(Hear, hear.) Still, if ft be a leen, se I have no doubt ft is, I pant that evety kind of aid to foreign countries, for the purpose of eetryieg on war, is In soy cue a very serious matter. This, however, is not the first time that aid has been extended by us to foreign Gauntries . tiring the present war. It I the first time that it has been extended in the shape of mosey but other services have been sounded, which, if estimated in money, would amount to • very considerable sum, both with respect to the Bade sad the Mediternsean. And I am sure the right hon. gentleman does sot mean to go the extreme length of stating that we are entirely to abjure the principle of making the resources of this country available for the purposes of war, otherwise than through the medium et our own military wilehlithisents ; bosun, while I feel yak him that while the system of subsidies, es carried on duel/lithe lest war wee both irises to the states recede keg theft and le . e wer..., yet think there are drown seines attesting the meths of this country, and the ins seem unseen of Its pecuniary means and resources, as Gemmel with its military means, which make it obviously neennehie thee, with echoes en to the mode of giving effect M the iis y swe eitslieuld set absolutely out yourselves off from to kedge sties., in one shape or another, Mose the protecutim of a common AIM through the Itallana of a loan. (Hear.) It is not ooly fa the last war, but in every war also the Revolution that you sited on that principle. The only qesitlie thersibie iv, whither the hese is safe end judicious, and whither them is is edsgethe swiessity for wonting to such a resehities. I Wm the Aim le safe sad judicious, and I say that bessins tavi ii i i s lee th e NOVICSIIiIIt MMUS for the bona ft... of the and for the &Amities that it is sot • subsidy that we MC sliessesies, buts simple loon of missy. Then mist the Moieties, is it necessary ? That I auk requires bee little ergmeest. No one can say that it is see se to bring se sensidereble • contingent into native service the Crimea at the shortest sone, aid in the aide of operations so vital. (Hear.) It is said, " Here you on at the end of the first year of the war obliged to esk for foreign aid." That may be so. But did not the some thing happen in the last war ? In the second or third year of the last revolutionary war, we gays a subsidy to this very Sardinia. And if y_os have to do this et all. the quicker It is doss the better. (Hoer.) It is not good policy, it is not humanity, it is not even economy to protract the operations of war. (Hear.) To accelerate the operations of war, and to strike a blow at the most vital part of your enemy, that I. the foundation of sound policy, and instead of making our preparations too late, aa the right hon. gentlemen on the edaer side has mid. perhaps our efforts were too early. The miming' of the Sardinian contingent, in order to give Abe to such a policy, Is an ample justification of the propo sition of her Majesty '. government. At the same time, I think the whole question of pecuniary aid to foreign powers ought to be seniUnised with the greatest jealousy, and that measures of that class could not be justified without the clearest foundation of public advantage, and the cloned proof of their aseemity. (Heir.) Mr. ADDRILLIY said the noble lord who introduced this reselaties seemed to think that the character of the king sad esseihnlies of Sardinia was • sundries motive to indite. the hems Magree to it. He would not deny the ladies of the passprie which had been passed on both, but something mere wee required to justify the House of Com mons in essides le a loan. Whatever the character of the present ese—whether it was • subsidy or loan—it was at best se sit, sad however faithful Sardinia might be M km ingsgenetsle, they could hardly hope to see the day when the espied would be covered by • sinking fund of one per Gent. They were asked for a million this year, and • million neat year, and there was something in the resolu tion which was calculated to lead to the suspicion that a million • year was to he paid to Sardinia sturenre hello. The noble lord said that the epee of 1,000 soldiers was 40,0001 . , which