BARCIA Y asked the Under bursary ot State for rte colonies whether any stela have been take, by the Mauritius government, daft the renewed matbreek of fever, to promote sanitary reform in the town of Port Lois and whether any instructions have be sent, or are about to be sent, by the home government, empower ing either the governor or the General Board of Health to enierce the sanitary meamree required. Mr. ADDERLEY said tho last information from the mmritius, dated the Ath February, stated that fever was O. the increase, but the chief medical °Hoer said it bad :Men a much milder form, and a smaller proportion of attack, were fatal, also that proper sanitary immures bad been adopted. Additional medical *Moen were sent foi from India. Mr. WHALLEY called attention to the perilous pad :ion of the Stith Regiment in the Mauritius, and asked, for Information on the 'abject Mr. ADDERLEY said he believed proper precautions id been taken to protect the regiment in question. RELIGIOUS, km, BUILDINGS (SITES) BILL. On the order of the day for the second reading, :Mr. HADFIELD presented &petition in favour of the bill. The hon. member then moved the second reading of the bill, which he Said was substantially the same ss that passe d :lirough that house last year without a dissentient voice. There was ! 60 far as he knew, no opposition to it. The ao ble aim learned lord who bald the seals e a: a te government, was Pavattlill" 11,111rle • 1111 1 had reason to believe, was the present Lord :xll persons connected with rehgtous t benevolent, ani Ciaritable institutions wen intereeled in the passing of the measure, which would only place such institutions in a similar position to that occupied by public companies. The Mortmain Act applied to the leavingolrealpropertyby will ; but what he proposed was that when pertains wish during their lifetime to invest money for religious, chari table, or benevolent purposes they should not be subjected to the enormous expense of endowment under :he Mortmain Act within twelve months after the exam :ion of the deed. Many deeds bad been made legal lid binding in the Court of Chancery after laving remained invalid for a tong period. The present state of the laiv inflicted great inconvenience and expense on religious and benevolent Institutions. The bill having been lost last year in the Henan of Lords, he :as now under the necessity of renewing it, and he traded .t would again receive the support of the government and -he house. __. . . . Mr. IikADLLY said he was chairman of a committee mortmain which sat some years ago, and he saw no tion to the bill. .- . . The ATTORNEY-GENEILLL had no wish to oppose :be bill, though be thought it desirable that for some par pws the restrictions of the Mortroain Bill should be uitained. _ - LIBEL BILL ""ir C. 01.00RLEN having moved the second reading of this bill, fir R. COLLIER said, in sainting to the second -eliding, he wished to guard himself against being sup posed to approve of the clause which made speakers at public meetings legally responsible for their words instead of persona who published them. If that clause were not given up by the promoters of the bill, he should hereafter move its omission. . . . . Mr. WHALLBY denied that there was any injustice in the law as it stood. . • . The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said he was not going to oppose the Noted reading, it being a fair matter for die cuanon in committee whether it was right in principle. On more than one occasion it had been shown in the courts of law that hardship had arisen from the illegality of nod fide reports of public meetinp. (Hear, hear.) If a person went to a meeting at which reporters were pre sent, it could not be assumed that he did not know that the speeches would be publialied. (Hear, hear.) The distinction between words spoken and words written had to a great extent vanished, and it appeared to him that if statements against a person were made in public, that person oight to have an opportunity of showing in a court of law that they were unfounded. (Hear, hear.) There was nothing in the bill, as he understood, to inter fere with freedom of speech. Mr. AYRTON was of opinion that the bill passed through the house last session in consequence of the assu rance of his bon. and learned friend that he did not mean to carry it any further, it being regarded as one of his hon. and learned friend's many efforts to benefit society. (Laughter.) A member of the committee which sat on the bill had assured him that he considered it mischievous in its present shape. He (Mr. Ayrton) would consent to the second reading on the understanding that the leading provisions would be well considered in committee. The great question was whether newspaper proprietors were to hive the same responsibility as all other persons en go:,ind in similar occupations, or whether they should be iranteed against the consequences of their own negli gence. In his opinion, this was an attempt to degrade re porting, which was one of the most honourable of pro down to the level of a mere mechanical erooess. (Hear, hear.) If the bill passed, • news paper proprietor might employ Si • reporter a mere writer at a few shillings a week instead of a gentleman of ~nd intelligence, capable of exercising a just (Hear, hear.) The question must be con sidered more deeply than it had been by the hon. and learned gentleman. Mr. M. tiIBSON said, as a member of the committee which considered this subject, he came th e conc l usio n !list it was necessary the Prelia should be defended against vexatious actions. (Hear, hear.) But ho was not pre. l i;,red to say that newspaper proprietors should be -tempted from the necessity of exercising • wise discretion. As the bill stood, if a report were ..ccurste that was to be a sufficient defence. In Mx opinion accuracy should be admissible as part of the evidence, the court being left to say what was its value ; 'out mere accuracy should not be • sufficient defence .done. A person might by ordering a large number of papers secure a report which would do great injustice. The yin. scion whether Meta should be allowed in certain simils of actions was a material one. He was not pre pared for that alteration in the cue of slander which was now proposed, wishing freedom of speech to be main :Ailed. He should, however, vote for the second reading. Mr. HENLEY admitted that the difficulty of this wßte: way very great. The question was in whit manner the freedom of the press WAS to be seemed. On the fi rst ntroduction of tbe r bill he saw no safety it the change there proposed. It was much modified in the select com mittee. He thought words uttered wish the knowledge that they would be taken down were very different from words spot en under different circumstances. (Hear.) Consider. ing the rapidity and excellence of reports, it was not to be supposed that reporters would not make an accurate re. cord ; but the question was whether what they wrote should be published—whether, on a balance of wove !dances ►nd inconveniences, it was more just that a pub lisher should suffer or the person who uttered the words. The question was one of great difficulty. It did not seem to him just that a man who uttered words in the presence perhaps of 5,000 persons should go scot free, while the publisher of his words was punished. Mau, hear.) He thought that in the committee he '.hould be disposed to support some such protection for newspaper proprietors as was now proposed. (Hear, hear.) Sir C. Olt )CHLEN, adverting to the remarks et Mr. Ayrton, denied that he said anything last mainion im plying that be did not intend to carry the bill beyond that Louse. He was prepared to defend the clauses of the bill 31r. HI:ARDEN felt great plesaure in sup the second reading, Laving been for 35 years •rd of news papers. (Lttighter.) The bill was then read a wasond time, and the oosn mittee i.xed for the 20th of May. ARTISANS' AND LABOURERS' DWELLINGS BILL. The house went into committee on this bill. On clause 6, empowering the officer of public health to .: ; :or: on the condition of houses in any street, Ar. H. LEWIS obj ec t e d to the authority conferred as excessive. ..Ir. GASELEE took the same view, aliening that it epited that the officer should be not merely a builder but „iso a physician. 317. Lee , LIN defended the clause, and Mr. T. CRAM - t' K.. opposed it. Mr. TORRENS remarked that the principle of t h e bill -al ieen already approved, and this clause was neesweary c ary it out. Mr. H.kP.DY observed that it was not made impera t'w: that the officer's report should be carried out, or that :Ler.: should be any order at all. Nothing could Actually done without the emotion of the .• , t..orities. The house having twice sanctioned the the bill, it appeared to him desirable that it : 1 .1 now endeavour to bring it into a proper shape eon a.ch that principle.

