THZ WAR fl DENMARK. The flarl of lILLINIOROUGH asked the noble earl tie Beatebuy far Fenian Affairs whither it is mideestood by the Conferees that war contrtliatioss imposed before tbe armistice was blows sad sananaced in Jutland caa be masted daring the seepeesioe of emu, whether any war matribetioes imposed after the armistice was blown, but before the smpemios of arms oa the 12th, can be collected, sad whether may sew war contribution can be imposed daring the easperios of arms. Fari RUSSELL replied—la answer to the question of the noble earl with respect to the present suspen d= of area, I ben to say that I do not at all depart from the role whim* I thought it my duty to lay down for myself on a previonsaosisioa—namely, oot to state, pending • conference, what takes pines in that oonfereees. But, however, with regard to the suspension of arms, I think then in fairly an eximptice. The Conference have agreed— and that will be an answer to the last vitiation of the noble earl—the Confereoce have agreed that dosing the suspension of arms thereshall not be levied by the allied troops in Jutland or elsewhere when they occupy position, any contributions for war, sad that, on the coetrary, they will pay for the articles they require for the troop.. The Conference dui not lay Bowe any rale with Mud to 000tribottoss Previ ously unposed. but, as I believe. the spirit of the amen meat will be that the allied troops would ones to levy con tribution ef war. That appears to me the fair spirit and meaning of the Conferens. The Conferring, anxious to stop the effuni• of blood, as well as anxious to protect the people from these contributions of war, did decide on the main port, and ban lilt it to the earansanclin of the naval cad military boom oil each side to settle the detail.. It appears to me I as. not authorieed Wry mne in the dis charge of my duty, because with regard to the wood contribution wain has been decided by the Conferees*. I may rowdies that having made • repremsdation lie the allied governments with regard to the first entributice oil Jatlaod, the governmeet of Austria have stated that it was anal to levy contribution for the maintenance of the troops thong war. Now, whatever may be the ore with other countries, that, I believe, has never been don by the armies of this onstry. When the Duke of Wellintre annumaded our forces in the Penin sula, so entrintions were levied, sod the utmost care wee taken to pay for all that was supplied be the wis of the anny. Tin Earl of ELLSNBOROUGH—I am extremely sorry to bear from the motile earl that the Confereeos did sot use the most extreme preaska of language in the directime which they iateaded to gin with mewl to the eelleeties of war matrihatieem It appean to me DOW that there is wothiog definite is the lategamps, sod that there is merely as nadmetandiag cm the part of the sable earl that no new cootribotines are to holing& Earl RIIESELL —They are not to levy contributions at ell—not sorely not to levy sew contributions. The Earl d ELLENBOSOUGH—It so happens that a emitributron el 600,000 crown, or hemmed on the very day the Courses* agreed to the armistice, and it sues to se with the knowledge that the Conferee°, would then some to that couclusion. The contribution we. hummed is seder that it might bare the advantage of having berm ha mmed previously. The subject then dropped. REGIUS PROFESSORSHIP OF GREEK (OXFORD) BILL On the maeioe for going into committee upon this but Lord LYTTELTON promoted two petitions against the bill, observing, however, that he could not axpream &me anest in their Prayer Lord CHELMSFORD objected to the bill. and esigested that the profcmoiship should be transferred to the uni versity, which would then be willing to endow the chair from its owe foods. fiiirdTil3: 4 :iON said be felt that Professor Jovett had been treated very unjustly by the univeraity ; at the same time he had ieuat objection to the bill on the ground that it woeW exclude laymen from the chair. In fact to remedy a temporary evil it was proposed to inflict a permaoent one. The FArl of DERBY said be had on a preemie occasion stated h* ramose for ohjectiog to the bill, but at the same time he did sot feel authorised to move its rejection. The university did not object to endow the professorship bemuse it was in the patronage of the Crown, bat bemuse it con sniestionaly objected to the doctrioes of the person who now held it. He suggested that the further consiffasstion of the measure should he postponed. The LORD CHANCELLOR admitted that this was sok the beet way to endow the professorship, but it was the MIT one left open to him to remedy the iojostice of the university. Under all the cireumsuinces. he felt that the crown was bound to endow the professorship as it was in its own Patronage. The Bishopof ST. DAVIDS wished to state the grounds of his obj•etio• to this bill. It seemed to him that there was the great principle which ought to govern all their legisla. Moo, except is same where there was as evil so crying or of mach inagnitarl• as to be abeilutely intolerable—and that was, that they should look to the future rather theta to the present. If they were fora moment to abstract themselves from present circumstances, and to look to the future alone, there would appear such strong objections to this measure as to render it hardly possible for their lordships to accept it. The simple vaned noon which be felt a repugnance to the measure was that it appeared inevitably to have the effect of damaging the Greek Plan . sorship of Orford. It wee impossible to say that the limits- Coo of the professorship to a Minh' doss would sot have the inevitable effect of lowering its value and its dig nity. He was quite aware of the importance of those studies which it was the object of the pro fessorship to cultivate for the interests of the thumb ; bet while be cotheded that it was very imports's' indeed that there who were destined for the clerical pro fession should have the best possible instruction that could be afforded io the university, be believed that the effect of annexing this professorship in perpetuity to the clergy would be to prevent the posibility rat beer always sure that the best instruction would be obtainable. The ground upon which he hoped the bill would be deferred was, that be thought it a most unsatisfactory mode of dealing with the difficulty to apply that which had been most justly de scribed as a permaomit remedy of as unsatisfactory the- Tarter toe mere temporary evil. (Hear.) Lord CRAY WORTH felt great repugnance to girls( • vote which would have the immediate effect of throwing out the bill, lest he should be identified with prisciplee which were entirely keep to his own eiem, as be believed they were to the view. of the great majority of their lord ship,. (Hear, hear.) On the other bend, he could not but be impreeed with the great difficulties that bad been nig- Clt, awl thought the bast and wisest coons would be to e ed r the further program of the MWMOUIOI for three weeks. The Arelibisiep of CANTERBURY was anxious to guard against the supposition, is voting for the previous question, that he was at all desirous of defeating the object of the bill. He gave the sable and loathed lord credit for the motive with which it was introdthed, bat there were so many and such great difficulties in the way that be heartily desired further time for consideration, and be thought the bill might be fairly postponed till next session. He always looked forward to the probability of the en dowment cornier! from the university itself. The house divided on Lord RLDIBDALI'd amendment. (The previous quretios.)

