THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, JULY 1, .1859., to by him, with the name of the person from whom they originated, to the house. Since he had last addressed the house he did not think anything had occurred that would justify their calling to the bar of the house the editor and printer of the Times. (Hear, hear.) He had written to Mr. Dennis, who con filmed the statement attributed to him in the public news• papers, with the exception of the question of the nature of the bribe offered to him, which was that of an appointment and not of a pecuniary character, and some other immaterial alterations. Having read an article which appeared in a local paper to the effect that the offer in ques tion was made through the medium of a lady with which Mr. Gilpin became acquainted with at a watering place, and he concluding by calling on the hon. member to give up the name of the writer. Air. GILPIN said when this subject was brought for ward first, he was asked a question as to a statement which he never made, and a speech he had never made. He stated at the time he could not trace the letter to the agents of the Conservative party. (Hear, hear.) It was not the first time that ladies connected with a .political party had, without authority, exercised themselves in canvassing mem bers and constituencies, but the matter appeared to him so ridiculous that he could not have believed that any mem ber of that house would ask him to give up the name of a lady, and he felt surprised that a gentleman should ask a question which no gentleman could answer. Mr. STANLEY rose to order, as he considered such lan not Parliamentary. Mr. GILPIN said that what he intended to state was, that he was surprised that an honourable member, who was certainly a gentleman, should have asked him a question which a gentleman should not. (Laughter.) He should have been happy, if the house wished it, to give full information as to the con tents of the two letters he had received; but he would tell more respectfully, but, at the same time, emphatically, that if he required him to give up the name of the leader that he would not de so. (Hear, hear.) After some further conversation, the question dropped. THE INDIA LOAN. Mr. CRAWFORD asked the late Secretary of State for India whether he was aware, when he proceeded on Thurs day, the 21st day of April last, to receive and adju dicate upon the tenders invited to be sent in for the Indian loan, of the fact that the Austrian ulti matum to Sardinia bad been mado known to her Majesty's Government on the previous evening by a tele gram from Vienna, and also by a written communication from his Excellency the French Ambassador to the Secre tary of State for Foreign Affairs. Lord STANLEY said that the contracts were completed between twelve and one o'clock, and he did not receive the information until six of the same day. WEEDON COMMISSION. Colonel DUNNE asked the Secretary for War whether the report of the commission appointed to inquire into the state of the Ordnance Department at Weedon, &e., had been received ; and, if received, when it would be laid upon the table of the house. DIVOIIOE AND MATRIMONIAL CAUSES. Mr. E. JAMES asked her Majesty's Attorney-General whether his attention had been called to the large number of causes standing over for hearing in the Divorce and Matrimonial Causes Court, and whether it was the inten tion of the Government during the present session to bring in a bill to remedy the inconvenience ?

Th e arrivals of English wheat, during the week have amounted to 2,280 quarters. Fresh up, to-day, the receipts were trifling ; hence the show of samples was small. Good 8 and fine qualities sold at Monday s currency, b u t th e de- g' mend was by no means active. Low and damp par- SI eels were dull, but not cheaper. Upwards of 20,000 S quarters of foreign wheat having come fresh to hand, the demand for that article was heavy, and peas ruled almost nominal. Floating cargoes were very . dull. There was a moderate business doing in grinding bar ley, but all other kinds were much neglected. We had a dull sale for malt, at barely late rates. Oats, the supply of which was limited, were firm, and is per quarter dearer than last week. In beans and peas very little was doing at late rates. Flour was dull, but not cheaper.

