IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT• HOUSE OF LORDS.—TIM/MAT, Aram 2S. The Earl of DERBY called attention to the resoistions moved by Mr. Gladstone In the House of Commons on the subject of the Irish church, and asked Earl Rumen if be adhered to the opinion which be had reeently expressed with respect to another matter, that any minister who so suddenly changed his opinions on any important political question was unworthy of the confidence of the country. He also asked it the supporters of Mr. Gladstone's rose lutions intended to take any steps with a view to obtain ing the concurrence of their lordships and the action of parliament With respect to the m. He pointed out the extraordinary similarity tetwern the events of the present time and those of 1833, when the noble earl, then out of office. with Sir R. Peel at the head of the government, but in an avowed minority in the House of Commons, woad an abstract resolution appropriating the revelation of the Irish Church to secular purposes. Ile trusted that the government, no matter bow f,ctious the opposition offered to them, would allow nothing to induce them to abandon their duty to their move reign and country of completing t',/ wart of reform, and of insisting that the voice of the new enlarged consltnen cies should be taken on this question. He pro'ested against the proposal to ask the crown to consent to suspend its prerogatives, not in accordance with any act of parliament, but at the request of one house. In conelo.ion be expressed his earnest hope that the govern ment would give no countenance to a policy which 000ld only introduce into Ireland religions discord and animosity instead of peace. Earl RUSSELL sald the course taken by the noble earl was a most extraordinary one, considering that the other house was on the point of deciding upon these reolutions. He still preferred his own scheme of endowing the clergy of all persuasions in Ireland, but he found that this was imprac ticable, and be had therefore no ohoimi but to vary the means in order to preserve the consistency of the end. Instead of the resolutions being proposed to their lordships' house he thought the better way would be that a bill should be 'rallied upon them. In reply to the reproaches of the noble earl be insisted that until public opinion was rife for the measure it would have been idle for a liberal govern ment to have pressed this question of the Irish church. He hoped the government would rot adopt the advice of the noble ear:, for i` they advised the crown to resist the deliberate /lentil of the House of COMMODE., carried by a large majority, they would cause a collision between that house and the crown such as had not been seen for many years. After some discussion, in which Earl Granvale, the Lord ('hancellor, the Duke of Argyll, Lord Halifax, and the Earls of Hardsicke sad Memesbury toot part, the subject dropped. The house adjourned at 2) minutes past 7 o'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—TrEsn tv, APRIL 28. The Earl of MAYO stated is reply to Mr. Pim, that he has a hill prepared on the subject of the land question in Ireind, bat it weal I be useless t.) introduce it wiles there was a clear prapect of its behia fully dimmed. and he must therefore wait in crier to se: what wee likely to take pLice in that ri eject. The adjourned debate en the II jab Church establishment was resumed by Colonel EARTTELOP, wbo coltenial that it was an set of injustice to the protestants of Ireland that the Irish church should be diaendowrd. Mr. BUXTON remarked that no one eAdd doubt that if Ireland were an independ:•nt act solt•govcrned country, its church establishment would have been swept away long since. So long as we maintained the supremacy of that church, so long did we treat the people of Ireland as a subject people. Mr. ADDERLEY eampldned that there was no clear issue put before the house. Mr. Gladstone had ruefully abstained from giving them an outline of his plsn. The real object of the rapport ere of the resolution was to diem dow all churches. What was the disease of the Irish church! It was that the church and the nation did not coincide. The natural remedy would be to bring the nation to the ehurch or to loing the church to the nation. Eat it was hopeless to attempt to bring the nation to the church, and to bring the church to the nation, which would be by making the church Roman catholic, was impossible. The government acknowledged the necessity of such a redistribution and re-arrangement of the pro perty of the Irish church as would make it suitable to the wants of the nation, but the &detente between them and their opponents was that the government pro posed to wait till they had the necessary information, while their opponents proposed to legislate withont. To move without information was the function of an agitator, not of • statesman. Mr. PEASE supported the resolution, and Lord ROYSTON opposed it in a speech which elicited roar.: cf laughter, principally caused by the naive admis sions