IMPERIAL PAItLIAIR ENT. ROUSE OF LORDS -MOgPAY, JUNE 1. The Loan Cessna:4cm took his seat oe the woolsack at five o'clock. Lord BROUGHAM presented two petitions numerously lord by workieg miners in the mining districts of Cornwell, raring that tbs law might be so amended as to pia°e them is the po•itioo of common servants in cues of bankruptcy. by which they would kayo a preference claim upon the eitrte. RAILWAY ACCIDENTS. Lord BROUGHAM wished to auk whether it was the in- MEW° of the govirameat to introduce any 11161164110 for the pawpaw of fixing a mammas to the @peed of railways. Earl I;KANt ILLK was Dot aware that her Majesty's governmeat had amtention of iatroducins a bill of the ehara , ter sugges t He was also of opinion that where they to introduce such a measure it world have very little chance of passing the homes of path iment. They mast all deplore the accident to which the noble and learned lord had alluded, but he had very grave doubts whether the govern meat ought to interfere with the details of railway manage- ' amt. As to Ms limitation of speed to 2i miles an hour, the real danger did not appear to arise s o much from the rate of a re g ular pace, bat to the acceleration of speed to snake up for lost time. GREECE. is reply to the llama; of ?YoBll4lllBlr. Karl RUSSELL was understood to state that during the SWIG he had received certain despatches from Mr. Scarlett is reference to which the noble marquis bad made some in• qairy before the recess, but he thought it better to wait for further information before laying those despatches upon the table of the house. THE DISPUTE WITH BRAZIL The Earl of DERBY said that since the house last met the esuntry bad been informed of the withdrawal of the Bra zilian minister in conseq LIOOOO of the refusal of her Majesty's government to offer any explanation or apology for the some. with violent coulee taken in the seizure of Brazilian vessels. Be had given no settee of the question be desired to put, and bedid not think it would be convenient that it should lead to *discussion in reference to what had taken place. He would °sly ask, therefore, whether the noble earl intended to lay before the house any correspondence that bad taken place or transactions that had occurred with reference to the questions between this country sad Brazil since the publica tion of the last pipers. Earl RUSSELL bald in his hand correspondence which bad taken place with the Brazilian minister, and which, by command of ber Majesty, he would lay upon the table. The Brazilian mient complained not so much of the orders the yea es of the mode in which they were Gamed out in Brazilian wales. Certain demands had been wade founded upon the correspondence, and with regard be the question. of difference which had been by agreement referred to arbitration, the arbitration was still proceeding. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The following bills were read a third time and passed : London, Chatham, and Dover Railway (No. 1) Bill ; Lowestoft Water, G as, and Market Bill ; Reston and Warburton Bridge Bill ; and Blaekfriambridge Bill. THE BURIAL SERVICE Lord EBURY rose to move an address to bar Majesty praying for the appointment of a commission to consider what steps should be taken to obviate the evils complained of as arising from the present compulsory sod iediscrimmate ewe of the burial service of the church of England. In favour of some alteration, a petition, signed by no less than 4,000 clergymen of the established church, and including some of the most distinguished of our clergy, had been presented to the arch bishops and bishops, and ha would, with their lordships' permission, date the circumstances which had earned that memorial to be promoted. Towards the end of the year 1848 an evil liver in the town of Cambridge, • man who was habitually intoxicated, was one night turned out of a tavern, and died is • ditch of suffocation. The case made consider. able noise in the town. and when it was proposed to the Rev. Mr. Dodd, the clergy man of the parish, to reed the burial service over the deceased, he refused, comodeling that great scandal would arias from the misapplica tion of the words :—" Forasmuch as it bath pleased A lmigh ty God of His great mercy, to take unto Mosel( the soul ourdear brother here departed," and further, " We give Thee hearty thanks that it bath pleased Thee, 0 God, to deliver this our brother, out of the miseries of this sinful world." EA-yoga admitted that the clergyman had behaved throughout with the greatest propriety, but having refused to read the burial service he was cited before the Court of Arches, and after • lapse of fourteen months was sentenced to three months' empension and to pay all the caste of the snit. The case attracted considerable attention in the town and University of Cambridge, and seventeen clergymen met and drew up a memorial, of which the following was the payer :—" We beg to express our couvictiou that the almost indiscriminate use of the order for the burial of the deed, SA practically enforced by the existing state of the law, imposes • heavy burden upon the ootiscienoris of