The LOUD ORANCSLLOR, in met/ the second reading of the Law al Capital Ptinishmen Amendment Bill, stated that the measure had been drawn up in accord ance with the recommendations of • majority of the COM agaioneis who bad been appointed to inquire into the subject. A minority of those commissioners had been in favour of an entire abolition of capital anent, but he concurred with the majority m thinkinS that the retention of the highest penalty for crimes of the blackest dye was accessary for the good of society. After dwelling upon the deterrent effect of capital punish ment. the Lord Chancellor pointed out that murder was punishable by death in almost all countries, the exceptions Ling rare and insignificant. The bill which he now invited the home to sanction divided murders.. into , two classes—murders of the first dwes, wilful and premeditated, which were to be viaited with capital punishment, and murders of the second decree, com mitted under circumstances of a lea' heinous cha racter, for which the extreme penalty should not be inflicted. There were some points upon which at a future stage he should desire to propose amendments, but with the recommendation of the commissioners that executions Mould a future be inflicted in • lose public manner then at t he fully eoneurred, believing that the deterring uence of the puniahment would not be diminished by an avoidance of the shocking scenes which had marked so many executions of late years The Earl of KALIL/ISSUE( said that the English mind would, to a certain degree, be revolted by the idea of secret executions. When a man was sentenced to death the law ought sot to hesitate in asserting its justice before the eyes of men. He felt that if the recommendation were adopted it would not be many years before capital punishment would be given up altogether. (Hear, hear.) At present executions were carried on in the same place, and the lesson, if it was a lemon, was given over and over again to the same persons. He thought that as much as possible executions should take plans in the locality where the crime was committed, not only because it would produce a strong effect on the persons residing in that locality, but that it would add to the punishment of the criminal to know that he would be executed as it were at his own door, and in the midst of those with whom he had always associated. The Bishop of OXFORD said that some ten years ago their lordships granted a select committee, of which he was chairman, before which committee a large quantig l g wridenoe wastaken concerning public executions. evidence, without exception, was in direct opposition to what had just been suggested bythe noble lord. - Ele thought that at the moment of execution there ought to be some mode of making known the fact that it had taken place, inch for instance se the tolling of a bell or the hoisting of a black fag, the sight of which would at ones address itself to the imagination of those whom it was desirable to im press and to deter from crime. (Hear, hear.) Lord ROMILLY maddered that the balance of evi. deuce was in favour of the entire abolition of capital punishment. The object of punishment was two-fold— to deter from crime and to reform the criminal. Of Domes the latter was out of the question when the punkin:mat of death was resorted to. It might be said that the re formation of the murderer would be very unlikely to take place if he were to be let loose on society ; but it was the object and duty of the govern ment to consider the Interests of all persons, even of the criminals themselves. He believed that the effect of the punishment of death was greatly overrated, for it had no operation at all in cases where murder was committed under the influent's of violent passions such as jealousy or hatred. He believed that perpetual imprisonment for murder might be made more fearful by the infliction periodi cally of corporeal punishment. He was not in favour of that species of punishment in other cases, but he did not think society would object to it in the case of murder. Lord REDRSDALE objected to the classification of murders as tending to lead to an inference that crimes of the second degree were more or leas excusable and referred to the increase of infanticides, which he attributed to the 'endue leniency which had been exhibited in such cases. Lord DB ROB, comparing the English and French sys tems of military executions, argued that a solemn public proceeding exercised a greater deterrent influence than one conducted in comparative privacy. The Duke of ARGYLL did not believe that society could at present safely dispense with capital punishment, and remarked that Lord Ramilly had omitted all reference to the retributive element of this as of all other punish ments. Lord HOUGHTON commented upon the lawless and ells/gusting scenes which presented themselves on the com mon of all public executions, and accepted gladly the change proposed in the bill until the time should arrive when capital punishment would be unknown to British laws. The Earl of CARDIGAN observed that, considering the disgust which bad been shown at flogging in the army— a punishment which under proper restrictions he considered absolutely neoesaary for the maintenance of discipline—the suggestion that criminals guilty of murder should be sem Mooed to perpetual imprisonment, but should be