LATEST INTELLIGENCE. THIS DAY, Four o'Clock. IMPORTANT FROM AMERICA. PROPOSED PEACE WITH MEXICO. The Zurich, sailing packet, Captain Thompson, arrived at Havre on Monday last with news has New York up to the 21st ult., the day on which ate left that port. The first fact in order of importance, communicated by this arrival is, that conditions of peace have been submitted to the Mexicans, by M. Atocha, on the part of the American government. This document, which first appeared in the Journal of Guadalajara as a letter from M. Atocba to Gomez Farina and to Rejon, was afterwards copied into the Diario del Gobierno, a Mexican official jj ournal, and' reproduced by the j o urnal of New York, is as follows: A commission shall be 'named to Mate the conditions. That commission shall be composed of Mears. Benton and Buchanan, of a member of American Congress (belonging to the opposition), and of two Mexican commissioners. The commission shall assemble in a place to be pointed out by the Mexican government. The United States demand the 26th degree of latitude, from the Gulf of Mexico to the Pacific, as a line of division. The United States will pay 15 millions of dollars for the territory so occupied, engaging themselves solemnly not to make any formal demand for the expenses of the war. These expenses are estimated at 13 millions of dollar, and Ste United States consequently consider that they pay 28 Millions for the territory in question. The United States guarantee that they will never give their consent for any territory of Mexico, or the Mexican state, being annexed to the American union ; and they will equally guarantee the sovereignty of Mexico, more particularly that of the country that is situated to the south of the 26th of parallel. he United States will place 10,000 men, infantry and cavalry, on the frontier thee, to prevent contraband and in imical from the Indians. The United States outrage themselves to set aside all dif hence, relative to their former demands for ceded terri tory, foreign debt, &c., &c. lin alliance, offensive and defensive shall be signed be tween the United States and Mexico, for the purpose of re riling all European intervention in the affairs of America. M. Atocha is authorised by the United States govern- Lent to agree to conditions of a treaty of peace. The Prance Anserioain, a French journal, published in New York, under the date of the 21st ult., says, in reference to these conditions: " Such are, according to the Journal of Guadalajara, the bans laid down by M. Atocha, in a letter written to Gomes Pori's, and to Rej on. Two months ago the Mexican press would have ref eed such an insertion, or have accompanied it by the most furious declamations ; now the Diarso del Gobs reproduces it without commentary. Through these we see assuredly pacific symptoms. If the basis laid ton in the communication made by Mr. Atocha are adopted by the Mexican Government, the line of division formed by the 26th degree of parallel will cut the Rio Grande, almost at it mouth, leaving Point Isabella, Palo-Alto, Bunke dela Palmate) the north, arid Metamoros tothe south. Maaterey, the Pass of the:Rinoenada, and Saltillo, the field of battle of Buena Vista would also be comprised within the Mexican limits, but the United States would acquire the superior part of Tamonlipas, Du Nouveau Leon De Cabs bails, De Durango, sad De Sinaloa ' with the whole of Upper California, the Sonore, and Lower California, as far es Cape fit. Domingo. Letters from Mexico, received by several of oar American papers, announce an early consent to the renewal of aegonations; they affirm also that the victorious army of General Scott could not have reached Jaloppa, in its march on the capital before the propositions of arrange ment are made by Santa Anna. If this be the are, peace is already concluded. The greatest di ffi culty, es we have said before, exists, not in the solution of territorial questions or Indemnities between two countries, but in the prejudicial question of amour propre which, hitherto, has destroyed all attempts at pacification. This powerful obstacle once removed all parties have too much interest in the cessation of hostilities net to make mutual sacrifices to bring about an honourable transaction. At present Mexico has a regular legal admi strtration which may be treated with; but, unhappily, things change so rapidly in this country of revo lutions, that we fear tranquillity cannot last long already, even the overthrow of Santa Anna is spoken I l i of A letter from Quartermaster Montgomery, written tom Monterey to Century% reports that General Arista, irritated at tho disgrace put upon him by Santa Anea, and, above ell, hurt at the different treatment of which General Ampudia is the object, has raised seven thousand men, and will march from Zaceteeas on the city of Mexico, determined to overthrow the power of Santa Anna and to reinstall Herrera. Santa Anna, at the head of the remainder of his forces, has even marched to meet Arista. We know not what credit this important news merits, but, for the interest of the country who wish it to be inexact. Santa Anna wishes to finish; the present situation is favourable; a change would be tragerons. It is true that Herrera, Arista's candidate, has Sremally announced himself in favour of a cessation of hos tilities, bat a conflict would bring new complications, the heat dangerous result of which would be useless and regret able delays. The same journal of the 21st ultimo, state+ that the Louisville, arrived at New Orleans on the 12th ultimo, brought recent news from Vera Cruz. The result of the sanedition to Alvaredo was not known on the 2nd April. There were rumours that General Quitman had met with opposition in his route, but they were not con sidered to hare any foundation in truth. Colonel Harney, 2ad Dragoons, left Vera Cruz 2nd April to take pa session of Antigua, a town about 8 miles north ward. General Scott was to commence his march in a few days for Puente Nacional—he waited only Rai:fent awns of transport; he had seised upon all the road, right 414 Ise et Was ally M carne is himself rbito his Seam watt Oen.

