I ii s s I - IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. lir the Horse of Coaxer/vs yesterday, Mr. WTLII moved the second reading of the County. Fi nancial Boards Bill. The bill was permissive, butj might be applied, if a majority of the boards of guardians in a county determined that it should be. When the act was applied, the boards of guardians and the magistrates would elect an equal number of members of the board, and the board thus constituted would have a general control over the expenditure of the county, reserving certain matters however to the magistrates. A lengthened discussion followed, most of the speakers supporting the principle of representation, but there was much difference of opinion as to the details of the measure, and also as to whether the general subject, or the bill, should be referred to a select committee. On a division the second reading was rejected by 1Z,4 to 46, but the subject was referred to a select committee. Sir C. O'Le.;III.EN moved the second reading of the Peerage (Ireland) Bill. The bill, he said, pre vented the further creatiouof Irish peers, by which means the body would in time become extinct. Colonel FREN( . II opposed the bill as inexpedient, and as a violation of the Act of Union. Mr. G. Hsunv submitted that, as the bill trenched on the prerogatives of the crown, it could not leave the house without the consent of the crown. Sir C. OlountEN then withdrew the bill. The Artisans and Labourers Dwellings Bill, as amended, was considered. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said the bill required improvement in its machinery, and moved the ad journment of the debate till that day week, and after some discussion this motion waa agreed to. The house adjourned at a quarter to six o'clock. ELECTION INTELLIGENCE. BRIKTOL. The polling for this election took place yester .l.ky, and was continued amidst much exatencent through out the day. The liberal party had confidently anticipated the success of their candidate, Mr. Morley, thinking that the majority of well nigh a thousand which Sir Morton Pato had at the last election ought at any rate t) be maintained. Mr. Miles, the conservative and local candi date, however, took the lead from the commencement, and although the liberals pulled up a little towards the close of the day, be was returned by a considerable ma- Trity. The numbers were at the close of the poll: 'Morley, 4,8:4 ; Miles, 5,03.4 ; majority for Mr. Miles, 204. It is said that the return will be petitioned against, and during the day several men were arrested for personation and rioting. qOUTR LINCOLNSHIRE. Mr. Welby, conservative, was returned for south Lincoln hire yesterday without opposition. He spoke aainst Mr. Gladstone's resolutions on the Irish Church. gTIRLING BUR;HS.

Things are rapidly tending towards a peaceful revolution. The schoolmaster is abroad. Old lines are being gradually wiped out from the slate and new figures being inscribed. There is an evident want of some order of things better suited to the times than our old consti tution. Theories of government should be adapted to existing facts. The 0,4 is so fully aware of this that, taking actual circumstances as its guide, it propose ;to the natiJix a skeleton scheme— oN,TEECTION. NEW 9( ILENE.

It was founded in 1561, is in a eery healthy locality, and within easy distance of London. The qualification for admission is apparent in curableness. and already the records of the charity show that the worst of cases are not beyond hope. Necessa rily with so wide a qualification there mast he some idea ties ; hence the insane, idiotic, and other classes of special disease, are not competent for admission. As the is intended chiefly to aid persons who have been in well. to-do positions , those who are fit subjects for parochial relief are not eligible for inmateship. By means of elec . Lion, annuities of :11. are eenfened upon murk as are in curable, but sot wholly destitute, in eider that they may continue to reside with friends or relatives who may be able to render them some further assistance. Since the charity was founded there have been 11 elections, and 121 i candidates have been cleated, via., 54 in-patients and 71 out-patients, with annuities of '2lBi. Some few have also bees admitted on payment. At the annual dinner, held last night at Willis s Rooms, the clams of this exce ll ent institution were eloquently advocated by the chairman, Earl Cameroon, and other gentlemen. It seems that the building at Clapham-rise is rapidly tilling up, and that the board am about to make efforts to secure fresh premises adjoiping. The annual subscription' and donations during last year were a little over 8.000 r., but increased funds are required trumpet the demands of the charity. Daring the evening large subscriptions were handed in. SMYRNA AND CAKSARA RAILWAY COMPANY (Li- MITEDI.—The half-yearly meeting was held yesterday, at the cakes, No. 8 Old Jewry ; Mr. J.

