LEONARDS wished to know whether it was the intention of the goverumeat to proceed with the Limited Liability Bill, which stood for the second reading to. morrow ? It was a very important measure, and could not be dummied at that late period of the se.ssoa with such a thin attendance. He did not intend to offer any remarks on the measure, but he was satisfied that even those memb •n of their lordships' house who approved most strongly of the bill would skinless that in its present state it was a u.ost imperfect measure. Earl GRANVILLE Gould see no objection to proceeding with the bill. Some of the mast important measures of the union had been passed in a very thin hare. The Earl of HARDWICHE considered that the preesut au not the proper time for the consideration of a measure which involved masticator:es of such importance to the con dition of the manufactariag and labouring classes. THE QUEEN'S MESSAGE. The Queen's message of Friday last was eonsidered, and an address orsi••••1 to I. BALE OF BEER BILL. The Marquis of CLANKICARDIt rose, pureniat to notice, to move." That the @Meet committee appointed by the Howe of Commons having recommended an immediate amendment of the Bale of Beer Let of 1844, the:circumstan ces which render legislation essential on the subject matter of the bill which has been passed by the H .use of Commons are of such urgency as to reader the immediate considera tion of the ease necessary." This measure affected the well being of a large number of the people, and it was im portant that the session should not terminate without the question bell% settled in some degree. The act of last year was oaly passed at the end of the *ravioli, and came into operation io August. Great discontent was at once en. cited, and tte question was raised early in the present session, but as the government were unable to take the matter into their bands, a private member of the other house was obliged to take the initiative. Oa the 28th of June a select committee was appointed to inquire into the working of the set of last stoma ; they made their report so the 28th of July, sad the present bill, founded oa their reirommeadatioc, was immediately introduced, and passed through all its stayes with lit& or no oppositior. Their lordships would ass that it wu impossible for soy bill to come before them wish greater recommendations for I urgency. This bill came before them recommended by the g ~,,, meat and by the almost unanimous voice of the other house of parliament, the two Commissioners of Police, and 14 out of 16 magistrates of the metropolis had given evidence in f fit, and during the present &4111311 the petitions is f of it, presented to the other house of parliament, had been signed by the enormous number of 442,636 per sons. The present law seriously iocionvenienced the large number of excursionists who left London every Sunday. The returns showed that 12,000 of these a 'rived too late to get any refreshment if the public-houses closed at 10 o'clock. It might be said, they ought to go home in stead of to the pub:ie-houses. That might do very well for their lordship, who had something better than water at home, but the great msj Ray of thme people had nothing in their bowie but water, and that even • not good. They ought to do every thing in their power to promote the recreation and excursions of these people who lead to labour hard for gig days in the week ; an alteration in the law was now urgently required, as these excursions were most irequett in the months of August and Septembi r. The present law was a source of greet birdship to the large class of persona in the metropolis who kept no liquor is their house, but were accustomed to send to the public house for wh at they required. The act of last motion bed not in the least decreased drunkenness. Evert if it had, they had no right, in order to p a few persons from indulging in a reprehensible habit, to subject thousands and tens of thousands to an inconvenience which they felt must monthly, and with which they were most seriously discon tented There could be no doubt that the recent demon strati ms in the metropolis had been greatly increased and strengthened in consequence of the grievances created by the present law. The closing of the public houses at ten o'clock produced nu practical good, as the evidence showed that drinking in im proper and disreputable places had greatly increased. They could not prevent Sunday intosiestio:s altogether for many years to come. But a great improvement had been going on rapidly for many years, and it would proceed still further if the people were allowed to enjoy other modes of recreation, and to indulge in innocent amusements. There could be no more useful or beneficial amusements than theme affor.led by the excursion trains to which ha had already referred. People meat to Chepstow, Salisbury, and other places at a considerable distaste from London for recreation, and it was impossible to get back before lon o'clock. On these grounds he begged to move that the standing order be suspended. Lord REDESDALE did not think that the noble mar quis had made out a case of urgency to juetify the suspen sion of the standing order. The question was whether there was that extent of urgency which should induce them to proceed with the bill without inquiry. Certainly not. It was evident that on the 20th of Julie the House of Com mons did not consider the case to be one of urgency, fur they only appointed a committee to inquire into the state of the law. (Hear, hear.) That committee stated in their report that the evidence had net been taken far enough. (Hear ) There was a compromise of parties in the commtitee. Would their lordship then, under such circumstances, suspend the standing order ? Ile begged them to consider that it was no light matter to set it snide. Boring the two seseHts that it bad existed it worked well, and that he be• Steed was the opinion of the House of Commons itself; but its eff et would be lost if they proceeded to consider bids which were sot of real urgency. Of the witnesses who were examined by the Hose. of Commons committee 25 were from the metropolis, and but one from the country—a magistrate from North Wilts, whose evidence was in favour of the law as it stood. (Hear, hear.) Very little inconve nient), would