IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—MONDAT, Aram 20. Is the Holm of Coststoxs, yesterday, on the order of the day for going into committee of supply, Mr. Smozzrrr celled attention to the conduct of the Secretary for India in reference to the Madras Irrigation Company and the East India Irrigation and Canal Company. The former company he said obtained a concession from government which guarantees them interest at the rate of 5 per cent. on a million of capital. The capital had been all expended, and the late Secretary of State had advanced the company 600,000/. The works had yielded no profit, and the ultimate lose to the government he estimated at two millions and a quarter sterling. The East India Irrigation and Canal Company had raised their capital without a guarantee. The Governor-General of Ferolndiawte a despatch to the Secretary for ding that the government should purchase the stock of the company at par, with 50,0001. bonus. That was kept secret fur some time, but at length it was made known, and the stock,which was previously at 25 per cent. discount, immediately rose to par, and the company, thinking that more might be squeezed out of the government, declined the offer. He moved a resolution condemnatory of this policy of the Indian government. Sir S. NORTHCOTE justified the course which bad been taken by his predeoessor in office and by himself. The Madras irrigation works could not have been completed if the advance of 600,000/. bad not been made, and the offer to purchase the East India irrigation works was made on condi tion that the concession to construct works in Behar should be surrendered, andthis was insisted upon because the company had not the means of constructing the works, and the concession pre cluded the government from constructing them. After a few observations from Mr. J. B. SMITH, who expressed an opinion that irrigation works should be undertaken by government, and not by private individuals, The motion was withdrawn. Mr. WATKIN moved for a select committee to inquire into the condition of Ceylon and the action of its government. He said the planters and the natives complained that they were taxed to pay for troops which were kept there, not for the defence of the island, but for imperial pur poses: They also complained of the system of taxation, and of the abolition of the old law which provided for a system of irrigation. Mr. ADDERLEY denied the necessity for a com mittee, and said the real complaint was that Ceylon had been called upon to make her full con tribution to the cost of the troops kept there. Mr. CHILDERS urged on the government, if they would not grant a select committee, the policy of sending out a commission to inquire into the state and government of Ceylon. The motion was negatived. The house then went into committee of supply on the civil service estimates, and several votes in class 1, comprising public works and buildings, were agreed to after a discussion extending over several hours. In the course of the discus sion a point of some importance arose as to the order of proceedings. Mr. Serjeant Gaaelee moved that the vote be reduced by 15,000/. but the Chairman ruled that, as there had been an amendment moved for the reduction of an item, it was incompetent for any member to reduce the whole vote, and this decision he supported by re ference to tho fourth resolution, regulating the procedure of committees. Mr. AYRTON pointed out that this ruling prac tically deprived the house of its power over the estimates, as there might be a vote amounting to millions, and if an objection had been made to an item of Si.,hat would preclude the committee from making any reduction in the total amount. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER on the other hand, submitted that if Mr. Ayrtun's view were the right one, it would be possible to take a vote of the committee on the same subject twice. Mr. AYRTON intimated that he should move to alter the resolution. The Boundary Bill was read a second time. The Petty Sessions and Lock-up Houses Bill and the Prisons (Compensation to Officers) Bill passed through committee. The Titles and Lend Consolidation (Scotland) Bill and the Ecclesiastical Buildings and Glebes (Scotland) Bill were respectively read a second time. _ _ ----- The house adjourned at half-put 12 o'c'ozic. THE NATIONAL SUNDAY LEAOL'E.—The four. teenth annual meeting of this society was held last evening at the Freemasons' Hall, Sir Joshua Web=ley in thechair. Mr. Morrell, the secretary, read letters from Mr. John Crawford, Sir John Horning, Mr. F. Harrison, Dr. Barton, Dr. Carpenter, and others, apologising fur their absence, and sending donations to the league fund. The Chairman expressed his gratification at seeing so large • meeting, as it Showed him that the principles of the league were making great p The bigotry and prejudice by which the league had bees heretofore opposed were ra pidly giving way before the progress of liberal opinion upon religious questions, and he looked forward to the speedy triumph of the objects for which be and they had so long worked, the opening of the museums ' and art galleries to the people on the Sunday afternoons. Mr. Morrell then read the report, congratulating the mem here on the progress made by the league in public opinion, which had been materially assisted by