FORTESCUE, in reply to Colonel French, said it was not without full consideration that the embodi ment of the Irish militia for training had been postponed for another year. THE CASE OF MR. CAGNELLS. Mr. WINTERBOT HAI/ askid the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs a question relative to the case of fr. James Caguells, a British subject, residing and carry ing on business at Oporto, sentenced in November last by a Portuguese Court to banishment for six years, for the crime of "wanting in respect to the Roman Catholic reli gion," such want of respect consisting only in conducting ordinary Protestant service in his own house. Mr. OTWAY said it was quite true that the gentleman named had been banished for a term of six years, but not solely for wanting in respect to the Roman Catholic reli gion. Mr Cagnells was put upon his trial in Oporto before a Portuguese jury, he having given up his right to be tried by a mixed one ; and the charges laid against him was for holding meetings in his house for objects opposed to the religion of the country, for inducing persons to hold doc trines opposed to the religion of the State and for making proselytes. The charges, to an extent, were proved, and under the 130th section of the criminal code he was sen tenced to six years' banishment from the country. An appeal had been lodged against the finding of the jury, and until that appeal was decided he did not think it judi cious to make any further observation. lie might inform the lion. member thlt Mr. Crawford, the Consul at Oporto had been directed to watch the case. THE RATE-PAYING CLAUSES. Mr. C. FORSTER asked the First Lord of the Trea sury whether it was the intention of the Croverntnent to repeal the rate-paying clauses of the &form Act, and to restore the system of compound rating ? Mr. GLADSTONE said he could not answer the ques tion of the hon. gentleman, without in some degree antici pating the statem.mt to be made by the President of the Poor Law Board. He might, however, say that the Go vernment did not propose to restore in letter and in form compound rating, but in the bill of his right hon. friend there would be found a remedy for the grievance which at present existed. • THE CHARING CROSS VIADUCT. Lord ELCIIO called the attention of the First Commis sioner of Works to the proposed viaduct from Charing cross to Wellington street, Strand, which was proposed to be made on the Thames Embankment by the Metrcpo litm Board of Works. The Board had given instructions with respect to the commencement of the works, and he therefore had to ask the right honourable gentle man to exert his power to stay proceedings, at all events for a time, until it was seen that the thorough fare was actually required. The site of the Thames em bankment affords the finest site in the world for some pub lic building, and it was inconceivable that so eligible s spot should be devoted to a long row of unsightly arches upon which the proposed road was to be made. He thought it was absolutely necessary that same greater power than at present existed should be given to somebody to prevent further monstrosities being made in London. At present a set of people had only to got an Act of Parlia ment to make a railway, for instanca, from north to south of the metropolis, then they were quite at liberty to pull down, an I block up, and erect any bridges they might think necessary without the slightest regard being made to the damage that would be done to the property in the neighbourhood. Had there b•en any such control ling power ho believed the great tubular ne,mstrosity— the Cannon-street station would never have bee," allowed to thrust itself so hideously in front of the view of St. Paul's from the river. He found he could not by the forms of the house propose the resolution ha had prepared, which stated that it was not expedient to proceed with the proposed road, but he hoped the right hon. gentleman would take up the matter and submit a resolution to the house on Mond.ty next. Mr. C. BUXTON thought that as everybody disap proved of the proposed viaduct it would not be perse vered in. Lord BURY said that it was most desirable that any sort of controlling power would be better than the anarchy that now existed. No sooner was the work of Sir J. Thwaites finished, than a railway company would begin to dig up and otherwise obstruct the footway, so that for about five years the public would be kept out of the full enjoyment of the splendid promenade. Mr. LAYARD said unfortunately he hal nothing to do with the Thames Embankment; all he could do he would do, and that would be to urge upon Sir John Thwaites to do his utmost to prevent a project which would entirely destroy the beauty of the embankment which was now so great an ornament to the metropolis. The most effectual way of stopping the pro ceedings would be for the house to express a strong opinion as to the inadvisability of proceeding with the proposed viaduct. Mr. W. COWPER said if the Metropolitan Board of Works were in earnest in objecting to the proposed viaduct it was quite open to them to have introduced a bill for repealing the previous act. Mr. ROPE said how the bill passed that allowed such an objectionable work was to him quite a mystery. Mr. B. HOPE drew from the transaction the moral that we needed a really strong Ministry of Public Works and Art ; and the discussion was closed by a notice from Lord Eleho that he would move fora committee on the subject next Thesday. Mr. FAWCETT brought in a bill embodying his clause' so stoutly fought in the debates on the Election Petitions Bill last year, to throw the necessary expenses of elections on the county or borough, and Mr. NOR WOOD brought in a bill further to facilitate the proceedings in County Courts. The house adjourned at 25 minutes past 6 o'clock. COURSE OF EXCHANGE—Last Evening.

M. ; the diffe rence, or the sum laid by—viz., £134,811 14s. 9d.—raises the fund again to £907,552 Bs. 6d. Tho interest received during the year is £117,584 7s. 3d., arising from the productive portion of the realised assets of £2,897,157, mentioned in the last year's report. The whole assets, productive and unproductive, may there fore be considered as having improved at the rate of rather more than 4 per cent. ; or, if the profit shown of £46,070 13s. 3d., derived from various extraneous sources, be in cluded, at upwards of £sl2s. per cent. The premiums on new assurances are £14,596 ls. 9d., and of this sum £3,270 los. 4d. has been expended in re assurances. The claims on decease of lives assured are nearly iden tical in amount with those of 1866. They are less than those of last year by nearly £19,000. A considerable reduction, too, appears in the amount o f premiums paid for re-assurance, many of the risks re-assured pe h n a se v s m o g f in t e a r n m ag i n e a m te e d n t b a y r e d elaetshs t a h n a d n o t t h h o e se r ca o fu last year yeTarhbeyexupwards of £1,400.