would gin 600,0001. for 16,000 men. But 600,0001. was little more than half the sum to be paid to Sardinia. (Hear.) If this was bat a temporary aid to Sardinia he hoped the government would make the most of the time, in order to develop the warlike resources of their own country. But if it was a permanent loan he did sot see why England should be celled on to give it any more then France, or any other country, as it was to be presumed Sardinia entered into the war to battle for her own interests. Ho would ones mon urge upon the government to have recourse to the colonies for volunteers and soldiers. He believed that • regiment of 1,000 Canadian riflemen would be of more value to them than 16,000 Sardinian irnaPa i altho ug h h e admitted the Sardinian army to be • gallant one. The noble viscount asked whether they wished to send out raw recruits to the Crimes. No • but was the noble viseouat sure that the Sardinian tro p ps were all veterans? (Heir.) He would main urge on the government not to lose the time which these contingents would give them to develop, the reeources of this country. (Hear.) Mr. EINNAIRD said that Swink gave the only hope of good government to oppressed Italy, and he thought that consideration should have inclined the hon. member for Manchester to take • wider view of this subject than he seemed to de. The right hon. gentleman opposite by his remarks costributed to defeat the effect of the Foreign En listeneat Act—(bear, hear)—and he was sorry to hear him say now that the Sardinian contingent would be tributary and mercenary troops. (" No, no.") He took down the right hon. gentleman's words. He knew that hundreds of brave men would have taken servile under the Foreign Enlistment Act were it not for the language of the right hon. gentleman and others, which represented them as being mercenaries if they did so. (Cheers.) And the language he now used with regard to Sardinia could only tend to diminish that cordiality between the two countries which it was so desirable should Wet at the present time. Mr. DISRAELI was surprised at the language of the bee. member who had just spoken. What was the motion before the house ? It was at least a motion for voting public money to the extent of 2,000,0001., and yet the bon. onion= was surprised that • member of the House of should mane any comments on a proposition of that character. (Hear, hear.) Why, it would be most indecent in the House of Commons, however unanimous they might be, if they allowed a proposition affecting the public purse to such an extent to pees in complete silence. (Hear, hear.) He entirely protested spine what had too much developed itself is the course el the debete—namely, the anxiety to call attention to the aster* of the government to which they were giving what he would cell, in order not to raise an y . more discussion, a lout. It wield be found most inconve nient to take into cosside ratios the state of religion and the degree of palled liberty Is a mantry to which they were making loss, limn the opposite set of arguments be mid If they considered . it their interest to make a loan to a country where a free conrinition did ass exiiit. (Hear, hear.) He guarded himself urea against casting any imputations on Sardinia, which, in it week be quit* alien to his holism to do. The noble imposed it se • blame to the government of Lord Derby that they gases give a more effectual devimiest to the militia. That hod bees so completely answ ered already by the hon. gentlemen eitreite that he did not feel it mow my to add snylideg thereto. It was quits evident that U • eLw fifths mew indicated by the noble lord were iss tooloosi kW tlot Militia Bill, it would have secured the essibensetion of the mimeo. (Hear, heir.)

He could rely mount for such neglect by supposing that they had an intention of seriously engaging in the war, and that by sealing out tli.ir fleets they imagined they would frightes Shammy and prevent him from entering upon that war which the government by their policy entailed on the country. (Hoer, haw.) The noble lord bad rnie represented what he mid es this point ; and indeed he never linseed to so man nikeepropestations as the noble lord's speech contained. ( .)

