The following bills were read • third time and passed:— Rom and Cromarty Roads Bill, Stafford Churchbridge Az. Roads Rill, South Staffordshire Water Bill, and New- castle and Gateshead Water Bill. The Marquis of CLANRICARDE moved the second reading of the Tenure (Ireland) Bill, the objects of which were to provide that neither landlord nor tenant should have • locus standi in any court unless there had been a previous written contract, and to abolish the power of distraint. Lord DLIFFREIN could not assent to the second read ing of this bill, as the government had introduced • mea sure on *ha lame subject in the other house ; besides which, ha doubted whether, notwithstanding the cares with which this bill had been pared, it would at all remedy the evils which it professed to cure. Lord LIFFORD suggested that the bill be read a second time, and then be referred to a select committee, to which Lord Clanricarde assented. The discussion was continued at some length, Lord Wicklow suggesting the withdrawal of the motion, and Lords Drogheda and Clancarty supporting the second reading. Lord BANDON opposed the bill, and contended that the present relations of landlord and tenant were per fectly satisfactory. Lord DUNSANY also objected to the bill as interfering with the natural rights of parties to make their own bar gains, and hinted • suspicion that the comrade= of the government to certain extreme Dish politicians upon this and other subjects had been made with a view to secure political support. Lord WODEHOUSE denied that the tenure question bad been taken up by the government in any seliish but solely from a desire to benefit Ireland. The bill of the government would, he believed, be found calculated to settle satisfactorily this much vexed question, a result which he did not anticipate would fall upon the laming of the bill now submitted to the house. Lord DERBY remarked that the difficulties connected with this question sprung from exaggerated notions of the rights of tenants. He was favou rab le to the principle of compensating tenants for improvements, but at the same ' time the la nd lord should have the right of selecting his I tenants, so that he might let his property to those who would and could make improvements. Lord Derby added that he was inclined to vote for the second reading of this bill, but thought that no inconvenience would be sustained if that stags wens postponed until the government measure came before the house. Earl GRANVILLEsaid that the government were most anxious not to take any course which would appear to east a slight either upon the noble marquis or upon the subject with wilich he sought to deal. All that he would say with referenai to the bill which had been introduced by the fitsvernosent into the other house, was that it was founded upon the principle recommended by the noble earl oppo site, that tenants should be compensated for improve ments which they had effected, and was in no way based Tx. the . notion that they had an indefeasible right to of the land. Even those who had spoken in pos s esso rs of the bill of the noble marquis had ad mitted that it was in some respects imperfect, and it was therefore in hie opinion desirable that the noble lord should withdraw his motion, and thus allow himself an opportunity of removing the imperfections which fuid been pointed out. Earl GREY recommended his noble friend to accede to the suggestions which had been made, and to postpone his motion for the second reading of this bill; but he could not help expressing his regret that the course pursued by the government left but a faint hope that • question which bad been justly described by his noble friend the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland could 'be disposed of in • satis factory manner during the present session. The Marquis of CLANRICARDE acceded to the sugges tions which had been made to him and withdrew his motion, without thing any date at which he would renew his proposal that the bill should be read a second time. DISTRICT POST-OFFICES. Viscount BANGOR asked the Postmaster-General why the clerks in the London district post-offices were for bidden to communieste the places of residence of people in their respective districts to persons applying to them for such information? Lord STANLEY of ALDERLEY said that the clerks would not be able to give the information referred to. All that they could do would be to refer the inquirer to the pages of the Post-office Directory. The Dockyards Extensions Act Amendment Bill was read a third time and passed. The Labouring Classes Dwellings Rill went through committee. Their lordships adjourned at twenty-five minutes put seven o'clock. HOUSE OF OOMMONS.