IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS—TUESDAY, Fen. 6. The LORD CHILIICILLOS to3k kin seat on the woolsack et ball-peer 4 &dock whea the swesrieg in of peers cow neeneed, and eentlemod until a quarter pest 5 o'clock. The house was crowded, the bench of bishops being quite full, as also were the erase beeches where the Prince of Wales and the Doke of Cambridge took their seats shortly after the oommeseament of business. Both prints. looked in the beet health and spirits, end the Duke of Cambildge re alised many congratulations on his royal bighness's reco very from his recent illness. Earl Grey took his seat ea the trout eras beech immediately next the two princes. The mover of the address, rho . Marquis of Norman y, and tie seconder, the Karl of Motley, entered the house in tad firm, and took their rate oa the frost beach. THE ABYSSINIAN CAPTIVES. Lord CHELMSFORD gave Ditties for an witty day to ask the noble lord the Secretary for Foreign Affairs whether say information had email" been received respecting the British consul and other British subjects who had so long been held citptiveio Abyssinia. He wished to know how far Mr. .BAlLltlfel mission had advanced, and whether any other effort had been made for the liberation of the captives inriog the long interval which had elapsed since the last session of parliament. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. The LORD CHANCELLOR laid on the table certain re- Was relative to the Court of Bankruptcy. THE ROYAL SPRECR. TM LORD CHANCELLOR thee rose and read her Ma lbsty's speeoli, upon which The Marquis of NORMANBY moved the address in mply. The noble marquis expressed general concurrence with the sentiments enunciated by her Majesty, noticing especially the conclusion of the civil war in the United States of Americo, and the establishment of commercial relations with Austria. As to the state et things is Jameica, it was, he thought, unfortunate that Governor Ryre had not sent home such full de tails as would have prevented the necessity of sending eat a commissina. At the same time, he could not believe that Mr. Byre had been guilty of the severities and illegal sets which had bees attributed to him until there was evi dence to prove that such was the cam. Having reviewed ether paragraphs in the Royal Speech, the noble marquis referred to the promised measure of parliamentary reform, expressive his hope that it would respect the rights of pro perty, whilst it would give a fair share in the representa tins to the working cheese. Lord MORLEY, in seconding the motion for the address, paid a tribute to the memory of the late venerable premier, said, above all, dwelt noon the heartfelt gratification with which the country bailed the cessation of the civil war is America, and which now allowed one of the greatest branches of the Allele-Saxon race to peacefully develop their almost boundless resources and cement the perfect freedom of their instlutions. While declining to express a definite opinion on the recent event' in Jamaica, he still could not help regretting that a nume rous clam in this country had, on the most issufficient evidence, prejudged the whole question, and, without waiting for his defence, virtually conde mned: Governor Eyre. The Duke of RUTLAND booed that even now et this late hour they might be able to iodate the government to rouse from their slumber, and do what le oosoeived to be their duty—to stop all movement et cattle is England, and also to p t all importa tion of cattle from abroad. The other day he was present at a meeting in Leioesterahire on this subject, sod the peerage which was most applauded in one of the speeches wag this—" We most pat oar shoulders to the wheel, and we must get rid of the rinderpest, or if not we must get rid of the government." (Laughter.) The Duke of RICHMOND felt that the conduct of her Majesty's government since mid before the alarming spread of this plague wan op's to the gravest censure. There was another topic introduced into her Majesty's vetch with which he was more or leas mixed up. He alluded to that paragraph of the speech in which her Majesty says that a bill would be submitted to parliament founded on the report of the royal commission on the subject of capital panishmmt. He expressed his own opinion, and he be- Erred he expremed also the sentiments of a majority of his brother commissioners who sat with him, when he :preened their great asnoyance that the report of the commission, before it was signed by the commissioners, before it was pretested to her Majesty, should have appeared in the columns of the Morning Star. (Hear, hear.) He cosai dared that to be a breach of confidence towards the mem bers of the commission