IMPERLiL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS.-FRIDAY, APRIL 3. Tin Howls of LORDS met yesterday at the un usually curly hour of half-past 10 o'clock, when the Mutiny Bill and the Marine Mutiny Bill were re spectively read a third time and passed. At a subsequent period of the evening these bills 'and the Consolidated Fund (6,000,0000 Bill re vel ved the royal assent. At the evening sitting, Lord STRAYREDEN called attention to the further correspondence with re spect to the disturbances in Crete, and complained at the French government had abandoned its former policy, and, by playing into the hands of Russia, had neutralised all the advantages gained •by the Crimean war. The Earl of MAntessuay said the policy of her 'Majesty's government had been unchanged through 'out. They desired to put an end to the state of :things in Crete consistently with tho just rights of 'the Porte. I. The Duke of ARGYLL said the policy of the go tvernment had isolated this country from all other !powers as regarded the Porte. They had addressed inotes,.not only of advice but of thresh, to the Port in which her Majesty's government had re ' fused to join. He was fully sensible of the wise and prudent conduct of Lord Stanley, but he I thought the case of the Cretans had been re tgarded with indifference by her Majesty's govern ' went. 1. The Earl of DENBIGH expressed similar opinions. The Earl of KIMBERLEY strongly praised the policy of Lord Stanley. Earl llussut. said he was glad the government • had neither aided nor taken part in the inter ference of the other powers, which was intended as a blow to the integrity of Turkey. The London Coal and Wine Duties Continuance Bill was read a third time and passed. Earl GRANVILLE spoke in warm terms of the I munificence of Mr. Whitworth in offering to endow scholarships for the promotion of mechanical !education, and said he trusted that this magni ficent sot would realise all the wishes of its patriotic donor. . The Duke of MARLBOROUON expressed similar sentiments. Mr. Whitworth had suggested the right method for the manufacturing interests of the ,country to adopt with a view of difigaing technical (education. It was not desirable for the govern ment to interfere uuduly, but they were _quite :resslv to do all in their power to aid Mr. Whit !worth, who he believed would retain control of the fund during his life time. The house adjourned at half-past seven. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—FRIDAY, Arm 3. IN the Homin of COMMONS, Mr. DISRAELI said • ho last night acceded to a suggestion of Mr. Glad stone's that the motion for the adjournment over the holidays should be made after the division ; but representations had been made to him from 'various quartets that it was better that the motion should be made at once. Assuming for a moment. which, however, was very unreasonable—that there was a majority for going lino committee on the resolutions, he should be content that the house should go into committee pro formd, the discussion 'to be taken after the holidays. The financial state ment was Sled for the Thursday after the house reassembled, and it was undesirable to interfere with that arrangement. He should, therefore, iproposo that the resolutions should be taken on the following Monday, the 27th, and he should offer to them an unequivocal oiiposition. He moved that the house at its rising adjourn until the 20th instant. Mr. Gut:moss said he should not insist on the understanding come to last night. As Monday and Tuesday might prove insufficient for the discussion, nothing would be gained by commencing it. The motion was than agreed to. The adjourned debate on the Irish church esta blishment was resumed by Mr. COLISIDO 6, who said ho desired to discuss this matter from an English churchman's point of view, and to show that there was nothing moon 'latent in one who had lived and hoped to die in the communion of the church of England striving with all his heart to disestablish and disendow the church of Ireland. He maintained that parliament had as clear and as full a right to deal with the 'lrish church as with any other institution. This case must bo tried by the ordinary rules, and if the Irish church wore to be defended at all, it must be defended by the ordinary arguments. Could it be so defended 1 Whether it could or not, the course of this debate afforded little 'means of answering the question. They had heard nothing like a defence of the Irish church estab slishment as it existed in ISO. After the battle of the I:oyne the Irish church was supported by penal laws which were a disgrace to this nation, and to which history afforded no precedent. Those laws had away, but they wore not forgot ten, and i ci lls? i i stitution which was the cause of ;them still remained ; and so long as we kept it up lit would interfere with our prosperity at home and 'abroad. Mr. Esalsrofin lion denied that the Irish had :any substantial grievance in the Irish church, though he admitted that the Roman catholic clergy iin