-FRIDAY, MAY 11. The §ritrua took the chair shortly before ' 4 o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The following bills were read a third time, and passed:— Bristol and North Somerset Railway, Dagenham (Thames) Dock, tingsbridge and Dartmouth Roads, Leeds Borough, and the Leven and East of Fife Railway Bills.• UNION RATING IN IRELAND. Mr. GREGORY gave notice that, on the second reading of the bill substituting union for electoral rating in Ireland, he should move that it be read a second time that day Mg months. CASE OF MR. EDMUNDS. Sir J. FERGUSSON asked the Attorney-General why the proceedings which he stated on the 6th March, 1865, were about to be taken in order to recover from Mr. Leonard Edmunds " the balance of the sums alleged to be deficient " in his accounts had not been so taken ; and why the suit which it was intimated to Mr. Edmunds by the Secretary to the Treasury in January last bad been directed to be instituted in the Court of Exchequer had not been proceeded with. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said there could be no doubt that proceedings against Mr. Edmunds would be taken in a very short time. The delay had arisen from it having been originally intended to proceed against him in the Court of Exchequer, but upon further consideration it was decided to bring the case before the Court of Chan cery, the machinery of which was better adapted for such an inquiry. Of course every opportunity would be given to Mr. Edmunds to offer any explanation or defence he might think necessary. THE COMMERCIAL PANIC. Mr. DISRAELI—Sir, I take this opportunity of in quiring of the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether there is any truth in the statement prevalent that her Ma jesty's government have authorised any relaxation of the provision" of the Bank Charter, regulating the issue of notes. Mr. BAZLEY—The right hon. gentleman has antici pated the question I intended to ask. I would, however, wish to inquire further, whether, in the event of the government not having already afforded some relief, they do not think the subject is deserving their immediate attention in the present state of things. (Hear, hear.) An HON. Manßag asked whether, in case the Bank Charter had not been relaxed, the government were pre pared to entertain any application with reference to it. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQI'ER—In the feet place, in reply to the question of the right hon. gentleman opposite, there is no truth in the statement that the government have authorised any step to be taken at variance with the provisions of the act of 1844, In point of fact, they had not arrived at any decision on the subject of the state of things which prevails in the City in immediate connec tion with the calamity which was announced yester. day. I may go farther and say that until about two hours or two hours and a half ago no representation of any lind had reached me from the City—no formal representa tion, nothing that could be called a representation— reached me on the subject of that state of things. But for the last two hours and a-half my time has been occupied in receiving inform►tion and statements, and, I may add, im portant requests from very influential persons connected with the City. I have seen many of the moat important and respected members of the body of London bankers, and I have not yet had time to see—but I expect to see as moon as my engagements in the house will allow me to leave my place —a deputation regularly constituted from the joint-stock banks of London to the same effect. THE BALLOT. In reply to Mr. More, Mr. R. RF:RKELEY said he intended to bring forward the question of the ballot after Whitatuatide, but he would not allow his motion to interfere in any way with the government Reform Bill Among the subjects discussed on going into committee of supply were the shortcomings of the Post-office in the county of Fife, instituted by Sir R. ANsrecrelea, and the expediency of increasing the number of money-order savings banks, annuity and insurance offices throughout the king dom, which was recommended by Lord E. CECIL in a speech full of interesting details on the subject. A lengthy debate on the condition of the Irish judicial bench was originated by Mr. BRYAN, who asserted that both Lord Chief Justice Lefroy and Lord Justice Black borne were utterly incapable of discharging judicial func tions, (slating various facts in support of it, and reading various: extracts from Irish newspapers to show the unan imity 9f Irish public opinion on the subject. Mr. C. FORIMCCE, in replying to an appeal for the opinion of the government, admitted that if a line were to be drawn beyond which judges should not be allowed to remain on the bench, it would fall below 90 years. If facts should be brought under the notice of the government proving a miscarriage of justice from