(Hear, bear.) TEE FaIDTCH GOVERNMENT AND THB AMERICAN WAR. In answer to Lord STILATHIMS, Earl RUSSELL said that in consequence of rumours which had lately been very much circulated, Baron Gros had milled at the Foreign-office about an hour ago, and stated that he bad received no orders from his government to make any commtmication to the government of bar Majesty re specting the American•war.

The Earl of DERBY, in moving for • copy of the Pro clamation leaned by Sir H. Storks for the Lion of the lonian Islands to Greece, took occasion to protest against the doctrine laid down by Lord Palmerston that. as these islands had been plaited under the protection of Great Bri tain, the lioglish parliament had no interest in any ques tion width involved the cessatioo of the protectorate. He vow of opinion that the canoe, whilst of no benefit to this ooantry, would be eminently disadvantageous to the halms Islands themselves, and that it was not likely to condues to a general good understanding of European arrangement.. fixt, he believed that the only reel effect of the measure would be, as far as Greece was coseerned, to throw into the monarchy of that country • restless and dinatis ffeil population. His principal object in calling attention to the question was to ascertain the course of proeeidings which the government had adopted ; and he wished to know whether, in the cession about to take place, any arrangement had been made for the payment of peesious sod allowances hitherto granted. and for which the faith of her Majesty wee pledged, and also what provision had keen made for the repayrosat of the loan made by this country to Greece. Fan RUSSELL said that the role object of the govern ment in the late arrangements was to secure • free consti tutional monarchy for Greece, and to do all in their power to promote its material prosperity. His (minim was that the duire expressed for the annexation of the Louise • Nandi to Greece was only • natural use on the part both of Greece rend of the islands themselves. He denied that the loss of Corfu, as a military and naval station, would be disadvantereous to this country. On the contrary, instead of causing a diminution of the strength of Great Britain, be thought that strength would be greatly augmented by our having only one great station in the Mediterranean in time of war. It was necessary that the great powers who were parties to the establishment of the protectorate should be coninilted before it should cease, sad for this purpose ' steps were about to be takes for • conference, at which the 'abject would be considered. He apprehended, however, that no difficulty would be interposed by either of the I":7and her Majesty's government had already received ,3;asestrances from both the French and Russian ambassadors. Nothing had yet been door which could have the effect of binding anybody. Prince William of Denmark was not bound to accept the Greek throne, r., itber were the lonian people or the protecting states bound to assent to the canine of the Wanda With knurl to the fortifications at Corfu. it would be matter for onnaderatioe whether they should not be destroyed, se they were of too great magnitude for a weak power to =retain, end might afford temptation for aggression to a strong power. Is respect of financial arnumemants, the utmost this country could lose would be a sum of 4,000 f. a year, and he did not think that the people of England would re gard that u • sacrifice, if the result was to render Greece happy, and secure for her people • free oonstitutional go vernment. The Duke of NEWCASTLE st►ted that no proclamation Led been issued by Sir EL Storks on the reception of the news that Prime William had accepted the crown of Greece. Lord STRATFORD DE REDCLIFFE doubted if we were rendering any reel service to Greece by greeting her this addition to her territory, and expressed the belief that absadoement of sbe protectorate by England would mate rially lessee oar influence in the eut. The motion vu withdrawn after some observations from Lord Tauntoa, the Mamais of Normeoby, sad the Earl of ifardwicks. THE CONDITION OF VILLINERS. The Earl of SHAFTESBURY moved an bumble address to her Mejeaty, praying that an inquiry into the physical and moral condition of milliners and dressmakers should be wide by the royal commission now sitting on "the state of children and yourig_pareons in triples and manufactures not regulated by law." That commission consisted of three gentlemen. whose eagaeity. judgment, feeling, and principle rendered them fit to carry out an inquiry of this nature. They would Mks abundance of evidence, and would no doubt be able to devise some system of legislation for putting an end to the existing abominations. (Hear, bear.) Earl GRAN VILLE concurred in opinion that the royal commission would be competent to deal with this questioe. Ile bad coosulted his right boo. friend the Home Secretary on the subject. and the result was that the matter had already beat referred to the commission. The motion was therefore withdrawn. Their lcrdships adjourned at 10 minutes to 9 o'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—TrzwAr, Juxi 30. The house reamed at six o'clock. DISTRESS IN IRELAND. Yr. LANIGAN wished to ask the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether he would introduce soy bill this session to facilitate the execution of public works in those parts of Indite where the want of employment had placed the worlang classes in as destitute a condition as the operatives were iu the manufacturing districts in England. Sir R. PEEL said the government did sot contemplate bringing in any bill on the subject. THE CLEARANCE OF THE GIBRALTAR. Mr. HORSYALL wished to ask the Under•Serretary of Meister Foreign A ffairs whether the Britiah ship Gibraltar, bound for Nassau, had been refused a clearance by the Ourtorne setheritiee at Liverpool ; it so, on what ground the refusal was based, and whether it had been done at the insteghtioti of Mr. Adamii, the American minister? Mr. LAYARD said that, in answer to the question of the bon. member, he had to remind the hones that the Gibraltar was aent'rer name for the welLknows vessel the Sumter, which ha i sailed to Gibraltar under peculiar aircurietences. She come to Liverpool, and it was known to the government that she was shipping pee of very heavy calibre. It was true that Mr. Adams had celled the attention of the government to this fact. The government, however, were aware of it, and the clearance was stopped by the eturtom.home officers, but not at the instigation of Mr. Adams. It had since been foetid the. t these guns did sot eoustitute aft and proper atmameat for the vessel itself, mad the law officers of the crown wore of opinion that the fact of putting them on board was not sufficieut to justify the government authori ties in withholding the clearance, and be believed the clear ance would be returned. (Hear, bear.) NAUTICAL SCHOOL AT GREENWICH. 1 Sir M. RETO wished to ask the civil Lord of the Admi• salty whether it was intended to ereot an additional wing to the Nautical School boildinp at Greenwich which would not be in keep* with the sew wing lately erected at a con siderable ores to the funds of Greenwich Hospital ; and , whether there would be any obj e cti on t o an oaths* plan of the proposed wing being laid before parliament before in- Gomm any further expenditure on account thereof. Mr. STANSFELD said the plan referred to had not yet been adopted. He bad only that day received the report, and would have no objection to lay at on the table. THE RECOGNITION OF THE.