result from postponing the consideration of the measure for another seseime, es the period of excursion trains wmald not extend beyond the ensuing month. It was proved in evidence that there were se many excursionists arriving is London between 11 end 12 o'clock as between 10 and 11, so that there was as strong • ease on that ground for keeping the public-houses open till 12 o'clock as 11. (Hear, beer.) He should therefore oppose the motion of the noble nougats. Lord LYTTELTON said that the more important the unsure the more it required to be considered. The or geney should be indisputable to justify them in suspending the order of the house. The measure was only recommended by a committee of the House of Commons, and he appre hended their lordships would not take that as a sufficient ground of authority. They should have a reference to a select committee of their own horse. He did not mutest the bill at all, but that was a different matter from the question now under consideration. Earl GRANVILLE thought that the case of urgency was made out, if there were sufficiently stomg political or other reasons for earryiekthe metienre. (Hear.) This was not a matter of compromise at all, as the nub's lord seemed to think. He believed the opinion of the committee was unanimous as to the inconvenience to the public from the existing law, and the different interpretations put upon it by &direst magistrates. He could hardly conceive a case of greater urgency than one where there were different in terpretations of the eau law by the constituted authorities ; and as to the ineonvenienee to the public, that was shown as clearly as if there had been evidence from all parts of the country. The Earl of SHAFTESBURY admitted that the law sight be amended, and even related, but he thought that on the 6th of August they ought to stand on the order of the house, on the faith of whith so many peers had left town, aa, in tie opinion, no ease of urgency had been Beta. blisbed. Some inconvenience there mght be from the pre sent law, but it was not so great that this measure might sot be palpated WI nut session. He believed the only ague, in the case wee this, that if the law was not re. this session it would ant be repealed at all. The sd friends of the seating law tendered evidence in its favour, but the eaunittu declined to receive it. Out of 30 wit noises who were summoned from the country but one was examined. How could it be maintained that the am was one of urgency when the evidence wax one-sided sad im perfect, and when it was certain that • large proportion of the working people themselm were in favour of the law? Those who would force this bill on the house were making the Here of Ueda& more satistretion °Sloe for the House of Commons, without any deliberate action or right of in dependent inquiry. ( Hear.) Earl ORANYIL said that the committee had rejected to beer the evidence tendered by the supporters of the law at the one hand, and by the licensed victuallers on the other. They took the evidence of the magistrates, and per. souse( that hind. It could not be said, therefore, that the evidence wee onnsided. The But of HARD WICKS said he should support the reeehaties of the noble marquk, became he thought that the bW contained only a wire and proper relaxation of the law- He thought that public-houses ought to be cloud during the been of divine service, and lige at a proper and reasonable hour of the night. This nag sot only for the advantage of the negotiable and religiously disposed, but for the advantage pt the working classes themselves, Se they would be better LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, AUGUST 7, 1855. prepued for their daily laws, nest day, by going to bed at a proper bout. There wu great difficulty in legislating ow this @eject, and he was glad that the law was about to be relased. Lord BT. LEONARDS thought thst the present ems mime within the rule of urgency No one would deny that it was a cam of urgency in the House of Commons. He should thereforevot• for the reeolution. The Earl of HARROWBY thought that the standing order ought to be @appended. Lord CONGLBTON said that the public bad now five hours and a halt to I , uy their beer on the Sunday—that was to say they took five hours and a half from the publican's Sannay. It was now asked to take away eicht hours of his Sunday. The real question then was one of the public ver sus the publicans. The present law was founded on the report of a committee which sat far two sessions, examinrd fifty witnemes, and reported in favour of closing the public houses an hour earlier than was now the ease. He was op posed to the Sunday Trading Bill, but this measure had nothing in common with the Sunday Trading 8.11. The Marquis of CLANRICARDE said that the public were in favour of the measure.

TURKISH LOAN BILL Oa the motion for going into committee on this bill, Lord ST. LRONARDS said be believed that there was no difference of opinion upon the necessity for the war; bat he thought that before they advanced • loan of this sort they should be satisfied that it bad not been in the power of the government of this country to make a safe and honourable peace ; and if they were satisfied on those two points, there could be no great difficulty in coming to the conclusion that they should grant assistance to Turkey in the shape of money. Nothing was further from his inten tion than to go into the details of the Vienna conferences, but he wished to draw their lordships' attention to the matter, and endeavour to satisfy them of that which he was strongly motioned of, that Russia war sincere in entering on those conference, nor at any period of them, except in this, to carry her own point solordiog to her own coretruetien. As early as the end of 1864, or the beginning of 18.56, the four points were agreedon ; the third point being that the Treaty of 1841 should bo re-considered with the view of admitting Turkey into the European family of nations, and for the purpose, of putting an end to the preponderance of Russia in the Black Sea. It was impossible that words could be stronger: it was not to curtail or limit, but to pat so end to. When the first conference was held the terms were very judiciously stated, and Prince Oortchakoff thanked' Count Boot for having stated the ease and