e 4 IMPERIAL I'ABLUAWT. BOUSE OF LORDS.—THURSDAY, An= 23. Earl RUSSELL move d the third reodieg of the Com- i pulseey Church Rates Abolition Bill. He detailed at some length the various provisions of the bill, and stated that it had received the general meant of the Commons. The Doke of BUCKINGHAM thought that if the go vernment called upon the House to reject the bill there would be found ample ground to condemn it. Under the eironmetanoes, however, they should not feel justified in this, but they would ask the house to place the measure in the hands of a select oommittee. The Bishop of LONDON would not oppose the sewed reading of the bill. Indeed he regretted that the ques tion had not been set at rest by some such measure eight years ago, when there was a good opportunity for such • settlement. The bill, however, required amendment, and he thought the wisest course was to refer it to a select committee. There was a very anxious feeling among the clergy of the established church as to the measures which might be introduced in the future, and which might affect the very existence of the establishment, and though clergymen had hitherto refrained from mixiug themselves up with party politics, still, if they thought the establish ment was in danger, there might be great difficulty in persuading them to use their pulpits end their influence solely for the sacred purpose which belonged to them. It was essential that matters affecting the church establishment should be dealt with very care fully and calmly. The Archbishop of CANTERBURY thought it would be idle for anyone to oppose the seco nd reading, seeing that the government were not prepared to oppose it, but he could not assent to the principle of the measure. The Earl of DERBY objected to the bill, whist' he con tended was no compromise at all, as bed been alleged, but was an absolute and entire surrender on the part of the church. The only reason for agreeing to the mond read ing, and that an insufficient one, was that the bill had met with the general approval of the House of Commons. The object, not of those who 7propmed the bill, but of those who were behind the scenes, warn the abrogation of all church establishments, leaving nothing but the volun tary principle behind, and placing the church of England on a level with all other recta and denominations in the country. The Earl of CARNARYON supported the bill, thinking that a safeguard wee found in the provision that those who did not pay the rate were precluded from inter ference. The Archbishop of YORK should vote for the second reading, but thought the bill should be consithred by a select committee. The debate was continued by Lord Colchester, Earl Grey, the Bishop of Oxford. the Lord Chancellor, the Earl of Hardwicke, and the Marquis of Both ; after which the bill was read a second time. The Inclosure Bill and the Medical Practitioners (Clauses) Bill were read a third time and passed. The house adjourned at a quarter to 9 o'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS--THrEsnar, Arm 23. Lord STANLEY, replying to a question from lir. Akroyd, stated that a treaty of peace ham recently been issued between Spain and Prussia on the part of the Ger- I man Confederation. but as he had not yet obtained a oopy of the treaty he was not enabled to state what the provi sions are, but as goon as he does receive a copy he will take steps to make them public. THE BUDGET. The house having resolved itself into committee of ways and means, The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER proceeded to make the annual financial statement. He said the elasticity of the revenue during the year that had just passed had not equalled that of recent years, but eon tickling the bad harvest and the recent commercial crisis, he might on the whole, congratulate the house on the financial condition of the country. The estimated revenue for the year made on the 4th April, 1867, was 69,130,000/., and the supplemental estimate made in No vember was 840,0004, making • total of 69,970,033'. The actual receipts were 69,663,000/., being 307,00 W. below the amount estimated. He then compared the receipts of 1868 with three of the previous year. In 1866-7 the total receipts were 69,434,000/.; in 1847-8, they were 69,663,0001., showing au increase in 1867-8 of 129,0001. Bat in 1867 there were some extraordinary receipts, 230.0001. for China indemnity, and 500,000/. for New Zealand Bonds, and taking thew into account mid deducting the loss by the re duction in the duty on marine insurances, the real ineresse in the revenue last year was about 808,000/., which, under all the circumstances, he considered was a satisfactory in crease. The receipts were from— Excise . . 