FORGED SIGNATURES TO PETITIONS. Mr. C. FOBSTER brought up • report from the com mittee on petitions, which was reed by the clerk at the table. [lt stated that the committee had strong grounds for believing that many of the signatures to • petition presented from inhabitants of Westmin ster in reference to t h e claim of Areem Jab were forgeries, and that they had also re.non to believe that the sigeatures to many petition. on the same subject were fictitious.] Mr. COX mid that bark' had charge of two of the pet'. lime be wished to my that before be presented them he adopted the Name course which he did with all other petitions he wee entrusted with—endeavoured, so far se he *odd, by examination, to we that the signeturee were geennts. He thought the committee ought to have stated the grenade on which they believed these particular sips tame were forgeries. It was impossible for a man always to moortnin whether the sigaimures to petitions he presented were genuine or not. (Hoar, bear.) Mr. BONHAM-CARTER said that during 18 yeas' experi ence, in the committee he sever saw so groin • fraud as that of the petition in question. The petition upon the has of it was fraudulent from first to last. (Hear.) The very first name was a forgery. This being within the knowledge of the committee, they were boned to bring the matter before the house ; but there was not the slightest ground for mu lls:slit in doing re they prejudiced the motion which was en uently debated. Sir .8 fi ELLEY said be promoted the petition onmplained of, hut was of tonne unaware that the names attached to it were forgeries. Representing a large constituency, it was impossible he could ascertain the poninenese of the sips tares to all the petitions be received for presentative. He hoped the house would take some course to prevent the abuse of a most important privilege, and to protect hon. members from being plead in the position in which be had been is this OWL The petition' was then ordered to be laid upon the table.

HOLIDAYS IN DOCKYARDS. Mr. FERRAND asked the Secretary to the Admiralty why the men in Demeport Dockyard were not paid in money for the extra hours they work instead of getting holiday time in lien thereof ; and, what number of hours attn. time the men worked last year, and what holidays they were compelled to take is lien thereof ? Lord 0. PAGET said as • rule the artificers and labourers In the dockyards when employed for extra time were paid for such extra employment. There were these exceptions, that oorasimally they asked for a holiday. and when they did so the great majority were desirous of being allowed to week extra time before baying such holiday. No doubt there were rases whom • minority would prefer not having a holiday, but it was clear the yards could not be kept epic, and all the fires kept going for the sake of lupin a few of the men employed. There were likewise rare came when the mea were obliged to work extra time tidal work, where • ship hid to be put into desk, or taking her out of dock, and as a rule the men who did that extra work were allowed so many hours' holiday on the following day, but as • rule all mimes employed extra beers retrieved extra pay, and be was not aware that say complaint had been made of that arrangement. THE watrwowre AND ARMSTRONG GUNS. Mr. H. BAILLIE asked the Under Secretary of State far War whether, in the competition which had been per. ried on between Armstrong sad Whitworthgnea, they had been tested by oblique Mag.

Sir W. GALLWEY asked the Preaident of the Board of Trade whether his attesters had been directed to a letter in the Tunes newspaper yesterday, desoribiug an accident on the Onset Western Railway. which might bare been attended with moat dreadful results, and whieb strongly showed the neeemity of • commusieation between the passengers in • railway train and the guard. The hon. member thee read the bitter, which stated that be lett Oxford by the 5.30 train, which stopped only thee as the way, namely, at Reeding ; that shortly after leaving Reading they were startled by the jerking of the carriage. On looking oat of the window he Maw sparks dying from the of the wheels, and pen:mired a throes smell of Are. He and the other passengers did all Is their power by shouting to all the attention of the guard or the driver to the mrenmetesice, bat in vain ; that the same alarm was felt by the pump's in other str =Tand they also shouted to the guard, but in vain ; he very moment they reached the static at Paddies hr the wheel dew off.

