( Hear , hear . ) He should like to feave that satisfaction if the house would grant it , for he did fceliere in fie purity of the government . ( Renewed cheers ftoai the Opposition . ) He believed that they were working a sh : im , and that they were making a sort of scape-goat to bs sent into the wilderness to take oB the sins of the Ad *
ministration . He wanted to know if the house would sapport him in bringing Mr . Coppoek to that bar , in order that they might have a different sort of revelation from that whfch had been elicited by the commissioners , capital as that was - ( near ) -at St . Albans , he would move , as an amendment to the motion that Sir G . Grey and the Attorney . General Bbould bring in the bill , "that Mr . Coppoek be called to be examined at the bar of the bouse . ' Lord C . Hamilton seconded the motion . Sir G . Gxet deprecated snch a course of proceeding , when no notice whatever had been given on the subject . Mr . RoEBccEsall he would withdraw the motion if the Ion . gentleman would not oppose it when he should bring it forward . Sir G . Gbet complained that thehon . ana learned gentleman was not treating him fairly . Mr . Hatter said that , as far as he knew , the government lad nothing to do with Mr . Coppoek with respect to the election for St . Albans .
Mr . Disraeli quoted a passage from the report of the Sudbury case , which went to show that the practice complained of dated as far back as that period , and was , therefore , worthy of inquiry . Mr . Roebuck then withdrew his amendment , and gave notice that he would renew it on the second reading of tbe bill . After disposing of some wmtine business , the house then adjourned . TUESDAY , Fsb . 17 . HOUSE OP LOttUS . —The Oath of Scpbbuacy . — Business in this house commenced by a discussion on the real import of the words in which the oath of supremacy is couched . The debate , it appears , originated in the Earl of Clancarty having presented himself at the table to take
the oaths . The noble earl was understood to object to that part of the oath which stttes , that the Pope " hath no jurisdiction , power , or authority within this realm . " The Lard Chancellor made an effort to persuade the noble earl that the meaning of the oath ans , that the Pope had no legal jurisdiction , power , or authority , —but without e&ect ; and the noble earl eventually withdrew without having taken the oatb . Irish Aorabuxisu . —The Earl of Rose :: again brought the state of the north of Ireland before the house , and after describing Iba alarm and insecurity which existed in the disturbed districts , moved for a return of the number Of murders , burnings , and outrages which had occurred in the couatie 3 of Louth , Honaghan , Down , and Armagh , from the 1 st of February , 13 i 9 , to the 1 st of February ,
a& 52 . The Marquis of LtssDowss admitted the importance of the subject , and had no objection to the production of the returns , but repeated his opinion that the existing laws would be in the end found effectual in repressing auch outrages as had recently occurred in the disturbed districts of Irehnd , and bringing the offenders to justice . Cocsir Courts Extessios Bill .- —The Lord Chancellor moved the omission of the clause from the County Courts Extension Bill which allowed barristers to appear in those courts without the intervention of attorneys , and a discussion on the matter arose among the law Lords , which ended in the adoption of tbe Lord Chancellor ' s amendment . The bill as amended then went through Committee .
HOUSE OF COMMONS . —The Sbw Miutu . —Lord Pauierstox gave notice that on bringing up the report of the Committee , he would move such an alteration of the new force as would make it a general instead of a local body , and with the view of devising means , in the event of a war of providing for the defence— : iot for England only , tint for all parts of the United Kingdom . ( Hear , hear . ) Garbled Despatches . —In reply to a question put by Sir H . Willoubbgi , whether it was intended to place upon the table copies of the entire despatches of Captain ( Sir Alexander ) Barnes to Mr . Macnaghten . in 1837 and 1 S 38 . relating to the affairs of Cabal , which had been represented in a recent work of Mr . Kajs to have been garbled and mutilated .
Mr . F . Matjle said the despatches which had been submitted to the house in 1339 did not profess to be entire ; such extracts were given as were considered at the time sufficient to inform the house as to the policy of the government in relation to the Cabul expedition , and as it was consistent with the public service to disclose . In 1 S 12 this subject had been discussed , when Sir J . Hobhouse justified himself and the government in relation to it , and there was no intention now to ky these despatches in extenso before the pnblic , and thereby revrre questions which had become matters of history . Jurisdiction at the Caps —In reply to Mr . Addeblet , Mr . F . Peel said it . was not the intention of the Government to prepare a bill to extend British jurisdiction in South Africa to the Equator .
