ted to a Select Committee.-Mr. Hume spoke in favour of the Select Committee as the course which best agreed with the present crude state of the Bill.-Sir A. Agnew was for a committee of the whole House.-The Chancellor of the Exchequer was also for a Committee of the whole House, but thought the measure would become a dead letter.-Sir R. Peel expressed serious doubts whether Parliament could promote the observance of the

Sabbath by legislating on the subject. He observed that the Sabbath-day was never better observed than at present, and declared himself against the attempt to get rid of the Bill by a side wind.—Mr. Hawes withdrew his amendment.-A long and desultory discussion followed; and the Bill, having passed through the Committee, was ordered, with its amendments, to be printed.

FOREIGN NEWS.

The French Chamber of Peers is proceeding, in its character of a state tribunal, with the trial of the persons who have been thirteen months imprisoned for alleged participation in the insurrectionary movements by which France was disturbed in the spring of last year. The trials are going on in the absence of the majority of the accused. Of the 121 prisoners, 93 refused to permit the act of accusation to be read until counsel appointed by themselves should be present. The free selection of counsel had been previously denied by the Court. After frequent and violent scenes of uproar, the reading of the act of accusation was commenced. It was of great length, and the reading of it occupied several days. Talleyrand, Gerard, Soult, and some others, have peremptorily refused to sit as judges on this trial; and 91 persons, of political consequence, who signed a protest against the jurisdiction of the peers, have been summoned before their tribunal.

On the 23d of April, the Chamber of Deputies divided on the Anti-Slavery question, and the emancipation of the slaves was refused by a majority of 240 to 51. The sum required for the indemnity to the planters appears to have principally weighed with the Chamber in coming to this decision. The example of England was repudiated by those who defend the cause of the slave owners, on the ground that the French slaves were not so well prepared for emancipation as the English.

SPAIN.

There is no immediate prospect of the termination of the civil war which still unfortunately rages in the northern provinces. It appears that a series of battles was fought, from the 20th to the 24th of April, between the armies of Valdez and Zumalacarreguy, in which, according to all the accounts which have reached us, the latter was victorious.

On the 11th of April, Martinez de la Rosa, in the Procuradores, said that by law every convent should number at least

12 monks, and as 890 convents were found not to have so many, they would be suppressed. The monastic population had much diminished, and it was better to extinguish it gradually and legally than after any abrupt or revolutionary fashion.

PORTUGAL.

Her Majesty closed the session on the 22nd April. She deplores in her speech the loss of her husband. The favourable prospects opening for Portugal are dwelt upon, and she promises the utmost attention to economy and the refomation of abuses. A partial change of Ministry has taken place in Portugal, the Duke de Palmella and M. Fescaz having resigned. The Duke's successor, as Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, is the Count de Villa Real.

Both Chambers have voted the perpetual exclusion of Don Miguel. A secret session was held on the 9th of April, to consider the Queen's new marriage, and to fix the succession, in case of her demise without issue, when only princes not connected with the Holy Alliance, or with powerful states, were declared eligible candidates for her Majesty's hand. The Queen has replied to the message of the Chambers, with calm and becoming dignity, that as a Portuguese and a Queen she shall adopt that course which the Chambers consider the best calculated for the good of Portugal.

PERSIA.

Accounts from Persia announce the signal success of our gallant countryman, Sir Henry Bethune, in frustrating the rebellious machinations recently carried on against the government of the new Shah, by whom he had been dispatched to Ispahan to take possession of that capital. Sir Henry, by forced marches and other military manoeuvres, intercepted the insurgent Princes in their advance on Ispahan, and completely defeated, with inferior numbers, their army of 5,000 troops, principally cavalry. The camp and baggage of the hostile chiefs, together with their entire force of infantry, fell into the hands of the victors.

CAPE OF GOOD HOPE.

There has been a serious irruption of the Caffres, who have committed many atrocities on the settlers. The whole of the English and Dutch residents, from the age of sixteen to sixty, have been under arms, subject to martial law and doing duty as soldiers, for the protection of the community. The attack of the Caffres had been combined and simultaneous, the Scotch locations of Bavarian River and Winterberg, the Koonap, Albany, and the district of Utenhague, having been attacked at the same time. Intelligence of the 22nd of March states, that the forces under the Field Commandant had had a sharp action with a great body

of the Caffres, and it was only by the greatest bravery and intrepidity that the troops were enabled to fight their way through the savages-but with the loss of about thirteen killed and wounded. In the neighbourhood of Fort Willshire, Col. Smith had fallen in with a body of the enemy, and pursued the Caffres to a considerable distance, with a loss, however, of nine killed and thirteen wounded. The enemy had 150 killed. The attacks of the Caffres, made between the date of the former advices, were the most serious that had occurred; but, notwithstanding they had always been defeated, still they renewed their attacks with unabated obstinacy and courage.

