GOWER mid he felt at mime Ines to know what 1111111 the nel view entertained by the hoc. baronet (Sir S. Northoote), and what was the comae which, at the end of him speech, he recommended her Majesty's government to • take. For himself, be feared that the hasty adoption of • declaration like that which bad been proposed might tend very much to our disadvantage. Mr. CAVE said that the motion of his hon. friend had been stigmatised as being the offspring of a emulous philan thropy, and am leading to political suicide. But that phi. lanthropy, if spurious, originated with the Congress of Para; and if suicidal, dated from that event. (Hear, hear.) After that declaration it was impossible for them to remain sta tionary ; they must go either backwards or forwards, and humanity summoned them to go forwards. Sir F. GCLDSMID hoped the government would adopt • policy alike firm and temperate in dealing with foreign states. If unfortunately they should be engaged in war, the people, he believed, would endure the hardships necessary in such • state of things, but he did pot think the government ought unnecessarily prolong those sacrifices by unwisely surrendering that right of maritime capture which Mr. Marcy said, and said truly, conferred the most im portant adenines on the greatest of the maritime powers. Lord H. VANE hoped that the hon. member for Liver pool would not press his resolution to • division, although he quite agreed.with him that the present state of the law on this subject was unsatisfactory. He agreed with the sentiment of the noble lord at the head of her Majesty's government, that war was not decided by the low, to be endured. Individuals must necessarily to e certain degree suffer during war, bat he hoped that the effect of the pee sent discussion would be to Isom the horrors which attended it. The sufferings of individuab ld, be trusted, be lessened, but oars should be taken not to our means of bringing war to a speedy termination. Weer.) Mr. Bylaw; expressed his supra' to hear hum the hon. eel learned gentleman, the Lord Advocate. that private property on lead was not free from violation end interfireace during war.

If the psopoalmods would promote it he was at a leas to see how it could be objected to ; if, on the other band, he thought it would in any way interfere with that supremacy, he would not think of supporting it. It was said that the great security of Boglaad lay in the fact that she pommies • greater naval force then any other country ; but while that was admittedly so, the fact that the commerce of the country which required pro tection, and which, skit were, presaged a water mutate of attack to an enemy, was promtieneask (Hear. bear.)

I It was quite tree that the declaration of Paris in favour of neutrals was not likely to be such a delusion as the proposal that ell private ships should be respected at sea, 'because there was a powerful interest to back that declaration. But the very sh F el that oombination was the danger of our interest; sad he feared that when once the effects the desiaratioa of Paris were tested by war, this country would be sorely tempted to set that de claration adds, sad in doing eo eke would necessarily incur the hostility and odium attaching to a non-adherence to t= r„.., which hitherto, thank Gad, had never the motion of the English government. He admitted that this declaration was not the copse queue* of am act of indiscretion. The govern ment had been pursuing an anti-national policy and endeavouring to preppie a cosmopolitan idea. The same errors, but on a more extended scale, characterised society in Frail - Celt the first and most dreadful revolution in that °pantry. He trusted that the practical character of the people of England would guani them from such delusions ; but, at the same time, it was idle to look forward to • period of perpetual peace, remembering how many prophecies on that subject they had seen falsified within the last few years. Mr. MASSEY contended that no nation was ever brought to terms by the destruction of its commerce. It had been said that if we were to enter into a treaty such as that mentioned by his hon. friend, it would be abrogated by war; but the answer to this was, that all other stipulation were undoubtedly annulled by war. He might be asked to what did he trust to maintain the inte grity of inch a treaty •. He trusted to the integrity of public opinion, whose dominion had increased, and was in creasing. (Hear ' hear.) He trusted to that public opinion which spared Odessa in the late Crimean war, and which would be found in future contests more power ful than artil lery to restrain the avenging arm of war from visiting harm less cities. It appeared that they were not to have that night the sanction of our leading statesmen to the proposition of his hon. friend. He regretted that circumstance, but he Well not discouraged or carpe re d at it.