and a gross want of respect to the sovereign on the throne. (Hear, hear.) Lord FEVERSHAM moved the following amendment: —" We beg leave to add our deep regret that upon this important subject the government did not from the first assume the responsibility of issuing an order for uniformity of action throughout the country, aa most essential to arrest the progress and to mitigate the severity of go viru lent, appalling, and destructive a malady." The &el of EFFINGHAM would be glad to know what her Majesty's government were proposing to do ; and he could assure them that it would be received either with dismay, or with something like hope, according to what might prove to be its tenor. (Cheers.) The Earl of WINCHLLSEA perfectly agreed with the noble seri that her Meeety's overoment had done little or mottling ; but he ma di to go still further. Is the little they had dons they had exceeded their authority ; and they had done that which they had no mare right to do than they had to put their hands into any of their lordships' pockets and take out what they pleased. (Laughter.) Earl GRANVILLE., defending the government, said he believed there would soon be another report from the commission. He did not expect it would contain any auggestioes—probably because the last had not been attended to, but they might expect many inter eatiog facts, mid it was the intention of government at the earliest possible moment to introduce a bill into the ethos house of parliament making snob alterations and pro visions as government thought would be adapted to the purpose. He was quite sure that it would be discussed with a total absence of party spirit, but he thought it better not to anticipate it by alluding to its provisions in that house. (Hear, hear.) The Earl of OARNARVON said that every noble lord who had spoken on either side of the house had condemned the course taken by her Majesty's government. For his own part he could not go so far as to say that government was impartible for the introduction of the cattle di/este, but it certainly was for its spread and extension. To go on se they bad done during the past six months would be national ruin. The Marvin of ABERCORN regretted the existence of the mischievous conspiracy in Ireland, but he approved of the measures which had been taken by the pre sent Lord Lieutenant, and desired to pay a tribute to the impartial conduct of the judges and to the 'outage and discernment of the juries —(hear, hear)-- and all this showed that the dignity of the law in Ireland and the confidence of the people in it would effec tually maintain order. Now, while be found no fault with the present Irish government, be could not help expresaing en opinion that an unwise mane was pursued by the late government in delaying till after the general election these prosecutions. (Hear, hear.) Earl GREY renewed the subject of the cattle plague. and in a settee adverse to the eMeittecy and stringency of action of the government. Referring to parliamentary reform, he protested against any attempt to meddle with the bill of 1832, which he held to have been a final measure, and he regretted that the government had consented sod& with the subject. The Duke of ARGYLL was of opinion that the dismis sion on the rattle plague till the bill on the subject was brought in by the government was premature ; and he vindicated the oourse taken in the matter by the executive. Lord DEBBY, after paying • high compliment to the ability shown in the speeches of the mover sled seconder (the seconder especially) of the address C;:ed to review the various subjects of the l ki Speech. In most of these he concurred, but took strong exception to the conduct of the gayer"- meet to Mr. Eyre. Unfortunately (said the noble lord) a portion of the press in this country has taken upon i , self to prejudge the question is the absence of all information, or with vary imperfect and inadequate information. (Hear, bear.) I am not pretending to my that Governor Eyre was justified the mearures of severity, undoubtedly of great severity—which he has adopted, bat this I wiU 54y, that his previous character does not seem to chew that be was a Ems likely to loge his head from sudden panic, or to act moos rumours which bad no solid foundation ; and if there was one poist in his past history wbich was more prominent than another, it was that he hid always ap peared as a protector of the inferior races. (Hear, hear.) M is therefore very unlikely that a man of this character should have been so entirely misled as to have believed that them wee .r dangerous rebellion org tubed over the whole of Jamaica, which rebellion broke out prematurely in one district, and which the iCilonial Secretary admitted