A discussion of a singular cbaracter took place in the British House of Commons, the other day. When the House was in what is called a Committee of Supply, the estimates for civil contingencies came to be presented, discussed, and voted. In day s not far romote, the Bell-appointed guardian of the pnblic purse was the late Joseph Hume, commonly called " the tottle of the whole,” from the manner in which he pronounced the words. Hume, who was about the worst speaker in Parlia ment, was a sert of political - Skye-terrier at smelling out a job, and, in his day, did a great deal of service. Undoubtedly, the certainty of his objecting tended to check the tendency to extravagance which suscessivo ministers, whatever the politics, seem to inherit as an heir-loom of office. In Praed’s amusing verses to “On seeing the speaker asleep in his chair on one of the Debates of the first Reformed Parliament,” we find this allusion: « Rome will no doubt be taking the tense Of the House on a question of sixteen penoe. Latterly, when his liberal lriends came into office—and never offered a place to him, nor even made him a Privy Councillor—Home relaxed his watchfulness and became such a mere partisan, that he publicly declared he would vote black was white, to prevent the Tories returning to offleo. This was certainly more candid than honest. Mr. Hume’s successor, as objector-general to Government expenditure, is Bernal Os borne, member for the borough of Liskeaid in Cornwall—a snug little place with about 6,000 inhabitants, oi whom less than 400 are electors. Mr. Osborne, who is exactly half a century old, is eldest son of fhe late Ralph Bernal, who was Chairman of Committees oi the whole House for many years—an office of great importance, the occupant whereof re ceives $lO,OOO a year. Young Bernal mar- ried an Irish heiress, only child o! the late Sir Thomas Osborne, with gteat estates in the counties of Waterford and Tipperary, and this accession of property gave him position which, to say the truth, bis talents are sufficient to maintain. He assumed hiswiie’s name on his marriage—and thus became Mr. Bernal Os- On the fill of the Derby-Disraeli adminia- tration, in Dtcember, 1852, when eld Lord Aberdeen was forming that Coalition Minis- try which so cleverly contrived to make Eng land become the cats paw of Napoleon, in the War with Russia, Mr. Bernal Osborne, who had then been eleven years in Parliament—a saucy, sharp debater —was made Secretary to the Admiralty, which office he retained, until the formation of the second Derby-Disraeh Ministry, in March, 1858. In the following year, when Lord Palmerston had to farm a new Administration, he did not include Ber- nal Osoorne in his arrangements. Ever since, fulfilling Byron’s lines in Don Juan, And hers and there, some stem high patriot stood Who could not get the place for which he sued, Mr. Osborne has. devoted himself to looking after the money-votes in the Bouse of Com mons, and making his old colleagues as un- comfortable as he can. Among the items to be voted for Civil Con tingencies, the other day, was the sum of £512 14s. for fees paid ou Lord Brougham’s patent of remainder. In other words, when Henry Brougham was created Baron Brougham and Yaux, on the 23d of November, 1880, the patent which conferred this peerage npon him limited its succession, as is usual, to *« tW heirs male of his body lawfnlly begotten.” But it happened that Brougham’s only children were two daughters, one of whom died in youth, and the other, after rising to womanhood, and exhibiting a great deal of her father’s mental energy and accompllsh menta, died of consumption. Last year, to mark her sense of his great services, Queen Victoria, having ascertained that such an act would be very acceptable to Lord Brougham, directed that he should receive a second patent of nobility, by which, on his death, the title, instead of becoming extinct for want of a- son to inherit it, should descend to his only surviving brother (William Brougham', late Master in Chancery), and hit eldest son. This “ patent of remainder,” as it is called, was a voluntary act of grace and special favor on the part ot the Queen, and expressed, in very laudatory terms, her sense of obligation and regard for the recipient’s public services. It was a magnanimous, AS Well as a gracious act, for, early in ISSs, before her Majesty had beCi a twelvemonth on the throne, Lord Brougham published a pamphlet, under the nom de plum of “ Isaac Tomkins,” in which he said, with considerably more truth than politeness, that « she became Queen at the immature age of eighteen l —an age at which a careful mother would not entrust her daugh ter with any duty more important than that of choosing the color of the ribbons she intended putting into her bonnet.” At the time, these words caused a terrible agitation in Bucking ham Palace and the courtly circles of St. James, Mayfair, and Belgravia; it was even suggested that the pseudo Isaac Tomkins should be prosecuted for sedition—but Vic toria probably felt their troth, and let them pass. At all events, she had a glorious re venge, by conferring and perpetuating honors