Sir G. C. LEWIS said he had • bill now on the orders relating to the office of coroner. Since that bill was introduced the committee to winch the hon. gentleman had referred had sat and made a report. There were several of the recommendations of the committee he should be dis posed to adopt, either by bringing in • new bill or by amending the bill now before the house. But the main re. commeuilstion namely, that the coroners should be paid by salary and no t fees, 'he was not disposed to adopt.

He was induced to ask this question, because two or three years ago the house agreed to an address to the crown kr the Diming • royal commission on the subject, and the comtnietion had reported, recommending the abolition of those tolls.

Vi;;;.;i" DGNGANNON row to 17;;;;, aP;itsironTrOm the inhabitants of Darlington, in the county of Durham, complaining of the l a rge amou n t o f re v en u es abstraoted from the diocese of Durham, while little or no regard had been paid by the Ecclesiastics' Commissioners to the spiri tual wants arising from the vast increase of its popul and praying that such measures might be taken as should insure, in future, a recognition of its just and manifest de mands. The noble lord said the petitioners further stated that the population of the diocese had been augmenting to an enormous extent for a considerable length of time, and that they felt most grateful for the resolution peeved by the committee appointed by their lordships in the last parliament, to the effect that wherever church pro perty had been greatly increased in 'nine by the population dwelling upon it, the spiritual wants of that population should be first considered in the appropriation of the revenue arising from such r uit ipeLti . . , Formerly Durham was the we a lth ies t d iocese in but a large portion of its revenues now went into the ands of the ecclesiastical commissioners. In some parishes in the diocese, the clergy were, no doubt, well paid, but on the other hand, there were other parishes, containing a large population, so miserably endowed as scarcely to be able to maintain an incumbent. Their lordships knew nothing as to how the large funds receives' by those commissioners w ere imi t lig e t y hr7 i. throughout the countr furnishe y , and wsomeas now lug n h u tim pon the subject. The noble lord then enforced the prayer of the petitioners, which he said was founded oa common justice and fairness, and expressed an earnest hope that some remedy would be devised for the crying evil of which ' they complained. An animated discussion took place upon the subject, in which Lords Grey, Ravensworth, Chichester, and the Bishops of Carlisle, Llandaff, and London took part. The Charitable Uses Bill was brought up for the second reading, but, on the motion of Lord ABINUER, the bell was ordered to be read a second time that day six months. In reply to Lords Clanricarde and Clencarty, Lord DE GREY and RIPON stated the reasons by which the K a m ca meat had been influenced to call out the militia in at the present season of the year.

He remembered the difficulty which occurred with America on the subject of this valuation. If the valuation of goods was too high the 80 per cent. would amount to prohibition on the export of silks from this country. The question of valuation deter mined the amount of duty, and he trusted that the eaten , ties& of the government would be closely directed to this Mr. M. GIBBON said the government were in nowise reeponable for the Gas Act ; and he was not able to give his hon. friend a legal exposition of the various clauses which it contai re d.