In coetegosooo of moons &gloat, be also to ask, *bother any recent COMMUDieRtion liad ba Mt roceived (rem the Freculi government reTiestiog a joint offer of mediation. or proposal for au armistice, between the contending parties in America Yr. LAYARD—It is very important that I should give a clear and definite answer to the question of my hoe. friend. I have then to say. that no oninmaiication whatever, either no regard. mediation, or armistice, or recognition, or mar thing of that nature, has up to this time been made to her Majesty's government by the French government. (Cheers.) Of muse, I mean since last autumn. PRECEDENCE BETWEEN DUBLIN AND EDIN BURGH. 1 Mr. BLACK asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, is regard to the printed °corespondent. re lating to the corporations of Edinburgh sad Dublin. if the deliverance of Sir Charles Young. Garter King at Anne, is to he held as antloritetive in the question of precedence between Edinburgh sad Dublin in presenting addresses to her Majesty. Sir G. GREY said be knew no higher authority on the subject alluded to by the hon. member than Carter King at Anna. THE COMBINED NOTES TO RUSSIA. Mr. FIORSIIAN pve notice that on Thumley next he should ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs on what day the French and English notes arrived at St. Petersburg, and on what day they were preifrated to the Russian minister; also on what day the Austrian note arrived at St. Petersburg. and whether her Majesty's ambaneador was instructed to keep tack tin English note until the Austrian note had arrived. DETENTION OF THE GIBRALTAR. Lord It. CECIL asked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether two port Blakealey guns which bad been shipped on board the Gibraltar at Liverpool had been detained in pursuance of an order of the government, and whether he would lay upon the table of the house any instructions and correspoodence which had taken place on the subject. The noble lord read a portage from a letter in which the alleged detention was stated, and which also »- promoted that the collector at the port of Liverpool had stated when making the seizure that had the guns been. intended for the service of the Federal States no objection would have been made to their shipment ; and further, that such shipment. to New York were of common occurrence. The SOIIOITOR.GENEItAL said he had been requested to reply to the question, and had to observe that the letter read by the noble lord ought to be • warning to the house against listening too readily to suggestions of that descrip tion. So far re the government were aware there was not • particle of truth in them. (Hear, bear.) He believed it was impossible that say odker of the government at the port of Liverpool could have no greenly misrepresented his untroctioos. The facts were these. The Gibraltar, the well. known mac-of-war of the Confederate States, was formerly called the Sumter. A sale of the vessel took place, the *laity of which, accordiuo to the laws of war, had never hews admitted by the Federal States, but the government felt that it was a question which they could not decide. When the government were informed that this vessel, after her alleged purchase by • mercantile firm at Liverpool, was lying at that port, and that she was being armed with two ' guns of extraordinary weight and power. they felt it to be their duty to satiety themselves whether they were meant as en armament for the vessel, or for cargo ; or whether there was reason to believe that the intention of the shipment was of • different character. The port clear ance of the vessel was ordered to be delayed, but only until ovidence could be obtained to satisfy the government on these points. As soon as it was sumwtained that the guns could not be used for the detente of the ship, being too large for the bows, and Sc guns by themselves could Lot be stopped, the delay of the port clearance was removed. (Hear, bear.) Lord R. CECIL said his question had not been answered. He wanted to know whether the papers would be laid upon the table. hued with Northern feelings that they express indignation at this assertioe, but the truth is known that our Warner would destroy their fleet. ('' Oh! ") Their armies are melt lug away. Their thermion Is tolling back. Washington is in danger. And the only fear the North hes is, that the indepandeiooe of the South will be established without the abolition of slavery. (Hear, hear.) Them is soother argu ment which I wish to present to the minds of such hon. gentlemen opposite as are capable of un derstanding it. ("Oh, oh I") Itis this: • large portion of our tualtufactoriug population have been Hein for some months upon charity. - Noss people in that condition very soon acquire the habit of idleness, after idleness has been enforced upon them ; and I have learnt from Manchester that already an unwillingness to labour is creeping upon the people, and if we have to keep them in idioms through the coming winter we don't know what the consequences will be upon our manufacturing population. Now, again, I will give the words of his Majesty the Emperor of the Enoch—and they are very remarkable. He said, "I dread the coming winter with regard to my manufacturing popu- Litho." (Hear, hear.) My hon. friend the memb e r for Sunderland said, "We do not dread the coming winter, though we know that great misery must be entailed upon our manufacturing population if the cotton famine con tinues ,• but we desire to avert a calamity from our country men which will necessarily arias from • continuation of that famine." (Hear.) I will, as shortly'," I can, state the memo why I have been induced to address the house. At the present moment there is offered to us • great Weepiest*. (Hem ' hear.) If we take time by the forelock that time will prove of advantage to us, and we shall become a greater people, and England will be the imperial city of the world ; but if we abstain from Lakin advantage of the opportunity offered