      LEICESTER . —^ Monday , June 19 th was a day ofjinusual excitement . For » seriea of years the Cowand Horseleepers in Lelcesterhave monopolizad the " Freeman ' s Common , " a piece of land contain ing 120 acres , which has been bequeathed by benevolent persons for the use of the poor freemanand freemen ' s widows . In the month of April Jast , ihereTras a strong contest between theriehand poor memen , in the eleetion of Deputies to manage the ^ mtts of the freemen for the next year . At the close of the contest there were a large majority in favour of the poor , who determined on breaking up the land , and dividing it ont into lots of 500 yards to each freeman and freeman's widow for gardens .

      The Cowkeepers , on learning the determination of the Deputies , at once moved for an injunction in the Court of Chancery to restrain the Depnties . An Injunction was granted to stay the breaking up of the land 1 but the Vice Chancellor decided that the Deputies could mow the grass , and sell it , and distribute the proceeds amongst the freemen and freemen ' s widows . Healsocrdered the Cowkeepersto pay tiie cost of the injunction . In consequence of this victory over the monopolizers , tke poor paraded the streets of Leicester on Monday hist , with a brass band ' and numbers of banners bearing * various devices . One was very conspicuous , having a representation « f a horse and a cow with

      their ribs - protruding through their skins and looking very wistful at each other j the cow Baying to the horse , I wish we were on the Free man ' s Common again . " To which the horse was made to reply , "So do I . " The freemen walked in procession , with wands , Ac ^ and they were followed by three carriage load of freemen ' s widows Before the above demonstration was bronght to a close , another of a different character made its appearance in the streets . Several hundred men were seen , in procession , headed by a large placard , having upon it , " More aggressions of the glove manufactures to crush the working men . " This was followed by a black banner , having painted on

      it a white slave , with his clothes all tattered and torn into rags ; and he apparently in a dying state . It was inscribed with the words , * The white slave , or dying operative . " ** Onr rights , and nothing less . " The procession proceeded through iha streets in an orderly manner to the different glove manufactories , soliciting their owners to give the same rate of wages as agreed to in the month of May last , which was a reduction of nine per cent , on the wages of last year . Messrs . Bailey , Cook , Warner , Mills , Howe , Thorpe , Hiehards , Preston , and Brampton , all agreed to give the price but on soliciting the Messrs . Biggs , Mr . William , the Dresent Mayor ;—the concocior of the "

      Midland Counties Charter f the great " Reformer of the House of Lords ; " the might ; agitator for a Repeal of the Corn Laws ; the snpposed philanthropist ; the great teacher of equality ; the man who , in J 832 , harangued the people on the Reform Bill , and told them to prepare themselves to march to Birmingham ; yes , this man told the deputation " he should hold no conference with them ; and if they broke the peace , by committing acts of vagrancy , or any tiling else , he should punish them to the utmost rigour of the law ! ' * The deputation

      wanted to reason with him . He haughtily returned for answer , " you have heard what I have saia ; you know what I mean ; you can go . " On this , the band played before his warehonse , and in his very teesh ' , the Dead March . The reduction HE offers ii about 25 per cent less than ihe hands received last year ! Before the works of Messrs . Chamberlain and Newton , who were quite as obstinate as the Biggs ' s , ( all Corn Law Repealers to procure " ipGH TPAG 2 S for the workmen , ") the band played the *• Rogue ' s March . " After this each one dispersed to his home .

He and his son then decamped . The magistrates inflicted a fine of £ 5 , including costs .

The oldest inhabitant can not remember having seen so few drunken people , at such a period of festivity .

BIuiway Collision ih the Sbjimit Tunnel . — A frJRh-fttl accident ocenrred ion Wednesday at noon in the centre of the Snmmit Tunnel !; the mail train running into a luggage train . The mail train leaves Manchester at ten minutes before eleven o'clock , a jl , and travels at a great speed . No intimation had been given to the driver on entering the ( tunnel that a luggage train was only just in advance , and the steam prevented him from seeing

      thought at the end of the train . The consequence wa § that when about half way through the tunnel , it overtook , and dashed into theluggagc train , smashing two or three carriages , but , providentially , not hnrtingan individual . Considerable delay occurred in the transit of the trains , the wreck of the broken carriages having to be removed from the line of rails on which theaccident happened . - While this was being donB the subsequent trains passed through on the south line . Astringent inquiry into the origin of thia disaster onght to be made , ; and the public mind fully relieved from all apprehension of futnre accident in such a spot . A collision on the railway is bad enough anywhere ; but really frightful when it occurs in the bowels of the earth . Great blame attaches , either to the Company in not having a watchman at the mouth of the tunnel or to the watchman , if one is stationed there .

