April '; position for their acceptance should lead to the introduction of acrimonious and irritating topics calculated to wound the susceptibilities of either of the parties in the unhappy con test now carried on in America. lie did not blame the hon. gentleman who had spoken for giving way to his sympathy for the South, but he could not help noticing that while he and others called on the Government to recognise the inde pendence of the South, they in the same breath declared themselves advocates for the strictest neutrality. To pre cipitate any decision on that point would be wholly incon sistent with the neutrality to which we had pledged our selves. He could not say the observations of the hon. gentleman who had just set down were conceived in a spirit of neutrality. (Hear.) But as we had preferred a strict neutrality from the beginning, it was our bounden duty to observe it to the end. We should deal with the North as we would with the South, but we must remember that they (the North) were placed in a position of peculiar difficulty and trial, and we should show towards them in word and act a generous and disinterested forbearance. We should exercise a sympathising judgment towards them, doing that which was right and just to ourselves, and trusting that peace might soon be restored to them and to the world. Now came the question on what principles were we to judge the question which had been raised as to the efficiency of the blockade. We must judge that according to our own principle, and according to the principles of international law, which had been recognised, not only by ourselves, but by the United States, prior to the time of the recent conflict between the States of America. These States had pro duced great jurists, who had borne testimony to the prin ciples of law laid down by the English authorities, amongst others Chancellor Kent, whose decisions had given great precision to the law of blockade, and whose testimony he (the Solicitor-General) was willing to set against all aspersions cast upon the lawof this country on the present subject. The hon. and learned gentleman the member for Galway had brought forward, though only for the sake of saying that he did not accept it, the authority of M. De Toqueville, who in his work and with the dates before his eyes, did not hesitate to say that the Milan and Berlin decrees were retaliations for the conduct of England towards France, whereas those decrees had been made in 1806, and the first of our Orders in Council on the subject was not issued till the year 1807. With regard to the Northern and Southern States, Eng land was doing nothing inconsistent with her previous practice; but that writer might very well think, though his own Government did not sympathise with him in the matter, that it would be convenient in certain conditions that Eng land should have made herself a party to his new-fangled notions of a blockade which would render it impossible for any blockade to be maintained, and would so destroy the su periority of our maritime arms. Was it necessary to con stitute an effective blockade that no ship should run that blockade ? If so, there never had been, and never could be, a real blockade. According to the decision of 1780, a blockade by a force such as would make it evidently dan gerous to enter the port, was considered a legal blockade. The hon. gentleman said that what was laid down by Lord Russell in the stipulations of the treaty of Paris bad been unaccepted by the American authorities. But the fact was, that Mr. Dallas had said that those principles, as he under stood, were consistent with what had been long laid down, and, in point of fact, contained nothing new, though he (Mr. Dallas) also said that as to the treaty itself, it was only binding upon those Powers who were parties to it. In order to establish a blockade two things were necessary ; first, there must be a bona fide blockade, and next a sufficient notification of the existence of the blockade. No matter what writers on this subject might lay down, it was impossible to say precisely what force was necessary to establish a blockade. For the change which recent improvements had led to in the mode of warfare, much must be left to the judgment of the naval officer in command. In a judgment delivered in 1809 by Sir W. Grant upon appeal it was held that the blockade of a port was sufficient, although maintained only by one vessel, which had also to assist in the blockade of another port a few miles distant. A blockade might even be intermitted and resumed, and as soon as you have know ledge of it, it is the same as if it had not been intermitted. Some gentlemen seemed to look at this question as if the blockade of the whole coast was one, and that in the absence of a sufficient force at any point to maintain the blockade at that spot, the whole blockade was gone ; but it had been laid down that one port could be effectually block aded though others on the same coast were not, and even that one entrance to a port might be effectively blockaded though vessels could still enter by another channel which was not properly guarded. In 1804 and and 1806 we had allowed the Custom •house vessels to pass our blockades, though other vessels were still excluded. It was decided that those vessels which had been permitted to pass could not be treated as prizes, but that this did not justify other persons in breaking the blockade, as if it had ceased to be enforced. The hon. and learned gentleman also referred, in support of his view, to the blockade of Havre, 1798-99. This was all that he thought necessary to state to the court (much laughter)—all that he thought was necessary to state to the house. He did not state whether those decisions were right or wrong; but this was the law as it had been laid down. From the first, the President of the United States had declared that those ports should be, and were blockaded according to the law of the United States, and to the law of nations, and that a competent force should be provided to maintain and enforce the blockade. There was no indication of any intention to