to reply to his first despatch, whilst so such rebellion menially had existence. The whole question as to thmernor Eyre'e conduct will turn upon what wee the real mate of the colony, whether there were real grounds for believing that a mooed outbreak was imminent. If there were, then were the measures of severity which were adopted, actually measures of mercy to the Depose them selves in the tied. (Hear, hear.) But, my lords. I pronounce no opinion on that part of the imestion. The government lime, no doubt, received des patches from Governor Eyre from time to time describing the state of the island. He most have told them what wee the opinion of the white people, who still Ismaili leader the delusion that by Governor Eyre's measures the *obey was saved. (Hear, hear.) Ido out say that it wee wr was not ; I wait for inform a ti os . H owever , u p on th e warn which has been adopted by the govemeneet in this errantry I sea in a panties to form an minion, and I must way that I do not thick that course has been either just or esamons towards Governor Eyre. (Oppoiition cheers.) That Mntlessn hes hem 'weeded from his functions without amy reason swiped, and that at a moment when everyone in the colony believed him to have been most sucandul is his oeuvres. How mush doss such a coarse on the part of the =meat make us regret that it should have lost its last (Lend opposition cheers.) Snob • course—a course mike prejodged sod degraded • man without trial—would Writ have been adopted had Locd Palmerston still lived. 111141111•Wetil opposition cheers.) We have Lord Palniseatee's not recorded amithoeste as regards the duty of a govern ment towards its subordinate'. and if Lord Athos-Mon cam aided say error it WM la the more generous extreme of ;: ~~ THE EXPRESS, WEDNESDAY EVENING FEBRUARY 7, 1866 supporting to the utmost of his power el who served under him. I saw in a eerwspsper soh ch was sent to me the ether day • portion of • speech which was delivered by Lord Palmerston is defence of Sir John Bowring for his pro- secutiou of the Chinese war. Lord Paimanthe said : It is not enough to support the representatives of the crown when satisfied that they are right. Even it we believe them to have taken an unwise course, we will not desert them so long as we are satisfied that they bath sated honestly and conscientiously in the service of their oountry." Now mark, my lords—" The moment your policy tithes • different d,rec tion you cease to dewy' the confidence of honourable men. You may get people to serve you, but they will not be those high-minded Essglish gentlemen who ought to represent the country in her remote colonies." (Hear, bear.) Now I do not say that the statements which were received did not make it expedient for the government to require ex plans twos from Governor Eyre, but I do my that to proceed in the first place by sending • governor from another colony to supersede him, leaving him in the island sub ct to examination , degraded in the eyes of the black popu- Ila tion, who were led to believe that thou signal triumph was at hand ; leasing the whites in • panic as to their future I fate—l say that that course was neither just nor generous to Governor Eyre, and must be singularly unfortunate in its effects on both the black and the white population. (Opposition cheers.) I presume that the noble earl at the head of the government has taken the opinion of the law officers at to the legality of that commission. I have great doubts as to its legality, that Is to say, I do not doubt the power of the governmentto seed out ocomenissinotopick rep the gossip of the colony, but that commission, which is really sent to try Governor Eyre for high crimes and misdemean ours, bas not power to summon • single witness, and even Governor Eyre himself may refuse to attend. And per mit me to add, that If the charges made against Mr. Eyre be true, he is liable to be put on his trial for murder, and you are tending out • roving commission to pick up evideooe against him which may afterwards be used on his trial on a capital charge. (Hear, hear.) I think, therefore, that her lkjesty's government have incurred • heavy responsibility by the course they have taken in the case of Jamaica. The noble earl pro. iseeded to charge the government with having from first to last been insensible to the magnitude of the danger of the cattle disease, and said that even now they appeared to be lagging behind public minion in the steps necessary to be taken to grapple with the disease. He also animadverted upon the policy of the government in dialing with the Fenian conspiracy, and is reference to the question of par liameetary reform twitted them with so bungling it that they had at