perio dically brought out and publicly whipped, was one of the moat extraordinary, the moat shocking, and the most , revolting he had ever heard. (Hear, hear.) Lord ROMILLY bad never suggested that murderers should periodically receive corporal punishment ; on the contrary, he was in favour of the abolition of corporal punishment. All that be had mid was intended as an answer to those who suggested that it was impossible to devise any special penalty for murder abort of death. The Earl of SHAFTESBURY thought the bill would do a great deal for the protection of infant life ; but it would be a very imperfect measure unless some collateral means were taken with respect to still-born infants. Of these there were many thousands every year. and as they were buried without registration or inquiry there was reason to fear that many of them were really murdered. With respect co executions, he believed that the proposed change would, on the whole, prove salutary ; but it must not be supposed that public executions were not impressive. It was true that a number of " roughs " always found their way close to the scaffold, and greatly misconducted them selves ; but he believed that the large mass of the spec tators went away very deeply impressed indeed. (Hear, In his minion the abolition of capital punishments would inflict a great injury on the feelings of the people, and would double, or, perhaps, treble, the number of mur ders. (Hear, hear.) The LORD CHANCELLOR explained that when he said that no crime should be capitally punished incept murder, he did not, of course, mean to exclude high treason. After a few words from Lord DINMAN, The bill was read a second time. QUALIFICATION FOR OFFICES ABOLITION BILL Lord HOUGHTON said that after consulting with his friends, he thought it best to leave the bill in its present condition. The Earl of DERBY expressed his regret that while dealing with the subject the noble lord should have pre ferred doing it in what he must call a slovenly manner. Lord HOUGHTON hoped her Majesty's government would take up the matter, and pass a general bill on the subject of municipal oaths and declarations. The bill was then passed through committee, and was reported without amendments. SALMON FISHERIES (SCOTLAND) BILL Bill reported with amendments. SALE OF LANDS BY AUCTION BILL. Bill read a third time and passed. CUSTOMS DUTIES (ISLE OF MAN) BILL. Bill read a second time. LOCAL GOVERNMENT SUPPLEMENTAL BILL Bill read a second time.

FERGUSSON gave notice that on that day month be woald move that an humble address be presented to her Majesty, praying that an inquiry might be instituted into the state of the Patent-offioe. CONFEDERATION OF THE BRITISH NORTH AMERICAN PROVINCFS. ADDERLEY wished to ask the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he had received intelligence of proceedings in both houses of legislature of Nova Scotia favourable to the confederation of the North American pro vinces. Mr. CARDWELL said the government had received a letter from her Majesty's consul at New York, in which he 'tatted that a communication had been made to him by Sir Yenwick Williams, Governor of Nova Scotia, saying that a resolution approving of the confederation had been passed by both houses—in the upper house by a majority of 8, and in the lower, 11. (Hear, hear.) THE CATTLE PLAGUE. Mr. CHEETHAN asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if the government would tuspend the operation of Part I. of the Cattle Diseases Prevention Act, relating to the slaughtering of animals and compen sation for the same after the 10th of May. Sir G. GREY replied that originally it was intended these clauses should only remain in operation for a certain time. The Privy Council had not couaidered the question of extension, but from information which had reached the government from different parts of the country it appeared that great advantage had been derived from the operation of these clauses, and that the diminution of the cattle dis ease had been in a great measure attributed to them. He therefore believed en order would be made to continue them in force. (Hear, hear.) '{ 1..(A Kr GREAT YARMOUTH, AND REIGATE I lONS.—ADDREBS TO THE CROWN.

Sir G.

ETYM.-TIM PORT WINE TEAM This was an action relative to the purchase of a quantity of wine. The defendant denied the warranty. Mr. Temple, Q.C., and Mr. Beresford were counsel for the plaintiff,. Mr. D. Seymour, Q.C., and Mr. Joyce were counsel for the defendant. The plaintiff in this action is a wine merchant, carrying on business at Hart' 1, and the defendant is also a wine merchant, carrying on business at St. Dunstan's hill. The plaintiff's ease was that in July last Mr. Price, who travelled at that time for the defendant, called an him with several samples of wine, and he represented one of them to be port wine of 1858 vintage whi ch he o ff ered at 501. per pipe. Plainti ff could scarcely taste the samples, aa they appeared to have been so often opened. He, however, ultimately agreed to purchase two pipes at 451. each. De fendant afterwards wrote to say that he had only four hogsheads of the same wine, and plaintiff agreed to take them. The wine was forwarded, with an invoice which described the wine, " Four hogsheads port—rich old, 1858 ; " but when it was tasted the plaintiff discovered it was not as represented, and put them on