The SPEAKER took the chair at twenty minutes pass welve o'clock, a house not having been made before. GREAT GRIMSBY ELECTION. Mr. WALPOLE brought up the report of the General Election Committee, nominating the following members to serve on the Committee on the petition against the return of the member for Great Grimsby, namely, Mr. J. E. Egerton (Chairman), Sir A. W. Buller, Mr. G. G. Glyn, Mr. Longfield, Mr. Liddell and Lord Robert Montagu. MARRIAGES (IRELAND) BILL. On the motion for going into Commitee on this bill, Sir E. GROGAN said that this was a measure which deeply affected the social interests of the people in Ireland, and, though he had not given notice of any motion, lit would o them eo ba n ikl s l theiindgerd it ought to be referred to a e one in reference to it. The more r hevi concludesil oono k more objectionable he found its select committee up stairs before p rocee di ng f ur th er . Th e present law was operating ‘stiaf4.t. i it y ivaand, and h a d s looked n a d at h y e been got into good working order through the exertions of the gentlemen at the head of the department. Notwith standing that fact, it was proposed by this bill to upset that state of things and to introduce a merely experimental measure. (Hear, hear.) The marriages celebrated by Roman Catholic clergymen between persons of different denominations was proposed to be made penal, but a law to the same effect existed at present, which had been invari ably evaded. Persons of different denominations might profess themselves Roman Catholics, and, after the cele bration of marriage by a Roman Catholic priest, return to their real faith ; 'but for such practices there was no re medy. He could not see why the statute law of this coun try in reference to marriage should not be extended to Ireland. He concluded by moving that the house go into committee on this bill that day six months. After a few words from Mr. Bagwell, Mr. George, and Mr. Sculley, zoi i Sir R. PEEL denied that, as regarded him, there was any ignorance in the bill of which he had given notice. Mr. CARDWELL also supported the bill. Colonel FRENCH also supported going into'committee. Sir H. CAIRNS (who introduced the bill) said that it .had been committed last July, but there was no opposition to it in Ireland, and that had been an amendment placed on the paper. With respect to objections that had taken place he said it would be impossible for a private member to introduce a bill for an uniform system of registration ill Ireland. In the first place they would have to deal with the Established Church of Ireland, Which had a system of surrogates. [LEFT SPEA.KING.) This Day.) LA W INTE LLIGBNCE.—_( 1111 i COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner. Holroyd.) THE ST. ALBANS BANK-IN RE GIBSON. Mr. Bayley appeared on behalf of this b an k rupt, w h o was formerly one of the partners in the St. Albans Bank, and wholly refused so far said he now applied h section of the new fb w oa h rc o ak s n e aso r d 1 certificate eB r 5 00 .f discharge k r nruuenpddt under ry the counselw a s l6 t act. He said that the creditors were so w e ll sa ti s fi e d w ith the conduct of the bankrupt sumo the bankruptcy that they had all, with one or two exceptions, signed a document expressive of their hope that the Court would grant the order. One of the main charges against the bankrupt was overdrawing his ac counts, but his private estate was large, and had realised a considerable sum, which the result appeared to justify in a great measure the extent of the withdrawals. Mr. Lawrance, for the assignees, did not oppose, and said that the bankrupt . had rendered zealous and indefatigable services to promote the interest of the estate, and they there fore had no opposition to make, and as creditors joined the general body. Mr. LinklatPr, who opposed the certificate en behalf of creditors, now spoke in favour of the bankrupt, and would be glad if the application was granted. His Honour was glad to be relieved from any difficulty in the matter by the expression of the feeling of the credi tors, and as there was no opposition the discharge would issue. Railways.