(Ministerial thews.) IN THE THANES. XL CLIFFORD asked the Secretary at State for the Home t whether his attention had been called to the large of pe tar refuse into the River Thames ; and whether be would set she law in motion to abate • nuisance so prejudicial to the health of the metropolis. Mr. HUTT said that the law for proven ft the dacha:ire of gm water and other imparitaa into the Themes, mat as it was °attained in the Oanestwasity Act of 1807, had been pat in force as far, he believed, as was ramble or mica , able. The Conservancy Board had been extremely vigi lant, and had exerted themselves with vigor° and effect. He was informed that the impurities of whack hie Daiwa ' able friend complained did not premed from premises on the bank , . of the river, bat rather from the musts end °utak ' to which the power of the Conservancy Ad did not attend. This was a great evil, but there was a bill then tinder the consideration of parliament dealing with this @abject, and into that bill • claws regulating this sub might, be thought, with advantage be introdual (Hsu.) POLICY OF THE ALLIED POWERS IN CHINA. Colossi SYKES asked the ljeder Seareary of Sate far Foreign Affairs whether he would lay apes the table of the boom copy of a despatch from Sir F. Brace to Uri Ramell, utiog the joint policy the Ministers of Russia, France. and America had agreed to pursue is China ; and copy of which b• bad ferniabed to Mr. Burlitigheace, the Americas' minister, far commenicatiou to the Americas government, Red to which Mr. Bnringhanie refer in hie despatch to Mr. Seward, dated Pekin, 20th of June, 1863, and marked ♦ of the enclosures. Kr. LAYARD said he did not think it advinble to lay this despatch oil th e table. The boon was aware that this document related not only to the policy of this sonstry, bat to that of the United Mates. Fresco, and Russia, sad he did sot think it would be fair to other power to produce it. Colonel BYRES psi notice that after the moms be would call the enmities of the hoses to the subject. THE BANK LOT, 1844. Mr. HUBBARD, on behalf of Mr. floypte, saked the Chancellor of the Excheqoar whether, taking into account the root looms* of the trade and commerce of Rogked is the last thirty yearn, be was of opinion that the anasp• meni of 1844.1imiting the Bank of England Joan issue of fourteen millions of bank notes, without • omeaspouding amorist of told, was now commenannte with the daly ma atotary requirements of the country. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said the question hardlyadmitted of an intelligent tamer without armed statstuent on the subject of the eniventry. He might, however, refer to what he had stated • few days ago. that is his opinion the essential principle of the Bank Act of 1844 had been proved by experiment to be sound and necessary for the regulation of the mowelary affairs of the country. (Hear, hear.) Bat there wee a subsidiary sad second provision of the act with regard to which be thought it would be convenient that the attendee of boa gentlemea ai4ht be drawn. With respect to do particular points alluded to in the question, all he could say was, than he was a ooeeseting party to the substance of that para graph of the report of the committee of 1848 with niggard to the lase of 14,000,000 i. of Bask Dotes by the Bank of &wised on securities. There was a popular implessioa that the died of an addition to the issue on securities wouLl add to the practical available circulating medium of the country. That view the committee declared to be enttnly erraiseoub sad is that opinion of tits committee he (the Gbaaallor of the Exchequer) entirely coecurrect. (Hear, hear.) LAMBETH DEGREES IN MEDICINE. Colonel FRENCH asked the Seorerary of Stale for the Home Department if it was the feet that the Arshbehop of Canterbury had the power to confer the title of Doctor of Medicine on persons who had not undergone so esami- nation before the College of Physicians. Sir G. GREY said be had sot bees able to aseistaiis what were the facts of this subject, and could only state that under an old statute the Archbishop of Canterbury had the power of conferring the degree of Doctor of Mediciae. (Laughter.) That power was hardly recognised by the late Medical Act, which required certain qualifications on the pert of the ma nn upon whom the degree of N.D. was me tarred. He 'mold sot say positively bow the case sow stood, hut b• might state that the present Archbishop bad never esercied the power. (Laughter.) Colossi FRENCH—It was exercised in 