to work for themselves (the Masters)-As to the system of education, some of the boys were found to be ignorant whether the word "Europe implied a man, a place, or a thing." (A laugh.) Not only were the objects of these charities perverted; but the Secretary prevented all complaints from reaching the Committee, by refusing to present memorials from complainants. There was an understanding, indeed, between the registrar and the masters of these schools, who constantly made him presents, and advanced monies without interest. Sir J. N. concluded by moving, “That a humble address be presented to his Majesty, expressive of the deep sense of regret and indignation with which this House bas perused the details of the unwarrantable cruelties practised on the children in the several charter schools of Ireland, as contained in the reports of the Commissioners of education; and praying that his Majesty will be graciously pleased to direct his law officers to institute criminal prosecutions against the abettors of those dreadful outrages, as far as they may be amenable to the laws for the same.' (Hear, hear!)

A conversation took place. Mr. PEEL said he had no wish to screen offenders, but was anxious that they should have a fair trial, and not be prejudged. He hoped the Hon. Baronet would leave out those words which assumed the guilt of the parties. If he did not, he should be obliged to oppose it on a principle of justice.

Sir J. NEWPORT then altered his resolution in the manner suggested by the Secretary for the Home Department.

The resolution thus altered was then put, and agreed to without a division.

THE DUKE OF CUMBERLAND'S ANNUITY BILL.

The bringing up the report was strongly opposed by Mr. BROUGHAM and Mr. WARRE, the latter of whom moved that it be brought up this day six months. This motion was negatived by 106 to 60.

BUCKINGHAM HOUSE.

such was their crooked habit, they could not take a straight forward
course, even when nothing stood in their way. Had they only renewed
the application in its former shape, with the simple statement, that his
Royal Highness, after ten years absence, was desirous of returning to
England with his family, in the only way that, honourably he could return,
viz. by being placed upon the same footing with the other branches of the
Crown, the present objections would not have existed; but in place of a
grant of 6000l. to the only party wishing it, they called upon Parliament
for double the amount, for reasons false in themselves, or which, if true,
were revolting to the feelings of the people, and humiliating to all parties,
including that Personage whose splendid income from the Country had
hitherto saved that application to Parliament which the Chancellor of the
Exchequer, the guardian of the Public Purse, now deemed necessary.
The gallant Member procceded to defend the character of the Duke
of Cumberland, whom, he said, had been grossly calumniated. That
he was a Tory, was to be attributed to his being born aud educa-
cated at Court, and having a Bishop for his tutor; and like
all other Turies, whatever they might pretend, he was an enemy
to civil and religious liberty. But in private life bis Royal Highness was
a manly, open, honourable character; a kind and affectionate husband;
further, he was neither a spendthrift nor a gambler, but from the liberality
of his nature had been led into difficulties. His unpopularity had been
wrongly ascribed to his marriage; the real ground had been stated by
an Hon. Member, viz.—his zeal in the service of those who, by their
"No Popery" cry, had turned out their opponents. But the crime brought
its own punishment, in the resentment of the persons offended, and the
desertion of his own party, especially that individual who had made a tool of
him, as he had since made of another, and who, for that last act, desèrved ́
impeachmant as much as any Minister yet brought to the scaffold.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER protested, that the sole object of
Ministers in recommending this grant, was the proper education of the
young Prince.

Mr. TIERNEY said, his Majesty's Message omitted a very important particular, namely, that the young Princess for whom a provision was now' made, had lost her father; which was a sufficient reason for the grant. But the vote to the Duke of Cumberland was quite another affair. They were called upon to admit, that the child of a younger branch of the Royal Family, four degrees from the Crown, was entitled to apply to Parlia ment for a provision, and that provision 6,0007. a year. There was no precedent for such an application. No Parliamentary provision was made for the Duke of Sussex until he was 29; for the Duke of Cambridge until he was 28; for the Duke of Kent until he was 32; or for the Duke of Cumberland until he was 28. Besides, it was impossible that the child, could need 6,000l. a year. On cooler consideration, he (Mr. Tierney) doubted the advantage of bringing the child to England. It was cruel to tear a child from its parents; and for what purpose?"We all recollect," continued the Right Hon. Gentleman, “that his late Majesty, whose memory we cherish with so much affection and veneration, so far from think-" to Germany (a laugh). And why, on the principle laid down, did they' not go on? Why did they not take his child from the Duke of Cambridge, and educate him? But it was clearly only a pretext for the grant.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER observed, that Carlton Palace was at the present in a very dilapidated state. It was so far unsafe to inhabit it, that, whenever a large assembly was held in the upper rooms, it became necessary to prop up the lower ones. Under such circumstances it was conceived that it might be more convenient to abandon Carlton House entirely, and make Buckingham Palace the Royal residence. By this arrangement, on part of the ground which Carlton House now occupied, a new building for the Royal Academy might be erected, and probably it would also afford one for the intended National Gallery. It would be easy, upon other portions of this scite, to erect a series of handsome dwellingHouses, the value of which would cover a considerable portion of the expense to be incurred; but as this must be a matter for profit hereafter, and money was wanted immediately for the repair and fitment of the new residence, it would be requisite for Parliament to take measures with re-ing it necessary to bring his sons from Germany, actually sent his sons, spect to that supply. It was intended to cover the whole of Carlton House gardens with buildings; and he believed the plan proposed for the intended alterations at Buckingham House would give general satisfaction. He then moved the following resolution—“ That it was expedient to authorize part of the landed revenues of the Crown to be disposed of, for the repairs and alteration of Buckingham Palace."

