CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The accounts from some of the textile manufac turing districts for the past week record an in creased business. The woollen trade of Leeds, Bradford, and Halifax has decidedly improved, and most of the manufacturers are working, full time. Business at Manchester has been steady, although prices in some instances have shown less firmness. The hosiery and lace trades at Leicester and Not tingham have been seasonably active. In Ihe hard ware districts, however, viz., at Birmingham, Shef field, and Wolverhampton, there has been little change of importance, the operations having been principally confined to goods suitable for home use. The iron trade of South Staffordshire has continued moderately active, without any change of importance in prices. There is no alteration in the situation of monetary affairs to-day ; the inquiry is s ill too limited to impart activity to the market, and the superabus dant supplies keep down the quotations. The un interrupted influx of gold into the Bank of Eng land strengthens the opinion that extreme easiness will prevail some time longer, and bills having a long period to run are consequently negotiable on exceedingly favourable terms. For ordinary three months' paper the rates still range fully per cent_ below the minimum of the national establishment. Notice has been given that tenders will be received for bills of exchange on India for the sum of 30,000,000 rupees, until the 6th proximo. The Tasmania has arrived from the West Indies with £300,000 in specie. The traffic receipts of the Great Western Rail 'way of Canada, for the week ending the 11th inst., amounted to £8,403 against £6,045 last year. The Australian Trust Company held its half yearly meeting to-day, at which a dividend of 4 per cent. for the past six months was ordered to be Paid. CITY, Two o'CLocK. The half-yearly meeting of the proprietors of the English, Scottish, and Australian Chartered Bank tcok place to day, Mr. J. R. Thomson in the chair. The repert of the directors exhibted a balance of profit for the half-year of £23,062 6s. 9d. The directors proposed to apply the balance of profit as follows, viz. :—To the payment of a dividend at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum, free of income-tax, on £500,000, the paid-up capital of the bank, £15,000. Towards the reduction of the amounts at debit of—Preliminary expenses, £500; bank pre mises and furniture accounts, £1,000; leaving £6,562 6s. 9d., which, with the balance of the xeserved fund, £4,670 6s. Bd., after the deductions mentioned above, will make £11,232 133. sd. at credit on that account. The decision against the bank occasioned a short discussion, after which a motion was submitted and can ied for the adoption of the report, and the necessary order for the pay anent of the dividend was then made. The English Stock Market this morning opened with increased buoyancy, several purchases having led to an additional improvement of a per cent.

Our latest advices from America state that a fair ave rage busi ness was doing in wheat and flour for the eastern trade, at further enhanced rates. Up to our market last week the arrivals of English grain were small. The imports from abroad were 25,892 quarters of wheat, 8,493 barley, 14,443 oats, 2,400 beans, 41 peas. 342 tares, 5,551 linseed, 5,305 rapeseed, 4EO maize, 85 sundry seeds, and 14,711 barrels of flour. There was a very limited show of samples of English wheat here to-day. Both red and white qualities, however, met a slow sale, yet no change took place in prices, com pared with Monday last. Talavera wheat has already been cut in various parts of Essex and Hampshire, and it is very probable that by Monday next harvest work will be in a tolerably forward state in the southern and other forward counties. We did not hear of any new produce being on offer to-day. The show of foreign wheat was moderately extensive. Generally speaking the trade ruled very inactive; never theless, good and fine produce supported last Monday's currency. Floating cargoes of grain moved off slowly on former terms. There was a parcel of new barley on offer, in fair but by no means first-rate condition. It was held at 425. per qr. Of old home-grown barley there was scarcely a sample in the market. Foreign, the supply of which was very mode rate, sold steadily at full prices. The malt trade was steady, and the quotations ruled firm. Oats, owing to the very moderate supply on offer, were firm, and their value was well maintained. Beans end peas were scarce, and both articles realised extreme rates. For flour there was a fair average demand, at full prices. New rapeseed and new carraway were on offer ; the quotation for the former was 70s. per quarter, and for the latter 325. per cwt. The crop of mustard seed is very favourably spoken of. CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MIABInta. Wheat—Essex and Kent, red, new Ditto, old —s Ditto, white, new .. .