clergy men, and is the occasion of a grievous scandal to many Christian people. We therefore most humbly pray that your lordships will be pleased to give the subject now brought under your consideration such attention as the magnitude of these evils appears to maize, with a view to the devising of some effectual remedy." This memorial was circulated for a year, and at length presented to the right reverend bench with 3,816 sip& kris, of which seven were of clergymen who had since be come colonial bishops, one of them the primate of Scot land, with diens, archdeacons, professors, and other, of the most distinguished clergymen of the church. This brought him to • part of the subject which he confessed he could sot approach without pain—he meant the response which was given to that memorial by the right reverend bench en the ith of February, 1852 —•• The Archbishop of Can terbury writes to the secretary of the committee to say that he bad submitted the memorial to a large assembly of bishops, and adds, the bishops generally sympathnie with the memorieliste in the difficulties to which they sometimes And themselves exposed with reference to the terms of the burial service ; but I am sorry to report further, that the obstacles in the way of remedy* these difficulties sip perr to them, as at present advised, to be insuperable." The only ray of hope that he sew in this answer was to be found in the words •' as at present advised," as he trusted that their lordship' would be able to suggest some means by which the difficulty might be removed. The Earl of DESART protested against the dircuesion of this subject by their lordships house, as, however smut it night be, it was merely an assembly of laymen, and this was • question for ecclesiastical &deices. He moved, then, that the discussion of the motion be deferred for six months. The Archbishop of CANTERBURY, in approaching this question, begged to assure their lordships that he had had some difficulty in ascertaining the precise nature of his noble friend's motion, and it was ooly since he entered that house that • paper ha d' been pieced in his band explaining it. There was this difficulty about the motion, that it seemed to open the wide and grave question of the revision of the liturgy, • question for which he thought their lordship; were hardly prepared. He was glad to hear his noble friend say that there was no objection to the burial servicein itself, and, indeed, h e could hardly imagine any form of burial service from which the expression of • hops if forgiveness for the deceased sinner could be excluded. There was no doubt considerable difficulty in some cases, sod he had been consulted by several clergymen on the sub ject. His answer had been, that provided the deceased persoo bad died in the commission of sin, or in the avowal of unbelief, or had recently declared that be would not abandon his sin, nothing would induce him (the Archbi shop of Canterbury) to pronounce those words, but rather than do so he would stand all the penal ties of the law. He admitted that this was a state of things which required alteration, bat at the same time he should be very sorry to cousent to the present motion without lavisi had a little more time to consider its pre cise Datum. He would therefore request his noble friend sot to press hie motion to a division, bat leave it to be coo sidered iu that assembly to which the noble lord opposite hat said it exclusively belonged. Earl (IRANVILLE thought the noble lord had dose wisely in bringing tbe question forward, as it was better that it should be discussed than stiffed, and there was no place where it would be discussed with more propriety than in that boas*. Ow the whole he would advise his noble friend to withdraw his motion. The Archbishop of YORK believed that the expe rience of most ministers was that though there were some difficult cases there were very few in deed in which they would like to omit the words of hope altogether, and thus to convey the impression that there was no h o p e . Th e wor d s o f hope might be omitted in all cases, but he contested that the burial service would he discharged of eta meaning if that were so. Let them take the third view, that ministers should be invested with the power of omitting them words in certain instance& In that case they would create some 13,000 or 14.000 judges, and judges of eternal salvation of men committed to the earth. (Loud cries of " Hear, hear.") Aud, moreover, the words were not addressed to the dead body, but to the suffering and sorrowing relatives who were enduring the affliction of the Almighty, sod surely there was not a man is that house who would desire at inch • time to add weight to their sorrows It was said that the American church had discovered a solution for these difli cultist He would make it his duty to examine into the subject. Then, is to the case of Mr. Dodd, who felt • difficulty in proeouocing the wads of the burial service, and said there ought to be words of general hope even la cases when no hops existed in the heart at all. But would that be • remedy ? it would be better, he thought, to omit the 11011Vid , than to leave out words dhotis altogether. The late Archbishop of Canterbury was of opinion that the difficulties in the way of altering theserviee were insuperable ; but he (the Archbishop of York) thought thatthe difficulties were not so strong as they might appear. He was sot dispomil to recommend that this question should be altogettieratilled, and iedeed Le would not with to retain his seat in that howls if be should he compelled to sit still and say No upon all questions relating to the church. He very much doubted whether • royal commission would be the beat mode of dealing with Wei question. He instantly admitted that so long as there was a state church that house had a perfect right to take cognizance of these questions. That was the price, if any at all, that they paid for state Doan. tense,;. and support. But he contended that there wee no question hers which required elucidation by evidence. as the whole matter lay is a vary small comps. He trusted that the noble lord would withdrew his motion, and that before long something would be recommended from the right reversed bench —sot at all dictating to the house— which would lead to a happy solution of the difficulty. (Hew, hear) The Bishop of LONDON blued to add his mood to THE the noble lord Dot to peer his motion to a divimioo. The noble lord roust see, from what had been stated by the most rev. prelates, that this question was not likely to drop, and he would he sorry if they (the right rev. bench) were placed in oppositiou to all church reforms, for they knew that the strength of the church of England correlated not in main taining every uutenable principle, but in making her able to repel every attack. The queatiois before the house could not at that moment receive a satisfactory solutioo, for it was one of very great difficulty. The noble lord had said that the whole matter had been settled by the American Prayer book. He (the Bishop of London) had examined that book in the rooming, and his impression was that it would be very difficult to use that Prayer-book for till. service. He did not think that the omission of words here and there would alter she hopeful character of a service, and the Americas service, like all others, was constructed on a hope• ful and charitable hypothesis, arid therefore could not be ap plied to the case of Mr. Dodd. As to the cseeof Mr. 'WM it would be well that the clergy should know that there was a view of this case which was not sufficiently attended to viz., that no one could proceed against a clergyman for DIA using the burial service except his bishop, and he would ask whether it was conceivable that any bishop would proceed against a clergyman under the circumstances? It had been ruled by the Court of Queen's Bench that all proceedings under the Church Discipline Act were in the discretion of the bishops, sod tt warn only on Satur day last that one of his clergy told him of • difficulty which he had had in regard to this service. He (the right rev. bishop) said that no doubt he had done his best, and that if he had laid the matter before him (the Bishop of Loudon) he should have advised him to act in the same or a similar manner. He thought they were indebted to the noble lord for bringing this motion forward, for he believed the subject required discussion either there or elsewhere, and that such discussion would eventually lead to a satisfactory result. (Hear, hear.) The; Duke of MARLBOROUGH suggested to the noble lord who had brought forward the motion whether it would not be better, instead of having a royal commission, to leave these questions to convocation, which was a body already constituted, and also sanctioned by antiquity and prescription, and which had power and ability to deal with these questions. When thin subject was again brought before the house they might ask the responsible advisers of the crown to recommend that convocation should be de• puted to consider it ; and their lordships would concede that that would he a right and proper way of dealing with it. He trusted that the noble - lord wou ld not press his motion to a division. (Hear, hear.) The Bishop of ST. DAVID'S joined in requesting that the public discussion of this subject should be post poned. He wished to observe that, in his opinion, there WY no necessity fora royal commission to consider what steps ought to be taken to improve or alter the burial service. He admitted that there were some evils, and if there were many like those referred to by the noble lord, the sooner they were removed the better for the church. The noble lord had not contemplated throwing more respon sibility on the clergy, and the only thing the commission would have to do would be to say what changes should be made in the language of the burial service. With that single object, therefore, in view they would give to a limited mumbler of bishops the discretion of reforming that service. He did not think that any such commission would be found to agree in any alteration whatever. But if they should be found to agree, this alteration would not be satisfactory to the church, because the body so invested would not