He could assure the right hon. gentleman, that U that semen wu obtained by what fell from him and his friends is that and the other boon of parliament, it by no means tended to raise the country in the estimation of foreign nations. On the contrary, he was bound to say, that the indignation thus mated on the Continent had an injurious effect on the reputation of England in foreign countries. (Hear, heir.) Re mead not but help thinking, therefore, that the right boa. gentleman rather hastily let drop the expression of his mutation on what he termed his sue allisr.Te right honourable gentleman said it was =mful that they should be obliged at the begi nn i ng i. to have recourse to these extraneous means. But It was precisely at the beginning of a war that these extre misme means might be necessary. (Hoar.) It wu at the begisaim of a war, when they were called on to make a great snit with a pesos establishment, that you wanted this foridga assistance. But if the war continued any length of time you might then raise troops of your own, which would render foreign auxiliaries no longer necessary. (Hear, hear.) The argument, therefore, that it was at a beginning of a war they had recourse to foreign troops cut the very opposite way to that for which it was brought forward. hrear, e hear.) He would no. say a few words on question of this being a subsidy or a loss. They bad fairly rejected the notion of • subsidy, ani had seitmod into the alliance on fair and equal terms, though it was more convenient to obtain motley on the security of Ragland than to find that money oa their own resealed hihty. The right hon. gentleman seemed to think that he , had trespassed on the house by delivering a second speech, and though he (Lord Palmerston) had exceeded him by one, yet he bad thought it right to do so in order to correct some misunderstanding. The right hon. gentlemen had made • mistake se to the militia, when be complained that they Ind sot embodied the whole militia at once, and said it was a proof of want of foresight, but the answer wu that they had not the primes the law then stood, for they only had snob power in the cue of an actual invasion, or imminent clanger thereof, and therefore it was not until they, had pond smother act that they had power to embody the URN& As to the Irish militia, that required another act to it, but even if they had had the Scotch sad Irish embodied at an early period, it would not have given Sheathe force available for those purposes for which they sow wanted the Sardinian contingent. After remark. from Mr. WaLroto, Mr. J. Batt, Mr. COIIDXN (who regretted to NO an alliance betweea Sardinia and Austria), and Mr. Musa*, The vote was agreed to, and the house resumed. NEWSPAPER STAMP DUTIES BILL. Mr. COWAN presented a petition from the letter-press printers of Edinburgh, for the repeal of all restrictions on newspapers, and praying that four ounces of any printed matter might be allowed to go through the post fir one penny. Sir J. V. SHELLEY presented petitions from different parts of the metropolis to the same effect. Mr. M. GIBSON presented a petition from the proprietors of the Illustrated London News in f of the bill, and stating that great inconvenience and injury to newspaper proprietors would arise if the question were not settled im mediately ; also four With's' from book publishers of the metropolis, including Mews. Longman, Murray, Chapman and Hall, Roulledge, Bentley, &c., praying that printed matter might be allowed to pass through the poet at the rate of one penny for four ounces. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER then moved that the bill be read • second time. Mr. DEEDES rose, in pursuance of notice, to move as an amendment that the second readies be postponed till after the Chancellor of the Exchequer had made the finsa ate statement. The question having bean put, Sir B. B. LYTTON could assure his hon. friend that it was with sincere regret that oa that question he found Weigel! obliged to differ from him and many other members on that (the opposition) side of the house. Before he sat down he should examine the validity of the erguments on which his hon. friend based his objection to the progress of the measure. He was glad to find that he did mot attempt to restrict the debate to the cramped and sorrow ground put forward in the amendment—the ground, aunely, of pounds, shillings, and penes. (Hear, hear.) He himself must advance some claims to the remote pater• nity of the principle, at least, of this measure. (Hear, hear.) He was, he believed, the first person to Introduce into that home • motion for the repeal of the taxes upon knowledge —(hear, hear)—including the stamp duty on newspapers; and as to his hon. friend's remark that this bill had not been sufficiently keg before the house, he must allow him to observe that it was more than twenty years since he (Sir E. Lytton) first introduced the question. He was then • very young man, and the opinions which he formerly entertained on this subject had not been removed, but bad been strengthened, by the lam of time. (Hear, hear.) During the lest twenty years there had been a great increase of intelligence among the people, and the danger to be apprehended