For all kinds of hops there is scarcely any demand, and, to force sales ; lower rates must be submitted to, Sir J. SHELLEY asked the Secretary o of State for War s a t j r e a s t t o ' n s i o t v h e r n respectm ent to o p l vo ted u ra ee the r o views , o o r f w h e ther they would be disposed to supply a sufficient quan tity of arms for practice ? whethert he late Administration Mr. SIDNEY HERBERT said that the Government had taken into consideration the different offers made by various parties with reference to the formation of volunteer corps, and were highly gratified by the public spirit dis played on this subject. The Government had consented to accept their services on certain conditions, namely, that there should be selected in all cases a ground of sufficient range for practice, which should be examined by competent officers ; that their arms should be placed in safe custody ; and that the corps should be under practical military.disci pline. The Government proposed to furnish arms to 25 per cent. of the corps. SEWAGE OF THE METROPOLIS. Mr. J. LOCKE asked the First Commissioner of Works whether the Metropolitan Board had commenced the con struction of low level sewers, for the purpose of preventing the sewage of the metropolis from passing into the river Thames ; or whether, on the contrary, they were merely p roc eeding with high , level sewers, in order to divert the water from brooks and rivulets, and also the rain water, from passing into the river through the present sewers ? Mr. FITZROY said the works in question belonged not to his department, but to the Board of Works, who had been invested with full power in reference to the matter last session. However, ho had communicated with the chair man of that board, who stated to him that the works were proceeding. CONFISCATION IN DUDE. Mr. KINNAIRD asked the Secretary of State for India, whether the proclamation confiscating tbo soil of Oude to the Crown was being acted upon, so that, while the rig h ts of the talookdars have been restored in many instances, those of the peasants were considered' to be forfeited. Sir C. WOOD, who was ve r y indistinctl y heard, Vag un derstood to say that only a few of the estates had been for feited, and not the estates of those talookdars who had pre served their allegiance. THE MILITARY COMMISSIONERS TO THE ALLIED AND AUSTRIAN ARMIES. Mr. T. DUNCOMBE asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, why a return, ordered on the 9th of Juno, relative to the Military Commissioners sent to the head quarters of the French, Sardinian, and Austrian armies, had not been presented ; and whether there was any ob jection to lay upon the table the reports made by those officers up to the present time ? Lord J. RUSSELL considered that it would be highly objectionable to produce the return in question. MANNING THE NAVY. Sir J. PAKINGTON asked the Secretary to the Admi ralty whether it was the intention of her Majesty's Govern ment to bring in any bill during the present session with the view of carrying into effect the recommendations of the Royal Commission on manning the navy ? Lord CLARENCE P /WET said that it was not rea sonable to ask the GOVerTiMellt the present question, con sidering that they had only just entered on their duties. BUSINESS OF THE HOUSE. Lord PALMERSTON moved that upon, Thursday, the 14th inst., and every succeeding Thursday during the pre sent session, Government orders of the day should have precedence of notices of motion. He hoped there would bo no objection to his motion, as it was made at a later period of the session than was usual. He also suggested that when there was not private business to - occupy the house till half-past 4 o'clock, that public busi ness should be proceeded with at a quarter past 4 o'clock' —Agreed to. MR. CHARLES GILPIN. On the motion for the adjournment of the house till Monday, Mr. STANLEY called the attention of the house to the statement made by Mr. Dennis at a public meeting a the electors of iorthampton, that an offer had been made to Mr. Gilpin by the agents of the late Government to influ ence Ili f; vote in Parliament ; and called upon the Secretary of the Poor Law Board to communicate the letters referred COLONIAL.

Tlis Postmaster-General thinks it right to make known to the public that, according to information which has been officially communicated to this office, it is forbidden to introduce into Russia, through the post, political news papers, in covers open at the ends or sides ; and that the only means by which persons residing in Russia can obtain newspapers from the United Kingdom is by subscribing for them at one of the Russian Post-offices. It appears, further, that the admission into Russia of newspapers not of a political character, is only permitted in those cases where they are addressed to the house of some established bookseller. Printed prices current, however, as well as printed cir. culars, in covers open at the ends or sides, are allowed to be addressed to any persons residing in Russia. In all cases where the above-mentioned printed papers are allowed to circulate by the post, they are chargeable in Russia with a foreign rate of postage, in addition to the rate chargeable on their being posted in this country.