The arrival of beasts fresh up from our own grazing districts were favourably extensive ; but th e qua lity of each breed was by no means prime. Notwithstanding that the attendance of buyers was tolerably numerous, the beef trade was in a very inactive state, at a decline on the quotations, compared with Monday last, (I 2d per Sibs, and at which a total clearance was not effected. From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northamptonshire we rect ived 2,350 short horns; from other parts of England 900 various breeds ; from Scotland, 120 Scots and crosses ; and from Ireland, 320 oxen and heifers. With sheep, we were well supplied. Downs and half breeds were in fair request ; but all other breeds moved off slowly, at 2d per 81bs less money , The top figure for mutton was 5s 2d per 81bs, and the general quality of the stock was but middling. The show of lambs was but moderately extensive. Prime breeds sold at last week's currency, otherwise the lamb trade was heavy, and the currencies have a drooping tendency. The top quotation was 6s 4d per 81bs. Calves were in fair average supply, and sluggish re quest, on former terms—viz , from 48 to 5s per Bibs. The pork trade was heavy. In prices, however, no change took place. Per Slb. to sink the offal. s. d. s. d. s. d. s. d. Crse. &inf. beasts 3 0 3 2 !Priteecrs-wool d 0.4 6 4 10 Second quality do. 3 4 3 8; PEtt6.

The programme for Goodwood is as attractive as ever, and, no doubt, if the weather continues good, will attract a large and fashionable gathering. The programme of the meeting, which commences on Tuesday, is of the same ex tent and variety as usual, thirty-two items being set for decision in the four days, which, if numerous entries be any criterion, ought to produce a series of most exciting contests, though there are rai her fewer nominations to the Stewards' and Chesterfield Cups than last year. For the fiat day six of the nine items on the list are closed, and these inc ude the Levant and Ham Stakes for two year olds, the Gratwicke for three year olds, the Three Hundred Soya Sweepstakes for four year olds, and the Stewards' Cup for three year olds and upwards. For the Lavant the fallow ing have been already tried and found wanting :—Golden Dust, Tornado, Tramper, Taje, Event, Duchess of King ston, Brick, and Loise Bonne ; while Escape and Stock broker have performed only indifferently, leaving Soapstone alone with a distinguished character. The latter, having won 300 soya, will have to carry a 31b penalty, which must militate against his chance if opposed by Ace of Hearts (brother to Gaspard), the colt by Daniel O'Rourke out of Odd Trick's dam, for whom Lord Stamford gave 500 guineas at Sir Tatton Sykes's sale last year. The nominations for the Stewards' Cup show a consider able decrease compared with la-t year, no fewer than seven teen. Nevertheless the entry, considering the immense in crease of racing, is most satisfactory, and demonstrates that the popularity of these short spins is by no means on the decline. It is no eisy matter to select the winner out of seventy seven horses; but if I retain Lady Clifden, Vancouver, Ducat, and Ace of Clubs, I do not think I will be far out. The Three Hundred Sovs Sweepstakes will be reduced to a match between Imaus and the colt by West Australian out of Clarissa, and I cannot doubt the success of the former. In the match between Merry Hart and Lady Fanny though the former gives the filly 201 b, I prefer his chance. For Wednesday there are only seven items on the list but as these include the Goodwood Stakes and Derby, the Findon and the Drawing-room Stakes, there will be no lack of interesting contests. The " Stakes," though not the oldest race in the list, being only established in 1825, has nevert heless been for many years regarded with more interest than any other item of the day's sport, on ac count of the heavy wage ing which generally takes place upon it. This year, however, it has been almost a dead letter at the " Corner," and in racing circles generally, which may in a great measure be attributed to the unfavourable criti cism to which the handicap has been subject at the hands of unfriendly racing commentators, who even before there was time to declare the acceptances proclaimed the race a " gift" to either Mr. Ten Broeck or William Day, and who, should either succeed in bearing off the prize, will doubtless sound their own praise as loud as is their wont. The number of acceptances rather astonished these hasty cavil lers, as there were fifty-three "contents" against thirty two' " non -contents"—a result not very astonishing when it is considere•l that Lord Portsmouth's handiwork was three times revised by the authorities that be, and that finally Admiral Rous gave the handicap his hearty approval, The 53 acceptances comprise one aged horse, three six•year olds, eight five year olds, fifteen four year olds, and twenty six three year olds, being relatively much about the same proportion as for the