put It so fairly before them ; and the proposition being to consider in what way the preponderance of Russia in the Black Sea could be put an end to, Prince Oortcbakoff put in a sort of proviso— which did not sound at all alarming at the time, but which was afterwards worked out to much g dimen sions—that Russia would consent to nothiag which would compromise her honour. The Allies bed ao intention to compromise the honour of Russia. but they had declared, in the moat emphatic terms, that they intended to put an end to the preponderance of Russia in the Bleck Sea. At lest the third point was raised, and the first question, the admission of Turkey into the European family, was agreed to on all hands, and the four powers e nteaded that Russia bad agreed to guarantee the integrity of the Turkish empire; but Prince Oortchakoff denied it, and claimed that it should be left to Russia to say, when the event arose, whether she would guarantee the integrity of the Turkish territory or not. That was the first differ ence ; and the question then came on what principle they were to proceed in carrying out the second portion of the third paint. that the preponderant* of Russia in the Black Sea should be pat an and to. It wee proposed that Russia should take the initiative, but Prince Oertchakoff declined, end desired that Turkey should take the initiative ; but Turkey very properly said she was bound to go with the allies by treaty, and she could not accept the proposal. The Russian plenipoteatiary then desired to refer to St Peters burg, and there was a delay of three weeks gained by that reference to St. Petersburg. He asked their lord ships to consider what the effect of that delay was on the oroceediogs before Sebastopol; for he thought that there was nothing so well calculated to damp the ardour of soldi. re before a formes as the knowledge that peace was being nested upon, and was likely to take place. Some fortnight afterwards, when it answered the purposes of Russia, communications from Prince Oortchakoff to St. Petersburg were almost as rapid as thought, and the some despatch might have been used before it Russia had been sincere. They, however, had the means of knowing that Prince Oortchakoff had the power to take the initiative, for Count Nesaelrode, in a summary of the proceeding., said " That the Emperor Nicholas, admitting the right of Turkey over the Straits, was prepared to admit the flags of all nations ice the Black Sea, provided that Russia was permitted to eater the ?deditemnua ; and that the Emperor Alexander had declared that the resolution and determination of the Emperor Nicholas should be strictly adhered to." Could anybody doubt that that resolution was carried by Prince Gortchakoff to Vienna? After a long de. lay, Prince Oortchekoff, on the 21st March, an nounced that be would be ready quill to enter upon negotiations, and whes the conferences were again opened, he stated explicitly that Russia would not take the initiative, and he made two very important decla rations; first, hs stated that Russia would not submit to any regulations which would infringe her sovereign rights in her own territory ; and he also said that that third proposition extended to Sebastopol, and therefore that no proposition would be listened to, to infringe her rights there. The next statement was, that she would not submit to any limit in the number of her vessels in the Black Sea. If neither the territory were to be affected, nor the number of ships litnioed, how was that consistent with the understanding that the Russian preponderance war to be pot an end to ? it *opened to him that at that time the conference was pro perly at an end. After a time, however, it was stated OD the part of the We vern Powers aad Turkey, that the proper mode of carrying out the second part of the third point, was by the limitation of the Russian flieet in the Black Sea. That war very much discussed sad considered, and it was said by Priam Oortchakoff that it was necessary for the balance of power in Europe and the safety of the Ottoman Empire that Russia should have a considerable fleet in the Black Sea, end he entered into a discussion to show that Russia was powerless for attack on Turkey in the Black See, and that all they had to do was to leave Turkey alone, and she would delepd herself. Audacity could not have gone further than the making of that statement. He had no intention to my a single word again* what had been dose b Lord John Renal, bet be sash "'pre= his deep regret that he, is oussrtfwith 11. Drosyn de Lhuys, had oontesanioated to the Austrian minister that we did appose to have thrown away an opportunity which we had of making peace with the concurrence of the representatives of all the powers. It was a matter of dun regret, but he mast say that he thought the government had acted tightly in rejecting the proposi tion. He lad, however, elperved that the proposition had been made in another place the ground of meking the strong charge against the governmut, that they were visit ing nations with all the calamities of war which might have been avoided by accepting the Austrian proposition. He was strongly of opinion that the government bad stud rightly in not accepting the proposition ; end for this reason that it was only proposing what had Been rejected in the strongest terms throughout the conference. The neat pro position was, that Turkey and Russia were to agree on some limitation of the naval tort in the Meek Sea. Now, ought the English government to have entered on that proposition ? It was the very proposition that Ramis had rejected in the strongest terms during the conferences, and bow could they ask to proceed on that proposition when the conference had been closed, and the very proposition had been tendered and refused by Russia? If they had began again upon that proposal, it would have bees easy for Ramie to play with Turkey as bog sash, pleased. (Hear, bear.) There was no room for despondeney—(hear, hear)—and if they desponded they never ought to have entered upon the war. So far from there being room for despondency, when they foiled that the Remiss flag wee not to be seen is her own waters, they must con siWer what would be the effect on other aatioes which had ben aceastomed to wonder the Black Sea as a Rennin lake. He gave