Until they had made their inquiry we must be cutest to wait pa tiestly Sir W. GALLWEY asked whether the question of woo mennicatios was included in the terms of reference to the oommissice Mr. M. GIBSON said not in terms, but the gourd gum. l ine of safety was, sad he concluded that the oommia ! noun would feel it their province to (squire into that subject. Coloeel DICKSON asked whether the comotisiosen were likely to come to say decision whine the next two years. and whether the public were to wait for any change until that time. Mr. H. GIBSON said he must decline to speculate es the time the coonniesioners would take. He concluded they would make fall inquiry, and take whatever time 11112 INCIONSI7. NEW ZEALAND. On the order of the day for going into committee of "C l J. y, TEEL &WHY said be wished to ask whether the prochurtatios made by the Governor of New Zealand of the 17th December, 1864. was to be corned out to the letter and according to the words of the dooninest or whether it was to be istorpreted by the erbibtiary principle which had bees established and acted spa by the Governor himself, as was the case in the treaty of Waitangi, which was vio lated by Governor Brown, which act was described as the unfortunate cease of the war. We bad about ten thousand men in New Zealand, and were about to vote 14000,0001. or 1b,000,0001. for the army, and it would be eatiefactory to how in what sense the proclunakion was to be uoderetood. He hoped the right hon. ragman would repudiate the actin that it was not to be literally carried out. Its. CARDWELL vindicated the conduct of Governor Brews with regard to the treaty of Waitaegi, and ob served that he had not the slightest suspicion that the Governor of New Zealand and his ministers intended soy breach of faith, and certainly no instructions wq&ild proceed from the Colonial-office which would have any ardency of that land, or he conceived in any ssoh spirit. The right hon. gesthrman added, in snorer to Mr. Lyall and Sir H. Willerighby, that is the proems year there bad been a considerable Isere's' in the cootribotiou of the coney of Mauritius for military expeditors, and that advances by the Treasury to New Zealand sealed is 1863. THE RIBBON TRADE. Mr. TREHEENE called attention to the distressed con dition of his constituents, the ribbon weavers of Coventry, and drew a lamentable picture of the state of the manu facture, which he said had, under the operation of the emu menial treaty with France, been brought to the verge of ruin. He inquired whether any communication had taken plane between the British government and that of France with • view to the modigoation of the treaty. Mr. WHITE said that a hearer might almost infer from the speech of the hon. gentleman that the very deplorable discrete at Coventry gross from the very large import of ribbooa from Francis ; and the natural result of that would seem to he, that the Free& trade was in • very prosperous state. But how did the mos stand? He held in his hand a circular dated the 4th of this month, in which the writer bewailed the condition of the ribbon weavers at St. Edema*. And their deplorable state wan coofirmeil by other tertimony. Now he (Mr. White) was old *sough to remember reviler recurrences of this distress during the last forty years— (hear, hear)—and this must of ne happen, bemuse this was • department of industry whiob was particularly liable to the caprices of fashion. (Hear, hear.) Neither that home nor any other power could dictate what the bfrar portion al the world should select to adorn their .(" Hear, hem," and laughter.) But if his hos. ....1"Or the House of Commons could only induce that illustrious lady who ruled despotically over the fashions of Europe to take into consideration the distressed condition of the weavers of St. Etienne and Coventry, and to remove the gimp, or pouremecterie as he believed it was called, which ladies ware on their dreams, and replace them with ribbons, the trade would soon be in as flourishing • condition as ever it was before. (Heer, bear.) Now, in 1862, the value of the ribbons imported from Frame was 1,470,0001.; in 1863, it was 1,3590004 ; in 1864, it was 1,306,0001.; showing a &creme in two years of nearly 200, 0001. The hosoursble member had spoken of the large importatimi of silk manufactures of all kinds from France. In 1862, it appeared, we received 5,976,000/. worth of manufactured silk goods from all countries, hot mainly from France; in 1863, we received 5,776,0001. worth ; and last year we received 6,465,0004, the largest we ever received. But there had been • still larger export of raw and thrown silk abroad ; so that in the end it would be found that the accounts nearly Wawa, and that the French people took nearly an much from us se we received from them. That was am of the indisputable !motets ana log out of the treaty with Frame. But the hon. gentleman had wished to show that her Majesty's government really were responsible for the distress in the silk trade ; he might have pointed out their unwise intameetion in the affairs of China, and to the falling off is the supply of silk, which had bean entirely caused by that intervention. Mr. GIBSON mid, in reply to the first question of the boo. gentleman, that a communication had taken place on the gabfest of the silk duty between this country and France. The fact was that in the autumn of last year an inquiry was made of the French government whether they were disposed to rodeos the duty upon English ribbons imported into France. The reply was that France, la the course of a short time, intended that the duty upon silk of British manufacture imported into France should be reduced from 8/. per kilogram to 4f. per kilogram, being • reduction of 50 per mot.; and the whole duty, of course, would form • duty of 3i per cent. ad valorem. This must be acknow ledged to be a very small import duty, if it could be called an import duty at all. (Hear, hear.) He entirely °oc curred that it would be desirable that the silk ribbons manufactured and sent into Franco should be equally fairly and impartially admitted into France as they were into England. But it mast be admitted that after the cheep which took place in 1860 in the French duties upon imported manufactures—after soshort • time, 50 per oent. was a vsey large reduction is the import duty on • OD& article. (Hear, hear.) He thought there was good MOOD to hope that the ribbon manufacture was not is so hopelessly declining a state as the hon. gentleman repro seated. Still he admitted there was great distress, mid if the hon. gentleman pointed out any mode by which it could be relieved be would he glad to assist him in giving it effect, but he must frankly tell him he did not himself see his way to any legislative remedy. Mr. NEWDEGATE expressed his thanks to the govern ment for getting the duty on ribbons imported into France reduced from M. to 4f.; but when the right hoe. gentleman said the duty was very low, he begged to remind him that the effect of the duty mutt not be measured spinet the total prim of the article, because the silk of which it was made constituted by far the largest part of its value ; and he believed his hon. friend was quite right when he said that the import ditty was • disadvantage to the English workman as competed with the French of 20 per cent. The French treaty of 1860 was • very one-sided one, and • very bad bargain for England. Mr. BENTINCK did not think the answer of his right boa. friend would do much to raise the spirits of the work people of Coventry, whose distress bad been so strongly represented to the house. Hie boa, friend had hardly gone to the root of this question, for he said he brought it forward not as • question of politic, but as • question of humanity. Who ever beard of the humanity of a politiml economist? (Laughter.) One might as well speak of the sensibility of • boa constrictor or the amiability of an alligator. (laughter.) Political economists carried out their views at any cost or sacrifice. and without regard to human suffering. The whole object of political economy was to procure cheap labour, and the whole science of free trade consisted in these two words. Hs thought the time was shoot to arrive when the artisans and the agricultural labourers would awake to the delusion which bad been practised on them in the name of free trade, for instead of the roast beef and plum-pudding which haA been promised them by freetraden they had to be sub. misted by charity.