Savings Basks . —Mr . Remit Herbert moved a resolution declaring that tho house had observed with regret the continued neglect of government to fulfil their promise of introducing a bill for the regulation of savings banks , by "which those important institutions might be enabled to preserve their hold on public confidence , and a due encoutagement be thus given to the industry and providence of the working classea . He complained of the disappointment occasioned by theaeskct of Ministers to press legislation after bringing in a bill two years ago . lie referred to tbe anomalous position of Mr . Tidd Pratt , whose award in the case of the defaulting banks had been repudiated by Ministers , though he was their own officer .
The Chancellor of the Exchequer would have been glad if he could have proposed the bill of 1850 , but what was wanted by those who urged government interference was that the whole control of those institutions should bs left in the hands of local managers , but that the government should be made responsible for all the deposits . This was unreasonable . He had the bill ready to re-introduce last session , but , seeing that there was " but little prospnet of passing it in the then state of public business and of the feeling of the house , he had abstained from bringing it for"ward . He had since entered into communication with
several managers of savings banks and others , and , in consequence of suggestions received from them , bad made alterations in the measure , which he hoped would remove the objections formerly entertained towards it . In the course Of the session , it would be brought in in its altered shape , and he hoped he should succeed in passing it ; but it must be recollected that the unfortunate results which had occurred in reference to certain of these batiks could be avoided only by the trustees attending to their duty on behalf of their poorer neighbours . With regard to Mr . Tidd Pratt , he was merely appointed to certify the rules of friendly institutions , and could not be regarded as a
"overnment officer . The statement seemed to be satisfactory , and , after a short conversation , the motion was withdrawn INVESTMENTS OF THE HUMBLER CLASSES . Mr . Slaskt moved for a standing committee , or unpaid commission , to consider , suggest , and report from time to time , measures to reuiore legal and other obstacles which impede the investments and industry of the humbler classes . There was the greatct necessity at this particular time that all obstacles in the way ofstnail investments should be removed . The first public work in which tbe middle classes iadan opportunity of makin g investments waj the Duke of Bndgewater ' s canal ; then came the railroads , in which in thirty years upwards of thirty millions had been investedand the railroads were now nearly all made . At nresent
investments were wanted for no less than seventy-five millions a year , and in proportion to the facility of making these investments would be tbe frugality and industry of the people . - The main difficulty that arose was the state of the pattnewtap law , by which no man could join a concern without being habla to the wnole extent of Ms property ; and , supposing there wa » any difference among tho partners there was no remedy but to go to a placa he hardly dare mention—the Court of Chnncery , which was tantemount to a denial of justice . The law of unlimited liability might work well m some respects , but ho wished to have a restriction put upon that liability under certain circumstances . Partnership with limited liability was the hw in America , in France , in Spain , and ,-indeed , in every countrv in Jiuropo except our own . A charter limiting i ; , t . ; isr «
m , ghtbeobtained . butata great cost . The Socieiy fbr topromg the Dwellings of the Poorer Classes in the Metropolis had to pay from £ 1 , 000 to £ 1 . 200 for their charter , The committee , of which he was the chairman , were unanimously of opinion that at aU events these charteri should be conferred at a much less cost . There was another point -with regard to local enterprises , such as the making of roads , or the supplying of gas . An act of parliament was now required for each of these purposes , of which the cost was very great Then there was a third point . Recently a number of co-operative societies had sprung up in various
parts of the country . There was one at Leeds , called the People ' s Mill , from which he under stood the benefit bad been very great . Could anything be better than to give to poor parsons the opportunity of bettering themselves in this way by their own money . How stood the law with regard to them ? Why , that , independent of the unlimited tt onn of eFery P "' ^ tf an F dispute arose amongtt tlmo or 500 persons , they had no remedy but to go to " « tourt of Chancery .