It consisted of about 500 horsemen , and from 2 , 000 to 3 , 000 on foot . They entered the town [ a ^ Water > street * gate , and went round Pictpn ' s Monument , over the quajr , and by thehall , where the magistrateswereassembled , but committed no outrage py the way . They then passed on to the workhouse , into which an entrance was forced , and the work' of destruction commenced . A few minutes after the procession passed the bridge , of

      a troop the 4 th Dragoons entered the ' town , What was doing at the ; workhouse was communicated to the magistrates ; aud one of them , T . C . Morris , Esq ., heading the military , rode off briskly to the workhouse ; and so unexpectedly did they come upon the mob who were within its large enclosure , that about 100 persons were captured by them . But numbers escaped over the wall , many ieaving their horses behind . Some persons have been iDjured in various ! ' ways , but none seriously . There cannot be a doubt that if the cavalry had not arrived at the critical moment they did , the whole place would have been in a blaze .

      Of moss captured , the women were liberated .

      HOUSE OF COMMONS .-Tuesday , June 20 . At the hour usually devoted to private business , Mr . J . Wortley moved ; the second reading of tbe bill entitled " An Act to deplare the illegitimacy of oertain persons alleged or claiming to be children of the Most Hon . George Ferrars , Marquis of Townshend . " The bill had been sent down to them from tho House of Lords , where it had undergone the fullest investigation , and was intended to secure to the parties promoting it the honours and privileges of the peerage to which they claimed to be entitled . * .

      Mr . C . Buller moved , that the bill be read a second time that davfsix months . He threw overboard all the facts mentioned by his noble and learned friend opposite' aud proved before the House of Lords ; aud argued the impropriety of passing such a measure upon [ general principles . He admitted that those facts involved a monsirous hardship ob th « Townshend family . He sympathised with the feelings of Lord C . Townshend , who saw his succession to the hereditary honours of his family endangered ; but ho sympathised also with the unfortunate Marchioness of Townshend , who had been bound by law to a man whom she could not but loathe , and from whom that very law prevented her from obtaining a release . He was therefore not

      surprised that she , who had acted the part of a faithful and affectionate consort to Mr . M&rgett ' s , should at last determine that " the law , which had made her children illegitimate , should also make them legitimate , aud that the law which made the Marquis of Towashend her husband should also make hiai the father of those children . " Admitting , however , the monstrous hardship which such a determination mght inflict upon the [ Town shend family , he objected to the present measure , as being a partial remedy for it . Why should it be introduced for the benefit of the peerage alone % '• Wny not introduce a general law , affecting not only peerages , but also the estates of private individuals ? The House divided , when there appeared , —

      For the second reading ... ... 353 Against it 49 Majority 104 The bill was ^ thon read a second time , and ordered to be committed to a committee of selection . Mr . Pakington gave notice , on the part of Lord Ashley , that on me 4 th of July , he would move for leave to bring in a bill for tho improvement of the condition of the industrious classes by the ' establishment of the alletment system and of a general loan society . A " talk" then ensued on the " Danish Claims " brought forward by Mr . Hawos , who wished to get some £ 220 , 000 for " compensation "; to " our merchants" for losses incurred by them durins : the war with Denmark . He ! was resisted by the Chancellor of the Exchequer , who told him that ho had no such sum to sparo .

      SEPTENNIAL ACT , \ Mr . Sharman Crawforb then rose to move for leave to biiug in a bill to repeal the act of the 18 th ye&r of Geo . I ., statute 11 , c . 38 , for extending the duration of Parliament to seven years . , The Hon . Gentleman recapitulated the various acts which had been passed to regulate the duration of Parliament , and expressed hi 3 opiniou that , solong as Parliaments existed for seven years , there could be no security for public liberty and the rights of the people . Ac

      to the duration to which he should propose to return , he was willing to accept the period fixed by 6 Wm , and Mary , c . 11—namely , three years , though in his own opinion a much ( shorter period would be fairer towards the public . ; If he Members of that House bad been more subjected to popular opinion , by a shorter tenure of their seats , a great part of that , unjust and mischievous legislation which had so oppressed and injured the people would never have been ventured upon . Dr . Bowiung seconded the motion .

      Sir James Graham : considered it decidedly beneficial to the public that a somewhat extended duration should be given to Parliaments . The whole experience of years past proved that the average duration of Parliaments was not more than four years , a period which , in his opinioiu answered every purpose of making members responsible to the public , while it ] gave them time to acquire that practical experience which was so essential to sound legislation . ' The House then divided , — For tbe motion 23 Against it ... 46 Majority against the motion —23 Lord Clements renewed his motion for the production of tbe correspondence connected with the disbanding of the yeomanry corps in Ireland , to which '

      Lord Eliot gave [ the same reply as on a former occasion , namely , that he was willing to furnish copies of all orders for the disbanding ;" . of the yeomanry , with some selections , omitting from the correspondence whatever was of a personal or superfluous nature . Lord Clements accepted the offer , and the returns were ordered . The report of the Princess Augusta ' s Annuity Bll was brought up , and the other orders being disposed of , the House adjourned .

