CUBITT, Mayor.--A COMMON COUNCIL, holden in the Chamber of the Guildhall of the City of London, on Thursday, the 28th day of June, 1882, Resolved unanimously,—That, by the lamented decease of the Right - Honourable the Earl Caaninf, late Governor- General of India, this Court is prevented from carrying into effect its unanimous resolution of presenting the freedom of this City to that distinguished nobleman, and therefore avails itself of the earliest opportunity of recording its deep sense of the loss which the country has sustained by the premature death of that able statesman, whose wise administration of the government of India at a period of great peril, and sub sequent measures of just and enlightened policy, conciliated the affections and advanced the general interests and pros perity of all classes of the population of that vast and im portant possession of the British Crown ; and that, in lasting* recognition by this Corporation of his eminent services a bust of his lordship be executed, at an expense not exceeding- two hundred guineas, and pla ce d w i t h in the Guildhall. - We fear that if we were to dilate too much on the superior attractions of a half-crown day at the Exhibition, it would soon lose the distinctive cha racter which now makes it so pleasant, On a half crown day there is room for everyone, a pleasant and an exceedingly select interior temperature, company. What is quite as good it is more remu nerative to the Commissioners than the best ehil ling day we have had yet. Yesterday there were more than 20,000 paid for admission, and the num ber of private equipages in Exhibition-road was enormous. Prince Napoleon v isited the building early, end passed a good deal of time in the French:. Court, conversing familiarly with Xi. Durene and others of the principal exhibitors. Ills Imperial Highness was received by Earl Granville, who eou-. . ducted his Imperial Fighucss round the building. As usual the visit was paid before the a4ani6sion the public. The Grand Ducal family of licssi;in eluding Prince Louis, were also amongst the visi tors, and were received and escorted round the courts by Sir Wentworth Diike. A good deal of conversation might be heard during the day re specting the announced reduction in the price of seas on tickets, the general impression being that it savoured a good deal of breach of faith to the original purchasers. The comparative thinness of the attendance seemed to have had a most salutary effect on the deportment of the cabmen and omnibus conductors. There was no difficulty whatever in getting into either the one or the other, from which it may be inferred that for shilling days about double the present amount of vehicular accommodation would make matters comfortable. The omnibus company urge that their present supply is girlie equal to the demand, as it could not be expected they could double their force for one or two journeys in the evening. However, they have made two arrange ments recently which will tend very much to increse the facility of getting away for the public. One is, which now make to make their Blackwell 'buse s, Piccadilly their terminus, stretch on to the Exhibi tion ; the other is to establish a new line at the Kensington end of Exhibition-road, an excellent starting point, but which has hitherto been over looked. Now that a door has been opened at the far end of the eastern annex this new line will be found very useful. About 4 o'clock there was considerable amuse ment caused in the Canadian Courts by one of the attendants who is numbered 4. This man who pos sesses a gravity strange to see, and a command over his facial muscles which would make his fortune on the stage, stationed himself on one of the raised platforms and struck an easy attitude. Espied by a. few ladies, who believed him to be a wax figure, there was soon a crowd gathered, and speculation commenced as to whether the figure was that of a man or was the handiwork of the Messrs. Tusse.ud. For 15 minutes did he stan d making, at intervals of a minute, what volunteers and recruits know AS a half-face. He was j eered at, laughed at, his clothes pulled, but yet he neither winked, smiled, nor otherwise showed that he was alive. The per formance was wonderful. People began remarking that the wax-work was beyond conception an ex cel ent imitation; even this did not upset his gra vity. At length one of the spectators more auda cious than his neighbours moved a wheel against which the figure rested. This was too much—the facts became manifest ; and if No. 4 attendant in the Colonial Department did not rejoice during the remainder of the day in all kinds of good cheer it was not for lack of invitations. More than one complaint has been made to us by exhibitors of the too strict surveillance of certain of the superintendents. The latter are of course bound to see that no sales take place in violation of the rules of the Exhibition, but they might do their spiriting gently, and not throw the whole force of inspection on one or two individuals. Every one knows that sales to a very large amount are made in rue , exhibitor has told ourselves that he has sold his exhibits six times over, the only difference being that they take orders for duplicates instead of deli vering the article exhibited: We should advise any exhibitor who believea he is treated with undue severity to bring the matter at once before the com missioners, when we are sure that everything ap proaching to petty tyranny or individual annoy ance will be at once put an end to. The country visitors are commencing their excursions to town, amongst others a party of 800 from Ampthill have contracted for a large supply of omnibuses for Wednesday next.

