Earl GRANVILLE observed that, in reply cad uake pet the tuber day by a noble lord opposite, be stated the reams why the governmeat had net accepted the offer made to them for the coosolidatio• of all the public offices under sae roof, sad be wished now to add that in rej eting it there was net the slightest wish to east any slur upon the parties who made it on the ground of the insufficiency of • their securities. In the interview which took placer between the Chief Commimioser of Works au those parties not a word was said about securities; but his right bon. friend Mated that the gorernmut, upon mature consideratioa, had use to the eloalituon that the plan proposed would not efeet may saviag of expense, and, therefore, ought set to sautimeed. The Rail of )lALMESBURY thought the Chief Com missioner of Works forgot the itoportaat eonsidnetion of . lime. The plan proposed he thought a desirable one, taw Mesh as it Seed the limit of cost and the time within which the works would be completed, viz , five years—aduatages which bad certainly been wanting in the banditti of the SSW kOSSIIS of palm:tent. After a few words from the Earl of ELLunioaotrog, euggesdag that the whole of the roof of the new offices Mesta be belle at °se t me, sad a remark from Lord 111100011/01 se to the iaccanvenienee of carrying on the lees ledge sad legal basin's* of the Howe of Lords in the same elember, the subject dropped. THE HANGO MASSACRE. The Bari of MALMFABURY—I rise to draw the atten tion of her lispetes goverment, and to ask from them la dormatios ingeneet to a subject which toes Alm the sable mind of thilitentry, sad I doubt not of the whale had. Ifssd Zeitspe, with feelings of honer acd dismay. Ton lordships will readily understand that I allude to the Mir sane oa the coast of Rana, near Hangs, of a boat's onst, with the officers is emend, Winging to her Maimire dip Cossack. (Hear, hear.) It will hardly be easswary few me, me lords, to go *to the detail" at this ems' and uojestifiable eat, for your lordship" will d. ready have reel the despatch of Captain Fauns% of the Cossack, to Admiral Dann% who sent ale boat whose grew were made the victims of this weans outrage to land certain Russian primers at their Ma request at Hugo. and In which those detai'm are fully stand. (Hear, ha-) It will be sufficient, therefore, for ma Ile remind year lordships that the boat contained Resin prisoners who were seat antler a flag of truce, and eon landed by the lisatenant of the Commack, • surgeon, and este or two petty officers, who had charge of the prisoners, who bad beta allowed thiamin' to select the part of the Rambo nest at wink they lathed to be landed. It apposes that when they were put on shore at the wharf at Bingo, no one was seen ; bat soddenly the boat's crew and the liberated prisoners also were attacked by a large one* force, who Ind upon them and massacred all, with the 'sceptics of one, a man named Jo* Brown, who, though badly wounded, managed to *tape is the boat. An erdine to this mane account, the officer is emend, Lieut. One's*, was shot down while is the act of waving the Asset trace over his head, and while one of the Russian preens was andsiain to the attaches party the eirmmtaness under which, and the object for which, the landiag bad taken pima ; and it farther appears thet when the atrocity bad been coesummatsd, the Russian soldiers mat down into the boat, and threw overboard not only the bodies of the dead, but those also who were wounded. Such is the monist gives by Capt. Faathawe to Admiral Donde, upon the authority of the man Brown. Whim Admiral Deaden was first made acquainted with than fees, he naturally imagined that there bad been some meth Indiscretion, or that some amnion is displaying the !leg of truce, or mate fault on the part of the lieutenant in command of the boat had taken place, and would be made the seem for the perpetration of this wanton violation of all national sad of all barren raw —(hear, hear)—and neerdiagly be wrote to Captain Fasahawe, putting to hint a number of questions categorically, all of which being answered satisfactorily, Admiral Donde became conviseed that no blame whatsoever applied either to Captain Fan. sbawe, to the officer is command of the boat, or to any of ' the crew. (Hear, hear.) It is, however, but fair to add, I that not many hours ago an assent has