This bankrupt was described as of Queen's-place, St. Pancras, surveyor, and this was an adjourned last exami nation, the adjournment having been made for enquiry into the accounts as to the petitioning creditors' debts, and for bankrupt to answer requisition. Mr. Boyd, Aldermanbury, was appointed accountant, and Mr. Saffery, Basinghall street, to inspect for the assignees. The debts are : to unsecured creditors £668 ; secured, £4,000. Profit in the hands of creditors £3,450. A further adjournment was taken by consent. SHERIFFS' COURT. (Before Mr. Kerr.) BISHOP AND ANOTHER V. SEVERAL DEFENDANTS:--110W TO STOP THE INFAMOUS TALLY SYSTEM. These were tally cases, but different from the ordinary run of such matters, inasmuch as the majority of the pre sent actions was against " securities." In seven cases women appeared, and it appeared that, although their hus bands were poor labouring men, whose wages were some what uncertain, they had most foolishly become sureties for friends or relations. The debts were, as usual, to be paid at ls. or 2s. per week; and in two cases it was admitted that plaintiffs had sued for too much, upon which his honour refused to allow any costs. As regarded the documents or "guarantees," his honour hinted that it was necessary the paper should bear a stamp; but in reference to the facts, Mr. Kerr very strongly denounced the system. Facilities were afforded to one poor person to run into debt in order to serve another poor person, and nothing could be more reck less or abominable. But (said his honour) I will put a stop to it, if possible, for it must be put down, I shall order such long payments that you will either charge so much for your goods that no one will be able to buy them, or you will not give such credit for the future. Orders were made at 25., 35., 45., and ss. per month. ADVICE TO TRADESMEN , -SIMPSON V. GORDON. This was a claim for goods supplied. Mr. Sorrell, of Mark-lane, appearing for the plaintiff, and Mr. Buchanan for defendant. The accounts were much disputed by the legal gentle men, and his honour strongly recommended that better par ticulars should be given. Mr. Sorrell objected, and said he could make out his case. Mr. Buchanan would not mind paying any money into Court. His honour wished that tradesmen would make out proper accounts. A loose system led to endless trouble and litiga tion, added to expense. After some discussion, his honour, with great trouble, found for the plaintiff for £2O 4s. 3d., with costs. A CHILD FOUND DECAPITATED.—Yesterday morning, between five and six o'clock, as a labouring man named Thomas Bainbridge was passing to his work along the towing-path of the Regent's-canal, on reaching that portion running along the frontage of Albert-terrace, Regent's-park, he discovered a paper parcel resting on the wall. He took it down, and en opening the parcel dis covered to his horror that it was the dead body of a fine newly-born insant, with its head severed from its body. He gave information to the police, and upon th e b o d y o f th e ohild being more minutely exam ined the head was found lying underneath its legs. It had evid ent l y been cut off with a razor, or some exceedingly sh ar p i nstrument ; and there were other indications showing that the child had been born alive, and had been the victim of a foul and deliberate murder. The body was removed to St. Pancras Workhouse to await an inquest. •. ADMISSIONS TO THE EXHIBITION BUILDING.— Several respectable persons who had obtained admission yesterday into the Exhibition building by using exhibitors' and workmen's tickets found themselves, as might have been expected, in the somewhat disagreeabl e p os iti on o f being in the custody of th e p o lice, and were conducted by them to the Executive Committee, the me m b ers o f w hi c h, being the buildi ng .

ACTION AGAINST A RAILWAY COMPANY FOR NEGLIGENCE —At the Liveipool Assizes yesterday, before Mr. Justice Mellor, an action, of Clementson v. the London and North Western Railway Company, was tried. On the night of the 18th of December the plaintiff, a cotton broker, while en route from visiting lis brother at Mossley, went to the station there to take a ticket fk,r Ashton-under-Lyne. The Mossley station was at teat tim e i n process o f rebuild ing, and, in the crush , the paintiff tripped over a railway sleeper and fell on his face oi a pile o f slates, severely in juring his face, and permanaitly injuring his powers of mastication. The plaintiff (Urged the defendants with gross negligence, . they layingthe so l o f au l t o f t h e acc id en t at the door of the plaintiff.

