TIN Lean exancou.oz took him wat ow the woolsack at 5 o'clock. ITALY. The Marquis of NORMANBY wished to put a question le her Mejesty's government with referent, to the prospects of Central Italy, which he had refrained from pressing the other night. The Emperor of the Free* had now returned from lull', and in a speech delivered by hies two or three days ago, he stated that all the sovereigns of Italy had men the necessity of salutary reform. H. (the Margate of Nor , marshy) was glad to hear each a statement, and wished to fumy whether ha Majesty's government had noshed any thierenstiest with regard to say meeption to the restoration of the sevwerkentiss of Central Italy. He was the more anxi ots Is obtain this information ' because the SardinianSardiniancomthis• skarn appointed during the war still remained, and there wee reason to believe that active Intrigues were going on in Terse all. 0= th e engagements entered into in the InetyslV' Earl GRANVILLE mid, from the shortness of the maim which theacilee ettnis had gime. it was ispessible for either ids Noble Mond (Lord Wodekome) or himself to give any deltas" explamdita on the subject. POSTAL COMMUNICATION WITH AUSTEA.LI.A. The Marquis of CLANRICARDE aelted what deceit:a had bees announced or communicatien made he the varl one pulse who seat lenders to the Admiralty on the let of July, in asbordonee with the odvartised invitatko to that math. ler the wells eo hurrahs WO Puente ta them ship ; it roe the been &se, whether her Majesty's germane had theadhath the litanies of erOah the diarebt sad owners centemplated in the advertisement. Ho .aid that at seem there wee but we mode of postal communi cation with Australia, and that was the overland route to India es far as Ceylen, and then to Melbourne. but that was a very inconvenient route foe Sidney and New South Wales. The legislature of New South Wales had voted 60,0001, towards the establiehment of this route, and it wee salculeted that the amount received for post age would be 44,0001. a year, go that the home gamesmen valid hot have a vast deal to make sp. Ho wee Wormed that no notice had been taken of the tethers, at which he thought the public here, the colonists, and the parties who tendered, bad great right to complain. He was Wormed that though there wee another service, there was no contract, the Peninsular end Oriental doing the week without any comma at all, bat he would move for the c thy of any contract legally perfected and in force at this moment for the moveyance of mails in steamships by any route. The Dube of SOMERSET said the plan which had beea hitherto adopted with regard to theme contracts was this : they were ant to the Admiralty to arrange art to the rate of spied, the pieces for stopping, and other details. They then i-seed the advertisement for tenders, end 'Menthe tender.. came in they were sent to the Trager, for hadecision. The leaders in question had been received by the Admiralty, and sent to the Treasury, under whose oonsideretion they anti were, but the whole question of steam-packet contracts had ham referred to a select committee of the Hones of Commons. There was a monthly hoe by way of Sues which came into operation is February. Tbst was oleo to be by contract, but although the enmmunicatioa we. begun, and the packets had been running for sore. time, he believed the fact was that the am- Dalt had not beet *sod. Some difficulty arms as to the places when the pickets were to call at, as to whether they were to call at the Murillo' and other points, and as there wee no oietract he could not lay one on the table et the heath As the whole subject had been referred to a select eimmaPtee, it was but nameable that the govern ment should wait to see what the committee recommended.