from cheap publications was considerably lees now than it was at the commencement of that period. But why had the danger diminished? Because within the last twenty years all kinds of cheap publications had abounded, and the public had had the wisdom to choose the best and to reject the worst. (Hear, hear.) He recollected hearing it SW that the mass of the common people if left to thew selves would have recourse only to licentious and immoral publications. What was the fat? Why, that in propor tion as good books had bun made cheap, bad ones had ro treated from circulation. (Hear, hear.) Let them inquire what were the works that most pleased the artisan and the mechanic, and they would be told that they were cheap elementary scientific works, and those books of amusement which were read equally by scholars and critics. Yet, after the mass of the community had disproved the alleged danger of cheep publicatioas, newspaper proprietors had put forward, and his honourable friend (Mr. Dudes) bad repeated, the objection that cheap newspapers would corrupt the working classes. Was it, he asked, the cheapness of the newspaper that was to eerrupt the artisan, or was it the vileness of the artisan that was to corrupt the newspaper? (Laughter.) He agreed with his hen. friend that it would be an set of justice, as well as of sound policy, to give to newspaper proprietors an effective and simple law of copyright. He thought copyright should be protected by the provision of a *upend summary mode of proceedingoimilar to that which, was provided for the benefit of manufacturers. Farther, I issmed to him, that when they were framing a geared law, under which newspapers were to circulate illeseigh the post for a penny, it was but fair and Moral that they should take as the standard that newspaper which had the largest circulation. He had boos told sines became into the house, that the Chancellor SI Wee Exchequer meant to return to the principle of weight. If that were so, he should adopt the principle of the weeds Expend* Atrosibelais. (Laughter.) It was puerile to separate the Times from its supplement, the supplement being au Integral part of the paper, and that part, too, in which the mercantile portion of the community took the meet lively , interest. He was far from feeling any 'grades waist the existing newspaper press. On the contrary, his valued It highly, alike for the ability with which it was seadateed, onil for the integrity of its conductors.

(Hear, hear.) There were two means of to : presontin opinions in parliament and through the press. If be were to ask his hon. friend b e y, him (Mr. Deedes) bow conservatives were represented in parliament, he was sure that he would reply, that they were the largest body in the House of Commons ; sculpt, in the press, there was no single section of popular opinion which was so slightly and inefficiently represented. If his hon. friend were to calculate and consider this matter, then was ne doubt that he would arrive at the same conclusion as himself. But if the present artificial restrictions were removed, could his hon. friend doubt—could ary ma n doubt—but that the talent and knowledge which the eon. served?' party possessed would find its proper and natural channel ? No doubt hut that all opinions would find an expression ; but those which were sound would ski. mutely, and within a comparatively short time, pre. veil. Men of safe and sound opinions, who might be oe the liberal aide, would feel it their duty to curb say revolutionary excesses which the change of law might in the first instance give rise to, and upon the conservative side the change would but increase the number of its advocates, He was persuaded that there were writers upon that aide, gentlemen and scholars, who, if this duty were removed, would publish some cheap journal, not attempting to rim with the province of the daily press, but to convey opinions which should be stamped by the publicity of their avowed same. (Hear, hear.) Would that tend to lower—would it sot rather tend to elevate the character of the press ? He did not deny that the system of anonymous writing was sometimes useful and effective, but the uniform and rigid preservation of anonymous writing was the only power of the press which he held to be invidious. (Hear, beet) Nolan» able, no more accomplished gentlemen than those who contributed to the principal departments of our leading Ovalle could possibly be found; but it was vain to deny that everyone felt a certain 11110911111014 of social intercourse when he thought that the very hand which grasped his own in friendship might on the morrow, in the exercise of its profeuional duty, sting him through the medium of as anonymous article. He (Sir E. Lyttes) recollected a tale in which it was said that a witness against a man who was charged with murder rested his testimony upon what had been told him by a ghost. " Well," said the judge, who who a mac of some humour, " I shall have no objection te take the evidence of the ghost ; let him be brought into court." So it was with these anonymous writers ; he had no objection to take their evidence, but there were time when they certainly ought to be brought into court. (" Hear," end laughter.) His