it contained. Mr. BAGWELL remarked that the proteetants of Ire land had made up their minds to the diaestabliehment of the church, which he believed would conduce to the spread a protestAntism. The debate was continued by Mr. Denman, who argued in favour of tbo resolution, and by Mr. Vane* and Colonel Hogg, who spoke against it. The Marquis of HARTINGTON denied that this mea sure would lead to an attsek upon property. Io answer to the question whether this would be looked upon as a • . . - . incisors of conciliation, he said be looked upon it as a measure of justice ; sal if the Roman catholic' were not satisfied with it, and if there was not one Feuima the less, it ought to be carried out. But be could scarcely believe that this would not be a mimeo of peace to the Roman catholic'. Mr. MOWBRAY said these resolutions involved changes more momentous than had been proposed in parliament for the last forty years, touching oar constitutional rights, and touching the monlreby in its most vital relations. How long could they maintain the act of settlement, how long would the Irish people endure that the successor to the crown should be of the protestant religion if the policy of these resolutions were adopted ? They touched the crown and they touched the House of Lords by removing from it the lords spiritual who had time oat of mind formed part of that assembly. But there would be in superable difficulties in carrying out the details of the mearms. What sort of a free church was it that they proposed should take the place of the established church in Ireland? Was the Queen to maintain her supremacy, and where was to be their final court of appeal in point of doctrine? Government did not deny the legal right of the opposition to carry these resolutions, but they denied thi.ir legal competency, and should appeal from that moribund house to those young and vigorous constituencies which were created by the act of last session. Mr. SULLIVAN protes , e 1 against its being assumed that the protestant' of Ira tnd had a monopoly of loyalty, and averred that there was no more loyal class than the Roman c►tholic. of Ireland. By the measure now pro posed they would remove one of the most fruitful causes of dimension. They demanded—they implored this as an act of justice. The Fenian' did not demand the die establishment of the Irish church, because they knew that the existence of that church was one of the main canoes of Fenianism. Mr. NEWDEGATE said much • proposal as this had never before been made by the House et Commons to the Sovereign. It was unprosedentedlin the annals of parlia ment. Almost every argument in favour of the resolutions was copied from • pamphlet written by Dr. Manning, and addressed to Earl Grey. For the sake of party, they were going to pull down an institution which had existed for these hundred years. He denied that this was de manded by thebulk of the Irish people, and said distinctly that the demand was made by the Roman hierarchy, noting under the directions of Cardinal Cullen and Dr. Manning, Mr. WHALLEY said he gave a reluctant support to these resolutions, bat there was no doubt that they were a concession to the disaffection which existed in Ireland. It was the most disgraceful page in the annals of the house that Mr. Gladstone should have come forward in the manner he had done, and proposed to deal with the Irish church, which could not be regarded as • real grievance. REARDEN was proceeding to address the house, when An HON.

For many years there has not been suck a miner tional race for the tiulnests as that of today. and indeed it may be added that the week's prognunme is "Dig with the fate of thousands." A esterase, to the market operations already re corded will at once show the Mc-sky experienced by speculators In establithiest a favourite for the race of today, as the three leading bones veered about till Green Sleeve at the last moment became the chosen one, and was backed foe a eamideraide ammtut. Generally mealelag.betties over night waa not of • very extensive al the sub scription rooms were crowded till a late bc . inr, an fan and plow Green eeed more the rule than direct Formosa, Sleeve, Rosicincian, and the French represen tative, Le Serracin, had the call, the latter having come with • rub in the morning, and being freely supported during the day. In the evening there was not the same dein to back Le earmain. and speculation upon him became comparatively tame, the prim at which he left off standing at a traction over Mx to one. Vale Royal was tench Inquired after, and the Lord of Ravine, beside his commissioners, backed the animal to win a good stake. espeeidly by place investments. An however, a return of the market ooeratboe will be found subjoined to a return of the racing, ether comment Is here unnecessary. After the Wearable state of the elements. during the preceding day visitors began to be dubious of Newmarket weather, but fortu nately the early promise of the eventful day was fulfilled, and what rain had fallen on Monday