The Moniker, received by express this m o rn i ng , announces that ;he vacancies in the French ministry had been filled up by the following appointments, viz. :—Jayr, Prefet of Lyons, to be Minister of Pub lic Works; Duke de Montebello, to be Minister of Marine; General Tresel, to be War Minister ; and Damon, to have the portfolio of Finances. COMMERCIAL er MARKETS. MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE. Two o'Clock.—Upon the whole, the currency die enslion, incidentally brought on last evening in the House of Commons, has given sat i sfaction in City eveles ; not. how ever, from a ociaviedon in any quarter, os far as we are aware, that a sionelnaive case was made out for Peers bill as bdag entirely innocent of any shore in tiri=g d about or amgravatiag that state et monetary sad derangements ender which tlhe % Il i w ee been , mid still baeletf~p ths omit assimatit• 40 4 t • push; Mons( mast h that the disseneks hems most damaging to the eurresey experiment ef that bill, that it may be safely armed its City tidewater', wherever they may be found, constitute numeriesUy a very unimportant mino rity. The chief—almost only—point relied upon for an explanation of its failure was still the mismanage ment of Bank'director, who, at a given period, enlarged their " other" securities too much, that Is, were too liberal of discount accommodatiot , and cease. greatly let their circulation run too much ahead. Foe the rest, the defence of the unimpeachable soundness of the principle of the bat was mainly based upon the hypothetical or rather assertion, that, after all, it has we- Is the prevention of the infinitely worse =men saiehief short of actual bankruptcy, bank at ns am be eenceivable, which would hays resulted from the working ef banking or currency laws as before in being, or from any other system that could be devised. Loose logie like this finds little response among the more practical ma ma sense of the City. A strong impression prevails that the dheussion must tend, by the force of facts drawn oat, to bring about eventually, if not a repeal of the bill, some con siderable alteration in its provisions. Benner is light again in the funds to-day, but the market upon the whole is better.

There was a decided spirit in the bidding., and prices are a shade dearer. The answer given to the question about stopping the distillers from the use of grain, in the house last night, evidently had an effect, but it must be considered as a point only to be resorted to in an extreme ease. The relined market has improved; lumps, 625. to GU., with a full amount of laminae—Rum has become very flrm.—Coffee: At the public sale of 4,500 bags Costa Rica to-day, Messrs. Trueman and Cook, the sell ing brokers, declared that approved " foreign bills on Lon don," not exceeding two months to run, would De taken in payment at six per cent., the same rata of discount as allowed for cub. The present crisis in the money market caused the introduction of this liberal concession to the buyers : this and other sales, however, went off heavily, and a very large por tion bought in by the importer.—lndigo The quarterly sale commenced to-day, and went off heavily, at an average of about 4d. decline upon the last sale's prices, and but a small quantity sold.—Rice 600 bags of very good white Bengal were offered and sold without spirit at 255., which did not support the highest price paid on Saturday.