(Chiers.) This wee, moreover, exclusive of the estimates for next year, the votes of credit for the war in Chins, and the mosey raised by the loans for fortifications. No doubt it would be said that this Increased expenditure had been caused by the necessity for reoptistructing our fleet, and for supplying the army sod navy with new guns. If that had been done—if the country had been supplied with • Navy, be would not say in advance of the rest of the woad, but on an equality with that of any other saline, and if we had guns equal to the requirements of the day— he should say that this enormous expenditure had been an economical ors.

(Hear, hear.) He was more alarmed in his life than by the statement of the noble lord as to reereiting. The noble lord said that, though it wee proposed to diminish the army by 1,400 men, he would not do it by actual reduction, but by check* reereitiog. Well, it had checked it most effectually. The noble lord stated that bat mouth there were actually 4,000 men re quired to make up the number of the army It was no Baia/action to him (General Peel) to be told * that the men were not wanted.

It seemed to lum (General Peel) that it was most to extend the period of ealistment to 12 years., as was • can is the cavalry and artillery; for it was found that the mos in those services reoolisted much more freely, bemuse they had a lees time to wait for their pensions.

TEE SOUTH MIMS ItAILWAT, This was so motion to mover &images for is)oldo ollerd to have bora austsioad by tho nosligeueo of tbo servonte of tho &fondants. Mr. McAdoo Chambees, Q. 0., and Mr. Lexten were counsel for the plaintiff ; fterjeant Reliant's» and Mr. White appeared for tu n ermpany. The eismunstanose uder w hit p ~~ this action appeared to be brought were of • very peculiar diameter. The plabitiff, appeared, had formerly been in badness as • master tailor, but was in reduced circumstances, and at the time of the aceideati he obtained his livelihood by worlds( se a jimmy man tailor. Oa the evening of the 151 k of °Mobile he had taken his seat in a third class ounine by a tasks that started from Charing-moss at 7.50 p.m. to go to kb resi des°, at Woolwich, and, according to hie evidenes, when the traM arrived at the Woolwich Arsenal statics them were three other passengers in the carriage—a woman and two men ; sad that when the train stopped the mime jumped out. He represented, however, th at the woman took some time to find her luggage, which was under the mat, and that this kept him from getting out, and that while hiarfoot was upon the step, the carriage was suddenly jerked bank, and be was thrown upon the platform, when his arm was broken, and he was otherwise severely injured. It was part of the plaiatiff'e case that this particular Ueda was usually sent tack to Loudon after the passengers bed left at Wool wich ; and It was alleged that the accident arose by the negligent manner in which this regulation was eatried out, and that the engine, which Me removed from the front of the tram to the back, for the purpose of retarbing with the train. had canned the mis chief by being suddenly forced against the earrienes. The evidence of the plaintiff was oorroboested by two parson% both of whom had forinerly been attorney's clerks, but one of whom seemed to have left that occupation and was now obtaining • livelihood by bill di counting, and one of them professed to swear in the moat positive manner to having seen the engine detatched from the front al the Ms& and sent to the back of it, sad also to haviag actually observed the collision, which resulted in the injury that was occa sioned to the plaintiff. Swiftest Ballantioe, in his address to the jury on behalf of the Booth Eastern Railway Company, said he did not deny that the plaintiff had received some injury, bat be should be able to show that it was entirely his own fault, sod that, under the oircumabiams, the company wine justi fied, not only for their owe protectioe, but also fat that of the public, ie resisting the attempt that wail made to obtain money from them. He then proceeded to state that he believed he should be able to show that the present 'Mica wee nothing more than the result of • foul oonspirecy that bad been concocted by the two lawyers' clerks, who, he believed, he should be able to