to us it will go at ones and for ever. By adopting the resolution we shall do no harm to the black men of the South, but, on the contrary, it will, if agreed to, be the 1 means of preventing further bloodshed and injustice. The hon. and learned gentleman concluded amidst great cheer tag by moving the resolution of which he bad given notice. Lord R. MONTAGU moved the following amendment : " That this house earnestly desires that an impartial neutrality should continue to be maintained by her Ma jesty's government during the present unhappy °outwit in the states of North America? No one (observed the noble lord) more admired than himself the noble struggle of the Southern states for their independence ' • but when he wished to bring a matter before the home it was not his habit to run one day to the Emperor of Austria and the next to the autocrat of France for advice. He argued from numerous precedents that the time had not yet arrived for England to take action on this question ; that recognition at this time would, therefore, be premature, and an armistice would have no other effect than to per petuate discord. War would inevitably follow with the United States, and the consequence of that moat be • greatly increased burden of taxation upon our people. Mr. CLIFFORD gave his cordial support to the &mead men ; but whilst fully egreeiog with the conclusions to whic the noble lord had come, be did not wish it to be supposed that he coincided with the sentiments by which those conclusions were prompted. (Hear.) Although he did not at all approve of the language which bad been need by the hou. member for Sheffield, he would other himself Adele from any violence of language on either side, for be believed it was a struggle in which both parties had acted from moseieutious motives. (Hear.) The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said if there was one moment beyond anther more incon venient for making • motion of this hied, be thought that even the hoe. end learned gentleman himself mast confess that this was the most bowmen's:it (Cheers.) He did not my that the issue of thia contest was, humanly speaking, in any degree doubtful, but this he did say, that there was not • single epoch daring the whole period of the contest which bad now been raging between two and three years, on which they could lay their finger and say that at that point of time there were military issues of such vast memos% both in the east and in the west, and upon which so much depended, with regard both to the position and the wishes and intentions of the belligerent parties. (Hear, bear.) But if the motion was objectionable upon principle, and if the particular moment at which it was made was io some respects unfortunate, there was another point, as to , which lie bon. and learned friend must be held memo : able and that was for the speech with which he had in trodUced his motion. (Cheers.) He began with petty com plaints of the obloquy to which he was about to expose himself. He (the Chancellor of the Exchequer) rather pitied those who undertook to enter into • contest of that nature with the hon. and learned gentleman. (Laughter.) In that land of free speech, and to that house of freedis (tension they perfectly understood each other, with respect to an occasional interchange of mere bard words. (A laugh.) The speech of his hon. and learned Irked had an importance far beyond the sharp words that might be launched against this man or that ; he (Mr. Roebuck) could not disguise, he was too honest and manful to disguise, that his speech was couched in • spirit of the strongest par tisanship with the South. (Hear, hear.) A speech which recommended recognition in • spirit of determined ad pas sionate partisanship wee likely to impart its own character to the measure it recommended. It was not a very easy matter to separate between recognition and intervention and if it even were, the very fountain bead from which the proposal proceeded, wan emaciated through the whole of the argument with undisguised hostility to one ot the parties, and what chance or hope therefore was there, if recognition took place, of true neutrality being maintained ? But the hon. and learned gentleman went on to speak of our duty to the men of Lancashire. What was the nothing of that part of the subject ? Recognition morely would not relieve the men of Lancashire--(beer, bear)—and when the bon. and learned gentleman spoke of the relief of the distressed theme following as a result of the action he recommended, he contemplated something more than recognition. He would not stop there ; he would follow up recognition with those other measures which alone would, be thought, meet the necessities of the ease, and the clear neemaities of the argument. Such being the motion and the speech of the hon. and learned gentle man, he confessed that be saw very ample reason for their not being adopted by the house. He did not believe that the restoration of American union by force was obtainable. He believed that the feeling of this country was almost unanimous on that point. (Hear, hear.) He believed further that public opinion in this country bore very strongly on another question, end that wan ehetber the emancipation of the negro race could be legitimately pur sued by means of coercion and bloodshed. He did not be lieve that a more fatal error was ever committed than when men of high intellect and of sincere philanthropy came to the COUCILIaIOII that the emancipation of the negro was to be sought even if it were only to be reached by Unveiling through a sea of blood. (Cheers.) With the people of this country he earnestly desired to see the contest brought to • close ; but did it therefore follow that he was to support the motion ? What was the recognition called for by the boo. and learned gentleman? Was it to be with or without intervention ? The government felt with the hon. and learned gentleman that it wan time this war should end, but they had more faith iu the gentle action of