines ? John Calvin was himself author of the most elaborate treatise on the propriety of putting heretics to death ; and had , by the most atrocious proceedings , got _Servetus condemned and burnt for being suspected of Sooinian or Arian doctrines . This
House Of Lords, Tuesday, June 3, The Lor...
was no question _tf conscience , but of policy and expediency . The Government had been most unjustly and heedlessly calumniated in reference to this measure . It was a pure anachronism to allege that tear of America had counselled it ; for "the message of peace" was sent to Ireland before the Oregon question was referred to by Sir R . Peel . He cordially approved that policy which tended to allay agitation in Ireland , agreeing with the Prime Minister in thinking that agitation could not be put down by force until it broke out into open violence , which that right hon . gentleman had triumphantly quelled . The popularity which followed great actions was infinitely more precious than that which was run after ; and if the Government performed such actions , he assured them they should receive that applause . The adjournment of the debate until "Wednesday was then put and agreed to .
Wednesday , June 4 . ¦ Their lordships met at five o ' clock . the _AnJouauEn oebath on the maynooth bill . The debate was resumed by tbe Earl of _Clancarti , who supported the amendment with the view that the doctrines taught at Maynooth might be made to harmonise , which at present they did not , with the institutions ofthe country . He praUod the course pursued by the Catholic peers , from whom no proposition hostile to the Protestant Church had emanated . They strictly adhered to the obligations they undertook on their admission to the house under the Act of 1829 , and every measure brought forward since that period , injurious to the Established Church , had originated ivith Protestants . The Duke of Cleveland regretted being obliged to differ from many of those with whom he had been in the habit of usually acting , but he felt liimself called upon by a sense of duty to support the bill which recognised no new principle whatever .
Earl Spencer thought it only fair to her Majesty ' s Government , as well as to those with whom he formerly acted , that every one who had occupied a prominent position in pnblic life should , entertaining tbe opinions he did , openly avow those opinions , and thus by sharing , dilute the burst of disapprobation which this measure had called forth against its advocates . Itwas for this reason , and not from any hope ofbeing able to throw any new light npon thc subject , tbat he thought it right to intrude himself upon their lordships' attention to give his most cordial support to thc bill , which , however , h 6 hoped would be only the precursor of ulterior measures . The Bishop of Norwich said the measure had his cordial and sincere approbation , considering it as a religious measure associated with justice and equity , and a Christian measure aa carrying out the principle of doing to others as we should wish tliat others should do UHtO us _.
The Earl of Morning-ton thought thismeasure the first step of all that could be adopted with the view of conciliating the great Catholic body of Ireland . Lord Colchester opposed the bill on the ground that it was notright that the funds ofa Protestant state should be applied to the maintenance of such an institution as that of Maynooth . Lord Montgagle considered the measure as the most important which had been presented to Parliament since the Emancipation Act of 18 * 29—if not since the union ; and he bailed it as a proof that all parties were at length united in the wish to do justice to Ireland . The noble lord dwelt strongly on the fact that this country had endowed Mahomedan Churches at Calcutta and Benares , aud asked if they would be less considerate to their fellow Christians and _coantrymen in Ireland . The Bishop of St . David ' s supported the bill . -
_TheEarlofCHARLEVitLB asserted tho impossibility of reconciling Mr . O'ConneU ' s conduct at the Repeal Association with the oath which he took the previous year as Lord Mayor of Dublin , and argued at considerable length against the measure ofthe Government , contending that Maynooth was a Jesuit college , under the orders of Jesuits ; that many of the pupils had been received into the Society ofthe Sacred Heart , contrary to a clause in' the Catholic Belief Bill , and that therefore the inquiry a 6 keii for was necessary . The noble lord concluded by charging the Government with negligence in not affording sufficient protection to the inhabitants of Dublin on the occasion of the recent display made in honour of Mr . O'Connell in that city .
Lord Staniev said _fjiat the assumption of want of caution or care on the part of the Government was altogether gratuitous . In fact , every precaution was made by the Irish authorities , and nothing occurred which could render any one amenable to justice for any violation of the law on the occasion referred to . With respect to the introduction of pupils into the society of the Jesuits , it was a misdemeanor , nnd the parties were liable to banishment . The law was therefore open to be appealed to , instead of resorting to a vague inquiry leading to no useful result . He could not see that the endowment of the Catholic priesthood must necessarily follow the endowment of Maynooth . He saw great difficulties in the way of any such endowment , but he frankly confessed that those
difficulties were by no means of a religious character . The noble lord concluded an able speech by saying thathe had no hope that the bill would satisfy the fauatical firebrands in the Catholic Church , still less the political agitator , whose trade it was calculated to destroy , but it would conciliate a people whose worst enemies never charged them with ingratitude ; and if even , owing to agitators , the appearance of ingratitude should still remain , it would ere long be disarmed by kindness and peace , and contentment would be restored to tho country .