Harvey, in charge of one of the ship's boats, on the Bth of September, at Port Wangekee, in the north of Pecuba Eland. She was fitted for the slave trade, had on board a crew of twenty Sevoodi Arabs, and a quantity of slave food, but no papers or colours. The dhow, which was of the burden of 200 tons, was destroyed soon after her capture. Dhow No. 7 was taken off INlezambu on the 14th September. She was fitted for the slave trade, had a quantity of slave food on board, and was of the burden of 66 tons. Being unfit for a voyage to the port of adjudication, she was destroyed. Dhows Nos. 8,9, 10, and 11, were all seized on the 16th of September. The circumstances attend ing their capture are full of adventure. On the day in question,the Gorgon's pinnace, under the command of Lieutenant Ross, and the whale-boat, under the command of Acting Sub-Lieutenant Price, were cruising off Melinda, in pursuance of Comman der Wilson's orders. About 3 p.m., they stood into I Melinda anchorage for water, when they saw three dhows at anchor in the roadstead, and a small dhow shoving off from the shore, with 40 or 50 men — Northern Arabs—armed with muskets, and appa rently standing for the dhows at anchor. The two boats proceeded to intercept the dhow with the armed men,wlj_erga_pi onthe crews of theotherdhows jumped overboard, and swam on shore. As the boats stood towards the smaller dhow, the Arabs in her commenced to fire upon them, and the fire was immediately returned with musketry, and the howitzer of the . pinnace, loaded with canister and grape. The combat lasted for some little time, but after several of the Arabs had been killed and wounded, the remainder jumped overboard and escaped to the shore. All four dhows were then searched, under a heavy fire from the shore, and they were found to be fitted for the slave trade, and to have neither papers nor colours. In the smallest dhow a negro was found, who stated that the three larger dhows had 150 slaves, who were to have re mained on shore while the vessels were cleaned and watered, and after reshipping the slaves and com pleting their complement, the dhows were to have proceeded on their voyage to the Persian Gulf. The vessels were all destroyed. The negro found on board the smaller dhow was, at his own earnest request, permitted to return to the shore, the officers in command concluding from his statement that he was a resident at the place. The capture of dhows No. 12 and 13 was effected on the 29th of August. The story is an interesting one. On that day the pinnace and whale-boat, under the command of Lieuts. Ross and Price, were cruising between Port Pangane and Mahatto Island, when three dhows were observed standing for the land. The boats stood in to intercept them, the whale-boat leading, and firing several blank cart ridges to bring the vessels to, but without effect, and as they continued to make for the land shots were fired across their bows, which the dhows re turned. The boats then gave chase, and in an hour's time cut them off, and forced them to bring to. The dhows, on being boarded, were all found with Arab colours, but no papers ; en board one of them was an Arab who styled himself King of Angoxa, and claimed the three dhows, but who could neither find passports or papers, ncr account for being with out them. The dhows were all detained on the charge of being engaged in the slave trade, and as the weather appeared threatening, at about 5 p.m. the Gorgon's boats and the captured vessels were anchored two miles to the south of Mahatto Island, with the intention of holding out till morning. To wards night, however, the wind increasing, they became surrounded with, breaKers and a ilvv.v zca, and at 6 