The house went into emmaittee on this bill Upon elegise 20, Mr. WHITESIDE mid that this dam really meant this, " That to Sir T. M. Wilma the benefit of this bill should not extend." There wee no precedent for such a claw, and It wee perfectly unjustifiable as a natter of principle. In Justin to Sir T. Wilson be would read to the bones a }Awe wWh that gentleman had written ta a friend upon this tebieet. The hos. member then read the letter la qnsesies, whist charged the late sad primal Lord Mansfield with kaviag, for their o p urposes, opposed his attempts to obtaht leasing pow ers !prosaism reports that be in. tended to enclose Hein Heath. He (Mr. Whiteside) asserted that there was no intention on the oart of Sir T. Wilson to melees the lima. He aimed the mission of the claw. Er. FOSTER, as a resident at Hampstead for 25 yaws, denied that the opposition to this bill came from Lord ' Mansfield. The house ought to know that in fact Sir T. Wilson had conmeneed operations upon the heath in the way of brickmakiag, which proved that immediately upon getting a power be would premed to build. ' The SOLICITOR-OENERAL regret:ad that this dia -1 casaba had been made the means of casting imputations upon animus who were not prevent to defend themselves. With reformat to the clause under discussion hi should say that if Hampstead Heath were to be preserved solely for pubis reasons—ad he mid it without hetitation—that the paha, might to bey is. (Hear, Lear.) Bat it was not upon that pound Sloths lased his support of this dense, for that was • men te be tonsidend only when Sir T. Wilson should eons to pullameat for special powers. The mean in favour of the clause was a general one, applicable to no particular essejnat to all ones. That reason was, that where parlia. meat had given its opinion upon a matter, to parliament alone futon applications should be made. (Cheers.) Mr. BARROW supported the clause, because he objected to any interferon" with the legal restrictions which testaton might sheen to put upon the enjoyment of their property. Sir J. SHELLEY supported the clause, because he thought that what bad already been solemnly decided upon by the Mum, ought sot to be re-opened before the Conn of Chancey G . Sir J. RAHAM thought that the Conn of Chummy, in a manor affecting real property, was a better tribunal thaa that knee. As he usehrotood the matter the bone bad se , seated to the general principle, that applications for kissing powen night to be made to the Court of Chancery; but it was said that the cam of Sir T. Wilson stood on such peculiar grounds that it ought to be excluded from the operation of the bill. Now, la his opinion, no better tribunal than the Courted Clammy aoald be found for deciding the questios, whether upon priaciples of equity the powers afforded by this bill should or should not be extended to a particular case. The only di faculty which he saw is the matter was the question of parties, for as the law steed there would be no one to reprenat the public interest whoa sun a ease as that of Sir 7. Wilson was brought into court. Bet that he thought might be got rid of by inserting words in the bill estargiog the mastitis of the Court of Chancery in this r i e r s .l. BUTT said that if this bill passed without the 20th clause, it would be a private act for the benefit of Sir T. Wilson, obtained ander the guise of general legislation. (Chum.) There was oe novelty in the principle of stele sin proposed by the clans. Every measles of parliament some set mood I. remedy a grievant, morn by the state of the law, from the effect of which eases decided Were suek set pissed wen entirely included. (Hear.) ' Sir D. NORREYB was is favour of *sponging the slant. He thought it nett to be left to the Coen of Chancery to do justice to all parties. Mr. HENLEY would vote spigot the clause, and should have bees better pleased had the clause and bill been rejected together. Mr. BUTT defended the dame, which rennin might be dismounted from the ease of Sir T. Wilson. Sir B. HALL said that the real drift of the bill woe to meet the one of Sir T. Wilson. Sir T. Wilma bad bin for many_yean before parliament, and had sought a direct bin ton Ntet his purpose. Hie case was refined to the judges, who reported dead easiest him, and be consequently anaemia his bW. Subsequently the present bill was brought in, and the damn objected to was inserted to pre vent its operatics) becoming hostile to the decision of the judges. The mend reading of the bill was conceded on the distinct undentandieg that this clause should be inane& and therefore, under all the clementine's, he felt bond to resist the modes. Mr. MALINS argued ;irongly in favour of remittals the gaieties to the Court of Chancery, where the question would be thoreeghly sifted and fairly decided. Lord R. GROSVENOR said be had always refitted every attempt to enclose Hampstead-heath es Prinetttiv, and should support the clause, se Media' to obstruct that Mr. J. G. PHILLIMORE was opposed to the whole hill, se tendin to add legialatio• to judicial funetioes is the courts of law. Next to the clergy, he looked apes the judges se the worst possible legislators. He thought that the bill ought not to pees at all; bat if it did pass, this dame ought to be expunged. Mr. L WIORAM believed that if the name of Sir T. Wilma had not been dragged into the discussion the bill would have peened without a moment's hesitation. He sug gested that aa there was not time for fully comideriag the classes of the bill with that minimises which the importance of .the subject required, it would be the wiser mums to postposs it to a future maim. The SOLICITOR GENERAL, though impressed with the importance of the measure, which he considered on. of the most valuable of the sessiot, felt, if hon. members op posite persisted in their opposition and were determined to divide the oommittee, bound to relinquish it for the pre sent session. ___ Mr. HENLEY thought much advantage would result from further time being given for the consideration of the Swan. Bsr G. GREY, seeing that the feeling of the house was *deem to proceeding farther with the bill this cession, sowed that the chains.* report progress, with the view of withdrawing the 'measure. Sir H. Ve ILLOU 0 BY suggested that, if Sir T. Wilson were to die before the passing of the bill, his successor would_ have the power to build over any part of the estate, and it would be well ler the bows to take steps to prevent it. The meths for reporting progress was then agreed to, and the bill was witkdrawn. DESPATCH OP BUSINESS (COURT or CHAN CERY) BILL.