the advanced years of any of the judges, their only constitutional course would be to move both houses to address the Crown to remove them. From that responsibility the government would not shrink ; but until such facts were laid before them it was their duty to abstain from pronouncing any such general opinion as was asked for. Sir H. CAIRNS pointed out the great injury dons to the administration of justice by irregular conversations of this kind founded on mere anonymous newspaper paragraphs. On the general question he admitted that it might be desirable to lay down a limit, say 75 years, beyond which a judge should not be allowed to remain on the bench, and he mentioned various cases to show that there was no falling off in the mental powers of the two judges- After some remarks from Mr. MAGUIRE, who main tained the entire unfitness of Lord Chief Justice Lefroy, Sir G. GREY deprecated irregular criticisms of this character, and Mr. WHITESIDE made an elaborate defence of Chief Justice Lefroy, challenging his detractors to take the constitutional course of moving Parliament for his dis missaL The debate grew hotter when Sir R. Peel—who rose to defend Lord Justice Blackburne—charged Mr. M • with retailing gossip " which he knew to be unfounded." He was called to order by the Speaker, and it was only under very severe pressure that be consented to withdraw the expression. But for Sir G. Bowyer, who told some stories of octogenarian judges, the remainder would have been a mere wrangle between the Irish lawyers, the Solicitor-General for Ireland warmly attacking Mr. White side, and Mr. George and Mr. S. B. Miller replied. The recent appointment of a committee on the Hythe musketry system, with General Hay as a member, was severely criticised by Sir C. Russell, Colonel L. Lindsay, and Major Dickson, but defended by the Marquis of Harlington, who explained that the duty of the com mittee was simply to collate and report to the War-office the opinions contained in the reports of the various mus ketry instructors. General Hay was not, therefore, mem ber of a body appointed to sit in judgment upon the aye. tem of which he was the originator ; and the committee, whose duties would be altogether different from those of a royal commission, would have been a very imperfect one had he been omitted from it. The house having gone into committee of supply, pro. oeeded with the consideration of the civil service estimates On the vote of 30,156/. to complete the sum of 41,1551. to defray the expenses for nonconforming, seceding, and pro testant dissenting ministers in Ireland, popularly known as the " Regium DROLLER," Mr. HADFIELD moved to reduce the amount to 3661., that being the sum paid since 1804, for the widows and orphan,' of ministers of synod of Ulster. The ptoposal underwent the usual discussion, in which the old familiar arguments for and against the grant were once more used up; and upon a division Mr. Hadfield was defeated by 130 to 24. The vote was there upon 'geed to, as were also the remainder of the items in Clan 6, "superannuation, and retired allowances and gra tuities for charitable and other purposes," and those in Class 7, for " miscellaneous, special, and temporary ob jects." THE COMMERCIAL CRISIS. Mr. BAZLEY—I wish to ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he has consented to recommend any peculiar facilities to be extended to the Bank of England under the present monetary panic, and what may be the nature of the indulgence he has arranged to meet the wants of the mercantile public. (Hear, hear.) The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER—I stated at the commencement of the evening that representations had been made to me from quarters of great influence and credit with regard to the extraordinary state of alarm and distress prevailing in the City to-day. I stated that those representations had conic to me from gentlemen represent ing the private banks of London in particular, and that I had reason to expect that I should receive similar representations from the joint stock banks. Shortly afterwards I did receive a deputation of gentlemen con nected with the joint stock banks, and the representations that I received from them were more earned and urgent than I anticipated. I stated also at the time I had the honour of addressing the house, that the effects of the day's proceedings in the City had not become known to us through the Bank of England. Since that time they have become known, and we find that the Bank, with a just desire to maintain the commerce of the country, and to avert disaster, has extended its laws and discounts to-day to a sum somewhat exceeding [four millions, and the effect of that large accommodation was to reduce the reserve of the Bank bya very large sum, indeed not very short