length brought it into • state of hopeless con fusion. His lordship thee proceeded to quote in the most humorous manner from the speeches of Lord Remelt in the lower house upon reform, and said no one was more noxious to hear the details of the measure than the members who sat on his lordship's side of the house. I infer from the speech (he mid) that the government have not their measure ready. (Hear, hear.) Moreover, I infer that they have not made up their minds what that mature shall be, (" Hear, hear," and laughter.) If they have they have done themselves great injustice, because they say that inquiries are now going forward with respect to the right to vote for members of parlia ment, and when that information is completed, the attention of parliament will be called to the result. Now, either the government are proceeding without the information, or they are intending to make the infor mation square with the pre-determieation—(" hear, hear," and laughter)—or they mast be possessed of such super human faculties that they know by instinct what will be the result of the inquiry, although we bumbler mortals must wait until we have the information before us, which will prove the wonderful skill and dexterity with which theT have prepared their bill in anticipation. In one thing I will not imitate the noble earl—l will express no opinion on the bill until I see it. Then I hope it will be such as I may be enabled to rapport. I trust it will be a reasonable settlement of a great and important question—a question which I quite agree with my noble friend (Earl Grey) it is desirable, if possible, to settle, and settle once and for all. This I can promise the noble earl, that his bill shall have fair olay—(bear)—that it shall Gotha put aside by any under hand proceeding; that there shall be no abstract resolution to combine parties against it which can join in nothing alas. (Oppostinu cheers.) We will deal with it on its merits; if we approve of it we will give it oordial support ; if we disapprove of it—if we think it dangerous, mischievous, or imperfect—above ell, if we think it likely to lead to future agitation eta dangerous character, thee we will do our best to throw it out, but to throw it out by fair debate and honourable opposition. (Loud thetas.) Earl RUSSELL, whose opening observations were quite inaudible, said—My lords, as the other topics raisedin the debate have been sufficiently dummied, I shall confine myself to two points—the charge which the noble earl has made with reference to the Jamaica inquiry, and the other charge in reference to reform. The question I. not whether Governor Eyre was right in suppressing the rebellion, bat whether he was right in adopting the mea sures he did to put it down. It is one thing to support au officer who may have committed some error of judgment ; but when it oomes to • question of the lives of 500 of our fellow-subjects, Ido not think it is right to say we do not care whether 500 persons have been put to death without necessity, but we will support the governor whether he is right or wrong, and we care nothing about those persons' lives because they happened to he black. We determined that an inquiry should be made, and the question before us then was whether the inquiry should be instituted with Governor Eyre at the head of that government. There was this ob vious objection, that the governor could not have main tained his authority when that authority would have been shaken everyday as the inquiry proceeded. There was also this obvious objection, that if Governor Eyre retained the supreme authority, noon* would have believed that the inquiry was a fair one, or that the truth would be permitted to i.e told while the person accused retained that high office. With respect to Governor Eyre, also, while an apparent stigma wee east upon him he would be liable to the imputa tion of suppressing the evidence, and not allowing that evidence to go fairly before the public. So, for those reasons, therefore, it was determined that the head of the commission should be supreme governor of the island, and I venture to say that we could not have chosen a man of higher honour or character, or one more fitted to inspire respect or to support and maintain autho rity in the island. We have associated with him Mr. Res pell Gurney and Mr. Man'e, and no two persons were more likely to take a correct view of the law of the case. We were aware that the commissioners could not take evidence upon oatb. Directions, however, went out that the legis lature should be called together to enable the °ramie sinners to take evidence on oath, avid Sir Henry Storks has called the legislature together to give him authority to exa mine on oath. It