p.m Lieut. Ross, finding the dhows had dragged their anchors nearly two miles, and were in danger of being driven on the reef to leeward, where all on board would most probably have perished, removed the slaves and crews from two of the vessels into the third, and then allowed the last dhow to make her way to the shore through a pas sage in the reef with which her crew were well ac quainted as the only chance of saving the lives of the wretched people. The other dhows left in the hands of the captors were then burned, and it was subsequently ascertained that the other vessel had made her way through the passage in the reef in the course of the night, and reached the shore in safety. On board the vessel where the person styling himself King of Angoxa was found, the captors dis covered two revolvers marked with the broad arrow and the letters 8.0., and respectively numbered 18 and 24. It is believed these revolvers formed part of the accoutrements of the men of a boat belonging to the Lyra, who about two years before the capture of these dhows were murdered in Angoxa river, it was suspected at the instigation or with the conni vance of the Sultan or King of Angoxa. The king on being asked whether he had a Portuguese muscat, or any other pass on board, produced a blank envelope addressed to Queen Victoria, which was ,the only document he possessed. It was re ported at Zanzibar, and appears to be the fact, that the king having been expelled from Angoxa— a most notorious slave market and a regular haunt for slavers and pirates—he was endeavouring, when intercepted by the Gorgon's boats, to escape with as many negroes as he could lay hands on. N 0.14 was captured on the 6th Sept.near Quilloa. She was fitted up as a slaver, had plenty of slave food, and an Arab crew of 13 men on board, but neither papers nor colours. The crew admitted that they were bound for Quillo a to get a cargo of slaves. They were landed, and the vessel, which was of the burden of 109 tons, was burned. Two dhows, numbered 15 and 16, were captured on the 11th Sept., off Wasseen reefs. The first was discovered at about 2 pan., a nd after hav in g been as hore in the chased for six miles her crew ran her h rgularly man grove bush and wer e seen to drivewas the e slaves, about 60 in number, inland. S e Dhow No. 16 was dis fitted for the slave trade. 6 p.m., her decks being cover ed and chased at apparently slaves.

She did not obey the usual summons to heave-to, and fired musketry and jingal balls at the pursuers, upon which the pinnace fired at her with shot. After a2O minutes' chase she ran on shore into the mangrove bush. Neither papers nor colours were found on board, and both the crew and the slaves, of whom there appeared to be a considerable number, had left her, the slaves having, no doubt, been driven into the interior. She was destroyed. The last of these dhows was captured on the 3d of October last. On that day, two of the ship's boats were cruising off Sheila Point, when, at S p.m., they saw a dhow running towards the land. They endea voured to intercept her, whereupon the dhow ran on shore, and the Arab crew on board were seen with drawn swords driving a crowd of slaves overboard. The boats boarded the dhow with as much expedi tion as possible, and the Arabs made their escape to the shore, leaving 44 slaves cn board, 32 males and 12 females. The dhow was got off and brought alongside the Gor g on in Kuryhoo Roads. The slaves were r emoved to the Gorgon, and the clho h cv anc hored at the Gorgon's stern, but being leaky, s e sank at her anchorage. It is satisfactory to learn th at the p .ten and t zea lous action of Commander Wilson has given a serious blow to the traffic in slaves.