      Wepnesday , June 21 . The Princess Augusta ' s Annuity Bill was read a third time , and passed . ' ;

      WASTE LANDS BILL . Mr . Fkbrand said , as the select committee on the allotment of waste lands had not yet' made their report , he proposed to postpone the second reading of ihe Waste Landfe Allotment Bill till it should be ready . —Order disobarged , and fixed for Wednesday next . . After the second reading of the Scientific Societies ' Biil had been moved and agreed to , and some " talk " had been had on the Coroners * Bill , Lord Worsley ' s Commons Inclosure Bill was proposed for second reading , which was : met by Colonel Sibtho&p with an amendment , that it be read that day six months . Mr . Stuart Wortley recommended the postponement of the bill , on the ground of its importance and complicity .

      Lord Worsley ! felt strongly the importance of carrying forward ' the bill during the present session . There were nearly two million acres of waste land in the country , which could be reclaimed at an expence of £ 12 an aore . by which great employment would be afforded to the labouring population . There was a strong disposition to carry out inolosuree , but parties were deterred by the great expence of separate inclosure acts . He proposed to carry out his measure by the aid of the tithe commissioners ; who , on the application Jof two-thirds , of those : ink rested in an inclosure , should send assistant commissioners to

      examine and report . The commission * , rs to report the progress of all inclosures twioo a year to the Homo-office ; and the House of Commons to have a , veto on any inoldsure , 6 hould one-fourth of those interested object \ to it . He bad endeavoured to ascertain tha probable expence of the working of his measure ; and was satisfied that unopposed inclosures , the expence of which under the present system , amounts to trom £ 400 to £ 600 , would not by the present bill exceed £ 40 . Considering tho capital wbicb nould be invested in reclaiming land , iad the employment wi . ich wou'd L / d afforded , hi . was saiii-fioj that the bili , if passed , woald prove

      an important boon to the interests of agriculture and the country . j Mr . Fbrrand was sorry he could not agree in the measure as it stood . He found in it not one single provision that recognised distinctly thejrights of the poor cottager . If it became law , the poor man never would have * chance of becoming master of a piece of waste land ; and he thought the bill at any rate could not by any possibility be carried out in the manufacturing districts . But though he could not agree to the Bill as it stood , to ) some plan of some such nature they must come , if they would avoid revolution . ( Hear , hear . ) Machinery was increasing to such an extent that not only would the masses now out of employment remain so , but those masses would be greatly increased before long . The new wool-combing machinery would [ alone throw 100 , 000 persons out of employment . What must be the result of such a state of things ? It was in evidence before the Select Committee on the Allotment System , and the evidence was that of a member of the

      House , that m one district , near where he ( Mr . Ferrand ^ resided , the poors' rate was 9 s . 6 i . in the pound ; in other places they were paying a 7 s . rate . Thefarmerscpuldnot long support that state 01 things . He was convinced that by next rent-day one farmer in every five would be paying 5 s . in the pound . It was known that in 1836 and 1837 a vast number of poor labourers had been removed from tho agricultural to the manufacturing districts . He had moved for a return respecting the numbers ' of these poor persons so removed . What was the-result ? Although Mr . Muggridge admitted that as many as 10 , 000 were removed , the return only j accounted for 4 , 928 . Was the House aware of the state of the wool-combing trade at present 1 In Yorkshire aud

      Lancashire thousands of wool-combers got only two days' work in a week . There were many instances where poor men with families had gone with tears in Jtheir eyes to the masters , and asked for two or three stone of wool to comb , in orderj to keep them from starvation ; and the answer was , We are in no want of workmen , but we can give you some work at lj £ d . a stone . " If the House could not pass some such measure as this what were they there for ? They were soon to separate ; and , he asked , had the House during the session passed one singla measure , or done anything to alleviate the existing distress ? There might be a slight stimulus in trade just at present ; but he w ^ as thoroughly convinced that , before long , trade would fall back to

      what it was at Christmas . The Right Hon . Baronet ( Sir j . Graham ) , when he ( Mr . Ferrand ) had asked for leave to bring in a bill for the enclosure of cultivable Waste land , had said that all [ the waste land that was worth cultivation had been enclosed ; would he say so still ! He ( Mr . Ferrand ) was told by a gentleman well acquainted with the district in Lancashire of which he spoke , that there were 200 , 000 acres ef waste land cultivatable there . } The House , in his opinion , was answerable to provide the means of subsistence for the people ; and if they were not able to provide those means he had no hesitation in saying their functions were at an end . He ( Mr . Ferrand ) wanted to know what good the ; waste land did at present . It was true , that some gentlemen might

