a F I. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. Although the benches of the House of Lords were not so well filled at five o'clock yesterday afternoe n as they were on the previous day, there were many indications that the debate upon the Suspensory Bill had lost none of its interest or attraction. The space in front of the throne, and the strangerre gallery were nearly as much crowded as on Thursday ; and the attendance of ladies was larger rather than entailer than it was at the open ing of the discussion. And those who were early upon the scene were well repaid for their prompti tude. The speech with which the Earl of Canuovon recommenced the debate was one of the most remarkable that is likely to be delivered in its course. Although the noble earl found some fault with the conduct of the opposition in raising the question of the Irish church at th present cement, the main stress of his speech wa s directed against the attitude of the government and against the prevent condition of the Irish branch of the established church. He drew the broadest distinction between the position of the Irish and that of the English church ; and referring, half indignantly half contemptuously, to the at tempt that had been made th niece a cry that the church is in danger he pronounced the attempt of the government to bind up the fate of the Irish church with that of the English establishment to be not only reckless and wanton, but even criminal. He did not disguise his opinion that the position of the church in Ire land could not be justified; and recognising the necessity not only for its diseetablishment, but also for its partial disendowment, all he asked VIM that it should be treated with generosity. Such treat ment he declared it was more likely to receive from its avowed adversaries than from its false friends, and for this reason be announced his intention not to oppose the second reading of the bill. Lord Redentale, who followed the noble earl, confined himself chiefly to a consideration of the extent and effect of the terms of her Majesty's corona tion oath ; and in language the good taste of which was at least questionable, urged upon the consideration of their lordship; the awful conse quences which the Queen would have to face upon the day of judgment should she violate any of its obligations. The speech of the Duke of Marl borough was rather lengthy than interesting, and involved n large amount of quotation from the writings or hiss cies of members of the opposition, in order to show that the course they Were now pursuing was irreconcilcable with that which they had recommended in previous years. Lord Inefferin, speaking as a strong pro testant, gave his support to this bill, because ho believed that the present position of the Irish church en.: prejudicial to the progress and pros perity of Ireland, and dangerous to the best in terests of the empire; and because the only means by which true religious equality could be obtained in Ireland was the disestablishment of that church. The arguments of the Archbishop of York were adde,seil in great part to showing the mischiefs which would arise from the suspension of eccle eiastieal appointments under this bill ; and liord Romilly, while expressing a strong opinion that the disestablishment of the church in Ireland was essential to the foundation of entirely harmonious relations between that country and England, ap plied himself mainly to proving that parliament might deal with appointments in the Irish church without injustice to the rights of possible succes sors of present incumbents. The most general and elaborate defence of the Irish church that had yet been offend to their lordships proceeded from the mouth of the Archbishop of Armagh. The right rev. prelate dwelt at length upon the history, the services, and the sacrifices of that church • he met the reproach that it was the church of Only one eighth of the people of Ireland by the assertion that it enjoyed only one-eighth of the property which Henry 11. guaranteed to it at the council of Ceded ; and warned their lordships that what they were asked to do was to substitute one estab lishment for another, and that if they got rid of a state church which acknowledged the supremacy of the Queen, they would be setting no another which recognised the supremacy of the Popo. The speeches of the Earl of Cork and the Duke of Somereet, who supported, and of the Duke of Rutland, who opposed the bill, were delivered to comparatively empty benches but as goon as it wee known that the Marquis of Ralisbury was speaking, the house filled again, and before the noble lord had made much pro gress the audience was as large as at any period of the evening. Lord Salisbury, who spoke with all his House of Commons vigour, addressed himself rather to the attack of the mea sure than to the defence of the Irish church. He shrunk from raising the cry of "No surrender," because the experience of the last few years bad taught him that the strongest fortresses must fall if the gar rison was unfaithful ; but referring to some of the observations of the Earl of Clarendon, he protested against the idea that the House of Lords was to be the slave, the echo, or the tool of the House of Commons. Lord Lyttelton spoke in favour, and the Earl of Harrowby against the bill, and the discussion was dosed for the night by the Bishop of /Make. The discussion upon the Metropolitan Cattle Market Bill in the House of Commons was much more animated than might have been anticipated. The principal speeches were those of Lord Re Montagu and Mr. Milner Gibson. The noble lord, in asking the house to go into committee upon the bill, dwelt at great length upon the in convenience and expense of the existing