last three or four years; and that the weights from the first have been very fairly apportioned is proved by the fact that since the establishment of the race, 37 years ago, the three year olds have won 11 times, the tour year olds 14 times, and the horses above that age 12 limes; a very equal apportionment, aed which shows how little there is to choose between the various ages. Though the acceptances are more numerous than at any time within the last 11 years, the field will hardly reach a score, as al ready Cape Flyaway, Heniaam Lass, Of timist, Rather High colt, Mistake, Bryn Gwyn, Beneventum, Fee, Umpire, and Drosera have been struck out ; and, since the weights have been published, Coronet, Bal ham, Conundrum, Confectioner, FitzEva,Trapcage, Boab dil, Real Jam, Lapidist, Violet, Magnum Bonum, and Avongrove have run and performed so badly there is little probability of any of the party incurring the expenses of b. trip to Goodwood. The field must consequently be selected from the following : Age st lb , Age sr lb Rapparee ........ 4 9 2 Highflyer Audrey Duleibella Sir William ...... 5 8 2 - chehal lion Zodiac .......... 4 7 9 Watchflre Bevis Frailty .......... 4 7 5 Hartington The Knave 3 7 4 Earl of Westmor Montebello West End 4 7 0 Artaman Canary i elegraph ........ 3 6 10 Dalesman My Partner 3 6 9 Earl of Surrey .... 3 5 7 Lady Evelyn colt.. 3 6 9 Freeholder 3 5 7 Rubicon .. .. 4 6 9 St. Bernard Physician Audrey and Rapparee have both been heavily backed within the last week, the former being now first favourite, and if in anything like her Cesarewitch form, she must be about winning. Rapparee is a good sound horse, but will find the company here too good. Sir William may h e lp to swell the field, but that will be all. Zodiac, if he had a chance at Chester, ought to have one here, but as I had then no faith in the " sign," neither ha, e I now. Bevis has long ado seen his best day, and Henhem Lass is neither bred nor shaped to stay the course. Frailty is not goctd enough to give the lighter weighted three year olds all the weight she has to do. The Knave and Montebello are, in my opinion, handicapped quite out of the race. West End 4 yrs, 7st, cannot complain of his weight, but he is too moderate to succeed in an encounter of this kind. Schism has often, it is said, disappointed her party, but I do not believe she was ever wanted, and I would not be surprised to see her pull through. Canary, 4 yrs. Est 121 b, with such a lenient weight, is bound to at least obtain a place in such moderate company, but I can hardly bring myself to believe that a horse who ran so shifty as he did in the Hunt Cup at Ascot, receiving 361 b from King of Diamonds, and 271 b from Croagh Patrick, can quite pull through. Lady Evelyn colt is no better than Costa, v 4 ho would have no chance here. Rubicon, 4 yrs, Est 9,b, has generally been considered " turned loose," but judged by his performances, I cannot see that he has been too leniently dealt with. Physician has been too long threatening to do a good thing to now do it. flighflyer is, I fear, too slow for this company, though he will stay the course. Myrtle, the last A.merilan importa • A lion, is a good looking filly, but has been knocked out of t h e market within the last two or three days. Queen of Spain was so much out of form in the spring she can hardly have recovered yet. Watchfire must hold a forward place in the fray, as he showed good staying qualities at War wick in the spring, when he ran Loiterer a respectable race at the difference of only 171 b for the two years. His sub • sequent performances were not so good, as he ran no place fur the Northampton Stakes, and was also unplaced in the race won by Brighton at Croxton Park. For the former, however, it was not to be expected that he could beat Stam pede at 291 b for the two years, or Rapparee at 1 ' 4 lb for the year, and at Croxton he made no offer to interfere with his stable companion Brighton. I consequently regard him as having a great chance here. Bosh (brother to Elcho) ran badly last year, and he showed no improvement this, if his running in the City and Suburban was not "all bosh." Hartington (brother to Cavendish), being a Voltigeur, ought to stay, though he has hitherto only tried "short, cuts," in which he was last year successively beaten by Tiara, Queen of Spain (his stable companion), My t'artner, Grisette, Ethel, and Gazelle, and this by Rockley for the Heathcote Plata at Epsom. With Montebello to try with his owner can hardly make a mistake, so backers will have to depend more upon the "state of the odds" than upon anything I can tell them. The Earl of 'Westmore land has only run twice, being last year nowhere to Brahmin, who gave him 81b for the Belsay Castle Nursery at Richmond, and this year no place to his stable companion, Rapparee, for the Thirsk Handicap. Attaman ran a long way very well for the Somersetshire Stakes, giving Caractacus 31b, and carrying within 21b of Dusk. St. Bernard, in beating