IIANCE RY The Masters in Chancery Abolition Bill was read the woad time and referred to•select camegUce, after which the Lord Chancellor laid on the table three other mos mem intended farther to carry out various improvements in the administration of justice ia the Court of Chancery. each of these bills was read the ant time. CONVOCATION. Lord ItEDESDALE moved for copies of the forms of writs used for the summoning and prorogation of the con vocation of the clergy for the province of York, and stated that the ob'ect of his motion was to procure the Mlle pri vilege, for the clergy of the province of York with respect to convocation as were enjoyed by their brethren of the province of Canterbury. The noble lord drew the attest- Mon of the house to the question of the revival of convoca tion, and referred to the convocation at York for several years past, at which no business was transacted, and the archbishop did not attend. Ile eapressed a hope that in future years the archbishop would allow the session to be opened, as hail been done in the province of Canterbury, ia compliance with the wishes of the clergy . The Archbishop of York stated that on the occasions in ferred to, all that had been done was strictl consistent with .inctint practice and 1.1131:e. Ile could no t , therefore, eater into a pledge binding himself to depart from the cosh• nary custom, but the oteuvrations of the ouble lord should receive his best consideration. After a few words from Lord LITTLETON the motion was agreed to. APPELLATE JURISDICTION OF TUE PRIVY COUNCIL The Bishop of LONDON. referring to his bill in the ses sion of IMO, for regulating the proceedings of the Judicial Committee of Privy Council in all questions of religious doctrine, said he should us st year introduce another bill upon this subject, whic:i would differ front the previous measure in as important point. Ile still intended to pro- vide that questiotis of doctrine shall be referred to the bishops, or to the Upper Rouse of Convocation, fur their opinum ; but their opinion should be only communicated to the Judicial Committee of Privy Council, and not be binding. It would to merely communicated to them in the way of advice, and not of direction. The right reverend prelate expressed a hope that some proposition of this kind would receive favourable consideration trims the govern- bent. The Earl of DERBY mid he could not pledge the government to the course they might take on such a propo ; but he wan strongly of opinion that where questions of false doctrine or heresy arose, the opinion and Judgment of the bishops, although they might not lay down an abso• late and binding authority, mat be very important in directing sad guiding the mind* of those Ly whom the final decision bed to be pronounced. The Ecelesiaotical Muniments MU was referred to 'select committee. BURGHS (SCOTLAND) BILL. On the motion of the Earl of II asvo, this bill wee rend a second time.

THE DISTRIBUTION OF TILE FOUR VACANT SEATS. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said before he proceeded with the motion of which he had given notice, it would be necessary to go into committee on the Militia Bill, and then he should move that the chairman report pewee's, and ask leave to sit again. The honse then went into committee pro/crow, and w eaned. Lord JOHN RUSSELL said he understood his right hon. friend the member for the Univenity of Oxford meant to llror.Pothl;gt; of said t he d day. s y Understood it was a matter of necessity that the orders of the day should be read. He bad p.m notice, that the proposal which the right hon. gentieman meant to submit should not be entertained. Hav ing given that notice, if the right hue. gentleman wished to show why it should be entertamed, of course he should have so objection. When ho had made the statement, he should move that it be not entertained. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, then rem to move fur leave to bring in a bill to assign the four seats fore ited by the diefraneheiement of Sudbury and St. Albans. He referred to his answer made to Mr. Villiers in March as to the intentions of government, at which time he had stated that they designed (should the St. Albans Bill pass) to ask leave from the house to complete its constitu tional numbers. Ile was surprised and almost pained to Lear it inasuated that in proposing to introduce the pre sent bill he had sought to take the house by surprise. baying given notice of his intention as soon as he had beard that the royal assest was given to the St. Albans Hill. Having quoted the weeds used by hits as the occasion referred te e right right boa. gestleman proceeded as follows : HMO made these ebseivatioss because I wish to . yin agate myself from • charge which has been so freely tires lated. sad I west that the statements I haw made, whit ens may be the opinion of the house on the main subject, will auserate me from any charge of not having acted to enail the house in this respect with that straightforward mow which becomes us in the conduct of public business.