Under these circumstances, be appealed to his hon. friend not to prime his motion to a &Adm. Mr. BRIGHT thought that the motion was so framed that it might be accepted by the government sod leave it open to them hereafter to found some course of action upon it, supposing that the feeling of the house was ascertained to be in its favour. He argued that the rise of the rearms tile marine of America had rendered necessary these °images in the principles of maritime law, which bed hist been promulgated during the Russian war, and by which the doctrine that the neutral flag covered enemies' goods, and which was the basis of the declaration of Pa* - -as established. inevitable sod UNION OF THE CITY BENEFICES. Viacount EVFIELD asked the Secretary of State for the Home liertinent whether the provisions of the Union of the City &rotfires Act, passed in the session of MO, had yet• been put into operation ; and if not, what wore the reasons for such delay. Sir G. GREY was sorry he could not ( in the information asked. He was not aware that any case had yet occurred in which the provisions of the art had come into opera tics ; but with the enforcing of those provisions it was not in the power of the government to interfere.

Mr. LINDSAY, on behalf of the hon. member for Rochdale (Mr. Cobden, in whose name the debate stood ad journed), regretted to say that hie boa. friend had informed him that be was suffering from an extreme cold, which made him so hoarse as utterly to incapacitate him from taking part in the debate, though he hoped to be able to do so at a later period of the evening. He therefore hoped the house would allow him to offer a few remarks on the ques tion now under discussion. He certainly thought his lionolusble friend (Mr. Honda) had taken the only coons which was open to him ; and that if he oteradered the present Mats of international law to be un satisfactory, he was quite right in stating that opinion to the house.

The honourable member did not ask the house then to come to au absolute decisionon the question. His motion was not brought forward to embarrass or to be in hostility to the government—(hear, hear)—it was intended to offer to parliament a fair and free opportunity for discussion. That discussion had taken place ; and the subject had been handled with various ability by speakers on both sides of the house, but, on the whole, with great candour and great fairness. Notwithstanding the dec tato of the noble lord, he would now perhaps think that he had been rather precipitate in the expression of his opinion, and he (Mr. Bright) should not be surprised to find before log an unanimous cabinet—if only foreign nations were willing to give their adhesion to the principle; and from his own information he could state that they were so disposed. (Ironical cheers.) There was no doubt about the United States ; there was no doubt about Russia ;be believed there was no doubt about Pianos ; and whenever the people of this country should have made up their minds upon this question, and parliament should enable the go• vernment to act, he believed there would be found ao difficulty on the part of say fa nip nation.

He urged, on the other bend, the evils that would spring from adopting the recoromendation of Mr. Rainfall, and pointed out what he oonsidered to be fallacies in the attempt to establish an ambit, between maritime welfare and warfare on land.