DOMESTIC OCCURRENCES.

May 11. Lord Mulgrave made his public entry into Dublin, as Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. He was met by the city authorities at Old Ball's Bridge, which that morning had been rechristened Mulgrave Bridge, in compliment to his Excellency. The inhabitants of Dublin and its vicinity had accompanied his lordship and suite from Kingstown, and the reception accorded to him was of the most flattering description. There could not be less than 100,000 people assembled to honour his Majesty's representative.

Cottage Allotment System.-We rejoice to observe the successful progress of this laudable system in various parts of the country, which has undoubtedly a tendency to raise the labouring classes, and with it renew the almost lost sense of independence which formerly distinguished the English labourers. Among the earliest promoters of the cottage-allotment system, which for several years he has laboured to establish and extend, occurs the name of the Venerable Bishop of Bath and Wells. At a recent meeting of the Labourer's Friend Society, this learned and exemplary Prelate presided, and thus spoke of the cottage-allotment system in his address from the chair"In the first place, it secured the poor man against the pressure of extreme want-in the second, it induced habits of industry, sobriety, and a healthy state of moral and religious feeling. The benefits arising from small allotments of land he would notice as experienced in his own case. He allowed the poor man a rood or a rood and a half of ground at ten shillings, the produce of which was five guineas. He could assure the Society that the plan had completely answered in every respect, where it had been adopted."

Manufacturing Prosperity.-The desperate remedy of emigration, pursued of

late to a great extent in this country, is likely to be superseded by some useful experiments which are now making in the manufacturing districts, and which will, in some degree, clear the agricultural parishes of the South and West of England of their redundant popu lation. It appears that there is at present a great demand for labour in Lancashire and Cheshire, and that a number of labourers in Buckinghamshire, who had to complain of low wages and scanty employ, having, through the parishofficer, entered into a negotiation with Mr. Ashworth and Messrs. Grey, at Quarry-bank, near Wilmslow, Lancashire, were, with their families, conveyed to the latter place, where they all found full employ, at good wages, the fathers as labourers, and such of the children as were of sufficient age in the cotton factories, the latter being engaged at progressive salaries, commencing with 5s. per week. The extent to which employment can be provided in Lancashire and Cheshire, (says the Manchester Guardian), is at the present time very great, and when the new mills which are now in course of erection shall be completed, the demand for labour will be still more extensive. In the neighbourhood of Stalybridge alone there are said to be mills now building which will furnish employment for at least 3000 working people; so that an additional population of at least 6 or 7000 persons will be necessary in that quarter. The Stockport Advertiser says, Such is the scarcity of hands in the power-loom manufactories of this town, that 500 additional persons could be put to work immediately, if they could be obtained." The agricultural districts of Lancashire, Cheshire, and Yorkshire, which have heretofore afforded considerable numbers of hands,

appear to have been entirely cleared of their superabundant population, and have ceased to yield any further supplies; and there is, therefore, an excellent opening for those who may be disposed to remove from the South.

The agricultural labourers in the neigh bourhood of Rye are in a very unsettled state, having made a strike for wages, and being much dissatisfied with the provisions of the New Poor Law Bill. A meeting of nearly 500 labourers lately took place, when a union was formed, which now consists of upwards of 1,000 members, and a system was organised for sup porting the general body.

Disturbances have occurred among the agricultural labourers at Bedford. The paupers demanded relief in money, and upon the refusal of their demands, they attacked the house in which the guardians were assembled, broke the windows, and threatened further violence. The local magistrates became alarmed, and finding the civil force of the town wholly inadequate to the preservation of the peace, made application for assistance to the Home-office, upon which twenty men of the metropolitan police were despatched to their aid. The appearance of this force immediately restored order, and through their exertions ten of the ringleaders have been arrested and lodged in prison.

By order of the Poor Law Commissioners, a new workhouse is to be erected at Leeds. The Commissioners have sent two sets of plans to the workhouse committee, for their inspection; they are prepared by a London architect, and the cost is estimated to be from 6,000 to 6,500l.

