THE PETERHOFF. Earl RUSSELL roes and said that as the question of the mere of the Peterhof! and the detention of her Mo jeity's mails had base recently the subject of diactusicas in their lordships' home, it might be convenient to their lord ships that he should state the substance of the information be had that day received from Lord Lyons. Lord Lyons Mated that in answer to his application Mr. Seward bad in humed him that with regard to the vessel and her cargo, VW government of the United States had determined not te redeem them, but to send them before a prim court; bat with regard to the mails, be wished him to inform her Majesty's Postmaster-General that, in conformity with his baler of the 31st of October, the mail would he forwarded to its destination. He also stated that in every similar came the mans course would be adopted, until some arrangement bed been arrived at between her M ajesty's government and the government of the United States on the question. Mr. award mid he did not think that the law of nations laid down any decisive or clear rule with regard to the somewhat meal practice of sending mail bags in private ships ; and thmsfore he wished to make a communication to her Nareety's government on the subject at some future day. Lord CHELMSFORD asked whether in every cue it was Ps Memnon that the mail bag should be forwarded to its de•Meation without the seal being broken ! Marl RUSSELL was undesatood to reply in the affirma tive. DRAINAGE OF LAND (IRELAND) BILL. This bill was read a third time and pared. CORRUPT PRACTICES AT ELECTIONS BILL. Red R USSELL moved the second reading of this bill. Lord REDESD ALE called attention to the circumstance Met the bill contained a provision that the House of Com mas might suspend the passing of a writ for five yen& • peonies which be thought uncoestitatiorsi. Led LYVEDEN objected to the clause which threw the asp acs of en election inquiry upon the inhabitants of a glass, as if the respectable portion of a community bad any meted over the rascally portion. The provision was an abword one. The bill omitted the disqualification, contained iatemer acts, of attorneys and agents as electors. As this kill stood this was the only instance of licensed bribery ill Illnitence. (Hear, hear.) For a fee of five or ten gams a man might be retained as agent, ad thus his vote KOCUJed. AS the law also stood et pearent, the whole management of an election coal mines was left to the two parties interested. There was no public p ~ rw ee s ac cutor—no one to prosecute except the de bated .te i the uoseated candidate, in consequence, pit as social pomtion. If there was any sincerity in the desire to put down bribery, it was easy to do it. E i hr d W himself been is eleven contested elections ; the first basest him 4,0001., the last only VW, a result which he aliminted to the vigour and determination employed by his mismiliess. Mks stew words from the Earl of Viractsv, Mil GREY said be thought this bill was one of the most aim* pima et legislation ever promoted to pediment. It um anterior that the employment of sgsnts wee a common alb et bribery in disguise. Fees were paid to agents am harpy for the expenses of the election, really io order inahlain their votes. He thought the principle of rating tie IMehibults of a place to pay for the menages of as dentin petit on was a grimly nejuat nee. His own feeling use Men bribery was sot to be pat down by say legislative memesni. If one sat of soft desired to give bribes, aad mother OA desired to take them, it was quite impossible by ging meetoients to prevent them from carryuig their Mies Ito effect. The only way to put down bribery was le oselid public opinion against it, and to make such someemeate as should diminish as much as peeinge the egnMaities for practising it. RUSSELL said that to put down bribery was no ilhebta very difficult thing. But the proceedings of eon- ROMs of the House of Commons had succeeded in putting snip to bribery in some instances ; and the penalties no ilmilateperated m • check mire the practice. With regard In Se role dierpudifying paid spate from mho', it was Issed that ao enactment was so sadly evaded as this. Ms bill was thee rand a mooed time. HARM (IRELAND) BILL. This bill was read • eserndlime. ittcLostrzs BILL, Ibis bill also was nod a second time. THE FORTS AT MPITHEAD. the Earl ef HARDW MKS said that in 1861 a considers- Me men was voted for the purpose d • the heti ameines and dehisces of the United sampt ease wean that were begun was me d peat i gni metHese at Spithead ; but after a large sum bad m impended upon it, sad he believed its foundation had been I:ta difference of minim arose in the public sited eed the government to suspend operation& Be lei therefore to draw the attention of the government to TM of resuming the works at that place ; hut he that the fort should be placed on the Brambles, wive equidistant from the mouth of Southampton ..n.a., Illies and Come, a mad paition, is fact, from which Om pm would reedk the shore on