been a disturbance at New York , or one of the great American cities , and some fear wag entertained lest , when so many of the common people were congregated together , the gas lights would be put out . A gentleman , howeveri remarked that there was no danger of that , because every man present had got a share in the gas company . ( Hear , hear , and a laugh . ) The hon . member argued that in like Manner the best mode of attaching the humbler classes to our national institutions would be to facilitate the acquirement by them of a stake in the country ; and concluded by moving the resolution . Mr . Ewart seconded the motion . . Mr . Laboucheke , with every desire to promote the object wtech Mr . Slaney had in view , expressed a doubt as to the soundness of his suggestions , and with this impression he could not accede to the motion . A standing committee or commission would be most inexpedient , and could not work well ; but , to meet in some degree the views of Mr . Slaney , it wa 3 the intention of the government to issue a commission carefully to consider the whole law of
partnership , with a view to its improvement . With respect to the question whether this country should abandon the principle of unlimited liability and adopt the law which generally prevails in other nations , his own private opinion was adverse to a great and fundamental change in what had always been the law of this country . As to working associations and co-operative societies , he was aware that they were establishing themselves in the country ; but he should be sorry to lead working men to believe it was practicable to unite the functions of capitalist and workman . The expense of charters of limited liability , he admitted , was too great ; but , on the other hand , the reduction of the stamp duties had facilitated the possession of land ; and he was glad to see that in various parts of the country advantage waa being extensively taken of those facilities . The law of joint-stock companies was undoubtedly cumbersome , and might be altered with advantage ; but he r epeated he did not desire to see the fundamental prinoiple of our law of partnership subverted . Mr . Moffat expressed satisfaction that ministers were about to appoint a commission on the law of partnership .
Mr . Heaoi . au considered the present law of partnership most defective both in regard to the partners themselves and the public . The principle of unlimited liability was not so interwoven with our institutions as the President of the Board of Trade seemed to suppose , limited liability existed already in onr railroad and many other joint-stock companies . He was glad to hear that a commission was about to issue on the subject . Mr . J . A . Smith believed the working classes thought less of tbe amount of interest they obtained for the savings than of security for them . He , therefore , did not concur in tho recommendation to abolish unlimited liability in order to encourage the employment of those savings in speculative investments . It would be , however , desirable to establish some ready means of settling partnership disputes .
Mr . Cobden had not been able to discover why we should bean exception to the commercial world generally in regard to limited liability , nor why there should be one rule for large joint-stock companies like railway companies and another for small concerns . With regard to the working classes , he believed they got far larger profits , in the shape of wages , by working for and under the management of a master , than they would obtain if they united their labour together at their own risk ; but he would give them every facility for doing so , if they chose , in order to remove that which was now considered a grievance by them . Limited liability would tend to diffuse capital , and attract it from the hands of the wealthy to those who could employ it profitably . It would be quite sufficient security if it were required that the parties to such a combination of capital and skill were required , as was the case in some parts of the continent , to advertise their names .
Mr . Soiheros wished to say , by way of warning to his hon . friend ( Mr . Slaney ) , that though he had obtained the promise of a commission , the object of those parties whose case he advocated would be as far from being attained as ever . The great point that was desired for them was to obtain from the house some means of adjusting disputes among themselves . ( Hear , hear . ) The remedy for that which was complained of by co-operative societies would be rather looking to the enactments on friendly societies , and affording them greater facilities for arrangements among themselves , than a change in the law of partnership . With regard to the law of partnership , the best thing they could do would be to encourage parties having small capital to lend it to partnerships , and to obtain an engagement that should authorise fixing the interest on money so lent according to the amount of the profits that might be made by
the concern . ( Hear , hear . ) What his hon friend aimed at would be best carried out by these means . Mr . Ewart said he understood the object of the inquiry would not be at all restricted in the way that had been supposed by a hon . member opposite . This was a question concerning not one class of society only , but all alike . He rejoiced that the government had so far conceded the principle advocated . He denied that the system of limited liability was alien to the spirit of the English law . Capital w ? s continually struggling for freedom , as was evidenced by the railway companka and other joint-stock undertakings . In America ib was the practice to look more at the amount of capital subscribed than at the names ; and what was the use of a man being liable to the whole amount of his fortune , if nothing was known of his means ? This question had beeu most ably argued in a pamphlet by M .