20,162,000 Statops 9,541,000 Taxes • ••• ••• :1.518,000 Cronerty and tacome-tax... ... 6,177,000 Poat-office ... 4,630,000 Crown lands 345,000 The total expenditure was 71,236,242/. as against an esti mated expenditure of 71,267,000 x., and as the expenditure of 1865-7 was 64780,0001., there was en increase of expen diture in 1867.8 over 1866.7 of 4.453,000/., of which 2,000,000/. was attributable to the Abyminien expedition. It would be remembered that in November last they estimated that there would be a defi ciency of 960,0001., and to meet that deficiency an additional income tax of one penny in the pound for the year or twopence for the half year, was imposed, and they estimated that that would• give them a surplus of 200,0001. That estimate had not been realised, and the deficiency had been met out of the balances in the exche quer. He now came to the expenditure of 1868-9, which, exclusive of the charge for the Abyssinian expedition, he estimated as follows: Interest of the debt tither charges on the Consoli dated Fund Artily 1:26,700,000 1,865,000 15,436,000 11,177,000 9,173,040 4,964,000 1,00,0C° Civil Berrie. ... Revezne departmeat Poet-office packet service 170,428.000 The greater part of the apparent increase in the estimates was duo to a different mode of taking account., an ant having been paroled requiring that extraordinary receipts which were applied to the expenditure of the department' should all be paid into the exchequer, and the result was an apparent greater expenditure. The real fact was that there was an increase of only 10,0001. in the navy and ‘210,0001. in the army. In the civil tarries, estimates there was also an increase of over 400,0001., but that was mainly attributable to the inereased vote for education. The receipts for the year, assuming the tea duty to be con tinued, and taking the income-tax at 4d., he estimated as follows: Customs Eloise • • Stamp* Taxes I '!:;;`! 9 ..ty and income-tax, in cluding the matte . Poet-office. . . Crown lands Miscellaneous . £'22,800,000 90,:115,000 .. 9,656,000 3,A0,000 . 0,900,000 .. 41.50.000 . .1.1"0.000 3,130.000 Total £71,330,000 Taere was, therefore, a mph, on the you of 022,0001, the whole of which, and something over, was due to the arrears of the iaeome•ts:. But tilde was, irrespective of the Abyssinian expedition. They had estimated that 2,000,000/. would be enfacient to place the army on the shores of Abyssinia, and they bad no reason to suppose that that estimate had been exceeded. It was also esti mated that Vibe expedition hated till the end of April the expenditure would be from 3,600,000/. to 4,600,0004 ; but since then they had learned that the supplies to be obtained from the oonntry itself were lets thanked bean anticipated, and it was now estimated that the amount required from the commencement of 1868 would be 600,000/. per month dazing the time that the expedition lasted, and so thus anticipated, that it would last till the sad of May, that would would make Os months, which, at that rate, would be 3,000,0001. altogether, which was the sum to be provided for. If this expenditure was of anything hut a temporary nature he should have felt it his duty to have proposed a tax on articles of consumption, but under the circumstances he prorated to meet it by an increase in the income tax. My an addition of 2d. in the pound they would obtain 2,900,000/., but as they would only be able to collect 1,800,000/. of that within the Yew be proposed to tales power to raise 1,000,0001. * the issue of exabsquer hoods to be repaid out of the proceeds of the additional tax now imposed, which would be ittalissted after the expiration of the 'year. This would leave a tAiir c 4 Axiliek_tiiiiiillaw MOW* 44 1 118Pliiii Vet surplus of 722,0001. over the exploditure. He eimehrdedV by josposiag • Inseletion centinuing the d itty so tea. Mr. GLADSTONE considered that the prep:whim which the Chancellor of the Exchequer had made was • sound ona. The impression out of deem was thet they wee Wiest to impose additional %sadism be esseecimme of the Ahmeinian war. That immesh& was arrenwrim It wee in consequence of the enlarged ordinary even& rum, which, setting aside the latereet for the debt, and the charges on the consolidated fluid, had increased from 35,165,0001. in 18667 to 41,1183,0051. in 1869-9.