have sufficient authority for the purpose. He thought there was another body better adapted for proposing alterations than any commission could be, vtr. convocation, and he hoped that body would take the subject into their serious conside ration, and come to a decision which would be satisfactory to the people generally. (Hear, hear.) Earl STANHOPE said he objected to the course taken by the noble earl below him (Earl Desert) in attempt ing to prevent a discussion in that house on church questions. He thought their lordahips must stand up in defence of their privileges ; and as that house comprised within it the heads of the church, it was especially a dapted for the discussion of all these questions. As to the burial service, he would agree that cues might arias in which some of the words would not be applicable, and ought not to be applied. But what he desired to call attention to was that the most reverend prelate had said that if he were a clergyman, and fiat that he could not read the service, no power on earth should compel him to do so. It therefore appeared that the liturgy oft he church of England ordered one thing, and they had heard from the lips of the most reverend prelate another. (Hear, hear.) Now if the lamp bade clergymen to read the service, and the bishops pre scribed another course of proceeding, that was a state of things which could not be approved of, and it ought to be altered as soon as possible. (Hear, hear.) He entertained considerable doubt whether the appeal recommended by the noble duke to the convocation would be altogether satisfactory. In the first place, the Irish branch of the united church was not represented in cativo cation at all. In the next place, practically the convoca tion of York seemed to take no part in questions of this kind, so that the entire decision would rest with the con. vacation of Canterbury. It seemed to him that the best coolie would be, on deliberation and in concert with the heads of the church, to whines the crown, entreating her Majesty to refer the matter to the bishops. Lord CHELMSFORD said that the right rev. prelate (the Bishop of London) wee not correct in supposing that proceedings against clergymen for not performing the burial service could only take place at the instance of the bishop. If that were the case, it would obviate many of the diffi culties by which the case was surrounded. The Church Discipline Act, on which the right rev. prelate relied, was pseud in 1840, whereas the proceedi ngs alluded to did not take place until the year 184 d and the o ffi ce of the judge, as it was called, was promoted , not by the bishop, but by an individual, and the son of the deceased party refused to take any pert in the proceedings. The Bishop of LONDON mid that he had taken some pains to ascertain the facts of the case referred to, and was informed that the Bishop of Ely was the promoter of the case, but had allowed his office to be promoted at the solicitation of another. Earl RIISSELL hoped that the noble lord would comply with what appeared to be the general wish of the house and withdraw the motion. He thought, however, that there should be some uocierstanding as to the manner in which the question should be left. The most rev, prelate would leave the matter solely to the discretion of the clergy. (Hear, hear.) It would often produce a painful impression In a locality if • clergyman were at liberty to exclude, as it were, a person, whatever his character might have been ; and yet such was in effect the remedy suggested. Eves it the discratiou were left in the hands of the bishop it would often prove a source of great embarrassment. He was informed that it was • doctrine of the Roman catholic church that, whatever might have been the sins of a person, there was no one of whom it could be 'Lid that he died in such a state that there could be no hope for him, became there might have been in his last moments that faith and that repentance which would entitle him to entertain some hope of salvation. That at all evicts was a charitable doctrine, and he should be sorry to see the services of the church altered in such a way as would not be consistent with that charity which the church ought to exhibit. He thought the best way in which the case could be remedied was to refer the subject to the right rev. prelates, to consider what alteration should be made ; end it might be found that it would not after all require to he discussed in convocation. It required may • pr ud ent and well considered form of words, and no body of men could be so well qualified to prepare such a form of words as the right rev. prelates. Their recommendation could not of course he adopted with out an alteration of the law ; such alteration could not take place without the concurrence of parliament, and be be lieved that parliament would approach the consideration of the matter with the gravity and fairness which the im portance of the subject demanded. (Hear.) The Bishop of LLANDAFF said he hoped that the motion would be withdrawn, bat he coasesed that if it were premed to • division he should support it, as it was not open to the objections