By enlarging their trade they * ere procuring emplovment for working men , and enabling them to dictate term 3 * to ihe masters instead of the masters dictatin" term * to them . The speaker , who was much cheered , coiicludeJ by earnestly appealing to them to join in one firm union , and snecess would be certain .
Mr . G . J . IIoltoake said the conduct exhibited by the Chartists was a thing to mourn over . It was not in the p ower of tyr-wiiiy to say anything against the enfranchisement of the people so bitter as to quote what had been soen that day , if that was to be taken as an example of the tempir and intelligence of the people . Bat it was not so . For a year ai « l a half he had heen , and still was ono of the Council of the chief political society of the working class , known as the National Charter Association . That body was friendly to confederated action with all who work for the enfranchisement of the people . They might not forego their own independent class activity . Practical political sagacity bad made to much progress among them , that they ¦ were not likel y to offer unanimous opposition to any who ¦ would be 3 tow the franchise on any portion of the people now without it . The Social Reformers have now returned to their ancient interest in Political Reform , and lent their aid very heartily in the work of popular enfranchisement . Their Co-operation now would be practical and effectual .
The Rev . I » . Burs , of Marylebone , said , that the ministers « f the dissenting congregations , were rapidly coming to the conclusion that they must take an active part in the reform movement . ( Hear Jiear . ) lie concurred cordially in the plan of the association . ( Hear , hear . ) Mr . E . Joxes came upon the platform amid some cheering and much hissing , and with much energy denounced the plan of the association as reactionary . ( Oh , oh . ) lie denied that the association represented the feelings of any portion of the Chartist body , and asserted that they had not be « n invited to Leeds or Manchester . He challenged the association to a discussion of their respective principles . ( Muvh confusion here arose . ) Mr . Clarke , as a Manchester Chartist denied the assertion of Mr . Ernest Jones as to the association having gone to Manchester uninvited . They had been expressly invited by the Chartist council , and the proposal had only been re * seated by % very small minority . ( Continued confusion . )
Mr . IMvei said , that unless the proceedings to-morrow were regulated in a better manner than they had been today he should be compelled to decline attending . Mr . G . Tnoiirsos regretted the disturbance , which had been occasioned by the conduct of five or six individuals ; making some distinction , however , between the conduct of Jlr . Jone 3 and Mr . Dick . The former Mr . Thompson spoke very hi ghly of , and then proceeded to administer a irell-deserved chastisement to Mr . Dick which resulted in another uproar , and almost changed into a fight . By the moderation of the chairman and the intervention of Sir Joshua Walmsley the disturbance was quelled after a time , and the proceedings allowed to continue , not however without frequeut interruptions from Mr . Dick , whose loud guffiws , and still louder denials of every statement made were particularly annoying . Mr . Slick moved a resolution , limiting the right of speaking and voting at the subsequent meetings of the Conference to members of the association , except in peculiar circumstances .
The resolution was seconded , but met with so many objections—Mr . Home and the iuoro influential members of the association present all concurring in expressing their Sincere belief that the disturbances of the meeting would not again be repeated , and that the resolution was therefore Unnecessary—that it was accordingly withdrawn . The Conference adjuumed at half-past five after passing a vote of thanks to the chairman , which was duly but iriefly acknowledged by Mr . Hume . Second Dat ' s Siiiko . The adjourned " Conference" was held on "Wednesday , at St . Mania ' s Hall , Long-acre . Mr . Ralph Walters in the chair .