Betide of supply on Monday week, to we the ;Clewing re solution That it would be oconsietent neither with the honour nor the dignity of this country, which throughout tee late negotiations hie preserved a strict and impartial neu trality between the contending parties, and which has used its earliest enlessours to prevent an outbreak of hostilities, to take part in ►ny contoured' for settling the details of a peace, the preliminaries of which hays been arranged between the Emperors of France aed Austria." (Ileac, hear.) the trustees of the National Portrait Gallery to the Lords of the Treasury, dated 16th April, 1869:—" Her Majesty's severeatent have offered to the tellsotiott, sad the truster 'kb Reeks, accepted the great picitere of the Rouse of Cemmous at the opening of the Seat reformed parliament in Jimmy, 1833, as painted by Sir George Hayter, and as reeently naiad to the nation by • vote of the Rouse of Commons." The noble lord said that he had some time ago received two circulars setting forth the matte of the picture, stating that the late Chau/Sot of the Exchequer had pro. mind to trove for a grentof five thousand pounds, or guineas, for it, and solidi' s( his (the noble lord'a) support tor each grant. Whatever might be the merit of the picture, he did net think it • fit eubjcct our which to aped the money of the frinhbf7: and feeling strongly, moreover, the indecorum amok a twat:aiding at caimans members In support of such • vale, be lad kept himself constantly on the watch for its being brought before the house, which he understood would now be done in the estimate class 7. If the desoesdante of Lord Grey's colleagues chose to present the picture to the maim the trustees of the portrait gallery would no doubt receive it with thanks; but he protested against the public mew being devoted to such a purpose at a time when all sky could raise was reqateed for the national di (Heat, hear.) r a LAING said the vote would not be for 5,0001.. but for 2,0001. Finding the item in the estimates of his predecemiors belted set thought dt to strike it out; and he suggested that whim the vote was !mealy asked for would be the proper time to Crews its propriety. Mr. DISRAELI mid the purchase of the picture bed been resommeeded to him by • mametel signed by more than two-thirds of the old house. Ile had submitted the question to • canteittee amongst whom were one or two pause= who had held the highest position under the mown. The recommendation of that committee ma that , as the picture was one of great historical interest It should be purchased for the nation, and he could not bet think that tba house would approve of what had been done. (Hear.) Lord ELCRO said the question had been :stored to the noble lord the Secretory for Foreign ACM*, the boo. mem ber for Brighton, sad himself. They were of opinion that since the passing of the Reform Act marked an important as in our history it would be desirable to ruche's the pic tare, end that 2,0001. would be • reasonable sum to give for it. FOREIGN AFFAIRS. We. B. COCHRANE, who had given notice to ask for idea of despatches 'blob bad peered between Lord J. Rus• sell and Lord Cowley and Sir J. lindwni since tbe =flounce meat of the armirtite between France and Austria—raid that afterthe discussion of last night, sad after the notice givsn by Lord Etcho for the lit of August, be thought that he should exercise • wise discretion in re- freeing from putting his mesetioa. But there was one point connected with our foreign Madam on which so touch mirappreheneion existed abroad that it ought to be set right at once. lie found io the Journal des Dikes a most violent stuck on this country. He wouid only trouble the house with mot passage :—•' England, who inquires about a vessel, more or lees, armed at Brest, and who votes 800 millions for her navy. England who counsels so loudly the continent to disarm, is she going to set the example and withdraw from her order of the day this programme of mexaos or of ism, the tatal effect of which we have been obliged to notioe, keeping in view the alliance that we should wish to preserve? When a cloud highly charged with electricity passes over our heeds, why rielt the elicit ing of the flash from it ? Who knows where it might fell !" Yet exaggeration preeiled in this country, as well as on the continent, with reference to the state of our sthearnests. In 1793 we had 83 ships of the line fa commission, 99 frigates, making, with sloops sad corvette', a grand total of 631. In 1794, ws had a total of 824; in 1798, of 834, and a still Liner awake in later years. At resent, if he understood the Dada lord, they had only 44 snipe of the line and 300 merle In the whole navy. What, th-n, was the meaning of the eatery about their vet armament., when theylhad Indy what wee ameatial te preserve the natural position of the country la a Use of pesos. (Hear.) As the noble lord pro mised to make a elatemeat to the hones next Thursday, be would ant mom his question. Lord C. PAGET rid they expected to ban 60 sail of the line by the Slid at the finthcial veer. HARBOURS OF RRFIIGF. Mr. PEASE — ;;;;ltoasic lb. Fret Lord of the Treasury whether it was the intention of the gement:mot to propose to the hones during the present wake say meager* with - a view to the enciouragernent of the [mastics of harbours of refuge oa the °oasts of the kingdom, in conformity with the report of the royal comorieflon of last year upon the subject. In no pert of the country was a harbour .f refuge more necessary than the west of Durham. Lord PALMERSTON said that every one must be aware of the great importance of harbours of refuge on the coast, end especially on that part of the west to which hie hon. Mead adverted. The report of the commissioners concurred in the same view, 100 th-y calculated the coat of forming harbours et 4,000,6001. Tboee who were at all acquainted with the di!? worm between estimate and