which he felt bound to pries against the noble lord's more comprehensive and vague motion of three years ago. He would not consent to any alteration of the baptismal service, but the burial service stood in a different position, as it did not involve any doctrine. The existing difficulty might be met by the introduction of an explanatory sp. pendia staling that is the use of such end such terms they did not mean to apply them to the case of the individual departed in the same way as it was explained in reference to holy commuoioo, that the terms employed did not mean the corporeal presence of our Lord. He thought this would in great part, if not entirely, meet the difficulty. Earl GREY said be should not wish to see the motion of his noble friend either withdrawn or negatived, end consi dered the best mode of dealiog with it would be to adjourn the debate for four weeks, so am to give ample time for considering the matter. He considered the mode suggested by his noble friend was the best of dealing with what was admitted to be • great grievance— namely, that of referring it to • royal commission. He did not believe that a discus sion of it in convocation would lead to • satisfactory settle ment of it it the minds of the pen le at large. The view of his noble friend who suggested that the crown should refer the subject to the bench of bishops was one of most gees tioosble propriety. for it would give to the bench of bishops • corporate action apart from convocation. (Hear.) Lord LY'PTELTON said he should vote with his noble friend if he pressed his motion to • division. But be did not object to its withdrawal, or to the adjournment of the debate, as it would give time for further consideration. He hoped that, in the meantime, the bench of bishops would take up the subject and deal with it in a practical way. He thought convocation was a very proper body for inquiring into the matter. It was because this was • limited question, sod did not involve•revision of the Prayer-book, that he should vote for the motion, - The Bishop was of opinion that some body ought to be constituted having authority to deal with this and similar queotions. The LORD CHANCELLOR mid that some observations that had fallen from the most rev. prelate and the right r••• 'Relate who presided over the see of London bad given to this question a momentous importance, and therefore the right rev beach incurred something like • moral obligation to submit some measure on this subject that was likely to be satisfactory to the general body of the clergy whom they represented. ° Lord EBURY th anked his most rev. and right rev. friends on the part of the laity of the conoky for the frank and candid owner in which they had met this question. In reference to so observation that be bad pressed the motion precipitately forward he stated that in ord e r th a t the sub might be thoroughly understood he had placed his notice oo the paper on the first night of the 811111g40, and had consulted his most rev, friends as to the day on which it would be most mommiiiat to subaut it to timbers. Aa to XPRESS, TUESDAY EVENING, JUNE 2, 1863. the form in which he bad introduced it, not only did ammo. arose point out that a royal oommissioa was the best form of preliminary inquiry in these came but from the time of the Reformation in every question which affected the Book of Common Prayer legislative action had bean preceded by the appointment of a royal oommisaion. After what had taken place be was willing to withdraw his motion, upon the solemn assurance that as early so possible, and if possible this session, a measure on the subject would emanate from the right reverend bench. The Archbishop of CANTERBURY assured their lord ships that he and his right rev. brethren were determined to take the subject into their serious coosidemtioo, and to ascertain ma soon no they could the views of the clergy upon it. (Rear.) The present debate, however, must have con vinced their lordships that the (location was one of extreme difficulty, and he did not think it would be possible to deal with it before the end of the present session. The motion was then withdrawn. SAVINGS BANKS MONEYS BILL. This bill teased through committee. STOCK CERTIFICATE TO BEARER BILL. This bill was reed a third time and passed.

MILNES gave notice that on the 9th instant, on the motion of the hon. member for Maidstone with regard to the Act of Uniformity, he would move an amendment to leave out all the words which related to the Thirty•nine Articles. THE EXHIBITION BUILDING. Mr. GREGORY gave notice that to-morrow he would auk the Chem*Use of the Exchequer to what purpose the late Exhibition building was to be applied ; whether a de tailed estimate for repairing, altering, and eventually nom• plating the building, would be laid before the house ; whe ther the Chancellor of the Exchequer would make any state ment to the house previous to asking for • vote ; whether the two glean domes were to be replaced by two permanent structures in the suns design ; and when the vote would be taken for the embellishment of London and he vicinities. (" Hear, hear," and laughter.) establishments