'men that the question we have to consider new is not a large question of parliamentary reform. (Hear, bear.) It is a question of apportioning vacant seats according to our existing parliamentary arrangement.; and I hope that if ever this subject is discussed, it will be discussed with this conviction. There may be gentlemen who disapprove of the present system upon which our constituencies are bead. These are opinions which they may entertain, and which I know may be powerfully advocated • but the pre =lotion is to be derided with referenee'to the coned whia exist. Well, sir, taking as a test of the re lative deism of different places to an increase in their repre sentation, the degree of representation which they at pre sent possess, I find amongstthem very considerable contain enein—countics and boroughs.

Taking ell them into consideration, and remembering that Is the counties the quali fication for occupiers a 601., sad that the constituencies would show a larger comparative purdahs than in the towns, where the qualification is amdlar—taking, also, into consideration in the counties the Vern surplus population, and the permanent national megilh which must not be omitted from our consideration, E a ll ai ej h esty's government have naive/ to recommend to here to apportion the .other two members to South ire.

(Hear, hear.) In that speech the noble earl had given the country the strongest reasons for believing that between this country and every other country, and especially between this country and Prance, there was no question in dispute which could re quire or justify the raising and training of forces in this country. (Hear, hear.) And if he referred to the speech of the French ambassador, who spoke on that occasion, nut only for his own country, but as the representative of the entire corps diploniatique, it was clear that foreign nations were equally anxious to see peace preserved. (Hear, hear.) Unless it could be shown that the Earl of Irby and the French ambassador were persons who could not be trusted, they had the most satisfactory and explicit assurances that them were no disputes between this country and foreign countries, but on the contrary, that there was the most per fect amity and confidence between this country and France and all tho nations of tho world. He hoped, there fore, that the government would postpone the measure, in order that it might have a better consideration from them during the recess, and that it might have a more impartial and ;deliberate consideration from parliament after the election. (Hear) But if the right hon. gentleman would not accede to this he hoped at least that he would consent to postpone it till Thursday or Friday, and that the question should in the meantime he brought under the consideration of a cabinet council, for he would not so insult the good sense and even the patriotism of the government, as ho supposed that they actually wished under the present cir cumstances that this bill should become law. (Hear, hear.) It was one of those unfortunate measures which govern ments did sometimes leave behind them to their successors, and** present government would act wisely in abandoning it at born he the present session. (Hear, hear.) He, and these who weed with him, representing a large amount of opinion elsewhere which was hostile to the measure, felt Amend In 'ppm the further program of so obnoxious • swam (Hear hear.) After a few wo rds: from Mr. BELL, Mr. J. W. FOX said that when two governments in sue amiss pressed the measure upon the consideration of par- Ikeinuat, it might have induced many members to suppose that there was some necessity for it. But no longer than two nights ago the noble lord (Russell) declared that there mono urgency, that he had no fears of immediate danger, and that he had no suspicion of hostile designs on the part of France. (Hear, hear.) Now, if such danger existed the noble lord must have known of it. How did the matter stand with respect to the government which succeeded ? They had the conjoint assurance of two governments, not that this was • measure of urgency, but that it was not a measure of urgency ; and he thought the inevitable conclu sion from this was, that no danger would be incurred by waiting till a new parliament assembled. On grenade of obvious policy and prudence he thought the government should accede to this suggestion for a postponement. Mr. WALPOLE