The Earl of AIRLIE asked the Secretary for Foreign Affairs whether he had received any official report of the attack %hick wee alleged to have been made by a ship of war of the Ctited States no the ship Margaret and Jessie in British waters? Earl RUSSELL s►id the American Secretary of State, buts; seen the matter mentioned in the New York papers, immediately assured Lord Lyons that the captain of the Rhode Island gave a totally different account of the matter. It was impossible for her Majesty's government at present to do more than make further inquiries ; and no doubt if it tamed out that the American officer bad been iu the wrong, the government of the United Stater, in accordance with the voluntary promise of Mr. Seward, would make ample reparation. BRAZIL. ie supoiwted the resolution. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he would give a slight outline of the facts. In 1tt.58 the then govern ment—he thought unfortunately—acceded to • geuend reso ' -• . the question in consequence of the discussion which took place the other evening in reference to the conduct of our officers at Tringann. Lail C. PAC:ET said he had to state that the instructions given to our navel officers generally were to the effect that they were not to engage in hostilities or have recourse to violence without the sanction of their superior officers. And the officers at Tringann bad received positive instructions not to engage in any hostilities without the sanction of the Secretary of India or of the governor of Bombay—(hear, hear)— except in those cases where the liven and property of British subjects were threatened. THE SANITARY CONDITION OF THE ARMY IN INDIA. Mr. CONINGHAM asked the First Lord of the Treasury whether it wie the intention of her Majesty's government to act upon the recommendations of the commissioners ap pointed to inquire into the sanitary condition of the army is India, and at once to introduce remedial measure,' fur the prevention of disease in hot or unhealthy climates, so as promptly to check the mortality by which. " besides deaths from natural reams, sixty head per thousand of our troops annually perish io India." Sir C. WOOD was glad to inform the hon. gentleman that the attention of the government had been directed to the subject. Since the report of the commissioners was presented several improvements had taken place, and still more effective measures would be taken for the purpose of carrying inth operation the recommendations,,of the corn , =smilers. lution condemnatory of the piper duty. In 1860 the go vernment in office bad to consider whether it should pro pose to repeal the paper duty or the tea duty. They determined to propose a repeal of the paper duty, and a material element guiding them to that determination was the fact that there had been recorded a condemnation of the paper duty; but they afterwards found that one-half of the house was indisposed to attach any weight to that abstract question. (Hear, hear.) He was not going to say who was right and who was wrong, bat he moat say it was another proof of the danger of these ambiguous resolu tions. (Hear ' hear.) The suitable time to propose the re peal of a tax was when the financial plans of the government were before the house, and than that tax might be placed against the tax which the government thought ought to be repealed. That was done in 1861, when the government proposed the repeal of the paper duty. The opposition thought that the tea duty ought to be repealed instead, ard fought their battle well, but the government, fighting still better, carried the repeal of the paper duty by a majority of 12 or 15. It was very rosy to condemn tax by tax, but the proper way of proceeding in matters of taxation was to consider the various claims for deduction together. Nothing was more easy than to propose abstract resolutions on the income tax, the sugar duties, or the tax on conveyances, or on a multitude of other eubjecta, hut the house ought to re ceive them with caution and circumspection. There could be no doubt that they ought to part with this tom if they could, but if they could meant something relative and comparative, and they were not in a condition to judge liar tax - it - Lord CHELMSFORD called the attention 'of the house to the memorandum regarding amassment of compensation THE CHANNEL FLEET IN LOUGH FOYLE. in the cam of the Prince of Wales, which had been laid Sir H.

That was the principle on which he took his stand. and therefore he did not best about the bush by moving the previous question. He did not admit that an abstract resolution condemning a tax was fit to be put at any time, and after his experience on the subject he was determined to take every opportunity of registering his decided protest spinet such resolutions. H, however, next year, they should be in a position to make a reduction of taxation and they thought this the best matter for reduction, let them give it the first plena, but it was essential to public justice that they should not do it in the dark or M a corner, and without plac ing the tax in fair competition with the claims made by other interests in the country and in respect of commodities at present subject to taxatioe. (Hear, bear.) Mr. T. HARKEY said that the bringing forward of reso- In.ions of this kind was the only way in which such guns- Vons could be brought under disoasaion, and reminded the Chancellor of the Exchequer that it was in consequence of an abstract resolution that the repeal of the paper duties was ultimately earned. He condemned the report of Mr. Coeds. and observed that greater rubbish was sever put forward as an official document by any government. He did not think it was unjustifiable on the part of the hon. member for Dudley to ask the house te agree to the resolu tion, because be believed that if it were passed it would assist in bringing about the abolition at no distant day of this tax. Mr. SHERIDAN having replied, The house divided : For the motion Against 67-36 The announcement of the numbers was received with deers. FELLOWSHIP PORTERS OF LONDON. Mr. AYRTON, io moving for a select committee to inquire into the treatment of the fellowship porters of the corporation of London, said that these porters were a body long associated with the corporation of the City. They were a limited number of measurers possessing the freedom of the City. The last act of the corporation io regard to this body of persons was passed iu 1810, and they mulcted them to the extent of - one peony iu the shilling of their earnings, which mousy was spent io extravagant entertain ments, and not for the benefit of the fellowship porters. The benefit fuod was distributed in this way-001. for table Z 341. to the rulers, 1381. for an office, 100/. for a clerk, 101. for • servant, and only 1171. for the relief of the fellowship of the porters. It was monstrous that there should be this extravagant waste, lad he hoped that the house would in quire into the matter. Sir J. SHELLEY seconded the motion. Mr. CRAWFORD said be did not wish, and be was not instructed to ask, for a suppression of inquiry. lie had heard the speech of his bon. friend, and he confessed he could not cee on what ground be impeached the conduct of the corporation of the City. The fellowship porters were an old body connected with the City, and although the right of the corporation to make rules for them had been disputed, that right was confirmed. No doubt it would not be right to establish such a body now, hot the corporation had no interest whatever in their existence. They were placed by immemorial usage confirmed by a decision of the Queen's Bench more than 100 yews ago, under rules made by the corporation of the City. They were nominally shout 1,600 orl, 00 0 in n number, but her c o only 600 were working men, ofand th ese 6 petitioned um est inquiry, not that they objected to inquiry, but they did not thiuk that any good could result from it while the dissentients wished to have the society wound up, and the foods, amounting to about 3,0001., distributed amongst them io proportion to their respective shares. Ile therefore hoped the house would not moment to the motion. Mr. BRUCE said be thought hno. members would be of opinion that this was not a subject which ought to be referred to a select committee of the house. The question was one of a quarrel between the corporation and its em ployes, arid the better remedy would be that they should have recourse to a legal tribunal. Sir J. SHELLEY mid that these persons were unable to have recourse to a legal tribunal. Mr. AYRTON thought that the corporation was respon• Nib's for acts of injustice done to working men. The motion was then withdrawn. Sir S. NORTHCOPE moved an address to her Majesty to give such directions in the matter of the Banda earl K ir wee booty, or prise mousy, as her Majesty may be advised by the law officers of the crown, or by some competent judicial authority. The motion was seconded by Sir M. FARQITHAR. Lord PALMERSTON suggested that as the osiers re lating to this matter would anon he laid before the house, their production shook' he waited for. He stated the lead ing facts of the case and hie own view of its merits, observ big that there was no law or rule upon the subject. The motion was ultimately withdrawn. PETTY OFFENCES. Mr. WHALLEY obtained leave to bring in a bill to amend the law as repels persons charged with petty offences, and to enable such persons and their wives to give evidence. INDEMNITY. Leave was also given to hip.