public opinion as it grew and was matured in Europe epos the American mind than in any diplomatic act*, which must tend to an appearance at least of interference in American affairs, and particularly so if they came from quarters which would have the appeerance of selfish motives, and therefore suspected. (Hear, hear.) The government were not indifferent to the manner in which the North had pursued this war, still they would deprecate in the strongest terms the motion of the hon. and learned gentlemen. The house should not run the risk of making worse that which was sufficiently horrible already; or add to those feuds other fends and other quarrels which wield carry still wider desolation over the whole face of the earth. (Cheers.) ?dr. W. FORSTER said he rose for the purpose of supporting the amendment of the node lord. The motion of the honourable and learned gentleman wan a very distinct proposition to recognise the South. He was glad that the question bad been brought before the house, for the time was come when, in the in ternees of those whom they represented, they should decide whether they intended to call upon the government to Jute?. fere in this terrible war or not. (Hear, hear.) He thought that recognition at this time would be premature and • breach of neutrality, and there should be no net of interval tie) except they were prepared to enforce it by arms. Such a recognition would be a caaus belli to the North if the North chose to make use of it. The motion would be an empty boast and a pompons nothing if they were not prepared to enforce it. The honourable and learned member's motion meant war or it meant nothing. (Hear.) We could sot see what might be the result if we left the contending parties alone, but we could see whet would pro• habil , be the remit if we interfered. One probable result would be that instead of the old 'mien Icing ton into two conflicting clean:dm—North and South—it would be tom into rose) , states, sod we might by our assistance to the @murmur the North, doom that great country to cen turies of anarchy and internecine oonflict. But what WAS quite as likely to result from our ioterfereece wee that at • great cost to ourselves we should node the North against us, and the triumphant slave Confederacy could never be the natural allies of Elegised, for the English people would roma° true to the traditions of their freedom. He feared this war, bemuse it would be a slavery war ;_ it would be an unprovoked and aggressive war; nod, therefore, au unjust war . (Rea r , - hear.) He feared it because it would be • barbarous and on-Christian war, inasmuch se it would be • war on behalf of that system which was in conflict with freedom, with the spirit of trite religion, order, and morality, and he feared it also because there was a great Ruler of nations to punish middle's and injustice. . _ . —.. . .. .. .. Lora. CECIL, in supporting the motion, said the solemn deolarstien of two great powers that the ease was hopeless would givesn enormous blow to the war party. (Cheers.) It was well-known that the press was subject to a virtual censor. ship, and that the people knew very little how the facts really stood; but recognition would teach the people not to trust any longer to the statements of their leaders and to the pregame of the contractors, who were making so much wealth for themselves out of the war. (Hear. hear.) It had struck him (the noble lords as very curious that the Chancellor of the Exchequer should have abstained from the slightest allusion to the remarkable statement of his hon. and learned friend (Mr. Roebuck) with respect to the Emperor of the French. The government might rest assured, however, that the matter could not be embed le that way. His hon. friend talked about the Emperor appniuting second ambassador to the House of Commons. But what was the mass The cause wee a deem on the part of the hoe. member (Mr. Roebuck) to refute the absurd rumour' which, for the defence of their owe policy, her Majesty's government had circulated. (Oh, oh.) If the positive state ment of the boo. member was net socurate, let the Ceder- Memytary get up and give it a !Genial teetvedietket. The statement of ths hes. member was, that her Majesty's go rummest hadreesived from the Emperor as offer to mediate, in coujnoctiou with England, 'between the two parties in the.Usited States; that that offer was transmitted to Lord Lyons ; that Lord Lyons betrayed it—of course he did I lot mean to Lord Lyons with tressoa. but Lord Lyons betray a e h d a 2: secret to Mr. Seward ; that Mr. Seward ' remonstated with the Preach minister ; sot that the first definite reply the Emperor received so his offer was that which thus same to bun through his minister at Washing ton. The house moat Lave au &Darter to that statement. It would not be content to have it passed over as the Chancellor of the Exchequer bad done it. The Emperor, every out would allow, was a prudent sod sagacious sovereign. and he would never have adopted the very strange and extraordinary course of communicating directly with the House of Commons.—(opmaition cheer.) —a very strange and extraordinary °muse tt was—(cheers) —unless lie had been driven to it by the treatment which be had received from the Foreign-office. (Oh, oh.) The house must have an explanation of this most extraordinary illus tration of the entente cordial*. No doubt the ahem* of the noble vissouot made it very difficult to explain the course taken by the government • for it was easy to see how little able Majesty's minis ters were to give say definite outline of their policy when the noble viscount area not there. (Laughter.) They had heard to-night that there had been an answer given in the Mouse of Lords to a statement which bad been made in the House of Commons. (No no.) Mr. FORSTER—My statement was this. I said that Lord Russell had stated in another place that Baron Gros bad called upon him to say that certain rumours were entirely without foundation. (Hear.) Lord R. CECIL