cost with regard to work., of that kind must know that they would not be com pleted for the estimate, and that they would coat much more. The government had no intention of making any proemial of the kind in the present sermon. Sir F. SMITH said the coat of making the harbours would be spread over ten years, and the met pay annum would be only 200,0001. No tees than 800 lives were atinually loet on the coast. The @etiolates would not be exceeded, and they were, in tact, too high. PRICE OF GUANO. Me. GREGORY wished to ask the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if any communications had lately been re ceived from the Peruvian government on the subject of the reduction of the price of guano. The price of guano had been reduced 11. per ton, and he believed that something might be done towards a further reduction if proper mew gonfalons were made to the Peruvian President. The maim wag one of much importance to the small farmers of belied. Lord J. RUSSELL said them were no very Iwo commuala cations on the subject which he could lay before the house. The subject was of great importance, and he regretted the course adopted by the Peruvian government to keep up the price. There was a very large stock of guano hs hand, of the value of 3,000,0001., bat sa there were now • great many artificial manures is was not likely that • very high peke would be given for guano. FLOGGING IN THE NAVY. Mr. W. WILLIAMS wished to ask the Secretary to the Admiralty whether he would lay on the table of the house a return of the name of the captain of her ?dajesty's chip Primes' Royal, who ordered 2,141 lashes to be inflicted on ifty-three of the crew of that ship, who were ;logged in the year 1867, as stated in return presented to that home. He hed received a letter from • gallant admiral, expressing great concern at its being supposed that Captain Baily, who was now the commander of the Princes. Royal, was the person who Inflicted those puntatimeate. Captain Bally was not the mom who inflicted them. If the authors of these combh meats did right in inflicting them, nobody would blame them; if they did wrong, the public ought to know the parties who were guilty. The question was net answered, and the motion for the adjoarnmeat was armed to. SECRET DIPLOMACY. On the motion for going into committee of supply, Mr. GRIFFITH said he thought the time was corns when diplomacy should not have the character of secrecy. Their diplomacy wee now go well intentioned that it to longer re quired to be escret. At the same time it world be • protec tas to the country if the public knew what was going on. Public opinion now ruled the country and Umpired their diplomacy. He believed that if the people of the country had been aware, at the time, of the offer of the weaken of Lombardy to Sardinia which Austria had made in 1849, that offer would have been rati fied, end the blood which had since been died In bringing about the same result would hare been spared. He also thought that moat diplomacy had dons great Weak., to Lord Malmesbury. The particular (portion which he wished to put to the noble lord was, whether he had reason to believe that there was • provision or andendanding ht the treaty ct Vlllefrance that the late dystathe of Tuscany, Modena, sad Patna were to be restored to those posesselone, if near eery, by military force; sad, if so, whether her Xeleety's government were prepared to take part in any congress, or other diplomatic neeotiation, having that object? Lord J. RUSSELL said he underetood from the govern meat of the Emperor of the French that them was no prom ci'M or understanding that those dynasties went* be restored by mili.ary force, and be further understood that it was not the intention of the Renewer of the French to employ force for the puipose of teetering them. THE NATIONAL GALLERY. Mr. CONING HAM, In moving that it was the ordain of this house that the system of management which sow existed at the National Gallery was highly uniatiefeetory, sad was detrimental to the public service, said the Mermaid expeadi tare in all departments of the government was matter of ge. oral observation. The people did cot feel that tbey got vela* for their money, and they were disoonteated. The ex penditure was so great and the mystery, as • whole, was so COlOl9ll, that ao member could deal with It in its entirety. But withregard to theexpenditumon the National Gallery hello* to be able to chow that in that department • bad eystem had too long prevailed, and that it ought to be abolished. It ap peared by the return which he held in his hand, that during the last twelve years there had been as expenditure of 90,0001. for augmenting our national collectioa of pictures, and he wield boldly assert sad appeal to those who had • knowledge of pictures, whether the National Gallery as it now Wood, tempered with what It was before It came Nader Its present wiministratka, had sot positively tistsrlarstsl. The whoa sot being @scowled fell to the_ Crew& EDUCATION IN IRELAND. Mr. HENNESSY roes to cell the Mistake et ths betas to **failure of mixed educaticia inkstand. He mid the vote to be taken for education ibis year was 1,300,0001.; at that 600,0001. was for England and about 250,0001. for Ireland. The two votes., however, ware given on principles totally different and distinct. That for England was on whet wee called the deacininational or s eparate miters; hut that for Ireland wall given to support what was called Diked education; and his object was to cell the attention of the how, to the Tailor. of the latter system. In Ireland it he eluded two braaalwa, the academical educates ia the Qammie TROOPS FOR INDIA. Sir D. L. EVANS asked th t becretary of State for lathe whiber it was tree that 6,000 men of the Indian depots were ordered to be anbarksd for India ' • and if so, went propor tions of Chia form was totssulod to be of her Majesty's re gular aid local foram?