hon. friend below him (dr. Dries), in common with some hon. gentlemen who bad spoken on a previous occasion, treated this as a question between the proprietors of newspapers and the tax collector. iireally, he could not help smiling when it was said that the reprieters of newspapers do net complain of the tax, sad therefore it should not be altered. But what corporate body ever did complain of a tax which restrained compe tition, and secured to itself a monopoly ? (Hear.) He mast say that be had been amused to see the arguments pat tor ward byrhase who gave such very hard names, not very long dace, to the ooaservative party, and who were at the pre sent moment using antiquated arguments for protective duties amounting, indeed, to absolute prohibition. (" Hear," and laughter.) But the question really was between the taxgatheren and the public. (Hear, bear.) And he ven tured to maintain, that they who regarded the principles of the constitution, of civil liberty and of common sense, would say that opinion ought to be free, not tented round with fiscal regulation., but subject only to the law of the country against treason, bla.phemy, sod slander. These laws would remain notwithstanding the present bill, although from whet hon. members said it would almost emu as though they thought otherwise. It had been said that the proposed alteration would lead to the establishment of cheap slanderous prints, circulating among the poorer and working classes. But the fact was, that among the working classes these publications were never cirmiated to any extent, and he would call the attention of the house to the fact that at all times an evil press first spread it, cor ruptions among the aristocratic portions of the com munity. He would take the instance which was WWI familiar. Was it not the wits, and the noble and the high-born abbes who brought into fashion mad first introduced the revolutionary doctrines of Berstau and the infidelities of Voltaire ? It was not a acre theory of his own that he was stating. When a committee of that house sat upon the question some year since, they found that upon the reduction of the stamp duty in 1836, when one or two respectable journals were eiw blished in the metropolis, they had, although far from first rate, succeeded in ousting the cheap scandalous prints which existed before them. (Hear, hear.) The house ought to deal with this matter as the country gentlest' did with his fields at home. If he wanted his grass Wiping up frailly and abundantly, be cleared away hedgerows ad gave it light and air; so in this case, let the house sweep away these incumbrances and the result would be healthy action. (Hear, hear.) It appeared to be superfluous at the present day to urge the question, whether that ought to be done by a side wind which no one woald dare to do openly. The fact was, if the house desired to repress the growth of periodical literature, it no longer had the power to do so. The Chancellor of the Exchequer told them that the stamp duty had broken down in all directions. There were no less than 250 publications only partially stamped, and which were all liable to prosecution, but the govern ment could not in justice prosecute one without prosecuting all. The Chancellor of the Exchequer having pat the house in possession of that fent, said if the present measure were not passed the government must be armed with greater powers of prosecution. He (Sir E. Lytton) ventured to say, that the House of Commons would consent to no such arm ing —(hear, hear)—that it would never put the government in possrtaion of toe means of staying those who were entices to diffuse information. But if the house were foolish enough to pass such a law, and to give such a power, be should like to see the Attorney-General who would dare to enforce it, and the government who would dare to empower him to do so. But when the right hon. gentleman (the Chancellor of the Exchequer) said such a thing, he was virtually sayieg that the law was dead ; he might retain the sword a short time longer, but be could no more nerve the arm to wield it. It was true that the amendment of his hon friend did not go to the principle of the bill, and it was moreover true that it was based upon a ground who would always dema mis zel iti the ao seri ms ous ho a n tte f n e t e io n n d es of id th th e at H th ouse e bill o Co mmons.

But in fact he did not believe that the or of the Exchequer would lose one single farthing If he would adopt, as it was said he intended to do, the principles of the former resolutions upon this subject. Hs (Sir E. B. Lytton) remembered that when be went into this oration 20 years ego, and considered the multitude of tracts —literary, commercial, scientific, and religious—in short, the vast amount of matter published for universal diffusion, he had been led to the conclusion that a change would not he feet lead to a loss of reveling.

Amongst other things they said that the parties chiefly urging this matter were men anxious to destroy religion, and to upset the rights of property, as well as to overturn the pure I sate of things. Now among the most active supporters . of ' this measure were the hon. memben for the West wad for Manchester (Maus.