The Ciiairuas objected to Lord Derby's proposition to hand over the masses , Nonconformists and all , to the parochial clergy . Mr . Walters then read the following minute as to the mode in which it was proposed to conduct the business of the day : — " It is recommended by the business committee to the Conference that the present sitting be devoted to the discussion of the resolutions read from the chair yesterday , and that they be considered by tlie Conference exclusively . No person will move , second , or snpport resolutions , or take pait in this discussion , but members of the Rational , Financial , and Parliamentary Association . The resolutions being disposed of , the rest of the diy will be devoted to tlie reception of reports from the country . " ( Hear , hear . )
After considerable tli ? cussion , it was agreed that the deputations from other associations should be heard uutil halfpast one , and that then the business of the association should be proceeded with , it being also arranged that all persons desirous cf speaking should retire and give their names to the business committee before they were allowed to ade ' ross the meeting . Mr . Shaw , however , "" said that he should not interfere any further , and advised all his friends to follow his example . Mr . Bezsr representing tlie Exective Committee of the National Charter Association , insisted on the necessity of manhood suffrage . Mr . WiLTonn , representing thirty societies of the Metropolitan Temperance Union , declared he would not be satisfied with sis or reven points of the Charter , but with the rights of the people only . Mr . Rhodes , representing the Reform Association of Ac * Cr ington , thought reformers should take as much as they could get , and tbat the people were notyet educated enough for manhood suffrage .
Mr . Elt , of Finsbury , regretted the non-existence of a strong popular combination to carry reform . Mr . Davt , of Exeter , proposed , and Mr . George Dawsos seconded , the first resolution , which declared that , however the association regretted the accession to power of the present Government , they could not but congratulate the cocntry that it would relieve reformers from the discussion of Lord John Russell ' s bill . —Carried unanimously . Mr . J . Towle , of the city of Oxford , moved the nexi resolution , which recommended increased activity on the part of Reformers at election * , registrations , and local committees , affiliated to iue main body . lie assured the meeting no one could vote in liis locality without bein ^ subject to the influence of the University " ; but Uedid not ' see the uta of going for all the points of the Charter when they could not t'et tl : era . The resolution having been seconded by Mr . Het . wood , of Bokon , and supported bv Mr . Nichols , was carried .
• Mr . Chapman , of Yarmouth , proposed , and Mr . Kesler seconded , the third resolution , which was declaratory of the necessity for reforming the representation of the House of Commons . An address from tho association , which stated in a general ^ r ay the proportions for reform which Mr . Hume ' s motions in the house have made familiar to the public , having been agreed to . Mr . Aldermau Cmsx , of Nottingham , moved a vote of thanks to all the active members of the association , which was seconded by Mr . Tnonsio . v Hunt , and adopted . Mr . Tahcox , of Eve a farmer , moved the sixth resolution—__ That a duty especially incumbent on the members and local aisoaations is to augment tlie funds at the disposal of the association to the largest jtosvible amount , since the success of so extended a machinery must , in a ^ rcat degree , be proportionate to the means of keeping it in active motion . Mr . Jacksox , of Yarmouth , seconded the resolution , which was carried unanimously .
Mr . Hixiojt , a delegate from the 3 ung * s-cro ; s district of the association , proposed—That the Conferercj rrcommend to all reform constituencies to snpport tlie return « f ao caudidate for a seat in the Commons House cf Parliament , at the forthcoming eleciions , unless he pled ged himself to refuse his confidence to any administration that would not bring in a till for the extension of the franchise and TOtfi by ballot Mr . Arrox seconded the motion , which was cirried unaolnions !? . A vote of thanks was tlieu given to the chairman , end the conference broke up at a few minutes before five o ' clock .

AGGREGATE MEETING . In the evening a public meeting , to which the Reformers of the metropolis hnd been invited , was held in St . Martm ' s-ball . At twenty minutes past seven o clock , when the proceedings commenced the body of the hall was filled . Among thofe present were , —Sir J . Wahnsley , M . P ., Mr . J . Hume , 1 LP . ; Mr . T . M'Cullaeb , M . P ., Messrs . A . S . Avrton , W , E . Corner , L . Smton , T . Newman ( Saxmundbam ) , J . J . I j ockhatt . W . Clowes , C . J . Buntins : ( Norwich ) , Aldsrman Cullen ( Nottraghom ) , G . Newman , " j . M'Leod , C . Davey ( Crcditou ) , &c . * Oa the motion | of Sir J . Valuslet Mr . Hume was called to the chair .