one side until he should again see Mr. Price. He called in December and on plaintiff placing samples of the wine before him he re quested plaintiff to write to the defendant. He did so, c omplaining that the wine was not what it wan represented to be, and he received a reply that the complaint should have been made ear li er, and that he could not open a tran saction that had been so long concluded. Several letters were written to the defendant asking whether the wine was Oporto wine of 1858, but he never got an answer to the question, but that the brand was on the cask, and re questing the plaintiff's acceptance to be forwarded for the amount of the invoice. Some time after plaintiff received a letter from the defendant, stating that 11r. Price would write to him upon the subject. On the 23rd Dec., 1965, he received a letter from Mr. Price on behalf of the defen dant, stating that all had been adhered to as to contract ; the only guarantee as to the vintage was the brand. On the same day, however, he received another letter from Mr. Price. Objection was taken to the reading of the letter, and It was not put in evidence, but the learned connect had read it in his statement to the jury, and it requested the plaintiff not to take any notice of the Brat letter ; that the case was clear • the wine was not 1858, but a complete swindle. The Wine was not port, and was not worth morethan 181. a pipe. He had paid for the wine. In crone-examination plaintiff said some red wines were called port, but he only knew of one port wine. He had no doubt that much red French wine was drunk by the credulous as port wine. (Laughter.) He should think this was some of it. He had been informed that the vessel which brought this wine came from Guernsey. He purchased the wine upon the honour of the defendant's home. Mr. Pries was called. He stated that the defendant represented to him that the wine as genuine port wine of e,ndas each he represented it to the plaintiff ; he had since tasted the wine, which was a description of Spanish red, worth about 141. per pipe. The letter he wrote to the plaintiff by the defendant's request was not correct, and so he told the defendant. Cross-examined—The defendant wrote the letter, and he copied it. He objected to write it. He had since left the defendant, and was now in business for himself. He bad sold Spanish red, but only as such. He did not call it poet, although it might be called so in the trade. Mr. Justice Mellor said he had had it proved in • sass before him that on one omission bed cider was turned into exoellent port wine. (Laughter.) Mr. Georte Bolton, wine merchant, said he had tasted the wine. It was not port wine, nor was it known as such. It was worth about 151. per pipe. He should not consider wine coming from Guernsey to be port wine. Mr. George Ridley, another wine merchant, said the wine in question was Spanish red, and had no affinity to port wine. It was not known to the trade as port wine. The brand would be known in London, but not in the pro ' ViDellS, as that of a Guernsey brand. Evidence was then given which showed that the wine in question came from Guernsey in July last as red wine, and not as port wine. I At the end of the plaintiff's care, Mr. Seymour submitted that there was no proof of _ warranty. Mr. Justice Mellor said he had not sufficient doubt to reserve any point. He should have thought that the defendant would have been satisfied with what had already transpirod, and not wish to make the we more notorious. Mr. Seymour said he was sorry to have to state that his client was too ill to be able to attend and give any expla nation of the transaction. It was then agreed that a verdict should be taken for 541., the difference between the amount paid by the plaintiff and the value of the wine delivered by the defendant. Verdict for the plaintiff for HI. COURT OF BANKRUFTCY.-MAY 1. (Bofors Mr. Cooimissionor Winslow.) IN BB GOODNAN.-TIIN CRINZSI DWARF, CHIT-lILH. The bankrupt, Jacob Goodman, was described as a boarding-house keeper, of 141, Cannon-street-road ; but it was alleged that he was in possession of a lease or right to exhibit a Chinese dwarf, and the question arose whether this ought not to be assigned for the benefit of his credi tors. Mr. Reed opposed • Mr. Abrahams supported. Mr. Nugent deposed that he was the proprietor of the Royal Cambridge Music-hall, and had a contract for the exhibition of the Chinese dwarf Chee-mah. The contract was made with the bankrupt. He was the principal person in the contract, and the money was paid to him. The oontract was for a month. Witness wished to extend it, but the bankrupt required an increase of salary, and then a Mr. Smith was put forward as the party to make the contract. Witness refused to renew it. _ The bankrupt denied that he had any interest in the dwarf at present, and asserted that his agency had been revoked, and that it bad passed to Smith. The dwarf had been living at his honee since the let of January last. Mr. Reed raked that the bankrupt should be required to produoe Chee-mab, and said that he might do that with out difficulty, as he could put the little fellow in his pocket. (Laughter.) His Honour said there must be an adjournment for the examination of witnesses as to the alleged property of the bankrupt in the dwarf. If it were necessary to examine Chee-mah, it must be done