of three millions of money. Under these circum stances her Majesty's government have felt that the actual reserves of the Bank as far as is known, because the pre cise state of the reserves throughout the country is not known, yet the London reserve is known, and the estimate is sufficiently accurate for all practical purposes—under these circumstances we find that the Bank reserve being reduced in a day from about six millions to a sum not exceeding three millions, that is a state of things, com bined with the uneasiness of the mind of the public in regard to monetary matters, which calls for the interven tion of the government. (Hear, hear.) I had the oppor tunity this evening, with my colleagues, of considering the state of the facts, and we have determined to address a letter to the Governor and Deputy-Governor of the Bank of England, substantially corresponding with the letters to those officers in 1847 and 1857 ; that is to say, that if the , Bank, proceeding on its usuel pnident rules of administration, should find occasion, in order to meet the wants of legiti mate commerce, to grant such advances and discounts as to require an issue of notes from the issue department beyond the limits allowed by law, we recommend that they should not hesitate to make that issue ; and we undertake, in the event of the arrival of the contingency, to make immediate application to parliament to sanction that proceeding. (Cheers.) It is unnecessary now to enter into points of detail, but that is the substance of the letter which will be in the hands of the Governor and Deputy-Governor of the Bank of England to-morrow morning, and which we earnestly hope will have the effect of allaying the uneasiness that prevails, and the more so that we do not believe that the sen timent of uneasiness has reference to anything unsound in the general business of the country— (hear, hear)—but refers to matters of a definite and specific character. In that respect we are able to draw a favourable distinction between the present crisis and those of former times. One of the points of the present crisis is the astonishing rapidity with which it has come upon us, and which has reduced the opportunity of deliberation given to the government within very narrow limits indeed. Of course we have endeavoured to act according to the best of our power ; and we trust and believe that the course we have pursued will meet with the approba tion of parliament. (Cheers.) FISHERY, PIERS AND HARBOURS (IRELAND) BILL This bill pasted through committee. SUPPLY. The report of supply was brought up and agreed to. LUNACY ACTS (SCOTLAND) AMENDMENT BILL. This bill passed through committee. LIFE INSURANCE (IRELAND) BILL. This bill was read a second time. THE DRAINAGE MAINTENANCE (IRELAND) BILL This bill was read a third time and pawed. The Solicitor to the Treasury Bill was read a second time. THE EXPREgg, SATURDAY NOTINGHAM ELECTION. The sheriff made an official announcement of the poll yesterday morning in front of the Exchange. The numbers were—Osborne, 2,518 ; Amberley, 2,491 i Jenkin- , son, 2,411 ; Cossham, 2,307 •, Faulkner, 3. Lady Amber's) , and other ladiee were on the hustings, and party colours , were again displayed. As the sheriff proclaimed the state of the poD there was a good deal of cheering and uproar. The numbers given to Mr. Dorsal Osborne were received with great applause, and MIMI the hen. gentleman came. forward to address the thousands who had assembled, he was received with tremendous cheering and some groans. Mr. OSBORNE, in the course of his address, saiethe working men had a right to the franchise, and were as well to be trusted as the middle classes. (Cheers.) The best reform bill, however, was the bed " passable" hill, and be should support the present bill in parliament—(clieen)— and also the bill for the redistribution of seats. Lord AsBERLEY was received with cheers and hisses. He rejoiced so far in the result of the election, but he con fessed that he was sorry that they had not joined with him a gentleman who would have been a zealous and earnest supporter of the liberal cause. (Cheers and groans.) He acknowledged the conservatives had obtained • partial victory, yet it was a victory of a very doubt ful character. They had strained every nerve in this election, and what had been the result of their exertions ? They had succeeded in obtaining the return of a liberal. He was very sorry he could not hear all the speech just made by Mr. Osborne, but one thing be heard was, that he was an independent liberal. That was his (Lord Amberley's) own position. (Cheers.) He was also an independent liberal, and although they had not stood together in this contest, he believed they would both sup port liberal measures in parliament, and he hoped also they should be able