show, were not is the carriageor near the spot at all, and that the present action would never have been brought if the plaintiff had sot had the misfor tune to fall in with the parson he bad alluded to, who had endeavoured to trump up an accident mains with • view to extort money from the defendants. Every one of the witnesses connected with the train in question and the railway, wham evidenriemmmired likely to throw any light on the transaction, wee then examined on behalf of the defendants. The Lord Chief Baron summed up the sees with very peat cam and ininutemeee, and he observed that it was impassible, from the nature of the evidence that had been given, that there could be any mistake in the matter, and that there must be • gross conspiracy and perjury on one side or the other. The jury mast therefore look at the whole ease, and consider which eat of witnesses were the most likely to be speaking the truth. The jury retired, and in about half an boor they returned into court and gave their verdict fee the defendants. SHOCKING SCENE AT AN EXECUTION. Yesterday morning Matthew Atkinson, the pit man, who was condemned to death at the Durham spring senses, was executed in front of Durham Gaol, for the murder of his wife, Ellin Atkinson, os the 17th Desember, 1864, at the Spec. • collier village neer Wielatoo, in the minty of Durham. The time appointed for the enmities was eight o'clock, and by six intending spestators of the ghastly eons came thronging thickly into the city. The greater proportion of them were evidestly miners, many of whom must have walked toe`` &Mann. Amongst the motley gathering were a 000aidersWe comber of women , and young girls sad boys the females flaunting in the gaudy colours which charac terise the holiday attire of the women of the mining population. About half past levee Aiken, the executioner, appeared upon the scaffold, and proceeded to attach the rope to the crossbeam. He gave it sufficasot length for • fall of four feet, but r d not satisfied with that, he shortly afterwards returned sad increased the fall by about half a foot more. As the prison alook struck eight, the undereheriff stepped time the scaffold, closely followed by Atkinsoo, who looked wholly cool and collected, but deathly pals. He walked forward and placed himself beneath the gallows. White ed in brief devotion with the chaplain, his internee seemed to be affected by an irrepressible convulsive twitching of the lower jaw but this was the only sign of emetics per ceptible. Just before Ashore put on the cap and drew the noose around his seek, Atkisson cast a rapid glance up wards end mound, as if taking • last look at this earthly sone. The bolt was drawn, and the drop fell, but as the rope tightened with the weight of the miser- We culprit, it napped like • pion of psekthread, and he fell with • thnidering crash into the interior of the scaffold. The dreadful merit was rendered more horrible still by a hoarse sad deafesing cheer bunting from the throats of the bridal spectators. The greatest excitement instantly prevailed. What was peering within the grim scaffold no one without could tell, and speculations were heard on all aides as to whether the fall kid killed the wretched man, or, if not dead, whether the officials would proceed to reeinset the ghastly tragedy there sad this. At the expiration of 20 neuter Askero settled all doubts as to what would be does wider those unusual and frightful eireurnaterese by appearing os the scaffold with • piece of rape ias thin again NI that which hd Illanna. While attaching it to the beam he was saluted by &storm of groans sad hisses aid loud odes of " Oh, you villain." A nuance two afterwards, to the surprise of every_ one, the 11111rd•rer stepped seep ported upon the scaffold, his pallid features hawk; seamed • purplish tinge, and his meek being circled by a dark red mark, showing what • terrible wrench the rope had give. him. Ashen put the noose sroned his nook mid put forth so much strength in drawing it tight as to draw down epos him soother storm of hoots and groans. Own; to the thickness and rigidity of the rope, however, he failed todraw it close, and the consequence was that when the drop fall the unhappy criminal struggled frightfully for several m onde before the gallows did its horrible mission.