near London, where thousaods of children of both eases were educated, lied they found the cane used in this limited manner in those schools. The committee did not shrink from the responsibility which attached to what they had done. They had acted to the beet of their judgment, and be believed they bad acted right, and they were perfectly willing to submit to any further inquiry which parliament might think necemary. (Hear, bear.) Mr. KINNAIRD objected to the use of the CllllO in a girls' school, mid thought that a milder form of punishment would be more efficacious. Mr. BRIBOOE said the house sod the country were greatly indebted to his hon. friend for bringing forward the subject. He wished to know whether the birch would be discontinued in the school. _ . Sir J. PAKINGTON—OIt, yes. Mr. BRISCOE disapproved of such • mode of punish. meet, and was glad to hear that it would not be practised. He hoped that under the new arr►ngements such a thing could not recur again as a girl being aeon without medical advice up to London to be mesmerised. He should like to have heard that there ezieted • committee of ladies to superintend the management of these poor orphan girls. Mr. COREY said that a medical officer visited the asylum every day of the week, and there was • most stringent rule that no case could be treated without his positive onion. The house then went into committee of supply. CIVIL SERVICE ESTIMATES. The house went into committee on the civil service esti mates. On the item of 18,87 W. for the furniture of publio Mr. A. SMITH moved the reduction of the vote by 7,1011. 10• Id., the sum appropriated for the supply of fit • sod furniture for the Museum at South Kensington. on ensued, and the committee having divided, the vote was agreed to by 63 to 23. Mr. SCLATER.BOOTH moved to reduce by 7,000/. the vote of 77,n521. for royal parks and pleasure grounds. Lord It. CECIL thought they bad lost sight altogether of the question of economy. There was an increase of more than 200.0001. on the expenditure of last year for luxuries, and that at a time when Ireland was starving and Lancashire was supported by public alma. He did not think hon. gen tlemen would Till° in the opinion of their constituent& if they followed out the practice of treating the committee of supply as if it were an absolute farce. He hoped hon. members would pay some attention to this, and not suffer the committee of supply to degenerate into a mere revising committee of the Beard of Works. _ Lord PALMERSTON said the real fact was that the government exercised so vigilant a control over the various items of expenditure, and the estimates were so carefully and economically framed, that when objections were raised such satisfactory answers were given —(oh," and laughter) —that the house thought no material reduction could be made—(hear, hear)—and , then bon. gentlemen who objected : became angry at not carrying their point, which was shown to be against reason and good sense. (Hear, hear.) Hon. gentlemen said this was an enormous expenditure upon the perks. Well, it was 90,000 L altogether, and • great number of parka were kept for that sum, and great was the enjoyment which millions in this metropolis derived from that expenditure. (Hear, hear.) It would be paltry economy to deprive the bumbler clause of the metropolis of that legitimate enjoyment which this expenditure gave them, and not only the in habitants of this metropolis, but those who visited it from all parts of the country. But they had been told to look at what was done in other countries, and especially in France. Did hon. gentlemen know what was the expense of that single park near Paris called the Bois de Boulogne ? He was not talking of the expense of creating. It was • wonderful creation, and worthy of the genius of its author as a transformation of the face of nature ; but he was told by a high authority that its maintenance cost 1401. a week, or about 7,0001. a year, very nearly the whole expense of all our parks. (Hear, hear.) But he merely wished to point out to the house that although the sum which three parks cost was a large sum, the enjoyment for the people, created by this expenditure, was amply equivalent, and he therefore trusted the committee would not be led away to curtail that amount. (Hear, hear.) The committee then divided : For the amendment Against it ll5-48 The vote was then speed to.