to work together in everything that concerned the interests of Nottingham and the country at large. Sir G. JmlarNsoN said he did not like to leave Notting ham without stating that he was proud of the manner in which the election fight had been conducted by the inde pendent men of the borough. (Loud cheers.) Mr. HANDEL COBHAM( thought that the 2,307 votes which he had received had fully justified him in coming forward forNottingiuun. The fact that not one man had been paid was an answer to the calumny that he came there to disturb the liberal party, and although defeated he was not disgraced. (Cheers.) He wished to pour oil on the troubled waters, and hoped that all differences would be settled. If be felt any regret at the issue of the contest, it was not because he was not their member, but it was that, in his prson, liberalism had been, to some extent, defeated. (Cheers.) Mr. FAULKNER also spoke amidst ironical cheers, and a vote of thanks to the sheriff concluded the proceedings. GALWAY ELECTION COMMITTEE. The Chairman announced yesterday that the committee had come to the following resolutions : That Mr. Michael Morris and Sir Rowland Blenner haseett, Bart., were duly elected to serve as burgesses for the town or borough of Galway. That the petitions presented by John Orrell Lever, Esq., and Nicholas Stubber, Esq., as far as relate, to Michael Morris, Esq., were frivolous and vexatious. That it was proved to the committee that a number of electors received bribes for having voted for Sir Rowland Blennerhassett at the last election for the town or borough of Galway. That it was not proved to the committee that such bribery was committed with the knowledge or consent of Sir Rowland Blennerliaseett or his agents. That the committee have reason to believe that corrupt practices extensively prevailed at the last election for the town or borough of Galway. The announcement was received with loud cheers. The proceedings then terminated. Subs! snit affititarp. ADMIRALTY, MAY 11.—The Duke of Somerset held a levee yesterday afternoon, at the Admiralty. There were present—Vice-Admirals W. Ramsay, Sir E.

SHOCKING DEATH IN A CASUAL WARD. —Tester day afternoon Mr. Payne, City coroner, held an inquiry at I the Magpie tavern, New-street, touching the death, in the casual ward of the East London Union, of John Smith, aged 19 years. The deceased presented himself at the casual ward of the East London Union, in New-street, at 8 o'clock last Wednesday evening, and stated that he was a labourer, and had come from the country, and had slept in Woolwich the previous night. He was quite destitute and poorly clad. He was admitted and received six ounces of bread, and was ordered to remain in the waiting room (a whitewashed underground apartment) until his turn came for • bath. After the lapse of an hour and a half he was bathed. He ilea ran up two flights of stairs in his skirt to the Bleeping ward, where he in a few minutes complained to another casual of illness. The porter, Kellaway, came up and put a mustard plaster on his stomach, and told the paupers to send for him if the deceased got ill again. No wards man was in the ward, he being engaged in bathing other paupers, a process not over on that night until a quarter to twelve o'clock. About a quarter to twelve o'clock the deceased was again taken ill. A pauper named Coombs undertook to cure him with cold water applied to his stomach with a rug, and the unfortunate man fell on the floor and died at once. Dr. Fowler, who had been ap prised before by Kellaway that a casual was ill, was then sent for, and he came. Dr. Fowler deposed that the de ceased was far advanced in consumption, and death was caused by the giving way of an abscess in the lungs, con sequent upon the exertion of running up two flights of stairs after the bath. Witness had ordered Kellaway to give him medicine and a planter. It appeared that de ceased had got no gruel or other warm drink on the night in question. Had he lived till morning he would have received, besides doz. of bread, • pint and a half of gruel, made in the proportion of 14oz. of meal to a gallon of water. The number of males who slept in the casual ward on Wednesday night was 47. The jury returned a verdict " That deceased died from the rupture of an abscess in the lungs from natural causes." ALLEGED FATAL ILL-TREATMENT IN CLERKP.N WELL WORKHOUSE. —A charge of gross and fatal ill-treat ment of a sick pauper in this workhouse has been made against a pauper wardsman., The facts may be shortly stated. A few weeks since a coroner's inquest was held upon a pauper inmate named Hayes, who died from ulce rated sores, alleged to have been received from a fall out of bed, and a verdict to that effect was returned. After the inquest a pauper inmate wrote to the Poor-law