the reports of the artisans sent over by the Society of Arts to the Paris Exhibition last year. In those reports • com plete refutation was given to the assertion of the Sabha tarian party, that the workmen on the continent are compelled to work on Sundays, and that the rule was seven days' work for six days' pay. The groat benefits ex perienced by the Paris workmen from the museums and similar institutions being open to them on the Sunday bad been clearly shown in those reports. The last season of the bands in the parks had been very successful, and with the sanction of the Commissioner of Public Works, the next season would commence in May. The Sunday excursions of last summer hnd been a great success, end would be resumed on the 3rd of next month. The league had sustained • loss in the death of Mr. Etches , of Derby, the largest shareholder in the Crystal alsee, and one of the most strenuous supporters of its Sunday opening. This gentleman, however, bad left his 30,00 W. stock) in the palace company to be devoted in promoting its being opened on the Sunday. During the year 1,630 persons bad wit. scribed to the funds of the league. The total income of the year had been 5811. Os. lid. and the expenditure :44/., leaving a balance of ft. Os . lA. Mr. James Hey. wood, F.R.S., moved the adoption of the report, which was seconded by Mr. Eldridge, and carried. Mr. H. Slack moved, " That this meeting rejoices to witness on all sides the progres of liberal sentiments on religious questions, and believes that the time is not far distant when legis lation will no longer be directed to enforce conformity to the views of any theological stet." Mr. B. Langley seconded the resolution, which was supported by Mr. N. D. Con way, and carried. The committee and officers for the ensuing year having been elected, a vote of thanks to the chairman concluded the proceedings. RAILWAY AND OTHIE BILLS BEFORE PARLIAMINT. —Yesterday the proceedings of the committees and exa miners upon railway and other private bills now pending in parliament were resumed after the Easter recess. In the House of Commons, Mr. Palgrare, one of the exami ners of standing order proofs, held • court, and trans acted the following business. In the nnop ease* of the Brecon and Merthyr Tydfil Junction way and the Dublin, Wicklow, and Wexford Railway (petitions for additional provisions), the examiner declared that the standing orders were not to have been complied with. In the unopposed cases of the Tower Subway Bill (Lor ds), _ and the Uibridge and Rickmanawo r th R a il wa y Bill (Lords), it was decided that the standing orders which bad sot been previously inquired into had been complied with. In the unopposed cases of the Pee River Company Bill (Lords) and the Lewes Water Bill (Lords), the examiner decided that no standing orders which bad not bees pre viously inquired into were applicable. The examiner then proceeded with the consideration of the opposed Electric Telegraphs Bill, and declared the standing orders to have been complied with. GREAT NORTHERN HOSPITAL, CALEDONIAN -ROAD, N.—The committee have received the handsome sum of C. 51 , proceeds of a dramatic fete by the Holloway Volunteer Fire Brigade. 81,000 shillings are now being raised to open the new building, with trcbtt the number of free bids . for the sick poor.

' The part of the Norman Knight, Robert, is one of than in which Signor Naudin appears to moat advantage, as it gives scope for the display of that kind of vocal deolania tion in which this artist chiefly excels. In the carousals of the introductory scene, in the invocation and tempts- tion in the cloisters, the scene with the Princess in she palace, and the 624 straggle with the contending priicei• plea of good and evil, Signor Naudin sang and acted with much power. The secondary character of Raimbaldo was on this occasion, as formerly, efficiently filled by Signor NeriMaraldi ; other subordinate parte being represented by Signori Tagliafleo, (append, km. The choruses, so important a feature in this great work, with de elaborate finales, were excellently given through out, from the introductory carousal of knights and the somewhat vulgar climax to the first act, to the masterly and highly wrought finale to the fourth act (much abridged, however), and the priestly music in the fifth act. It is scarcely necessary to say bow finely the pic turesque details of the instrumental accompaniments were rendered by the splendid orchestra over which Mr. Coate presides hen; or how effectively the exquisite ballet music was given by the band. Of the splendour of the scenic arrangements it is also unnecessary to remind those who have witnessed the effects of this kind which are peculiar to this theatre while to those who have not it would be hopeless to con vey, by description, any idea of the vest gloomy grandeur of the cloister same and its conversion into light and bril liancy with the unearthly revels of the resuscitated nuns. In this scene of elaborate ballet action • new dancer, Sicilia Doe, made her first appearance as Elena, the principal nun, and achieved • decided success by her excellent dancing, being called on at the end of the act. NAVAL AND MILITARY. PORTSMOUTH, APRIL 99. The Hotspur, Indian hired transport, arrived at Spithead this morning from Calcutta. She has brought home invalids and time expired men.