reached Landes, and which appears in the second *dittos of a martin' paper, giving the Russian version of this melancholy affair. That account states that the whole of the boat's crew were not killed, but that nine of the men and two of the officers were taken minutes, three or . four of whom are wounded, and the rest they say wen killed In redstiog the Russian troops who attacked them when they landed. Not a word more to stated fa this account, but I have thought it fair to state to your lordships what Is the Russian version of the story so far as we know it. (Hear, hear.) Bat, eves seeming that this version is come', and that sine, sr rather eleven men including the two officers, were taken prisoners, though it mitigates in some degree the horrible enmity which, according to our Oita venom, had been per petrated, still it is nowise ezrepates the Russian soldiers, sad more especially the olden who emended them, from the complete sad wanton breach df the law t:f nations which they have committed. (Hear, bear.) The killing even of on ma, or math Ins, theta/in even of a single man pri mer, while under the safeguard of a deg of truce, is an in fresh* of the law hastens and of the law of honer able warfare, as taken tram the ancient code of the Middle Ages, foe the purpose of restraining man's arises when not espied In utast eonfliot, and which is adopted by every eidlesd nation. • lag of trues has been always honoured and bold sacred—ia every age and by every nation—it is necessary foe the Interests of humanity, and for the protection of the soldiers themselves —and I seareely know of an Mean of its having been violated. (Hear, hear.) I believe it you bees history throughout you will sot and a parallel either In easiest or modem times to this erosion set. (Loud oboes.) My beds, it is not to much for the purpose of denim( your lordships' attention to what bas herpes* that I have rime an this casein as to ask her Moiety's goverment what nano they *toad to plum anew the elremesteme f (Bess, hear.)

(Cheers.) Bow this Is to be dose—how punishment is to follow this violent of the emend law of satins, I with to know from her Majesty's garment. It is sot to me *suggest the ems, bat Ism mere ber Majesty's government will not think me stet pima in makfag then remain, and inquiring of my sable Mead opposite, the President of the Coned, what sauna they late* to pursue ?

Utast these eireurostaaces, my noble Mead will see that it Is not until we know what stops the Russian governineut intend to take in the matter that we car state what coarse it may become her Melody's govern ment to adopt. (Hear, hear.) The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH observed that the Admiral in ramenand of the British fleet would, in all pro bability, astiog upon his own discretion, demand an ex planation from the Russian authorities on the spot, and he suggested that the communication from the government to our minister at Copenhagen should go through Admiral Donde.. - The Earl of CLARENDON—The government will corn matieste t. Admiral Dundee the steps whisk have bees takes, but I know of ao other mesas of wattaivaisetiag with the Rossi= government Inept through the pettish eatbstreder. The But of ELLEN BOROUGH considered that Admiral Dundee baying received Captain Panshawe's explanation would have immediately sant In a flag of truce to the officer highest in authority oa the spot—probably to the Russian Lord High Admiral—stating the facts and calling for expla- nation, and for that reason be thought it ',Foetid have been pradent not to eater into any eorrespondence with the Danish government until it was known whether Admiral Dead's bad taken that step, and what bad been the result. Earl GRANVILLE intimated that Admiral Dandes had given no intimation of any intention to take the souse ruggested by the noble sail—but be did not think any great inconvenience would arise if a communication were made by oar admiral upon the subject, se well as by the Danish minister at Bt. Petersburg. —eaVoorteisly it is tamp, as It is the it ssNier ef every any i le sidled. sad tb• p pualliftest. is seder bar/aft whisk is lab 'obeli a the wen el Ode le *be itese—how ef the sewed kw of goveremest. bat I eat safe her Nei est of paw* staking *hie Mead oppeeito spans they *teed to p The Ned ef CLARI 1 1 1 treaties ra by my so .cob:.