was clear to us that it was impossible to refuse inquiry from the ease made out by Governor Eyre, himself. It was equally impossible to have had a complete and satidaotory inquiry if be remained at the head of affairs, and therefore the only justifiable course wee that which we took. As to the other question, that of parlia mentary reform, I have not much further to say. I think, however, the bill of the government will be brought in quite as soot after the meeting of parliament as was that of the noble earl. The information bas been very lately no ceived, but there is • portion of it, the correctness of which in doubted, and that has been sent back. Ido not doubt, however, that by the end of the month the govern ment will be ready to propose their measure. The noble earl has some complaint to make against mess to the manner in which his own bill was met, and that makes it necessary for me, although I should otherwise have postponed my re marks on this subject, to state that I entertained very grave and solid objections to the: bill, which made it impossible for me to agree to the second reading. My first objection was that it took away a right which had been enjoyed not only from the time of Henry VI., but from the very earliest time of our parliamentary history—namely, the right of free holders to vote for the counties in which they reside. That was an towential pert of the constitution, so essential that when the late Earl Grey told me that it was very likely a provision would be 'streamed in the House of Lords into the great Reform Bill taking away from freeholders the right of voting for counties in which they reside, and confiniog them to vote in the boroughs, I told Earl Grey that if the bill clime down with that alteration I should consider the measure so vitiated that I would myself move in the Rouse of Commons that that Reform Act, with all its good sod great provisions, !should be rejected. The Earl of DERBY—May I set the noble earl was that always his view as to the value and importance of main taining that provides Earl RUSSELL—There was another provision in the bill of the noble earl which proposed to restore nomination boroughs. According to the Reform Act many of the small boroughs in which there were 10 or 12 voters were enlarged by 10/. voters, so that they contained 300, 400, or 500 voters, whereby they were welded to seed men of their own opinions to parliament. Now the noble earl had a provision in his bill by which freeholders in counties would have voted fee those boroughs. There was also • provision that theca might be ;eat by post, so that noble lords sad right boo. gentlemen in some distant county might send by post the votes of 300 or 400 tenants who never went near the plates, and thus virtually obtain emitrol over the election nod carry it. These provisions, with the absence of any adequate extension of the franchise to persons occupying houses under 101. • year, made the bill id) bsdthat it was impossible to support it. The noble earl when first minister of the crown introduced two measures—one • budget impoelog a very large ma upon houses, and the other • measure for the government of India. I considered they were exceedingly bad measures, cad they were both rejected by parliament, as also was the measure which the noble earl introduced under the name of • reform of par- I Het:neut. I objected to that bill, and I stated my ob -1 jeotions folly and Mile. It was defeated by no anderhind proceedings, but by open and fair opposition. My noble friend was • supporter of the measure of Lord Grey, which he intended to carry a great deel farther. But when that bill passed, and became law, it did not prevent us from disatuMog Mr. Hume's propositions for farther re form ; and thereon if parliament agreed to a measure of reform now, it would not preclude the consideration of any other ineamme that might be subaqua otly proposed. (Elmo Earl MELVILLE expressed the dimatiefaotion he felt at the unworthy treatment which Governor Eyre received at the hands of the government. The LORD OHANOELLOR then put the amendment. The Earl of DERBY expressed • hope that his noble friend would sot prom his amendment, as there would be ample opportunity for diseuseing the quietism when the go rses:mot introduced their bill. Lard FEV/111811A.21 withdrew his amendment. The address was then agreed to, and their lordships ad journed at ton minutes past 11. HOUSE OF COBIMONS.