By the set of this session it was necessary that every newspaper sent abroad or to the colonies should have both an impressed stamp and • postage label, and an apparent charge ef 2d. was thus made on every newspaper seat to the oolonies. The Postmaster.

N4BIITTEI'a WROUGHT-110N 017 S.—We understand that the first of the two gigantic pieces of artillery to be made at the Bridgewater Foundry ts now nearly forged, but how long the succeeding operations of turning and boring may take, and the gnu be ready for shipment to the Baltic—for that we believe is Its deadaatioa—is more than we or any one, we presume, as tall. At all events, it can not be practically tested this year. The man of Iron, eon pond of small slabs, welded together by the four-ton steam hammer, is at present a huge shapeless lump, apparently some Bor 10 feet lug, by 3or 4 feet in diameter. The pro cess of forging presents a grand sight ; the enormous mass of white-hot iron being turned and shifted under the hammer with u much ease and dexterity as if it were a common azletree. Indeed, the whole apparatus—the hammer, the hydraulic crate, tie —is quite a triumph of mechanical shill and genius. Several of the balls are now ready. They weigh a little more than ►alf a ton, and are of an oblate spheroid shape, cut at one end—in tact, not unlike the com mon Idinif ball. Should the gun answer, its power and nuts mat necessarily make great havoc when directed against mos fortifications —Namehethir Gua►dian. HOUSES FOR THI CHINIA.-OLOUCESTII, THUBJJ DAT.—An order has jest been received here for the con struction of a large number of houses for wintering the army ones more in the Crimea. The order has been seat down by the government to Messrs. Prim and Co., the in tensive timber merebsists of this port, who, It may be re membered, eoastraeted a number of hats last summer for both the English and French goveramonts. Mr. Liddell, who laid down the Balaklava railway, is ben to Inperistead she Strangemeats. Five hundred houses are to be am• struwed far the soldiers, and one hundred of a Gni erior kind for the use of the officers. Gloucester is conveniently situated for works of this kind, being the most inland pert in the country, one of the largest timber importing plata, and pouncing extensive steam apparatus for its conversion. It is thought not improbable that the houses will be shipped from Gloucester direct. instead of being sent by railway to Southampton, as was done last year.

The annual show of the Royal Irish Agricultural Society commenced yesterday at Carlow, and may be described as a good average one, both in the number and the quality of the animals exhibited. The weather was anything but propitious, yet the attendance of visitors was numerous and fashionable; and hi Ex cellency the Earl of Carlisle, who was himseN an exhibitor, and obtained the pseud prim for a beauti ful abort-horned bull seat over hom Castle Howard, arrived in the ehowyard about 3 o'clock, attended by two aides-de-camp, and was received by the Duke of Leinster and the members of the eommittee. Two militia bands were in attendance, and the general sent of the some was extremely interesting. In the evening the annual banquet of the society took plans in the great ball of the railway terminus, the Duke of Leinater , as president of the society, pre siding; and besides the Lord Lieutenant there were several other distinguished guests. The toast of "The Lewd Lieutenant and Prosperity to Ireland" laving been proposed and duly !immured, His Euellency returned thanks, and in the wane of his observations said : I helloes that this society ordered upon its carer—its most importast and auspicious caner—at a period when my lest official eonnexioo with this countrymen to a dose, bat not before I had the opportunity of coaferring upon the 'abject with 000 whom you will all admit to lave been ens of in meet public spirited and silkiest promoters, if I may not sell him entirely its founder, the late Mr. Peter Purcell. (Hear.) To prove how far it hes sine. proceeded and pros pered I lave only to refer to the large dinteations, the excellent arrangements, the timothy and quality what) it has this day displayed upon the veriest basks of the Barrow. (Applause.) Sines the period to what I have referred .f its first birth allow me to cast a brief ntrospets upon its most prominent operations in the subsequent interval. The society wisely resolved to encourage affiliated societies, and I learn that them are at this moment upwards of seventy such branch societies esta blished in Ireland. (Hear.) By this method, end by hold ing those annual meetings In the principal towns of Inland I. sucessios, it has carried its own experience through absest every district in its tam, and thereby Waded to fuse together the knowledge of the best specialties of each, whe ther is tillage or pasture, in cereals and green coops, in the breeding and fattening of cattle; and I have little dint* that without slighting other mon weighty inflates*. whisk hen been at work upon the social condition of the Irish people—some of them of a mingled character—without slighting the weight to be attached to them, I have little doubt that the Royal Irish Agricultural Society has greatly assisted the extension and improvement of agriculture which has so largely marked the last 20 years in the annals of our own country. (Cries of "Hear, hear.") For example, let me lest mention, that I dad, from the latest official return., that the quantity of land under cultivation in Ir e l an d a t th e time of the establishment of your society—in the year 1841— was 13.464,800 acres; in the year 1851 it amounted to 14,802,581 acres. (Hear, hear.) Then, as to the value of live stock, in 1841, it was computed to be 19,339,0001.; in 1861 it had reached the figure of 27,326,0001.