At the sitting of the Vice-Admiralty Court, held on Saturday the 17th inst., 18 slave dhows, captured by H.M. steamer Gorgon, were condemned. The particulars of some of the captures are not a little exciting, and will be read with interest in England. The first of the dhows on the list was seen by the Gorgon on the morning of the 19th August last, on shore on the reef to the northward of Querimbo Island. Capt. Wilson thereupon boarded her, and found she had a crew of 25 Arabs, and was regularly fitted for the slave trade, but had neither colours nor papers. The master of the dhow stated that on the previns evening, having then 100 slaves on board, shipped at Conducia, he had been chased by one of the British cruisers (supposed to be the Pen guin), and had run ashore in the dark. During the chase the water tanks were thrown overboard, and after the stranding of the vessel the slaves were landed on the island. The crew were engaged in getting the dhow off, in order that she might con tinue her orginal voyage to Comoro, when the Gorgon hove in sight. The hold of the vessel had been recently occupied by slaves, and the cooking and feeding utensils quite as recently used. The crew of the dhow (which was much injured by the reef) were landed on the island, and the dhow, which measured 172 tons, was burnt. The second of these vessels, captured on the 3d of August, while at anchor off Lindey River, was a Persian Gulf dhow, of the burthen of 156 tons. She had on board a crew of 20 Northern or Joasme Arabs, was regularly fitted for the slave trade, and carried a quantity of slave food. She was unsea worthy, and after the crew had been landed, was destroyed. The third and fourth dhows were captured on the 9th August last. On that day two of the ship's boats were cruising off Kiswara Harbour, and see ing the dhows they gave chase. After an hour's run, two of the dhows, finding the boats gaining on them lowered sail, and were boarded. They were all fitted for the slave trade: The crew of the first dow, 15 in number, were Arabs and well armed, and the vessel had neither papers nor eolours. The second dhow had a crew of 12 Arabs. The first of these dhows was destroyed by the captors, and the second abandoned in a sinking state. The capture of the next dhow (No. 5) took place on the 24th of August, not far from Zanzibar, and was attended with circumstances of unusual interest. On the day in question, Mr. G. Harris, second mas ter of the Gorgon, being at Zan zibar in charge of a slave dhow, received informat ion from the British consul, Lieut.-Col. Rigby , th at a Sooree pirate,: pro north of Zanzibar. Mr. Harris named Mohammed bin Ali e, intended to run. • thereupon cargo of slaves from a po int about 7 seven miles ceeded after dark with an armed boat to lay in accompanied by one of wait for the vessel, being .fya her, if necessary. the consul's boats t o identif y dh o w running to About midnight t he y direction, and Mr. s eaward in a north-westerly Harris hailed her to heave to, stating that he was inman-ot- war boat.

The captured vessel was anchored for the night at the place where she had been taken, and on proceeding thither the next morning Mr. Harris found that she had been re moved into a small bight in shore, but was totally deserted.

Wiliam Isaac, clerk to Mr. Boodle, solicitor, Chelten. ham, and John Preston, town-crier, Cheltenham, at tended at the bar at 4 o'clock in obedience to an order of the house, obtained by the Duke of Richmond, to answer for having obtained a number of signatures to a petition presented to that house on the 22d of May, against the East Gloucestershire Railway. The persons at the bar were examined at great length by the Lord Chancellor, Lords Cranworth, Brougham, and Wensleydale, when it appeared they had been acting under the instruction of Mr. Linwood and his clerk, where upon the Lord Chancellor moved that Wm. Isaacs and John Preston be discharged, but that they be ordered to attend next Friday, and that Mr. Linwood and his clerk be also required to attend. Their lordships adjourned during pleasure.