Wolowski , late a member of the French National Assembly . Mr . T . B aring complained that the hon . gentleman opposite ( Mr . Cobden ) had prejudged the opinion of the commercial community , which it wonld be the object of the proposed commission to ascertain . While advocating the unrestricted use of capital , tbe hon . member must have forgotten that he had himself , at public meetings , attempted to dictate as to the employment of capital . { Hear , hear . ) It seemed to be overlooked that limited liability might be a good thing in one country , as in France , where there were a great number of small capitals and little enterprise , or in America , and yet not a good thing for this country , where there was certainly no lack of enterprise and
competition . He much doubted whether the " marriage" recommended by the hon . member for West Yorkshire would bo a happy union . If some fat , easy man , with plenty of money , was joined with one who had nothing but his skill , the result would probably be a diminution of responsibility onbothside 3 . ( Hear , hear . ) In his opinion , the question was quite an open one . He doubted whether , after the commission had reported , a bill could be framed which would sufficiently guard against fraud ; aud ha aU © doubted whether it was desirable to give any greater stimulus to commercial enterprise . The result might bs the establishment of some monster comjiany which should undersell all the small traders .
Mr . Trelawnet thought the subject one that should be approached with great caution . Much evil mi ght result from partnerships where one partner only had capital and all the rest were without . He distrusted any opposition to the present system from the other side of the house ; for he considered protection as nothing better than a species of socialism . That house had too often unwittingly encouraged socialist principles . The present strike of engineers , he believed , was attributable to the bill of the noble lord ( Russell ) for regulating labour in factories . He trusted the working men would not be led away by unfounded expectations as to the benefit they were to derive from the kind of co-operative societies which were the object of the contemplated measure . Mr . Slaset , after thanking tbe government for consenting to issue a commission on the subject , asked leave to withdraw his motion . The motion was then withdrawn .
Don ox Carriages . —Sir Db L . Evans moved for leave to bring in a bill for the reduction of duty on carriages / He insisted upon the falling off of this duty , and the frauds practised in order to evade it , and , upon these grounds , he pressed Sir C . Wood not to resist the proposal . . The Chakcellor of the Exchequer , though ho acknowledged that the proposal was fairer than most of ' those made to him for the reduction of taxation , declined to sacrifice so large an amount of revenue before the result of the revenue of the year was known . A discussion ensued , and upon a division it wa 3 negatived by 59 against 24 . 6 A similar proposition with respect to the abolition of the stamps on receipts gave rise to a more extended debate , and was defeated by the Chancellor of the Exchequer by a mnjorityof 61 to 28 . * ' A host of returns were ordered , and the house rose about eleven o clock .
WEDNESDAY Feb . IS HOUSE OF COMMONS . —The County Rates Bill was read a second time . Mr . F . Mackeszik moved the second reading of the Pablic Houses ( Scotland ) Bill . Mr . Hums moved its being read a second time that day six months . Mr . F . Mabie supported ihe bill . After considerable discussion the second reading was , on division , carried by 129 to 67 ; majority in its favour , 50 . The Enfranchisement of Copyholds Bill was read a second time . Couxty Rates Expenditure Bill . —Mr . Bright ( in the momentary absenceof Mr . Milner Gibson ) moved the second reading of the County Rates and Expenditure Bill .
Sir J . Pabkisoiox opposed the bill , and moved its being read a second time that day six months . Mr . R . Palmer said that the principle of tbe bill ( which had been represented as the same as that of last year ) had been entirely altered . Under the present bill it was left to boards of guardians to decide whether any magistrate whatever should have a voice in the affairs of his country . He charged Mr . M . Gibson with dealing unfairly by the house . ' Mr . M . Gibsox denied that there was any alteration in the principle of the bill , and asserted his right to deal as he thought proper with its details . The principle of the bill having been twice sanctioned by the House of Commons , he thought it was the duty of government to t 3 a 6 it Up * Sir G .