rendered the heath in capital going or.ler. The card contained eight items for decision, but beside the Guineas the rest of-the programme might fairly be pronounced of a plating character. A noteworthy feature in the handicapping was the high opinion eedently entertained by the Admira M form of the Chapita-Machell stable, for, on reference to the programme, the heavy imposts on their repro !tentative' will be at once apparent, as Hermit and Knight of the (lafter, in the Ann instance, headed the list with lest 71b and test 1.31 b respectively for a three-quarter mile race on the Criterion Conn. Shortly after breakfast there was a 'Moog muster at the rooms, and intaimessooo became tolerably brisk The two favourites were inquired niter, but layers would not advance beyond the latest quoted figure of Monday night, and conse quently the two cracks maintained their positions, large gams being invested upon them at 9to 2. hosclam found many eupporters for • considerable amount of mosey. 10) to 15 being taken several times about him; while Lorl Stamford's re, resew tative, Vale loyal, began to look healthier in the market, as 7 to 1 was the extreme price offered, and had 8 to 1 been torth coming the odds would have been taken freely. There was a tendeecy to lay against Itoalem, bet the Mtn' of 100 to 8 were not su thcieutly tempting, and consequently there was not • re sponse. St. Ronan received a large share of support for • place from his owner, Mr. Chaplin, who le ked 100 to 30 twelve times about the colt being in the find three. Beyond these points there was nothing done to call for ootinneut. The special trains from the metropolis and the Midlands brought a large ameadon of Menu to the town, so that the heath presented a more lively appearance than on Monday, the crowd on the course being quite up to the numbers attending the Otticeas race en any termer mouton. As the Ant event teemed a certainty for Blmkhooile, and as only two were coloured on the card for the ram—a 341 son. sweepstakes—many of the metalildans de ferred their journey to the heath till the handicap hour. iu order that they might do as much busluese on the great event es pos. anis. As the items which were disposed of before and after the big race had really little or no Influence on the future, and will be found amply recorded below, we will confine oar remarks to the Two thousand. Though the comparatively anal number of fourteen mustered at the post, the " talent," even to the final hour, were remarkably wavering in their allegiance. nod the " " appeared as difficult to discover as if it wire a Cani ire field. The cherry jacket of Sir Joseph Hawley proved the most fascinating on Green Sleeve, but Yonuosa by no means decreased her admirer', and itoeteructan, Vale Royal, and the 'apposed " second Gladiateur," Le earrazin, all drew an immense amutud of support. Newmarket punctuality never looked to better advantage as the competitors were eighcil out, and in the hands of the starter be(m:. the time ap peiut.ed f r the race; and Mr. it'Ceorge, getting them together at a favourable moment, despatchei them to perhaps one of the best starts ever witnessed, the boosts stretching acne' the course like a linoleum a ruler. As far as the winners were con cerned, the race was over after the first few strides, Moslem and Immo& quitting the field, and racing on side by side, and never allowing anything else to approach them. Of the others, Le Sarrazin held a formidable position for a quarter of a mile, when the "Peyote:l" gave way, to the cousterniulon of the extraordinarily confident believers In the borne who, by their untiring investments, had risen in a short time from the most obscure positlun in the quotations to that on Tioaday of the first favourite. Ironnuater showed terrine speed for half a toile, bed it proved too hot to lest. and Rsailsneues colt at the end of the Rowley Mile occupied the Ignominious position in racing of whipper In. It was apparent to the merest novice that itosacrucian might have changed places with it. Ronan as third, and have, moreover, been nearer the deadheeters, had Wells not judiciously eased him when be found it hopeless to persevere with "bosh" as fat as a young bullock. Vale Royal must have disappointed Lord Stamford sadly, and there really seems no end to the ll luck of the lord of Fantle, who, on the strength of a great trial, supported his horse freely for a "place," which he nofortunately obtained at the wrong end, as he awl Irontunster were the two absolutely last. Pare never figured to advantage once dining the race, and ran interior toles good looking stable compact m, Harvester. Sioch disappoint ment, sieved amounting to disgust, was expressed when It was audenitood that the owners of the two first bad come to an arrangement, and there would he a walk over for the division of the stakes. It certainly seems a pity that such ahonld have been the ease, for the final &trestle would undoubtedly have been pnelualve d immense excitement, surpassing that of the deal hest.