thought the House of Commons might likewise have had that important information brought down to it by the Under-Secretary for Foreign Affairs. (Hear.) They had lately had several illuatnitions of the i 130011•001- enee which resulted from having all the chief secretaries in the other house, and ell the under-secretaries in this. (Cheers.) They had frequently had important explaoatioos given in the other house which had been refused to this. Wear, bear.) It was clear that her Majesty's government stood alone, the single obstacle to that recognition of the South which would procure food for our starving opera tives ; and that for the course they had taken they must make • more satisfactory defence than the vague and loose theories which had been propounded by the Chan oslior of the Exchequer. (Cheers.) Mr. BRIGHTsaid that the motion taken in counexioa with Mr. Roebuck's character, his speech on this occasion, and speschearliewhere, ought be taken as an address to the crown asking for • declaration of war, while he asked the house to accept the lead of the Emperor of the French in this matter, a potentate in whom not long ago be declared be had no faith. He contended that the feeling which dictated this motion rested oo • mean jealousy or a base fear of Ame rica. He denied the power or the will of the United states to act aggressively towards England or any other European nation, and he protested against Mr. Roebuck's raising • cry calculated to bring on hostilities between this country and a friendly nation, while he would seek a ll iance for his country in a slaveholding state. Mr. P. WYNDHAM moved the adjournment of the debate. (Loud cries of "Lindsay," and "Go oo.") Mr. LINDSAY rose to address the house amid mice of "divide." Sir G. GREY said he should be sorry to interpose be tween the boo. member for Sunderland and the house, but he desired to give an answer to • question which had been put by the noble lord the member for Stamford in the course of the debate. He should say i n= of the extraordinary conduct of the hoe. sad gentleman, who had charged himself with the personal duty of enlightening the home as to the views sod inten tions of the sovereign of another country with regard to • question of great public interest, and who had conde scended to make himself the channel of complaint of • foreign sovereign against the government of his own country. To my the least, it was • great breach of courtesy; but he thought the noble lord the member for Stamford bad attached more importance to that statement than the rest of the house bad done. (Hoar, hear.) The noble lord complained that hie right hon. friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer bad not noticed the ex traordinary statement made by the hon. and learned member for She ffi eld, and had expressed a hops that before the debate closed her Majesty's government would give some explanation on the subject.. He (Sir G. Grey) was totally unable to give any explaoation of the statement of the bon. and learned member for Sheffield. He could only say that all the hon. and learned gentleman had dated was totally at variance with the information pos sessed by the government as to any communications having passed between the government of France and her Majesty's government on the subject of recognis ing the Southern States. (Hear, bear.) At an earlier part of the evening, in reply to the boo. member for Brad- ford, his hon. friend the Uuder Secretary for Foreign Affairs stated that no communication, at least no recent communication had been received from the government of Francs by her Majesty's government proposing mediation with regard to the war in America, or proposing the recognition of the Southern States. Since that statement was made to the house it had come to his knowledge, through the hon. member for Bradford, that just before the meeting of the other house, Baron Gras, the ambassador of the Emperor of France waited on his noble friend Earl Russell, and informed him that it had come to his know ledge that reports were in circulation of some such proposals having been made, and he stated to the sob le earl that be bad not been instructed to make any such communication to her Majesty's government. (Hear.) Ile did not doubt the veracity of the boo. and learned member for Sheffield, but he could not reconcile the state- meat he made with the corcmunication which bud been made to his noble friend the Secretary for Foreign Affairs. Mr. NEW DEG 9TE snid the people of this country would not be satisfied if the house approved of a motion which had beep placed on thejournals of the house at the instance of • foreign potentate ; and the passing of it under the circum stances in which itweeproposed wonidgivesuch offence Coate people of America that the object it bad in view would be defeated. (Hear, hear.) The object of the motion of the hon. member for Sheffield appeared to be the termination of the war by peaceful negotiation, but the speech with which he introduced it was calculated to defeat that object, and therefore, anxious us he was to me the war ter min►ted, he should oppose the motion. (Hear, hear ) The motion for the adjournment of the debate was then put and carried. Lord R. MONTAGU inquired whether the government would fix a day for the resuming of the debate. Sir G. GREY said that the discussion of the motion could probably be resumed on Monday next. Mr. ROEBUCK said he hoped the house would come to a division on Thursday next. The consideration of the mo tion could be proceeded with on the motion for going into committee of supply on that evening. The house then proceeded to the orders of the day. POISONING PREVENTION BILL. Lord RAYNBAII moved heseontia reodiug of tbio bilL. Sir G. GREY objected to the bill, and thotifht the noble lord could not entertain any hope of push g it in its present shape. He moved that it be read a second time that d►y three months, and the amendment was carried without • division. CASUAL POOR (METROPOLIS) BILL.