establish a paper blockade, or to do anything contrary to the rights of nations. Lord J. Russell had raised this question in a conversation with Mr. Adams in May, 1861, when Mr. Adams declared that his Govern ment had no intention to institute a paper blockade, against which the United States had always protested. He (the Solicitor-General) offered no opinion as to whether the blockade was sufficiently maintained or not. Professions had been uniformly made to that effect, and the due notices had been given. There had been no false assumption in principle. If there had been, under pretence of a blockade, and under colour of accidental remissness, a real absence of proper force to maintain the blockade, that would, no doubt, be a case in which we might interfere. The Govern ment could only form its opinion upon the reports of its own officers. Those reports were that, under some circum stances, and at some places, there was a great remissness in enforcing the blockade ; while at other times and other places there was great strictness in enforcing the blockade. The question, therefore, became one of place, and time, and circumstances with reference to each vessel said to have run the blockade. The member for Bradford had shown that there were only sixteen cases in which vessels could be said to have run the blockade; while in every case but one the vessel so esciping was owned either by citizens of the Con federate or United States. From the reports of our Con • suls and our cruising officers it appeared that the blockade was efficiently maintained in September and December last, in all the ports of the Gulf of Mexico. Galveston was ad mitted to have been strictly blockaded from June to Octo ber, and there was no reason to suppose that the blockade had since been less effective. Then as to Savannah, the report of the Consul showed that, although there was a short intermission after the institution of the blockade, yet that it was immedietely resumed, and continued so strict that up to the time of his writing only one ship had run the blockade. With respect to Charleston, it was hue that Mr. Brunel, writing from a distance, and relying upon the reports of others, did speak of the laxity of the blockade of this port. But it would be found that he referred to laxity so far as coasting vessels went i and Commander Lyons and other naval officers reported that so far as sea-going vessels went, the blockade was effective, while all ac counts agreed in saying that no intentional relaxation of the blockade had taken place on the part of the United States squadron. 'We had, therefore, satis factory evidence of an efficient blockade of Charleston from June to October last. That some ships had entered Charles ton and Savannah was accounted for by the nature of the coast. Intersected with bays and lagunes, and with an inland navigation cornected with them and ramifying throughout the interior, the sea entrances of Charleston and Savannah were by no means the only channels by which small vessels could reach those places, although large ves sels could only enter through the channels opening directly out to sea. But it could never be maintained that there could be no efficient blockade of Savannah and Charleston unless the enemy could intercept the inland navigation for some 60 or 70 miles. The blockade of tho main channels opening out to sea, if effective, would not be vitiated by the fact that coasting vessels could enter through these lagunes and the inland navigation. It then came- to this that the question was one of times and circumstances with reference to each vessel. The validity of each case of seizure was to be decided by the prize courts of the belligerent power ; and the neutral power was bound to acquiesce in that decision, unless it was obviously unjust. Then, no doubt, we had a right to demand redress for the particular act. But there was here no question of breaking the blockade. lie could not make out what the member for Galway wanted. He referred, indeed, to an armed neutrality. But were we to dictate to the United States what they were to do ; and that, if our terms were not accepted, we would send our ships with armed convoys to break the blockade. 'What would that be ? He said it would be war. Au armed neutrality was a species of war not more honourable because it was not avowed. But such an armed neutrality as this was one never heard of in the history of the world—not even in the days of the Empress Catherine, or of the mad Paul. For a country professing to be at peace to set at nought the re ceived usages of nations, to say, " Our ships shall not bo subjected to prize courts ; we will enforce our trade at the point of the sword"—that was a thing which any nation doing would not only do at her own peril, but would incur the consequences of war. It might, indeed, happen that the country whose rights were thus invaded might at the time be unable to resent such an aggre sion by force of arms. But did they think the injury could be forgotten, or that peaceful rela tions could ever be re 'established between the two coun tries ? And was it desirable that such should be our con duct towards our brothers in blood, language, and religion, the children of our forefathers, those to whom we were united by all the ties which could bind men to men ? Even in the holiest of causes, even in such a cause of war as that which lately seemed imminent, we should enter into it with feelings that he could not describe ; and if, on that occa sion, we had been forced into a contest—although we should have had no alternative, and were not the aggressors —it would have been a great addition to the bitter feelings which such a contest would have occasioned, that it might have been imputed to us, that, wthaetr,e obligedh avigmtaodbeestu9chuusciaerinifitc4c. es for the sake a liberty w , to the Bermuda leaving the blockade on a dark and stormy night. Now, he had received a letter from a gentleman who was a passenger in that vessel, who stated that it was per fectly well known that the vessel was laden and ready for sea--that the weather was fine and