Ireland had a grievance, in so far that their Iposition was a great deal more precarious than it ought to be. He insisted that this was an attack ,upon the English as well as the Irish establiah ment. • Mr. STANSF&LD said the Irish policy of the go vernment was catholic endowment as the price of protestant ascendancy. The protestant church esta blishment was an indefensible institution; it did not fulfil any of the objects of a state church. The Earl of MAYO said the government had never swerved from the conviction that it was their duty to maintain the protestant church establish ment in Ireland. He did not deny the competency of parliament to deal with the question, but he contended that it was so important a question that the opinion of the country ought to be taken upon it before legislation. No property was more strongly guaranteed by parliament than that of the Irish church, and it ought not to be interfered with. The voluntary system did not exist in Ire land. Ho went further, and submitted that voluntaryism was unsuitable for that country. The effect of these resolutions would be to increase absenteeism. What the country wanted was peace; but these resolutions would bring no peace. . - Colonel Gasvn.Ls said the bane of Ireland had been protestant ascendancy, and nothing would make her tranquil but religious equality. Sir C. LANYON next addressed the house against, and Sir T. LLOYD in favour of the resolutions. VISCOIUIt HAMILTON maintained that the pro testant church in Ireland had been a blessing to the community at large, and he said he would j o i n th e gentry and people in the north of Ireland in resist vilg this revolutionary proposal to the utmost. Mr. CANDWILL pointed out that the views of the !Foreign Secretary, the Homo Secretary, and the tSecretary for Ireland were inconsistent ; and he railed for an explanation of w h a t was th e real po licy of the government. The Irish c h urc h rema i ned the church of the few for whom it was established ; {and the many who were without itspale at the com mencement were without it still. We had been asked whether wo would stand it, or whether our colonies would stand it. We had found it neces sary to allow Canada to take her own course with regard to her church endowments, and should we proclaim to Ireland that she wastobo worse treated than a colony Mr. Dissazu said the government might have met this question which has been brought forward suddenly, by moving the previous question, and it might have been prudent three years ago to have adopted - that course ; but he did not think it was so under the present circumstances. Then they might hare met it by a direct negative, but this would have been to imply that no modification or improvement in the church of Ireland was desir able, and that was not their opinion. The third course was to move an amendment, and that course ,thl t hat adopted An amendment had been moved ,_Dy Force Secretary which had been subject Inimn criticmun, as amendments always were. He reme asst mbered Sir Robert Peel laying down the Here re attempt to express your policy in en amendment." He denied the moral competeney of parliament to deal with this question, not be cause this was * moribund parliament, but because when the fundamental laws of the country were called in question their constituents ought to have some intimation of what they ware doing . But he appealed to the house whether their con. stitnents had been at all consulted on the subject. He had never contended that the articles of union were irreversible ; but it was preposterous that they should be asked to reverse such solemn 011211i manta at eight days' notice. Nu one could deny that the propositions of the right hon. gentleman were vast and violent. Why this change ? Upon that point they had no satisfaction. Perhaps (continued the right honourable gentleman) I ought to notice the remarks that were made by the noble lord the member for Stamford. (Cheers and conntercheers.) The noble lord found in this amendment, of which I have given to the house * plain history--(laughter)--I say the plain sad the true history—(more laughter)—the noble lord found great cane for distrust and want of confident.e in the language of this amendment. (Hear, hear.) He saw immediately that we were about to betray the trust with which he deems we are invested. The tads lord at no time is wanting in imputing to us being influenced by not the most amiable motives—((laughter)—that can regu late the conduct of public men. I will not quarrel with the invective of the noble lord. The noble lord is a man of great talent—(cheers)—there is vigour in his invective—(opposition cheers)—and there is DO want of vindictiveness. (Ministerial cheers.) I confess l ant now only speaking as • critic, and perhaps not an impartial one, that I think it wants finish. (Cheers and laughter.) Considering that the noble lord has studied the subject, and that be has written anonymous articles against it—(" Oh, oh," front Mr. flandford)—before I was his colleague and since I