House Of Commons, Tuesday, June 3. The H...
HOUSE OF COMMONS , Tuesday , June 3 . The house sat at four o ' clock . Mr . Hum * moved an address to her Majesty , praying her to grant a suitable pension to Sir Henry Pottiuger , in reward for his eminent public services . The hon . member reviewed these services , and complained that , in leaving them unrewarded , the Government * was acting contrary to the wishes ofa vast _majority of the commercial men of the country . Lord Sandon seconded the motion , and in doing so passed an eloquent eulogium on Sir H . Pottinger . Sir J . C . _Hobhouse could not forbear taking part in the debate , because the official station which he had formerly held had made him specially acquainted with the distinguished ability and noble
disinterestedness in the cause of his country displayed on every occasion b y Sir Henry Pottinger , whose extraordinary services in China deserved an extraordinary reward . Sir Robert Peei ,, fully concurring in all the praise given to Sir Henry Pottinger , said , it might be supposed from Mr . Hume ' s speech that thc Government had withheld from that gallant officer some distinction which it was in its power to confer . So far was this from being the case , that the Crown had already granted him all the honorary distinctions it could bestow . With regard to the pension prayed for , the'Crown had no power to grant it , owing to a resolution of the House pressed on it by Mr . Hume himself , which prohibited any grant for diplomatic services , unless the recipient had been engaged ten years in active service . It was very dangerous , when well-merited claims were daily
made upon the Government , that a precedent should be established for such appeals to the Crown ; and he thought , as a general rale , that public services were best rewarded by a continuance of employment when the servants of the public were in good health . StiU , as this was an extraordinary case , he was ready to take the responsibility on himself of advising her Majesty to make the proposed provision for Sir H . Pottinger . _liord John Russell thought there was no ground for reproaching the Government in this matter , and gave his cordial support to the determination expressed by Sir R . Peel . Lord _pALMBnsiox also testified his satisfaction at the course pursued by the right hon . baronet , and hoped that Sir H . Pottinger might long retain his present health for the service ofhis country . Mr . Hume denied that he had any intention of saying anything personally offensive to Sir R . Peel ; and the motion was unanimously agreed to .
Mr . Ward then moved for a select committee to inquire whether there are any peculiar burdens specially affecting the landed interest of this country , or any peculiar exemptions enjoyed by that interest , and to ascertain their nature and extent . The hon . gentleman , in the course of his arguments , asserted that it was necessary to have an inquiry in order to expose this the last fallacy behind which the agriculturists entrenched themselves—in order to clear the ground for the motion which would be subsequently brought fornard by Mr . _Yillfers for the repeal of the Corn Law .
Mr . S . Hebberi opposed the motion as unnecessary , contending that the extreme partisans of free trade were just as wrong as the extreme protectionists , and that the Government was correct in keeping the middle course , affording considerable latitude to the nianutacturers , _v-Mle protecting the agriculturists from very sudden and- great changes in the value of agricultural produce . Mr . Cobden contended that there were no peculiar burdens on the landed interest , but that there were a great many peculiar exemptions in its favour from the ordinary burden of taxation to which the other interests oi the country were exposed .
House Of Commons, Tuesday, June 3. The H...
Mr . Newdioate entered into a variety of statistics in order to prove that the land was exposed to peculiar burdens not pressing to the same extent on the other classes of the community . After some observations from Mr . V . Smith , Sir John Tyrell , and Dr . Bowring , the house divided , and Mr . Ward ' s motion was negatived by a _majority of 182 to 109 . Wednesdat , June 4 . There not being forty members present in the house at four o ' clock , the Speaker adjourned it to Thursday . Thcksdat _, June 5 . The principal business was the Scotch Bankini System , which , after a preliminary discussion , was carried into committee , and after a desultory _diacuision , several ofthe clauses were agreed to . Fridat _, June 6 .
Lord Ashley moved for leave to bring in two bills for the regulation of the cure and treatment of insane persons in England and Wales . The noble lord , in an able speech , enforced the necessity for affording * greater protection than now existed to the lunatics in all parts of the _nountry , those residing out of as well as in lunatic asylums , and hoped that his bills would meet with no opposition in their progress through Parliament . Sir J . _Geahajj : , with great satisfaction , seconded the motion . The speech of the noble lord last session would not readily be forgotten by those who had heard it , and had convinced the Government that it was a subject their attention to which should be no longer deferred ; and , accordingly , during the recess he had , in conjunction with the noble lord , considered the subject , and the result of their labours was then before the house . The bills of the noble lord wcre not exactly Government bills , but they were brought in with the sanction of the Government , which had resolved to support them .