      find on it the means of a day ' s grouse-shooting ; but he would put it to tho gentlemen of England , whether they were not prepared to j sacrifice their grouse-shooting for the benefit of the poor . Opposed as he was to this bill , his intention was , as soon as the Allotment Committee ! had come to a decision as to the results of the Allotment System to move the second reading of the 1 bill of which he had given notice . He had presented various petitions from his own part of the country , signed by thousands of freeholders and respectable persons . In the parish in which he resided there must be 150 or 200 freeholders , and they with the others

      generally supported his measure . Could the Noble Lord boast of any such support to hip bill among the public outof doors 1 He was aware that the bill would be of some benefit to the labouring classes ; ho knew that no bill had come before the House for some time that was so likely to alleviate the * frightful evils which now prevailed among the working population ; but still he could not agree tio it , because it would deprive the poor of their rights , and to that be would never agree . If , however ) the principle of his bill should be adopted by the l ^ oble Lord , viz ., to give a certain portion of every common enclosed to the poor , then the Noble Lord should have his

      support . j Sir Charles Bdrrell and Mr . Miles approved of Lord Worsley ' s bill . j Mr . Roebuck objected to the bill that its tendency was to create a pauper population connected with the land . Depend upon it , an allotment system would raise a pauper agrarian population in this country . It was better tha' the working classes should be dependant on wages . He did not wish to seo such commons as those adjacent to London appropriated ; their benefit to the health and enjoyment of the populaiiou , especially the working classes , was immense . Moreover , he Baw in tho bill the seeds of many a law-suit . ILet Lord Worsley , and those who thought with him , repeal the Corn laws , and they would provido ] surer and moro abundant employment for the population than anything this bill could do for them . Lord John Manners also wished to see the work

      ing classes dependant ou wages ; but an allotment system would enable them to eke bat their subsistence . He wished Lord Worsley ' s ] bill to be postponed until the report of the committee oi inquiry on the subject of allotmont was inalde . Mr . C . Bulleb paid a compliment to Lord John Manners , for his generous aynjyat-tiies with the poor Aud working classes . Bui he coulfi see no reason for the postponement of the bill , as it established no new principle , and the operation o ' f which he conceived would be exceedingly beneficial . Mr . l \ oebuck ' s objection to the inclosure of commons , on the ground of the health and enjoyment of the population , was met by an express provision of the bill ; and he could not possibly understand why the cultivation of waste lands should not be undertaken for a reason like this . After some observations from Lord Sandon ,

      3 Mr . S . Crawford said he could not let this opportunity pass without stating the reasons why he persisted in his opposition to the measure . He considered that every enclosure bill thai , had passed that session was a robbery of the rights of the poor , and ho looked on this bill as a measure for plundering the poor in a general form withouj ; coming to Parliment to do it . Theie was no provision in the bill that in his opinion adequately jseeured the poor man ' s rights . He therefore should give it his most decided opposition . To talk of playgrounds for the poor in their present state was a ^ n insult ; if they had playgrounds to go to they could not resort to them at present . The best plajj-ground the poor man could hare , in his opinion , w ^ s lan d to raise an

      independent support on . The Hon . and Learned Member for Bath desired thai tjie poor should be dependant only on wag * s and not on land . He ( Mr . S . Crawford ) desired the reverse ; he wished tho labouring poor to derive an independent support from land , connecting the use of [ land to a certain extent with those who were employed in manufacturing labour . He denied that Small occupations of land caused the distress of the wretched poor of Ireland . Their distress was owing to their not being able to get those small occupancies in snch a manner as at onco to derive tho full benefit of

      them . They were prevonted by high rents and other means from getting the full benefit of their holdings . He would not have enclosures except on condition that all should be for tho poor , remunerating those who had rights of common } by tho sale of a portion of the enolosed land , or ( by reserving rents upon it . Thinking , then , thiit this bill would extend the monopoly which the rich a ready had against the poor , he felt it his duty to divide the House again 9 tth& bill ; and if the Hon . Gentleman throught of withdrawing his motion forftakiug the second reading that day six month ? , he should divide on the original question .

      Mr . DiVETT , looking to 4 he deficiency of employment , and tho importance of extending it , for tho sake of the security of the country , wouht support the bill . I Mr . Aglionbv also declared his support of the bill , on similar grounds . j Ou a division , the 6 eecnd reading of the bill was cai ried by 64 to 4 . j Some other roatine business passed , and the House adjourned at ten minutes past eight .