1838. (" Hear, hear," and laughter.) CONVICTION OF GIFSIDI IN CORNWALL Sir G. GREY—I answered • question the other everting which wail pat to me by the boo. member fee Northampbse shire relative to thel•Dt4llol, passed upon 1101110 Meeks is Cromwell, who were alleged to have bees committed for sleeping under • tent. Since then I have written to the committing magistrate, requesting him to furnish me with the minutes of evidence and a report of the rem. It tamed out, as I expect•J, that they were committed nadir the Vagrancy Act, and sot for say dream such as that of sleeping undeT• tent. I have rewired • letter from the • lioglotrate. which, S. justice to him, 1 desire to to nod the Llama. It Iso kaolin : " Lek ot Vicarage, Mar 12.—Having received thin ssors log your letter of the 10th instant, requesting lee to fursith you with a full report of the case of the committal of the sissies by me, I beg to communicate to you the following particulars. At Bruth, some few days before the com mittal, one of them was apprehended by the police for vagrancy, and was discharged on her promising to illl9o the neighbourhood ; instead of doing which she was found the following day at Cambortie, only three miles of, telling tartness. On another day rubsequant. a sae sod woman of the party were found sleeping toge ther under a waggoc which did not belong to them, and again cautioned by the police. On the Saturday previous to my committal the whole party ware found os the estate of Trelissick, in the parish of St. Edit, where they did a great deal of injury, breaking down tree, and lighting fires, when the police swig cautioned them, sad finding them there again on Monday, vpreheaded them and broughtthem to me. They had pained through the wagers part of the county, between Redruth and St. Win begging and tellies fortunes. The superintendent of police had gives particular directions to the polio, to watch them, as there had bees many thefts committed is that part of the county, sad this party of gigolos had been suspected of being connected with them. When the party were brongbt before me, I examined them individually and collectively, and found that they had oo visible mesas of lataristonse, and could giro no satisfactory motorist of thassiolvin. Madre these circumstances, for tbo isfsty of the orsualy, I coast dared it in; duty to mamma them." PERSONAL EXPLANATION. Mr. LOW E remand mid—fir, I have to solicit for a few moments the indulgence of the house once more, to mate a short personal explanaticia, and 1 need that indulgence very greatly, because I am quite aware that the case is one of first impreeerne, and I may &ppm, though I hope wrongly, to keeper too notch on the indulgence of the house in what 1 am going to sty. (Hear, beer.) lost treeing a document was produced of which I had no notice—of which I Led no knowledge—end of which it was impossible for me to give any account satisfactory to the house, without searching the records of the Privy Council-offici. Upon that docu ment a statement was brooded that, though what I had said to the house on a former occasion was true ha intent, it was absolutely false in fact. Now, I am not accustomed to have the words " absolutely fal se " connected with any statement of mine— ( heer, hear)—even when coupled with the explanation that my intent was to speak the truth nor eau I regard it as a matter of ioditferenoe that it should be cancelled in that way. I therefore throw myself u po n the indulgence of the hones to enable use to axplain what that document really is, and to give them the result of the researches I have wade respecting it. I know I ought, in accordance with the rules of the house, to have rises in my place at once, but I wee unable to do so. There are two kids of inspectors' reports, the owe general, which are made for the purpose of being submitted to par 'lamest on the general state of the districts which the in- I @nectars impact. It is is reference to these reports that the minute of 1861 wesmade ; it is with reference to these report. that the T*ooloo°ll°l the home of the 12th of April last was passed ; it is with reference to these reports slam that the explanation I offered on the 19th April was made ; and it is with reference to these reportsthat the oncemisionhooved for last night by her Majesty's government was appointed. There is a second kind of report which is also made by the inspectors, which may be celled • special or particular report. It is the report of the inspector on each school that he inspects.