Ruda credit for what she bad done in the defence of Sebastopol, but he thought that the attack of the Allies had been is point of gallantry more conspicuous than the defences. Thies observations brought him to the bill before the hoes*. His noble Mead (the Earl of Ellen borough) had stated the other evening that be should have pre a subsidy. He (Lord St. Leonard') was not emedy prepared to with that, bathe must say that if a guarantee was to begesse • loan, sad that loan a subsidy, he would rasher grant a subsidy at awe. (Hear. hear.) In the present ease, the. very first payment which this country bad to maks would convert the guarantee into a loan, and that would be ore step of the process. He thought too that it was • very impolitic measure to take as a special pledge from Turkey, the Egyptian tribute, end thus to I beeeme, as it were, the assignee of that tribute. Egypt would naturally ask u why we had put ourselves in such a treertion as ft-girded her after the facilities which she bed st.rded us for panic, through her territory. Great difli cultism would also arise from the hypothecation of the Smyrna customs. If throe custom's were not paid, would they take poeses•lon of the custom•bouse and pert' ,rm the odious office of Custom house oaken ? But if they did not, how would they enforce the bond ? (Hear, hear.) Another matter which be must noires was the extraordinary manner in which the words " conichstessaut et solidosionoonf" had bun translated by the Foreign.of9oe. He (Lord St. LeonarA) bad by him an steeliest old dictionary—that of Riebello, an acocot, who published it about 150 years egu— and Irmo the definition given by him there could not be a doubt fist the phrase meant "jointly and severally." Bat to the Boglieh Terri , a it was rendered by the word "jointly." In the other house an attempt had been made to cartel the error, but they had done it in a most ludicrous manner, for they had made the passage run that her Ms• jesty Wend herself jointly with the Emperor of the French, and severally—that was to say, jointly with the Emperor, sod severally by herself. The words ought to nave bees, that her Molest, bound herself jointly and severally with the Imperar. The Berl of CLARENDON—But you can't alter the easvention. _ Iwd.lT. LEON ARDS said that they bad altered it ,• and all** he was consandiag for was simply that it should be properly translated, and then it would all come right again, for he supposed that the convention bad two signed is Frame. fie Berl of CLARENDON—And in English. Lord BT. LEONARDS—But it was a wrong translation, and both could not stead. The other night the noble earl (Lord Clarendon) had said that the entering into this joint undertaking would not make a bit of difference in the lia bility of ths two countries; bat he (Lord St. Leonard!) supposed that if one of the contracting powers refused to pay its share, the ether, if solvent, and desirous of acting heneurably, would be obliged to pay every sbilliog. (Hear, hear.) A formal declaration had been recently nude on behalf of the two governments, by which it stunned that England was to advance the interest in case Tutkey made default, end to look to France to reimburse her for her share. That, he ventured to think, was an impolitic arrangement. As far as his own experience went, there was, with a sine, exception, no deb of which a man was so much disposed to chine plasma alone for which he was only a guaraatee. The single exception to which he had referred was a debt which a poison paid with still greater reluctance, a debt namely for which be bad made himself jointly liable which his co surety had discharged, and of which he now asked him to pay his share. (Hear.) When, however, he (Lord St. !eunuch') o:mimed his opinion that it would have been better not to have catered into the arrangement agreed upon, he did nut del the slightest doubt as to the perfect loyalty and good faith of our ally. (Cheers.) Another point to which he wished to call the attention of her Majesty's government was the stipulation that the Turkish government should remit the interest for each half year on certain specified days, namely, the 25th of June sod the Mho( Member. The effect of that would be to render it incumbent upon the English government themselves to find the money in the first instance. It would be much fairer if the Turkish government were required to send the money a few days earlier, so that there might be a fund oat of which the in t might be paid. (Hear, heir.) On the whole, he was inclined to agree with his noble friend (the Earl of Ellen borough), that it would have been better to great Turkey a !subsidy, which we could have applied at one own discretion. He would have seen that the money went to relit ve the military dif fi culties of our Ottoman ally, and he would thus have Attired a proper supervision over 'he Turkish force s in Asia Miser. If that had been done he had no doubt that they would have been able to strike a fatal blow at the operations of Russia in that quarter. (Hear.) The Earl of CLARENDON said that, although many of the observations of his noble and honied friend would have been better delivered on the second reading of the bill, his noble friend need hardly have made any apology, either for the state of the house or the period of the session, in addres•- ' ing to their lordebitte • speech of such very great importance that to which they had just listened (Hear, hear) His noble friend had with great el gone through the ' erotocols of the conferences at Vienna ; he had summed up the whole of the proceeding', and he had pronounced a judg ment which he (Lord Clarendun) thought would have gent elf. ct upon the country. (Hear, hear.) There was bat one portion of his noble friend's speech, on which he . it necessary So make any remarks. The noble lbrttaid that 1$ days had been lost in sanding to St. Peters. burg, and the noble lord seemed to think that that delay had been prejudicial to our military operations at Sebastopol. The same observation would have been equally applicable so the whole period during which the conferences were held. The ob. jectof th,ee conferences was undoubtedly to lead to pe .ce; and foreseeing that they might therefore have a certain effect in paralysiog the movements of both the French cud Eng lish