St. Lawrence at Lincoln on the mile course, giving him 1 Ilh, showed th a t he can run a bit; and as I consider this better than plating form, his opponents will have to look out, or they may find the Saint too many for them. The winner in my opinion i s likely to spring from AUDREY, SCHISM, WATCHEIR E, Or S. BERNARD, s believing that last week's runni ng was not the true form of schismelect (although her p resent price is 100 t O 1), andwill AUDREY or SCHISM to win the Goodwood Stakes of 1E62. The Drawing Room Stakes will be carried off by Q.E.D. Thursday's list extends to eight races, including the Cul ) ; the Molecomb, a n d the Bentinck Memorial Stakes, sil race of importance, thapt ,T. he Cup has much larger eutrY • looking it over I can only ,o go to the starting post : Age st lb Zetlan d Tim Whiffler 3 7 7 Buckenhala .. 3 7 7 Feu de Joie r last year, but after careful' select the following as likely The Wizard Age st lb ...... 5 9 7 Umpire 5 9 0 Fairwater 4 8 10 Highwayman •6 7 13 1 Investment The Wizard only lost the Cup last year by a head, being beaten by Starke, and there are two horses that I think will be before him !big year, viz., Zetland and Fairwater, and as the former beat the latter easily ha the Ascot Cup, he ought to do so again. With regard to Tim Whiffler, I think he has seen his best day. I shall expect the judge to place them in the following order : ZETLAND.................. 1 FAIRWATER .............. 2 THE WIZARD .... 3 The Chesteifield Cup and the other small races will depend on previous running.

THE BOMBAY MAILS. SOUTHAMPTON, MONDAY MORNING. The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steam-- ship Delta, Captain J. Weeks, has arrived, with the heavy portion of these mails, in charge of Mr. F. Whit e , of the General Post-office. On freight she has five packages of specie, value £1,710; 1,296 bales of silk, one case of shawls, 600 bags of wheat, and 163 packages of general merchandise. The Delta left Alexandria on the 15th inst., Malta on the 19th, and Gibraltar on the 23d, and has had fine weather and light breezes all the pas sage. She spoke the following vessels :—J uly 17 the Peninsular and Oriental steamers Massilia and Euxine, steering eastward ; 18th, the barque Quin ton, sailing east ; 20th, the Peninsular and Oriental steamer Pera, steering southward and eastward, and the brig Goshawk, steering westward; 21st, the Orontes, steamer, steering eastward ; 22d, the steamer Ada, steering eastward ; 23d, the Penin sular and Oriental steamer Ripon, steering south ward. Her Majesty's ship Pelican was at Alexandria ; Exmouth, Malacca; Alacrity, Doris, Wanderer, Neptune, Surprise, Trident, and Foxhound at Malta; and the Redpole and Scylla at Gibraltar. The Magicienne left Gibraltar for the eastward on the 17th. The Procris gunboat, having completed her repairs at Malta, was only awaiting her new commander, -Lieut. the Hon. J. B. Vivian, from Corfu, to resume her post at Gibraltar, bringing supernumeraries for Scylla. DISGUSTING CHARGE __AGAINST 'A CLERGYMAN. A painful and disgusting charge has just been brought before the county magistrates at Slough against the Rev. C. Reddall, chaplain of the Slough and Eton Union Workhouse, who had been apprehended on Sunday evening last on a charge of having indecently assaulted Elizabeth Salter, a child of 10 years of age. Mr. C. S. Voules attended on the part of the prisoner, Complainant, an intelligent little girl, deposed that she lived at Slough. Knew Mr: Reddall, and on Sunday last was in the road near the defendant's lodgings, when he called her to come in the golden -gate. She went to him. He then asked her to have some-- Defendant—Some wine. Witness said some wine. The Bench desired the defendant to remain quiet. When he asked me (continued the complainant) to take some wine, I said, No, thank you, sir." Afterwards he asked me to walk into his room, where he kept me about three-quarters of an hour. Defendant—Oh, what a lie! It was about three minutes_ Oh, what base wretches! Oh, what wickedness ! It is a wonder—a marvel—that God, in his wrath, does not lift up His . arm and strike them all dead. Complainant continued—As soon as I went int the room he asked me to sit on his knee ; took me up and kissed me a great many times. He put his hand up my clothes. I tried to get away, but he would not !et me. He pulled me to the sofa, but I got away for a time. He made me sit in a chair, and put his hands up my clothes again. (The wit ness more minutely described the prisoner's con duct, which cannot here be given.) My brother knocked at the door and defendant opened the par tour door. Mrs. Crook came in ; I was crying when she enter ed. He had undone the door before Mrs. Crook came in. Defendant—Oh, I wonder God does not strike hem dead! itness, in reply to Magistrate's Clerk, said he began to undo his trousers. Defendant—Oh, you lying little creature ! oh that wicked woman! (Defendant, who was greatly excited, kept up a running comment of this kind