clear—and that she went out without meeting any obstruction whatever. (Hear, hear.) This morning he had seen three gentle men who arrived in this country on Tuesday last in the Carron. That vessel found no blockade whatever, and had been in and out of Charleston at least twenty times since the paper blockade had been established. He could furnish the noble lord at the head of the Government with the names of 600 vessels which had passed out of the Con federats• ports since the proclamation of the blockade. sincetr ading t h Southern e middleStates'regularly o (Hear, hear,) The Mercantile Weekly Report stated that and ü b bi d e between e : Il i a . t l e sshAe nt blockaded a ot n chkaa : d 5 epvdaepsesrel portsst t d h d a eo d df been et since the statement was in type four vessels had arriveda t Matanzas from the Southern p or t s. (Hear, hear . ) B y the declaration at Paris it was laid d own th at a blockade must be effective. Now, it might be said that the American Government were no parties to that declaration, and that it was in fact rejected by them. That was true, but the Ame rican Government had acknowledged the principle laid down in 1856, and it was admitted in our despatches that they would not respect blockades unless they are effective and sufficient to prevent access, not only to the ports, but to the coast of the enemy. The American Government had not only acknowledged that principle, but acted upon it; and if we should unfortunately be thrown into war with any country no person would be found more ready to maintain that principle than the American Government. (Hear.) It was evident from the reports made by our own officers that the blockade was not an effective one. Commander Lyons, in his despatch of Nov. 21, alludes to the disgrace ful expedient resorted to of sinking vessels filled with stones. He said it was a disgraceful proceeding, because it was closing up harbours given by God to man for the use of mankind. If any British ship had been captured and con demned during the time of the pretended blockade when there was in reality no blockade, he hoped the owners would insist on the Government demanding compensation for the ship so condemned. We had a right to interfere with the States if they interfered with us. By their blockade they were injuring our commerce, and we had a right to remon strate. He should like to hear from the Government their views, or some indication of what their views were, as to the recognition of the independence of the Southern States. Were Government of opinion that a people numbering some Sir G. GREY said that he would postpone the aecond reading of this bill until after he hal received the depu tion which he understood was to call on him on the subject. CORRUPT PRACTICES PREVENTION. In reply to Mr. H. BERKELEY, Sir G. GREY said that a bill on this subject was in pre paration. COMPETITIVE EXAMINATION. Mr. B. COCHRANE gave notice that he would move a resolution to the effect that it would be inexpedient to adopt the principle of competition in every department of the public service. LUNACY IN SCOTLAND.

At half-past 9 this morning Mr. Justice Williams took his seat in the Borough Hall, a long low build ing built in the reign of Queen Elizabeth, open from the floor to the cross-beams and rafters of the roof, and ornamented with paintings of Henry Earl of Huntingdon, Hastings, and Hungerford, Knight of the Garter, and of Sir Thomas White. It is long since the assizes were held in this ancient hall, the date of which, as shown on a part of the old carved pannelling, is 1586. George Robinson, charged with having forged and knowingly uttered at Leicester, on 17th Aug. last, an order for the payment of £5, pleaded not guilty. Mr. O'Brien conducted the case for tho prosecu tion ; the prisoner defended himself. Mr. Cooke, a cornfactor, proved that the prisoner, who was altogether a stranger to him, came to his place of business on 17th Aug. and said that Cooke's name had been mentioned to him (the prisoner) as being a likely person to undertake an agency for the sale of Baltic commodities, and that he (prisoner) was one of a firm engaged in chartering a vessel for the Baltic. At the same time he showed witness what purported to be a bill of lading. Cooke gave no positive answer to the proposal, and the prisoner went away. Hes returned at 9 p.m. of the same day and stated that he was placed in unpleasant circum stances, as his landlady had sent up the bill to him self and a companion of his for payment, and that it had only just then occurred to him that he had ne glected to get cash at Peterborough for a cheek he had received there, and asked Mr. Cooke whether it would be too grea t a f avour to desire him to cash it. Witness said, not if it was a genuine check ; he was then called out, an d saw th e " boots" of the inn at which the pri soner h a d b een s t a ying. On returning to the prisoner he presented a check on plain paper, purporting to be drawn at Peterborough on the Stamford, Sp a ldi n g, a nd Boston Bank, the writing being, as the witness noticed, in the same i hand as that on th e bill o f l a di ng h e had seen n the morning, a n d h e gave it b ac k re f u sing to cash it. The prisoner alleged that he had received it in Peterborough from a Mr. Clayton, to whom he lent £5 when they had met in London, but who he stated was a stranger t o hi m , an d w h ose r esidence he did not know. Mr. George Clayton, the only Clayto n who could be f oun d i n Peterborough, proved that the check was not in his writing. No one bearing the name of Matthew Clayton (the name signed to the check) could be found. He was sentenced to 12 months' imprisonment, with hard labour. The Lord Chief Justice took his seat in the Castle at half-past 11, on the Crown side, and having c harged the gr an d j ury procee d e d t o t r y prisoners. The majority of th e cases we re suc h as are triable at the quarter sessions, and of little general interest. Mr. Justice Williams, having cleared the borough gaol, proceeded to the Castle, and took his seat in the Nisi Prius Court to try the only defended cause. W J.