ROBBERY BY A JEWELLER'S ASSISTANT.—Joseph Brand was charged with stealing a quantity of jewellery from the shop of his employer, Mr. Ulman, of 10, Great Russell street, Bloomsbury. Mr. Ulman said the prisoner was formerly in his employ as assistant, and some days ago he di6eharged him from his employment in the shop, but retained him as a commercial traveller. It was his duty to collect orders, for which he was to receive 5 per cent. commission. On the 25th of March he missed a quantity of jewellery from the shop, and in the course of that evening he found the prisoner in a coffee shop and charged him with stealing the property. Prisoner admited that he had taken goods to the amount of £5O, which he had pawned. The greater part of the pro perty was discovered at the pawn shops mentioned, which was at once identified by the prosecutor as his property. Prisoner—He made me a promise, your worship, that if I told him the truth he would not go further against me. I told him I had pawned the things. .Mr. Henry—Did you make the promise with him ? Mr. Ulman—Yes, but he told me he had burned the tickets, which was not the case, so ho did not tell me the truth. Prisoner—lle took my hand in his own and said, as a man of honour he would forgive me, if I told him where the things were. Prosecutor—l promised to forgive him if I got my things back. Mr. Henry—You are a foreigner, and probably do not know that the law of this country does not permit a prose cution after a promise of forgiveness has been made. Prosecutor—l said I would forgive him if he told me the truth. Prisoner—At the time he made the promise he gave me half -a-crown. Prosecutor—Yes, I gave him the half-crown. I did so because he said he had no breakfast. Ido not recollect giving the promise in the way he states. Mr. Henry —lt would save a great deal of trouble if you could remember. Prosecutor—l told him I would forgive him if he told , r•» the truth ; I will not, however, prosecute him further.: Mr. Henry—Then I shall discharge the pvicumor. as he appears to have had a promise of forgiveness made him; The prisoner then quitted the dock. The police-constable informed the magistrate that the pawnbrokers were in attendance with the property. Mr. Henry—l shall make no order about it. The prose cutor seems to have taken the case into his own hands by extracting a sort of promise from the person charged with stealing it. An elderly woman, named Ellen Lewis, was charged with stealing a joint of pork from the shop of Mr. Robinson in Drury-lane. The wife of the prosecutor said yesterday the woman came in the shop and stole the piece of meat. She followed her and detained her as well as she could until assistance arrived. Mathew Jones, a butcher, said he saw the crowd assembled round the prisoner and Mrs. Robinson. As the ' woman was trying to get away he held her until a police constable arrived, and then he assisted in taking her to the station. house. On the road thither she out her hand in her pocket and said to him, " If you don't get away I'll run a knife into you." Notwithstanding this threat he accom panied her to the police station, where, on being searched, a knife was taken from the pocket of the prisoner. She was quite sober. Police-constable 176 F said when the prisoner was locked up she was quite sober. Prisoner—How can you say so—l was very drunk. If I hadn't a been so, do you think I should have taken the pork ? Mr. Henry—Drunkenness is a very bad excuse for theft. How do you get your living, and whore do you reside ? Prisoner—Well, I've no regular place of living. I go out to do cleaning. Mr. Henry—Tell me one place that you have been in the habit of going to. Prisoner—Well, I can't recollect any one in particular just now. All I know is, that I must have been drunk or I should not have taken the property. Mr. Henry—As you will not give any information about yourself, I shall remand you in order that the police may make some inquiry about you, The prisoner was then locked up.

Henry Tennant, a lodging -housekeeper, of 12, Little Portland street, was charged with an assault on Alfred Aimer, a coffeehouse-keeper, under the following circumstances. Messrs. Eyre and Lawson prosecuted, and Mr. Edward Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, defended. The complainant said he was employed by a Mr. Ward to remain in possession at the defendants' house, and went with him on the previous evening. Mr. Ward was the broker, and Mr. Deacon, of 21, Old Bond-street, the land lord. On entering the passage, and as Mr. Ward was going to make the inventory, the defendant seized Mr. Ward and threw him from one side of the passage to the other. He told the defendant that he could not permit that, when a senile ensued between him (witness) and the defendant, and both fell. A female then said she would rip him (wit ness) up, and his hat was smashed, A second struggle took place to get possession of a pair of tongs, and a con stable coming up the defendant was given into custody. He (witness) had a few small marks about his face. By Mr. Lewis—The defendant did not say that he had paid his rent up to March. The defendant rents under the tenant of the next house, a Mr. Bushell. Mr. H. W. Ward, of 65, Great Russell-street, clerk to Mr. Baker, auctioneer, said Mr. Deacon, the landlord of houses Nos. 11 and 12, Little Portland-street, authorized the distress