commandeer, the two governments wrote out tt Lord Raglan and to 0 1 Cenroeert, stating that they had resolved to attend the confetenees because they thought it their ditty not to omit guy chum of arriving at a peaceful solution of the question; that they did so at the special invitation cf Austria; that they were hopeless that the conferences would sad in peace ; and that, therefore, they urged both the commanders not to relax in their efforts, but rather en increase them, buses, they felt certain that nothing would tend so much to bring about a successful issue to those cosferenees as a great military success. (Cheers.) He (the noble lord) had, therefore, not the least idea that the delay had bad any prejudicial effect upon our military operations in the Eon (Hear, hear.) The noble and learned lord had expressed his regret that his noble friend Lord John Russell should have lent himself to certain propositions which had been made by Russia, and should so fax have created a notion in Europe and more particular) y in Germany, that thou terms ought to have been emptied He thought that there had been a good deal of misrepreeentatien about his noble friend. The noble lord certainty went to Vienna—es all his conduct had shown—ardently desirous of pout if a safe and honourable peace could be concluded. Hav ing an idea when about to :eau Vienna slot further propositions were about to be made to him, he thought it was right that his colleagues should have an opportunity of considering some proposals that were different from those which be had It en instructed to make. He therefore undertook to ley those proposals before her Majesty's government; he did so, end they were rejseted ; but be did not think that the noble lord (Lord J. Russell) had shown too great a readiest, to adopt these pro positions. (Hear, hear.) With respect to the loan, he was very glad to hear that his noble friend did consider this war just and necessary; that it must be conducted with vigour and energy ; and that it would be short sighted and ill advised to refuse assistance to Turkey. He (Lord Claren don) was far from dissering from much that bad fallen from the noble earl the other night on the subject of suosidies. He was far from saying that if this war lasted long, we might sot find ourselves obliged to resort to that system, although it war one that was now very repugnant to this country. But we were not in a position to take that course now. Turkey came to us, and sad she was atle and willing to pay both the principal sad the interest of her proposed loan, bat that if England and France would go surety for her she wouid be able to obtain the money on better terms, and to that extent she would be better able to carry on the war. Were the Wed governments under those circumstances to lay, "Yon have neither the intention nor the means to pay, and we insist upon your accepting the money as • present ?" (Here, hear.) With respect to the objection to the bill suggested by the legal ingenuity of his noble friend, it seemed to Ida that, Wein et the ebleele etas eseventlea. it wee the 'homiest and met straightforward transutiou possible. It was considered in the Foreign-olio* that the words " conerisgentent if solideitvmmt,' meant the same thing, that was "jointly and conjointly ;" and they had therefore only used the ono word " jointly " in the transla tion. At the same time he would remind his noble friend that what the governments both of France and England would be bound by would be neither the treaty nor the act, but the terms of the bond itself. The LORD CHANCELLOR was not interested is say ing that the translation was a good one. He did not think it was. He considered however, that ea between nation and nation, whether a contrast was joist or several was ab solutely of no importance. His noble friend (Lord St. Leotards) started at that. Of course between individuals it was a matter of considerable importance whether a mu held &joint sad I or merely a joint bead, because in the one case he could sue the parties together, or bring an action against either of them. But in the cue of • con tract between two nation', they could take neither of them into a court of justice. They could only rely oa the at demanding that had been come to. After a few words in explanation from Lord St. Lao- NASD'S, _ _ . The Dill was passed through committee. Some other bills were silenced • slammed Their lordships adjourned at 8 o'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—MONDAY, Auo. 6. [Cootiased from yesterday's Ilzpress]. THE INDIAN FINANCIAL STATEMENT. Mr. BRIGHT gave notice that when the President of the Board of Control brought on his statement to-morrow (thin day) of the itheneiel position of India, he would move a re wisdom desisting it to be the opinion of the house that with a view to bring the annual statement of the finances of India more clearly before the house the President of the Board of Control should consider the practicability of making op the smooth to the 30th of October in each year, instead of the 30th of April, and laying it before parliament in the moo* of March, end farther that to afford the op portunity of giving to the subject the consideration its im portance required the annual statement should be made to the Howes W Commons at an early period in each session. In moving this resolution it was his intend= to make some observations in reference to the affairs of India. THE SPECIAL SERVICE FUND. • Lard J. RUSSELL ;iYed To — Mille • eta-teiiiint in rs. lettuce to some names that had beeu Inane m another place as to the appropriation of a sum of money from the Special Service Fund to the purposes of the it tyal Swiety. It had, he understood, be en said that'll& en applicati(n of any portion of the fund in question was • misapproptistion of a fund specially intended for charitable objerta. He could only state what wee his own Impression upon the sub ject, and that impression was that the fund was intended to be devoted to special services and the royal bounty, and the proposal he made was, that if sums of money were applied through the Royal Society to discoveries, inventims, and scientific purposes of that nature, it might fairly be con sidered as an appropriation for special services. Of course, after such application hid gone on for three or