Lord Clements said that the bill showed how differently they were disposed to legislate for England and for Ireland . Sir J . Gbaham said that a similar measure was prepared for Ireland . Mr . Pox Maule highly eulogised the philanthropy of the noble lord , and suggested that a commission should be appointed to report on the state of lunatics in Scotland , all of the asylums in that country being supported by voluntary contribution . He thought , as to legislation , the extension . of the present measure to Scotland would do all that was requisite . The Lord _Ad-vocaii-s said the subject bad attracted considerable attention in Scotland , but hc wished to see the progress of the present bills before framing one for Scotland . After a few observations from Mr . G . Strickland , Mr . Henley , aud Mr . Brotherton _, leave was given to bring in the bills . The house then adjourned .
Horrible Case.—Another Private Investiga...
Horrible Case . —Another Private Investigation . —When we received a communication revealing the following facts , which , we believe , are beyond contradiction , we asked ourselves this question" Do we live in a Christian country ? " So far back as Sunday , the 6 th of April—the _hushiug up process was so effectual as to prevent us from hearing of this affair before last week—a man , named William Gregg , was arrested in Park-street for being drunk and assaulting Seijeant Devine of the B division . On this charge he was locked up in the Lad-lane station-house , suddenly from which , having been taken ill , he had to be removed to Baggot-street
hospital , where he remained until the 24 th of the same month . He was then brought before the magistrates of College-street office to answer the charge of the serjeant , but set at liberty in consequence of having made this awful disclosure : — " That onthe 6 th oi April he was passing along Park-street , accompanied by Jobn Morrison , between four and five o ' clock p . m . ; that they went into the School of Medicine ( to light a pipe ) , where there were a number of students , who asked him to drink whhkey , and after having drunk a good deal he was conducted by them to the dissecting-room , where they gave him more whiskey and made him drunk ; they then caused him to sing and dance , and play cards on the body of a dead man ; that they * * and forced
partof the liver ofa coxpse into his mouth , beat him severely with the limbs of the dead bodies , and threw him out , when he was discovered by Serjeant Devine . " Gregg further asserted that his companion , Morrison , was also beaten by the students , but beinga teetotaller did not drink any of the whiskey . The police traced out Morrison and produced him before the magistrates , when hc fully corroborated the statement of Gregg in all its hideous particulars . What course should have been pursued by the magistrates under such circumstances ? Verily , to take the informations of Gregg and Morrison against the students , and lay the onus of producing them upon the police . But not so did the Solons of the Collegestreet bench act I Betraying a leniency for wretches ,
who—if a tithe of the above statement be true —must be a libel upon human nature , they wrote to Sir-James Murray and Dr . Carlile to bring forward the students of Park-street School of Medicine in order to have the case investigated ! Of course so polite a method of dealing with beasts in the shape of men was properly appreciated—Dr . Carlile waited privately upon Mr . TyndalJ , and the matter was dropped . We trust , hotvever , that the Exec-stive will not allow so grave aiid suspicious an affair to be thus cushioned , and that immediate steps will be taken to have the criminals brought to justice , and a lesson read to the police magistrates , whose practices have now become perfectly intolerable . I We give the above statement from the
Dublin World of Saturday last , just as it appeared in that paper . It is evident that something still more beastly and abominable than what is detailed above is known to the writer in the World , but properly suppressed by him as being too horrible to appear in print . Our sole object in giving publicity to this enormity is to aid the Dublin World in its efforts to bring to ' justice the miscreants who have been guilty of the abominable outrage alleged against them . We must , however , take this opportunity of protesting against the infamous calumnies against England and Englishmen to which certain Irish journalists lend
themselves . We allude not to the conductors of the IForZii , but to those of the Nation and Freeman ' s Journal , who have for their imitators all the smaller fry of Repeal quill-drivers , in such papers as the Belfast Vindicator , Drogheda Argus , & c . If a murder is committed in this country , forthwith the appalling fact is heralded in the Irish journals as " another barbarous English murder . " If some case of ruffianism occurs , itis announced as " another specimen of English brutality . " If a case of rape or seduction comes before our courts , it is forthwith introduced to the Irish reader as a " horrible case of _Exxglish immorality . " So long as the "Liberator "—
" The saviour of the nation not yet saved , " confines himself to humbugging his countrymen and countrywomen with his precious blarney , that they are the bravest , ablest , most intelligent , most _industrious , most beautiful , and most virtuous men and women on the face of the earth—in fact , the only "true Caucasian breed , " and that tlieir countiy is the greenest in all creation ; so long as King Dan thus says and sings , Englishmen have no cause for complaint ; on the contrary , they have much food for mirth in these miserable egotistical displays . But when thc said King Dan belches his foul-mouthed calumnies against the women and the men of England , and is imitated in his disgusting diatribes by his wretched sycophants , the Repeal press-gang ,
Englishmen arc bound to protest against their odious imputations . We protest against those imputations , not because they can harm Englishmen or Englishwomen , but because we hold in abhorrence the vile object tor which those calumnies are fabricatedthat object being the prejudicing of the people of Ireland against the people of this country , and so to keep the two nations eternal enemies and slaves , instead of being as they would be , did they once understand each other , brethren and freemen . Were we to act in the diabolical spirit which appears to actuate the rabid writers in the Nation and Freeman ' s Journal , we should retaliate upon Irishmen by charging the crimes committed iu Ireland upon thc Irish people generally , and as being damnatory to the Irish character . This is what the writers iu the above papers do with respect to England . Would it bejust
to Irishmen—would it be in accordance with truth , that we should head the above shocking statement with the words "Horrible Irish brutality ?" or "Diabolical specimen of Irish immorality V or " Infamous case of Irish bestiality ? " Yet this is just what is done weekly in reference to England bv the Repeal newspaper-men . There are good and bad in all countries , in Ireland as well as in England , but far be it from us to impute the crimes of a few to an entire people . The writers , who pursue the opposite coarse of slandering an entire people , and inventing their hedious calumnies for the purpose of setting nation against nation , instead of being the best are the ivmt possible instructors society could have . __ There arc too many such in Ireland , and their influence is the most mukincholy sign of thc present state of mind of the public they address .