—TursDAy, FEB. 6. The SPEAK= took the chair at one o'clock, at which time there were nearly 310 members present. The adml nistratbn of the walla was coati , ,nei, and hastened forward as rapidly us possible, members canting to the table in batches of 49. Among those sworn were Sr John Walsh, Mr. C. Brno', Sir Graham Montgomery, Mr. Kekewich, Mr. &outfield, Mr. Firmed, Colonel Lloyd Lindsay, Mr. R. Sheridan, Sir W. W. Wynne, Mr. W. Wynne, Colonel Edwards, Mr. Robert Hanbury, Mr. Maguire, Mr. Brady, Lord H. DODOS, Mr. Laing, Mr. Antrobus Mr. F. Crossley, Lord Wilton, General Peel, Mr. Neste , Sir Robert Peel, Mr. Henley, Mr. Pollard Urquhart, Mr. Whalley, Mr. Whit worth, Mr. Stirling, Mr. A. Russell, Mr. Beaumont, Sir C. Sykes, Mr. A. Baas, Mr. Conj., an d Mr. R. Mills. Baron Rothschild wee sworn upon the Old Tes tament. At a quarter past two, Sir Augustus Clifford, the Castle man Usher of toe Block Rod, entered the home with the usual formalities, and, approaching the table, said, " Mr. Speaker, the Queen commands the immediate attendance of this honourable house io the lima of Peers." The Speaker ( who wore the state robe.) accordingly left the house, followed by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Sir Charles Wood, the Attorney-General, Sir George Grey, the Marquis of Hartingtoe, and nearly all the members present. After an absence of a quarter of an hour the right hos. gestlemaa rammed and the sitting was suspended. The slicing was resumed at a quarter to tour o'clock. when the following instal:oars, ►mosgst other., Conk the oaths and signed the roll—Mr. Percy Wyndham, Mr. H. Cole, Mr. R. Long, Mr. Lyron, Mr. Crum Ewing, the Lord Advocate, and Mr. Chas. Forster. At the boor for the ooconteneement of business them was a fall house. Captain CARNEGIE, admitting the evil, on the whole defended ministers. The subjael was pursued by Sir J. Trollops, Sir M. W. Ridley, and Mr. liodskinson. Mr. T. G. BAJILNG explained and defeoded the course taken by the Hems OMes, which had shrunk from n 7 re• sponsibility, and bad made every e ff ort to cheek the plague. He combatted the suggeitions which had been made to stop all traffic is beasts, which would prevent the imports from Ireland. when the rinderpest did not exist ; and that all imported cattle should be slaugh , ered at the spot where they were landed, se being impracticable, while it would be equally impossible at once to change the live beast into • deed meet Wade. _ Mr. LOWE (one of the Royal Commissioners on the Cattle Plague) said that from the moment it was aster t dried that the disease was identwal with the Steppe lour raio, and this was shown in an early stage of he progress, further inquiry was as unnecessary as inquiry Imo small pox or measles. What the government should have done, therefore, was to have put themselves is the posi tion of deciding that question before they determined up= issuing a oommiasion. In that commission the ma jority and the minority bad agreed that the real remedy was the stoppage of all traffic, sod that whatever was to be dose should be done by the action of the central govern ment, and on no account be left to the local authorities. He was satisfied that restrictions ought not to be imposed upon one pert of the country and not on another, and that the action should have been uniform. Mr. HENLEY believed that everybody was at find die posed to give the government rapport in their measures to check the spread of the disease, but virtually they had done nothing, for their offer to • thousand local authorities to do that which they ought to have done themselves was tantamount to that. Prompt mesouree at the outset, the stoppage of fairs and markets, and the esforoement of a system of isolation would, he thought, have checked its extemitio. In these circumstances he was tempted to ask what was the use of a government if they did not, with snob difficulties as this, take the lead in facing them Lord CRANBORNE was disappointed at the reticence of ministers on this subject, for they appeared not only con tent to have inflicted the greatest injury on the agricul tural interest that it hod suffered for the last century, but to treat its complaints with something like contempt. Ooe fast was clear, however, that their measures had failed to check the diseam. It had gone on increasing until upwards of a hundred thousand bead of colds had fallen victims to its ravages. If the government were at a loss to know what steps to take to stop this fearful calamity they might have followed the example set by a libera l government in a neighbouring constitutional country, Belgium, where such effectual measures had been adopted that only 600 head of cattle had been lost, and that at en expense of not more than 5,0001. Mr. LESLIE described the precautions adopted with such mimeos in the county of Aberdeen, and urged that what had been done on so small a scale might have been applied with equal advantage to the whole country. Sir G. GREY replied in detail to the