BARING disapproved of the Morisse ot. the income-tax and would have preferred en barrow of 5 per omit on the customs duties. Mr. AYTOUN condemned the policy of borrowing to pay off debt as was done in the we of the terminable an- nuities. Sir W. MAXWELL thought the tax on shepherd's dogs should be repealed. Mr. HUBBARD expressed • general approval of the budget Mr. WHITE called attention to the disproportiorately heavy taxation of the working elutes. Mr. CHILDERS pointed out that there was always a surplus while the late government was in office, but the expenditure had ineremed 2,700,000/. 6 year under the present government. Sir S. NORTHCOTE explained that the cost of 400,0001. • month for transports would not be continuous, inasmuch as the army bad stores in Abyssinia to Lost till I November. . Ur. FAWCETT warned the house against attempting to rival continental nations in military expenditure. The discussion was continued by Mr. li'Larsn, Mr. D. Griffith, and Mr. Alderman Salomon', after which the resolution was agreed te, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer stated that the other consequent resolutions would be brought on on Monday week. The Ecclesiastical Commissioners Orders in Council Bill passed through committee. The United Parisi es (Scotland) Bill was read a second time.

Though cotton is again up, the wool market continues very quiet. This is to be accounted for from the fact that during the past few weeks an immense businea has been done in wool, and moat spinners have supplied their wants fur some time to come ; the transactions today an ocosequently very restricted. Quotations, eapecially for all good wools, are generally extremely firm, though there are some holders who aro rather better to deal with. There continues to be good business done in worsted yarns. Two-fold yarns, foe which there has been. an extraordinary demand of late, are actually dearer to day ; but some of the quotations are intended to be In hibitive, in oonsequence of spinners being fully employed for some time to come. There is rather rues, business doing in single yarns, but the operations are confined to small lots. The German merchants seem to be waiting the result of Leipsio fair, which has just commenced, though the requirements for that quarter have been anti. psted. In single yarns the extreme quotations are abated. The spinnen of lustre yarns are busy. There is also a good demand for carded yarns as well as for 40's single, for the house trade. Some slight business has been done for Russia, the season for which isjust opening. There is a alight lull in the piece trade. W ith the exception that the American merchants ere looking round and doing a very traling business, there is no change of any moment to report. The Americans operate with great caution, but the fact of their being fn the market after so long an ab. ' sence tends to create confidence. Wherever manufactu rers bolding stocks are willing to accept recent rates, they may realise. The present ls "between seasons." Some massif/securers, however, are already showing their novel ties in Lucy goods. The horns trade Is sink. Owing to the firintiedi in cotton warps and the high price of wool goods are continually getting dearer, notwithstanding the quieter tone prevailing.