The CiniHMAX , after requesting the support of the audience in the discharge of the duties imposed upon him in the position to which they had called him , sucroested the importance of keeping steadily in view the object of the meeting , and expressed the hope that a majority would concur with him in regarding it as being to consider the best means of improving the government under which they Jived . It seemed to have been forgotten that this country was a commonwealth , in which , by the constitution , the people were the source of power , not only dispensing the supplies , butre ^ uistinjrthe expenditure . These wereri ghts to which , as free-born Englishmen , all were entitled under that constitution which gave the highest and lowest the benefit of the ssine laws , and made no exception or distinction . If any were uude , it was tl-. e result of abuses not inherent in the system . This countrv had for manv years
oecn under class legislation : He did not speak in disparagement of any class , for the same motives actuated men in P atever situation they were placed .

of the aristocracy ; If all classes did not participate in the election of those who formed the House of Commons , it could not be expected that the House of Commons should act fairl y towards all classes . ( Hear , hear . ) Taking 11 King , Lords , and Commons " as bis motto , ho would say , if each had their powers according to tha principle of the constitution , there could not be a better government ; nor had he seen a better in any part of the world . ( Hear , hear . ) He . rem . nded the meeting that it had assembled to consider how the constitution should be restored to its pristine energy , by enabling those who were at present excluded from the franchise to exercise it without the control from which the voter ought to be protected by that secret voting which the ballot gave- ( cbeers ) -and proceeded to argue that additional power would thereby be given to the
Crown by its Ministers of carrying out what might bo the desire of the community . He contended , therefore , that the House of Commons should be made the house of the people , and enlarged on the advantages which would thereby be secured . The enemy were in possession of th « citadel ; the meeting were assembled for the purpose of considering how they could be effectually dislodged ; and upon these grounds he enforced the necessity of union and co-operation , enjoining at the sam e time the observance of prudence and caution , so tbat , hay ing taken a step , they should not be obliged to retreat , or incur the risk of being thrown back by reaction . lie repeated the terms under which the association had agreed to demand extension of
the suffrage to every householder and every lodger in a house . ( Cries of " All , " loudly reiterated . ) He said , " All if you can : if yon cannot , all you can get . In the great and complicated interests to which members of Parliament were obliged to apply themselves , with annual Parliaments there would never be a man fit for the duty . ( Great clamour . } He would be content at present with triennial Parliaments . Having explained , with reference to the payment of members , that members might be paid now , that the order had never been repealed , and might be put into effect at once , he concluded by calling on the secretary to read the resolutions of the Conference , and also an address by that body to the country . Those documents having been read ,
Mr . A . Atrtox moved the first resolution , as follows : — That this meeting believes radical Parliamentary Reform to b » tlie great practical want of the day , and while desiring the maintenance of Free Trade , records its conviction that freedom of trade would have been impregnable if the Suffrage had been placed upon a truly national basis , and that , In common with other equally important questions , Free Trade can oaly be finally decided when the House of Commons is made a real representation of tba people . The object of the propositions ' made by the association was to give the franchise to a constituency of at least 4 , 200 , 000—that being the number of houses ; and if a man constituted one room his home that would give him a stake in the country qualifying him to vote .
Mr . T . M'Culiagii , M . P ., seconded the resolution , and impressed on the meeting the necessity for unanimity . He held opinions on ; somo topics different from those expressed to-night by his venerable friend in the chair , but was ready to follow him as the patriarch of this question as far as possible . Sir C . Napier said he had attended the day before yesterday at the Conferenco , and having heard the speeches of Sir J . Walmsley , Mr . Hume , " Dr . Burnett , and Mr . Fox , he felt that if he bad not been a Reformer before , ha should have gone away one . He then entered into the army and navy estimates , congratulated the meeting on the interment of the New Reform Bill , and hoped that when tbt present ministry was turned out , to see a good administration aomposed of real Radical Reformers , who would present a bill worthy ef the acceptance of the people of England . ( Loud cheers . )
Mr . Greach , MR , adverted to the subject of education . He could say that the average knowledge amongst those who had not the franchise was quite as great as the average knowledge of those who had got the franchise . ( Loud cheers . ) Mr . Bezer ^ proposed , as an amendment , the addition of the words—That the only principle of Parliamentary Reform recognised by this meeting as just is the enactment of Manhood Suffrage , guaranteed by the Ballot , Short Parliaments , Equal Electoral Districts , no Property Qualification , and Payment of Representatives .