upon her rough old cenßor. Mr. Bernal Osborne, all the time professing great loyalty to the Qneen and high respect tor Lord Brougham, vehemently protested, to Committee of the whole House, against the payment ot £512 14s. Bd., for fees, upon Brougham’s new patent of peerage, being made out of the public purse. It was ex plained that, by the Queen's desire, the lavor to Brougham was conferred without any cost to him; that he merited well of the public, by his life-long exertions for social reform and law reform; and that, in perpetuating the peerage in his family, the Queen was simply acting for the public, whose chief magistrate she is. The vote was passed, and few will complain of it* The precedents for this are not few. Sir Henry Hardinge, after long military and civil services, became Viceroy of India In 1844, and was created Viscount, receiving £5,000 a year for his own life from the East India Com pany, and a Parliamentary annuity of £3,000 for the lives of the two next successors to the peerage. Lord Fitzroy Somerset, long the Secretary ot the Duke of Wellington, was created B iron Raglan in 1852, and died, in June, 1855, in the Crimea, during the siege of Sebastopol. Lord Canning, after the sup pression of the Indian revolt, was raised from a Viscounty to an Earldom. His predeces sor, Dalhousie, was raised from an Earldom to a Marquisate. The late Lord Elphinstone, a Scotch baron, who had successively been Governor of Bombay and Madraß, was made an English peer in 1859. The widow of George Canning was created a Viscountess in 1827. Upon every one of these patents of no bility, creating or raising the rank, the fees were paid oat of the Treasury—it being con sider. d ungracious, when conferring a favor, to make the recipient pay heavily for it. It was somewhat ungracious, on the part of Mr. Osborne, to pick out Lord Brougham's case to raise a contest over. For many years Brougham was the foremost man in the House of Commons —the bold and eloquent leader of the liberal party to which Mr. Osborne pro fesses to belong. It was chiefly owing to Brongbam that negro slavery was put down in the British dominions, at a vast ceßt, on the first of August, 1834. The great law-reforms of the last forty years have all received their origin or their impetus from his pen or voice. The social evils which prevail have been ex posed by him, and, if not removed, certainly mitigated. The question is, whether these bloodless triumphs of the mind did not de serve at least as high acknowledgment as tri umphs won with the sword on the field of battle.

The gold-emblazoned skin and boxes to hold the | patent and seal cost £9. The Patent-office | charges amounted to £29 18s. 6d. To the Attorney General, £2O, for approving, set tling, and signing the Queen’s warrant for her signature, according to “ ancient usage.” There was a iurther payment, also by “ an cient usage,” of £7 7s. 6d. to the Attorney- General, and £llos. for stamp-duty on war rant. There was paid £1 to a clerk for en grossing the warrant and for parchment. With such items the cost of Lord Raglan’s patent of nobility rose to £420. We have been tbns minute, because these charges are very curious in themselves, and also, (though we hope it will not be miscon strued into “ comlorting the enemy,”) because we desire, in the event of the rebellious South seriously desiring to become a monarchy, that King Jiff, the First, or whoever the Sovereign may be, that, when titles come to be con ferred, tbe proper authorities may know how to charge for them. If there be a monarch— when King, Emperor of Kaißer makes no ait lerence, —there will be a peerage, oi course. Even Soulonque, commonly called Faustin the Firßt, Emperor of Hayti, had his nobility. There was the Duke of Lemonade, there was the Marquis of Marmalade, there was the Viscount de Millefleurs, and there wore Connts and Barons, without stint. This was natural—for a Sovereign without an Aristo cracy would be an anomaly indeed. Here we beg to give Mr. Jefferson Davis a hint, in which he may find something greatly to his advantage. By all accounts, he is rather badly off for money, inasmuch as his paper assignats, though forced into circula tion at the point of the bayonet, are really of the smallest actual value. Why does not he raise the wind by instituting titles of nobility, and selling them lot hard cash 1 In the reign ot James I, (we are told by Hume) “ each rank of nobility had its price affixed to it,” and the King, who wanted money almost as much Mr. Jefferson Davis does, created the rank ot Baronet, which he sold to two ■Andred estated men for £1,095, thereby oh-, Tmhing a round sum of £219,000, which no doubt, was very acceptable. The traffic was so very lucrative, that the King Immediately set about making a hatch of Irish baronetcies on the same terms. Would President Davis follow the example, of “ the wisest fool in Christendom,” (a»Jitnes I. was called,) every “ first-family ” gentle man in the South may be expected to have a title—provided that he can raise the purchase money, for it would never do to give credit in such cases, when a bullet or a baiter may an nul the debt.