four years it might be right for the house no longer to confider it in the light of an arpronrismion fur special service, but then, as it appeared to him, it was still a special purpose for which the government might propose, and parliament very properly might vote a sum of money in t►e estimates. What ha wished to observe, therefore was, that this was not a misap propriation of aunty intended for charitable purposes, but an appropriation for a special and uselul purpose to which the fund might properly be spoiled, for it must not be forgotten that though science had en eye that never closed and • wing that never Sagged, it had not a purse that wee never empty. He did net consider the appropriation en improper one, and be hoped asum of money, not exceeding the amount which had been granted, would continue to be allowed from this or some other source fur the promotion of scientific objects. Mr. HEYWOOD oaiierved that the grant relericd to had been the spontaneous act of the Prime Minister at the time. The Royal Society had no wish to press for it as a charitable rant, bat as • c intribution in aid of science. Viscount PALMERSTON said it would be impossible to continue the grant from the source from which it had been for the moment supplied, although the purposes to which it had been devoted were well deserving encouragement by the public, and the money had been economically and judicionely expended. What he proposed was, fcr the present year to issue tne same amount out of the sum grant, d by the house for civil contingencies, and in future to include in the mis cellaneous estimates a vote of 1,0001. fcr this particular service. (Stamped Id. Additional.) [TWOPENC E. SOCIETY FOR IrIPROVING THE CONDITION OF THE LABOURING CLASSES. Yesterday, the Earl of Shaftesbury, accompanied by a number of gentleman, members of this scciety end other'', met by arrangement in Wild-court, Drurylane, to inspect the results of the renovation which that part of the metropolis has recently undergone under the auspices of the society The court in question, containing in all about fourteen houses, is situated at the northern side of Omit Wild-etreet, and in the immediate neighbourhood of Went Queen-street and Lincoln's-ion•fields. It is not more than five mioutee' wa:k from the Suited, and is in the centre of what was once not the least fashionable quarter of the me tropoli.i. Hard by, it is said, used to live some of the Mafia guished men and women who ere indetted for as.. part of their fame to the pencil of Sir Peter Lily. In November last, when the eoc:ety began to operate on this court, it literally teemed with people of all ages and of both Sege,. Two nun eked rectifies were huddled together it,ifesui teen houses; at a population of about 1,000, esclueive, of the idlers, thieves, and pickpockets who thronged the portages, stairs, &ed. land ings at night. The filthy end miserable condition of those dweli.nga was then almost beyond descrirtitn. Tbe base meet•, especially, emitted a most foul and offensive effluvia, partly owing to the long accumulation of animal and vegeta ble marten, thrown in through the area window, and through holes in the ground floors, and partly to the occn-ional overflew of badly constructed dry brick drain•, which passed beneath the floor in some instances mot more than three inches. The back yards were only from five feet sit inches to seven feet wide. The latrines were quite ezpoieed, and singularly offensive, and the water butts were so dilapidoted that they would scarcely hold water. The water supply was reanty and irregular. lu the corners of the yards were dustbins, which were emptied at long intervals. The front ground floor room of one of these houses had long been the rendez you, of a desperate gang of rung thieves. In one of the top rooms of another of the honors o a open wooden trough was actually femur running along the wall and con municstieg with a gutter on the parapet outside. This trough was ua•s.l as a sewer, and it emitted the most offen sive smell. In short, no adequate conception could be formed ef the stench and filth which choracterised every portion of each dwelling, from the buenceat story to the garret, ezcept by those who ezperierced them. The change in the locality, as seen yesterday, after the process of renovation and improvement which it hes under gone at the hands of the society, was alike surprising, and suggestive of a great practical lesson. A sum of 6,0401. was placed is the ham aof Lord Shaftesbury by a benevolent lady, whose name, we regret, we are not at liberty to men tion. to enab:e him to carry on his humane enterprise of im proving tits dwellings of the poor in the metropolis, and his lordship, in November last, commeiseed his orerations on the court which has just beer described. On its renova tion he has ever ended, out of the fund, about 1,7001, namely, in altering the interior arrangemeote of the houses, widening and rendering the staircases more easy, improving the drainage and water ' , apply, increasing the water closet ace commodation, and providing EMUS of ventilation where there was none bee re. Sumo idea may be form. d of the unutterable filth of the Aegean stable his lordship under took to cleanse when it is stated, on the authority or the secretary of the society, that 16 ceespools have been cleaned out; from 140 to 150 loads of night soil carted ems,:; and from33o to 3601oads of accumulated refuse, animal and vege table, dug out of the basements and conveyed away. la this last operation a solid mass of living ve rinin,three or four inches thick. Lail to be encountered and got rid of ; end at one time the process, became so loathsome that the lahouting men engaged in it struck work. Nuw the state of things is entirely changed, and those who saw Wild-court In November hut could barely fee .gniee it yesterday. There are now h 3 families occupying 92 rooms, which are in a condition of marvellous comfort compared witr. their former mate. Oi these 63 families, there are 22 who bad lived in the court before its renovation, end whose personal appear ance, at well as the strong feelings of gratitude they enter tain for this amelioration of their condition, s; esk volumes in favour of this benevolent wink. In a pecuniary point of view, the matter has been profitable, and