( Great cheering . ) He agreed with the greater part ; of what had been said to-night . He agreed that those who were amenable to the laws ought to have a voice in making those laws . ( Cheers . ) That taxation and representation ought to go together , that it was especially importaut to the poor man to be represented , which meant , if it meant anything , that if any were to be disfranchised , it was those who could afford to wait , and not those who had waited so long . ( Cheers . ) He only wished the gentlemen who ghad brought forward the resolution would make it as good as their speeches , and that would be done by substituting the word " manhood " for " real . Mr . Shaw , from the Tower Hamlets , seconded the amendment .
Mr . Holtoake urged the withdrawal of the amendment . It was very well , he thought , for his friends to say they did not come there to make division , when they did mnhe divisions . ( Great clamour . ) Those who preferred Manhood Suffrage , objected to womanhood suffrage , stopped on the same ground of expediency . Mr . Oodks , of Lambeth , approved of the plan of the association as being a defined plan . Mr . M'Leod , of Lambeth , supported the original resolution . Mr . E . Joxes rose amidst great cheering , mixed with hisses . He said , instead of creating division , the amendment was likely to prevent it by obviating the necessity of convening separate meetings . It could not be denied that In this country the two great interests—the interests of
labour and the interests of capital—were opposed to each other . Tkey were thero to repudiate the cotton lords and the coal kings , and to demand a complete measure of reform . What did the measure of the association include ? According to the statements which had been put forth it would extend the franchise to 3 , 000 , 000 of electors , including those who now enjoyed it . Now . what was the number of male adults ? Seven millions . Consequently , 4 , 000 , 000 would remain disfranchised . What was this but class legislntion , completing the enfranchisement of the rich , while the poer were excluded . He had on the previous day challenged the president of the association ( Sis J . Walmsley ) . He now repeated the challenge to meet him in public to discuss the question fully and fairly either in that hall or any place which he mkht name .
Sir J . Waimslet said that having been challenged , he would now accept the challenge . Mr . Jones had put before them as facts what he could prove to be fallacies . He would not reply to him on the question of labour and capital , but content himself with asking the working men of this country what they could do without capital . ( Hear , hear . ) They had been told that the scheme of the association would increase the number of electors only to 3 , 000 , 000 , and that the association bad said so . That was not true . ( Cheers . ) It appeared from a parliamentary document that the num-5 n nn ° l houses , in England . ^" t and Scotland , was 3 , 280 , 000 ; in Ireland , 1 , 100 , 000 ; making a total of 4 o 50 , 000 . ( Hear , hear . ) They knew what ' the population was . Mr . Jones had told them that there were 7 , 000 , 000 adult males . He would be glad to hear how that was
established . Mr . Jones knew it was a fallacy , and he came before his fellow men to deceive them . ( Cheers and uproar . ) He ( Sir J . Walm 3 ley ) had told them there were only 27 . 450 , 000 persons in the United Kingdam of Great Britain and Ireland . And dividing that number by fire , for adults , the total number of male adults was under C . 000 , 000 . There were 4 , 380 . 000 houses ; and the result would be so far to leave 1 , 200 , 000 disfranchised . Thai 1 , 200 , 000 included those who were in the army and navy , lunatica , and domestic servants entirely under the control of their masters : and be believed , in fact , after all deductions , that the number which would be left disfranchised would but be only 250 , 000 . ( Hear , hear . ) Where , then , was the great difference bstween the Chartist proposition and that of the association ? or what difficulty could there be hereafter in the enfranchised
opening the door to the unenfranchised ? ( Cheerj . ) The association had again and again offered the Charti 3 ts the right hand of fellowship , and had asked them not to be led away by men who , though they advocated the principles of the Charter for sixteen years , had made no progress whatsoever . ( Hear , hear . ) He had worked for them hitherto , and would continue so to do if they took reasonable steps to obtain what they desired . ( Cheers ) Mr . G . Thompson deprecated dissension , observing that tbe great body of the working classes would obtain the Charter whenever they divested themselves of passion , buried the hatchet of discord , and manifested the omnil potence of moral power . ( Cheers . ) On a show of hands , the chairman declared the amendment negatived . The resolution was then carried ; and , at a quarter past eleven , the proceedings terminated .