On claim le being reed, the Earl of WICKLOW was about to AWN, en onewidnient, of which he hod given notice, when Lord STANLEY asked if the government would= to give power to the poor-kw eanustiesiowees naewsly the boundaries of unlock but atm of eleetoad divisions ? The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said web a power existed before, but he doubted the expediency of re-enact satlt.Earl of WICKLOW then moved that in the clause the following words be inserted : " that it be lawful for the oomminioners when they shall see fit to form iato separate electoral divisions towns with a population of 3,000 or up wards." He complained of the injustice of making towns support the paupers of the rorrouading districts. After a few words from Lord Brougham, lord Monteagle, sod Lord Campbell as to the wording of the clause, Earl ORE] said that there could not be framed a more eocuprehensiye clause, and that the amendment of his noble friend would isdd nothing to the powers of the poor-law 00012 . 11iSILOWITI. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE mid that if the amend tarot of the noble earl had any effect at all, it would be to restrict the powers of the comma loners. Earl FITZ WILLIAM said that he would smart * amendment, believing that the commissioners amid net exercise the powers given them by the clause as it at pout stood. The Marquis of CLANRICARDE opposed *it amenth meat, on the ground that he did not see why the pthelpia ebould be applied to towns containing 3,000 inhabits*, more than to pariabes or town-lands containing the lam amount of people. The amendment was thee put and asp tired. Clauses 21, 22, 23, were then agreed to, the last-mentioned with some verbal alterations. . . On 71,71;e1;14, which hid to the school for the North and South Dublin Uniens, being propceed, Lord MONI EAGLE suggested that the poor-law cam missionen should have the power to make an union of unions for the purposes of education, and to establish houses for education, in which the children may be provided for, and the adamant of industry should be superadded to the original mama et alhemeitei.

As the law at present stood, the rate wee exclusively levied on the runt ; but he had a right to deduct from his rent a pound ing equivalent to eneralf the rate. Practically, the law worked in this way ; the r•teable value of the land was every where much below thereat value; land let at 301. was perhaps rated at 201. • the tenant, therefore, while paying a rate of a shilling in chi , pound, or 110 a., deducted 6d. in the pound on the whole rental, or 15a from hie rent, thus throwing the greater part of the burden ea his hound. (Hear, hear.) In the majority ot the tesillenie paid two-thirds of the rates. (Hear, hut.) lEis malYr rat managed very dif ferently in England, it every no knew what would be the effect here if the fanner bed the power of levying a rats, and then throwing two-thirds of it on the landlords. What would be the effect on the increase of pauperism, and on the emp!eyment of labour, if smith a state of things prevailed hen? Infallibly, under such a rebel in Eng land, the result would be, the demoralisation of the whole parish, and its being overwhahned with pauperism. Hear, hear.) The only hope foe the regeneration of Ireland was by making it the Interest of the occupier to in crease the amount of labour ; and this stimulus could only be supplied by requiring the occupiers to employ the labour ers or support them when unemployed.

In Marquis of LANSDOWNE wished to meet the amontimmt fully and fairly, and to discuss it on its owls merits , exclusive of all other considerations. On those mettle, ad taking the most calm and deliberate view of thee whisk it was in his power to make, he had no baite d= in ging that the adoption of the amendment would be dithilmthain I reland-disastrous to the peace of Ireland, and almshouse to the MOONS of this measure, which he was now justified is saying the majority of their lordships were de- . sirens of seeing paned into a law. He used the term, " the majority " of their lordships, because they bad now gone thrive' the meet important clauses of the bill ; and yet even his wide friend apposite, the moot reverend prelate near him (the Arebbishop of Dublin), and those mat opposed to the peinsipis at the bill, had not, up to this moment, thought fit nil toles the tense of the house upon the clause which ealmeged the operation of the poor-law to the ex tent te which the bill proposed to go. Even now , Ids mar friend who had moved this amendment , was dubs= that the bill should be adopted by both houses , Mperliasmet, and should pass into law. The government add not deny that the measure was not without difficultier, bash, begged their lordships to consider what was the cha- , Old. of the bill. The measure was one which in Ireland regaind enteneive machinery to bring it into operation; it required the effort of all thaws of the community ; it de- ' mended the manikin* freely given of both landlords and tenants: all this united strength was necessary to keep up and stimulate the industry of the country, and to prevent the provisions of the bill being run into excess. That being so, it was the policy of this bill to give persons of all clams, but above all, the landlords and tenants, an interest in its admi nistration in the sounded, most careful, and most guarded manlier. (Hear, hear.) Hence, the proposition for equal- Ling the burden of the rates for the relief of the poor upon all these chums. Ard was there anything new in that prin ciple? The principle had been adopted and sanctioned by the legislature six years ago. Had it worked well or ill I—had it not reconciled tenants to the arrangement ? And yet, with proof. of its success, his noble friend proposed by this amend ment to introduce a principle which would ensure the ill working