Board, stating that the evidence given before the coroner was not true, for the writer alleged the man's wounds were in dictee' by a pauper wardsman. The letter was sent to the guardians, who appointed a private committee to inquire into the matter. The inquiry was made by • fermi' taking of evidence, and at the last meeting of the board of guardians the report was brought forward (but not read), with a recommendation of the com mittee that the Poor-law Board should be informed that the guardians had inquired into the matter and were of opinion that the charge was untrue. The guardians who spoke upon the question were most careful not to let a word slip as to the charge or its import, and they generally referred to the questions in the most ambiguous terms. One or two of the guardians, who were evidently not in all the secrets, wanted to know something about the evi dence taken, and it was proposed that instead of reading the " evidence " taken by the officials at the private inquiry, it should be handed about, so that the reporters should not know what had taken place. The committee's recommendation was adopted. THE MYSTERIOUS FOIS•)NING CASE NEAR NEW CARTLF..—The adjourned inquest touching the death of John I3ushby, aged 52, who with his two brothers George l and William are suspected to have been poisoned, was held on Thursday, before 1.. M. Cockcroft, Esq. coroner, at the Black Bird Inn, Ponteland, near Ne wcastle. It resulted in a further adjournment for • fortnight. The evidence adduced showed clearly the presence of arsenic in the remains of the deceased. PRECAUTIONS AGAINST HINDERPEST. —The most rigid precautions are being taken by the authorities to guard against the extension of the cattle plague to this country. A body of forty constables, under the direction of Inspector Devur, have been told off for duty at the North-wall-quay where a station is about being built for their accommodation. The officers exercise a close super ' vision over vessels arriving in port, and one of them sails in every vessel carrying cattle, whose duty it is to see that the drovers have used the prescribed means for disinfect ing their clothes. The pohce both here and throughout the country are in constant communication with Professor Ferguson, Director-General of the Veterinary Department of tke Privy Council.—Dublin Evening Mat 7.

It condemned people to affix certain marks to their goods whether they wished it or not, and its general effect would be to interfene very much with the course of free trade on the part of small traders and growers. With the view of assimilating legislation with regard to hops to that which related to other commodities, and bringing this bill into harmony with the Merchandise Marks Act, 1862, he should propose the omission of the second and third clauses. The hon. gentleman concluded by moving to omit clause 2. Mr. HUDDLINPON said that this bill involved no new principle. At present the owner, planter, or grower of hops was bound to mark upon the pocket of hops the name of the place, parish, and county in which they were grown, and all that he was required to do by this bill was to add the year and the weight. The real objection to the measure came from Sussex, where the growers produeed a very inferior character of hop. Mr. B. HOPE opposed the bill. Mr. GREENE, as a brewer, supported the bilL Mr. Alderman LUSK supported the amendment. Mr. LOCKE thought it was absolutely necessary, if fraud was to be prevented, that in the first instance hops should be marked. The house divided : For the clause Against it The bill was then ordered to be read a third time. The Burials in Burghs (Scotland) Bill was read a third time and passed, The house then adjourned at half-past 1 o'clock. CRYSTAL PALACE : - ONE SHILLING DAY.

Rain fell heavily during the early part of the morning, and a wet day appeared inevitable, but before noon it cleared up, and the course was mbch benefited by the wet. The raring does not call for any comment, but it will be seen thebookmakershad much the hest of the speculation, as the favourites were defeated in almost every instance. During the afternoon there was some 'spirited Derby betting, the principal feature of which was the support awarded to Abergeldle, who was backed to win some thousands at 1000 to 30 and 8 to I for a place. The two favourites, although not backed for any amount, were firm, and a shade ever their quoted prices would have lace freely accepted. Blue lUband VAS are Stiltiece of great hostility, for after 15 to I had been offered against him three points more failed to bring a friend to the rescue. Monarch of the Glen was in great force at 20 to 1, and 33 to I was taken several times about the Bribery colt, but Vespaaion was de cidedly out of odour, t/ to 1 being offered "to any amount."