He dwelt upon the iIIOODYISIOSCOI and the difficulties attending that declaration, whisk pm up a point of importance, abandoning • safeguard and protection of our maritime ra pretnaey, and be called foe some more cogent argument in de Amor if it were to be binding upon us, or for some u. aunties that this one-sided declaration shall be, if possible, amended. and the more remote those other nations are the more likely such quarrels will be to arise. In the case of those distant countries your navy will obviously be the coly means you will lave by which to extort redress. It may be aaid ' perhaps, that you might bombard their towns. But that is not • aurae that any one would re commend you to adopt. It would, in fact, be much worse than taking private property, for it would be destroying numbers of people who have had nothing to do with the cause of quarrel between the two coun tries—(hear, hsar)—sad what is the claw in this country who are not interested in maintaining the power of our navy ? Clearly it is those who, having transactions with foreign nations, are more s likely than any other to Le the objects and subjects of injury and wrong. (Hear, hear.) I should hope that under these circumstances the bon. gentleman will be satisfied with the debate which has arisen, and with the very conflicting support which he has received from differeut hon. members—(la4oW) I think the hon. gentleman would himself be at a lea to know what is the sense which hie resolution is understood to beer ; and I should hope, therefore, that lie will be con tent with the mysterious vagueness in which it has been in volved. I trust he will be satisfied with the very sensible speech, barring the opinions it cootained—(loud laughter)— which he has made, and that he will not think it Deosseary to press his motion to a division. (Loud cheers.) Mr. ELSRAELI—I will only detain the house for • ao mat while I state the course which I intend to purees with regard to this motion. I think there cannot be two opinions as to the importance of the debate. To my mind the subject of it is the most important that an engage our attention.. I put it far higher than the subject of parlia- mentary reform, even when that was a fact—namely, in the year 18:12. (Laughter.) The discussion on that occasion related to the distribution of power in England but to-night it relates to the distribution of power in Europe sad in the world. (Hear, hear.) Now, bow has this question arisen? No doubt it is to be traced to the declaration of Paris. I cannot agree with what has fallen from the Solicitor-General with regard to the merchants, except so far as roper their courage and patrici an. It seems to me that it is in core quer" of their fear of • war with a foreign state that this discussion has taken place. By the de claration of Paris we gave up a cardinal point in or maritime code—(cheers)—and I think the noble lord bas bra as rjust as he has been unancceinful in his endea vour tenor that the &hate hem been sot up oat el mud to the individual interests of the commercial classes. There is • feeling that the great change which has taken place in our maritime code may prove pre- Judicial to the supremacy of our naval power. This is not a question of merely the shipping interest, it is a guard° which macro the maritime strength of this eanntry. If in esnesrisoce of the principle which you have declared, that the Bag shall cover the cargo, you con vert the commerce of the country into neutral bottoms, yon will have dealt • severe blow to our maritime power. The maritime population will accompany the carrying trade, and if you have not a preponderating maritime population you orianot have • preponderating naval power. But the noble lord say, " You have got ships, and ships cannot be made in • day. " But I suppose that the shipowners, if their ship were not wanted, would take care to sell them. (Hear, hear.) Then I say this is • most important co.- sideration. If you take • step which in reality sacrifices a cardinal point of your maritime code, that is • circumstance which may surely impair your maritime power. This debate dose not merely concern the interests of the shipowners it has been conducted without any of the heat and misrepresentation of party, but it is one of an importance and interest which will long and frequently occupy the attention of the house. blear, hear.) The noble lord has certainly treated this subject in a most extraordinary way. He has given ab emir reasons in favour of the change. It is very extra ordinary that so overtopped • staternaa, horn end bred in the school of Grenville, Liverpool, and Canning, should bring forward abstract mesas is favour of • ruin, and then rely upon abstract argumaofa against its interpretation. The noble lord vary lakly confessed that the bon. member for -Birdashem had alesitylutd candidly placed before the bore whet wen the reel ceases of this change. It was on the eve of • wee with Burr when, remembering the peat, it was trawl", that if rimier on the reran of the principle that the flag ultra not cover the amigo, we might be involved in a war with Amorists. If that were a sufficient reason see how blunderingly we have brought about the consequence, so far as it affects the United States of Amalie*. (Hear, bear.) Because at this moment, r my right boa . Meld (Kr. Walpole) said, you might be at war with the United Slates, and the United States !night carry ea their trade the whole time under this prompt, and at the same time pour forth a thousand privateers to prey epos your merchant void. Therefore you have given op this =riot of your maritime code roe • visionary ion, which has placed your 00111111.7011 at the the United States if war should take plata. That s position of affairs, we have the motion of the hon. for Liverpool, which his been described se the ea land d the unfortaame relinquishment of this seadisi et oar smiths* rade. The brie lord denies lieraibleidatmequerre; be cannot see the rune:ion bet ween the ledurpetalket +3d& has been put routhe motion and theedleimiliment of the ordinal point odour maritime code. • Bud Ihmlbe noble ionisers to forget that be was himself lie pike authority who announced this policy.

The noble loot no doubt has the right of changing his °pinkie, bet them be is not so valuable an authority when he does change his aioa. (" Bear, hear," sad laughter.)