was his colleague— I do not know whether he wrote them when I was his colleague— (" Oh, oh" again from Mr. Sandford, and ones of " order")—l think it might have been accomplished more ad unguen. But the only objection which I have to the noble lord is this ; there is one thing which he has never pardoned, and that is the Reform Act of last year. (Hear, hear.) Now, I put it to the house what would have been the general state of affairs if the counsels of the noble lord upon this subject had prevailed, instead of the suggestions which I made, and which the house adopted! Now that we are free from the beat and greetdif ankles and perplexities of the last session, and can take, I hope, a fair view of what has ocieurred, I would express my opinion that the act of last year was a most beneficent andnoble act—(laughter)—and I look with no apprehen sion whatever to the appal which will be made to the people under the conditions of that act. I believe you will have a parliament returned to this house Lull of patriotic feeling and national sentiment, whose decisions will add spirit to the community strength to the state. Sir, the oily objection I have to these attacks of the noble lord is that they invariably pro duce an echo from the other side. (Hear, hear.) That seams to me to be now almost • parliamentary law. When the bark is heard from this side, the right hon. gentle man the member for edits emerges, I will not say from his cave—(loud laughter)—but perhaps from • more cynical habitation—(renewed laughter)—and joins immediately in the chorus o? reciprocal malignity. (Laughter.) The right hon. gentleman—l forget the line, but it is in • favourite poet who has been quoted in this house— " wails his monstrous melody to the moon." (Laughter.) The right hon. gentleman has been extremely analytical upon the amendment of the government moved by my noble friend, and his zig-zag commentary founded on an assumption of circumstances that never occurred, and on motive. that neverinfluenced, wits amusing at the moment; but howfar does that commentary agree with tbestatement, the teal statement which I have given of the cause and origin of this amendment. The right hon. gentleman was ex , thornily exuberant in his comments upon my character and career. Sir, I will not trouble the house with a defense of that character and career. (Cheers.) I have lived in this house more than 30 years, and I can truly say that during that time comments upon that character and career have been tolerably free and plain. But the house has been the jury of my life, and it allows me to address them. now, therefore here is not the place in which I think it necessary to vindicate myseU. (Loud cheers.) The right hon. gentleman the member for Caine is • very remarkable man. He is a learned man, although he despises history—(laughter)--land what is more remark- Ale than even his learning or his logic, is that power of spontaneouo aversion which he always displays. (Renewed laughter.) There is nothing that he likes, and almost everything that he hates. He hates the working classes of England. He hates the Roman catholic. of Ireland. He bates the protestant. of Ireland. He hates her Majesty's ministers— (laughter)—and until the right hon. gentleman the member fur South Lawmanre placed his hand upon the ark, he seemed to me almost to hate the right hon. gentleman. (Renewed laughter.) But now all is peace. Now we have " the hour and the man." (Cheers and laughter.) But I believe the clock goes wrong and the man is not here. (Laughter.) I shall now ask the attention of the house to the proposition before us. If I have for a moment trespassed upon your attention, you will allow me to say that it has been in fair self-defence. (Cheers.) I have never attacked any one in my life—('ironical cheers, and cries of "Peel" from the opposition)—unless I was first assailed. (Cheers and laughter.) _ _ _ . He did not believe in an Irish crisis, as in terpreted by Mr. Gladstone ; but this he would say, that the condition of Ireland was not entirely satisfactory. Mr. Glad stone drew on the history of seven centuries. What could they do when a great statesmen came like a thief in the night, and brought forward such vast premises to draw his conclusions from They must take general news. The condition of Ireland was now much better than it was before the Union. The people were more prosperous, and in the en joyment of greater social and political rights. He denied that the Irish were a conquered race any more than the English, or that the Irish church was a badge of conquest. Why was the church in Ireland more a badge of conquest than the church of England was a badge of conquest to a dissenter ? His policy towards Ireland had been a policy of conciliation. The principle of their policy in Ireland had been to create, and not to destroy, and they could not strengthen the protestant in terest more than by doing justice to the Roman catholic. The proposition to create a catholic university in Ireland was in furtherance of that policy. They