said, as regarded the question of urgency, he must ob serve that while men could not be procured by ballot in less than three or four months, they might be obtained by volun tary enlistment in as many weeks-. The postponement of **ballot was therefore no reason for supposing that, in the view of the government, the urgency of the measure was at all diminished. He hoped they would now be able to go en with the bill. This clause had already been discussed for two or three evenings, and everything had been said that could be said upon it. Mr. HUME said his ground of opposition was this, that in a parliament which would expire in a few weeks, they were not justified in incurring an expenditure of half a million for bounties to establish a permanent army of re- Serve. Mr. FORBES could not understand what the duration of the present parliament had to do with the safety of the country. They were bound to take care that the defame were left by them in a proper condition. Mr. WAX LEY said the position of the government was very much changed by the vote of that evening. 'they bad lately been luxuriating in majorities apparently so subser vient that they could calculate upon them at any time. They were now undeceived. In his opinion they would shad better with the country by not pressing the bill than by peneveting. If they pressed it forward and passed it by tyrannical majorities, they would not be able to stand the questioning which they would have at the hustings. He would thereto,* move that the chairman do report pro gress, and ask leave to sit again. Mr. WALPOLE most repeat that be declined to enter into a discussion on the principle of the bill, the proper time for which would be on the third reading. Mr. ELLIS said that, believing the measure to be a most mischievous one, he should make no apology for endeavour ing by every means to throw it out. Mr. NEWDEGAI'E said, that as the hon. member for Finsbury had alluded to the division which had just taken place, he must remark, that it might with propriety be de signated a map division. (A laugh.) When it occurred a great number of the supporters of the government had left the house without the slightest notion that the division WAS about to take place. He himself had great difficulty in getting into the house, and he met many friends in the lobby who were in a consternation at having been excluded. He would therefore make the hon. member (Mr. Wakley) a present of that division. (" Hear, hear," from the minis terial benches.) The house could not be surprised at the opposition of the hon. member for Leicester (Mr. Ellis), as he deprecated an appeal to arms in any case. Mr. ROEBUCK wished the house to understand this snap division. (" Hear, hear," from the oppoaitinn benches.) He himself was surprised by the division taking place so early, and the effect was that he was excluded. Now, what were the numbers? 234 against the motion, and 148 in favour of it; and, the pairs being 80, the entire number of votes was 462. That was a curious snap division. (Hear, hear.) The feeling of the majority was, he believed, that the business of that house at the present time was simply to pass such measures as were necessary for the good go vernment of the country. The right hop. gentleman (Mr. Disraeli) was not pursuing a straightforward course, and could not govern the country on his own principles. In a constitutional point of view he was bound to withdraw this bill, and to content himself with passing the Mutiny Bill. Mr. NEWDEGATE said that, as the hon. and learned gentleman was shut out, he would not say anything more about the division, except that it was a moot point. Mr. REYNOLDS did not see any necessity for the .boa. gentleman's second speech. He had certainly not 'holm that 462 members did net constitute a large house. An hon. and learned gentleman (Ms. Whiteside) had made an eloquent speech in favour of the bill but he was MN English than the English themselves, for he said nothhw could save the empire but a heroic British militia. He said nothing about the Enniskillen dragoons, and did not think it necessary to have a militia fur Ireland. Of all the un warrantable measures he had ever known, this was the most unwarrantable. lie respected majorities, but majorities were sometimes +mesh and he con that the majority for this bill was than it would loes boa by its giving great patronage to ' of After a few worda tree' .