FITZGERALD repeated his question of the previous evening as to the form in which the surrender of a sum of 4,000/. a-year by this country, with a violet., make • previous for the new King of Greece. was to be effected. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that the 4.000/. a-year was portion of a ver7 much larger sum due to this country, as its share of the interest on the loan made by the three protecting powers to Greece on the foundation of the kingdom. With respect to the manner in which the government proposed to give effect to the sur render, the question was under consideration, and he should be able to give • precise answer to the question in the tonne of • few days. RECRUITING FOR THE FEDERAL ARMY. In reply toe question from Mr. FERILAND relative to the alleged recruiting at Leeds by agents of the Federal govern ment of America, Sir G. OBEY said that the papers he had received from the thief constable of Leeds on the subject had been laid before the law officers of the crown with a view to ascertain whether there was "'ancient evidence to warrant legal pro oeedingn. The opinion of the law officers had not yet been received. PROPOSED RECOGNITION OF THE CONFEDERATE STATES. Mr. ROEBUCK, in moving an address to the Queen praying her Majesty to enter into negotiations with the great powers of Rumps for the purpose of obtaining their co-operation for the recognition of the independence of the Confiderate States of North America, drew a brief and rapid sketch of the settlement of the North American oolocies, their growth, revolt from the mother country, and the ultimate establishment of their independence. By the accomplishment of that they had asserted two points of intermtional law which were of great importance at the present moment. The first of these was that any people determining to throw off their allegisnee were jus tified in doing so if they bad the power; and the second was this remarkable one: France bad ioterferrid is the dis pute, and she bore the same relation to the revolted colonists that we did now to the Southern Confederacy. Let England sad Frame but acknowledge Southern independence, and there would be an ea] to the war. The boa. member con tinued :—The mode which I propose is, that this house should pray the Quota to enter into negotiations with the great pewees of Europe in order that they may lied to a ream- Ditiou of the South. Now, the great powers of Rumps means really France. (" Oh, " and " Hear, bear.") No other power, except Russia, has any fleet, and Russia we all know ma do nothing. The only power is Prance, and France and Ragland unitiug and acknowledging& South ern government. there will be an end of the war. (Cheers.) I am now obliged to enter into a sort of personal history, and I hope the house will excuse me, for I am now going to state that I know certain things about the state of the mind of the great French ruler which I am authonied to lay before this house. (" Hear, bear," and sensation.) I scarcely know what that feeliex of astonishment means, ex cept that people's minds are likely to be astonished who have thought properly upon the subject. (Hear, hear.) I was met lately in the lobby of this home by an boo and learned friend, who addressed me in this manner. Re said, "You propose to the house to addrees the Queen, and ask bar to enter into negotiations with the great powers of Europe. Do you know that 1 have heard today upon very good authority that the mind of the French ruler has changed upon this matter, and that the noble lord at the head of the government will come down and say, "It is all very well for you to make the motion, but I know the mind of the French ruler has changed, and that the time has gone by for him to recognise the South." I wai something like the Scotchman when he beard such • statement, I doubted the fact, and thereupon I wrote to the bon. member for Sunderland (Mr. Liodsay), know ing that he bad authority given to him to write to the French Emperor whenever he might think proper, and might wish to me him. (Laughter.) lam stating the fact. I wrote to the hon. member, and said," Suppose, for the purpose of ascertaining whether that rumour be true, we go acme at once to ask the question." (Laughter and " beer, hear.") I know that bench (pointing to the Treasury bench) right welL I know that they are wonderful at circulating rumours, and when they have got en object in view there is hardly any rumour they will not circulate. (Hear, bear.) My letter to my hon. friend got to Paris, and the substance of it was laid before the Emperor, and we howl this : now what the house has beard front the Under-Secretary for Foreign Affairs might seem somewhat surprising. but I am not at all surprised at it the Emperor of the French said that so soon as he had learned that that rumour was circulated in England—and be told me then, and gave me authority to my it in his name to this English House of Cgtmmons—he mid," so soon as I learned that that rumour was being circu lated among the gentlemen of England I gave instructions to my ambassador here to deny the truth of those asser tions ;" and when I spoke to his Majesty be rid , " I have not only done that, but I have dose more ; I have not only given him authority to deny the truth of the assertions and to say, notonly that my feelings were exactly the same, but it anything still stronger in favour of &recognition of the South ; and I have also told him to lay befor e th e British government my understood wishes upon the matter, and to ask them again if they are willing to join me in that recognition." (Cheers, and hear, hear.) Now, sir, there is no mistake about this matter. I pledge my veracity that the Emperor of the Freoch told me that, and he told me that he had sent