The anniversary meeting of this society was held yesterday, in the society's house, in Hanover-square. The chair was taken at 1 p.m. by Viscount Walden, the pre sident of the society. The report of the auditors was read by Mr. K Greenaway. After some other prelimi nary business, the report of the council on the proceedings of the society during the past year was read to the meet ing by Mr. P. L. &Later, Ph. D. F.R.S., the secretary. It stated that the number of mem bers of the society on the :31st of December last was 2,702, showing an increase of 243 members during the year leo7. The number of fellows elected and readmitted during that year had been 328, while only 85 vacancies had taken place. The total in come of the society during the past year was stated to have been 25,3411., exceeding the income of the previous year by the sum of 662/., and being the largest amount ever re ceived by the society in any single year, except on the occa sion of the Great and International Exhibitions. The ordi nary expenditure of the society for tin year 107, under which head had been placed every item requisite to keep the society's establishment in • perfect state of efficiency, was stated to have been 21,516/. Besides this, sums altogether amounting to 4,6:di. bad been de voted to new buildings in the society's gardens, and to certain special acquisitions for the meuegerie. The excess of expenditure over income bad been met by the sale of 2,00 W. worth of exchequer bills, the produce of the surplus revenue of 1856. The balance at the society's bankers on the Ist of January of the present year was stated to have been 2,2281. Besides this, the society pos sessed a reserve fund, consisting of the sum of 10,010/.

The erection of this building bad enabled the council to arrange the society's tine collection of the larger deer of the old world together in a collective aeries, in • manner that was not passible under previous arrangements. The old Wapiti-house, on the north side of the gardens, in which the greater portion of these animals had been previously kept, had been entirely removed, and thR ground cleared preparatory to the erection of a new building to bold the society's col lection of elephants and rhinoceroses, which since the recent increase of the numbers of these huge animals had become • matter of pressing necessity. Various other improvements and enlargements which had been effected in the society's gardens during the past year were also specified. The total number of visitors to the society's gardens in the year 1867 was stated to have been 556,214, being 28,865 more than in the year 1866, and • Luger number than there had been in any Irechling year, except the two Exhibition years 851 and 1802. The total number of animals to the society's menagerie on the let of January last was stated to have been 2,olo—namely, 531 quadrupeds, 1,320 birds, and 131 reptiles.

BART FARMING AT DEPTIORD.—MT. CATUAT re sumed, on Tuesday night, at the Globe Tavern, Lower road, Deptford, the inquiry relative to the , ieath of a male child, the illegitimate son of Mrs. Elizabeth Starner. The deceased was born on the ssd instant, and an boar after its birth a Mrs. Billups, a midwife, well known in the coroner's court, said, "That child can't live," and sent it out in the cold to Dr. Anderson's surgery. That gentle man'. assistant, Mr. F e r n *, found that the child was really dyiug from the effectsOf an injury to the side of the head. He ordered some remedies and the child lived for two days. Dr. Anderson said that the death arose from a flattening of the side of the head, caused either by a fall or a blow. Mrs. WAIT' stated she knew nothing of any injury being inflicted on the child, as did also the other women who had been mentioned in the case. The coroner said that the case was a very disgraceful one, but it would be impamilde ter the jury to sin& eat any one of the four peewee; either of whore, it was very Glen, must have inflicted the injury which causal death. $7 returning an open verdict the case would be so left that it could be reopened if additional evidence could be pro cured. The jury rsressd a verdict, -"Tint the deoemed died from injuries to the bead ; but how or by whom the said injuries were inflicted there is no evidence to show. The jury censure Mrs. Billups and three other persons con cerned for their conduct in sending the deceased child out in the inclement weather immediately after birth." The same coroner resumed and concluded at the Telegraph Tavern, Evelyn-street, Deptford. the inquest on the body cd the male child of • domestic servant named Jana George. On the evening of the 39th March the young woman in question left her place and wont to her mother's at 41 4 . , Alpert-street. She complained of being ill, but said nothing of the reason. In the morning she gave birth to the deceased, and Mrs. Billups was called in, and took away the child an hour after birth. Mr& Billups it would appear, lives in a cellar, and thither she took the child. She attended to it, but she prophesied that it would soon die, and her prediction was fulfilled the next day. Dr. Fisher, who made • post-mortem examination of the body, found that a quantity of water had been im bibed, and that death had resulted from convulsions. Whether the imbtMtlbn of the water had caused the con- millions or not her amid, nqi viz Mrs. Billups said that she' bad placed the childlifa bat because it was ill, but she could not account for this-water found in the body. No additional light was toroth upon the affair. The roroner severely reprimanded Mrs. Billups and the mother for their conduct towards the child. As there was no evi dence to prove that death was wound by violence, be ad aceor vised the jury to return an even carafe*, sib's& wee ly done.