in tbia rest ect it is w-rthy the attention of proprietors of booths in similar localities io the mi trouolis ; for since the change there has been an a iVdtt of more than 12 per cent. on tho old rentals, and that a ttwi•hstanding there has been a slight reduction in the rentals of the individual occupants. No one who yesterday accompauie•a Lord Shaftesbury over the houses could fell to be struck with the ainafort and eh gular clean liness alike of the occupants and the rooms they inhabit, and to notice the u:ter absence of anything like au offensive smell of any kind in soy part of the premises, and no hole or corner was left unvisited. The part of the metropolis on wh'cli the society intend next to operate is a notoriously offensive place called Tin ders-buildings, in Oray's-inn•lane. Of this locality erase conception may be formed, when it is stated on good math*. rity that one house in it in one year coat:Awed no fewer than twenty cases to the Fever Hospital. FIRE, AND LOSS OF THREE LIVES. A moet d.stre=sitig event has occurred at Altrin cham, in Cheehire, a house having been completely destroyed by fire, and thre., of tte inmates burnt to death. The heuee lis a public-house, called the Orange Tree, in Oeorgee street, near the Bowdon Railway Statism, and is kept by Samuel Cooper On Sunday night be and hie family retired to rest about half-past 11 o'clock, believing that all was eel, on the premises. Soon after one o'clock on Mondoy mero ing a watchman on duty discovered Homes iesuinee from the back windows cf the house, and immediately gem an alarm, but the fire had already attained to such power that it 'vented to have been burning for some lime unperceived. The family were roused only by the alarm green by the watchmen, and Mr. Cooper jumped out of bed and called, from the window of a front room where Le and his wet, and children were sleeping, for a ladder. From some est* or other a ladder could not be found immediately by any one in the street, and Mr. Cooper jt.mped from the bedroom window (on the second story) into the street, ran to the hack of the Louse and got a ladder, which he brought to the front. By this means he rescued his wife and five children. Two tempt women were also saved, one of them escaping Ly jumping into the street as her mister had done. Two of the althea were still missing, and the father, who was in a state har derieg on distraction at Lis loan, was in painful uncertainty as to their fate for some hours. Some peewee appear to have been coder the impression that they had seen the children serried away side, and endeavoured to soothe their father by this assurance, but about half-pact four o'clock, After the fire had been got under, the bodies of both were found in the hoar parlour, at the back of the house, where they bad apparently fallen in along with the floor of the moot above. Thomas Crag!, a *event man, aged 17 or 18, was oleo found burnt to death in the room over the bar. The names of ,he two deceased children were William and Nathaniel Howard, the first being ten or eleven years old, and the other shout two years younger. The eldest eon, Jahn, aged 17 (who is employed in Mean. S. and F. Watt's warehouse, at Man chester) was found lying senseless on the kitchen hearth stone, and although be has escaped with his life, it is hared he is seriously Injured. He says that he met the two children who have been burnt to death in one of the upper back rooms, where they had run in their fright, and he carried them to the top of the stairs, but was unable to take them further, the vaircase being one mass of flame. He dashed through himself, and remembers noling further after be reached the eyeteeth floor. A fire*ogiae was brought by the police soon after the fire was discovered, end some time afterwards another ; but their assistance was impeded by a scarcity of water at first, and by the time a good sup sly could be cbteitied from the cistern and e.aewbere, the flames bad ueread to such en ex • tent that the fled: uction of the house where it originated seemed inevitable, and all efforts were therefore directed to prevent the fire attacking the two adjoining houses. One of these is a beerbouse, and has a thatched roof, but both this and the house adjoining Cooper's, on the other side, were happily saved without any Injury, except a little ex ternally at the gableeeeds. The flames were nearly extin guished by about 4 o'clock, but Cooper's house is com pletely gutted, the roof—which was slated—and the floor of the attio end of the wood story having all fallen istieivfmg only the charred beams which had supported them •, ana the whole of the furniture was destroyed' ; The house, . which was Cocper's own property, appears• to beep I ) ,, ta formerly two separate dwellings, now enteed by , nterier communications, as there are two entrance* to the front; but all is destroyed. It wee insured for 60 • hut this will probably ant cover half the loss of property. Please of the , fire is at present • mystery, and, although t rrepe*Serioes., • A ' teejectures and rumours about it, the only 41f(Sifiie evldeaos appears to be that it otiginated in the h enget lour at the e• • —.. back of the boas*. It is said that one of tftVg a hue .... left Darning as usual, and it is possible that en r A . may lave done the rest. THE AFFAIRS OF ITALY. Lard J. RUSSELL said that he was desirous of making some observations in reference to the prrent state of Itsly' and the occupation of the Papal states by foreign troop, and as he supposed the third reading of the Consolidated Fund Bill would afford him the opportunity, he would give notice that he would do so when that bill was brought on toemeasow (this day). (Hear ) CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY BILL. In answer to a question from Mr. WALPOLE* Lord PALMEItSTON stated that as this bill was likely to occasion considerable discussion, he feared it would bill necessary to withdraw it, owing to the lateness of the sess'on. The Accidents on Railways Dill Hs right bun. friend (Mr. &untie) would endeavour to pass. CHARITABLE TRUSTS BILL. The ATTORNEY GENERAL, — in moving that the house resolve itself into committee to consider the clauses, said as the understanding was that the discussion should be taken at this stage, he would state shortly the leading