Lord COLCHESTER believed it was the practice both in the army and navy, when any violation of the nooses of war was committed by the enemy, for the caster in com mand to demand an esplanation without waiting for is strectiou frem home. He hoped that the Russian govern ment would not only disclaim the act, but endeavour to And out and punish the perpetrators of it. (Hear.) Lord BROUGHAM felt convinced that they would dl. own and disclaim the act, but they must go farther, and punish those by whom it had been committed. The Earl of MALMESBURY had no objection to make to the coarse the government had indicated ; on the contrary, he thought, ander the circumstances, it was the most judicious that wind be adopted; but if the esplanades should not be satiefastoey, he trusted the government would not hesitate to take such farther steps as the justice of the ease required. (Hear, beer.) His noble friend had used the word reprisals—bat nothing in the shape of reprisals could be satisfactory--(hear, heat)—and if by reprisals the noble earl meant aggressive acts against Russian soliects of the same nature se that whisk had been perpetrated upon our unfortunate countrymen, it would bring dishonour upon the British nation. (Chasm.) What he would like to see his noble friend do was to briar the force of public opinion in Europe to bear against the act by ap plying to every government in alliance ;with her Majesty, and to every civilised people, and every girlhood sovereign to unite in a protest against the conduct of the cabinet of St. Petersburg, should it venture to uphold or defend so atrocious an act. (Hear, hear.) Depend upon it the force of opinion so brought to bear upon that cabinet would be too strong for it to resist. He hoped if his noble friend failed in obtaining the satisfaction he Woo properly demanded, that he would bring the matter before a jury of nations in the way he had suggested. End GRANVILLE referred to the remarkable general order issued by the Doke of York, is reply to the seagai• nary decree freed by the French conventioa, the effect of which had been that the French soldiers refused to obey that decree, bat iasteed to follow the generous example of the British army. He believed that the sane coarse woald be followed by a like result in the cue of the Russian soldiers. (Hear, hear.) OF MERCHANT STEAMERS BILL. The second reading of the bill amending the law relating to the measurement of merchant steamers was moved by Earl HAILDWICEI Lard STANLIT of ALDELLIBY opposed the motion, which was negatived on a division by 28 non•contents to 21 con. tents, majority 7.

Lord PALMERSTON—The telegraphic communication with the Crimea has been laterrapted for two or throe days, and that is the reason why no intelligence has been received.

But the anion is new for advanced. Every. body knows that, by o resolution of the House of Lords, bills which ors not sent up there before the 24th of July, unless bills of supply or on questions of urgency, will not be proceeded with by that house; and I ern sorry to say that, until the business of the government has made further progress, I shall not feel meet justified in postponing that business for the convenience of individual members. (hear.) Mr. LINDSAY—After the answer of the noble lord, and after what fell from a member of the government the other evening, I beg to give notice that to-morrow, upon the motion for the adjournment of the house to Monday, I shell repeat, in my place here, the statement which I made else where ; and I hope to satisfy the house that I was not utter ing a "ribald falsehood."

Mr. FRENCH said teat he regarded the slams as one of the most important of the whole bill, and without it the bill would not give satisfaction to the people of Ireland. He should tabs the setae of the committee on the retention of the words 'rising compensation for the reclamation of waste leads. 11Tr; POLLARD-URQUHART said it would be a perfeet preseed with the bill without this elan's. (Hear ) The Hereof the waste land of Ireland repaid the ex penditore of the capitalist, and much more would it pay the tenant for the expenditure of his labour, which was his capital. (Hear,) He was prevented from that reclean- I tion now because he bad no security that he would enjoy the fruits of his tell. (Hear, bear.) A bill with this clause had already puled the house, and he could not undentaod why it should be withdrawn limn this bill. (Hear.) Mr. BLAND ,greed with his hon. friends in regarding the principle of compensatlon for the reclamation of waste lands the most important in the bill. Mr. HORSUAN admitted that the improvement of waste lends was most desirable, and ought to be encouraged. Bat there were great diflleulties as to how the compensation could be awarded—so great, indeed, that he thought it better not to insert in the elan of eases to be oorepeniated that of the improvement of waste lands.