The inquest , after several adjournments , has terminated by the jury returning the following verdict : — "That deceased died through the bursting of the Bilbery Reservoir , which was defective m its original construction . That the commissioners m permitting the reservoir to remain in its dangerous state had been guilty of wilful and culpable neeligence , and the jury were onl y prevented passing a verdict of manslaughter in consequence ef the commissioners bein <» a corporate body .

came to a peaceiul close . He had survived all his ereat contemporaries who started in the race of fame at the opening of the present century ; but , as in the case of Sir Walter Scott and Southey , for some time backed more physical existence had outlived the glorious vitality of mind and genius .

THURSDAY , March 4 . , HOUSE OF LORDS .-The new J- ?^ Chancellor of England , Lord St . Leonard ' s , arrived at the House of Lords at about half-past eleven o ' clock , and was introduces jo his seat on the woolsack by Lord Lyndhurst and Lord Brougham . The Bishop of Norwich officiated on the occasion . ( From our Second Edition of last week ) FRIDAY , Fkb . 27 . M HOUSE OF LOUDS .-Tbb Polict ov ihb Not' MikistRY .-The Earl of Dbkbt opened the busines s of the sitting by explaining the motives which had induced him to . accept office , and the course be intended to adopt . Thoug l quite unprepared for the resignation of his predece sors at tbe time it took place , seeing no prospect of any other government being speedily formed , and no advantage in the restoration of the Ministrv iust resigned , he felt it to > be lis
duty .-though fully aware of all the difficulties oi in . vu « - tion ,-to accept the task of forming an »« I « " »» t ™ " »» ; With regard to the future policy of his government , he was convinced of the importance of maintaining peace ; but he believed peace could be best maintained by pursuing towards all foreign powers s calm and temperate course of conduct , in words and expressions , as well as in acts ,-and by adhering with strict fidelity to the letter of the obligations imposed upon us by treaty ,-by respecting the independence of all nations , —and their right to manago their own internal affiur * . Though he should rejoice to 886 other nations followine our example in the establishment of
free institutions , we had no right , as a nation , to display prejudice against the form of government adopted-by any country , be " it absolute despotism , limited monarchy , or a constitutional republic . A good understanding with fomga nations , which was of the highest importance to us-could be only prenerved by our maintaining the strictest neutrality in their internal affairs . Our nav / wss never more ethuent than now-he believed it was fully equal to the guarding ot our shores , and the protection of our colonies and commerce in every part of the world . And , while the military service was efficient for all its purposes , it was not so large as to afford cause for jealousy and distrust in foreign powers . He deprecated the attempt to c eate an invasion panic , and said : —The more confident I'feel of the peace of Europethe more I urge on your lordships the imperative
, necessity of now , at this time , and not when the next apprehension may occur , taking the necessary measures , with due deliberation and sufficient promptitude for giving not a large military force to the country , but having that organisation and discipline which , if the moment of danger should arise , would command not only loyal but disciplined forces . ( Hear , hear . ) For the maintenance of the tranquillity of this country , no regular or irregular military force was likely to be required . With regard to foreign refugees in this country , while adhering to the principles of our constitution , he said : — With the disturbances and distractions of foreign countries we have nothing to do ; but when from those difficulties and distractions , exiles and fugitives reaoh the shores of this country , they always have had a right to remain , and
I hope we always shall continue to exhibit the same frank and generous hospitality . But I say also , on tbe other hand , that it is the bounden duty of all those who choose , flying from misfortunes in their own country , here to find a safe and secure asylum— -I say it is their bounden duty not to abuse the rights given to them—not to compromise , at all events , the interests of the country which has received them to her hospitable arms , by carrying on here measures against their own country , which they think they can carry on with comparative safety under the shelter of the English laws . I say further , it is not only ri ht , but it is the duty of her Majesty ' s government without descending to a system of—thank God , we have no English word for it—of espionnagc and surveillance , which is averseto the feelings of the country . I say it