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER did not protest against the nocoinatiln, although the government still entertained their original objection to the appointment of the committee. FEDERAL RECRUITING IN IRELAND. Mr. HOPWOOD asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether her Majesty's government were aware that the Pederala were recruiting in Ireland, and if they were pre paring to take active steps to prevent it? _ . Sir R. PEEL saki he had no direct information that re cruiting had taken plate in Ireland. The government were aware that agents had been there, but of course they did not openly recruit. Great numbers of young men had certainly gone from Ireland to America, and on inquiry they found that their passage had been Pad, and they had reason to suppose that there were Irish in America who had been in- duced by the Federal agenta to enlist in the Federal cause. They were following up the matter, arid taking active steps to discover the delinquents if they could, but the reuniting was not done openly. VENTILATION OF THE HOUSE. Mr. D. GRIFFITH asked the First Commissioner of Works whether, in this warm weather, it would not be better to veutilate the house by the ordinary expedient of opening the windows, rather than motion* the present mode of shutting the windows carefully, and pumping up the air from the cellars below the house. Mr. COWPER said his opinion was that if the windows were opened, u the hoe. member proposed, the air that would be admitted would neither be so cool nor No pure as that they were enjoying at present. (Laughter.) The hon. gentleman was mistaken in supposing that the air they were breathing was pumped out of the cellars. If the hon. gentleman would take the trouble to go below (laughter)—be would see that the air was admitted in the most natural and easy way into a chamber below the house. There it was purified ; it was washed in • stream of pure water, arid many of the impurities floating in it were re moved. Afterwards it pared through a very clean cham ber where the remaining floating impurities were inter cepted. The air then came through the floor, travelling at the nits of one foot • minute, and then it wised out. This air, in cold weather, was warmed, and in summer it was iced. (Laughter.) The object Mr. Goldsworthy Gurney had in view was that the air should at all seasons be of en equal temperature— that of 64 degrees of the thermometer. Sometime' it varied one degree above or below, but very little more. Om Friday evening, when the hoe. member wished to have the windows open, the thermometer outside the house was 78 degrees, while inside it was only 63, so that if the hon. gentleman's suggestion had been adopted, the windows would have poured into the house air that was 13 degrees higher than the air they were breathing. He (Mr. Cowper) had himself no prejudice against opening windows, and the rule adopted was that when the air outside was 64 degrees the windows were opened, and when it was more than that they were closed. Lord R. CECIL inquired what was the cost of the ventilatioe? Mr. COWPER could not tell off hand, as it was included in the warming and lighting of the bonne. Mr. D.

LOBB OF LIFE BY BATHING IN VICTORIA-PARK. —A lamentable accident betel • youth yesterday morning, while bathing in the eastern ornamental lake in Victona. park. He was seen struggling in the water, but the alarm appears not to have been given until the poor fellow had sunk for the third time.

The attendance this afternoon was hardly tip to the avenge on the eve of a peat meeting like Ascot, and specu lation was anything but brisk. Those who did not manage to pull off a " good thing " on any of the recent great events seemed to have scarcely recovered from the collapse into which they were left by their disappointments, and conse quently the venison of the layers of odds became a difficult one, as only longish prices would tempt a large moiety of intending backers. A considerable portion of the afternoon was devoted to settling on the Grand Prize of Paris after which attention was turned to the Ascot Meeting. For the Stakes Oldminster, after having been warmly sup ported et 6 to 1, advanced to 5 to 1, at which price the money wee " lumped on," and at the close not more than 4 to 1 could have been obtained about him. Rubicon would have been backed at 8 to 1, but bearing in mind the amount of good money already on the hone, layers did not feel inclined to take liberties with him. Brother to Rapid Rhone and Bandage each found friends at 8 to 1, but Captain Crow, lunar several investments had been made upon him at prices varying from 6 to 8 to 1, left off finally at 10 to 1 offered without a response, while at the same time there were offers to take 7to 1 with a start. 10 to I was booked about Canary, and the like odds freely offered about Knuts ford. For the Ascot Cup Tim Whittier was in force, sto 4 being taken freely. 8 to I was accepted about Buck stone, but The Marquis was very " Baby," offers of 10 to 1 failing to bring any one to the rescue. The success of the Ranger in the Grand Prize of Paris yesterday installed him first favourite for the St. Leger, for which he was supported at 6 to 1, vice Lord Clifden, promoted (the wrong way) to 8 to 1 (taken), Queen Bertha also meeting with support at the latter price. 1,000 to 60 was booked three times about &ocher°. meter, but later 18 to 1 wu laid two or three times. For the Derby Blair Athol was again inquired after, but except 1,000 to 55 taken once about him nothing else came under our notice, hackers standing out for 20 to 1, at which I price Mr. l'Anson's crack would have found many friends. Mr. Merry's Scottish Chief was in remarkably good odour, 20 to 1 being taken freely about him. Claremont, in John Scott's stable, of whom there are very glowing accounts, was supported at 40 to 1, taken.