Mr. WIBB ;il;lll3f37careteryci litTitTfcr Foreign Affairs whether ►s proposed to sanction the altered regu lations ordered by the Earl of Malowebttry for the examine. tion of candidates foe the diplomatic service ; or whether he con•emplatd the no-satabliehniest of the regulations which WON settled by the Berl of Clarendon in 1856, sod were approved of by the civil service commimiuners as calculated to secure the aid of well•qualifld persona for the public service? . . . eve • toe. Lord J. RUSSELL raid the regulations ordered by Lord Itilinsibury did not retinae any motion from him ; bat la the ordinary mores they would come Into op...radon without any triterfereacei on his part. He (Lord John) had tusked into the regulations of Lord Cluendon, sad he oonfamed be did not see that there was say good tows for making the alterations thn , had eines been made. There were, however, stoma of the obeervatlons of Lard Malineebury that were worthy of attention ; but he (Lord J. Russell) would ootoider the whole subject with • view to see whether the regulations of Lord Clarendon should be restored. MR. CRURCHWARIES PROMOTION. Mr. WISE salted the Secretary to the Admiralty whether ft was tree that Mr. Chnrchward, junior, • second doe clerk in Deptford dockyard, bad been recently appointed Ware receiver of Chatham dockyard; what were the seniors which led to so peat • promotion; and what ware the *ae ries of the two offices alluded to? Lord C PAGET said itee true that Mr. Chisettward, a mooed cisme clerk at Drptford, had bees appointed to the store receivership at Chatham. The salary of his bream clScn IA 2241 per annum ; cud that of his present one wee 4501. With regard to what Mr. Cburchward's servicea had been to lead to so crest a promotion ha. (Lord C. Paget) thought he bat batter leave that question to be answered by the right hon. gentleman the lets first Lord of the Admi ralty. (Hear, hear.) THE AFFAIRS OF ITALY. Mr. HORSMAN linked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether the Preach or Austrian governments bad t communicated to the British Cabinet the conditions of the perm °occluded at Villafraeos, end the mode in which it was I proposed to give of .st to them ; and whether the oe-opera tket of England and the other neutral powers had been in sited for that purpose? Lord J. RUSSELL said that the French government bad mentuusicated to the government of her Majesty the preli minaries of the peace that hat berm proposed. They were not, however, in aet state to be laid before tbe house. With respect to the communications which bad passed, he thought it would be better that he should some day sent week—on Thursday, U possible, but on Friday at the latest—state to the house what bad been the oommtutications which her Majesty's government had received, and io what way they now stood with :aspect to the government of Prance in rite tics to the psec. It soul& tnerefors, not be necessary to enter into the subject at all on the present wouvinn. THE DANUBIAN PRINCIPALITIES. Lent H. VANE salted the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs velum the papers relating to the settlement of the government and wesstitutinn of the Danubian Principalities would be laid mem the table of the house? Lord J. RUSSELL did not think that say pipers bad bean asked for with regard to the settlement of the govern ment tithe Danubkm Prineipalities. le fact the settlement MA tot yet been made. There had been communications with the governmeet of the Sublime Porte, and an answer Wenbe esturned; but there bad not yet be eni any final set tlement mate en this ealsjose.