of a measure which he admitted he was anxious to see pus into • law. The introduction and adoption of the amendment would greatly aggravate the burden, which would thereby be wholly thrown upon the tenants, and not the landlords. Was this proposition the annunciation—the herald of peace to Ireland ? (Hear, hear, hear.) The bill proposed to impose the burden Nosily upon land lords and tenants, and he challenged his noble frtend's match less Ingenuity, and extraordinary powers of mind, if brought in contact with tenant O'Sullivan, of Kerry, or tenant O'Brien of Mayo, to satiety them that it was for their b;nott and advantsgs that they should pay the whole of the poor rates, and that not one penny should be osetributed by the landlords. If the ingenuity of his noble friend could be multiplied a thowiend times, he (the Marquis of Lansdowne) doubted whether a single tenant in Ireland would become a convert to his doctrine. He (the Marquis of Lansdowne) suspected that if this dectriec was maintained. the tenants of Ireland looking to their landlords would take the same view that in a similar matter had been adopted by that eminent and acute philosopher and moralist, Sancho Patna. (Hear, end • laugh.) Sancho Panes was recorded to have said " nothing in my mind is so desirable as the hoaour of leading—nothing so admirable as the possession of charity —and for these reasons, whenever I get into a fray or a battle, I leave the whole of it to my master." (fond laughter.) This equalisation of the burden was not now considered for the first time. It had been adopted in the settlement of the tithe question in Ireland, where the church, much to its honour, concurred with the then government in effecting a emoidemble alteration in the allotment of the burden, and I math, its collectioe easy and certain. The same prin =dbeen renewed and sanctioned by his noble friend it 1845. Then the division of the burden had been made, mg he the last two years had worked well in Ireland; for fire yard the same principle had worked well in Scot land, and yet his noble friend new came forward to detract the prbeelple, and thereby impede the amens of what some called • perilous, but which he (the Marquis of Lans downe) admitted to be an adventurous, experiment —an experiment which ought to have the aid and assistance which the co-operation of all classes in Ireland alone could afford. Whatever might be the imperfections of the details of this bill, the preservation of the principle of eqtudity of rating upon landlords and tenant/ ought to be preserved. The amendment would be fatal to that principle, end on these grounds he (the Marquis of Lansdowne) /JAW the house to dissent from it. (Hear, hear.) Lord WALSINGHAM shortly stated his intention to vote against the amendment, and to support the bill in its present state. Lord MONTEAGLE regretted that le felt cou.teained to vote against the amendment prowled by his noble friend opposite, because he was initialled that, by its adoption, the remote chance which even now existed of the successful working of the bill would aot merely be greatly endangered, but absolutely lost. Even if it 'had been proved that it would have been prudent that this tax should have been originally adopted, if it was an Raciest tax, he should say that the proposal now to cast it on the tenant would be beyond measure inexpedient. In some places In Ireland It would be impossible to collect the rates. This was not the time to augment a burden which in some of the more neeessitowi parts of the country was east on the clam lend able to bear it. If they were now =lfrom out-door to in-door relief, and from a probable it of 10e. In the pound to Is. in the pound, in that case the lesser rate might be cast on the tenant, but when they werepamlng from in-door to oat-door relief, and from Is. in the pound to 10e. it was impossible to take such a step. The Earl of HARDWICK?. thought that in voting for this amendment he was only acting in strict conformity with what was just, proper, and safe. The Earl of ST. GERMANS said be felt a strong opinion of the impolky and injustice of this clause. In England, if a man was about to invest his capital in land, he made his calculations with reference to the burdens which it lad to bear, so as to secure him a profit ; but in Ireland, if my calculation was made at all, it was only that he might obtain as much as would maintain his family. If, therefore, the burdens of the land were added to, he must be driven to support himself in en inferior manner. His noble friend (Lord Stanley) bad mad. an attack on him (Earl St. Oceanus) as being the bearer of a manage from the House of Commons. He disclaimed sub an intention. It was true he stated the opinion of • mile friend of his who had been recently officielly con sulted with Ireland, and who did not habitually act with el vi lauty by whom this amendment was supprted, and opinion he thought might have weight with this noble lords who were not well acquainted with Ireland. He had stated that in conversation ' with his noble friend fend, of coarse, he had his 'authority for making this statement), be had said that al though he agreed in the principle of the amendment, yet, from communications he had received from Ireland, he bad been indeed to change his opinion with regard to it. This amendment played the liberal and the grasputg landlord on the same footing. By the existing regulations, the tenant had a right to deduct half the rate from his rent ; and the principle had worked well in Ireland. In anti -1 cipation of this debate, he (Lord St. Germans) had referred to the records of former debates, sad In that which took place in the Irish Poor-law in 1839 is that hawse, although there was a vehement opposition, and ray strong I language was used. he could not mad • mingle weed with re-' ference to this particular clause.