No doubt we bad strong reason for suspect- Mg that that had been the aim ; but never theless we were asked to act upon • state of fans which had sever been judicially established, and which it was sot easy to bring to the test.

(Load ehirare.)__ . . . . E FORSTER maintained that unless we settled this question of international law before we went to war, two results would follow--ourrnerehaste would have to sell their ships to the merchants of other math's, our sailors would be out of employ, and the sources of our navy would be dried up. This ought aot to be coasidered as a qamtios merely between North and South. It was an Gr ottiest opportunity for estabbehing math a state of the law as other countries might follow. Then came the particular question of acme to our ports. On this point he thought the Attorney-General had led the house somewhat out of the true course. He had transferred the question from cue as to whether thee@ particular ships should have their rights gives to them into this— whether =should TOM* wracif the Osafederate navy with the punishmeat of exclusion from our courts, because clue or two of their vessels bad violated their neutrality. Asother point which the Attothey.G•nentl took was, that it was hardly fair to take such a strong step before we had proof of the breach of =ninthly. But was there any moral doubt, even as between the two govern ments, of the breach of that neutrality? (Heir, hear.) Be (blr. Forster) could not pretend to define what inter. =Mona' law was. But he thought it was so far founded ups good sense that a layman might form an opinion e it. He believed it amongst other thing to be this—s uch an meat between nations ea that individuals of • nudes not be allowed by the sovereign pewee to levy war spit= • foreign state without the have of the sovereign. The circumstance that the Feder* had found it difficult to ad at sea in this struggle _sad the Oct. • federates had found it easy, was coo with which a neutral had nothing to do, and which he might fairly call upon the belligerents themselves to deal with the best way they contd.

Did any man believe such • state of things scald have existed, and that we could have remained at peace with America? (Hoar, hear.) The America= had DO alternative, for to have blockaded all =atrial perks mild have been to blockade all the polio I. the world.

Mr. OOBDEN said that is matters of international law it was in the power of any country to lay down mar** and precedents which themselves breams ia:er national law, and we had lost • precious occasion of pissing *twelves in a better for the future if we ever went to war again. (Hear . ) it was sot merely in time of war that they would feel the offsets of this state of things.

The only t_h_l_at s yen could do was to conciliate the Americassod to ray that henceforth you would deny itj to those remelt which bad been built in our ports, which bad left clandestinely, which had left armed is our ports, manned is our porta, and which went English ships altogether.

The report stated that the board could sot ruse mosey at lase than four-anda-half per amt., unless the government would guarantee the repayment of the debt, as they dad with the Yale Drainage Scheme, in which case they could ggetN the loan at three-aed-threequarters per cent. The chairman of the board represented to the Chancellor of the Etch oar those facts, and he recommended the Lords of the ry to give the guarestee, provided the board would introduce late any bill for carrying out that object a power to charge the rates of the metropolis with say deli eiesey which might arise in the funds low appropriated by parhuneet to meet the charge. The right hoe. gentleman also suggested that the government might advance the mosey out of the surplus moneys received front savings banks and post-office savings hooks, at a rate of interest of per met. The Lords Commissioners of the Treasury had ina. ted their concurrence in the suggestioss made to them by the Chancellor of the Exchequer. By this arrange ment they would be able to obtain the mosey re, coked foe the execution of the embankment works and the new street on much more reasonable teems than they could have hoped he negotiate a loan in the moray market, and thus s saving to the public to the extent of 18,6001. per annum, or 344,1001. in the whole, would be effected in the payment of interest.