(Before Lord Janke Cockburn and Bans Bramwell.) [The following appeared in our third edition last evening.] The Lord Chief Justice.—l understand that is your case Mr. Attorney-Generol. What have you to show against Ann Justin:.! The Attorney-General.—What I have already stated, my lord. The Lord Chief Justice—With the exception of her being seen loitering about the prison with Timothy Desmond and Allen, there is nothing to show her complicity. With regard to the statement elleged to have been made to Vaughan, that she supplied the information, there can be no truth in it. An attempt was made on the 12th, and as much was known then as on the 13th. I don't see why she should be kept in custody, and I shall therefore advise the jury to return a verdict of Not Guilty. The jury complied with his Lordship's request, and Anne Justice was then liberated. Before leaving the dock else affectionately shook hands with each of the primers. Mr. Montagu Williams then applied that eke should be discharged from eneedy. 'The Lard Chief Justice said that these were several other charges against the woman Anne Justice, and the court could not make an order for her discharge until those charges had been disposed of. Mr. Williams then submitted to the court that there really was no evidence to support the charge against O'Keefe, and be inquired whether their lordships emu dered that it was necessary for him to address the jury on behalf of that prisoner? The Lord Chief Justice said lie could not take upon himself to say that them was no evidence against the prisoner O'Keefe, but he would not oak the learned counsel to address the court on his behalf at present, and be would sugrst to the Attorney-General to take an oppor tunity of considering the evidence that related to the prisoner O'Keefe, and decide whether he ought to press the charge against him. The Attorney-General acid that he should certainly adopt his lordship's suggestiou. A discussion then ensued as to the course that should be taken, and Mr. Warner Sleigh, whose duty it became first to address the jury,, said it would be a great personal accommodation to Aim if he were permitted to postpone his address until the following mortung. The Loa Chief Justice mid be should be very unwilling to prom ou the inquiry with undue haste, hut it should not be forgotten that the jury had already been detained for several days, and they ought te receive consideration. Mr. W. Sleigh said that after this intimation from the bench be should not press for a postponement, but should at once proceed with the ease. The learned counsel ac cordingly went on to address the jury on behalf of his client William Desmond. During the address of the learned counsel he asked the permissidn of the court to be allowed to ask Sergeant Cu!., the officer who apprehended the prisoner, a few questions relating to him, and this was permitted to be done. Sergeant Cole, in answer to t h e questions put to him by the learned counsel, said he bad known the prisone r William Diamond fur some time, and ho considered him a hard w irking man. He was married, and was living respectably, and when he went to apprehend him upon the present charge, he said he knew nothing about the matter, and expressed his readiness to accompany him anywhere. Air. Warner Sleigh then went on to urge upon . the jury that it was not probable a man such as the prisoner was desoribed to be would have joined in an outrage of this dascriptinn, and he ooutended that the charge bad been trumped up by the two informers, Mullany and Vaughan, in the hope of getting themselves out of trouble, and ob taining a portion of the reward that had been offe red.: The learned counsel concluded a very able speech by telling the jury that, according to the law of England, the prose. coition were bound to make out conclusively the guilt of the party accused, and that if any reasonable doubt existed, the prisoner was entitled to the benefit of that doubt, and ought to be acquitted. Mr. Macdonold, just before the court adjourned, re newed en app/Witten he had made previously to the Re corder, for the court to make an order that the solicitors of the prisoner Berke, who is charged with treason-felony, should be permitted to see him at other times titan these allotted by the regulations of the gaol. Ho said that many fresh facts of great importance to the prisoner Burke had come out in the coarse of the present trial, and it was absolutely necessary for the interests of the prisoner that ' I.is professional advisers should have greater facilities of conferring with him than were afforded by the riles of the gaol. The Lord Chief Justice said that he did not like to in terfere with the regulations of a prison unless very good grounds were shown for his doing so In the present instance the charge had bean limier investigation for many months, and the trial could not, under any circum stances, come on before next Monday, and he thought there would be ample opportunity for the prisoner's pro fessional advisers to commis:dente with bins. He was in formed that three hours and a half were allowed every day for the purpose. Mr. Gifford, Q.c., said be gathered from what had fallen from his lordship that he did not intend, under any circumstances, to premed with the indictment against Burke and the other prisoners charged with enema felony before Monday. The Lord Chief Juatioe said he did not see how it was possible to do so. He was informed that witnesses would be called, at all evens, for one of the prisoners is the preemie The court then adjourned until this morning, when the counsel for the remaining prisoners will address the jury.