to Baron Gros ; sod to tell me now that the British government does not know that this has on. curved, must mean wens smarm—some diplomatic masker. It cannot be true. (Hero, hear.) I pledge my veracity for what I have said, sad Ido not believe the world will doubt my word. (Hear, hear.) I pledge myself that this is trim so ter as I am oonceroed ; end what is more, I asked his Majesty this. 1 laid before him two courses, I said, your Majesty may make a formal application to Englaad. He stopped me, and said, " No, I cannot do that, and I will tell you why : some months ago I did make a formal application to England, and England sent my despatch to America. That despatch ggoot into Mr. Seward*, hands, and was shown to my ambassador at Washington, and it came hack tome, ►od I feel that I was ill-treated by such eon duct. (" Hear, hear," sod sensation.) I cannot subject myself to the danger of similar treatment. But I will do everything abort of it, I will give you full liberty to date to the English House of Commons that this is my wish, and to state that I am determined in all things to act with Righted, end mem than this, that I wish to act with her as regards America." (" Hear, hear,"and cheers.) With this before us, that the government can plead Momenta of this het Ido not believe. Then, with this fact before them, are they not prepared to act with Frame? Am they afraid of war? War with whom? With the Northern Sales of America! Why is tee days we should sweep their seas of every ship. ("Oh, ob.") Ten ere raw people oc. CISRPoRAL PUNISHMENT IN SCHOOLS BILL Lord RAYNHAK moved the mooed reading of this bill. Sir O. GREY opposed the bill, which be said would sanction instead of prevent excessive puniehments by brutal men. The law was at present stifficieutly powerful to meet cans of that description. Lord H. TREVOR moved that the bill be read a second tine, that day three worths. Mr. BASS thought legislation was required to put an end to the degrading system which prevailed at Harrow and Rugby, but recommended the postponement of tLis bill to •future session. qtr. LYGON hoped hon. menders would not think it neesmary to detail their personal experience u to oorpoesl punishment. (Laughter.) Mr. CONINGHAM thought that the system of inflicting corporal punishment on boys was useless and disgraceful. (Oh. oh.) The bill was then thrown out. METROPOLIS MAIN DRAINAGE.

The resolution was agreed to, and the house resumed. PUBLIC WORKS (MANUFACTURING DISTRICTS) BILL. This bill was read a third time and pained. POOR LAW BOARD CONTINUANCE BILL.

Describing this ascent, Mr. Glaisher writes : The balloon lurched a great deal, and it was with difficulty that Kr. Negretti placed the instruments in position in the car, and even thee there was frequent danger of their breaking, owing to the swaying of the balloon and the car striking the ground; to prevent which the united exertions of 50 man were scarcely sufficient. Unfortunately there was not gas enough in the balloon to contend with these circum►tances, although there was plenty had the day continued calm, and consequently we bad at the last moment to part with Ave bags of sand to ensure clearing the adjacent buildings. This Ices of weight eateed us to rise quickly, and ite want afterwards we, severely felt. When at the height of one mile we had no more nod, and simply became a falling body, checked somewhat by the balloon ; we threw away leaden weights, Sac., to help check the rapidity of the descent. The ground wind was strong and the descent somewhat rough —we rebounded from the earth three or four times, and finally the grapnel caught in a water course. The management of tbe balloon oa this occaaion, with its increasing weight, whilst rising and falling with too small amount of pas, and consequently of sand, called the different powers of Mr. Con well into play, and his management of the descent—l was almost about to write "Jockeying'—wss equal to the occasion, and doubtless saved many of my instruments, which in lass able hands would inevitably haw been broken. The unexpected circumstances which preceded our leaving the earth had called upon Mr. Coxwell for great personal exertions to prepare for the ascent, and on starting he was in a state of perspiration, arid so wholly engrcesed that when the balloon left he had no extra clothing. The decline of 30 dogs. of temperature in a quarter of an bore caused him 'to feel a most painful degree of cold, and on attempt ting to lower the grapnel I had to attend to his instructions with respect to the valve, and finally to moist him in lowering the grapnel : at lb. 20m. his ha-As were blackish•blue. At the height of three miles a train was beard, and at a height exceeding four miles another train was heard. These heights are the greatest at which we ever beard sounds, and indicates the generally moist state of the ►tmosphere. This ascent must rank amongst the most extraordinary ever made; the results were most unexpected. We met with at lent three distinct layers of cloud on emending of different thicknesses, reaching up to four miles high ; when here the atmosphere, instead of being bright and clear, as it has always been in preceding ascents, was thick and misty ; bat perhaps the most extraordinary and unexpected result in the month of June was meeting with snow and crystals of ice, floating in the atmosphere at the height of three miles, and of nearly one mile in thickness. The plaos of descent was in a field adjoining the farm of H. Jones, Esq., on the borders of the counties of Cambridge mid Norfolk, 20 miles from the mouth of the Wash, and about 8 miles from Ely, next to the field in which the dam of the celebrated racehorses Gowninuan sod Avenger was grazing, but which did not show any signs of fright.