all sides. (Hear hear.) Ss Duke of SWUM= said that the worts which had lame meetimed by parliament were contained in the mbeeele appended to 's bill peeled last session, after a great dal of disunite, in the House of Commons. Thom to tibia the ache earl had referred had not been almadoned, led 'lay mermaid. It was thought best, as there was a dlilmeece of melee on the subject, logo on with the ether web sad to leave these for further consideration. The eau expended on them up to the 31st of Jul), 1882, was I aft 80,0001. No doubt, something had since been laid out ea lima, but the whole sum wee not so large its the noble earl mined to thick. With regard to Ms affair at Charleston, ii was a very curious thing, but if the Americans had Iliad to try the experiment for us, they could not have dm it more exactly. The distance, between Fort Sumter ned Fort Moultrie was 2,000 yards, which was also the dia ller* between oar batteries. In both cases there wee • CLcurvet, and is both there ware certain fuel working within a certain inhume of the forts. Is Leh rem the same kinds of obstsectima by fishing ads ad ropes, which would foul the screws of steam venal& mold be practised. As regarded the vessels employed by ors Fedoras, be must admit that the experiment had net bees so astisfactor y . Fourteen months ego we were told by the Americana the& they had built the Moaner man adm ties to the British Admiralty, hot it bad proved in a miming to them, for the fi rst time it encountered P lea . sea it west to the bottom. They had built 110M11 more Mmitors. and they likewise had failed io the first experi ment which had been made of them. The attack, there fees, would have beau more interestiog to um if they had had • Meager description of vessel. We still required to know Me deseriptice of gum that were employed, the quantity of rerused, and several other important particulars Mating ftatfair. Still it was clear that the Federalsquaroe had been completely defeated, aod that the victory r e mised elesidedly in favour of the forts. The mid* earl me ewer that no money could be devoted at preset to Spitheed. At the same time the large expenditure which bad occurred wish regard to other works would render it necemery for the government. in a few days, to come before the ether hems with a scheme ; and it was very desirable thea Use meter should be decided as early as possible, so sa not to Are the summer. The Earl of DERBY had anderst3od that the aid isjery to the Federal yawls bad been inflicted after they lima metered the harbour, sad had thus exposed themselves le the concentric fire of batteries at a distance of 300 or d 11. tke of SOMERSET thought, as far as be could poke metro= the chart,that they were about 600 yards from Part Bomber. The other forts would be much further off. Marl GREY maenad that Charleston was at a meek =distance fromthe batteries than Portsmouth was ars. lt might then be parable to shell Portsmouth esteithsteeding the fire of the forts. The Duke of SOMERSET said it would be very disagree able to bombard the town while under the fire of forts at 1110 yards. Their lerdships ram at five minutes before six.

STAMPS ON DELIVERY ORDERS, Mr. BASS asked the Chaocellor of the Exchequer whether he could Asia the amount, or computed amount, of revenue which had bees derived from stamps co delivery orders. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he was sot pre, axed to give say answer to his hoc. friend which was worthy the WWI of an eatimate. He could onlye a °abjectly* as to the amount received. Oa* or two other duties which made use of the mune stamp were imposed with the ramp on the delivery orders ; and it was oaly by deducting the probable amount of those other stamp duties that any attempt at forming an'estlmate could be made. The mum which was probably realised under the head of stamps on delivery orders was 40,0001. CRIMIN AL LUNATICS IN IRISH GAOLS. Ir. NACEVOY asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether the government would this semi= ietroducea bill to extend to Inland such provisions of the Act 16 and 17 Vie., o. 97, as would enable magistrates to commit dangerous lunatics direct to asylums, instead of to the oounty gaols, as was now orceesary ? Sr R. PEEL mid that no doubt great inconvenience arose from the accumulation of criminal lunatics in Irish gaols. The government hoped that when the new lunatic asylums now in course of erection were completed some alteration with respect to the disposal of criminal lunatics would be made. SCHOOLS OF NAVAL ARCHITECTURE. Sir J. PAKINOTON asked the Secretary to the Ad miralty whether the Board bad cooeidered the necessity of some revival of a school of naval architecture; and whe ther, in the event of such as institution being established on a basis approved by the Board, they would be disposed to extend to it encouragement and Ruppert. Lord C. PAGET said that the Admiralty were quite im pressed with the absolute necessity of taking some step for the promotion of that most