MINISTERIAL EXPLANATIONS. Earl GRANVILLE then rose and said—Your lordships are already aware, from what fell from the noble earl oppo site on Monday week last, of the reasons which induced her Majesty's late Government to take the constitutional course of resigning their offices. I then received the great and un expected honour of being commanded by her Majesty to at tempt to form an Administration. There is no one in this house more sensible of the insufficiency of my own abilities for that task, but I was determined that having once under taken it, no diffidence of mine should prevent me persever ing with it as long as I thought any public utility could arise from my efforts. But as soon as I found that a better and a stronger arrangement might be made, I at once re quested her Majesty to absolve me from the office. That the resignation of it relieved me from a sense of great per sonal responsibility your lordships will readily believe, and I gave it up with feelings of loyal gratitude to my Sovereign and deep respect for those public men with whom I had oc casion to communicate. Since that tires Lord Palmerston has formed an Administration. I have heard two noble earls de scribe in this house the labour and anxiety of forming an Administration, and certainly the personal relief which I myself had experienced in giving up the task was increased by closely watching the anxiety which Lord Palmerston ex perienced during the performance of his task, and especially from not being able to include in his Administration those old friends for whose character and abilities he felt such deep respect, and on whose long tried services he set such high value. He has himself assured me, however, that that feeling was much diminished by universally finding that those with whom he communicated had expressed the most unselfish desire to postpone their own personal objects to the advantage of the public service. The Government which. Lord Palmerston has formed is of a comprehensive character. It comprehends men who, by their past political services and by their high character, have some claim to the confidence of the country. At the same time my colleagues and myself feel that it is not upon any past services that we can rely, and that we can only hope for support from Parliament and from the country by the manner in which both our home and our foreign affairs are administered. With regard to home affairs, I may ob serve that the arrangement of the finances will be a task of no inconsiderable difficulty. Although there is no decided ground for alarm in the country with respect to the finances, yet their arrangement will require some skill, some honesty, and good sense on the part of the Government; and I have no doubt the efforts of the Government will meet with public spirit and good sense on the part of the country. It will be the duty of her Majesty's Government to introduce measures with regard to Law reform and other subjects. There is one question of special importance—namely, the improvement of the representation of the people in the House of Commons. It would be difficult to deal with that question at once. Public opinion has no doubt been very _ much formed and brought to a point on that question by the debates and discussions which have recently taken place, and the disposition in this country at all times to make con cessions as to measures of degree gives reason to hope that these discussions will make it less difficult at some future time to settle that question. But I believe that to attempt to settle it in this session would be to trifle with it. Several weeks have been frittered away and lost for the purposes of legislation since the time at which her Majesty's late Go vernment introduced their Reform Bill. The budget, the questions with regard to expenditure which have yet to be brought before the House of Commons, and some legislation of a miner character make it almost impossible to hope that a Reform Bill could be passed through the other House o Parliament during the present session. And even if i could be passed through the other house I am quite sure your lordships would feel that you were treated with a great want of respect if you were asked to consider a mea sure of so much importance as that at a time when it was utterly impossible to expect a full attsndance in this.house. Therefore, with regard to the question of Parliamentary Reform, I have only to state that while it is one of the subjects which will engage the most anxious consideration of her Majesty's Government, they will think it both their duty and their privilege to bring it before Parliament as soon as Parliament shall meet again. There is another subject connected with home affairs which greatly occupies public attention at this moment. I allude to the national defences. (Hear, hear.) There have been rumours of an unfounded character with regard to the intentions of the Government as to the national defences. I am happy to say that the notice which my noble and learned friend (Lord Brougham) has given of asking a question on that subject to-morrow will give an early opportunity to her Majesty's Government of stating what are their inten tions. Her Majesty's Government think that this country should be in a proper state of defence. (Cheers.) There is nothing more deplorable than the system of all the great European nations arming one against another, spending their money in great armies and great fleets—(hear, hear) — driving each other into useless expenditure, and taking away from the productive labour of the respective countries. (Hear, hear.) But this is a question that cannot be settled by one nation alone. This country is not so separate com mercially or politically, or, I will add, geographically, from the other parts of Europe as to justifly this, one of the most powerful and most wealthy of nations, in not making a proper expenditure, not only to place it in a proper state of defence against invasion, as to which I see no possible ground for alarm--(cheers)—but also to make an invasion of it an impossibility—(cheers)—and to place it in that posi tion in which it ought to be when the time comes for diplomatic arrangements. I think it would be quite out of place for me to go back into the grounds or occa sions of the war in Italy. That war will engage the first and most serious consideration of her Majesty's Go vernment. The great difficulty with regard to our foreign affairs at this moment appears to me to be the avoiding any false step which might entail fatal consequences upon Europe and upon this country. It has been the opinion of all the statesmen of both parties, both those connected with the late Government and those connected with this side of the house, and it is certainly the opinion of the great majority of the people of this country, that it is the duty of her Majesty's Govern ment to maintain a strict and bona fide neutrality with re ference to the war in Italy—to use every endeavour tols_eg this country out of war, but at t he same time, if potsjble and as early as possible, to restore peace to Europe. e e , hear.) I think your lordships will agree also that th pin r b both the bellige propositions which perhaps one or pro ably , w way of doing so would not be by early meddling or making that the first fa fully and considerately, and taking car scope them of taking a vourable opportunity should not e rent parties would refuse to accept, bu e t 1; aching care may be likely to ing their influence, or who Powrs, to in s ure not only statesmanlike view of the atctNuvaleste o e f t t ill hin be _gse te au r d t b h rm' e co gs operation of the other European lead to peace for the future—arrangements not unjust to any of the parties, and consulting as m uch possible the posi tions of the countries between whom this war is now raging. present peace, but arrangementswhich il ntention on a previous occa (Hear, hear.)

(Cheers.) After a few words from Lord Buousins,m, which did not reach the gallery, The Duke of RUTLAND said he was glad to hear from the noble earl that het Majesty's Government intended to maintain a strict and bona fuk neutrality with reference to the war in ',ltaly, but he could not help calling to mind a statement made by the noble lord the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, in which he represented that the war was greatly owing to one Power, and that that one Power was Austria. That statement was not borne out by the facts of the case, and was not in accordance with a strict and bona ftd,e neutrality. (Hear.) He thought that the war was not owing in the first instance to Austria, d , n r the Emperor of the French , b ut was owing to Sar (Hear, hear.)

Lord STRATFORD DE RBDCLIFFE said he in tended to bring forward his motion to-morrow week instead of on Friday fortnight. The Duke of RUTLAND said he was anxious, at all events t o take this opportunity of thanking his noble frien d (the Earl of Malmesbury) for.the moderation and patience, co mbined with zeal and ability, which he had displayed in his endeavours to maintain the peace of Europe. (Cheers.) Though unfortunately his noble friend was not successful in the object, he did succeed in maintaining a strict emd im partial neutrality and keeping England free from the horrors of war. (Hear.) It was at the moment when the three Powers engaged in deadly conflict, and when no one could tell on what shore the next wave of war would break, that the Opposition felt it their duty to turn out the late Government, not because they did not fully . and impartially represent the feelings of the country, but in order that tio C.- - ' Or ion ; :nosh ,cuts