is our duty to keep a guard over the movements of such persons , who may be disposed to abuse our hospitality ; and I say , if any steps hostile to their native country on thepartof those persons come to the knowledge of her Majesty ' s government , it is our right and duty to put that foreign government in possession of the facts , and to place them on their guard , ( Hear , hear . ) Further than this , it is not the right it is the power of the British government to go ; and if those persons , under any circumstances , and from whatever country , attempt to levy war against their own country , that is by law a punishable offence , and it is the duty of her Majesty ' s government to visit such an offence with condign and exemplary punishment . The noble lord , after contrasting the principle on which the British and American tariffs are founded , and
expressing his preference for the latter , thus announced his views as to ' the re-introduction of Protection : —I don ' t shriek from expressing again , as I have on former occasions , and repeating in office what I have stated out of office , that in my individual opinion I see no ground wh y , from that general system of imposing duties on foreign imports the single article of corn should be made a solitary exception . I state this as my opinion , but nt the same time I have always said , and I repeat again , that it is a question which can only be solved by a reference to a well understood and well expressed opinion of the intelligent portion of the community . ( Cheers . ) Any possibility , any idea of dealing with a system sojvast as the financial policy of the country , including in its range not only duties on foreign imports , the custom duties , but also the
incidents and pressure of domestic and local taxation , — I say any scheme so large and extensive requires to be dealt with by a government , strong not only in the confidence of the country , but of parliament , and enabled to carry , with the concurrence of parliament and of the country , measures adopted and matured with that degree of deliberation , care , and foresight which it is impossible any administration can give to the sub ' jeot when called on suddenly to deal with public affairs at the commencement of a parliamentary session . Admitting tbat he had not a majority in the other house , and doubting whether he possessed a majority in the Lords , he was not disposed at once to interrupt tho regular course of legislation . " Under these circumstances her Majesty ' s government will have to appeal to the
forbearance of its opponents , and to the patient indulgence of its friends . But , my lords , I have that confidence in the good sense and judgment of the House of Commons to believo that they will not unnecessarily introduce subjects of a controversial and party character for the mere purpose of interrupting the course of sound and useful legislation , and driving the government out of a moderate and temporate course . There are subjects of a useful oharacter wbich may be brought under the attention of this and the other house of parliament ; and I believe if , avoiding all unnecessary party questions , we apply ourselves to those great measures in whioh the country has long felt an interest—measures of legal reform , simplifying and improving the administration of justice ; measures of social reform , for improving the coudition and comfort of
the people—I believe that , even as a minority in the House of Commons , we shall not uselessly , or dishonourably conduct the government . " Among the social measures , he excluded , however , one important bill . "I do not include one which her Majesty ' s late government thought it necessary to call the attention of parliament to . It was announced by the late government that they intended to introduce , and I believe they did introduce into the other house of parliament , three measures in some degree connected with each other , Tho first for the disfranchiseraent of a borough notoriously corrupt ; the second , for facilitatingthe means of examining into , and correcting and controlling these corruptions in other boroughs , and the third measure comprising a somewhat miscellaneous assortment of topics , but containing , as its
leading feature , large and extensive alterations in the elective system , and the electoral districts , ( Hear , hear , ) He would do all in his power to check bribery , " but , " he continued , " I entreat your lordships , and if lam speaking in the presence of any of them , 1 would entreat the members of the other house of parliament , and I would entreat the country , periously to consider the incalculable danger to the true liberties of the country , of incessantly , time after time , unsettling everything and settling nothing , rendering the country dissatisfied with that which is , without in the slightest degree removing that dissatisfaction by that which you propose to substitute . I believe , for the purpose of improving the education of tho country , no extension of the suffrage is necessary , or will have the slightest effect on it . I feel , and I rejoice to feel , that tho