important branch of seisms— navel architecture. (Hear, hear.) He might state that any proposal which should be made with a view to establish an institution for that purpose would be favourabl► consi dered by the Admiralty, who would render any assistance in their power to carry it into effect. No such proposal had, however, been yet brought under their notice, but the sub ject was nodes their consideration. in possession of or to be obtained by the If etropolitan Board. In reply to the question of his hon. friend (Sir N. Varney) be had to state that the pismire leading to the gate at the northern extremity of Spring.gardsos was very narrow, and that there would be no use in opening the g►te itself without palling down a number of houses—a matter which would involve considerable axperies. MAIL BAGS ON BOARD THE PETERHOFF. Mr. W. E. FOftSTER asked the Under Secretary for Foreign Affairs whether it was true that a natiefactory des patch had bees received that afternoon from Amence re specting the mail bap on board the reterhoff Mr. LAYARD—In reply to the question of the hoe. member, 1 have great wittsfaction in stating that by a des patch we have just received from Lord Lyons we are in formed that Mr. Seward has given directions that the mail bap on board the Peterhoff should be at once sent to their destination without being opened. (Cheers.) THE CUSTOMS AND INLAND REVENUE BILL.- INCOME TAX ON CHARITIES. The CHANCELLOR at the EXCHEQUER moved the sewed reading of the Customs and laland Revenue Bill. Lord R. CECIL directed attention to the tact that the ' third section of the bill imposed a new charge upon the people in the shape of an income tax upon charities, and that such proposal had not been referred to a committee of the whole house as the custom and order of the house required. Sir H. WILLOUGHBY also expressed his disapproval of the proposal, and remarked that the Chancellor of the I Exchequer was much too prone, io surveying the national taxation, to inflict small blisters upon the taxpayers. Sir F. CROSSLEY was of °Mame that the tax would be a Krum Injustice, especially in the case of elms-housce. Mr. HUBBARD criticism' the proposed new arrange ments for the imposition of the income tax, which he pro- nounced a tissue of inconsistendes, at variance alike with principle and preoedent. Sir J. FERGUSSON urged upon the Chancellor of the Exchequer the advisability of giving fuller information re garding his proposal to tax public charities, so that these institutions might know exactly what they had to face. Mr. BAINES generally approved of the budget, but denounced the tax on charities as an impost levied upon religion and benevoleoce. The LORD MAYOR urged that .11 charities would be curtailed in their usefulness in proportion to the amount of income tax levied upon them. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, in reference to a timbales' question mimed by Lord E. Gull. said that charities were by law charged with the income tax, but had hitherto been exempted. The harden which would be laid on St. Bartholomew's by the proposed tax would be not more than 700/., which could not have the effect of limiting its usefulness which had been stated. He denied that he bad curtailed the opportunities of diamming the items of the budget, as by rule the in come tax on charities could only be discussed ea the second reeding of the Customs and Revenue Bill, and controverted the statement of Sir H. Willoughby that there bad been large deficits in the last two years. He de dined to go with Mr. Hubbard into a third debate for the session on the equality or inequality of the income ten. As to giving an opinion on the prospects of that tax, he, of all men, had had warnings enough against rash prophecy on that subject ; but he would venture to say that if the country could meet its expenditure by 62,000,000 L or fr3,001:,000/., the income tax might be done without. As regarded the tax on charities, it was not to apply to those supported by voluntary subscriptions, but only to endowed *White. On this point he should make a full statement on Monday next, and would then desire that the matter should be thoroughly sifted ; and unless he could make out that the proposition was founded on strict justice, let the house reject it. . . . Sir 8. NORTiLOOTB mid that the bill did not show the armagernenta which had been made for exemptions from and modifications of the income tax on charities. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that it would apply to permanent endowments, and not to any in comes from voluntary charities which were temporarily de rived from investments. Kr. WALPOLE pointed out that it was necessary to draw a distinction between charities the endowment' of which wen administered in the gross and those which were distributable to individuals in small sums, in which letter am, as all existing principles of taxation, such chari ties should be exempt. Mr. BAGWELL warned the government that on this subject they wen lately to ravens onsicterable opposition from the Irish members. Yr. HENLEY hoped that time would be given to ex amine into this intricate and u yet unintelligible question. The coly poist in which that could be understood was that it woe itaid to establish that it was jut to rob the Some further discussion followed, in which Lord J. Man ners, Lord H. Vane, Sir J. Pakington, Mr. Melina, and Mr. Kinnard took part. The motion for the second reading we. agreed to, and the bill ordered to be committed on Monday. Bir J. PAKINGTON charecterised the attack made by the right bee. member for Kilmarecok and the boo. member for Heareshoroesb as unfair ' sad in bad taste, believing that his hon. friend bad not laid himself open to such an attack. (" Hear, bear," and arias " Oh.") Mr. OOLLINS moved that the Speaker leave the shah, is order that the house might go into committee on the bill. Mr. BOUVERIE moved as an amendment that the house will resolve itself into committee on the bill thin day three months. The hones divided : For going into oommittee 139 deaths' lB2-43 JUDGMENT'S LAW AMENDMENT (IRELAND) BILL. The house then went into committee upon Mr. White side's Judgments Law Amendment (Ireland) Bill, but, after a few of the clauses had been goue through, the Chair man was ordered to report progress. The house resumed. The Marriage', kn. (Ireland) Bill was considered as muscat!, and ordered for third reading. Oci the motion of Mr. H. Sevitouit, the select committee on the Ecclesiastiosl Commission was nominated. the mum bee of members being, on the motion of Mr. LTOON, in creased from 16 to 17. Sir J. FiIIGUMON obtained leave to bring in a bill to re gulate the compensation for accidents. Mr. Bikowm.t. obtained leave to introduce a bill to amend the Towne Improvement (Ireland) Act.

The plaintiff instituted the snit, us shareholder in the bank, on behalf of himself and all other shareholders therein, except such v. were defeodants, against the bank, and the directors of it. The object of the suit was to obtain a declaration that the defend ante had been guilty of such misrepresentation and suppression as to entitle the plaintiff and the other per sons who had paid their money for shares on the faith of such misrepresentation, and in ignorance of such suppree sioo to repayment thereof by the defendants' ; and for an injunction to restrain the defendant. from enforcing and receiving a call of 51. par share on the slams of the bank ; and from establishing any banking business in competition with the private banking concerns existing in certain towns in Wake, in which towns the Bank of Wales Company pro posed to establish branches.

Mr. LEFROY asked the Underdiecretary of State for the Colonies if soy of the five colonial bishoprics which had been vacant had been offered to any of the Irish clergy? Mr. C. FORTB9OI7E said that be should perhaps bout gnawer the question of his hoc. friend by describing to him what was the peee..t date of those five ems. They were Gibraltar, Gudharn in Auatralia, Quebec, Tasw.ann, and Nassau. With respect to the see of Gibraltar, his noble friend the Secretary of State had bee, in cmomuoication with the Archbishop of Canterbury, with whom, virtually, the appointment rested. As to the new see of Goulburn, it had been filled up—the first bishop wee, in fact, nominated by the late Archbishop of Canterbury. With respect to Quebec in Canada, he bad to state that • bishop to that diocese bad been elected by the synod of Cicada. With reference to Tasmania there was now no actual vacancy, although one was likely moo to occur. There was some doubt about the sdary and the probability was that it would be found necemary to fill up the expected vacancy by an appointment to be made in the colony iMdf. (Hear, hear.) As regarded Nassau, the vacancy caused by the death of Dr. Caulfield—who, he might mention, was an Irishman—had been filled up by his noble friend the Colonial Secretary. The fact that the late bishop of the diocese was an biahmaa showed that the Irish clergy were not excluded from colonial bialsoprica (Hear, hear.) He could not, however, withhold from his hon. friend a cora mimic:ea= which bad reached him within the last few Loan. Since the notice of his hoc. friend had been placed on the paper he had received a communicaticio from& clergy man in Lancashire, stating that he had bees acting as • clergyman there for the last twenty years, and that it was • singular fact that daring the whole of that period there had been no instance of • Lancashire clergyman having become • colonial bishop—(" beer, hear." and laughter)— although, he added, Lancashire contained • greater number of members of the church then all Ireland. (Hear, hear.) However that might be, be could assure his boo. friend that his noble tripod the Secretary of State for the COIODit• would be moat ready wad happy to have the opportunity offered to show his respect for the Irish church by choosing, if he weld, • properly qualified Irish clergyman for • colonial bishopric (Hear, hear.) UNEMPLOYED