revive the personal question-but the point might be seam raised when the Committee on Indian : affairs was moved on Friday week , , ; The Earl of Ellbnborotjgh assented . The County Courts Extension Bill was reported . Their lordships adjourned at seven o clock . HOUSE OF COMMONS . — Lord Naas brought forward his motion of want of confidence in the Irish government , declaring that in the opinion of the house the transactions which recently appeared to have taken place between the Irish government ana the editor of a Dublin newspaper ( the World ) were ot a nature to weaken the authority of the executive ,
and to reflect discredit on the administration of public affairs . He commenced by paying a high compliment to Lord Clarendon ' s former services , and to the business qualities and urbanity of the chief secretary , but he said the charge he had to bring against them was of a public character , involving a most improper and unconstitutional application of public money . He then proceeded to detail the whole of the circumstances as elicited in the recent trial of " Birch v . Somerville , " commenting severely on the conduct ot a person in the position of Lord Clarendon or Sir W . Somerville engaging for a moneyj payment to write up their government a person who had been convictea of libel and sentenced to six months' imprisonment .
Lord J . Russell characteri sed this motion , in spite of the declaimer of Lord Naas , as an attempt to blast the character of a nobleman who had rendered great public sorvices , in particular to the country to which the noble Lord belonged . The facts of the transaction in question , he observed , required to be re-stated , and Lord John—premising that he had not heard a Bingle word from Lord Clarendon in this matter until four days ago—gave an exposition of the circumstances which led the Irish government to countenance Mr . Birch , who tendered his services in the spring of 1818 , when the state of Ireland was one of great peril , to promote the cause of peace and order , and these services were with that object accepted . He taxed Lord Naas with unfairly excluding from view the perilous position
of Ireland at that critical period , which had induced the Lord Lieutenant to encourage a public writer to support , not his government , but the cause of the whole United Kingdom . la these difficult and dangerous times Lord Clarendon had shown all those qualities which should distinguish a Viceroy , and now , when the danger was past , an attempt was made to affix a , atigraa . upou M& fame . ¦ He could not understand how a member of a Conservative Opposition , who owed to the wisdom and energy of Lord Clarendon the safety of his property , could now arraign the man by whom those benefits had been conferred , and ask the house to concur with him in condemning one to whom he ought to be grateful . In his ( Lord John ' s ) own opinion , it ) would have been more discreet iu Lord Clarendon if he had refused a
compromise with Mr . Birch ; but a slight error of this kind was but a feather ' s weight in the scale against his great and undoubted services , and he ( Lord John ) was persuaded that the house would be of opinion that it would be consistent neither with its own dignity nor the interests of the country to pronounce Lord Clarendon ' s condemnation . Mr . Disraeli warned the house against the sophis * try of the noble lord , whose argument was , Put down the rebellion , ' and never mind themeans . ' Would that logic be approved by members of a liberal party ? If , as confessed by the First Minister , this was part of a system which had been pursued by other Irish secretaries , and if the house believed that system to
be a pernicious one , it was not au affair of taste , but a public duty on the part of that house to express its opinion upon it . The house had these facts before it , that the Lord Lieutenant , like his predecessors , had placed himself in communication with ; a newspaper , had employed its influence to assist his administration , and paid for it out of the public . funds ; and the house was told that this was not & } subject to be inquired into , because Lord Clarendon ! had succeeded in his policy . The question , then , was' this—was it the opinion of the House of Commons that this practice Bhould continue to prevail , and that it was for the benefit of the country that its government should subsidise tbe press from the public funds ? Mr . Hobhouse defended the conduct of the Irish
government . Mr . S . Crawford said the question really was , whether the house was to sanction the subsidising the Irish newspapers . He thought such a course so demoralising and so wrong in principle , that , notwithstanding his high respect for the Earl of Clarendon , he must vote for the motion . Mr . Moore believed that except , for the plea of party motive , there was no member of that house who would not condemn the conduct of the Irish executive in this matter . It was well for Lord John to bring forward tho state of Ireland in 1848 in defenoe of his colleagues , but no sane man believed in the reality of the so-called Irish rebellion . Considerable discussion ensued , during -which tho Irish government was supported by Mr . Roche , Dr . Power , Col . Thompson , and Sir D . Norrbts . Col . Sibthorp , Mr . Newdkgaie , and Lord C . Hamilton , spoke in favour of the motion . Lord Palmersion defended the conduct of Lord Clarendon , who would have been much more to blame if , in the critical cwcttmstovnce in wWeh tbe country was p \ aced , he had rejected the offer of the proprietor of the " World . ' ' Lord Naas shortly replied , after which the house divided , and the numbers were—. , For the motion 137 Against it 229 Majority 92 The house Boon after adjourned .