restric tions upon the cattle trade, and maintained that while this bill would give the maximum security against the intro duct ion of the cattle plague into this country, it would in feet diminish those inconveni ences, while the extra expense which it might cause would he. HS nothing compared with the loss which must result from a fresh outbreak of disease. The noble lord's address was somewhat discursive in character ; and some of his illustrations were not very happy. A good deal of amusement was caused by an allusien to " Nebuchadnezzar's " lean line; but Lonl Robert went On with his speech aptarently quite iineonscious of the slip which he had made. Mr. Gibson's reply to the noble lord was a most damaging attack upon the bill, which he characterised as " petty seliiinte of protection, " designed to serve the govt rtunent at the forth coming election by gaining for them the character of " farmers' friends." To afford an effective safe guard aguilistthe cattle plague,he argued,this legis lation mast la, appliisl to every port in the kingdom, and the house ought not to take a single step in the dinsiion of imposing ma serious a restriction upon the importation of food into this country without heeler the whole scheme before them. The right hon. gentleman pointedly referred to the ineu.sures recently adopted by the Privy Coun cil for the admission of French, Spanish, and Por tuguiase cuttle into our ports, and expressed a de cided amviction that this measure was not sup ported by the Council. Quoting the speech of Mr. Y. Harcourt before the committee, ho de clared that the voice was the voice of the Jacob of the Council, but the hand was the hand of the LAW of Norfolk. Following up the spirit of his argument, he concluded by moving a resolution which asserted that the importation of foreign cattle into the Port of London ought not to be considered apart from the general policy of im posing restrictions upon the foreis cattle trade in other parte of the United Kingdom. The dis cussion was continued by two or three other mem bers, and had not closed when the sitting was sus pended. The first subject which occupied the attention of the house when it re-assembled at nine o'clock weaourtelagraphic oommunication with India. The defects of the existing system, and the necessity for an additional line of communica tion with India, were forcibly impressed upon tho house by Lord W. Hay, who commenced the discussion, Mr. Crawford, Mr. Alfred Seymour, and other members ; and Sir S. Nortboote, while making the most of the dif ficulties which would attend the multiplication of ore means of intercourse with our Indian empire, did not dispute the advantages of which it would be productive. There was a abort discus sion upon a motion of Mr. Pim on the subject of big records, and then the house settled down to ..=....ne l im dispose of the orders. This task did not oocupylong: and when it was performed the adjournment of the house followed as a matter of course. CHEAP MEAT FROM AUSTRALIA. Notwithstanding the disheartening failure of previous attempts, our Australian brethren, with characteristic energy, appear determined to open up a market in Europe for the sale of the beef and mutton of which they such an enormous abundance, and the q 'V of which has not--for tunately for them—become deteriorated by the presence of the rinderpost. They reason, and with much truth, that if Australian meat can be landed here in first-class condition, and at a price below that of common butcher's meat, a large sale will inevitably follow. Already the import of foreign preserved meat into England has become developed on every large scale, about 6,000 tons of salt beef, valued at 241,500/. aterhng, having been imported during the last year into Liverkt from the United States and Canada alone. is exclusive of the heavy imports into London and other places from the same countries. Our impor tation of preserved meat from South America, Russia, and other countries, are also of no moan magnitude, despite the exten sive reaction in popular taste, following the famous South American " jerked beef " furore. The Australians argue, fairly enough, that it would not be difficult for them to become com petitors with America in the supply of preserved meat to England. The Australian beef and mutton is fully equal, if not superior to, the American ; while its greater cheapness would render tho ex penses of curing, packing, freight, insurance, and agencies, pretty equal in both countries, the balance, if any, being in favour of Australia. Cousequently it is not at all surprising to find Queensland boldly offering a tempting bonus, in tho shape of 10,000 acres of land, to the parties who shall first suc ceed in landing here one hundred tons of Australian meat in fresh and good condition. Not to be behindhand, a large number of leading residents—atockovrners, bankers, and merchants —in New South Wales have formed themselves into an association for the purpose of conducting experiments on a large scale, with the view of testing the e ffi cacy of the free zing system lately introduced by Mr. Mort into that colony, and of which an account appeared several weeks since in the Express. A ship has been purchased, fitted up with the necessary ap paratus, and is now on its way here with a large cargo of Australian beef and mutton packed in ice, or reduced by chemical means to a semi-frozen condition. Stimulated by the example of her sister colonies, Victoria has also entered the field, and with such energy, that several samples of Victoria beef and mutton have already arm ed in London, having been brought by the Panama route for the express pur pose of ascertaining whether the condition of the meat thus sent would be