(Hear, beer.) SIR 0. HAYTER'S PICTURE OF THE ROUSE OP COMMONS. Os the motion that the house at Its tieing do edjourn till Iffesday neat, Lord HOTHAII caked the Chancellor of the Exchequer • in en agiretint if the Inieviai piregrapti in the ripen el (Stamped ld. Additional.) [TWOPENCE. colleges, end the edstatisa he the poor in the national schools. The lastee's milieus were founded in 1845 and opened in 1849, so they had been in operation 10 years, and if they took the amount which hod been voted for them, and compared it loth the number of gentlemen who had taken their degree', It would appear that each graduate has coat the country 1,5001. This wee no fault of the machinery provided for the ma of toe colleges, professor", and officers wee edearable, and the system was the best possible. The number of officers wee 260, whereas the average en trant* of etudenis wee only 134 each yes,. There were a number of scholarships, about 65, at the derposal of the stu dents, but the number of candidates seldom end SOMetilan did not equal, the number of echo'arshiu to be given. In the Queen's College, Cork, there was one eta dentshlp In the faculty of kw. Two years there was no candidate, and in the other years only one. The Doen of the 2'scnlly had recommended Its total abolition on the ground that there were no student'. The principal faculty, however, was that of iota. In the College at Galway there were in 1860-51 26 ma dams to 24 scholarthips ; In 18,51.52, 15 student+ to 10 scholarships; and every year since there were more scholar ship than readouts. In considering the encores of the sys tem, the scholars ought to be felt out of the calculation, as they had no index:aunt to attend. The success of the Queen's University was not greater than that of the col leges. In 1853 only four gentlemen went up for Muster is Aria examination. Each got a gold medal and a money ex hibition. In the live years of the colleges the num ber of professors and officers was 50 per cent. more than that of student.. and the number of scholar ships also greater. Bat it wee not merely with regard to numbers that the colleges were a failure; the insti tution of licensed boarding houses and the appcntment of residence wee an important featnnerd the original Diop , yet that feature alto had entirely failed. The sys tem of education under the national hoard wee also a failare, but in a different way. In the county of Cork slue them were 65,000 children attending thus enhoelr, but with the exception of 761, all were of one religion. The system most soon fall from the opposition in the country it not previously overthrown by a vote of the house. The catholic church in Ireland and many of the petteetant bishops were in favour of a system such as wee approved of by luny wares main for England, that there should be a free admixture of religious teechieg. Mr. WHITESIDE wishd to make tome remarks with reimenco to the church to which he belonged arid the univer sity which he had the honour to represent. lie found an Increase of 26,4261. this year in the vole for education in Teethed. Although the honourable gen tleman told trim it wee • failure, he felt boned to say that the Queen's College in Belfast was not a failure. He begged to tell the right hos gentleman the Secretary for Ireland, that If he traded to the returns in blue hooks for information es to education in Ireland, he would fall into • great mistake. When Lord Derby introduced the national school system, hie intention was that • certain amount of moral and religions teething should to included in It. Originally them were three books in the list of those to housed In schools—Dr. Whetely's Evidence of Christianity, • hymn book, and • collection of Scripture lesson". These were the only books of • religious character allowed to be abed, and every ens of them hid knee been struck out of the lat. At reseed a board was in exietenat which, although com posed of highly respectable individuals, had no greet weight with any class of the public in Ireland. It append that out of 6,000 echools, there wire bet 300 vested in the board. Upwards of 2,000 were under the direct government of the ROM= catholic clergy. A question had arisen as to what should be done with the preebyterian schools. There wore not ended in the board. aud they read the Scripter. s se and when they pleased. With regard to the church of Eogiand end the Weide - yens he would say • word or two. The church of Englend, of cetera, had the method of the parish echoole, where from time immemorial each dry duly commenced witu paw. The Weeleyans wens in a worre porition, eo far se reseleing any aid went. It was a fundamental principle Rid dews by John Wesley that the reading of the &rte. tum &sal to • feature of the reading of the schools. Renee the mixed scheme cut out the Wesleyan, and they lose dos boat of this fund, which they themselves had contd. Wei to as taxpeyers. Now, an attempt had been made Is bring the churches into thi s system. But how could it be so? When the board visited • parish school they would see there written up, " Fear God, honour the king," ' Thou shalt not steal," "Christ is our only Saviour." AR these must be token down. and in the place of it would be set up a paper "bowing the differeoce between vertebrate and invertebrate tesimale. (Laughter.) He was quite rum that no rystem which could be devised of secular teaching would receive the issecties of the clergy of the established church. It was the belief of the clergy that it wa, their duty not to encourage • Doerr of teaching which did not competes a knowledge of the holy Scriptures. Mr. C. BUXTON thought