THE RUSSIAN GOVERNMENT AND THE HANOO MASSACRE. Tam can be no objection to the course which Government propose to adopt with reference to the Mango massacre, as stated by Lord Ct.inthrtnott in the House of Lords lest night. It is bat last to allow a party charged with a gross outrage an opportunity of exculpating himself, if he can, before proceeding to punish him. Bat Ministers ought to understand that the English people will insist upon their strictly scrutinising any answer they may receive from the Russian Government. Cabinets much more scrupulous and punctilious than that of Bt. Petersburg have been known ere now to disown their agents, when in danger of being held respoosible fur their acts. A mere disclaimer on the part of the Russian Govern ment, of having authorised the massacre at Mango, un less confirmed by facts learned from other sources, will not be worth the paper on which it is written. The Russian account of the affair, which we pub lished yesterday, appeared in the official organ at Bt. Petersburg, and it roaming not only falsehoods, but falsehoods which their promulgators cannot possibly have oredited. It is asserted that the boat of the Cossack was sunk ; that is false, bat the concocters of the tory in the Itoralsde Rum very probably believed it. They did nut think that say Englishman had escaped to contradict them. But it is calculating rather too confidently on the credulity of Europe, to expect that it will be credited that an attempt was made to arra a hostile landing by a single boat's crew, who had only seven muskets and seven cut lasses amongst : them. Perhaps the line of defence contemplated by the Russian Government may be inferred from the narrative in the Isoolide Russo: they do not appear to think of throwing the blame upon the soldiers, but of denying that there has been any violation of the laws of war. Before they are accused they have published an exculpatory lie, thereby betraying conscious guilt. A cowardly surprise and massacre is nut unprecedented in the annals of their warfare, as witness Sloops. It is ne• estuary to speak plainly on this subject. Thero is a disposition among some of our aristocracy to screen the Russian Government, and allow it to come off easily. What was the meaning of the suggestion thrown out last night by Lord GRANvILLE, that an appeal from the Russian Government to the Russian soldiers, such as was made by the Duke of Yoax from the French Convention to the French armies, might be effective P What have the Russian serfs— what have the Bashkir' and other savages in the Muscovite ranks, in common with the chivalrous sol diers of France P—Daily New. SUN PICTURES IN THE EAST. THE photograph is in daily use now under the bright sun of the Crimea. We who have been sit ting at home under the grey sky. which has hidden the summer sun from us till now, please ourselves with thinking of the sun-pictures which may be gratifying the eyes of our countrymen in old Taurids, and with seeing in " the mind's eye" the groups which we should like to have brought home when our victorious armies return. There was the bright, handsome town of Kertch, one day lately. What a picture it must have been when the townspeople were about their ordinary business, and the ladies were abroad in the streets, shopping and making visits, to talk about what was doing at the other end of the peninsula, as if it were in a far country—so confident were they of safety while the Russian army lay between them and the camp of the Allies. Day by day they had seen long trains of waggons pass by, laden with supplies, which would, as they were informed, enable their defenders to tire out the invaders. They were told nothing but the good news, and were elate with pride in the resources of the CZAR, and looked with contempt on the folly of the infidels who attempted violence against Holy Mother Russia. Some of them were probably counting the days which would suffice to drive away the foe, and leave the road clear for the nobles to bring their households down for their annual sea-bathing on the ' south coast, which they justly consider the Paradise of the world. In a moment, a general cry turned all eyes towards the heights, where a host, with glitter ing army, were passing over the ridge, and pouring down upon the town. Before the gay ladies could reach their homes, they met parties of the enemy filling the streets; and when at home they found the gates standing wide, and British soldiers coming forth laden with spoils. What a picture it must have been—unspoiled by bloodshed, but in all else • rude awakening from the dream of security. Another picture was presently to be seen on board the ships. Sailors dressed in gaudy ball array, or in rich Russian uniforms, while heaps of plate aid pic tures were put up to a mock auction, where the trea eures fetched nothing because of the difficulty of carriage. A silver salver to be had for five shillings, and nobody to buy, because it was so heavy! Mirth and fun abounded, because nobody was killed or hurt ; and shouts arose as batteries and magazines were blown up in quick succession by Russian hands, and exploded harmlessly in the air. A singular picture it must have been ! Next day, there was another, on the verge of the great precipice at Simpheropol. Behind there was the hot barren steppe, slopieg gradually down to the north, with not a house upon it—nothing but the wild thyme, hiding the nests of tae night hawk, and peopled only by the stalking cranes. Before and below were