The board took it into consideration in co nf erence w ith th e Astronomer Royal ; and they replied that the act did not appear to them to bar imprietnable. With that the connexion of the Board of Trade with the measure terminated. With respect to the observations of the hon. member for Warwicks hire , he did not understand that the commissioners were about to negotiate upon any new basis, or upon any new principles. They were merely to arrange the details of the treaty ; and he bad no doubt that it would be their earnest endeavour to place the various duties on the most satidactory feeticti• REFORM STATISTICS. Sir M. FARQUHAR raised a question respecting the returns laid upon the table (and often referred to in the de bates upon the Reform Bill) of the numbers of male ocs.u. piers in cities and boroughs assessed from 6f. to 10/. Mr. VILLIERS adhered to his repeated assertion of the accuracy of the returns, which every re-exemination, he sold, had confirmed. Sir J. PAKINOTON observed that all MA Villiers must mean was that the returns were correctly copied from the rate-look (to this remark Mr. Villiers assented,: but this was no answer to the point at issue—the number of persons who would obtain the 6'. franchise. The greet estimated rental was no criterion of the rent actually paid. Mr. HENLEY remarked that 'the accuracy of the re turns was not doubted ; the objection was that the returns did not represent the rent. The discussion of this and collateral subjects ran to a considerable length. In the course of the discussion, Mr. E. JAMDI sail he only interfered in this interlocu tory discussion because he had been personally referred to. There had been a great deal of assertion on one side, and counter-assertion on the other, without its appearing who was right. He had never impugned the intention of the government in procuring these returns, or their accuracy so far as they gave the imoroation sought. All he had am , pusses" was the statement of the noble lord (Lord J. Rus sell) that those returns showed an additional number of voters of 150,000 only. Lord J. RUSSELL—One hundred and ninety thousand. Mr. E. JAMES believed the noble lord's statement wee about 200,000 in round numbers. That was all the charge Le made—that the noble lord's statement was inaccurate. That point would probably soon be decided : and the sooner the better ; for it was painful to find the hon. members for Liverpool differing xi widely as to the number of their fu ture constituent —one saving it would ho 21,000- the other 30,000 (Hear, hear.) Ile rose to ask the Home Secretary whether it was the intention of the government to introduce any measure to provide for the registration fur this year of the persons who would become entitled to vote in the event of the Reform Bill passing this session. This Wl.ll a ques tion of very considerable importance. As the bill stood, it had no machinery whatever for the registration or revision of a new constituency. He was anxious to know whether this had leen an oversight on the part of the go vernment, and whether they meant to bring .11 a subsidiary bill to supply the defect, or whether it had been inten tionally el me, and they meant to leave the law as it stood. Assuming the Reform Bill to pass this session, the govern meat could not hope that it would do so before the 70th of July. The system of registration as at present provided foe eameamed in July ; and this being so, it would not include the new constituencies to be created under this lull- The Iteiann Bill of 1.5.32 received the royal assent MA the 7th of Joe ; end it prescribed for the first time the whole system et migration and revision. The operation began on the Nth of June ; lists were made out ; and all the new voters ware paced on the register The Reform Bill of last session contained clauses regulating the system of registration, and also a provision, neo:seiary to any reform bill ' that in the event of the bill pa...mg into law, a new syste m of regain.- hen should be at one: commenced. Unless the sue( raiment meant to introduce a suinidiarg bill, there would be a perfect chaos of eonfasion. The bill of Mr. Disraeli psvvishal that the registration should commence immediately after the new hill passed. The present bill niade no such provimon; but he inferred from one of its clauses that the governmeut did hot intend the new constituencies to be registered, or become voters. until 15412; and he would tell the hoase why. Ho hoped that this bill, though a mere skeleton, would pass in the present session : but if it did so it must be too late for the corning registrstion, county claims being made on the 110th of July, awl borough claims on the 314 of August. The law was that the registration of this year should list until the 314 of December, 1661 • therefore, in the eviut of this bill passing, and being too lite for the present year's regis tration, the register of this year would be the register of voters until the end of 1861 ; and assuming that au election occurred next year, the new constituent body would not be IC the register at all. By the 20th section of the bill the sew votary were to remain subject to the conditions at present affecting voter., and were to be entitled to be placed on the county and borough registers on and after 1860. But the register of 1660 was in force for the whole of 1861; conse quently those not rr ' istereel in Iwo could uut vote till 1862. This being the c..ose, he wanted to know whether the o vernment contemplated a dissolution on the passing el this bill; if so, they surely could not mean the election to take place on the , old constituency. What a manifest injustice this would be, end what alarm and confusion: it would ex cite iu the country. He did not ask the government whe ther they meant to dissolve on the passing of this bill; that was a question of policy for themselves to decide ; but cir cumstances might hriug about a dissolution iu the spring without the government intending it. The government might be in the heyday of their popularity just now—thear, hear)—but in the height of prosperity calamities might sometimes happen ; and the govenmeut might be wrecked suddenly— " Like ships that had gone down at When heaven was all tranquillity. (Hear, hear.) He I, , ped that the government would Onto whether they meant to introduce a subsidiary bill, or to rely on the law ea it stood, by which the new constituency could have no votes till ldll2. Sir G. C. LEWIS said the government was quite prepared to go into detail on the provisions of the reform bill, when ever it should please the house to read it a second time ; and he hoped that would Le on the earliest day on which it suited the convenieuee of the home to do so. (Hear, hair.) But he did not think that their debates on that bill would is abridge] by their discussing any of the clauses at that time, either with respect to registration or other matters. (Hoar, hear.) The clauses referred to were not the result of any oversight, but were deliberately intended by tle• government, who had a very clear view of the effect that 'dem clauses would have bathe event of the bill passing in time this year for the registration of the new oonstouencv to take place. The bill of last year contained a number of clauses with respect to registration ; these were neemary on account of the new franchisee introduced ; but as the present bill merely extended the existing franchise in counties and boroughs, and did not intruduce any franchise of a new description, all the govern ment proposed to do was simply to make the existing machinery for registration applicable to the extended (mu ckier,. And there was no doubt, if the time shoold allow, that the provisions of the bill wore quite effectual for that purpose. If it should tutu out that the period of the ses sion was too advanced the time for consider's% that question would be when they were in committee. Sir C. WOOD, in reference to the quartiou asked by Yr. Mildmay, said that lie had received accounts rontirni lag generally the stateuseuta that had sp?oareil iu the public press as to outrages emornitted by curtain p.issengeni to India on their pommy through Egypt. The facia had been reported in a despatch from tie consul-genera. at Egvpt—sad in otroct it stated that termite -five or twenty-six of the passengers pro ceeded to tho citadel, obtruded themselves into a mosque, where they c .o.loete.l themselves most improperly, forced their way into the platy vet apart fur the Viceroy's harem, and intsnraptel the precas by riiimickieg the wor eh' . The Vis seut,e mmonst.unce, and that being eetual he soot an olhcer with a body of janisaarie., forced them away, and, what was to them of more con sequence, protected them from the just indignation of the people.

With regard to the messenger. them selves, they went off by the railway, and the government had therefore nu certain information as to who were the par ties who were engaged in the outrage. The consul did n o t say that any of them were cadets or others in the Inilisin service, though fr. an one expression in hi s d ea p„t c h t h at might be inferred. He (Sir ('. Wood) had sent out directions by the mail, yesterday, to sh e Governor of their's. asking Lim to call upon the senior Akar iu charge of the cadets to report all the circumstances so fares he knew them, and the name* of the persons connected with the Indian service who were con cerned in this gross outrage, in order that they might be made amenable fur their conduct. (Hear, hear.) With regent to the future. his noble friend (Lord ,r. Russell) h a d addressed .1 despatch to the British ismsul in Egypt, direct. leg Lim to act under the power that belonged to his o ff ice by arresting acy British subject who might in future lie guilt of such conduct.