GIBSON wished to kaow what were to be the eaumptiaas, and what the liabilities, under this clause. He thought that both should be stated in the schedules of the bill. Mr. WALPOLE said that the liabilities sad exemptions would be die same es tiled by 43 Geo. 111. After • short conversation, Lord SEYMOU R suggested the postponement of all the compulsory clauses, and this among the rest. TM right hon. gentlentea said that this act foUuwed the 43rd Gm 111., but there was a difference in the ages specified iu each set. It could hardly be said, therefore, that this strictly fol. loweu the 43rd Geo. 111 Mr. WALPOLE denied that there was anything compul sory in this dame. If they did not mean to repeal the 13rd (l. o. 111., they must retain this clause. After a conversation, Mr. WALPOLE, iu answer to Sir 0. Grey, said he con ceived the Bth dame would only be necessary in the event of a ballot. (Hear, bear.) Ile thought it desirable that when a county had luruished its proper number of volun teers, it should be allowed to furnish a further number to bo allotted to some other county. Sir C. WOOD said there was a discrepancy between the the statements of the Attorney General and of the right hon. the Home Secretary. It Wu desirable the enmmittee should know what were the intentions of the government-- whether they meant to raise more than a certain number of volunteers in each county. Mr. WALPOLE said that the first nine clauses of the bill provided for the raising of the force by ballot ; clauses 10 to 15 related to volunteers ; the remaining clauses au. thorised resort to the ballot where a sufficient number of volunteers was not obtained. Sir C. WOOD repeated his question, whether the nom. ber of volunteers wu to be limited ineach county Mr. WALPOLE said the volunteers would he raised in quotas from the counties, where there was a deficiency the ballot being resorted to. It bad occurred to him that it might be desirable that counties should furnish a supple mentary quota, but that was not provided for in the hales it stood. There could be no objection to the insertion of • proviso to that effect. Mr. 11.0EDUCK asked what would he done where • county having to contribute —say IW—raised 500 volun teers The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said this showed the ne cessity of fixing the quota for each county, without which they could not proceed a single step titlivr by ballot or en listment. Mr. ROEBUCK—Then if Middlesex 14,940 volun teers, beton only called on for 5,000, you would not accept the 3,000 ? The ATTORNEY•GENERAL said that none would be raised beyond the quota fired fur each county. After was discussion, accompanied by cr iea of " Divide," The committee divided : For the postponement Against Majority —ll7 Mr. BRIGHT did not sec that anything wiei to 1w gained by going on to discuss the clause at Olt hour of the night. (Oh, oh.) lie should suggest that the words " fit and liable " should be struck out of the clog-r. Mr. WALPOLE would not object io :he omission of the words. (Hear, hear.) The words were struck out accordingly. Sir C. WOOD then proposed, in cider to render the clause clearer, that the following word, should he left out: " Take into consideration the number of men. fit and liablo to serve in the militia who are resident in the said several counties, ridings, and places, and to ascemin and." The amendment was agreed to. Mr. MOWATT proposed to add to the clause a proviso, declaring that no proceedings should 1. taken under it until after the 31st of December, 18.52. After some conversation, the proviso was negatived with out a division. The clause was then passed as amended. The CHAIRMAN then reported progress, and obtained leave to sit again on Friday. The following bills passed through committee: The Turnpike-roads (Ireland); the Belfast Custom House, and the Commons Enclosure Acts Extension. The Valuation (Ireland) Bill was read a second time. The following hills were consider. d as amended : Tito Apprehension of Deserters from Foi clan Ships Bill, sod the Regulation of Births, Deaths, and Marriages Bill. TILE COMMON LAW COURTS.

EXTRAORDINARY FATALITY.—The clipper ship Seraphim, Capt. Liething, which arrived in the port of Li verpool yesterday (Monday) morning, sailed from Paraiba on the bth of April, the Bel which left that port some days previously not having yet arrived. Out of thirty men and one boy which Capt. Gethhig took out on his departure from Liverpool, nearly one-third of the number, including first and second mates and the carpenter, were carried off by the fever, which was fatally prevalent at that place during the month of March. At one period Capt. Gething was the only person of the Seraphim's bands who was not prostrated by sickness; several of the hands still'remain at I.'araiba to he forwarded by the first British ship after their recovery - . The crew who brought home the Serophino is composed of men from many nations, yet the fast sailing reputation of the clipper has been well sustained on the occasion. The fever still remained very had among the shipping when the Seraphim sailed. 4 iteediel 1 " Limett lef Potts aclset 1.1"3 must be do of p Tin Taro MR. serious defeated to re-di chi-seine more re full hots or discu the gn toiled I nent n learner been a him. attenti conseg whom poise The sexy 1 What cours the 1 doubt have have vote. on tl II ER mini byit plea moe e pone will nark wou nen for, On beir is a a im tior cow time pon nee Jun eitl eno for def E tb w fr iv b b o lo O I 1 1 0