at a private sitting. He must not be made a show of in the court. THE "LAYING-OUT" CASE IN ST. PANCRAS. Yesterday, at the weekly meeting of the St. Pan cras board of guardians, Mr. Churchwarden Lawford in the chair, an official communication from the Poor-law Board with reference to the recent charge of " laying out ^ a live child for dead in the St. Pancras workhouse, was read. Mr. Churchwarden Robson said the guardians had already, before receiving any communication on the subject, carried out everything now suggested by the Poor-law Board. He could not see anything to complain of in the report just read, as it was in accordance with their own opinions. He thought the doctor ought to see all bodies before they were removed to the dead-house. In conclusion, he moved that a copy of the resolutions come to by the guardians, cen suring the doctor and midwife, and appointing a paid nurse, be sent to the Poor-law Board in reply to their com munication. 'Mr. Thornton seconded the motion, which was carried. EARNED'S BANKING COMPANY (LIMITED). ELECTION COMMITTEES. In the case of the petition heard yesterday of Mr. Michael Will, • candidate at the late election, who complain/ of the return of Henry Jervis White Jervis, on the ground that at the time of the election he held an office or pimps of profit under the crown—namely, the office of Assistant - Superintendent of the Royal Small Arms Establishment in London, and was also a clerk in the office of the Secretary at War, The Chairman mid at the close of the proceedings—The committee are of opinion that the appointment in ques tion was not "an office or plate of profit under the crown" within the meaning of the act, but that it was extra work given to • commissioned officer which he was bound to execute under his commission. — The co;;;;;;;;Ken 7dr;urned.ile second petition will be proceeded with t,odey. NEW coaairrnacs. The General Committee of election, ionsistinof Mr. Walpole ( chairman ), Mr. Bonham-Carter, Mr. Clay, Mr. Mutt, and Mr. Whitbread, met yesterday, to appoint select committees to try and determine the merit' of the h e x, :io o n i c b, against the returns for Hereford, Carlow, and The only committee, however, which it was necessary to strike was that for Here ford, the others having been withdrawn. NIWO*D. In this case there are two peatMa& The first is that of Peter Warburton and others spinet the return of Richard y, on the ground of bribery, treating, and undue Vne ig t a e praying that his election may be declared null and void , and that the return may be amended by erasing his name therefrom, and substituting that of Henry Morgan Clifford. The second petition is that of Josiah Rnisbeek and others, against the return of George Clive, on the ground of bribery, treating, and intimidation, and that his election may be declared null and void. The Chairman announced that the committee bad selected the following member, : Mr. George Cavendish Bentiack. the Hon. A. F. Egerton (ianceshire S.), Mr. G. Hodgkinaon, Mr. Arthur Russell (Tavistock), and the Hon. Admiral Buncombe Smith ap in support of the (chaciiremariV. ?dr.

A public meeting of the electors and non-electors of Lambeth wee held LA evening, at the Horns Tavern, Kennington, for the purpose of taking into consideration the political conduct of Mr. Doulton, one of the member. for the borough ; Mr. Joan RICHAILDISON filled the chair. The CH&IRMAN maid the electors of Lambeth met on that occasion to vindicate their political views in respect to the election of sae of their members, who, he regretted to say, went to parliament , not to represent them, but to misrepre sent them. (Groans.) He hoped the electors would show the country that they would net be trifled with by Mr. Donlton or any other candidate for their votes who would dare to outrage their feelings by shamefully abandoning his avowed principles. (Loud cheers.) He (the chairman) had seconded air. Doulton's nomination, and as his political integrity was consequently involved, he availed himself of that occasion to protest against the conduct of that gentleman in regard to the government Reform Bill. (Cheers.) Mr. Doulton had addressed to him, as the chairman of the meeting, a letter, which he would now read : " Paris, Monday Evening.—Sir,—l have just received a telegram informing me that a meeting is to be held at the Horns, Kennington, to-morrow (Tuesday), evening, to con sider my conduct in having voted against the government on Saturday morning last. I exceedingly regret that it is not possible for me to arrive in London in time to attend the meeting—(laughter)—es I am quite sure that I shall be able to justify to the great body of my constituents the course which I felt it my duty to take. (Groans.) Indeed, the opinion of the electors generally has been pretty freely expressed in the many communications by letters which I have had with them during the past week : where I have had one disapproval of the course indicated by me in my speech at the Horns, I have received fifteen expressions of entire approval (Oh, oh, and laughter.) Again I cannot but regret that I am unable to meet you, but that regret is diminished by the recollection that probably a dissolution will be the result of Saturday's vote, and that then the question of confidence in me as the representative of Lambeth can be fully tested." (Renewed