The motion for the adjournment of the house was then withdrawn. On the order for going into committee of supply, Mr. LINDSAY moved, that in the opinion of this house the states which have seceded from the Union of the Re public of the United States have so long maintained them selves under a separate and established government, and have given such proof of their determination and ability to support their independence, that the propriety of offering mediation, with the view of terminating hostilities between the contending parties, is worthy of the serious and imme diate attention of her Majesty's Government. The hon. member argued that it was for the interest of this country, both politically and commercially, that the Northern and Southern States should be separated. Politically, it would be for our advantage that the growing power of the United States should be checked ; and commercially so, because the Southern Confederacy were ready to adopt a free-trade policy, and to enter into relations with us for a mutual ex change of produce and manufactures. He believed that the Emperor of the French was quite prepared to offer his mediation ; and in was unaccountable that, up to this mo ment, her Majesty's Government had taken no steps to interfere. One thing was clear. It was, that the South could not be conquered. It was still more clear that it could not be brought back into the Union. He held, therefore, that the time had arrived when the South ought to be received into the family of nations. Mr. TAYLOR contended that the present was not an opportune moment for raising this discussion, and observed that as Providence fought on the side of strong battalions, it was not likely that the 20 ,000,000 of the North would consent to be put down by the 3,000,000 of the South, en cumbered with 4,000,000 of slaves. He believed that dis cussion would only add to the irritation and bitterness which were already felt in the United States towards this country, and which were to a certain extent justified by the language used by an influential portion of the press of Eng land. He objected to Mr. Lindsay's motion that the word " mediation" really meant the recognition of the South,and that intervention was nothing more than a longer word for war with the United States. The recognition of the South would in short be a blot upon the anti-slavery flag of this country. Lord V. TEMPEST believed that the re-establishment of the American Union would do more to perpetuate slavery than any other measure that could be adopted ; and that separation would be the surest means of getting rid of the "peculiar institution" as it is termed. Mr. W. FORSTEIt, considering that the motion, as well as the speeches by which it had been supported, was not likely to stay the war, but rather to aggravate and pro long the conflict, and probably drag this country into it, met the question with an unqualified negative. He trusted, therefore, that Government, Parliament, and the country would maintain the policy of entire non-intervention. The motion suggested an offer of mediation ; but what was the sea of mediation it meant ? If friendly mediation were the only thing it aimed at in the present state of the relations between America and this country, the less that was pub licly said about it here the better. The bone of contention was this. The men of the South were fighting to snake themselves an independent nation, and the Federalists were fighting to prevent them and to preserve the Union. How, then, was peace possible ? Either by the South on some condi tionof returning to the Union, or the North allowing them to quit it. In this position of things any Government that stepped in between two such powerful foes, both sanguine of success, and neither willing to submit to dictation, should carefully avoid expressing any opinion upon the question in dispute. Nevertheless, although the motion expressed an opinion in favour of the South, and was accompanied with a threat to the North, the hon. mover expected the latter to listen to an offer of mediation. Surely it would be in vain to entertain the hope, and it was going the very worst possible way to effect such an object. He thanked the Go vernment for having preserved the country, under great temptation and some provocation, from a very heavy re sponsibility—a responsibility that could only be avoided by perseverance in the policy of non-intervention. Mr. WHITESIDE granted that the question before the house was a delicate and difficult one, but it did not there fore follow that the House of Commons was not to express an opinion upon it. He argued that the motion turned upon matters of fact, and that considering the incompati bility of temper and opposition of interests, desires, and passions between the North and the South, it was not only not surprising that there was secession now but that there had not been secession long ago. If the cause of quarrel were so deeply rooted, what chance was there of the North and South becoming reconciled ? The facts asserted in the resolution were, that the States which had seceded from the American Republic had so long maintained themselves under a separate and established Government, and given such proof of their determination and ability to support their independence, that the propriety of offering me diation with the view of terminating hostilities between the contending parties was worthy of the serials and imme diate attention of the Government. He understood, then, that mediation with a view to recognition, was the policy put forward in the resolution, and that policy could only be founded upon a belief in the facts therein stated, These facts were undisputed and indisputable, and he contended from historical precedent, fortified by the opinions of the most eminent jurists, that the recog nition of a state in the position of the Southern Confederacy was perfectly compatible with neutrality, and that no power had ever asserted that doctrine more earnestly and empha tically than the United States themselves. Mr. GREGORY reminded the house of Earl Russell's prophecy that the war would be ended by separation in three months, and regretted that the noble lord had not taken the