He thought their lordships would art with little widow if they adapted the amendment. (Hear, hear.) The Earl of Al ALMESBCRY supported the amendment. The Earl of WICKLOW thought the propsition of the government would only tend to heighten the prejudices which existed in Ireland against the upper clause.. The effect of the clause would also be to mum confusion and em barrusment for yearn to come amongst the oocupicre of land Is that country. The Archbishop of DUBLIN did not intend to support the amendment, although he approved of the principle which ft declared ; but the only question was as to the application of that principle to Ireland. He was desirous that the bill should have a fair trial, and that no impediments should be thrown in its war, even for the sake of asserting what Right be considered a just principle. Lord REDESDALE supported the amendment. The Earl of ROSEBERY said that he would rather the hal should not pus at all than that it should pass with th clause recommended by the noble lord. The Earl of CLANCARTY said, that notwithstanding his belief that this poor-law, which was the English poorda - w an regarded relief, should be Engli-h as for as the rate-payers were concerned, yet he would withdraw his support to tie noble lord's amendment, as he had a motion to make which would meet his views on the matter en the bringing up of the report. Lord STANLEY said, that although several of their lord ships had determined to accord their votes against his amend ment, yet Ire had the satisfaction of knowing that there was not one of them, who, in the course of this diecuedon, had questioned the soundness of the principle which he had laid down, or had answered the arguments or the statements which he had made. It had been objected by some that the principle of the Irish Poor-law, which he wished to amend. had for the last five or six years worked well. He must say that those noble lords who argued in that manner entirely overlooked that which, in his Mew, was the whole and sole foundation of the argument& es width he presumed to base his amendment. Yes, the Wok Peordaw had worked well hitherto. But what was it isieleselo? Hitherto it wax carried out strictly within the 'address, and nudely oe.iflued to the destitute poor, and boi mild ea a claw cicalas wholly different sad wholly Ai. Mast items those to which this measure would be applicable. If smiler mime this measure were to be confined to the aged and klite~, did they think that he would have offered any to it? He meted satisfied with the existing of relief, because it would only apply M *IMMO which no exertion could increase or diminish, Mililleamount of which was not controllable. His whole was this, that it was the occupier in Ireland as M I TS Mit the occupier in England who had the power of em ploying labour, and that it was by that employment that the poor rata were to he kept down. They were now for the hest time granting relief to the able-bodied out-door poor, therefore he called on them when they were grantingrelief to grant it as they do in England, and to apply to this new state of the law in Ireland that which they felt to be essential to the state of the law in England Not a word bad been said in reference to that argument, not an answer had been given to the question. The question of relief to the able-bodied labourer out of the workhouse was, from first to last, not only not answered, but not even touched. Then he was told that this course of proceeding was introduced for the purpose of dividing the burthen be tween the landlord and tenant. Was this applicable to the present state of the land 1 He denied it. He was against relieving any oxe man and throwing the burthen en the other. (Hear.) What they were now about to do was to adopt for permanent legislation a most mischievous and dangerous principle. He thought that they were bound to lay down a sound principle, and kis was what they all admitted to be a sound principle, and although its operation be prospective, yet when they did lay down a law they should lay down a sound principle on which to gamy it oat. He saw that them was a ma jority against him, end that his was a view which it was not considered expedient to adopt. He bowed to their opinion, the generality of which he could not doubt, and he would sot, for the purpose of retarding votes, give their lordships the trouble of dividing, and he trusted that those of their lordships who had done him the honour of supporting him on this occasion, and whose sentiments coincided with his with regard to the principle and policy which he laid down, would not think him unwise in not giving their lordships the trouble of dividing, and would permit him very respectfully, and at the same time with • lull conviction of the soundness of his principle, to withdraw the amendment which he had submitted to their lord ships. He felt it, however, his duty to say that he would more the same amendment on the bringing up of the report of the bill, not for the purpose of dividing their lordships, or of entering into a discussioa on it, but through a wish that it should appear on the