Shot the time had come when it was very &Kimble for gentlemen to courtier this subject. But ins certainly thought that upon the whole the national board bad extended great benefits to the people of Ireland. Mr. LONOFIELD thought that nothing had been brought forward which conclusively proved that the national system bad been a feilore. Mr. ADDRRLEY thought it would be a great advantage if the system of education in Ireland could be seeimileted to that of England. The truth, he believed, was that the Irish system had not failed as an educational machinery, but it had failed in carrying out its original programme as all its prederarsors had done. Mr. MONSELL tletaied that the Mimesis eduction in Ireland was ov. r done, but admitted that the eyebolt had not been oucceralel. in establishing it 253,0001. had been event, and 263 students had eraduated, the cost to the nation being therefore exactly 1,0001. • head. (Hear, hear.) Could any failure be more complete? Mr. LEFROY, as member for the University of Dahlia, felt hound to say • few words on the subject before the house. For the And tune they heel heard the subject of separate education approached by the znemberfor the Queen's County. and had heard it temperately discuses& by the bonnie. He (Mr. Lefroy) bad often attempted to prove that the national system of education In Ireland was a failure. He admitted that the board had done touch good, that their book. were , excellent, and that the system had its advantages, but still ' as • machinery for mixed education be contended that it had entirely failed. He thought that the views of the bee. I member for Maidstone ware all important fir Ireland, and hoped that they would have to thank the present government for carrying them out into practical operation. Lord NAAS ooneretulated the holm and the conically on the temperate tone of the diecuseion. Ile agreed with teach that had fallen from the honourable member for Limerick. He admitted that the notions' system hod conferred Inestimable benefit. on Ireland, but still they had never been able to make it a united one. He feared, however, that it would be impossible to extend at once the English system to Ireland, as there was already there an extrusive organisation, and any redden disturbance might be dangerous. The late government had a plan in contemplation for the extension of the pettiest, system, but their retirement from office prevented its introduction to the hours. He hoped, however, that the subject would be at tended to by their immersers. The national system required to be extended and widened, and he hoped some plan with that object would engage the attention of the present able Secretary for Ireland. Mr. ESMOND& said that all parties in Ireland were "greed thee there must be some change in the system. Mr. CARDWELL elated hie views upon this subject. He did not agree that the colleges had been a Were; although they might not have fully succeeded, their result, suggested hops and enroursgement. As to the larger question, rela ting to the national system of education, if that system be compared with what existed before 1830, and looking at the number of school end of scholars and its prat veal results in books, legal schools and admirable training, could ft be said to be • failure ? The system of mixed education, in his opinion, hod not faded so entirely as many supporad ; but he did not hold the primary p ri nciple of the national system to be that of a mixed education; the leading principle from the beginning had been non-interference with the reli gion, opieione of the people. It would have been remark able, mistiming the difficulties in its way, if mixed education bad fully succeeded ; but the practical results of the national system had been Invaluable to Ireland. It would, be remarked, be prommetuons in him to say more than that the government felt the most serious desire to give the fullest coseideration to every proposal, from whatever quorum bromine:oex, that would inerease the efficiency of the nalionitl system while maintaining the integrity of its TILECIVIL SERVICE ESTIMATES.-EDUCATION. _ Oa the Tots of 688,9204 for pablio oxhicazicol Is Groat Mr. LOWE roes and said that the total amount of the estimate for public education in Orem Britain was 836.9101, the total estimate for the department of science and art was 93,3911., and the gross sum wee somewhat more than 930,0001. His would first address himself to the sum re quired for England, 838,0001. It waa instructive and n timating to watch the increase of that vote, to show wh i ch he would state a few figures. The drat v..te was in 1834, when It wan 10,6121.0.. Bed., and the expenditure had ad vanced till its the year 1849 it was 109,9481. in 1852 it hod risen to 188,0001., in 1863 it bad rime to 260,0001., M 1864 It had IMOD to 316,0001., in 1866 it had rata to 369,0001•, in 1868 it had risen to 423.0001, in 1867 to 659,0001., sod In 1858 it had ruched to 688,0001. It seemed, therefore, that it had attained a gradual and weedy progrua of 100,0001. per annum. The utiles , e for this year appeared larger time it really was. The 838,0001 should fairly he subject to a deduction of 76,6881., which was made revv of the dificiencies of former years. In the year 1867 the d between the estimate and the expenditure wu 111,9001., In 1838 the mese of expenditure over estimate wee 19,1091., while in 1869 the excess watt 44,6621., which three sums made up the 76,6081. The house might mishap) think that this threw discredit on the =nt, but it was not so, for Mau estirost , • materially frets all callers. They were not properlf estimates, bat conjectures.