After some discuion the house divided — For the amellment Against it Miori+y —67 Some discussion fen arose on an amendment proposed by Col. Herbe,' t, inwhich Mr. Conolly and Col. Dunne took part, but forth( progress with the 11111 was stopped by the Chairman leaing the chair. At four o'clock thEsitting was suspended. At six the house rsumed THAMES EMBANKMENT. Lord R. MONTX,U, in the course of a conversation with respect to tho roceedings of the Thames embankment committee, complated that the Chief Commissioner of Woorks, who had aced as chairman of that committee, had communicated to a gntleman of the name of Higgins, who was himself a contnutor to the columns of the Times newspaper, a copy e the evidence taken before the com mittee, and had direted Mr. Higgins's attention to certain parts of that evidenct bearing upon the claims of owners or occupiers of houses aetween Whitehall-stairs and West minster-bridge. It ippeared that the letter of the Chief Commissioner of Wcks had through a mistake fallen into the hands of anothergentleman of the same name, who forwarded it to a menber of the committee. He believed that the conduct of tla Chief Commissioner of Works had been very irregular, kel as it had led to the publication of a series of misrepreseltations in reference to the supposed subservience of the coamittee to the Duke of Buccleuch, he felt that he had a righ to call upon the house to support the honour of the tribmal they had themselves appointed. Mr. COWPER saidthat he knew but one Mr. Higgins, and from what he had aeard of the other gentleman of the same name he had no ambition to make his acquaintance. It was true that he had i 9 rwarded to Mr. Higgins a copy of the evidence taken hefoie the committee on the Thames embankment; but as a summary of that evidence had been published from day to day in the newspapers, and as the committee had concluded itk labours, he saw no harm in affording the means of obtaining correct information to any gentleman who might feel an interest in that subject. Mr. HORSMAN condemned the course which had been pursued by the First Commissioner of Works, and cx pressed his belief that the evidence of the committee, with the manuscript annotations of the right hon. gentleman, would not have been communicated to Mr. Higgins unless it had been intended that it should be used for the press. Mr. SCULLY said that he bad always understood that a gentleman who had through any mistake received a com munication which was meant for another person ought to take care to have it forwarded to the quarter to which it was really addressed, or returned to the writer, and that he ought never to make any use of the 'information he had so obtained. An engagement was then given on the part of the Go vernment that the Thames Embankment Bill should not be proceeded with untilthe house should have had time to con sider the evidence taken before the committee. RESERVED CAPTAINS (NAVY). On the motion for the house going into committee of supply, Sir J. HAY again brought forward the claims of the reserved captains of the navy, and moved for a select com mittee to inquire into their case. Lord C. PAGET opposed the motion, observing that the law officers of the Crown, to whom the matter had been re ferred, had given it as their opinion that those officers had no case whatever, The motion was negatived on a division by 108 votes to 92. Mr. BUXTON called the attention of the house to the present amount of the European force in India. That force consisted of 84,000 men; and, considering the present tranquil condition of the country, he thought it ought to be reduced. Mr. VANSITTART believed that in a country so liable as India to sudden outbreaks of disaffection it would be extremely dangerous to reduce the European army below Its present amount. Lord STANLEY was not prepared to recommend any reduction of that force, although he was aware that the re cent exhibition of British power in India had done much to consolidated our rule in that country. Sir C. WOOD could not hold out any expectation that the Government would be able to reduce the European contingent in India by a single man. The subject was then allowed to drop. Sir F. G OLD SMID entered into some details regarding the persecution of certain Jews at Saratow, in Russia, and expressed a hope that her Majesty's Government would address friendly representations to the Government of Rus sia, with a view to obtain redress of that grievance. ledge that the Jews were treated with great severity in Russia. Mr. LAWSON called attention to the general dissatis faction existing throughout the country regarding the laws for licensing houses for the sale of spirituous and fermented liquors, and to the necessity for the immediate revision thereof ; also to the expediency and justice of permitting the inhabitants of any parish or place to decide whether the common sale of such liquors should be carried on within the locality. Mr. K. SEYMER ridiculed the idea of establishing the Maine Liquor Law in this country. Sir G. GREY announced the probability that he should next session introduce a bill on the subject of the existing licensing system ; but he said he could hold out no hope that in that bill he could embody any of the views which Mr. Lawson advocated with regard to a permissive law. Mr. G. DUFF brought under the notice of the house the expediency of removing the seat of Government to some place more eligible than Calcutta. The house then went into committee of supply pro forma. The Companies Bill was read a third time and passed. The Coal Mines Bill was passed through committtee. The Pier and Harbcur Orders Confirmation Bill passed through committee. 