Alr. Pitcher presided, and moved the adoption of the report, which re commended the payment of a dividend of Is. 5 , 1. per sham, or at the ride of 11. Ts. Id. per cent. for the Milt-year. The motion was unanimously adopted. Mr. Maclaurin said he tw that 3821. 64. 2d. was paid in the form of salaries to the directors and secretary. He wished to know who paid the income tax on that amount° Mr. Adroo, the secretary, said it was paid by the directors and himself. The income tax was deducted from the mot paid by the South Eastern, so that it was really paid twice on the sum allowed for salaries. The government had stated that the tax would not be taken oo the salaries in future; and if it was right that that enures should be followed in future, it ought also , to have been adhered to in the mist. Whilst the salvage men were removing the smouldering cotton and debris of the recent fire in Water street, Liverpool, they discovered that vegetation was active and luxuriant in one of the bales. Several plants were taken from the bale and submitted to competent judges, who decided that they were cotton plants. The heat and mois ture which penetrated every portion of the warehouse must hove caused the seed in the bale to germinate, and after this the growth seems to have been very active' and vigorous. The specimen plants were fully two inches high, sod had Waited this point in the course of seven or ei4ht days. Other Wes will probably coatan natural curiosities of • similar character sod afford those interested in the realties. tion of the cotton plant an opportunity of seeing to what petfection it will attain in so improving • soil and under the forcing system.

The week's import is 231 bales. COTTON GOODS.—MANcidtern, JOLT 14. —The nn. certainty as to the result of impending struggles in Amen still exercises an unfavourable influence on this market, and buyers exhibit an unwillingness to operate either iu yarns or cloths. Advice. are expected this evening, but too late to mum any change in the market. Yarns are very tirro, but there has not been much business effected. There "ppm, to be a considerable accumulation of orders in the market, but merchants are waiting the next American advice' before attempting to execute them. We have Calcutta telegram' to the 16th ult., quoting an improving market there in cloth. The price of B.llb, shirtiogis is quoted at 10 rupee, per piece. From the teuour of these advice% ea expected a better demand for cloth in Manchester to-day, but the hope has been disappointed The only effect of the Indian nein appears to have been the imparting of more firmness to the quota. floss of manufacturers and sellers, and to render them leas anxious to sell. It has not, to soy appreciable extent, lel merchants to improve their offers for any description of India goods, and consequently business is, if possible, more difficult than it was at the close of last week. The only business we have heard of consists io the execution of some small orders that were pressiog, and for these tenets exacted rather fall rates Where there is any pressure to sell the advantage has been the other way. In cloths for the home trade and for the smaller foreign markets there is no change either as to prices or demand. The depresaioo in these goods is quite as great as it was last week. There is no possibility of giving quotations, because there are Do offers on a sufficient scale to test values. Buyers appear to lack confidence enough to enter upon any operations of magnitude, and but few of them are making any inquires for goods. WOOLLEN.—Luna, JULY 14.—The markets this mon. leg were not so well attended as those of Saturday, sad tlis te'transactions were scarcely up to the avenge, fr7 g little was dine in the White market beyond a few samples of autumn fabrics ; plain cloths were not greatly is demand. lu the Coloured Hall, a fair usoitment of milled diagonals, meltons (chiefly of good substance), and tweeds changed hands. Prices ruled firm. MANUFACTURES.—HUDDERSTIILD, Jrtr 14.—Buyer ►ttending have been rather numerous, but their pureharis appear not to have been at all extensive. A moderate de mend, however. stdlexists for middle fancies and low-priced union goods. New patterns in heavy goods for winter are now more frequently to be seen, sod should the weuhe• continue favourable, a good autumn trade in theee is anti. cipated. WOOLS.—iIUDDILBEIFIELD, JULY 14.—A moderate qua. tity has arrived from the German fairs, and a few parcels have found purchdsent.