A resolution was passed, stating that the Irish church rendered peace and contentment in Ireland impossible, and was a danger and discredit to Great Britain ; and a second resolutisn was curried, de manding the impartial diaendowment of all religions bodies in Ireland, and calling upon the House of Com mons to pass Mr. Gladstone's resolutions without delay. A petition was adopted embodying the views of the meet ing. A meeting IMO held on Monday, in the Queen-street Hall, Edinbur g the Lord Proro.t presiding, to consider the Irish Church question. The hall was crowded to ex cess. The Lord Provost, in opening the proceedings, pro posed a motion expressing feelings of holler and detest,- Mon at an attempt being made on the life of the Duke of Edinburgh, and that the address be forwarded to her Ma. jesty. The motion was adopted amid great cheering. Ile whitlow were then proposed by Mr. Adam Black, Pro fessor Rainy, Professor Blackie, and others, approving Mr. Gladstone's resolutions to disestablish and disendow the Irish church, and also that a petition be presented to par liament to that effect. An amendment wes proposed, but very few bands were held up for it and the resole- Mono were carried by a great majority . Similar meetings have been held et, amongst other places, Devon port sad Bury. At the latter pieces the proceedings were et ea uproarious character, but resolutions in favour of Mr. Gladstone's proposals were nevertheless earned. Rnuotoun TaAvr Sout:TY.—The sixty-ninth annual meeting was held last evening in Exeter-hall, under the presidency of Mr. Duncan liPleuen, M.P. Dr. Davis gave a resume of the report, from which it appears that during the pest year the society published over 100 new treats end handbills, 15 books for adults 19 for the young, and a large variety of small books for children.

TIIRNPIKS TRUSTB.—iIi influential deputation, chiefly representatives of turnpike trusts in the Salford hundred, waited upon Mr. Gathorne Hardy, yesterday, to ask him to oppose Mr. Hugeseen's measure relating to turnpike trusts. The strong points urged were that in many districts the rates would be more than doubled, that the roads would be much wore, that in the manufac turing dishicts the people who used the roads were in favour of tolls, and that the operations of the bill would reel unequally. In reply the House Secretary rid he bad heard, though not from th e author of the bill, th at it would not be proceeded with to-day ; that he was quite impressed with the difficulties that would follow unequal pressure upon different localities, particularly with refe• renoe to the cost of material ; that he had himself sketched out a bill merely to show to members, but that he would not bring in a measure culler there was a pro spect of is being carried ; that there did not norm to be much charm of going on with Mr. Hugesesn's bill this year, and that there was a decided opposition to its Ch.d• that under those cirourostanoes it would lei well rlder e ' whether something could not be done to eat I !owe **large exposer arming from a multiplicity of Imola byaallalla form Py in a t e tzecnty board to control the matter (1•00 s WM) ; that altogether the great *set this year was ie get rid e of ad Mr. Heasures MIL [Advealimusest.l lioawAy's Pum.-311kata iszsgaidriessarimereat =AI Arabi* x f et em ...4 its :siai laaq, IMMO laadia • , le the aa lli =Vail dabs, 2111411 1 ;01 4 art, to Nimble aisperel alsollaaa giant arstrake sew sairkagyritutton - by the • eel Is this eel arelase W 10 . 66 7,_ Solloway' OM 7.1101( LAST NIGHT'S GAZIPTTI. -..--__ WIWI 0/ TOLIOTIOIS •13) 10111 TIMI POOTOCIAIIII TO /11 CONLIIIMID AT TEI OPTION OP 11111 CUM mumAz, ODOR O. .