U he had followed his own thelinaticre, having made this small floancial state ment, he would have sat down, but be was told that it was expected of every one in the position which he occupied to say something about education, and therefore he should make a few remarks. Toe home was aware that • commie ion, under the presidency of the Duke of Newcastle, was sitting to investigate the eyetem of public education in England. While that commiseion was situate it would not be proper for him to trouble the house with speculations u to what educa tion ought to be. Bat he might to allowed to place before the house a few good and bad points in the present system of education, so as to enable them to judge how far the present system war dealeshis. Any impartial would admit that the system bad many advantages. the firth place, it had arisen naturally out of the existing state of thing* without say disturbance of 'elating ferliege and institutions. It had sprung up by availing itself et the existence of the great **ions institutions, and its principle involvlog some metralisettere caused as little centralisation as possible, and the whole plan meant connexion with voluntary aborts; it offended no honest prejudice, it left every sect free to leech its religions doctrines, and it had done as much good es the state of feeling in England on the sub ject would allow. It bad gins no ardenery prod of strength, by showing that It wee 'viable of in crease. No better teat of health coati be found in • man, a tree or a system, than its capability for steady and symme trical growth. You could see its tangible multi in the unbar of thbools all over the country, for though to a great extent they were the result of private beuevolthice aid libe rality, the volatilise, metributione standing in a ratio of three to two, there waa no doubt that the disttitutlon of the fo nd s at the disposal of the government bed called forth an &mown of private liberality which, without that stimulus would not We been evoked, and the system must be looked at, not as • mere expenditure of public money, but as a stimulus to private benevolence. The system found popular education in a rude and imperfect condition. If it, wee put an end to to-morrow, it would not be denied that it bed founded a sound einem and created • standard of popular education to which every thing which came after it moth attain. It had another merit, inasmuch as it had not only established a system of popular education, but it had created an agency by which it would be carried out. By the machinery of pupil teachers the system had raised a large and intelligent body of iostructors, the poseweion. of whom would be luvaluable to any weeny that wished more widely to dismal:eats the blessings of avilimation. It hod stimulated, too, Is • very remarkable manner the energies of the teachers, because it gave them, in addition to their minimum salary of at least 301. a year ' an augmentation of lemma proportionate to their maim, tohe iodated by an ex amination. It bad also, by educatiog the pupil teachers, sent forth into the world a number of young moo, the moos of very poor parents, furnished with a meat deal of andel and valuableinformation. It had thus had • tendency to pro mote secondary as well as primary education; for it bad given to persons in the lower walk, of life • type of education, which they would not otherwise have obtained. The centransation of the system had bad soother goad effect—it had enabled the Privy Council to order of the book sellers works required in tuition, nod to distribute them amongst schools at a discount of not less than 40 per cote. It had also, by stimulating ark-mend for education, done very much to raise the rate of remuneration paid to the teacher, and had thus effected what the friends of popular instruction had always coneidered as a moot desirable deject—it had elevated the status of the profession, and made it one to . which young men might reasonably be expected to devote themsolvee. Once more, Ly the system of itspection it had kept up the standard of each school ; and it had made every teacher feel that he was the object of vigilant interest. (Hear.) These appeared to him (to the right hen. gentleman) to be the principal benedte which the plan had con ferred upon the country; and he thought no candid man, whatever might be his opinions as to the principles upon which it was founded, would deny that they were benefits of no ordinal) , character. (Cheers.) Whether it was to remain as • permanent system, or whether they treated ilea an experi ment which bad done some good in its dry, but which was now destined to give place to a more perfect system, nobody could say that thee had any reason to regret what it bad cost the country. The total expenditure it bad involved warn a sum of 3,700,0001., and no one he thought would my that that money had been 111 spent. (Cheers.) Ho now came to enumerate what appeared to him to be its drawbacks ; but before he did so he