v AccinEKi to a Vessel os the MBitsBTt . —The Bhip Anna Henderson , Coull master , from Caloutta , belonging Mr . Steele , merchant of Liverpool , cfime up the Mersey with tbe tide on Monday , and was about to be towed into the Albert Dock by the Queen steam tug , it being then about three quarters of an nour ebb tide . The gale , however , was so strong and . the < sea was rolling so heavily , that the ship drifted and got jammed between two other vessels at the south end of the Prince ' s-pier , where the efforts of the Queen tug . were strained in vain to extricate her from a position whichwaB fast becoming one of peril . Her bowsprit projected over the pier , and her fore rigging caught one of the iron lamp-posts at the head of the stairs , which it tore up from tho foundations with the huge stone into which it had been sunk , as though it was a mere toy . The other iron lamp-post was snapped off about the centreand the head
, with its fittings , and a considerable portion of the gaspipe , cast on the ground . Great anxiety was felt lest she should run foul of the bridge belonging to the great landing Btago , but such a result was prevented by ropes being made fast to the iron pillars on the pierehead , which put a check upon the movements of the shi p till six steam tugs were brought up , and rescued her from her perilous position . Just before this occurrence , and while the Anna Ilenderaoa was iu the river , a frightful accident befell the third mate of the ship . While engaged in the performance of his duties he got entangled in the rope round the capstan , which was being worked by tho seamen , and , being worked up therein , both legs were dreadfully lacerated and fractured . Indeed so seriouB were the injuries , that the limbs were nearly severed from the body . Ho vjas immediatel y removed to the hospital in a dangerous condition , and , it was believed , with small hope of recovery .

\ GUILDHALL .-Curious Case . — William Southwell , mate of the brig Petrel , was examined , charged with casting James Harman Crisp , a cab-driver , into the Thames . This case had been remanded for the attendanoe of the principal witness for the prosecution , who , the court was given to understand , had been paid by the prisoner , and his friends to keep out of the way . —Wm , Joyce , the person in question , now said he under « stood on the last examination , that the cabman had settled
the matter out of court , and was to receive £ 5 , by way of compensation for the injuries he bad sustained . Witness accordingly went out to drink with the captain of the brig , who then gave him a sovereign for himself to keep out of the way . He took the sovereign and went away . —Alderman Humphery remarked on the last occasion the captain swore that he had not been instrumental in preventing Joyce ' s appearing in court . The captain here Btated he was not sworn on the day of the remand , for he never touched the book . —Alderman Humphery said if he did not
touch the book when the oath was administered , that trick was too common to save himself from an indictment for perjury if he swore falsely . He then ordered the captain into the witness-box . Benjamin Thaxter , the captain of of the brig , having been sworn , admitted tbat he treated the witness Joyce to a pint of beer , and also that he gave him a sovereign , but explained that it was at the urgent advice of the witness ' s friends and the concurrence of the prisoner , whose money it was He gave nothing out of his own pocket , but naid the monev
on the prisoner ' s account out of what was due to him — Alderman Humphrey said the captain had now contradicted upon oath all that he had previously stated , and theonlv excuse ho made for telling all these lies was that he was not sworn -The witness Joyce hero said that when he received the sovereign * Alexander Reed , the pugilist , and ' a man known as a hanger on , were with him , and said they were to have 03 . each out of the money . Joyce SHid he did not want it as he was sure he should be obliged to come up here again ; he , however , give . him 7 s . and spent the rest . -The captain asainassertedthe money was not his own—? lntB eLLa M r l - ltdldnot 8 i 8 nify whe * ber the money belonged to the Captain or any one else , as he was the party who gave the money to the witness to defeat the ends of justice . The unfortunate cabman had had a very narrow escape , and it the case had rested with him , instead of Alderman Humphery , he would have indicted the captain with the pri-Epaer . —Alderman Humphery said that was his opinion on
tneiasi examination , but the absence of the witness Joyce rendered it absolutely necessary to remand the case . He should therefore now commit the prisoner for trial , and indict the captain at the Old Bailey . AIARLBOROUGH . STREET . -IIobbert in an Omnibus . -Jane Thomas was brought before Mr . Bingham , charged with having stolen a bunker ' s book containing railway shares of the value of £ 2 , 800 , the property ot Captain Stanton . of 21 , Henrietta-street , Cavendish-square . —The complainant said , on Tuesday evening he got into an omnibus in Parliament-street . He had his banker ' s book in his pocket , which contained twenty £ 100 Midland Haibray shares , and twenty £ 40 Midland shares , besides a small glass . The prisoner sat next to bim in the oranibu ? At Regent-circus three persons sot out of the omnihns nrwl
complaint then missed his book . He called to the conductor and told him of his loss . A constable was called and the prisoner wj *? given into custody .