LONDON.--lAdvt MUSIC. ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA. A new tenor singer, M. Lefranc (not announced in Mr. Gye's prospectus of the season), made big first ep. poaranee here on Tuesday night as Arnaldo, in Gnalielono Tell, which was given after an interval of three years. This crowning work of Rossini's genius, produced at Paris in 1829, is sufficient justification for the great master's after Wanes. The composer of Ii BarbVrr, La Qua Ladra, Cenerentola, and other inch works, had abundantly proved the possession of a rich vein of melodic beauty, brilliant impulsive genius, and constructive siill ; but for the picturesque, the tragic or heroic, or any deeply emotional style, neither his Tancredi, Donna del Logo, his Otello, or his Setairamide revealed much special power. With the last-named work Rossini's Italian career terminated, is Ifft3 ; and six years later his Tell proved him a complier possessed of high dramatic faculties and poetical imagina tion, in this instance thoroughly manifested, and probably not to have been again approached by the same band. Through all changer of taste Guillaume Tell mast ever re main, while dramatic musical art and genies are appre ciated, an example of the highest order of both. The dis tinct colouring of the music, so especially identifying it with its some and subject—the heroic elevation of Tell and Arnold ; the imperious energy of Geissler ; and the exquisite grace and refinement, and tender pathos, of the PrincessrMathilde ; are all reflected in a work the power and beauty of which could only eman►te from column mate art and genius. In grand concerted effects, too, in music of combination, scarcely anything in the whole range of opera transcends the great scene of the meeting of the cantons. The work is admirably given, both in its inimical and stage details. It is to be regretted tint the late hour of eonirnenocment now fixed by custom should render necessary such large retrenchments in the music, merry of the pieces being so abridged u largely to injure those proportions and that balance which they possess in their original shape, as constructed by the great composer. The alterations, too, at the close of the opera are by no means improvements. PHILHARMONIC SOCIETY. The third concert of the season took place on Monday night, when tho following was the programme of the performance: PART I. Symphony in Bat _ Mozart. Soma from the Basler Cantata "Lazarus": Nclinbert. Onteetto, Violin 'No. 5 Noma, " dottly sighs" k " Der Yrepiehnts") Overture Op. 12S , PART IL _ _ . _ _ Reformation Symphony Mandelmohn. Aria, " La mode del ablate" Gazzanica. Overture, " Les dram learners" The Symphonies, emit a masterpiece of its kind, preset ted a strong contrast between the clearly-defined form and symmetrical construction of that by Mozart, and the freer scope by which Mendelasohn, following the example of Beethoven, sought to make a great orchestral work reflec tive of SOON avowed train of poetical thought, 'tither than an adherence to the dant& precedent fixed end almost exhausted by the earlier great masters, Haydn and Mozart. NEW PHILHARMONIC CONCERTS. The seventeenth season commenced last night, in St. George's Flail (as last year). The orchestral works performed were Schumann's overture to Manfred,Nioolars to the Merry Wires of Windom.

Mr. Humphreys, solicitor, conducted the insepecution. The prosecutor, Henry Coleman, who is at' present a patient in St. Mary's Hospital, was carried into court in an arm-chair, end it appeared from the evidence be gave that he bad been a passenger in the steamship Somerset shire, from Melbourne, which reached this country lot month. When he went on board be was an invalid, and as he gradually got worse he eventually wentinto tbeship's hospital, and during the voyage be was attended by the prisoner, whose passage money he had paid, and from whom he had received an acknowledg ment of the loan. On the vessel arriving at Blackwell the prisoner left, and the prosecutor then missed • bill of exchange for 1151., the I 0 IT he had received from the prisoner, and hi . or 6/. in gold. Immediat e ly a ft er this it sppe ared that the prisoner went to Greenwich, and, producing the bill, and representing himself to be henry Coleman succeeded in obtaining advances amount ing to 17/. upon it from the cellarman at • public-house called the Ship's Stores.

Norwich, was placed at the bar before Mr. Alderman Gib bons, charged on his own confession with having committed a felony. Inspector Foulger said that about half-past 2 o'clock on Tined ,y afternoon the prisoner came to the Fleet-street police-station, and said he wished to give himself up, as I he was one of the men who blew down the wall of the House of Detention. The prisoner was then drunk. He raid there were three of than in it, and one of them offered him sa. if he would fire the barrel of gun powder. He twisted up a piece of paper and set it alight. After that he heard a bsng, and saw a house fall down. There was • great deal of dust and oonfusion, and he helped the people to get out, and then he lo o ked for the man who had promised Dim the money, but he was gone. Next morning the prisoner was sober, and said that he knew nothing about it. He belongs to the 3rd Middlesex Militia, and came np for training. There was no doubt that what the prisoner said wee the wild imagina tion of a drunkard's brain. He gave a correct address. The prisoner said he bad been on the drink " ever since last Friday evening. Alderman Gibbons asked whether Inspector Foulger had come to the conclusion be had from the prisoner's state went or from inquiries be had made himself. Inspector Foulger said from both. The prisoner hail been reading the trials at the 1)1.1 Bailey, sad he supposed they had got into his head. But from the inquiries he bad made he found the prisoner was not in London at the time of the Clerkenwell explosion.