was bound to say that they beamed to arise from the defective character of the sys tem itself, and not from any maladministration on the part of those who bad preceded him. (Hear.) The first and moat obvious fault we., that being founded upon voluntary contribution* and pre-supposing that there were in every district persons able and withag to undertake the maingement of the school'', the ey.tem could never be come a thoroughly national one. What was still more un fortunate was that where it was most wanted It was least efficient; and when it was most efficient it was least wanted. (Hear, hear.) That was unhappily a defect which could not to remedied except by • fundamental alteration. Another evil wee the strict rules which ir entailed, and which it was absolutely necessary to 'maintain in order to prevent the commit from being devoured. (A laugh.) If they were to adopt an equitable construction of their rules and allowed themselves to consider hard cue* they would be swept away by the demands that would be made upon them. Every thing would become an exception • bulwark after bulwark would be broken dome, and they w ould soon have to satisfy every demand that was made upon theta by any respectable person. (Hear, hear.) Another evil was the emphasis which the system gave to denominational differences. When it was first begun the trait deeds of schools were oh= very loosely worded, but as soon as it was known that it was inteeded to moist the voluntary efforts of the different denominations, then the deeds began to be drawn with great care, sad the denominational differences of the founders were brought out in the sharpest posrible manner. It was very much to be repelled that public money should have been expended in endowing actual* moot of which were founded on very exclusive principles. lie could not hut think that the suggestion of the boo. member for Belfast with respect to another matter would be well applied to this, sad that before a grant was made to any deoommatiensl church, the founders should be required to introduce some sort of conscience dolma into its trust deed, so that children might not be compelled to learn the formularies of the mot to which the school belonged if its WOWS objected. (Hear, hear.) That was In effect already done in many instances. Theft were &ROMen of the church of Enelend who ware latter thee their,bond, end were willing to open their schools; bat thereweremany others wheread the formularies of their felt gion se • test to drive away children of dbasenters, unless they were willing to submit at once to the religions teaching of their schools. (Hear, bear.) Another evil in the system wee the arrangement which the different wets had made with the oranwil, that their schools should each be inspected by an inepector of the same religion. The result was, that of the 69 inspectors, the tasteless of at least nee-third might be die peneed with if a different rule prevailed. Another evil was the complication which the present system intro duced into the beanies, of the antral office. There wens 16.000 pupil teacher* 6,000 schthimastere ended/Meows, and 69 inspectors, of different religions. Then there were building prang, which often lemained 18 months in abeyance before the partire could nape the money. Then there were than training school* in which a certain member of pupil teachers were admitted as Qvaten' ,, scholars on pawing an examination; to that every Chlitheiss the council had to examine no fewer than 6,000 persons. Then the managers of scrap were a very uncertain and fluctuat ing body, and in fact the committee often hardly knew whom they were dealing with. The results of them things was to entail upon the conneil a vest amount of business fa the way of correspondence. (Hear, hear.) He bad meationed these drawback. on the pretreat .yatem with the same fairness ea he had described its adrantages • and his object la bringing them forward wee not with • ;law to create a prejudices sgainst it, but merely became it was the only and the very humble contribution which he could make towards the betas mem of that Important question which they would soon have coded with, namely.whether they should maintain the present plea, or to regard it as merely paving the way to another It (Hear, hear.) The probable ultimate cost of national educa tion was • rubject on which he might be 'Bowed to say • few words. The country was at present assisting in the education of about 821,000 children, at • net coot of about 730 0001., after deducting the deficiency in former rens. This was about eetfivalent to 121. for 13 children. ft was ealculated that there were stout 9000,000 children who onglit to be brought under the agency of oar public educa tion. Of course it was not likely that all who ouelft to be educated would ever be brought within the jurisdiction of the Ptivy Council; but, on the other hand, the number of chil dren to be educated might be expected to increase with the growth of the population.