Tido was • toiei taus his fariii;k7;rilitient • jury upon • question of fest. via, whether there was or were say, and what child or children of Thomas Sayer. living on the 10th day of June, 1861, or born after that date. The bill was fihd by two illegitimate children of Thomas Sayer., to whoa' in the exercise of a power of appointment reserved to him in the settlemest of the fund collected for him after his Sgbt with Heenan he had bequeathed the sum of 3,0001. This power was dependent on his not leaving any legitimate children, and the will contained • rental to the effect that he bad not any sash children. It appeared, however, that in addition to the plaintiffs there wars three other children born of the mother of the plaintiffs, who before the birth of these three ohildren had become the wife of Sayer., from whom, however, she soon separated. Mn. Sayers took refuge with a cabman, while Sayers lived with the wife of his brother. All the parties lived in the neighbourhood of Camden-town, and it was proved that, the separation not. withstanding, Mr. and Mrs Sayer, were in the habit of meeting both at public and private houses. The evidence was coullisting. Mr. Baggall ay, Q. C., Mr. C. Barber, and Mr. Francis were for the plain t ; Mr. Jesse!, Q.C., and Mr. Bain for the defendants. His Lordship held that there were three children born of Thomas Sayers and Sarah, his wile, one born before and two after the date of the settlement. (Before Vioe•Chancellor Gifford.) LYON V. HONE.—CAVE OF THE BPIRMIALIRT LEADER. This important ease which has been looked forward to with the greatest interest for some months past, as well by members of the lips profession as by gm leader of the spiritualists and his friends, was oonunenced this afternoon. Kr. W. M. James, Q.C., who with Mr. Pincher ap pears for the plaintiff, opined the case by stating that the complainant was a widow lady who sought to recover from the defendant, Mr. Dundee Home, the celebrated spiritualist, several large sums of money, which she had at different times made over to him, on the ground that at the time when she did so she was imposed upon by the defendant's representations that he was oonveying to her the wishes of her deceased husband, and that she acted under the ascendency and influence which the defendant had to obtained over her mind. The circumstances as stated lin she opening were briefly these—that 3ln. Lyon, having been introduced to Mr. Home by a friend of hers in October, 1866, was persuaded by him that through his means die was on several occasions placed in communica tion with her deceased husband, with which she was so much pleased that she first gave Mr. Home SOL u a subscription to his " Atheneum" in filoanenreet, and afterwards 501. mare. On the 10th of October, seven days only after the first interview, Home obtained from her 24,0001. sterling. Shortly after wards she was told it was her husband's wish that she should destroy her will, and make the defendant her universal legatee. In December Mr. Home assumed the name of Lyon in addition to that of Home ; and in the same month Mrs. Lyon was induced to sell out 6,000 1 . odd Consols, and give the proceeds of this sum also to the defendant ; and, finally, in January, she made over a sum of 30,000/. to the defendant, reserving to herself only a life interest. In Mardi, 1867, Mr. Home invested 20,0001. in a mortgage, and shortly after the plaintiff, finding, as she said, that she bad been deluded, filed this bill. A ne 'exest regno was obtained against Mr. lime under which he was arrested, but the matter was ar ranged, and the defendant had submitted to the juris diction by paying and transferring the sums be had ob tained from Mrs. Lyon into court. Mr. James had only commenced to read Mrs. Lyon's affidavit, in which she narrates in detail what took place at the various interviews and seances which she bad with the defendant, when the cowl rose. . _ _ Mr. Kay, Q.G., Mr. Henry Matthews, Q.C., Mr. God frey Luenington, and Mr. Fitzroy Kelly ire the other counsel engaged.

Mrs. Pratt, a poor needlewoman, attended by many others in the same condition as herself, applied to the magistrate for kis advice and assistant* under the follow ing eiretiesstsnoes Several advertisements have lately appeared in the Clertrarell Rem offering bead work to people to execute, but requiring a small deposit for security of the goods given out. The advertisement bore no name. but appli cants were directed to apply to No. 4, Jewin-street, Ahleregateetreet. Upwards of 30 poor women and girls went there in answer to the advertisement, and sack made deposits of from 2e. 6d. to 155., according to the work they took. Their work cow leted, they took it home, and were told to call on Satur ay for their money. When they called on that Saturday there was nobody in the office, but a notice was put up stating that Mr. D. Wilson would meet the workpeople on the following Wednesday, pay them for their work, and return them their deposits. When they went on that day, another notice was put up putting off the day of payment till another day, and so it had been going on till the present time. When they called on Saturday last, the notice requested them to call on next Saturday, but as there appeared to be no pros pect of ever seeing Mr. D. Wilson, they had come to this court to see if they could obtain any redline. Mr. Martin, chief clerk, said it looked very like a fraud, and if Mn. Pratt would bring him a copy of the ad vertieement, he would see what redress the worthy alderman could give her. Mrs. Pratt thanked the chief clerk, and withdrew. ITALY. TURIN, APRIL 20.