'the Juries Bill passed through committee. Mr. J. J. POWELL proposed his amendment for ex empting pharmaceutical chemists from serving on juries. It was, however, opposed by Sir G. Grey, and after discus sion was negatived. The remaining business on the paper was disposed of, and the house adjourned at ten minutes past two. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. ROYAL SWEDISH. The traffic receipts on this line for the two weeks ending the 31st of May amounted to £326, against 661 for the cor responding period of last year, showing an increase of £165. NEW YORK AND ERIE• The traffic returns on this company's line, 491 miles in length, including branches, amounted for the month of May to £115,069, and for the same month of last year to £101,322, showing an increase of £13,747. c eipts on 66 other lines amounted, on 3,614 miles, to £130,069, and for the corresponding week of last year, on 3,454 miles, to £125,647, showing an increase of 160 miles, and of £1,422 in the receipts. The increase in the traffic of the past week as compared with the corresponding period of 1861 arises chiefly from the passenger traffic to the In ternational Exhibition, it being the third week of stilling admissions. The decrease in the goods traffic is caused by the depression of trade. The traffic receipts of t'n3 past week show decrease of £4,538 as compared with these of the preceding week, ending the 14th inst. TRAFFIC RETUR: S T S FOR. THE WEEK. THE RED SEA TELEGRAPH. The report of the amendment on this bill having been brought up, Lord REDESDALE objected to the loose manner in which the bill was drawn up. After the liabilities incurred by the Government with respect to the guarantee to the previous company, it was very desirable that both the com pany and the Government should know exactly how they stood. The Earl of CAMPERDOWN agreed in every respect with the noble lord. He had expected to find a contract in the schedule, but it appeared 'there was only an arrange ment between the Treasury and the Company. He ob jected to a liability of two millions being incurred in this loose manner. The Duke of ARGYLL said that after a full inquiry a committee of the House of Commons had reported in favour of the guarantee to the company which had failed. The Government thought it was too great a risk to restore the cable at their own expense, but a new company had coirie forward and offered to do so if they were guaranteed a profit of 25 per cent. in the event of the experiments being a success. There was, therefore,no risk to the Government, and he contended that it was fully pro vided for in the bill. The LORD CHANCELLOR said the bill made the best of a bad bargain, for without it a sum of £BOO,OOO was actu ally lost,whereas now without any further risk in the event of failure it might be turned to account. As regards the validity of the agreement he thought the bill defective, and suggested an addition to the first section, which would make it perfectly clear and binding. PRIZE MONEY. The Earl of HARDWICKE called the attention of the house to the claims made for prize money on account of the capture of Kertch, and complained that they had not been recognised. The Duke of SOMERSET said that case had assumed a very complicated character, in consequence of the applica tions not having been sent in until after the lapse of six years, and in consequence also of the share which the French and Turkish forces had taken in the expedition. The Admiralty, however, had done all in their power to induce the Treasury to recognise the claims. Earl GREY and the Earl of DERBY strongly condemned the conduct of the Government in not recognising those claims, which were founded on an act of Parliament and on the Queen's proclamation. It was stated that the Cabinet were divided upon the subject. Earl GRANVILLE said that the Cabinet could net be divided upon the matter, as it had never been made a Cabi net question. Mit. EL 1.01 d nivir.a. In reply to a question from Lord CHELMSFORD, The LORD CHANCELLOR said that he had resolved on immediately removing the name of Mr. Edwin James from the list of Queen's counsel. He should have taken that step at an earlier period were it not that he wished to afford Mr. James an opportunity of appealing to the judges from the decision of the benchers in his case. Certain bills were then forwarded a stage, and their lord. ships adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS—YESTERDAY. The SPEAKER took the chair at 12 o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Lords' amendments