during the time the witnesses were giving their evidences.) _ - Witness proceeded—l left after Mrs. Crook had opened the door. I told my mother and father what had happened as soon as I went home. I have since told Mrs. Crook he took me on his knee as soon as I entered the room, and then did what I have stated. Defendant—Yes; I took her on my knee and put 'my hands by accident at the bottom of her cri noline—just on the knee. (A laugh.) I took no liberties whatever, God knows. Mrs. Crook was then called, but the prisoner ob jected to her evidence, sa3 ing she did not believe in the Bible. The witness said—Thu prisoner came to lodge in my house in May last. On Sunday ;ast the little girl came to the house about six o'clock. Defendant appeared to have seen her before, and sent her to ask her brother to fetch a fly, who returned in half-an-hour and asked for his sister, who I had no idea had remained in the house. On entering the room I observed that the child had been crying. She ran out of the room into the c street. I called upon the child' s mother to i qnire prisoner with the child cried. When I c h arged the with having insulted th e c hi ld he seized me by th throat, so that for some time I could not speak. As soon as I could I ca ll ed out "Murder!" and a neighbour came to my assistance, afterwards cam e an d took the prisoner a T w h a e y. officer Mr. I r onies asked complainant if she did not con sider, from prisoner's general character, that he was occasionally insan e . Witness —Not at all : 'tis brought on and bea s tf u l ways. by drink Defendant's son stated that his father had been in a lunatic asylum, and was discharged uncured. Defendant, after quoting portions of Sriptures, contended that the proceedings were informal, be cause his name had not been properly spelt in the warrant the letter "e" having been substituted for 44 a ;" they consequently had the wrong man altogether. The prisoner was re manded for a week, to enable the magistrates to consult with the Secretary of State in reference to the case. r A PLEASURE BOAT AT SEA ALL NlGHT.—Yes terday afternoon a party consisting tf ~‘ix ladies and six gentlemen, from Hull, put off from Witlaernsea in a plea sure , and, boat, being carried aw ay b y t h e f or ce of wind and tide, they were unable to regain the there, and after pass ing the night at sea, during which time they had fre quently to bale the boat of water, they were picked up this (Friday) morning by a vessel and taken into Burlington, not a little fatigued with their unfortunate ,adveuture.— drfla ,Packit, NENVkJATE AND LEADENHALL. --- Fair average supplies of meat are on sale at these mar kets.

I siPEIiIAL HOUSE OF LORDS —Tins EVENING. ____ ............. The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at five o'clock. MURDER IN BELFAST. Viscount DUNGANNON gave notice that on Friday next he should ask a question of her Majesty's Govern ment, relative to the case of William Heardman, who had been found guilty of murder in Belfast, and recommended o mercy on the ground of insanity. THIRD READINGS. The following bills were read a third time and passed : Wellington and Cheshire Junction Railway—West Riding, Hull, and Grimsby Railway—London and North-Western Railway (Additional Powers)—Eastern Counties Railway (Amalgamation) —and Glasgow Police CIVIL WA tt IN CHINA. Earl GREY rose to move for copies or extracts of any correspondence explaining the arrangements that have been made for permitting officers in the naval and military service of her Majesty to accept employment under the 6,0 N-eminent of China. The noble lord said the subject was one of very considerable importance, and upon whim, it was very desirable some explanation should be made before the present Parliament was pro rogued. The allowing English officers to take part in against the Taepings, implied that a material change in t h e policy of her Maj. styes Government respecting the em pire of China had' taken place, and he for one thought it was very desirable that Parliament and the country should know the extent to which it was proposed to go, and also the reasons which had led to the change, He could not reconcile that step with the avowed intention of Government to observe a strict ths Imperialists in the neutrality between the conflicting parties Surely the assistance that had been afforded to strengthening Ningpo. All the principal fortification s had bren inspected, ano the guns had been laid by Br sub je,.ts, in fact everything had been done for the p e rtlmalists except ihe actual personal , o p po.i ion of British officers against their insurgents. He could not reconcile such art act as one of strict neutrality, and the information he wished to elicit was what change had taken place that had eo al tered the determination of the British Government. He did notthinkour trade in that part of the world could be furthered by the fact of assisting the Imperialists against the incur , gents. On the contrary, he thought the