We have two alteratives before us, and I will my opinion of both. I cannot myself te the interest, of cosec and of the motion. 1 cannot believe that min and navies can flourish when no longer . bound up with the intets and passions of the nation. (Hear. how.) But I see m the poisibility of immense corruption, and of some energetic man arising who will turn new tactics and new artillery to destroy • flourish ing but dead community, and to establish a diffe rent state of society in its plaos. Nor do I conceive how von can maintain our system of blockade if you concede the principle for which the hon. member for Liverpool contends. (Hear, hear.) Your navy will be norm for aggression, and only useful for defence ; and the remit will be that you will sinic into utter insignificance. tHear, hear.) Yon may for a time accumulate treasures, ut you must ultimately become the victims of a power stronger and more unscrupulous than yourselves. (Hear.) He could not therefore support this new view. Although willing to admit the incoovenieoce and even the danger that beset our present positioo, he Ital rested his confidence on the patriotism of his countrymen, and on the fortunes of hie country. which be believed was destined to remain peat. He could not sere with the noble lord that the deelaratioe of Paris was to be looked upon as one that was never to be changed. The observations of the Secretary for War were perfectly just, that as a general principle war terminated treaties, but only between the belligerents. Other countries who had been parties to the treaty would have • right to have the treaty observed. The noble lord treated any suggestion from those (the opposition) benches with den mien ; but be (Mr. Disraeli) had an authority that would weigh with the hour, and that was the Secretary for Foreign A Beira, who s aid, "I cannot but think that in point of principle the declaration of Paris ought to be altered. It is very grave in he bearings on or maritime superiority." An opinion like that from such a source ought to have great weight in that assembly. He (Mr. Disraeli) did not know the present occu pations of the cabinet, whether they were as multifarious as tree of the House of Commons. If they were not more employed than the House of Commons—(laughter)—he would suggest as the next subject for their meeting a consi deration of the means whereby the Secretary for Foreign Affairs had suggested the treaty of Paris might be altered. HORSFALL said that in compliance with the opinion thrown out at both sides, he would not press the motion to • division. He was content that the discussion which bad taken place on it should go forth to the country. The motion was accordingly withdrawn. SUPPLY. Led PALMERSTON observed that nothing was more hmoossoloot than for the house to adopt a general and &b. I street resolution, and the government, if called upon to act upon this resolution, could only guess at the course they were to purees from the arguments urged in support of it; loathe &momenta were so ant that he was at a les s to know which were to be their guide. This, he thought, was itself sufficient reason why the house should not smut to the motion. With regard to the declaration of Paris, the only now point mu that ma mesiny's property should be free from altars in neat& vessels, and he insisted that it was wise and politic to adopt that principle, and be did not hesitate to say that they had no intention to go ; beck. Then came Mr. Holdall's proposition, which, it was ssidaas a logical sequence of the declaration. This he fir Th e declaration related to the position of neutrals is time of war; but the proposition referred to the podia= of belligerents towards each other. His opinion was that if we gave up the power we possessed, sad which ev . zmantime nation exercised, of seising ea seamy's thereby reducing war almost to an 'atilt.' cause of diplomatic relations, it would cripple our main am of strength, inflict a fatal blow upon our saved supremacy, and commit an act of political stakido. Be had shared the opinion he expressed some yeas' ego ▪ likepool. The noble lord continued: Whm we mkt es segegusesat with a neutral we have the resource ei mar, het WWI yea are at war you have shot your bolt, and eau he seals. more, but mist depend upon the honour of the 'saw with whom your engagement has been made, sod you have the further remedy that you may not con chide peace with that enemy unless ample reparation be made for anything that may have bees done during the war in oontravention of the principles previously esta blished. (Hear, hear.) It was said that the ples laid down at Pin would be fats! to our comm erce ead shipping interest. (Hear, bear.) Why, the very argument used by gentlemen who have taken part in the &bets new tires the first part at the assertion. for they say our ann. mese would go on without any interruption whatever ,• that all that would happen would be to change the channel in which it would flow ; that it would all be carried on by neutrals with greeter safety than in our own slaPe. It must, of inutile the inconvenience ; but, unfor tunately, it is of nature of war that it cannot be canted on without inconvenience and Ices to all parties concerned. If you could make war without inflicting suffering it would become mere child's play, and might go on for ever without soy practical result. But It has been mid that all our would be carried on in neutral vessels. How is out? It is to be presumed that the of the world is carried on in ships, and that the majority of the ships of the world belong to this country. But, suppose that our ships were thrown out of employment, where would others be got sufficient to apply their places ? Ships cannot be built in a day. We as., however, I believe, the most powerful naval slate in the world,tead we have sliest which, I trust, would, in case of war, be superior to say adversary. We may Dope that the ships of our deanery will either suffer defeat or be eoneeed to their port' ; and then, when our maritime superiority was thus established, the dauger to our merchant ships would proportion ably diminish. This is sot the first attempt to set up the interest of one class spied that of the whole country. We remember bow the agricultural interest objected to fee trade in ooro, and how ultimately they found that the change increased their prosperity. It wee so with certain branches of our manufacturing industry, and it ha been so with that very shipping uttered in the use of the abolition of the navigation laws. The shipping interest insaginee that because the first effect of the present system bean upon them it ought not to take place, and if it could be shown that what they ask would be an injury to the country generally, it must ultimately be an injury to them ea well ea the rest. In an island like this, with an army which is never surficieotly numerous to be sent for peed its operations beyond ere, we must mainly rest upon our naval power, and we must use it by destroying the 00,1- Inerce, and taking the ships and crews of our antagonist. Honourable members have argued this question uif it were mearly one of goods and ships, but they forget that when you make captures would take not only the ships, bet the sailors, who otherwise have pee book to their own country and become our enemies. (Hear, hear.) Suppoiae 7 —a 000tingency which nobody could with to see—a war to arise between Eoglauil and France. The Free& seed annually 20,000 seamen to their fisheries, as a nursery la case of necessity ; but if the principle which has been ad vocated to-night were to prevail, our ships might be blockad ing L'Orient, or Brest, or Cherbourg, and these 20,000sailure might pun our flool c ar .dr d go in to man the ships which we were actually . (Hear hear.) For these miaow my opinion de cid edly is t hat if you give up the power which you and all other nation, at present parses of taking the ships and goods and crews of of nations with which you happen to be at war, you will be crippling your right arm, inflicting a fatal blow ea your naval power, and in fact committing, as I said before, an art of politi cal suicide. (Hear, bear.) If you allow the ships to pass you must allow t he men also, for bow could you say, " We respect the ship and cargo, but the sailors we must detain.' if you have part you must have ell, and that will include the sailors who may be used *gamiest you in war. This is evidently a thing that oouid not be done. You would have to permit a number of sailors to be taken into the French ports in merchantmen to man their war navy, which would then come out and fight your ships. It appears to me that if the positioes of the hon. gentleman ware agreed to it would reduce war almost to an interchange of diplomatic notes. If yen attempted to establish a block ade you would invade private property. For how do you establish a blockade but by esimag the ships which attempt to break it ? And what k braking a blockade? That it not a matter so clear bat that an Infinite number of ques tions may arise epos it ; u for example, how far a ship may eons oat of the blockaded port, or how near one meek 'mewl it in order to Whose as intestlea to break it. (limr, hear ) If, therefore, you adopt the imotioo of the hon. gentleman you will °tipple your main arm for ell the purpeere of war.