(Letter of Horns of the 18th of (Maher reed.) She received that letter. Observed the repealing. Thought nothing of the expressiou, "Worthy el yew love. She wrote to him on the 13th of October se follows :—“Now, my son, I mast ant begin to get awry with yon. How could eon possibly take a cold balk which lam sure is the worst thing you could do. . . . You must excuse me if I tell you at our first acquaintance I rather felt a repugnance towards you when you said. Mother, I shall so love you.' I said, and drew away from you, The lees of that the baiter ; I shall love year child.' Now I am quite altered. I feel s anxious on your amount, and afraid yea should be ill, or anythhog should happen to you," he. Believed that her husband kid told her he was his son, and therefore she felt • mother's regard for him. She wrote to Wilkinson the letter of the 9th November, asking I him to draw • will in Home's favour. Every word in that letter was dictated by Dan in a trance (erophatically)—not copied. It was dictated on the Bth of November, after half-past nine o'clock. Dan took it away. He had a handkerchief over his eyes. He wished her to write, and she did. She /et an answer from Wilkinson. Did not remember writing any reply. Did notrecolleot anything being dictated on the 10th. Thought that Dan, in a trance told her to burn her will. Being shown the letter of the 10th, in which she told Wilkinson to leave uo blanks io the will, did not know whether this was dictated. Did everythieg under the magnetic influence of Home. (Sensa tion.) The word " only " was struck out. Supposed it was struck out it request of Home and his friends. Could not explain why dictated " Lyon only "in contradiction to his own wish ? Confirmed Wilkineon'a statements as to his conversation before the execution of the will, but said there were about three times as many words there set down as were spoken. She did not speak so strongly. No one had made remarks about her sanity. It was not in consequence of the report of her madness that she had Dr. Hawkidey. Never told Mr. Jencken so, nor Miss Cox, nor Miss Heighten. Had no doctor at that time, nor any porticuLir solicitor. When she made the will she had no dislike to her husband's relations ; she never had, nor did elm ever tell any one so. Did not know Mr. Shorter. Did not remember going to the Athemenni and entail Dan at breakfast, nor Dan reading a newspaper article about her ; nor her saying, ' And a jolly gooil job too, my boy." This interview took place at Westbourne-plans. I She had the are of the book. She tore out part of it Could net say when ; it was about December. She after wards wrote her own narrative in. She kept a truthful loaf in it about the handkerchief. She destroyed it, because it was untruthful and distasteful to ber. Some thing like that she was in love with him. Dan told her not to tear it out. She kept it for a time, and showed it to Shorter. She destroyed the originals. It was copied before Christmas. Dan did not object to Mrs. Pepper's lodgings. There was some allusion to Dan and she living in the same house. Did not know what people might say. She did not think it was proper. Believed such an allu sion was made ; she treated it with contempt. Did not remember whether it was Mrs. Tom Fellow.. who spoke to her about it. A oopy of the letter of the 7th, in which she said she wished to give him " a little surprise," and to add 6,0001. to her former gift. She always tore up the copies. That was en every occasion. She supposed skte understood the words when she waste them. She was then under influence—a mystic influence. She was under such influence that she scarcely knew what she was doing. The draft was spelt out by the spirit Amt. When the knocks came she said. " Yon go too fast ;"but Dan said he knew what was coming before it came. She did not like that ; but it did not open her eyes. She re membered going to the brokers ; and on her return she remembered calling at Mr. Jones's. He was an author—a spiritual anther. Sbe did not remember caressing Home at Jones's officio • certainly riot; it was • falsehood. Denied Mrs. Je;oken's narrative ; and said it was false. Did not say to Home that Mr. Jencken might, as he was a barrister, have offered to draw the deed without a fee. Had no advice from Mr. Jencken. Being shown the letter of the 9th of December, 1866, relative to the transfer of the 6,0001. Consols, mid it was either dictated or copied, she could not say which. Mr. James objecting here to the protracted nature of the examination, The r•`IOII72DIGRIVESV • • • • ~ said, in such a case as this, ho did not think