worst effects would arise frlra British interference, and that the restora tion of tranquility would be more remote than ever. [LEFT SPEAKING.] HOUSE OF COMMONS-THIS EVENING. The SPEAKER took the chair at 4 o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Devev Reclamation Bill, the Redditch Railway (Dapital, &c.) Bill, the Dagenham (Thames) Dock Bill, and the Waterford and Passage Railway Bill were read a third time and passed. PETITIONS. Several petitions were presented against the Night Poaching Prev en ti on Bill , the Union Relief Aid Bill, the sale of intoxicating liquors on Sunday, &c, BUSINESS OF THE HOUSE On the motion of Mr. C. FORSTER, returns were ordered relative to the Aittings of the house, the divisions, members of select committees appointed, and the nuMber of private bills introduced during the current session. GOLD COINAGE. On the motion of Mr. Alderman SALOMONS, a return was ordered of the amount of sovereigns and half sove reigns tendered monthly at the Bank of England from the year 1844 to the 31st December, 1861, and the amount of coin which proved too light to, be put into circulation again. THE LAW RELATING TO CRIME Sir J. HAY gave notice that next session he would move for leave to introduce a bill to amend and consolidate the law relat,ng to crime. INDIAN OFFICERS, &c. In reply to Colonel GILPIN, Mr. BARING said that no representation had been made by the Government of India to iaduce her Ma• jes'y's Government to enlarge the • retirement list of Indian ttUcers who are now receiving pay without employment. Some delay had arisen in the Dhar prize money, but the Queen's warrant would shortly be issued for such distribution. FitEE ln reply t o Mr . H. SEYMOITR, NEGROES. Lord PALMERSTON said he regretted to state that Government had received information, from which it ap peared that slaves were conveyed from the port of St. Pawls de Loandi, on the west coast of Afr ca, to the island of St. Thomas, under the pretence that they were free labourers. Her Majesty' s G overnment had remonstrated on the sub ject, and negotiations were still pending; but it would not be advisable at present to lay the correspondence on the table, but they would be submitted to the house next session. The ortuguese and Spanish authorities had disregarded the instructions of their Governments in carrying on this traffic, but her Majesty's Government were at present en deavouring to stimulate the Governments of. Madrid and. Lisbon oil this subject. STATE OF KENSINGTON GARDENS. In reply to Mr. LEWIS, Mr. CO %VPER said that his attention had been drawn to the fact that there bad been an accumulation under some of the trees which could be got rid of by drainage. The trees of the parks were their greatest ornament, and tha. process of drainage would have the effect of removing them, to which be could not consent. The contractor was pro ceeding with the works at the west end of the Serpentine. THE ELECTRIC LIGHT. Lord LOVAINE asked the Presider:v. of the Board bf Trade whether the electric light at Dungeness Lighthouse had not been successful, whether it was intended to adopt it by the Trinity Board in the Portland lights, and moved for the reports of Mr. Faraday and the Trinity Board on the subject? M. GIBSON answered the first question in the affirma tive, and with regard to the second he stated that the subject was under regotiation. He had no objection to lay the reports alluded to on the table. CONSOLIDATED FUND APPROPRIATION BILL. On the order of the day for the third reading of this bill, Sir H. WILLOUGHBY drew the attention of the Go vernment to the cost of the Chinese war, in reference to which he required some explanation. Sir J. ELPHINSTONE made some remarks on the sub ject, in the course of which he denounced the Taepings as a set of lawless brigands with whom no treaty would be binding, and he appealed to the Government not to adopt any course that would tend to injure the commerce of this country with China. Lord R. CECIL deprecated any debate on China. After some remarks from Mr. HANKEY, Mr. PEEL agreed with hon. members that the bill should be printed, and entered into some explanations. Sir H. CAIRNS said that as a portion of the money provided for in this bill was voted for the administration of the law in Ireland, he wished to draw the attention of the Government to the processions that had taken place reecntly in Ireland. Alter s tew words from Mr. HENNE.SEY, Sir R. PEEL said that the processions alluded to did not infringe the Act of Emancipation. In one ease the parks carried green banners, but it was merely because it was a national colour, and not with a view to make a party display. There was no party tune played, and one of the pieces was Brian Boirhome's march. (Laughter.) The right honourable gentleman defended the course of the Government in respect to this matter at some length, and said the object of the Irish executive was to preserve the balance of justice as between both parties in Ireland.