laughter). The Rev. Isaac DOXZT, in proposing the first resolution, expressed a hope that the electors of Lambeth would not submit to an insult which would excite indignation even in such an insignificant place as Caine. (Laughter and cheers.) Mr. Doulton and the other Adullamites neu tralised the votes of the honest liberals, including the man of whom they all felt proud—he meant Mr. Hughes. (Loud cheers.) He would propose--" That Mr. Frederick Doul ton having been elected one of the representatives, in the liberal interest, of the borough of Lambeth, and having re cently voted in the House of Commons in favour of a re solution calculated to retard reform and embarrass a liberal government, had, by his inconsistency, forfeited the con fidence of this constituency." (Greet cheering. Mr. G. M. MURPHY seconded the resolution. He said he occupied a position similar to that of the chairman, inas much as he was a prominent supporter of Mr. Duultou at his election. He regretted that Mr. Doulton had betrayed ' the liberal cause as well as the interests of his constituents. luroans.) Mr. EDWARDS expressed his intention to move an amendment. He said be was not surprised at the cynical and fastidious objections of Mr. Lowe, Mr. Marsh, and others, to the Reform Bill. But, looking at the antecedents of Mr. Doulton, he was astonished that thatgentlemen could be led astray by the miserable pretext of the supporters of Earl Grosvenor's amendment. He would propose the following as an amendment:—" That this meeting desires to express the astonishment of the electors of Lambeth that Mr. Doulton, contrary to his avowed principles and professions, and contrary to the expressed wishes of his constituents, should have voted against the second reading of the Franchise Bill ; but as the government still intend pressing forward the bill, this meeting will believe that Mr. Doulton may be found supporting the progress of that measure, or other bills supplementary it, and thereby help to secure a speedy and latisfactory settlement of the question of reform." (Ones of " No, no," and uproar.) A Mr. SwINULEHEILST rose to second the amendment ; but the meeting refused to hear him, and the resolution was put and carried with acclamation. Mr. GLANVILLE proposed that a deputation be appointed to wait upon Mr. Doulton and request him to resign his seat for the borough. (Loud cheers.) The electors of Lambeth would have no traitor in the liberal camp. (Re newed cheering.) Mr. H. PurrEn seconded the resolution. Mr. W CSIION, in supporting the resolution, said that Mr. Doulton had asked Earl Russell and Mr. Gladstone what they had done for the people. (" Oh, oh," and groans.) Surely such a question, applied to Earl Russell, who had grown grey in the cause of the people—(cheers)--and to Mr. Gladstone, who had served his country for thirty years in parliament, was absolutely astounding. (Cheers.) Mr. Musitort:l4, late member for Bridport, and Mr. CosoLLY, stonemason, also supported the resolution. The resolution wis then put and carried amid cheers.

It appears from the return burned by authority of the Registrar-General that in the week that ended on Saturday, April 28, the births registered in London and twelve other large towns of the United Kingdom were 4,570; the death. registered, 3,349. The annual rate of mortality was 29 per 1,000 persons living. In London the births of 1,080 boys and 1,107 girls, in all 2,187 children, were registered in the week. In the corresponding weeks of ten years 1856-66 the average number, corrected for increase of population, was 2,062. The deaths registered in London during the week were 1,492. It wee the seven teenth week of the year ; and the average number of deaths for that week in, with a correction for increase of population, 1,356. The deaths in the present return exceed by 137 the estimated number. . . The Registrar-General has received the following letter in reference to a fatal case of cholera at Bristol 2, Queen-square, Bristol, April 24th, 1866.—Sir—At five o'clock yesterday I was asked to visit Henry Thomas, ma riner, at Prince-street tollgate in this city. I found him suffering from all the symptoms of Asiatic cholera ; he died about five a.m. this morning. He left Java in De cember and arrived at Rotterdam April 14th ; left Rotter dam last Sunday morning (April 22nd), andreached London on Monday Zird at eight a.m. He left immediately by train for Bristol ; was taken ill in the train abmt 11 a.m. ; was ill only 18 hours. He had rice water evacuations, most violent cramp of ahnost every muscle, cold perspirations, sunken eyelids, he. I saw a great deal of cholera in 1849, and I could not distin guish this from a genuine case. I have signed the certifi cate of death cholera.' As the case is isolated I did not insert the word 'Asiatic,' but I believe it was a case of tha: disease. My friend Dr. Wm. Budd visited the corpse with me this morning, and he is firmly of opinion it was Asiatic cholera brought from Rotterdam.—Your obedient servant, Davit) Dares, M.R.C.S.—The Registrar-General" THE REGISTRAN-GYNERAL'S QUARTERLY RETURN. —The registers of the United Kingdom show that 142,304 persons married in the quarter that ended in December last ' • that the births of 265,663 children, and the deaths of 1 85,138 persona of both sexes, were registered in the three months ending on March 31.