Moe, oresseinsransel by Mr. MUMS, Q. 0., mid his earns wee, and always had been, David Dangles, Name, though the mend name was omitted by mistake in the registry of his baptism. Produced the certificate of his father's and mother's marriage. Asked as to his strange gift, said he etwahi not explain what had no power to give it, or to take it away. Asked it was, mid be could not explain it, except that extraordinary manifestations bed enema to his, as they had to the piaLstiff ; snob as the displeseement of material objects]. Many besides him self bad peculiar visions, taken to be oommunicatioes from the spiritual world. Could not say how the communion.- ' Mons were made between the medium and the spiritual world. He had seen spirits ; had conversed with them easily independently of knocking, rapping, be. They had talked to him by sounds audible to the ear ; he had beard them. When communications are made by knocking, it is sot indicated who the spirit is. Being asked bow the sounds were shown to come from the spirit, said that was taken for granted the same as the telegraph wire. Being asked as to some of the manifestations being noble and elevated, said they were made by means of the alphabet. The !alphabet was called, or pointed at in some inatanon ; when • sound was beard it was an indication that that letter was called or pointed at. Being asked to show bow the knock was produced, said some knocks were gentle, some were loud, but he could not imitate them. Whether one knock indicated a negative, two an affirmative, and so on, could be arranged as you pleased. Spirits were as Intelligent as human beings ; spirits tumidly spelt their names —sometimes without any question being i asked. If Mr. Jemes called upon him, and naked him to communicate with the spirit of a deceased person, he (111 r. Home) should refuse, because he was not introduced by some personal friend. If introduced by • personal friend nothing would occur. Asked what mode be would adopt ; said he would take none, he would come of its own accord, if it wished to do so. It would make Half known by rapping sounds or by knocking. Did not know in whet particular way spirits would manifest their presence. "It would be the stale to you as to me, by sounds." If qua'. tdons were required, the alphabet was the common mode. The alphabet would be produced either in the hand or orally in the mouth, so by degrees a message would be spelt oat. The calling of each letter would precede the manifestation of the spirits. Had been displaced himself bodily by the spirits. Had been the subject of physical experiment, in violation of the ordinary laws of grants- Mon. Had been floated in the air; but must insist upon saying he was not the only pei eon to whom this had hap peaml Chairs and tables bad been moved in violation of ordinary natural laws. Had found useful results arise from these manifestations, in some instances in convincing those who did not believe in the immortality of the nu]. That was the only one. Being asked bow, said be did not ropiness how his floating in the air, or a table moving, could convince anyone of the doctrine of immortality. It was the intelligence connected with it. These things were done by invisible intelli gences. Some of the things which these invisible intelli. Wean did had sometimes toe character of • pertained joke. Things were knocked about, and knocked agiunet penman Had never found any useful result from the practical jokes. That was only one side of the question. There was • more elevated side. It had contributed to giving useful information on some occasions. Not usually • sometimes they (the spirits ) had made predictions; some times given directions as to health • had given counsel or advice, yes, but othe rwise no. Never knew them give information about stock-jobbing ; but as to health he had. As to journeys and travelling, in a few isolated batmen. As to conduct towards relatives, he did not know ; yes, they usually tried "to patch up feuds." The spirits were sometimes false and lying spirits. There were all kinds, as there were on earth. Persons consulting spirits might be liable to be deceived ; that depended upon their own reason. Reason had to be exerted in all things. Being asked how the pawn consulting an to know whether • spirit was or was not a lying spirit, said he must meson end try whether the answer was a true one or not. If he had a cancer, and wished to con sult • doctor, and asked the spirits, and they spelt out a good cancer doctor, he ahould go to him. Supposed be had a particular idiosyncrasy ; the last spiritual manifesta tion be haul was within • fortnight. Had not a good memory as to what took place at stances. Remembered if manifestations occurred in sleep ; in natural sleep, not in a trance. No external phenomena occurred during a trance. Had no recollection of what took place during a triton, but always