My dear Lord Bishop,—lt is due to your lordship that I shoaW communicate to you ea soon as possible my in tentions with regard to the judgment of the Arches' Ooort in the tom sent to it by your lordship by letters of request.

I have taken a few dap to consider what mum it is pay duty to take under this judgment, and have decided to abide it, without appeal to the higher court, unless moo so to do by any act oa the pert of the promoter. It I know, be most matinfaebtry to many of my friends that I should thus accept the decision of the highest wart which claims spiritual authority rather than appeal to a civil tribunal.

A party of 400 or 500 of the men on strike, many of whom were armed with bludgeons, assembled about 4 o'clock yesterday morning, in tLe neighbourhood of the Lindsay Pit, Wigan, for the purpose of preventing the com• mencement of work. Alarp force ef police had been sent to the place, where they were joined by a party of the Wigan Coal and Iron Company's men, and the two bodies uniting began to clear the road. A road was soon made to the pit for the non-unionists who desired to work, though at one time a heavy shower of stones upon the police made matters look rather serious. On Monday night some scores of pules of glass were broken in the houses of obnoxious workmen, and some little personal injury done, while two bottles of powder with fuses attached were thrown thmgh the windows of other dwelling. No harm was done impad Gi breaking of the windows, as the fuse, which to each owe had been lighted, either burned out before it reached the powder, or was extinguished by the throwing of the bottle. The chief constable deemed it his duty yesterday to sum mon a meeting of magistr,tes. The exact nature of the proceedings did not transpire ; but it was understood that, in oonsequence of the inadequacy of the police force to cope with the turn-outs, application had been made to the military authorities in Manchester for a detachment of troops to assist in the preservation of the pesos of the town. A detachment of 120 men of the 57th Regiment left Victori► Station, Manchester, for Wigan by the 7.10 train last evening. ANOTHER UNBURIED CHILD. An inquiry was held by Mr. Humphreys, Coroner, last evening, at the Windsor Castle Tavern, Victoria-park, relative to the death of a child whose body was found in the roof of a house, No. 31, Pitt-street, Hackney-road. • A cabinet-maker, who became tenant of the house on Wednesday, accidentally made the discovery, the body having been tied in a bundle and deposited between the ceiling and the roof of the house. WMiam Powers, GO, Temple-street, Hackney-road, said that be had lived at 31, Pitt-street, for two years and • half. Be let lodgings, and a young lady_ came there who was delivered of an illegitimate child. To his know ledge that child was vet alive. After th►t two young women took lodgings in the house. They stated that they were machine girl., but they became so irregular in their conduct that be had to apply to the magistrate to get rid of them. They resisted the process so tenaciously, however, that he rather than continue the struggle left the house altogether • month ■ggo. They remained in it for a forte' ht after be left. Their names were Annie Croxwell and Margaret Cole. They were in the house twelve months. Dr. G. Ralph, polioe-surgeon, deposed that the body of the child was ooespletely dederalmed by the bast of the roof from the action of the wen. It must have bees at least 7 or 8 =ago dead. It was impoonlAs to tell what was the cause of death. . The Coroner laid that it was useless to carry the use further as the cause of death could not be ►scert►ined. The police could follow up the matter if other evidence could be got. The jury returned • verdict of " Found dead under the roof of • cert►in house, there being no evidence as to the cause of death."