The Military.The strength of the army is to remain at the same reduced numbers which the Ministry of last year brought it down to-viz.: 5914 horses, 4497 officers, 6420 non-commissioned officers, 70,354 rank and file, making a total of 81,271 men, independent of the four regiments of dragoons, and 20 regiments of foot, amounting to 19,720 men, serving in India, and at the expense of the land revenue of that country. The total sum required is 5,784,8071 18s. 6d., being 160,1207. 11s. 11d. less than last year. The effective force at home, in Great Britain, on the 1st of February, 1835, was 20,648; in Ireland, 16,338 (4300 less than last year); colonies and foreign garrisons, 28,582; in India, 14,622.

The interior of Beer Church, Dorset, is now undergoing an entire restoration and repair, from the proceeds of a munificent bequest of 4007. from the Rev. W.

Williams, the late incumbent. To this act of one of the clergy, may be added another on the part of the Rev. Edmund Stuart, rector of Houghton, who has built an aisle to his church for the accommodation of his parishioners, at an expense of 3007. entirely at his own charge.

LONDON AND ITS VICINITY.

April 30. The anniversary of the Royal Humane Society was celebrated this day, Vice-Admiral Sir E. Codrington, V.P. in the chair, supported by Capt. Lord Arthur Lennox, Mr. Baron Gurney, Sir C. Colville, Sir J. Phillippart, Col. Clitheroe, B. Hawes, jun. esq. M.P., &c. After " Prosperity to the Royal Humane Society," B. Hawes, esq. the Treasurer, made an eloquent appeal, and congratulated the Society on its prosperity. Among other benefactions announced, were 10001. bequeathed by B. Hawes, esq. of Worthing, brother of Dr. Hawes, the founder of the Society; 100%. from the President, the Duke of Northumberland, his 16th donation to the same amount; 5001. from Arthur B. Blakiston, esq., one of the present Committee, towards the New Receiving-house in Hydepark, and 100/. from Hon. Miss Harley.

The gallant Admiral then presented the honorary medallions to the several persons who were, either in their own person or through their representatives, to receive them. The first was to Lieut. Baker, of the Coast Guard Service at Hythe, who had so nobly risked his life in boarding the wreck of the Kingston, and saving five of her crew and the cargo. The second was to a young man named Cole, who was represented by the very boy whose life he saved. The third was to another little boy, named Felstead, who, when in the Lower School of Greenwich, plunged into the Thames and saved a man. The fourth to David Litton, esq., of Dublin, who risked his life to save that of a drowning woman. The fifth to Mrs J. Savory, of Bondstreet, who plunged into the sea at Little Hampton, and rescued a little child. The sixth was to Lieut. Keys, R. N., who had disabled himself for life in his humane exertions to save the lives of eleven persons, which he accomplished. The next medallion was presented to Lord Arthur Lennox, who, when on his passage to Scotland on board the James Watt steamer, nobly plunged into the sea off Scarborough to the relief of a drowning man. Honorary medallions had also been awarded to seven other individuals.

Towards the close of the evening the

gallant Admiral, in adverting to the uncertainty of life and the importance of this Institution, announced, that no later than last year the Treasurer of the Society, Mr. Hawes, who sat opposite to him, who was the son of the founder, who had been persevering in his humane exertions to promote the welfare of the Society for half a century, was himself saved from being drowned in the St. Katherine's Docks.

May 13. This morning the tide in

the river Thames rose to a most extraordinary height, overflowing its banks, and inundating the streets and quays. Wapping High-street and the Tower Wharf were for some time under water; and in the former place the flood was so great, that a wherry could be navigated over the road. The inundation appears to have done considerable damage alongshore. The north-east wind which had prevailed, combined with the heavy rains, caused this extraordinary high tide.

PROMOTIONS,

GAZETTE PROMOTIONS.

May 15. At the Central Criminal Court, Patrick Carroll, a corporal of Marines, was found guilty of the murder of Mrs. Browning, of the Britannia public-house at Woolwich, on the 27th of April. He committed the desperate act by repeated stabs of his bayonet, as it is supposed in a fit of jealousy. The jury, on the trial, expressed their opinion that it was very improper to allow soldiers to wear their side-arms when off duty. He was executed on the 18th.

THEATRICAL REGISTER.

May 15. A new opera, the production of Donizetti, and originally written for the Italian opera at Paris, was brought forward, and met with complete success. The Queen, accompanied with a large party, honoured the performance with her presence.