remembered baying been in a trance. Reeexemined by Mr. Matthews—Had had these pheno mena occur in many countries, before a peat many persons, in houses where he was a guest. He had asso ciated with the Emperor of Russia, in whose residence be was a guest ; not paid ; phenomena hid occurred whilst he resided under the emperor's roof. His wife was a daughter of Count de Croix, aide-de-camp of the late Emperor Nicholas, and his god-daughter. He wrs invited as a guest, not being then married. These phenomena had occurred in strange braises; scientific men were pre sent ; he had invited scrutiny, so much so that Lis friends bad complained of it. He had also been :a !guest of the Emperor of the French. No one could believe in spiritualism without candid investigation. Had never claimed supernatural power ; never pretended he could call up a spirit ; never believed be could. Knows many mediums ; lass observed them to be of peculiar or highly nervous temperaments] ; amongst them many per sons in respectable ranks of life. Hiss Nelly Gully was not a medium ; many persons were mediums whus could not be nspected of making a livelihood by it. Had seen the laws of gravitation suspended in Mr. Jenrken's presence, in hie house. Had no theory to account for that happening. Had consulted spirits with regard to his own money :nat ters. Had never professed to do so for other people. Had known Mr. and Mies Gully . upwards of seven years. Had no power if he had the wish to impose upon them. She west Dr. Gully's sister, a lady past forty. Preferred not to give the name of the gent ] eman who had made a settlement upon him. He had known him a long time. It was an annuity. The gentleman haul about 13,1)001. a was • gentleman of education, of no profession. Pil r ' li snnt7ity was 2501. Never solicited it. Had not brought • Chancery suit in order to get it. Hoped he was too much of a gentleman to do so. The gentleman was ' still living. Rapping s we not his ( Home 's) invention. Had his father, sister, and two aged aunts dependent on him at the time. hlrs. Ritchie received no rem latandN their oWy fri s en lec r money s came on Tuesday. Never held himself out as whiling to out for of the e e Athenaeum. cue d his Bomberschih. advise people who desired to communicate with the dead. On the occasion of signing the will, Mrs. Lyon requested him to ro into her bedroom. She asked him to leave the room. The bedroom was the adjoining room. He could not have heard if he had tried, and trusted he was too much of a gentleman to listen. Before the 12th of November, when he found Mrs. Key listening, Mrs. Lyon had given notice to leave the apartment.. Had never spoken to Wilkinson, or Wilkinson to him, about the contents of the will. At abort twenty minutes past 3, the eron-examination having been concluded, the court rose till to-morrow (to- day). THE SMALL PARCELS QCESTION. —A deputation, consisting of gentlemen from the thief centres of teme meths, was received by the President of the Dowd of Trade, yesterday, on the sobject of the 15th clause of the Regulation of Railways Bill. The deputation includel the following members of parliament :—Sir F. Crowley, Lord F. Cavendish, Lord Amberley, Mr. R. W. Crawford, Mr. G. Goschen, Mr. T. E. Headlam, Mr. M. T. Bass, Mr. M. A.

Cheethain, and Mr. Dalgliah. Mr. James Hughes, of the firm of Messrs. Copestake, Moore, and Co., stated the facts and opinions of the Lon don committee, to the effect that the insertion of clause 13 would intents*e most seriously with the farilities hitherto enjoyed by the public and by traders through out the whole country. Mr. W. E. Forster, 11. P., stated that the view of the climes taken by the public use that pat upon it by the railway companies themselves ; and various speakers representing thirty chambers of commerce, 'upraised their decided and unanimous opinion that the clause should be entirely expunged, and that, in fact, the railways had at present all the powers necessary for their own protection. The Duke of Richmond observed that the clause was not intended to preve nt oe4i the enclosure of small parcels, but that it ha ving been ill-drawn, that interpretation might, perhaps, be upon it.

Poulson and Koos - leak collieries should resur.re work was founded upon a misapprehension of the course which the frm had declared their willingaeis to adopt. The men have not gone to work this morning; they say that Mr. 1( " has inn off his bargain," and it would appear that some casual expression of that gentleman has been taken to mean that if the men would work for a fortnight at the 15 per cent. reduction, the five per cent. now in dispute should be returned to them. Since the meeting the mi•teke has been explained, and it is not likely therefore that the other employers will be asked to consent to the arrange ment, and so the question stands over till the adjourned delegate meeting to-morrow.