feeling of tho community at large , the conviction of all elasses , high and low , rich and poor , is this—they have come to the conclusion that the greater the amount of education you are able to give and the more widely you can spread that education throughout the masses of the community , the greater chance there ib for the tranquillity , happiness , and well-being of the country . ( Hear . ) But when I use the word ' education , ' don't let me be misunderstood . I don't moan the mere development of the mental faculties , the mere acquisition of temporal knowledge and mere instruction , useful no doubt , as it may be , which may enable a man to improve his condition in life , and may give him fresh tastes and habits , and the means and opportunity of gratifying those tastes and habits ; but , valuable as that may be , when I speak of
education I speak of this alone—education involving the culture of the mind and the soul , laying the basis and foundation of all knowledge upon the knowledge of the Scripture . Ministers would consider it their duty to uphold and maintain the church in all its integrity , not by penal enactments , but by resisting all attempts at aggression , and by lending the power of the state to support and extend its influence . ' The noble lord concluded with the following peroration . " I hope I have fully stated the princi ples on which we propose to conduct the administration ; reserving only such details as are not now necessary . My lords for my own part , when I look to the difficulties which Burround us , —when Hook to the TliliOUS circu i - stances which must combine to give us a chance of successfully encountering the various great obstacles that impede our path , I- confesB that lam annalled by the maimitudfi
ot the difficulties of the task which I have undertaken ; but I believe that the destinies of a . nation are in the hands of an over-ruling Providence ; and I know that it often is the pleasure of that Great Being to effect his own high objects by weak and unworthy means . In his presence I can solemnly declare , that no motive of personal ambition has led me to disregard the difficult position in which the government is placed . In the course of the discharge of tho great duties I have undertaken , no considerations can sway me , excepting those which have led me to accept officea paramount consideration of public duty , and , with that leeiiGg in my mind ,-with that deep conviction of the Ein « centy of my own motives , trusting to the euidanp . fi ami c ., r > .

obtained the greatest object of personal ambition , but I shall have effected one of the highest objects of human being , the promotion of peace upon earth and good will among men , the advancement of sooial , moral , and religious improvement of the country , and I shall have well contributed to the safety and honour of the sovereign and her dominions . " ( Loud cheers . ) Earl Grey strongly deprecated any return to protective duties , and urged especially on Ministers to explain distinctly their views on this question at the earliest moment . Earl Fiizwiluam complimented the new Premier on the general principles laid down in his Bpeech , and rejoiced that he did not intend to proceed with tbe Reform Bill of the late government . After a few words from the Marquis of Clanbioardx , who took a similar view to that of Earl Grey ,
The Earl of Aberdeen expressed his determined adherence to the commercial policy of tho late Sir R . Peel . Lord Brougham spoke in favour of the maintenance of free trade , and urged Lord Derby to proceed with the meafcUtes for amending tlie law . The Earl of Derby intimated that legal reform was amongst the questions he proposed to ask parliament to turn its attention to . He moved that the house should meet on Monday to proceed with judicial business , which was agreed to ; and their lordships adjourned at seven o ' clock . - HOUSE OF COM MONS .-The representatives of the new ministry ( consisting only of the Secretaries of the Treasury , Messrs .

Friends , the above is an exact state of the financial affairs of the Association . Mr . Jones , in his ' Notes' of this week , jumps at the amount both Dr . and Cr . ; but when his statement is contrasted with this , it will not say much for either his veracity or judgment . He also says if his advice had been taken , ' the debt would never have been incurred . ' This is the first time Mr . Jones said any such , thing , and as so much is said just now about the untruthfulness of other journals , we hope Mr . Jones -will take the hint .
Wa have received a letter from the Finabury locality , objecting to Messrs . Hunt and Le Blond having seats on this committee , because they were not elected in accordance with the Chartist organization . When two candidates only are nominated for a borough , we never knew of an election contest . We think it a pity that men seeking political power should have Buch a vague knowledge how to use it .