advice of the Premier, that public men should only pro phesy after the event. He attributed the prophecy to the promises of Mr. Thurlow Weed. The North had always promised to crush the rebellion in 90 days. While they supposed that these was a Union party in the South they might hope to do so. But no one now believed in the existence of such a party, and the war was now on the Northern part merely a war of vengeance. Humanity, on behalf of our own people, as well as on behalf of the South, demanded our utmost efforts to check the war. He gave some important facts, showing the activity with which the North had prosecuted the slave trade, and affirmed that public opinion in the South was strongly adverse to that trade on grounds both of humanity and of personal interest and political expediency. The reconstruction of the Union, therefore, would tend to the confirmation of slavery. He believed that if this country acted in conjunction with other powers in offering mediation, nothing would be heard of war with the United States, and he was satisfied that if some such course was not adopted the present conflict would last for an indefinite peri o d, Mr. S. FITZGERALD moved the adjournment of the debate. Lord PALMERSTON did not think that postponement would be attended with any beneficial result, and added the expression of his regret that Mr. Lindsay should have thought it to be his duty to bring the subject under discus sion in the existing state of circumstances. There was not a man in the country who did not desire that the conflict should terminate, but he doubted if that object could be promoted by a debate such as they had had that night. He hoped the house would not agree to the motion, but leave the matter to be dealt with by the Government, content as the country was with the manner in which it h ad hitherto b e en conducted. He did not dispute that , if England thought right to do so, it would be perfectly justified in acknowledging the independence of the Southern States, provided only that that independence had been firmly and permanently established ; he admitted also that the fact of such acknowledgment would be no just cause of war on the part of the Northern States as against this country. But up to the present moment, whatever opinion might be entertained of the spirit and determination of the South to fight to the very last for the assertion of their independence. practically the contest had not yet assumed such a charac ter as would justify the assumption that the independence was permanently settled. He knew well the extent to which our own population was suffering from the continu ance of the civil war ; but any attempt to put an end to it by violent interference would only produce still greater evil and suffering. The Government would be too happy, if any opportunity presented itself that afforded a reasonable pro spect of any effort of theirs leading to the re-establishment of peace ; but he thought the house had b e tt er leave them to judge of the occasions as they arose and the opportunities as they presented themselves.. Mr. S. FITZGERALD said that this country would be failing in its du t y to its own Population if it did not come forward and by means of peaceful mediation en deavour to put an end to this odious contest. The motion meant that the Government should, in concert with our allies, express to the United States their conviction that it was impossible there could be any other issue to the war than the separation of the North from the South, and that they should enforce that convictio n not by arms but by the weight of reason and argument, and then offer their mediation with a view to effecting an amicable arrangement of the quarrel. If such an offer were made to the United States in a friendly and respectable tone, I, —e was sure it would produce great and useful results. He so entirely agreed with the motion of Mr. Lindsay that, if the hon. member went to a division he should give him his support. Mr. HOPWOOD a ppealed to the G overnme nt in the name of justice and humanity to take action in the matter. Mr. LINDSAY' then expressed himself satisfied with the di s cussion so far as_ it had gone, and amid loud cries of N 0 ,,, consen t e d to w ithdraw his motion. The motion was withchawn accordingly, and the house went into committee of supply pro f arina. Commis - The Parochial Assessments Bill and Charity Com sinners Jurisdiction Bill were respectiv e l y rea d a third t ime and passed. a lso forwarded a stage, a f ter which the Other bills were house adjourned, BANKERS—The Imperial Bank, Lothbury. This Company is formed for fusing the interests of Smack Owners of the Thames into a joint-stock enterprise. Fifty vessels—whose owners enter the company—will be purchased, and the leading smack owner will take the management. As many thousand tons of ice are consumed in packing the fish, the directors are in treaty for the pur chase or a small island —including the house property thereon —off the coast of Denmark, where ice can be prepared cheaper than in England, and stored in icehouses for the use of the vessels, and for sale to the public. This island has a harbour large enough for sheltering vessels drawing twelve feet of water, and there is abundance of cod fish, lobsters, and oysters around it. If the collection of offal for manure will pay, the Company will also collect it at their depot. For form of application for shares apply to the Secretary, (pro tem.), L. Olrick, 27, Leadenhall-street. IMPERIAL PARLIAMEN T HOUSE OF LORDS—YESTERDAY. The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at five o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The following bills were read a third time and passed : Corbet's Estate West Cheshire Railway Eastern Counties Railway (Epping lines) —and West Shropshire mineral Railway. COLONIAL FORTIFICATIONS. The Earl of CARNARVON drew the attention of their lordships to certain charges connected with Colonial fortifications and defence, with the object of moving for copies of correspondence between her Majesty's Govern ment and the Governor-General of Canada in reference to the Militia Bill proposed and passed inthe Canadian Parliament. The noble earl