SINGULAR CASE OF POISONING AT LIVERPOOL. —A mysterious case of poisoning was investigated by the Liverpool coroner on Thursday. The facts of the case are thtse :—Ellen Fairclough, aged 5 years, the daughter of a labourer, and a little boy named John Spencer, on Tuesday afternoon were in the neighbourhood of Walton. When near the church at that place they were met by two young mn, one of whom told the children to open their mouths, and then placed in each a piece of something that looked like "white soda," making the children swallow it, throw ing the little boy down to make him accede to their wishes. Immediately afterwards the latter became unwell, and vomited, but he ultimately recovered. The girl also became very sick, and on reaching home infotmed her mother of what had taken place, when the latter went to a druggist in Scotland-road, and procured an emetic, which she ad ministered to the child. Warm water was also given to her, by which the vomiting was continued. The child, how. ever, grew worse, and died the following day. A post mortem examination of the body showed the cause of death to be congestion of the brain, but whether from natural causes or the administering of a narcotic poison, Dr. Ayr ton, examination, was f the to ounablestmnh and o sa y po i its contents. - tive narcotic lyw hounlessm poison. andithe there opinion was that death wascaused by a was an analysis The scoundrels who administered the stuff to the children are being looked after by the police. The verdict of the coronet's jury was, " That death was caused by narcotic poison, but by whom administered there was no evidence to show." 20TH REGIMENT NATIVE INFANTRY. Mr. LESLIE asked the Lord Advocate whether the Sal mon Fisheries (Scotland) Bill, and the Roads and Bridges (Scotland) Bill, would be brought forward during the pre sent session ? Ensign William Octavius Foord, from the 47th Regi ment Native Infantry, to be Lieutenant, vice Robson, pro moted. The LORD-ADVOCATE said that there was so much diffic ity and difference of opinion on the first subject, that he did not propose to introduce any bill in reference to it. As regarded the second subject, it was not improbable that a bill respecting it might be introduced. VAGRANCY (SCOTLAND).

But after and paid on the principle of the old either receive mini, date the managers of schools could them themselves r Pupil teachers, or, if they paid under the revived theylsed eode .

Mr. LEFROY asked4t7ll LONGFORD. e Cfhief Secretary for Ireland if the Government had received re sults of the riots alleged to ull information as to the 60711040 n was calculated election for Longford, and if that information 4 41 'en place at the late to alleviate the anxiety produced in, sons whose friends and tenants were e minds of many per of threats dangerously wounded by the mob, in conseque n ce to have been held out against them if they exercised ctiheeire:rivilege of voting for the candidate they wished to su ch was the case, if the Government proposed to d if meas ures to prevent a repetition of such proceedings t a any any future occasion ? Sir R. PEEL said that this was a question which ex . cited a great d eal of interest, and gave rise, no doubt, to strong feelings in the minds of hon. members on both s id es of the house. (Hear.) He was not surprised that after the sce nes that had ta ken p lace at Longford hon. members should express strong feelings on the subject. He believed that scenes of violence had taken place at the Longford election which had not been witnessed for a long time in Ireland. He believed also that the election—the mockery of election he would call it—at Longford would form a sub ject of Parliamentary inquiry, and that 110 freedom of opinion was exercised. _dr. HENNESSY rose to order. He said that, as thi s s °• D ient was to be brought before Parliament" he thought the right hen.'gentleman should not. go WO the question penJing that in qu i ry. * Thu' sPEliii. mt , said the hen, member was right as re six or eight millions—a people who had proclaimed their independence—raised an army—and established a Govern ment—were not entitled to be considered as fit to govern themselves. He wished to hear the principle by which the Government would be guided in recognising the indepen dence of the Southern States. If the people of America in 1774 had a right to rebel from being over taxed, the people of the Southern States of the present day had a greater right to rebel. Two-thirds of the exports of the United States consisted of the produce of the Southern States. These exports were paid for by imports, and the principal part of those imports came from England. These imports were heavily taxed for the benefit of the Northern States and Central Virginia. Ile abominated slavery as much as any man could, but it was a mistake to suppose that the North was opposed to slavery. Two of their most distin guished generals who had uttered opinions against slavery had been recalled. He believed that nine out of ten people in the Northern States did not desire to see slavery abolished. The North were boasting what they would do with England when they had settled their differences with the South. If we showed any sympathy at all, it ought to b s e ou vroilth the oppressed. Let not Government do to the would he what they would no t have done to the North. He be eirial justice done to both. Why should blood shed continued when it could have no end but separa tion?