Mr. Matthews's cross-examination either unite- I pessary or unfair. Cross-examination continued—The marginal note strik-' ing out of the draft the words, "Aril all my husband's family and friends are well provided for" WAS in her handwriting. Being shown the letter of the 11th December she said she wrote it under the influence of the medium. Supposed there was no draft of that letter. Did not know whether it was dictated. Bevies Wain aon's answer read to her, she said ninety-nine parts of his statement were not true. Told Wilkinson it was the spirit of her husband that prompted her ; and that it wail net her own act. Wilkinson said. " I don't want to hear anything about the spirits, I want to hear what you want to do yourself." Being shown the letter of the '23rd of Deoember, in which Wilkinson gave her a warning, she said she could not say whether she wrote it from dictation or from a draft ; one or the other, she could not say which. Obeerved upon Wilkinson's letter to her, that they were all got ap for the purpose of the law nit which he said must take place after her death. A series of letters in which she expressed her wish to benefit Home, saying nothing about the spirit of her husband, she said were all written under the same influence. She was not in her right mind—she was spiritually mad no doubt. Being premed as to why she did not speak about her husband's spiritto Wilkinson, she said be toidher repeatedly that she was not to mention the "spirit "to him. She further said she disliked the deed (i.e., the settlement of the 30,000/. after her own death on Home); she disliked the man, and when sbe acted as she bad done she was mad. Denied having called up Clymow, a female servant, at five in the morning to poet a letter, and said she was most on truthfuL The crass-examination was not concluded when the otuurt rose at four o'clock.

Although the muster at the clubs was not over nume rous to-day, several influential speculators were present, and a fair amount of business was got through. For the Two Thousand Guineas, the position of Bosicruoian proved to be much the same as yesterday, 5 to 1 being taken to • small amount, while offers to lay these odds were plenti full, and increased in intensity as the morning wore on, the hone leaving off in very bad odour. Formosa and Pace both offered • marked contrast to the unhealthy ap pearance of the sometime favourite, the offers in each case not exceeding as • rule 11 to 2, while 6 to 1 was taken readily and wanted. Le Suzann was supported at 10 to 1 freely, and the same price was laid spinet Vale Royal, who had decided opposition shown to him in two or three quarters. The great feature of the day was the re appearance of Blue Gown upon the scene, his price being inquired directly banner opened with offers to take 20 to 1, • price that layers declined to concede, and after some little haggling 100 to 6 was laid and taken several times. Simultaneously with this move, Green Sleeve was subjected to considerable hostility, and at one time receded to as much es 100 to 3, but subsequently a certain amount of reaction set in, 100 to 4 and 100 to 5 being taken four or five times, and 100 to 6 representing the final offers. Bandine was in requost at 100 to 6, but no more than 100 to 8 was obtainable. Moslem and St. Ronan weresupported toe considerable extent, atehoutthe same figure each; and • good amount of business was done in favour of Ironmaster at 40 to L For the Cheater Cop Paul Jones and Dalby were in strong demand, while Beauty found friends at 11 to 1. Abergehlie had an im proved look, 20 to 1 meeting with ready takers, and no more than 100 to 6 being offend at the close. For the Derby 400 to 100 was taken on one hand about Lady Elizabeth, and 300 f. was invested on ltosicrucian at 9 to 1, the taker desiring to take another 900 to 100. Speculum was fre quently asked after, and would have been supported at 100 to 9to a good amount, but 10 to 1 was the highest offer obtainable. Pace met with backers at 100 to 8, but, generally speaking, 100 to 7 and 1000 to 70 was stipu- Wed for. Blue Gown made also some stir for this event ; and after vain endeavours to procure • longer price, 1500 to 60 and 1000 to 40 were taken, and business to a much larger extent would have been transacted on these terms, but 20 to 1 became the outride quotation. Tom Bowline colt was again strongly fancied, 1000 to 30, and subsequently 30 to 1, to good money, being booked, *bile 1000 to 40 was taken and wanted about Lord Glasgow's lot. At 45 to 1 and 50 to 1 respectively Le Barman and St. Ronan bad several outlays entrusted to them.