in any way affected by its transit through the tropics. To the great delight of the promoters of the enterprise the expe riment has been attended with complete success, the samples, when opened in London, being found in precisely the same condition as when packed in Victoria. It is impossible to over-estimate the value of this fact. It demonstrates beyond all doubt the complete practicability of procuring ex cellent meat in large quantities and at a cheap rate from the Antipodes. The samples which are at present on view at Mr. Tallerman's, 3, Jeffery's-square, St. Mary-axe, consist of legs of mutton, carcases of sheep, and a quantity of beef, hams ' and briskets. Their appearance is that of the finest ham, the flesh presenting a re markably bright and clean appearance when cut with a knife. The sheep are bed up in long rolls. The beef is equal in every respect to the hung Hambro', Dutch, and other smoked meats retailed as luxuries in London shops at from Is. sd. to Is. Bd. per lb., and can be profitably sold retail at 7d. per lb. Australian mutton can be sold in hie manner at M. per lb. without any bone. The meat is fi rst divested of bone, then smoked or steeped in pickle for twenty-four hours, 'trapped up in clean calico, and finally packed in seeds or mutton fat. The simpli city of the process forms its great recommenda tion. It is inexpensive, requires no costly ante, and does not demand p articular skill or m • expertness on the part of those employed in pre wing the meat. The leading essential is that the beef or mutton shall be of the best quality. Inattention to this condition explains the failure of all previous attempts. As the character of the new importation becomes more generally known, other consignments from Victoria will probably follow in the shape of sheep and bullock tongues, tripe, sa , kan garoo hams, salt beef, spiced s u n s i a ored beef, legs, shoulders, and joints of mutton, &c., at prices so low as effectually to compete with all other descriptions of meats—whetlier fresh or preserved—at present in the English mar ket. Large shipments of this meat are already on their way here. Should the experiment succeed, as we trust it will, our food resources will become immensely enlarged, and our butchers' bills proportionately decreased—acireumstanee for congratulation in these days of dear bread and meat.

THE COMMERCIAL TRAVELLERS' BzwEvoimrr Lernrunow.—The annual dinner in aid of the funds of thin institution, which was established in 1849, was held last evening at the Castle Hotel, Richmond. In the absence of the Right Hon. G. J. Ovechen, M.P., who was expected to be present, the chair was occupied by Mr. J. R. Hooper, of Q eenhithe, the treasurer of the institution. The report laid before the subscribers showed that the total income from all sources during the year amounted to 2,2931. 3s. 241. The institution has expended 9,0001. in relieving 67 pensioners, and the annual cost of the 42 'persons now upon the funds is 1,4301. The amount of New Three per Cent. stock standing in the names of the trustees is 7,7181. 16s. Id., and to this the board have ordered a further investment. raising the amount to 8,0181. 16s. Id. The annuities granted to indigent mem bers vary from 401. to 601., and to the widows of members from 261. to 301. The chairman proposed the customary loyal Meath, the announcement of the arrival in England of his Royal Highness the Duke of Edinburgh being re ceived with great enthusiasm. In recapitulating the his tory of the institution, the chairman took occasion to an nounce that its progress had been moat satisfactory, and he concluded by making an earnest appeal to the sym pathies of those present in the interests of the society, the object of which is to relieve necessitous comme rc i a l tra vellers, being members who are aged, or permanently in capacitated from earning a subeistenos, and also to pro vide for the relict of their widows. The subscriptions announced by the secretary amounted to 538 guineas. THE FIRES ON THE YORKSIIIRE Moons.—The fires which have been reported on the Yorkshire moors were still smouldering yesterday, though their further destructive progress is believed to be arrested. Nearly 4,000 acres of moorland has been left black and desolate, with probably scarcely a living bird, or animal or vege table, excepting the largest trees, over the wide expanse. The young grouse and rabbits which abound on these moors have been totally destroyed, and sheep grazing thereon have in some instances perished The cause of the tires is not, it is believed, as was alleged, the sparks emitted from a railway engine on the Rosedale branch line near the Cleveland-hills, a little south-east of the Tees, though one of the fires was first observed on Monday, the 15th instant, in that locality. As fires are not unusual on the moors in the summer time, no notice was taken of it for some days, until it had got such a hold as has no previous parallel, and it was found almost impos sible to compaas it with • view of putting it out. Here about 3,000 acres were devastated. At about the tame time a moor belonging to the Marquis of Aylesbury, to the east of Northallerton, which is eight miles distant from the former moors, was observed to be on fire at a point about a mils distant from any fire or railway. This has given rise to the impression that owing to the dryness of the weather, through the drought, with their simul taneous appearance, the fire must have arisen from spontaneous combustion. Lord Feversham, Lord'Hoyne, and Lord Do Lisle and Dudley, are the chief sufferers. Though the destruction of grouse has been great, the great bulk of Yorkshire moorland lying to the north-west remains intact and promises well. Mrs. S. A.