the beechwoode on the slope far beneath, and the ravines where the brooks were leaping sea wards, and Tartar dwellings peeped from their ledges or the hill-sides, and between the gorges of the mcuntains the blue sea line rose high on the horizon. Instead of looking before or behind, the somas of the army and of the anxious inhabitants were gszieg eastwards, on the watch for the supplies from the Sea of Azoff. For a day or two they watched in vain ; and then the news could no longer be concealed that no more supplies would come that way. They were probably told that supplies would henceforth come from the north, across the Putrid I Sea. But, in a few hours more, a horseman would come scouring over the steppe, to tell that no more aid would arrive from Genitchi,—that the enemy had burnt the stores, and captured the ships, and had the command of the passage of the Putrid Sea. The blank faces of the multitude who looked at one another in dismay must have made a picture which the potent sun himself could not stamp so deeply as despair on the minds of all who saw it. If this was a picture of despair, there was one of genial hope, not very far off. Those who attended the troops, Sardinian, French, and English, who swept the valley of the Tchernaya, tell us of the slopes where the horses were knee deep in grass and flowers, and where every poor quadruped which survived the hardships of the winter might now grow sleek, en joying the life in clover, after picking up barley from the mud, and drooping all night with tail turned to the midnight blast. But the change to the soldier is not less than that to his horse. Under the spring sunshine and rains the new gardens about the camps are growing their vegetables as fast as nature will serve those whom she had put to so severe a proba tion. And the good fellows see, not only a fine pro- mise of vegetable dainties, after a long course of salt meat, cooked or raw, but there is SOTEZ among them, turning their very salt meat and biscuit into dain ties, and promising dinners fit for noblemen when a little more sunshine shall have given them the re source of the gardens. The hospital patients no longer turn with loathing from their food, but watch its coming with hungry eyes, and say of their broth acd rice and fragrant coffee that these are the things that will set them up again. BOYER is the magician who hands them the charmed cup which renews their strength. Lord Racitan welcoming him as a guest would make a pretty picture enough; but one would rather see him among the sick and shrunk soldiery, who say that his is the true medicine, and that he is worth all the physicians put together. Not far from the spot, down in the harbour below, there is a spectacle which assuredly was never seen before—the returned prisoners and deserters sent into Sebastopol. The sending those men back has been a severer blow to Russia than taking any number of new prisoners.' Those poor wretches cannot be prevented from telling what it is fatal to the CUR that his people should hear. They tell that the British sol dier is a man, and no slave. They tell that no one in all that army has been taken from home against his will—that no one of those tens of thousands has been dragged from his sleep at midnight, bound and shaven, and driven to the war like a beast to the slaughter—that every man of them considers himself of the same species with his odious and his Sovereign —that every one may speak what he has to say, and lives under the protection of law, and the law of kindness. They tell what priests are in the camps of the Allies,—levying no tan, utter ing 11 promises instead of threats, and giving away their town comforts to sufferer., instead of pilferh their own profit, like the Popes of the Greek char* They tell of the solemn Sunday services in the in* camps, and what the clergy say and do at the beds the dying. If what these men say has reached td much more must it have spread in the other di r eet 4, • 4l —into the provinces of Russia. The insurreetion it the Ukraine is not put down. On the contrary i ti spreading so that the landowners are hastening to Warsaw, to be out of the way of the impeod44 vengeance. The clergy are having their turn i nt at the bands of the exasperated peasantry, c i d nobles know that they must escap e before the l ei have done with the clergy, or meet a fate too h nn6 ble for the mind's eye to dwell steadily upo n i t. There is no need to dwell upon it. It is enough 4 know that, without any plottiog on our side, el 4 seeds of disaft ction are carried from our camps Mt n the dominions of the enemy, and that the ideas and feel, ings sent forth into the heart of the hostile empi re seem likely to do more for the success of the rio t than all the material projectiles which we send to burst on the devoted city. Ka group in that city can present a more striking spectacle than dea n which cluster round the returned prisoner, listening with amazement to his report of what the impine invades are really like. There is another picture which might essilyba n been taken on the spot, so as to be presented to the bodily eye; but none is less needed, becaus e i t h impressed on every heart. Lord RAGLAN has visited FLORENCE NIGIITINGALE in her bickoess. Wh o cannot tell—or rather, who can tell whet hekno m must have been in the veteran's heart when he le. tered her presence ! He went to the Crimea, u now know, not on his own judgment, but in ate. dience to the orders of Government. He witnessed the horrors of the