STENCIL • curious question him arisen under • deed of arrangement executed by Mr. T. H. Spencer of the Mitre lon, Maidstone. The trader had fitted up new premises for the accommoda tion of persons attending the assizes at Maidstone, and others ; he had ordered a quantity of furniture of Messrs. Stanger and Edmett, of Maid.tone, about 1501. worth of which was supplied previous to the commencement of the last assizes. Within a few days of that time Mr. Spencer, finding himself inconveniently pressed by some of his credi tors (his debts being then upward. of 18,0001.), sent for Mr. Stanger, and offered to convert the contract for sale of the furniture into one for hiring, at 15 per cent per annum. Mr. Stanger acquiesced in this proposal at the time, and made an entry in his book to that effect, which was by the debt sou% to Su re b" v u s e :lt i e y iurn Mr iture Sta nger, wiiti av i!l n r g Spencer at first cousented, but afterward', on the remon strance of some of his creditors, 'misted the removal, and the furniture remained on the premises. On the next day the debtor bad executed the deed of assignment, and the trustees claimed to retain the furniture as having been put. chased by and being in the possession of the debtor. The parties had agreed to leave the matter to th e d ec i sion o f th e court. M it; facts had been turned into a special cue. On behalf of the trustees it was contended that the property bad been absolutely purchased by the debtor prior to the date of the deed ; that the arrangement by which it was alleged that it was returned was a fraudulent pre ference, and could not be supported as against the trosteeri ; and that the furniture and effects were, with the consen t and permiasion of the true owner, in the order and disposi tion of the debtor at the date of the deed. Hie Honour said Nut is deciding this owe he roust put himself in the position of • jury, and he could only come to the conclusion that the transfer of those goods by Spencer to Stanger and Edmett was not only voluntary, but was also made in contemplation of bankruptcy. The deed executed by Spencer under the 197th section was tantamount to an adjudication of bankruptcy obtained against himself ; and looking at what had taken place between the debtor and Yeses. Stanger and Edmett immediately preceding the execution of the deed, when he told them that he was unable to meet his engagements, and that he wished to protect them, the court could come to no other conclusion than that the trlinelletioo was, SS the bankrupt said, for the protection of Messrs. Stanger and Ealmett, by giving them a preference, and putting them i n a b e tt er poM. Mon than the other creditors, by securing to them at all events their goods, leaving it uncertain whether the other creditor, got 20s. in the pound or not. The court felt bound, under the circumstances, to adjudge in favour of the trustees , however hard it might be upoil trade men who had suppinpa goods so recently before the execution o f the dad of arrangement.

Mr. Arnold observed that it was unnecessary now to fir the order of the defence, u be must adjourn the further hearing of the case. The case was therefore further adjourned till this day, the defendants' bail being extended. In the course of the examination Mr. Arnold remarked that the result of the crouvexamination by Mr. Retain son had been to thoroughly establish the fact that there had been an organised and systematic resistance to the polices THAMES. William Mahoney, angiarlabourer, was brought before Mr. Woolrycb, charged with committing a violent rumalt on Alice Bowden, a respectable young woman, dwelling at No. 6, Chapel-street, St. George-in-the-Fast. The complainant, with an air of great simplicity, said she bad been to a place of amusement with her young man on Saturday night, and after leaving him she wee making the best of her way home when she was met by the pH. Doom in Anthony-street, and he made many improper overtures to her, and offered her a shilling to accompany him to a house. She informed him that he was quite mistaken, and that she was not the person he snppoeed, on which he struck her to the head. 'Vilma she recovered herself she attempted to run away from him, and he struck her again on the face and gave her two black eyes. She went on to state that the prisoner seized her by the cloak, and tore it and also her dress. She was very nearly naked on the ground, and the body of her dress was comply torn off. . . . _ M.

The prisoner answered, " All right, governor." He said, "It's not all right ; you must come along with 1110." The prisoner resisted him, and they had • grmt tussle. Mr. Woolrych investigated the case for a considerable time, and it appearing that the young woman woe a dress and mantle maker, and very well behaved, and that th e prisoner's defence was entirely devoid of truth, the magi'. trate said the prisoner had committed a cowardly and brutal assault. He sentenced him to three months' imprisonment and hard labour, and to pay 20e. for the damage to the complein•nt's dram MARKETS. LONDON WEEKLY DOCK Loportd. guaLs—w. 1.