had endeavoured to con ciliate creeds and populations. But Mr. Gladstone proposed a change that would outrage the feelings and sentiments of a large and influential class of the population. Had the protestants of Ireland no regard to their church, and were their feelings not to be regarded But the policy recommended by Mr. Gladstone involved issues much more important than the government of Ireland. What would be the effect on the property of the country ! There were abbeys in Ireland and England not enjoyed by abbots. Under no circumstances must the pro perty of the church of Ireland be devoted to a se cular purpose, which was always a job. What would be the consequence of Mr. Gladstone's pro poaition : The policy of conciliation would be gone, for protestant ascendancy there would be substituted Papal supremacy, and all that they had attempted for years was to be obliterated. Govern ment without religion was difficult, if not impos sible, and how could they connect government with religion except by establishment f Were they prepared to say that government in Ireland was to be disconnected with religion. If they adopted that principle for Ireland why not adopt it for Scotland, where the kirk was also in a minority? The crisis in England was now coming. The Roman catholic' and the high ritualists, who had long been secretly in union, were now in open confederacy. They had their hand almost upon the realm of England, under the guise of liberalism ; they were about to seize on the supreme power of the realm, but he would oppose them to the utmost of his ability. Their policy, of which Mr. Glad stone was the exponent, would deprive the sub jects of her Majesty of some of their privileges, and was dangerous even to the tenure of the crown. Mr. GLAnsrorrs then rose, amid loud cheers from his supporters. After attributing some of 1 the observations of Mr. Disraeli to • heated im agination, he proceeded to reply to some of the points raised in the debate. He ridiculed the fears expressed of the irritating effecta of this change on the minds of the protestant., and pointed to the numerous successful instances of disestablishment. Mr. Disraeli's arrament that a fundamental law of the country could not be dealt with by parliament 1 without reference to the constituencies, he described as ultra-democratic, if not anarchical. He did not conceal his intention to separate church from state in Ireland and that he argued was the most effectual mode of preserving what Mr. Disraeli called the connection between govern ment and the religious principle. And to the objection that this would lead to the destruction of the English church, Mr. Gladstone replied that each establishment must stand on its own merits, and the Irish establishment could not be maintained by its applicability to England. Exa mining the varying declarations of the Premier, the Home Secretary, and the . Irish Eleoretalty, EXPRESS, SATURDAY EVENING, _.,APRIL 4, _ 1868. and extracting from it the oonolusion that tik plan wee to endow the catholic church, he empha tically condemned it as too late, and contrary to the sense of Zngiand and Scotland , and repudiated by the Irish catholic"' themselves Replying to Mr Roebuck's inquiry whether ho was prepared with a bill, he disclaimed heartily the idea of " huddling the question up in an abstract resolu tion," and he pointed to the second and third reso lutions as a proof that it was not intended once again to mock the people of Ireland with idle words. The remainder of the night's proceedings were as follows Mr. NEWDEOATE (who roes amidst loud cries of " Oh, oh !") said he should vete against the motion for going into committee ; and he altogether protested against the transference of any part of the funds sow httd by th. Irish branch of the united states—(laeghter)—of the united church to any other church whatever. The SPEAKER then put the question that the words proposed to be left out—namely, that the house should immediately resolve itself into committee—stand part of the qnsition. There was a loud shout of " Aye r' and-an almost equally loud shout of " No !" The house then divided— Ayes 330 Noes 270-430 The amendment wu consequently lost The announce ment of the numbers was received with loud and pro longed cheering from the opposition benches. The SPEAKER then put the question—" That the house resolve itself into committee to consider the acts relating to the Irish church." The house spin divided on the question that the house go into committee. The numbers were— For going into committee . 323 Against 272-56 The announcement was received with loud cheer'. The question that the Speaker leave the chair was then put and carried, and the Speaker having left the chair, The resolutios was read, and on the motion of Mr. GLADBTONI, the Chairman immediately reported progress. The otherbusiness on the paper having been disposed of, the house adjourned shortly after three o'clock, the mem bers on the liberal ride giving aloudohier as they departed. Zl=Ni, = hi brir— as. S.