LA 2.1 BETH. A case of • truly distressing ehnricter bas been brought under the coasideration of the Hon. G. C. Norton. ri n Saturday, the 9th of May last, a osniplaint bad been made at this court by a young woman, who rid that she had b ia s induced, from peeing sa advertisement io a morii paper, to call at • registry-office in the Kenuhistoo. r and seeing the proprietor, Mr. Burnett, paid b un 5.. t 3 have bee name registered and take her chance of the tint suitable situation that offered itself. She (the complainant) attended daily at the house of Mr. Burnett, but found, as she maid, that there was no claws of getting • situation from there; and therefore her mother and herself complained that the To. she bad paid had been o btained by false preteens.. Mr. Norton, to whom the application was made, granted • summons mailing Burnett, and wishing to learn something further of the cue, he instructed sergeant Shepard to make some Inquiries respecting the " registry," and how the busiocn had been conducted there, and the report of that officer was by no mune favourable. Mr. Burnett had an intimation ou the Saturday that an application would be made to a magv trete, and lacking the moral courage to meet the charge or complaint, be destroyed himself. It ham since transpired that although he haslet one time a very good business, be had been unfortunate of late years, and that he had a wife and an young children depending upon him for supp o rt. These as now left utterly destitute. By desire of the magistrate Mrs. Burnett attended before him yesterday, aeconipsnied by soma friends and three or four servants who had been provided with situations from her house. . . . Toiton remarked that it was much to be lamented that her late husband had not sufficient morel courage to meet the charge made mains; him, but the question now wee what could be done for her and her poor children, and faked her whet she ioteoded doing Mrs. Burnett replied that she could work at her needle, but having sin comparatively helpless children to attend to she was scarcely able to do anything else, and could not hope of providing for herself and her children while she bad such a burden. Mr. Norton said he considered hers a most distressiag cue, and one deserving of public sympathy, and he had no doubt if the press would kindly notice it she might be enabled to get some of her children in one or other of the numerous public asylums. For her present use he should • order three pounds from the poor box to be handed to her, and hoped that other sums would reach her. Mr.. Burnett expressed her gratitude to the worthy magistrate, and wm moved to tears by his kindness. MARKETAS. TALLOW.—TUMMAT Emma. The market me steady today.

The yarn market has been exceedingly quiet, and spinners have been anxious at a decline of id. per lb. on Friday's prices. Some ftiersZ declinees of standard spinning. have been made at the full prices of Friday, bat this is not general, and the market closes about id. per lb. lower than the prices of last week. There hasbeeua very wide sympathy with the Southern 01[116 amougst the cotton trade from the first, but the consequences of a recognitiou have been shrunk from almost universally, and such a proposition, if seriously believed to emanate from the government, would cause general panic and coo eternation. The cloth market has been quite as flat as that for yarn, but we do not hear that prices bars been affected. Yesterday there was a rather better feeling amongst menu. facturen, the advice. from America tending to confirm the opinion that the war was likely to be prolonged. There was less anxiety to /e ll , and holders of goods were firm at the priorof last week. The telegram alluded to above his changed all this, and commercial men of experience my they have seldom known such an entire absence of demand. Buyers are holding back, and will touch nothing at all. Prices of cloth are not quotably less than lust week, but there have been no offers to test them. There are iodina tion. of weakness amontat sellers of cloth as amongst spinners, but buyers appear to be more decided than before to keep out of the market. WOOLLEN CLOTH.—Lague, Joss 30.—The half year closes to-day with a very quiet market in both depart ments. A few autumn samples changed hands, but beyond that very little was done, and the 11. tt., oda we of buyers was limited. Witness and goods of that class appeared to have the preference, and diagonals of good substance were also inquired for. In light fabrics a few job lots met with pur chasers at very low Agana. Rates, however, on the whole, were fully sustained.

WOOLS.—HODDERSVIELD, JUNE 30.—A vociferate quan tity of Germans has arrived &wing the week. and some of the beet classes hays found purchasers. Transactions in co lonial wools have fallen off to some extent, but prices re main firm.

At our market this morning we bad a moderate show of wheat from the growers, sod having very little in from the coast, the trade opened with great firm ness, still, however, transactions were only to a limited extent, our millers being disinclined to give the price demanded.