journals of their lord ships' home that the amendment had been made, the sound • me of the principle laid down in which he trusted on a listen occasion to vindicate. The Bishop of LonDoN and the Marquis of CLANRICARDE said a few words in explanation. Lord MONTEAGLE then moved that the chairman should report p Lord CAM PBELL said that in all his experience he had never heard such a proposal. It was, in effect, that the bill should be reported, with four clauses limited in their opera tion, without any specific period of limitation being fixed. Lord MONTEAGLE consented to propose the limitation of which he bad given notice, bat modified it so as to make the act expire on the lot of September, 1860. The Marquis ef LANSDOWNE said, that in consenting for the amendment to be itaroduced at present, merely as information to the house of the extent of the limitation pro posed, he would not bind himself not to oppose the limiest lion at a future stage. The Earl of WICKLOW twitted the noble lord below Yen (Lord Monteagle) with having abandoned his own adopted that preposed by himself (the Earl of Ths noble lord had even gone so far as to make • some the limitation which he now advocated. amophiler.) Had the chairman been allowed to report pro mite shosid afterwards have proposed that the act be to three yearn. Earl FITZWILLIAM made some remarks on the effect of the general limitation already agreed to. Earl GREY said, there was no doubt the noble lord, the mover of that limitation, had misapprehended its effect. The house was bound to define this vague limitation. He would take no part in the dismission, further than to say, that he thought it perfectly immaterial whether one, two, or three years were fixed ; foe on one in his senses believed, that if out-door relief was same established in Ireland, it could he abrogated again. (Roar.) He hoped the house would have a farther opportunity of maundering the whole question of Earl ITZ WILLIAM disclaimed any wish to damage the bill, but said he should support the limitation, with tie view to render the bill as good as passible. So far from thinking that if out-door r.lief was once introduced it would never be got rid of, he believed that the system itself would tend to its own extinction ; and on this ground he was anxious for the limitation. The Archbishop of DUBLIN said he had understood from the first that the limitation already adopted applied only to certain clauses. He had always been in favour of out-door relief to the infirm sad tuff ring poor, but not to the able bodied. To the litter class he would not altogether refine relief, but a marked distinction ought to be drawn between the two classes. On this ground, he had been anxious that the principle, now first introduced, of out-door relief to the abl►bodid poor, which would necessarily be an experi ment, should be limited so to time in its application. The Marquis of WESTMEATH expressed himself against the limitation. Lord MONTEAGLE defended himself from the charge of seeking to damage the bill, by urging that he had voted for its second reading. After a conversation, the proposed limitation clans. was agreed to. Lord MONTEAGLE then proposed an amendment, the effect of which was understood to be the ritual of outdoor relief to the able-bodied poor. After a few words from the Earl of Cirrecairre and Earl FITZWILLIAM, The Marquis of LANSDOWNE suggested that the better cause would be that the clause proposed by his noble friend (which was not yet on their lordships paper) should be printed, and ►rought under consideration in the bringing up of the report. Lord MONTEAOLE acquiesced, and the preamble of the bill having been agreed to, the house resumed, and the bill ' was ordered to be reported with amendments. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE intimated that as the house would not sit on Thursday (Aseenaion Dar) he would name Friday next for the bringing up of the report, prior to taking the next stage of the Army Service Bill. Lord STANLEY remarked that it would be impossible to take the discussion en both bills on the same evening. The Earl of CLANCARTY said that many frith peers whose present* in Ireland was most desirable, were detained in town until the Poor Relief (Ireland) Bill was disposed of. Ho therefore hoped there would be no objection to the house sitting on Wednesday for the purposeof taking the nextstage of that bill. Earl GREY said that such an arrangement was Repos. tilde. The bill, at emended, had to be printed, and, more than that, several suggestions made in the course of the dis cussion, which his noble friend (the Marquis of Lansdowne) had undertaken to consider, could not have that attendee in the abort interval between this evening and Wednesday next which they required. Friday, therefore, was the earliest day the bill could be proceeded with, and though the Army Service Bill stood for the same day, he (Earl Grey) would postpone that measure if the debate on this bill was pro tracted to a late hour. iitereport ---- Ww7udered to be brought up on Friday, and the house adjourned at a quarter past eleven o'clock.