and signed the warrant to distrain on both houses which were held by Mr. Bushell under an agreement. He told the defendant he held a warrant for £69 3s. 2d., and said he wanted the rent from both houses, and that if the rent was not forthcoming he must distrain. A person named Bushell was the tenant, and he had underlet one house to the defendant. The defendant seized him by the collar and threw him from one side of the passage to the other, and then a scuffle took place between his man and the defendant. By Mr. Lewis—The authority for the distress is from Mr. Deacon to Mr. Baker, but he being from home he (wit ness) executed it. He had no particular authority to levy this distress. Some other evidence being given, Mr. Lewis said it was a case of great hardship. Mr. Deacon was the landlord of the two houses, which he had let under an agreement to Mr. Bushell, and the defendant rented one of them under Mr. Bushell, and had paid his rent up to March last. Mr. Deacon had allowed Mr. Bushell to run in arrear for a whole year, and then in structed Mr. Baker—who was here represented by his clerk —to levy for a whole year's rent. He (Mr. Lewis) considered it a case of great hardship, and he had doubts whether it was even done legally, for he had heard that the per sons had not entered till 20 minutes past six o'clock. The defendant, he was instructed, had said, on their entering the house, " I owe no rent, and you shan't come in ;" and all that took place was a bit of a struggle. What the de fendant had done was in ignorance of the law, and under the impression that the persons had no right to enter, as he owed no rent. He (Mr. Lewis) considered it a very trumpery case. Mr. Tyrwhit said he thoaght the defendant had fair reason to doubt whether they could ask him for the rent. He should, however, as the assault was proved, fine the defendant 10s., or 14 days. THAMES. SERIOUS ROBBERY ON THE RlVER.—Thomas Thomp son, a lighterman and waterman, of bad character, who is well known to the police, was brought before Mr. Wool rych charged with stealing a bale of raw silk, value £250, from a barge on the River Thames. It appeared in evidence that a lighterman named Wilson, whose conduct was stated by the magistrate to be deserving of great praise, was leaving the shop of Mr. Stirling, the chemist and druggist in High-street, Whitechapel, on Sa turday night last, and saw a horse and cab standing nearly opposite, and a large bale of silk on the roof of the cab. Wilson at once suspected a robbery had been commit ted, and looked about for a police-constable, but not being able to see one determined to act himself. There was one man already in the cab, and the prisoner and a third man came running towards the cab in a very excited state directly afterwards and entered the cab. The driver mounted the box and was about to drive away, when Mr. Wilson ordered him to stop, and said that a bale of silk was stolen. The prisoner said, " What has it to do with you? Drive on, cabby." Wilson held fast by the horse's head, and the prisoner and his companions immediately left the cab and ran away, each taking a different route. The cab was then driven to the station-house in Leman-street, Wilson accompanying it, and the bale of silk was safely lodged in the custody of the police. Dunaway, a detective officer of the H division, and Dyer, a Thames police constable, immediately commenced an active inquiry, and ascertained that tho bale of silk had been stolen on Saturday afternoon from a barge on the river off Brewer's Quay, The silk was intended to be put on board the Earl of Auckland steamer, bound to 11 , 4terdam, and was worth exactly £250. The bale was put on board the barge between 11 and 12 o'clock on Saturday morning. It was missed in the evening. In answer to questions by Mr. Woolrych, Mr. Spencer, proprietor of the barge from which the bale was stolen, said the thieves could only get to the barge from a boat. They could not have reached it from Brewer's Quay. The barge was moored off that place for two hours on Saturday preparatory to navigating her to the Earl of Auckland. The barge was left unattended for an hour and a half on Saturday, and in the course of that time the robbery was committed. Dunaway and Dyer, the officers engaged in the case, said they apprehended the prisoner last night in Salmon-lane, Limehouse, and told him that he was charged with stealing a bale of silk. He said he knew nothing about it. If the prisoner was remanded, witnesses would be produced who saw him near Mr. Spencer's barge on Saturday. Mr. Woolrych remanded the prisoner itntil Monday next, 7 2rE NAVY. Letters dated Jan. 21 have been received at Ply mouth from an fficer of the screw steam corvette Charybdis, 21, Capt. the Hon. G. D. Keane. She had le .t Yokahama and arrived at Jeddo, in Japan, where she lay four miles from the shore. The officers were allowed to land only for the pur pose of going to the residence of the British Minis ter, and then it was necessary for them to be armed with sword and pistol. They were not permitted to go into the city without a special invitation by the Minister. An armed escort accompanied them wl•en they did go, and they were not allowed to enter any of the shops. Thirty Marines from the corvette were protecting the Minister's house. The Imperial Government continued faithful, but the numerous armed retainers of the nobles were constantly threat. ening aggression. Fourteen Marines kept guard at the house of the British Resident at Yokahama. The British seamen were healthy. The Rolla, training brig for naval apprentices at Portsmouth, Lieut.