FACTORY OPERATIVES. Mr. FERRAND asked the President of the Poor-law Board whether the number of those factory operatives who h►ve never applied for nor received relief were included in hie return of the unemployed ; and also whether there was any return of the number ot unemployed unmarried women. Mr. VILLIERB said that the return which bad been made by the Poor•law Board included those unemployed factory operatives who applied for relief as well as those who had not applied. In reply to the mooed question he had to state that no return had yet been made of unem ployed unmarried women, but that loch a return was is course of preparation. THE INFORMATION AGAINST THE OWNERS OF THE ALEXANDRA. Mr. WHITESIDE asked the Attoraey.Gsweral whether he could state when his expected the information against the owners of the ship Alexandra would be tried ? The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said he was not at present in a position to "se the information asked for by his right hoe. tad laareed friend. COLLECTION OF NAVAL MODELS AT SOMERSET HOUSE. Lord It MONTAGU asked the Secretary to the Admi ralty whether the Matantent was correct whkdi had been made by Mr. Scott Russell, in a paper read before the So ciety of Naval Architect., on March, cosearning the collection of models at Somenet•hoeae, viz., that "it bed been throat down into a cellar, shut up in the dark, and was now effectually kept out of sight?" Lord C. PAGET mid that the models referred to by the noble lord were not as well placed at Somerset-house as could be desired owing to the want of suitable amommoda- Um in that building. The statement, however, of Mc. Scott Rummell was a great exaggendson. It was not the fact that the models were threat down tato a cellar or kept in the dark. (Hear.) CHICORY. Sir K CODRINCTON &eked the Chancellor of the Ex chequer, was the duty Mod on chicory by a resoliatioe of the houie, or must than be a bill to rides the duty. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that the customs duty oa foreign chicory Mon effect from the passing of the resolution by the conimittes, bet was levied subject to the condition that if the house did not subse quently affirm the resolution the duties should be re turned. On the other heed, the excise duty on British chicory wee a dormant questioo at the present period, in asmuch as there would be no British chicory liable to that charge until the gathering in of the mope. THE GALWAY MAIL CONTRACT. Lord DIINKELLIN salted the Secretary to the Trea sury if the details of the Galway Ooetrset had been agreed npoo, and the cause of the delay in laying the °mitred upon the table of the house. Mr. GILF,GORY said that before his right boo. friend answered the question he wished to pat another upon the same subject. It bad bees stated in another place that the stipulations of the new contract would be based upon the conditions of the former contract. There via, however, a difference of opinion between the Post-care and the com mittee of the House of Cotanioes, of which he (Mr. Gregory) was chairman. as to whether the ships of the company should go to Newfoundland M three days. He wished to know, therefore, whether the Treasury had cossidemed the matter, and were prepared to offer an opinion a to whether they would abide by the decision of the Poet-ofEce or of the com mittee. Mr. F. PEEL said that the Admiralty report as to the ships of the company had only reached the Treasury about ten days ego. At this manna the coeditors under which the company should be allowed to resume the mail service had not been finally determined upon. The matter was, however, in • forward state. In I reply to the question of his bon. friend the member for Galway he bad to state that the company's vessels under the retract of 1860 were boned to call at fit. John's oe their way out and ea their way boon, and to deliver tele graphie meseyr at that port if required to do so. There was • dispute Mtweea the Post-office and the company as to whether Msee wens booed to deiiver mails at fit. John's. The siommittee of the House of Commons expressed no opinion se to the chliptiose of the company aoder the **erect, but it did ewer as opinion so to the intention of the parties entering late the cootract. The chief object of the con tract was, ao doubt, to secure communication with Ante ries in Is days, sad he thought that the company ought to tenor every series to the public which they could reason ably be called upon to do. Mr. BOUV ERIE Inquired whether any proposal bad been made to alter the destination of those steam pockets at the other ride of the Minnie, and if so, whether the govern ment had rate to say chicane on that point' Mr. P. PIEL said that no proposal had bees made to the government with reference to the port of arrival at the other side of the Atlantic ; but be had been informed that parties representing interests in Canada had been in commu nication with the company i• reference to converting the fortnightly mere late • weekly service.