At a late meeting in England, Mr. Bright wld: Mow, recollect what breaking tha blockade means. It means a war With the United States; and: I don’t think myself that it wonld be oheap to break the bloekade,-at the ooat of a war with the United States I think that the cob! of a war with the' United States wonld give, probably, half wages, for a very considerable time, to those per sons in' Lancashire who wonld be out of work if there was ne cotton, to say nothing at all of the manifest injustice and wrong against all interna tional law that a legal and effective blockade should be interfered with by another oontttry. It is hot exaotly the business of this meeting, bnt my opinion is that the safety of tha prodnots on whieh this oountry depends rests far more on tho sucoess of the Washington Government than upon its failure; and I believe nothing could be more monstrous than for ns, who are not very averse to war ourselves, to set np for erltios—oarping, caviling arittos—of what the Washington Govern ment is doing. I saw a letter the other day from an Englishman, resident for twenty.live years in Philadelphia, a merchant there, and a very pros perous merohant. He said, “ I prefer the institu tions of this oountry (the United States) very mnoh to yonrs in Englandbnt he says also, "If it be onoe admitted mat here we have no country and no Government, but that any portion of these United States oau break off from the central Go vernment whenever it pleases, than it is time fer me to paok up what I have, and to go somewhere where there is a oountry and a government.” Well, that is the pith of this question. Do yon suppose that if Lancashire end Yorkshire thought that they wonld break >ff from the United Kiog dom that those newspapers who are now preaobing every kind of moderation to the Government of Washington wonld advise the Government in Lon don to allow these two oounties to set up a special fovemment for themselves ?

The Royal Insurance Company (From tbe Liverpool Mail. Saturday, July 27,1801 J y|as oompleted another financial year; and— owing, mainly, to the prndenoa and energy or I'i management, and to the confidence of tbe public in the nigh oharaoter of its Directors, in the ampli tude of iti mooroes, and in the soundness ot the principles upon whioh its bnsinest is eondneted —it not only maintains itself in a condition of vigorous health, bat exhibits, year by year, annually in creasing proofs of rapid and oontinnons develop ment. It has been plaoed in its present position, not by any violent or eeoentrio finotnations of the tide of fortune; bat by the far safer and sounder process of regular and gradual progression. Its advance has been steady Bnd uninterrupted from the very first Every one of its annual reports has exhibited a marked and most gratifying improve ment upon those which bad prooeded it; and, as oonoluslve evidenoe that the Company is still moving forward, with even bnt accelerated steps, we may appeal with oonfidenoe to the Report whioh was presented, yesterday, at the Ann'na] Meeting of the Shareholders, and whioh will be fonnd in onr present paper, Twelve months ago, when reviewing the quin quennial report of tno aotnary on the life business uf the <* Royal,” and the elaborate appendix by whioh that reuert was accompanied, we ventured to prediot that thtßd two dconments, taken toge tber, would not only “ confirm and enhance the deservedly high reputation which Mr Dove had long maintained as an aotnary and a statistician,” but wonld also “ have the effsot of Still farther increas ing the already widely extended aonfidenob of the pubiie in the position and management of the com pany ” The result hoe already mors than justi fied onr expectations. The aotnary's report, was I first presented to the proprietors at their annua] meeting in August. It n«oessarily took some time ts get ii into the hands of the pnblio. It could not be expected to exeroiße any appreoiable influence upon the business of last year. But, with the set ting in of the year 1861 the frnit produced by it began to be gathered in abundance; and we now learn from the direotors, 11 that the sum assured on new polioioß in the six months to tbe 3d of Jane, in the present year, is actually .fifty per oent in excess of the snm assured in tbe corresponding six months of the year 1860, altbongh the fatter amount in itself exceeded the stun assured In any like previous period of time. 1 ' Tans we have pro gress upon p«.gtrui, thn :j-ension oi this particular department ot the business of ths company has. within the last few years, been al mqsc marvellous The new premiums received last year exceeded those cf the preoediug year by nSarly £2 000 ($lO 000), and rite total preminmlof the year 1860 exoecaed the entire life preminme of tbe firßt eight years of the company’s existenoe. Under these eiroumstanoes, the directors are folly i istifisd in anticipating the time when the com pany will bo pisord. with respiot to the amount of tea new business, at the head of all the life assnranoe insulations doing business in this oonn try. Nor has the progress of tbe Fire Branoh been at all less remarkable.