-Commanding C. G. Nelson, is ordered by the Admiralty to leave Portsmouth to morrow and anchor off Osborne, for the purpose of receiving his Royal Highness Prince Alfred on board each day during his stay at Osborne, to acquire practice, under the supervision of Lieut. Nelson, in carrying out the various duties of the ship. The Prince was under Lieutenant Nelson's tuition on board the Rolla for a period of six months before joining the Euryalus frigate. Lieut. Nelson was gunnery lieutenant on board the Imperieuse frigate s carrying the broad pendant of Commodore Watson, in the Baltic, and has now commanded the Rolla for five years and seven months. Rear - Admiral Lewis Tobias Jones, K.C.8., yes terday hoisted his flag on board the St. Vincent at Portsmouth pro forma, as Commander-in-Chief at Cork, receiving the usual honorary salute from the guns of th e ship_ The Victory, flagship of Vice-Admiral Sir H. W. Bruce, Naval Commander-in-Chief at Portsmouth, struck her winter poles yesterday and sent up top masts and topgallant masts for the summer. The Java target ship was towed down Porchester Creek yesterday to have a sample armour plate from Rigby and Beardmore's Works, Glasgow, affixed to her side for the purpose of being tested. The Java has now some sample plates attached to her sides, which have been lately tested, and found to be very ill-suited to resist shot. The Royal Alfred, converting at Portsmouth from a 90 gun line-of-battle ship to a 50 gun iron plated frigate, has a large number of hands employed on her, and has the major part of her outer planking on her sides. She is an object of much curiosity from the peculiar conformation of her bow and stern, her stem falling inboard from the water line, and being without the ordinary headrails, figure head, &c. Her stern at present has an unusually ugly appearance, the junction of the two sides ter minating above the sternpost in an apex, which, were it not for the rudder and screw aperture below, might be taken, not unreasonably, to be the running down beak of the ship. The Royal Alfred is now in just such a state that she could be finished as a six cupola ship for Sir W. Armstrong's 300 pounders. She would he, beyond all comparison, far more effec tive as such than she evercan be as a 50 gun frigate. Considerable surprise has been expressed in naval circles at Portsmouth at the statement of Lord C. Paget, in reply to Mr. Osborne, in the House of Commons on Monday evening, that a ship was now being built on Capt. Coles's cupola plan. It is well known that all that has been done is the prepara tion of drawings. Private builders have been invited to tender for her construction, but beyond this nothing whatever has been done. It is believed even that the firms who intend tendering have not yet sent their communications in to 'the Admiralty. The Diadem, 32, sctew, Capt. Scott, steamed from Spithead into Portsmouth harbour yesterday, to dismantle and pay out of commission. The following appointments were made yester day at the Admiralty :—Captain Francis Scott, C. 8., of the Orlando, to the Diadem,vice Randolph ; Captain George G. Randolph, of the Diadem, to the Orlando, vice Scott; Alfred. Whitehouse, pay master to the Colossus, for shore service; W. P. Carrigan, paymaster, to the Colossus ; Francis D. B. Smith, clerk, to the Madagascar; William Trew, assistant-clerk to the Revenge; and Charles Nicolli, assistant-clerk, to the Victory. THE A.1231Y.

The Ist battalion of the Scots Fusilier Guards arrived at the St. George's, Wellington, and Maga zine Barracks-yesterday from \% indsor. A circular has been received at Chatham from the War Department, stating that the Secretary of State for War has now decided that the cost of transport shall be included in the Engineer Estimates. At stations where commissariat or hired transport has been supplied hitherto the commanding Royal En gineer and the senior commanding offiler will con fer on the subject, and the former will include in his estimates for 1863-64, and in those of future years, the amount which it is considered will be necessary to meet the cost of such transport as will be required by their department for the year. The commanding Royal Engineer will then apportion the total amount among the several items of his estimates, showing the nature and amount of trans port required for each, and including its estimated cost in the estimate for each. He will also give at the end of his estimate an abstract showing the amount proposed for each item on account of trans port and the total amount. The 2d battalion, 21st Regiment, under the com mand of Col. Lowe, arrived at Portsmouth yester day afternoon from Shorncliffe, and embarked on board the steamships Foyle and Lead, for convey ance to Dublin. Yesterday the Army Medical School at Fort Pitt, Chatham, was opened for the fourth session with the usual formalities, in the presence of Major-Gen. E. Eyre, commanding the district. At 1 o'clock upwards of 70 guests assembled in the mess room, where luncheon was served. Among the visitors were :Major-Gen. Eyre, Col. Twiss, Col. Browne, C. 8., Col. CoHinson . , Col. Jackson, Col.