SALE OF SPIRITS. Mr. W. MARTIN said that on Wednesday next he should move for leave to bring In a bill to regulate the sale of THE MOORISH GOVIRNMENT AND THE UNITED STATES. Mr. GRIFFITH oohed t►e Underßiserelarylof State for Fo reign Affairs whether the lieutenant of the Semler, and the as-ronsul of the United States at Cadia, who were arrested es landing from the Ville de Malaga steamer by the United States roused at Tangier, were taken down to the harbour, and r.durked as prkoners oo booed the United States fri• gate the 100.

The War.odice then telegraphed to General Cod riugton at Gibraltar, and the reply did not reach him (Mr. Layard) till Friday, when it was too late to communicate the sulist, wee of the message to his boo. friend. The answer stated that these gentlemen were shipped on board the 100, were transferred at sea to a int relent vessel, nod carried off to the United States.

THte 'r MAN OF KANT " AND PRIMIDIONT LINCOLN. —A native of Maidstone, now living at Rockland, Maine (M.IL), in a recent letter gives some interesting partienkri of thepart taken by the "Men of Kent" in the A e. One company of the 4th Maine Bides which, the writer says, " received the charge of the famous Virginia Black Home at Bull's Run") is composed chaffy of men from the counties of Kent and Sumer. He relates the following anecdote :—" At • late review the band of this regiment, composed of twenty-orie begkn, drew forth so much admiration, that President Lincoln, who was present, had them summoned into his mane& As they marched to the front where the staff wore assembled they played the ' Man of Kent.'