—(hear, hear)—in 1853 it had further increased to 31,844,00 W. ; and in the last year, 1866, it is computed at 33,6080001. (" Hear," aid cheers.) I believe of late years it will be found that the growth of wheat has diminished, but that of oats and barley has in creased ; but the increase is still more striking with respect to green crops, turnips, and mangold wurtzel ; for I believe it is true that in 1841, there was an sere of green crops to every two of corn crops. Reseal' far back as 1847 the propor tion had shifted, and there was en acre of green crops to four end upwards of corn crops. (Mormon of dissent.) Will I make it clear ? I beg pardon—that there is now in 1855, an acre of green crops to every two acres of corn crops. No longer ago than 1847 the proportion was an acre of green crops to four and upwards of corn. (Hear. bear.) This, with respect to one of the productions of Ireland, and a very important one, of the crop of flax, for which the climate and ...lot belted has been thought particularly suitable, and to the growth of which the present war with Russia gives a great additional import une*. (Hear, bear.) The flax crops in 1849 occupied 60,314 acres ; in the year 1863 they occupied 174,379 acres. (Hear.) I believe the great "mount of flex that is grown is chiefly mill confined to Ulster ; but there see not wanting now enlightened proprietors who have made the experiment in this part of Ireland, in the west, and in the south ; and tf it be found remunerative—which, I beg to remind you, is the true and sound test of all practice—their patriotic eaample, I have no doubt, will be largely followed. Bit the crop of flax, as those acquainted with it are well sears, is too bulky, in proportion to the commercial part of it (the fibre), to bear the cost of carriage, without the aid of match mills ; and I find that the scotch mill. in 1864, last year, amounted to the number of 1,100. (Hear.) There fore there henry reason to believe that this most important article of produce is being largely and increasingly culti vated. Then you must not forget that while the productions of Ireland have thus strikingly increased, it is no doubt equally true that to some extent the population has dimi nished. (Hear.) Therefore the ooaditioa of the remaining population, I take it, has been benefited in two ways;, and so far as t heir mows hays command over the necessaries of life and the chit! articles of sunspaces are concerned, not only has the amount of food which is at their com mand increased, but there has aloe been a marked im provement in the soundness and nutritive character of the food. Thus, gentlemen, if such has been the continued progress, despite the blight of famine and the drain of emi gration, and the dreadful calamity of war, whether we refer to the productiveness of the nil, the enterprise of the pro prietors, or the general condition of tt • people may net our hopes for the future—sobered indeed by a reliance apse the inscrutable will of an all-ruling Providence—may aot oar hopes for the future be most encouraging and sanguine ? (Hear.) And if such be the general improvement in Irish griculture and the condition of the Irish population, let me add my earnest boot that this society, the great Irish Agri culturel Society itself, may long continue to witness sad develops its inestimable advantages under the genial auspices of your grace—(applause)—and that gathering "till increasing support from all classes and from all orders—thin those who represent the most ancient lineage, and the largest wealth of the country, and from those whose hest working industry and labour sustain the wide basis dose metal fabric—(applause)—briagiog to bear all the eel, lights of science—applying all such new methods, and {infernos all such old ones as experience may approve, this society may make each future year, as it has done each,past of its valuable existence, and find its best reward in the ackeew ledgmenop of new advantages confined upon a peaceful, • prosperous, and a crateful people. There has been a decided improvement is the weather. A correspondent of the Southey's Re porter writes as fellows as to the state of the grow ing craps : Senna reports have been Lode recently to the persona engaged in the traits in breadstuff', calculated to revive that spirit of speauletion whale during the past jean, and particularly thtlest, ceased each extreme distress and mi sers loth* Watering classes, and is now certain to react ow the parties engaged in it with conseconees whisk we may regret, although we may mender dinned.