having referred to the civil colonial expen diture which in the last year amounted to £937,000, pro ceeded to notice the circumstances connected with the annexation of Lagos which, he said, took place in defiance of the remonstrances of the native chiefs. The sum expended for civil service 'in the colonies bore no parallel to the sums required for colonial fortifica tions ; and in looking over the Army Estimates he found that money was to be taken for strengthening and improv ing Malta, Gibraltar, Bermuda, the lonian Islands, the Mauritius, Jamaica, St. Helena, Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick, With respect to the two first mentioned places, it was absolutely necessary that they should be kept in the most efficient state, yet that was far from being their present condition, notwithstanding the money that had been laid out upon them. With respect to Bermuda, it was principally of importance as a lookout station for the American coast, and he should be glad if that idea could be carried out, but without great improvements, he was afraid its present condition rendered it far from useful. It was well known that the Mauritius required at least a gar rison of 4,000 or 5,000 men for its security, and he should like to know whether, in the event if a war should unfortunately arise, the Government would be able to allow so large a force to remain isolated at the Mauritius. Already £140,000 had been expended on the place, about £15,000 was in process of being laid out, and he supposed before the plans were completed about £50,000 more would be required. The Duke of NEWCASTLE denied that there had been any increase of late in imperial expenditure for colonial pur poses of any kind, and expressed his regret at the course taken by the Canadian Parliament with respect to the militia. The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH concurred in this opi nion of the noble duke's, and observed that, however the war in America might terminate, he believed that Canada would be attacked by the United States. Some observations from the Earl of Powrs and Lord STRATFORD DE REDCLIFFE brought the discussion to a close, and the motion was agreed to. The Merchant Shipping Act Amendment Bill, the Sum mary Jurisdiction (Ireland) Bill, the Election for Counties (Ireland) Bill, the Copyright Works of Art Bill, and the Gunpowder Act Amendment Bill, were severally read a third time and passed. The Parochial Buildings (Scotland) Bill was read a second time. Their lordships then adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS—YESTERDAY. The SPEAKER took the chair at 20 minutes past 12 o'clock, 40 members not having been in attendance before. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Lords amendments to the following bills were agreed to, and the bills were ordered for third reading. The fol lowing bills were read a third time and passed :—Carnar vonshire Railway; Charing-cross Railway (City Terminus Bridge) ; and Pulteney Harbour. LUNATICS LAW AMENDMENT BILL. The house went into committee on this bill, resuming at dense 30, which was agreed to. Clauses 31, 32, and 33 were also agreed to. On clause 34, Mr. BUTT moved the following :—" And the guardians of every union aid of every parish under a board of guar dians, and the overseers of every parish not in a union nor under a board of guardians, shall visit once at the least in each half-year all asylums, hospitals, and licensed houses in which there are any pauper lunatics chargeable to such union or parish, and shall inquire as to the dietary accom modation and treatment of such lunatics, and whether any of such pauper lunatics appear in a fit state to be discharged and shall 'enter in the visitors' book such observations as they may think fit to make respecting the condition and treatment of such lunatics, and the book containing the ob servations made in pursuance of this section by the visiting guardians or overseers shall be laid before the commissioner or commissioners and visitors on his or their next visit." Sir G. Grey, Mr. Henley, and Mr. Barrow opposed the bill on the ground that compulsory visitation instead of voluntary visitation would not only entail considerable ex pense, but would be attended with injury to the pauper lunatics. Mr. HIBBERT supported the amendment which was in operation in Lancashire, where it was found to work very satisfactorily. The amendment was negatived, and the clause was agreed to, as were the remaining clauses. Mr. HENLEY moved the addition of the clause em powering the visitors and the guardians of any union within the district for which the asylum has been pro vided to make arrangements, subject to the approval of the Lunatic Commissioners and the President of the Poor Law Board, for the reception and care of a limited number of lunatics in the workhouse of any particular union. The clause was agreed to and read a second time. Some other clauses were added to the bill, and the house resumed. WEIGHTS AND MEASURES (IRELAND) ACT (1860) AMENDMENT BILL. This bill went through committee without discussion. DRAINAGE (IRELAND) BILL. The house went into committee on this bill, resuming at clause 15. The clauses to 63 inclusive were agreed to. On clause 64, Sir H. BRUCE objected to the clause as charging on the county rates the cost of the construction of works for the purpose of draining the land of private proprietors, and he moved its omission. After a long discussion the clause was negatived on the understanding that Colonel French should bring up an amended clause on the report. Col. VANDELEUR moved the rejection of clause 67, which provides that millowners should pay for any addi tional water they may receive on account of these works. The committee divided — For the clause Against it l6 Majority —l2 The clause was agreed to. All the remaining clauses were agreed to, on the suggestion that other clauses providing for appeals in cer tain cases should be added, Mr. SCULLY addressed the committee until 4 o'clock, when the sitting was suspended. At 6 o'clock the house resumed. "--~ =~ ~ ~~ ~~ ~ ~ ,= rte. ..,..' ~,) / PRICE..... -..4d. STAMPED ....sd. Rapture, May-be, St. Vitus, Little Nelly, Pet Lamb filly, and Lupin.