objectiono taken to the action of the government, and maintained that the more stringent r igulations which had been recom mended in the cosine of the debate would have produced so mach difficulty sod vexation that they would not have been tolerated by the people. Ho referred to the case of Aberdeenshire to show that the orders, where the magistrates had taken full advantage of them, were efficicions in stopping the disease, and regretted that similar energy had not been shown is other parts of the country. On the question of compen sation, Sir G. Grey mentioned that in the last century the practice had produced such bad results, there being no local interests to keep down the amount, that it was given up. _ - - The O'DONOGHUE moved the adjournment of the debate. Mr. MAGUIRE seconded the motion. . . The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that although it was rather earlier than the house was accus tomed to adjourn one question of this character, yet as he believed the bon. ruemoer intended to call attention to a new subject, he thonght they could not fairly ask him to open that question at so late an hour. It would cot be convenient to continue the debits to-morrow (this day), bat it might be adjourned until Thursday. (Hear, hear.) The motion was then agreed to. The house adjourned at 25 minutes to 12 o'clock. MIDLAND RAILWAY.—The directors of the Mid land Railway Company yesterday decided to recommend to the proprietors a dividend on the ordinary stock, for the half-year ending 31st December, 1865, at the rate of 71. per cent. per annum.

Owe tte. THE 11YDRADLIO LITZ AT THE GREAT WESTERN I Hover.—Yesterday Dr. Laskester, the coroser for Central Middlesex, resumed the inquiry at the Beek of England Tavern, Paddington, relative to the death of Beery Giring a porter emptied at the Great Western Rail. way Hotel, who died in St. Mary's Hospital from an in jury received by the hydraulic lift need at the hotel. Jane Kenyon, chambermaid at the hotel, said she wee on the second floor at the time of the accident. She heard the deceased scream. She went to the lift and tried to ' stop it, but could not. John Whitcomb* stopped the lift, and she saw deceased standing in it. As be passed the second flew he was holding out hie onto. She saw no one go to the lift till deceased called out. Aon Booth, second housemaid on the third floor, said on the Bth ult., shortly before 8 o'clock in the morainic, she was on the fourth floor, and maw the deceased putting the luggage into the lift. She saw him pull the chain to start it. and his band got caught before he could get it out. He cried out "Stop it ! stop it ! for God's sake, stop it." Wit was was afraid to stop it. She wassnrs the deceased started I it himself. She could not see below, but she heard no one there. She saw the lift standing still, and start when de ceased touched the chain. If anyone below bad started it, the deceased would Lave run to the chain and stopped it. The witness wee on the fifth floor, and saw deceased pat his band through and tattle the chain, when the lift started downward. The was some luggage in the lift—a portmanteau, a gentleman's rug, and other things, but it was rather desk, so that she did not take much notice. She did not speak to the de ceased while he was putting in the luggage. She never saw the lift started without the chain being first shaken. Some queations were asked and opinions given relativist° the Mt, when it was stated that on no aanuet should it I be raised without the necessary signal, nor should it be lowered without the chain being first shaken. The weight i of pull required to raise the lift was 30th., and to lower it i 251 b. The deceased several times stated that someone below ! did start the lift without the signal. it having been stated ' that then had been two or three previous woideate with the lift in question, the jury felt that some steps should be taken for the better protection of those engaged with it. The coroner having summed up, the jury returned a verdict that " Deceased died from the mortal effete ofpycoaia coming on after injury to the hand, such injury Wogs:mused by an by- , draulic lift at the Great Western Railway Hotel, wad that the said injury arose from accidental calms." The jury also expressed an opinion that bells or whistles should be used as signals for putting the lift in motion, and that, as one side of the lift was encased with iron plates, the other should be similarly encased, so as to prevent the men putting their hands out to touch the chain. Mr. Weston said the latter suggestion was already being carried out, and that with respect to the other, as to bells or whistles, the company would adopt one of the schemes proposed.