to the following bills were con sidered and agreed to and ordered for third reading : Bala and Dolgelly Railway—Corwen and Bala Railway— Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire Railway (Addi tional Powers). The Munbee's Divorce Bill was read a third time and passed, and the Macintosh Farr Fund Bill was read a second time. POOR RELIEF (IRELAND) (No. 2) BILL. The house went into committee on this bill, and resumed the consideration of the bill at clause 21, which relates to the dismissal of poor-law officials for incapacity by the commissioners. On a motion of Sir H. BRUCE, that the boards of guar dians should be joined in the power of dismissing these officials, a discussion of some length ensued, in the course of which it was contended that the adoption of the amend ment would disturb the harmony that subsisted between the commissioners and the board of guardians. Ultimately the amendment was withdrawn. Mr. COGAN then moved an amendment to the effect that such officers as the commissioners could dismiss should not be dismissed without the approval of the board of guardians, which was also withdrawn, Mr. COGAN then moved an amendment substantially the same as the preceding, and the committee divided. For the amendment 29 Against 54 Majority Mr. SCULLY, adopting the suggestion of Mr Maguire, in the course of the discussion moved the insertion of a proviso—that inability to be elected a guardian for five years should extend to cases only where the dismissal of officials had taken place for a criminal offence, on which the committee divided — For the amendment 25 Against Majority The clause was then agreed to, as was also clause 22. On clause 23, Col. GREVILLE moved an amendment to the effect that the Chief and Under Secretary for Ireland should cease to be members of the Poor-law Commission. Sir G. GREY objected to the amendment, as it would deprive Government of the responsibility which he thought it was desirable for the public should not be the case. Mr. SCULLY said he would agree to the motion if the amendment were adopted. lie drew the attention of the committee to the facts, that out of the five members of the Poor Law Board, four were Englishmen, and not one a Roman Catholic. He objected to such a constitution, and considered that the Commissioners should all be Irishmen, three Roman Catholics, one a member of the Church Es tablishment, and the other a Presbyterian. Some discussion followed, and Colonel GRENILLE consented to modify his amend ment, by allowing the Chief Secretary for Ireland to retain his place at the Board, provided the Under -Secretary were removed. Sir R. PEEL said he agreed with some of the speakers, that the Roman Catholics should be represented at the Board ; and he believed that if any alteration took place, such would be the case. However, he could assure the committee that nothing could exceed the impartiality of the members of the Board; and he trusted that the Under secretary would not be removed from the Board, consider ing the ability he displayed. After a few words from Lord J. MANNERS and Mr. MAGUIRE, the amendment was withdrawn. Lord NAAS moved an amendment to the effect that the be chargedea chargeability, com m i ss i one rs should be continued in office for five years instead of three years longer , but the amendment w as withdrawn after some discussion. The clause, which was the last of the bill, was then agreed t o . Sir R. PEEL then moved the first clause, which repeal had been postponed, and which related to the of the existing enactments as regarded char alleviation should By the alteration proposed paupers should to the electoral divisions of the union where the y had beenand the longest resident, lived for not less than two Years a s a f oresa id, and that every other pauper elector a l should be chargeable who received to the union at large. It was provided that this after the p passing of the present act, those whobeing chargeabl e to the union or division da l were now r ec e iving relief yfrom only to which those wereeey personsa relief at present receiving relief.

Yesterday in Lord Stanley's Committee it was determined to take only the Bills of the Ellesmere, Ruabon, and Shrews bury, Great Western (Oswestry and Shrewsbury), and Os westry, Ellesmere, and Whitchurch Railways, and decide upon their merits, the standing orders of the House of Lords having been waived in their favour ; but it was also determined not to take the Bills of the Shrewsbury and Wdshpool, Oswestry, Newtown, and Llanidloes, and for their amalgamation, and the Newtown and Machynlleth Railways, which will not be proceeded with this Session, the standing orders not having been relaxed in their favour. The case of the East Glocestershire Railway was concluded in the Duke of Richmond's Committee, but the decision on it is postponed. The amalgamation of the North-Eastern and Hull and Holderness Railways was passed in the Duke of Devonshire's Committee, who subsequently proceeded with the Mid Kent and Addiseombe Railway, allowing the Brighton Company to appear in opposition. TRAFFIC RECEIPTS.