THE ADDRESS OF THE MANHOOD SUFFRAGE AS . SOCIATION TO THE TRADING AND WORKING CLASSES OF GREAT BRITAIN AND IRELAND .
^ it ^ zb ' ns / nd / Brothers . —An important era in the history of M&tyrHtoh-liiopwe is rapidly approaching . The growing intelligence and mental progress of the millions , are gradwally directing their thoughts to the contemplation of the monster evils and gigantic abuses which are sp abundant in their social condition . Governed by a faction of aristocratic p lace-hunters who constitute the majority of the so-called People ' s House of Commons , but who repre-6 ent neitheit-the population , induitry , nor the intelligence , of the nation , Aey find themselves plundered and oppressed , without theyightest power of obtaining redress or the removal of lh Ariefances . Thus the vile Pension List , the
present rruaBki inefficient Poer Law , the infamous Tax on Knowledge , Mutate Church system of extortion and plunder , the extr ^ gant and shameful waste of the public money , with many other tyrannies and corruptions , exist in direct opposition to the honest op inions and feelings of the immense majority of the people , and totally at , variance with the present advancing age of civilisation . None of these can be altered or abolished , until the people really have their voice heard in the national representation and that this may be done effectually the en tire enfranchisement of the masses ' must he procured . We therefore call your attention to the principles of the Manhood Suffrage Association , which is formed for the purpose of obtaining , by all
legal means , the enactment of a law given to every adult male of sane mind , his just tig ht of voting for the people ' s representatives in the House of Commons ; to afford him the protection of the ballot in the exercise of that right , and to accomplish such other reforms in the electoral system as may ensure its impartial and efficient working . We pro « pose that all kinds of property qualifications should be abolished in the exercise of the electoral right , and in respect to members themselves , and we would seek a return to the old constitutional system of electing the people ' s representatives for each annual session , and remunerating them for their services . Moreover we require a thorough new arrangement of the electoral district , so that the
representation may be regulated in proportion to the population , thus equalizing all constituencies . These then are the measure ! which established on the broad basis of true justice , honesty , and right , are necessary for the realisation of good and cheap government , the blessings of unfettered industry , and political and religious liberty , in their most comprehensive existence and signification , and all these desired objects are only to be obtained by a firm and unflinching union and a concentrated public opinion , created by means of public meetings , lectures , addresses , subscriptions , &c . We therefore invite you all to throw aside petty differences of opinion , party prejudices , and every sentiment of sectarian bigotry , which have hitherto prevented the consummation of any amount of good , by exciting bad feeling and hostile contentions . A large number of you have
endeavoured by concentrating all your hopes and energies in trade unions , societies , and co-operation , to elevate the working classes to their rightful position ; but excellent and praisewoithj as your exertions have been , they have proved utterly inadequate to the attainment of any extensive benefit for the masses ; and be assured that political enfranchisement is a necessary prelude to any desired social reform . We have now briefly explained our propositions , and most earnestly and energetically call upon you to join and aid us , enrol your names as members of the association , and by each and all working in harmony and fixity of purpose , we shall succeed " in hastening the advent and procuring the adoption of a real and veritable government of a free and enlightened people . By order of the Committee , W . H . Cottle , Honorary Secretary . N . B . —Trades' unions , societies , and all associations of the industrial classes , are invited to send delegates from their respective bodies to form part of the committee , who meet every Tuesday evening , at nine o ' clock at the Finsbury Literary Institution , Leicester-place , Ray-street , Clerkenwell . All applications for information or cards of membership , to be sent ( by letter only ) to the Secretary , 16 , Jftgram-place , Holloway , London . —January 31 st , 1852 .