Alleged Lvcexdurv Fire at Birkenhead . — About half-past two o ' clock on Monday morning , the office of Messrs . John and William Walker , builders , Hamilton-lane , at the rear of Hamilton-square , Birkenhead , was discovered to be on fire . The two engines belonging to tho township were immediatel y conveyed to the spot , but in consequence o ' f the saddletree over the water plug adjacent to the premises not admitting the stand-cook , neither of the engines could be got into play for some time , and then only by obtaining water from a plug in Cleveland-street , a distance of 200 yards from the fire . The office was
completely gutted , and the whole of its contents destroyed , with the exception of the books , which were locked up in one of Milner _' s patent safes . The damage to the building alone is about £ 200 , but it is impossible to estimate the probable loss to the Messrs . Walker of an immense number of plans and specifications of buildings , erected and in process of erection , which perished in the flames . The parties were , of course , insured . Mr . _M'Harg , the active superintendent of Birkenhead , who investigated all the circumstances , has reported to the Watch Committee ofthe township that there can bo very little doubt that the office was _maliciouslv act on fire .
THE LAND-PLAN ABROAD . Berchem , near Antwerp , May 26 , _Ms Ma . T . M .

If we are admitted _we _wiU forward you our first year ' s subscription immediatel y , _r have been here ahout fourteen months . I former" . worked at Leeds , and once had the pleasure of seeing vou at Ross ' s Coffee-house . The " small-farm system" is in operation here , and a contented race the farmers are Berchem is about three miles from Antwerp ¦ nie * country district . The gardens are laid out in ' tho mosl
tasteful manner . In this district there are very , _ver-r few , who have not a small plot of land attached to their houses . The people of this part of Belgium Lave their eyes open to the value ofthe land ; but there is a set of greedy , grindiug capitalists , who are ever on the watch for a sale of land . Listen ! Previous to a safe of land taking place , placards are distributed over the district where the land lies . On the placard a plan of the estat * is lithographed , the estate being divided into portions from two acres down to a quarter of an acre , to ght t / J ncople a _chmice of bvyixxg ; but at the time of sale a _sivarm of these moneyed gentry pop in , and generall y succeed in purchasing the whole . Then they re-let it . I will give you an instance . About seven months ago a . particular friend of mine died , and his land was put up in
allotments . One allotment was adjoining to a small farm occupied by a very industrious man ; one who had by _hij industry scraped together 500 francs . He fully _intended to purchase the lot , the sum he had being thought quite sufficient for the purchase . I attended the sale ; and when the lot was put up , these gentry run it up to _floft francs , and got it . The curses on these fellows' heads were long , loud , and deep . I have my house hung round with the plates given by the _Abrtftern Star , "ffe have a feast every Wednesday evening when tbe ¦ Star arrives and are right glad to see that the trades of England are ' on the move .

The mould for forming sockets on the pipes is now perfect in its operation . From the simplicity of its horizontal movement the machine is not liable to derangement , anil it throws itself out of gear as soon as all the clay is worked out of the container ; it is not easily injured . All stones in the clay arc crushed to pieces witliout retarding the movement , and tliese are the only machines hitherto offered to the public , for which , with most clays , no pre . vious preparation of the clay is required—an expense generally greater than the cost of making . If worked by hand , that is , one man or two boys , it is capable of producing from 5 , 000 to 7 , 000 per day , or , if by oue horse , or by steam or water power , will produce from 14 , 000 to 40 , 000 draining tiles per day .