The bail was fixed at two housekeepers, to be bound in 1,0001. each. Mr. Murrell, of 21, Houghton-street, Claro-market, came forward. He said he was a printer, and printed paper hags. He had been eighteen years in his present house. His 'veneers, types, and book debts were worth 2,0001. Mr. Knox asked him if he could swear thathe was worth 3,0001. Mr. Burrell said he could. Inspector Silverton said he had been to the place. The printing place was a sort of shed, but to his thinking there was not evidence of property that was worth more than WI. Mr. O'Donoghue, of 20, Houghton-street, Clare-market, was the second bail. lie said he was a licensed valuer and house-agent. He had furniture for sale as a broker, and held leaseholds, which enabled him to swear that he was worth 3,0001. after all his debts were paid. Inspector Silverton said he found some old furniture in the shop and saw a chest. There was no one there to give him any information. Mr. O'Donoghue said in that chest there was 1,0201. worth of plate. Mr. Roberta said the sufficiency of the bail had been inquired into by the prosecutor's solicitor, and he believed there was no doubt about the competency of the partiee. Mr. Burrell and Mr. O'Donoghue were quite prepared to prove that they were worth the amount they had de posed to. Mr. Knox said it was essential that the bail should be substantial, otherwise justice might be defeated. Inspector Silverton was then requested to make further inquiries. lie parties were all in attendance yesterday morning before Mr. Knox. Mr. Roberta said he was now in a position to show that the two belle were substantial parsons. The inspector was satiatied with his further inquiries. Kr. Knox:then agreed to accept the bail, and the neces sary forms having been gone through, Madame Rachel was released from the House of Detention. DEATH AND ROBBERY OP A GENTLEMAN IN BOTITN-ROW. Yesterday Mr. Bedford held an inquiry in St. George's Hospital, Hyde Park-corner, respecting the cir cumstances attending the death of an independent gentle man named Samuel Burchild, aged 61. The inquiry excited more than usual interest, and Mr. Inspector Fraser, of the A division, attended to watch the cue for the Commissioner of Police. Mr. Charles Camp, a coachmaker ' of No. 20, Prince's mews, Kensington, said that on Wednesday night last about a quarter-past 10 o'clock, his attention was called to the deceased, who was leaning over the railings opposite Rutland-gato, in Rotten-row, Hyde-park. There was a woman near him, who said the gentleman was very ill, and she asked him to go and fetch a policeman. When witness came up to him he pointed to his throat, and said that he thought he should be suffocated. He walked with him about 200 yards, when he fell, being unable to walk any further. He then appmred red in the face. He was put in a cab, and removed to the hospital. John Hook, a police constable, No. 214 A, said that on Wednesday night he was on duty near Knightsbridge barracks, when he was called to a gentleman who was lying on the grass, and who appeared very ill ; he was foaming at the mouth. Ile sent the last witness for a cab, and he was removed to the hospital; but he thought he died before he reached it. He searched and found a notebook and a pocket book in his posse lion, three 61. Bank of England - notes, and a bank bill for 4001. and another for 1001., some memo randa and three half-pence. When be reached him, his shirt and his trousers were undone. The woman who called his attention to the deceased ran away, and a soldier who was present also ran away. He had no watch about him. Mrs. Lucy Snow, of 48, Frith-street, Prins-stre et, Soho, said that she knew the deceased, who had l odg ed with her for ten years. She last saw him alive on ed nesday night about nine o'clock, at which time he went out. He bad not slept much for the last few days. He was a man of very eccentric habits, but bad not been attended by any medical man. He frequently complained otpains in the throat. He never threatened in her pre sence to commit suicide. The Coroner—Are you aware whether he was in the habit of carrying a watch ? Witness—He was. He always carried a very valuable one in his side waistcoat pocket. That being missing, she believed it had been stolen. She did not know what loose money be had in his possession when he left home. The Coroner—Had he any relatives ? Witness—Yes. He had a nephew and a step-brother, but he told me if anything happened to him that I was never to communicate with them. . . The Coroner—You had better do so, and that imme- diately. Witness—But