Sir H. VERNEY said be wished to ask the right hoe. gentleman whether he was prepared to propose the openiog of a road from Carlton-house-Minim to the northers extre mity of Spring.gardene. Mr. COWPER said that Carlton-house-terrace would be ceothsued on the greyed thee vacant, and building lessee bad bees vented by the crown of that ground.

It would involve the pulling down of the house 'bowl ixcapied by Messrs. Gordon and Ellie, sod also the widening' of the northern portion of Spnovgafeloomf.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, in movuq to commit the Stock Certificate. to Bearer Bill, grated that the object of the measure was to make a certificate of stook payable to bearer an negotiable • sonority an a Bank of England note. It also proposed to prohibit trustees from dealing with the stock, and to take all needful precaution. against fraud. Mr. E. D.

Mr. DENMAN seconded the motion. He thought the home hied been treated with scant courtesy as to thin measure. There was a general feeling that this bill had been read a second time per incurious, and that it did no credit to the house. (Hear, hear.) Mr. VANCE said he thought that this was the first time that an order was snored to be discharged in the absence of the hon. member who bad chugs of it. There was a general impression that the committee would not he taken before 10 o'clock. Mr. 11IINTaaid he thought the same courtesy ought to be extended to the bill of the hon. member for Knareboroogh es had been extended to a former government bell (which had been postponed. Mr. EIItNATCHBULL-HI7GESSEN said he asked the bon. member for linareeborough yesterday whether he meant te being in his bill that night, and be distioctly said yes. (Hear, hear.) The bill had now been teed a second time, end he thought it was highly disrespectful to the house to say that if an Loa. member happened to come down to the house after dimes in time, the bill should go on ; if Dot, that it should not. He disclaimed the imputation of dis courtesy which bed been thrown out against that side of the hoes& RIDLEY moved the adjournment of the debate. After some further conversation, during which the hon. member for Knareaborough entered the hotue amidst some ahem. Sir G. GREY said he thought that side of the house hada right to complain if a general intimation that the bill was not to come on had not been communicated to them. Sir H. RIULEY begged to say he distinctly understood an hour aglthat the menus would not come on to-night. Mr. COI INS said, in answer to the right 1100. gentle man the Home Seeretary, that it was his intention to go on with the bill. (Hear.) He had no reason to suppose that the government Wainer would be finished before 11 o'clock. This was the first Thursday that the government had pet on the paper no business for the house to tram:wt. He had net therefore thought it neoemary to be there earlier. (Cries of " Oh, oh," and interruption.) As he bad to speak on the question of adjournment, he might take that opportunity of saying what Ise wished to say respecting the bill. It appeared to him to be a most harmless measure. It contained only—(the hon, member here commenced reading the number of lines in the bill with mush gravity, to the great amusement of the house)—it coeteined only live lines and a•brilf. (" Hear" and cries of " D vide. " ) They were not going to church for some time. (Laughter.) The bill went on to say, "Be it enacted by the Queen's most excellent Majesty, a most excelleot provision. (Laughter.) He hoped that so loci as he held a senors that house he should never prefer that • measure should be enacted in any other way. (Continued laughter, and cries of " Oh.") Had they ever heard of the government busi ed= being Relished at nine o'clock ? (' Time.") He knew be was talking against time. ("Oh, ob.") The bill provided that every elector should reside within seven miles of the borough. (" Time," „ Order.") He had not the slightest idea why hon. members called "Order." That had always been the limit, but the house would be surprised to learn that the mode of measuring the distance was different in every borough. His proposal was to measure from theboandsry. If the law of Scotland were anomalous and mishit° be rectified, to ought the law of Ireland to be, instead of the kind aetborities there having the power of fixing the pines of periling at elections. He came now to the wise of Ragland and Wales. The law with reference