The contest amongst gentlemen amateurs for the prizes given annually by Mr. C. Clifford took place yesterday. There were six competitors, in three heats, with the follow ing results : 7'`D THE CIVIL WAR IN AMERICA. Mr. A. EGERTON inquired whether the Government had received any confirmation of the rumoured capture of Gen. M'Clellan and his army by the Confederate forces. Mr. LAYARD replied that no despatches to that effect had reached the Foreign-office. Mr. CLAY moved the adjournment of the house, for the purpose of appealing to Mr. Lindsay to postpone for the present the motion of which he had given notice in favour of tendering the mediation of this country in the conflict now raging between the United States and the Confederate States of America. Re admitted that at the right time a discussion upon the subject might be productive of great good, but unless the time was well chosen, and he thought it was not in this instance, considerable mischief might re sult. The ground on which he made this appeal was the currency of a rumour with regard to the success of the Con federates, which, though it required confirmation, might not in the opinion of many persons be far from the truth. Mr. J. EWART, in seconding the motion, also earnestly entreated Mr. Lindsay not to proceed with the discussion then. Mr. LINDSAY replied that he had postponed the motion from tim e to time in deference to the wi s h es o f h on . mem bers ; and, thi nking that the i n formation already before the house was suffi c i ent to ena bl e it to deal with the q uestion. and, seeing the e x t ent to w hi c h the interests of this country were affected by the con ti nuan ce of the war, and the fact that the session was f as t approa ching a close, he declined acc e ding to the reque s t. At the instance of Mr. MONSELL, Lord C. PAGET entered into some further explanations relative to the correspondence betweeen Captain Cowper Coles and the Board of Admiralty, and from which it, FIRST HEAT. Messrs. H. N. 4 ustance „ C.

Yesterday Mr. Carter, the coroner for Surrey, and a jury held a lengthened inquiry at the Park Tavern, Merton-road, Wandsworth, on the body of a newly born male infant. Mr. Otto Goldschmidt stated that he resided at Argyll Lodge, Wandsworth-common. On Monday morning, in consequence of a communication from his wife, he accompanied her to a servant's bed room, where he found his kitehenmaid Susan lying in bed ill. He told her that he had sent for a doc tor, notwithstanding that she had declined to have any medical assistance. He accused her with having given birth to a child, and she afterwards admitted that she had, and that it cried. She pointed to a box in the room, and offered him a bunch of keys to open it. He refused to unlock the box, and re quested her to give him the key. She took the key off the bunch and handed it to him, and he removed the box to his study. On the arrival of Dr. Willis the box was opened, and the dead body of a male infant was found inside, wrapped in an article of dress. Eliza Emma Chapman said she was housemaid in Mr. Goldschmidt's service. There were eight servants in the establishment. Susan Arter, the kit chen maid, slept in the same room with her, but in another bed. Susan Arter had been in Mr. Gold schmidt's employ about nine months. About four o'clock on Monday morning last witness was awoke b a n y d h s e a a w r i n s g a s a a n A noise rte i r n s it her a b e ar g p o o o n m .a hair l b o y o k t e h d, e window, in her night dress, in a fainting state. She got out of bed and bathed her temples with water. When she reco veredtea, Susan a n s c h aa e told eeftdhok h ewe e r n.rn downstairs thAaai At eight s es dressed, gr e he had s a eo d a, been aonc ka downstairs, where she , was_ t n very ill. Witness ie ma d e thes .. t,oh eb e dht morningril alegca eared very ill, she persuaded her to 2P i Pe n . The witness added that she found appearances in a closet on the ground-floor., g o that Susan had been there . avinv sehe suspicionr°tlva ii certain g a t the time, nor did she erScehi e v e had in the n th anythinga ago she uhnauds suspicions, p oions , a n t a d k t e o n l d s place. asan t Sb h eod a m t reo s o h nim e on was much stouter than when she entered the service. The observation arose from her com plaining of the hard work, and witness remarked that she got stout over it. Inspector Ayre, of the V division, said he saw Mr. Goldschmidt at the station on Tuesday, and he accompanied him to his house. He searched Susan Arter's boxes, but could not find anything for a baby. On Thursday he removed her under a medi cal certificate, to the infirmary of the Wandsworth and Clapham Union, where she still remained. Dr. Willes, of Barnes, gave evidence tending to show that death had been caused by violence. This being all the evidence, the coroner summed up the case, after which the jury consulted, and re turned a verdict of " Wilful Murder" against Susan Arter, and the witnesses were bound over to prose cute at the assizes.