Mr. ELLICE trusted that Buckingham Palace, when it was completed, would be such as would do credit to the national taste, and not such a matter as had been erected at Brighton and other places. The resolution was agreed to.

Friday, June 10.

GRANT TO THE DUKE OE CUMBERLAND.

On the third reading of the Duke of Cumberland's Annuity Bill, The Marquis of TAVISTOCK strongly objected to it upon three grounds; first, because it was more than the professed purpose required, secondly, because a grant to a child of the Royal Family at such an age would be a most inconvenient precedent; lastly, and more than all the rest, because it was demanded for one purpose, and was going to be applied to another. (Hear.) Although he had not the honour of a personal acquaintance with him, he had a high respect for the integrity of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and was sincerely sorry that Right Hon. Gentleman had not come down to Parliament in his usual straight-forward way, and ask the House at once to make an addition of 6000l. to the Duke of Cumberland's income. Had that course been manfully adopted, he, for one, should not have objected to the proposition; for he had not heard any direct charge against his Royal Highness, although he feared he had forfeited the good opinion of the people, for which, however, he had been sufficiently punished already. He considered the present proceeding indirect and dishonest; and one, of which in private life he was convinced the Right Hon. Gentleman would be incapable. The Noble Marquis concluded by complimenting Ministers on the liberal system they had lately adopted, and expressing his astonishment, that they should risk a merited popularity by becoming parties to such a juggle as this grant.

General PALMER, having formerly voted for the increased allowance to the Duke of Cumberland, and considering its refusal unjust to that Prince and insulting to the Crown, would support the present Bill solely upon that ground, condemning it in all other respects. The only real enemies of the Crown were its own Ministers, who always contrived to bring it into discredit. They either did not dare to tell the Crown the truth, or else,

Mr. CANNING contended, that on the one hand it would be quite optional for the Duke to come to England, while on the other, if he did not come, Ministers were bound to take care of the application of the money. to the purposes for which it was voted. Surely no Hon. Member could believe, that if his Royal Highness returned to England, the necessary increase in his expenses, including the education of his son, would be more than covered by 6,000l. a year. That sum might not perhaps be expended upon the education of the young Prince during the first year or two; but as a greater sum would be needed when he came to be 15 or 16, he (Mr. Canning) considered the grant no more than a fair average for the whole minority; it was in fact only what was absolutely necessary. The Right Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Tierney) spoke of want of precedent, and referred to the case of the children of his late Majesty; but that case did. not apply, for those children lived under the same roof as their father, and were in immediate succession to the Crown. He disclaimed the dishonest motives imputed to Ministers.

Mr. BROUGHAM remarked, that if such were the fact, the Royal roof was of no inconsiderable extent, for some of those young Princes were at Lisbon, Gibraltar, Halifax, Nova Scotia, and Canada; one was in command of a province, and another of a garrison-and even when under the Royal roof, they were emancipated from the Royal controul, and connected only from being the sons of one father. But the case of the lute Duke of Gloucester was in point. He was the nephew of the King. A provision was made, which was not to take effect but at the demise of the Duke of Gloucester, the father of the child. This was the precedent which ought to be followed in the present instance. The present measure went to establish the principle, that the instant a grandson or nephew of a King is born, the father being already provided for, Parliament must provide for such child. The Learned Gentleman proceeded to eulogize the Duke of Sussex, who had never applied for or received Parliamentary aid, and who, notwithstanding the unhappy circumstances of his marriage, which limited his income to 13,000l. a-year, had reduced his debt from 109,000l. to a sum hardly worth naming, without deducting a farthing from a single creditor, or resorting to meaus degrading to his rank.

On a division, the third reading was carried by 170 to 121. Two amendments proposed by Mr. BROUGHAM,➡one, to vest the 60907, a-year

THE Foreign arrivals of the week have been productive of very little specific intelligence. A reported invasion of the island of Cuba by Mexican expedition, is not without interest, both as tending to a rescue of that fine island from the wretched yoke of Spain, and as adding to the strength and safety of the New Governments. From Greece we hear of a decided defeat of the Albanian forces under REDSCHID PACHA, which is doubtless substantially true, if exaggerated. The miserable King of Spain has issued a decree which outdoes even all his outdoings. The innkeepers are to allow of no political conversation at all in their houses, nor the circulation, of reports of any kind; and all pamphlets whatever are to be given up to the authorities. These absurdities of course prove the strength of the feeling which it it is in this oppressed country, must at no distant period more or less is attempted to keep down; and also that human nature, degraded as right itself.-Dispatches have arrived from the East Indies, bringing an account of the continued resistance of the Burmese, who seem no way intimidated at their recent disasters.

THE PROTESTANT CHAMPION!"The beginning of a paragraph in the last Taunton Courier somewhat alarmed us. It stated, that Sir Thos. LETHBRIDGE was on Tuesday drawn in his carriage through the town by the people, instead of horses. The concluding sentence, however, explained all: Two hogsheads of beer were given away on the Parade, in the course of the afternoon, and divers pugilistic contests, with much uproar, ensued on the occasion." An appropriate finish-and a fit compliment to the brute force attitude which such Senators as Sir THOMAS, puffed into self-conceit by the flattery of the Clerical Sycophants who always feed upon stupid Squires, hold towards six millions of their fellow. creatures. In a borough like Taunton, situated in an agricultural county, where farmers' labourers are paid sixpence or eightpence a day, some wretches will always be found to grovel before a man of local influence if he will descend to purchase their "sweet voices" by a few barrels of beer or cyder.