William Dawidls, decently-dressed men of about 30 years of age, wee charged before Sir Thomas Henry with being on the premises at the Charing-cross Terminus of the South Eastern Railway for the purpose of committing larceny. . _ Sergeant Mon chton ,tlte detective officer !specially attached to the station, deposed that he saw the prisoner sitting in the first-class waiting room at about twenty minutes to 8 o'clock. Ho remained there till 8 o'clock. The witness asked him what he was doing there. He said he was going toaLondon.bridge. Witness asked him what he was doing there the previous day ? He replied that be had mine from London-bridge. Witness said that could not be true, as he had seen him come in from the Strand. He replied, "Yes. I came from London-bridge about 9 o'clock, and then went into the Strand and made a call in the neighbourhood. I returned here at a little after eleven o'clock." Witness observed, "Yes, and stopped an hour." The prisoner said, "I am going to London bridge now." Witness said, " Very well. I will see you take your ticket." The prisoner hesitated, and witness said, " I am not satisfied with your story at all ; I shall tele youjto the inspector's office." He did so, and on searching the prisoner found that he had not • single penny in his possession. Witness then took him into custody. He gave an address in Mount-gardens, which turned out to be correct, but he also gave another address in Horselydown, on inquiry at which witness I found that he had formerly lived there, but bad left in the landlord's debt to the extent of 41. 10s. The prisoner said he had • situation in the em. ployment of • well-known firm in the Oity, but on inquiry witness found that it was not true, and that, in point of fact, he had never even made any application for employment there. At the station-house he stated that he was • Welshman. Upon him was found • pocket-book and two lockets. Witness had repeatedly seen him at the station, but never saw him arrive or depart by a train. Sir Thomas Henry said that this was a strong ease of suspicion. It was evident that the prisoner had no inten tion to go by the train, for, though he was in a first-class waiting-mom, implying that he was a passenger by that class, yet it seemed that he had not even the money to pay for a third-dais ticket. The waiting.roorns were for the use of passengers only, and not of idlers. Robberies ware frequently committed by persons banging about the station, and it . was with the ge t test w difficul na ty that the Co li t ce t?l fn e * a l ie a e tt ee. ach t t lt t o il l:l d remands ta tion egee prisoner leto ter further inquiry. PBSPLEING FOWLS FOR THE MARK ET. —At the Whitchareh (Salop) petty sessions on Friday a dealer, named Fletcher wss brought up on remand charged with shocking cruelty to a fowl. From the evidence of the Rev. John Evans, incumbent of Whixall, it appeared that in pat the house of the defendant, who was one of his ners, he found him sitting down with a live tween his knees, coolly plucking the feathers off it. The fowl was quivering at every pull, but on Mr. Evans remonstrating with him, Fletcher replied that it did not hart it, and continued the process. For the defence, Fletcher said he had first bled the fowl by cutting its throat, which was his ordinary practice*, " but fowls would sometimes Rep and struggle if they were plucked before they were cold." He called a poulterer named Thomas Iburbead, who deposed that he was in • large way of bust. w^ and that be was in the habit of killing between 5,000 and 6,000 fowls par week. He always plucked them in the same way se Fletcher had done. A letter was read from the Secretary of the Society for the Preven tion of Cruelty to Animals, who had been communi cated with It magistrates, and who stated thatch' prac tice of pine • the feathers from birds whilst alive was followed with object of making them appear plumper when sent to market. The defendant was convicted, and lined 10s. and costs, with the alternative of 14 days' ini prineement. PR071116011 MAI7ILICI'ff LECTURE ON MELEON. Ow Tuesday evening the Rev. F. D. Maurice, ILA., de livered a lecture on " Milton" in the Weigh-house chapel before a numerous audience. The lecture was one of a muse is connection with the Weigh-houes Young Men's Society. The Rev.

Professor Maurice, who was reesived with load cheers, his lecture by readingWordsworthh poem ("Milton! thou shouldsl be living at this hoar"), saying that be had several reasons fee ialroduchtg the words he had to speak on Milton with that noble sonnet. He did not protein agreement with all the opinions of Milton • but he did not are to express his dissent.

A very booty vote of thanks was given to Mr. Maurice on the conclusion of the lecture. Carnal. PAratn. Ole SNELLING DAY.