The result was, that when the great oaUmitjoe ourred, they were fonnd in possession of a reeerve fond, resulting from the accumulated profits of their business, amply sufficient to pay their propor tion of the loss three times over. What stronger proof ean tho publlo require of provident fore thought and far- seeing sagacity ? A oompany whioh has shown itself ready, at a moment’s no tloe, to encounter end withstand so terrible a storm; whioh, within a week after the disaster oc curred, had provided its London branch with funds snffioient to meet every claim, without tither,call ing upon its shareholders or trenching upon its paid-up capital; whose auditors are able to testify, year after year, that, at the express request of iu managers, they have examined eTery deed, voucher, certificate, or other security, and found everything in order, and everything perfeeU.v cor rect; and whose proprietors have self-denial enough to piece the security of the assured high above all personal considerations of their own, and to'refuse to make oven a alight addition to their dividend, although assured by a most competed and responsible authority that they Could well af ford to do it; suoh a company, wo say, must be appreciated —must be supported— must go on, as the “ Royal” hoe hitherto done, “ prospering and to prosper." RELIGIOUS. Rev- John Leyburn, D. I>. Binoe tbe commencement of the war, several Northern pulpits with Southern occupants have been made vacant, and the religions pros has been more or less affooted by the same oause. Last week tbe Rev John Leyburn, D. D., bade “ farewell” to tho readers of The Presbyterian, after sustain ing an editorial connection with that paper for more than nine years. Clionmstanoes arising out of tho present agitations of the country” are assigned as the oause of this step.'lt is well known that Dr. Loybum, on bis recent return from the.

His loiters descri bing bis travels in Europe and the East, whioh have appeared in The Presbyterian for moro than a year past, cease with their author’s resignation. The ooceludlng one of the series ends with a part ing paragraph, in whioh the writer says: “ Prolonged as has been this correspondence, the story is not nearly all told. I had mnoh more to say of tbe holy places, of the Dsad Sea. and the Jordan, of the present condition of Palestine, and of tho remarkable oonoentration of tho Great Pow ers of Europe aronod the Holy City. * * * Possibly, wken bappior days dawn npon onr dis tracted laud, you may have the opportunity, if you wish it, of reading, In come other form, what is omitted here ” Judging from the tone of his ootemporaries, they are evidently disposed to appreciate, at their foil value, tho palliating eiroumstanoes of Dr. Leyburn’s removal, whatever may bo tbe real views of tho latter respecting the pending strug gle of onr Government to suppress tho rebellion If he is tinctured with Secession sympathies, his de parture from the editorial chair of a wideiy-eiren luted newspaper need not be regrotted, and we are only sorry that some other 00010 iaatioal editors, not a thousand miles from Philadelphia, who are weekly sowing the seeds of treason under the guise of religion, have not tne manliness to follow his example How and Then. Most of onr readers remember the excitement aud final rupture produced in tho Church of the Epiphany, in this oity, a low years ago, by a ser mon of tho late Rsv Dudley A. Tyng. Tho ex citement voted Mr. Tyng a fanatical Abolitionist; tho rupture resuited in the formation of a new congregation, called tho Church of the Covenant —over which he presided until his death—and the election, In his stead, of tho Rev. William Otis Prentiss, as reotor of tho Epiphany. Prentiss was a - Santh Carolinian, a slaveholder, and so sound on tho “ institution” that all fears of iurther Abolition episodes W6re banished. By and bye, however, Mr. Prentiss, not being well reoonoiled to the free air of the Horth, returned to his native State, and the Rev J W. Craoroft was called to succeed him. Knowing the antecedents of his new oharge, it was supposed by some that he would trim his sails accordingly Bat they were mistaken in the man. Ho sooner had the storm of Secession reared its head than Mr Oraoraft raised his voice boldly against the slave power by which it waa instigated, and in de fence of the Government and tho Several cvrmvna miuoW v- - o j m Boon a jj M tho Btl * flV . a 033 Sumpter were said to have out Tynged Tyng’s on tho “dolioate point at issue. ” They elicited no anathemas; they were listened to—with slight astonishment by some, It is true —they were approved, and, more than this, the memory of Tyng was recalled with something deeper than respeot. Two weeks ago Mr. Craeraft visited Washington and vicinity. Dn his return home he referred to his visit in the pulpit, stating that he had ascer tained that among tho prisoners taken at tho bat tle of Ball Ran, on the Sunday previons, by a Connecticut regiment, was a young South Carolina officer, who proved to be the son of his predeoesaor, Mr. PrcslliS. He ftiso stated that while at Wa«h lngion he bad learned, from undoubted authority, that while Prentiss was oaanpyisg tho pulpit of the Epiphany, in this city, he was in eorreapond enoe with Southern traitors, and that he was ac lively engaged in plotting treason against the Government! Th* Pmsidsmt’b Pboclamatioh, appointing 11 the last Thursday In September next as a day of humiliation, prayer, and fasting for all the people of the nation,” in compliance with the resolution passed by'both Houses of Congress requesting him to do so, is meeting unqualified approval.