prin eples sod provistuus of the measure. Its chief abject, Its stated, was to enable properties devoted to cbar.t.blo pur poses not exceeding Mll in I value to be settled and administered without revolving the espensive intery -talon of Chancery. With this object certain fat her powers were to be given to the esistiog board of Charity Commissioner., by whom the requisite functions would, he contended, he safely and economic:olly exereiud. Mr. KNIGHT rose to move that the house go into eom mittes on the bill that day time months, and the discussion was continued for some time. Ultimately, the The ATTORNEY GENERAL, in reply, said he consi dered the whole ball so important that he did not feel justi fied in givi►g up any portion of it until he bad ascertained what the feelings of the house were. He had not espected the bill would love met with so much opposition, as it had been approved of by all the law lord.. It was abeo lately necessary that certain portions of the bill relating to the continuance of the third commissioner, the appoint ment of inspectors, and other matters of detail, should be. come law immediately. If bon. gentlemen were determined to fight the hill clause by chewer, he of course had no Choice but to sacrifice a portion to secure the rest. lie left the dank entirely in the bands of the boost. Mr. WIORAM wished it to be clearly understeld what portions of the hill were to be abandoned. He objected to the appointment of local inspector., to the 12th clause giv ing power to the commissioners to proceed es parte, and to the power of r. movie g schoolmasters. Lord PALMERSION thought that, as they had agreed to the priocip:e, it would be better to postpone the discus sion of the details until they got into committee. It was if not a waste at least a misapplication of time to discuss the clauses of the bill on the motion that the Speaker leave the chair. M►. BARROW felt so strongly this oblertions to discus sing a bill of ouch importasee at this period et the ression, that he must espress a hope the hon. member would di►ide the house. The amendment was then negatived without a div:alow and the house west into cummittee. - _ The di.cussion of the clauses of the measure occupied some hours. The House afterwards resumed, and after disposing of the remaining business on the paper, adjourned at 8 minutes past 3. THE DARLINGTON POISONING CASE. DARLINGTON, MONDAY Armixoox. Mr. Wooler was brought before the county magic trues to-day fur further examination, charged with poison log his wife. Mr. Davison, of the Ng,there Circuit, appeared for the friends of the deceased ; Mr. H. !Marshall defended. The body wee exhumed on Saturday, and the hear•, lung., and part of the liver bay, been Dent t Dr. Taylor, analytical chemist at Guy's Hospital. Several of the wit nesses who were ermined at the inquest gave evident.. Dr. Ricaardson, of Newcastle, who made an analysis of a portion of the liver of deemed. sad some eeeee tions that b■d been tent to him, stated that he had detected arsenic in Sm. Kr. Fothergill, surgeon, of whom Mr. Waster had hor row'd a syringe, stated that upon its being returned to him, after Mrs. Woolet's death, it wu stopped up, and upon tba present inquiry taking place to bad tested what he took out of it, and beyond all doubt diacovcred that it contained arsenic. A servant girl, a mnst unwilling within., was examined at great length, and proved that Mr. Wooler bad been in the habit of giving his wife medicine, and that she genc rally was rick after taking it. The inquiry has been adjourned until Sa•nrdey, when Profenor Christina and Dr. Taylor will be examintd. There is great excitement in the town. THE LA TB SUICIDE OF A GIRL IN VICTORIA PARK. Yesterday Mr. Raker, the coroner, resomed the inquest at the Bosford Arms ravens, 011 Ford-road, Batanalearseo, respecting the death of Victoria Bacon, aged 14 sears, who committed suicide in the ornamental water of Victoria park, through the slipped illtreattneat of her mistress, a Mrs. Clewett, of No. 14, Wellington-street, Bethnal-green. In addition to the evidence given upon the former occa sion, several witnesses deposed to the continuous ill-treat ment which the deceased had experienced from her mistress. The Cot id, as the deceased had died from drowning, and the inquiry was only as to the cause of death, it was mien to prolong the investigation. If the deceased bad been ill-treated by any one, she was not justified in drowning herself; she ought to have complained to a magis trate. The cue in law would amount to one of " found dead." _ _ . The jury, after being locked up for an hoar, returned the following verdict :—. That the deceased, Victoria BMW, was found dead in the ornamental water of Victoris•park, but how or by what means she c.me by her death there is no evidence to show. The jury, however, cannot separate without ezprasiog their strong disapprobation at the manner in which the deceased was treated by her mistress (Mrs. Clewett) ; and that the protracted ill•usage she experienced in her service deserves severe censure." THE ROCHDALE MunnEn.—A second prisoner has been made on suspicion of committing the recent murder at Rochdale, bat Christopher Martin, the person first appro. bonded, ie still in custody. The second prisoner is Jonathan Heywood, a boiler maker, who had been living with the deceased at Manchester. He was taken at a secluded little village called Coupe, only a few miles from Rochdale, where he had been making hay. He bad previously bad • job at haymaking on • farm at Whitworth. The only cir cumstances of • ►uspicious character at present against him I are, that he was from home all the night of the murder, and returned soon after the murderer is known to have left the public-house ; that he left Rochdale the same morning we go end wilt haymaking. end obtained employment at Whitworth in the name of James Meadoweroft, leaving his employ on the Thursday following, after hearing an Mailman read as aeco•nt of the murder from • newspaper; end that he lift Whitworth without drawing tie last day', wages. To his fellow workmen at Whitworth he assumed the name of James Brierley. At Coupe be gave his seal name. The I MOM stands adjourned to Thursday. THE LONG VACATION.—The long vacation will com mence on Friday and terminate on the 21th October.