to Wale' was twofold in almost every borough, but in one re. mect it warn se improvement on the law of Ireland sod Scotland, because there was so uncertainty as to the point tom which the seven miles should be met. In Ragland the Mika were measured from the place where the poll was " heretofore" taken, which might mean the centre or the aubvbsoleisreagh. Why, he asked, should not every elector in Ragland have the miles measured from the bouedary of a borough? He concluded by moving that the Speaker do leave the chair. Mr. MARSH denounced the bill as a job, and as a measure for the encouragement of bribery sod corruption. Who, he leaked, were freemeu but men whom they knew could be amity corrupted ? (Oh, oh.) Sir H. BRUCE said the hen, member made a most offensive charge against those whim supported the second readiest of the bill, hot it was wholly unfounded. Mr. E. P. BOU VERIE observed that it was unexampled hi the home that a member should complain that a bill of which be boil charge had come on at an earlier period than he aeticipeted. With regard to the noun adopted by the he.. imenber for Knermbormigh, he would repeat what had once been said is the house, that the rules of the house were made by gentlemen for gentlemen, and be would add, that if those rules were d i sregarded, the sooner they were mended the better. (Cheers.) ._ j COURT OF EXCREQUER.—Apan, 30. Bitting In Itsnoo.—(Before Lord Chief Baron Pollock and Barons Martin, Bramwell, and Wilde.) GIBBON V. BODD.—PETNICIANti . TIM. This weaanactioa* nee — a --- claim for medical advice, attendance, and medicine, tried before Mr. Baron Bramwell at Guildhall, when the jury returned • verdict for the plaintiff. Subsequently Mr. Lush, 14.0., obtained a rule to to set aside the verdict and to enter a nonsuit, and it now came on for argument. The jury found that the plaintiff bad attended the patient in the chancier and capacity of physician, sad the important question raised for the opinion of the court was whether a physician could, nadir the Medical Practitioneis Act, 21 and 22 Victoria, nu. 90, recover his professional fees. The prin cipal authority upon the point previous to the passing of this act was " Veitch v. Russell," in which the Court of Queen's Bench held in 180 that a physician had in general no legal right of settee for his fees, but he might have it by a special contract. Mr. Cole, in ,showing cause against the rule on the part of the plaintiff, contended that the act in questioa had ex pressly given a physician the right to recover his fees. Mr. Lush and Dowdeewell having been heard on the other side, The Lord Chief Baron said that all the members of the court were of opinion that the rule should be discharged. The proviso to chum 31 put an end in his mind to all doubt about the true cocaine:Sion of the clause itself, be cause it said that all persons registered under the act should be entitled according to his qua lifications to practise medicine or surgery, or medi cine and surgery, and to demand and recover in an court of law reasonable charges for professional aid, advice, and visits, sad the cost of medicines. Then, with respect to physicians, it said that it should be lawful for the College of Physicians to par a bye-law to the effect that no one of their fellows or member, should be entitled to rue in the manner aforesaid in a court of law, and thei such bye-law might be pleaded aa a bar to an action. That seemed to mean that whereas heretofore there wee a doubt about the right of a physician to recover his fees, it should now be the law that he might recover them, but, severtheless, the College of Physicians, if they desired to preserve that sort of dignity which was secured by irot practising except for some supposed honorarium might pass a bye-law for the purpose. Formerly, the presumption was that the services of • physician were honorary sod gratuitous, at least so far that he could not make • legal claim for pay ment ; but now it was the other way, end a physician prac tising, without making • distinct arrangement that he we ant to be paid, was entitled to be paid and to recover his claim, unless he were restrained by a bye-Law of the Goa lies of Physicians. He therefore thought the plaintiff was entitled to recover. 7 iir71311;0;1 llortin and Mr. Baron Bramwell having ex pressed a similar opinion, The rule was dime Mr. Baron Wilde h rAtt the court to attend chambers before the cam came on for argument.