I don't know where to find them—they are not in this country. The Coroner—You are sure that he was in the habit of carrying a watch P Witness—l never saw him without one, it was a large gold one, and of peculiar make. James Nash, of 7, Church-court. Kensington, said that on Wednesday night he was in Hyde-park, and he saw the deceased walking along with a woman at his side. Ilia attention was called to him by his throwing his arms about and making a noise. The woman asked him to fetch a policeman. He asked the woman and a soldier to unbutton his waistcoat and collar, which being done, the man said, " Oh, go and fetch a doctor." He said that he lived near Soho-equare. Mr. Edward liable, of No. 19, Frith-street, said that he had known the deceased for many years. Ile was not a feeble man ; he was a very quick walker. Mr. George Parr, resident house physician, said death had reaulteti from Disease of the heart. There was no doubt from the examinatioa he had made that the de ceased had been the subject of great excitement in the park, and that had accelerated his death. There were no marks of violence on the body. The Coroner asked what was to be done with the pro- Perty? Inspector Fraser said that it remained in the hands of the hospital authorities. Mrs. Snow said that she wanted the hospital authorities to allow her sufficient to bury the body The jury returned a verdict of "Natural death from disease of the heart," and the proceedings terminated.

PREVENTION OP CONTAGious —A general meeting of the members and friends of tbe elation for Promoting the Extension of the Conti; mac Diseases Act was held yesterday at St. James's-ball. Pic cadilly; Sir Thos. Watson, Hart.. PALS.. in the There were also present Lord Lifford, Sir John SIIROPTI, M.P., Colonel Tottenham M.P. Mr. Waring, M.P., Mr. Mitford, M.P., Mr. Du Pre, Mr. J. Abel Smith. M.P., Sir John Bowing, and a large number of medical gentlemen. The chairman delivered an address, pointing out bow deeply the question affected the health and well being of society. The disease to which this asso ciation specially directed its attention was speci fic in its origin,' and contagious in its iv:tare. It carried misery and death into the homes of every class, although it was within the reach of medical science, and might be controlled by legislative interven tion. The attention of the medical profession had been slowly awakened to the magnitude of this crying evil. Men had busied themselves about cattle plagues, but had exhibited a strange indifference and neglectfulness about that pestilence ' always among them, which, as statistics proved, counted its victims by hundreds of thousands the majority of whom were innocent sufferers. Last year of the oat-patients attending one of the largest metro politan hospitals a dear half of them were afflicted with this disease, while in the Children's Hos pital no left than 174 infants were treated within the same period for maladies which were its direct consequences. It was futile to talk about action in the matter being calculated to encourage vice or immo rality, or to countenance the "social evil,' because exile rience had proved that the remedy advocated by the association tended to the contrary. The experiments already made under the limited act of 1866 in a dozen places throughout the United Kingdom had been at tended with marked success's, and the same result had followed in various parts of the continent where the sys tem was in foree, e therefore did not think any sound or real objection could be urged against the general appli cation of the act, for which two things were nwded. First, the establishment of special hospitals fur the treat ment of the disease; and secondly, the enforcement of police and other regulations for the requisite inspection of infected persons Lord Lifford then moved the adoption of a lengthened report, which had previously been published and circulated in a pamphlet form, coupling with it a request that the committee would continue to collect in formation on the subject, and apply themselves generally towards carrying out the objects of the association. 14s lordship stated that a report, the contents of which be was not at liberty to mention, was about to be presented to parliament, which, he believed, would greatly facilitate the o b jects the . association had in view. The motion VISA o ed by S i r John Simeon, M.P., and earned unani mously, as was also a resolution declaring it to be the opinion of the meeting that it was desirable the act of 1866 should be extended to the civil population of the United Kingdom.