The attendance at Bedford to-day was considerably in excess of that of yesterday, the prestige of the Grand National Steeplechase inducing a more iutluential ring, as well as attracting a larger attendance of the public gene rally. The weather was again fine. Father tiLealy, the favourite for the big race of Thursday, was again the chosen of the talent ; but it was a narrow squeak, as he only won on the post by • head from the lent-fancied of three runners, St. Jean. The Grand National, which was appointed for decision at 2 o'clock, brought 14 runners to the post, The Lamb, AloibiaJe, and Captain Crosstree,the first fl ight in " The Liverpool " Meetin g , t o fi g ht their battle o'er again. "The Captain" was in receipt of 101bs from The Lamb, whilst Alcibiade, the third in the Grand National, was actually conceding 31ba to hi s vi c t or at Liverpool. The meeting of The Doctor and The Lamb was looked forward to with considerable interest, anil The Doctor, who was conceding 31ba to Lord Poulett's repre sentative, had the call. The most noteable absentee was Avenay, who was struck out at • quarter of an hour before the nos was run, owing to the inability of his owner, the Duke of Hamilton, to get six " monkeys " to one about him. The race was won very easily by Al brighton from The Doctor, King Arthur being third, and Tiger fourth. Musketeer, when going remarkably well, fell in • " grip " after cle aring the last fence, and broke his back, and was put out of pain at once. Captain Cross tree also came to grief, peeling the skin from his near fore leg and exp osing the tendons, and be was forth with ,track out of all his engagements, Daisy and Emperor 111, also fell, but received no injury. Atalanta carried Mr. Barber's somewhat unfortunate colours to the fore in the Selling Handicap, and was sold to Mr. F. G. Hobson for 80 guineas. Joseph, with slight odds on him, won the Volunteer Cup ; and Savannah at length managed to win e/ ••ra ki ce the Stewards' Plate, with which the meeting con sa A HUNTERS' STEEPLECHASE Of 5 More, each, with 40 added ; unplaoed home in the Grand National Hunt allowed 51b.

Nothing elm of oonesquence transpired in connection with this event. For the Derby, Lady Ellmbeth was slightly better, as there were offers to take 100 to 15, but the highest quotation was 6 to 1.

There has, however, only be t limited business to extreme advance, which spinner mend, holding buyers a good deal in cheek. Spinner, fact, scarcely know what to demand, because of the rr springs which are made from time to time in the tcr the raw material, and the betrayal of inch a fn . . naturally toperates as an obstacle to large and free op. time. These yarns are fully 2,1. higher than oo Friday. The cloth market has been much less sans.. than that for yarn. The advancing prices of and the firmness with which spinuers exact e. terms compel manufacturers to adhere very stm t . ; to their quotations, and even to advance t But as to business a large quantity of resale lots of e which are offering at prices much below the present c of production, have commanded the chief attentiot, buyers to-day, and firm such lots merchants bare able to make nearly all the purchases they have been posed to make today. In such goods there has ben fair business done, at paces fully a shilling per piece Sib. shootings, and proportionally for other fabriss) b e l t the rates manufacturers were willing to accept. This re demand has necessarily imported very great uncertam I to price., and is causing much irregularity in the qu dons of producers. Manufacturers of India cloth arc the position today that they have to pay more fir t 32's twist entering so largely into the fabrication of than they can get for the cloth after the east of ennui turing it. The destruction of the large mill of Mr. Arr. smith, at Bolton, by fire, is said to have been alter with the loss, at the same time, of nine months' supply cotton which had been purch ased for the completion contracts. WOOL 'AND WORSTED.—BRADFORD, Arra Sympathising to some extent with the buoyant tone of i Liverpool cotton market, there is a pretty cheerful fee:. pervading the wool market to-day, although there is re no great amount of business done. Spinners have of 1.;: * supplied themselves pretty freely with wool, and are fins holding aloof. Quotations of staples have again canoed, but them is great reluctance to yield present r.,• and the advance sought in readily obtained. 11, F+7, I Louis aad Son, wool brokers, Lave held a large sale n- English and other wools this afternoon.