winter, and has had before hi eyes ever since, wherever he turned, th e graves of his soldiers. If all other hearts have sickened at the details of the hospitals, how must it have been with hi,! If he, who has passed forty years in superintending army organist Lion, has seen it fail, and all his toil issue in whole. sale misery and death, worse than mere warfare ever inflicted, what must have been his feeliugs towards that woman whose daring set at nought all official impediments, whose simple sense confounded profs► sional pedantry, and whose devottdoeas redeemed multitude whom a cruel negligence was tending to the grave ! The old general long ago gave a limb to the service. She, who lay pale and debilitated before him, had well nigh given her life. His cha racteristic "calm" must have nearly given way ha. fore a pressure of emotions,—such admiration, ea c h humbling gratitude as a grey-haired man has seldom felt towards a woman so unpretending, so careless of praise, so unconscious of her claims to the gratitude of the great and powerful, as well as of the lowly sad helpless. The general commanding in this great war mast have felt that he was rendering his homage to the true potentate. The honours of years, sex, rank, and office all humbled themselves at that moment before the dignity of youth, womanhood, simplicity, and voluntary service, rendered effectual by sense and the self-reliance of devotedness. Such a picture dote not need the sun to paint it. There is a source of light and warmth in every human heart which will render it even more faithfully. Sun pictures fade, sooner or later ; but this will lose nothing by the lapse of ages.—Daily News. THE NEW RUSSIAN JOURNAL AT BRUSSELS. We have received the specimen cumber of Le Nora, 'journal intended to appear daily at Brunets, as the adeo• eats of Russian interests. The number in queetion—iuued on Wednesday evening —commences' with a long article setting forth the objects of the journal, and its gen,ral character. While openly avowing the end of its existence to be tie defence of Ramis. a denial is given of the statement that it is the direct organ of the Muscovite government. True its projectors an chiefly Russians, but " we did not know that a journal to te impartial, and other than an organ of the Rutile° govern. meat, must necemarily originate with Englishmen a Frenchmen." The aim of the journal is to dispel existing prejudices against Russia; to correct the misstitements of travellers ; to prove that Russia is abreast is the walks of civilisation with the other countries of Europe, and that it contains elements of social, order, which cannot bet be Of the greatest service to other n►tions. In succeeding pages of the journal we find commur leaked from London, Paris, Vieraia, Berlin, St. Petersburg, ,14, There is also an article written to palliate the Hango mar . sacre, and offering by its bitterness an amusing comment upon the sugary promises of the programme. The " London Correspondent " sends a communicaticw, purporting to be the copy of • plac►rd disrdi buted over the United Kingdom, headed ', Why cob thins the war ?" and urging an instant acceptance of the Russian terms. The handbill in question, if it casts in England at all, was probably issued by the Peace Society; but we meet it for the first time in the columns of Le Nord. The letter from St. Petersburg chirfiy consists of a recital d the movements of the Imperial Family. Taking this as a " specimen number," Le Nord is a respectable production, but not calculated, either in its leading ; article columns or in its correspondence, to create In es minds of English and French readers any profound *Mr* : lion of Russian literature or Russian enterprise. The regular issue of Le Nord commences on July 1. THE " INVALIDE RUSSE " ON THE HAZING MASSACRE. We have received the St. Petersburg journal d the 13th and 14th. In the Invaide Busse we 6d the article on the }bingo massacre, which has excited so much attention, and of which we were the first to give an account. It is as follows: "Aide-de-camp General de Berg, commander of the troops in Finland, sends an account of a very happily executed skirmish (utte escarmouche fort he* reuse) near Hango-Udd, between the volunteers of the 2d battalion of the regiment of the King of Prussia Grenadiers, and • portion of the crew of the English frigate Kozak (Cossack). • "The following are the facts: "On the sth, at noon, the frigate Cossack ap• peered in the road of Hango-Udd, and sent to shore a long boat, which, after bringing to in the vicinity of the Telegraph, disembarked a small detachment Ensign Svertchkoff, of the regiment of the King of Prussia Grenadiers, who defended this part of the coast, having had timely warning of the enemy's aF tempt, posted some men of his detachment in ambush behind a building opposite the landing place, and sent another party with Non-Commissioned Offiest Pavloff along the shore, in order to cut off from ess English all possibility of retreat. Attacked unaware. (d rinaproviste), the enemy made but a feeble deism% and bad down their arms. The success of this 'Ur is attributable to the rang fruit' and to the sensible arrangements of Ensign Svertchkoff. "The enemy's loss consists of 5 men killed ; we bave taken an officer, a surgeon, a midshipman, and eight seamen prisoners ; 4 of them are wounded. The boat's flag, with 7 muskets and 7 sabres, were also taken. As to the boat itself, it was sunk, together wish the piece of cannon with which it war armsd.
