(ived A Doctors' Commons, April 12, 1858. My Lord,—We are honoured with your Lordship's com mands, signified in Mr. Hammond's letter of the 25th March ultimo, stating that he was directed to request that we would report to your Lordship our opinion whether, under the circumstances of the case, as set forth in the correspondence respecting the capture of the " Cagliari," now submitted to us, her Majesty's Government would be justified in making any, and what, demand upon the Nea politan Government in respect to the conduct of that Government towards the British subjects, Park and Watt. In obedience to your Lordship's commands, we have the honour to report That we are of opinion that, under the circumstances of the cam, her Majesty's Government would be justified ionr Park making a demand upon the Neapolitan Government f compensation to be awarded to the Briti sh en g ineers, end Watt, in respect of the conduct of that Government towards those persons. It appears to us that Park and Watt acted throughout within the strict lino of their duty, and took no part whatsoever in any illegal or criminal There is not, as far as we areaadreergn or act. to be found, even at this late period, throug hout these voluminous papers, a Particle of evidence of misconduct or impropriety apinst either of them. In order to justify the Neapolitan Government for its continued i m prisonment of these men , and for putting them on their trial for their lives, there should have been, at least, pr ima facie evidence of their participation in soma of the offences committed by some of those on board the C The Neapolitan Government has, in' effect, admitted that mere presence on board was not of itself a sufficient ground for the institution of criminal proceedings ; inas much as it set at lib.rty seven of the passengers on the 28th August, 1857, and eleven of the crew on the 23th October, 1857. The Neapolitan Government must, therefore, seek its justification for its conduct towards Park and Watt in the sots charged against them in the " Atto di Iccusa." These, apparently, are the following : -- 1. That they were without regular passports ("ricapiti"). To this it may be sufficient to observe that it appears not to be unusual for engineers of Sardinian steam-vessels leaving Genoa to be without passports ; their names weTe on the ship's muster-roll, and they were in the regular employment of the owners of the Cagliari ; but, at all events, the Neapolitan Government cannot infer any seri ous guilt from the mere want of passports. 2. The note found upon Park, alleged to have been written by Miss White at Genoa. This note,ion the face of it, pur ports to be addressed not to an accomplice, but rather to a person who was to be forced to act under constraint ; it iv neither signed nor addressed ; it was only presented to Park when the vessel was forcibly seized by some of the 133 sengers ; an I the circumstance that Park preserved and transcribe I it into his log-book, as his justification, is a proof, not of his guilt, but of his innocence in relation to it. . 3. That Watt (as chief engineer) ought to have directed the vessel's course to Tunis, and not to Ponza. This charge, roceeding, as it does, from total ignorance of the con struction and navigation of steam vessels, is not worthy of serious refutation. 4. Of participation in various specified acts at Ponza and at Sapri. Of these it is sufficient to observe that, even if they were of such a nature as to render Park and Watt amenable to a Neapolitan tribunal in respect of their com mission (which we can by no means admit), we are unable to discover that any evidence has ever been forthcoming to prove that Park and Watt committed any of them; indeed, as to the meat of them, their innocence must have been obvious, it being admitted in the " Atto di Accnse" that they remained on board throughout, whereas these acts are charged to have been committed on shore. For these reasons we are of opinion that there is no ground whatever which justifies the Neapolitan Govern ment in having subjected Park and Watt to this prosecu tion, or in having inflicted upon them, as malefactors of the worst class, a long and inhuman imprisonment. The Neapolitan Government, upon the capture of the Cagliari and the arrest of all those who had ever been on board her with their papers, was in possession of the fullest information as to the guilt or innocence of each inlividual; and we are of opinion that thereupon Park and Watt became entitled, as a right, to immediate liberation.—We have, etc., (Signed) J. D. HARDING. FITZROY KELLY. H. M. CAIRNS. No. 2. The Advocate and Solicitor-General to the Earl of Malmes bury.—(Received April 15.) Doctors' Commoes, April 13, 1853. My Lord,—We are honoured with your Lordship's com mands, signified in Mr. Hammon l's letter of the 25th March ultimo, stating that he was directed to transmit to us the correspondence respecting the capture, imprison ment, and trial, by the Neapolitan Government, of two British subjects, servieg as engineers on board the Sardi nian merchant-steamer " Cagliari," together with a copy of the indictment preferred against them, and a volume entitled " Sulla Precis del Cagliari," published by the Ne apolitan Government, and a further volume, entitled, " Difesa del Cagliari," published by the owners of the ves sel ; he also stated that the proceedings in the Admiralty Court at Naples would be sent as soon as printed. Mr. Hammond was also pleased to request that we would take these papers into our immediate consideration, and report to your lordship our opitdon whether the cap ture of the Cagliari was legal. In obedience to your lordship's commands we have taken these papers into consideration, and have the honour to report— That we have carefully perused these voluminous papers, and have considered them in consultation with the Atter ney-General, but that as we are unable to concur entirely in the conclusion at which we b,lieve he has arrived, we have thought it best to express to your lordship our opin ion in the following Report. In dealing with this question, we have confined our at tention to the capture of the Cagliari exclusively, and in dependently both of the legal proceedings against that ves sel, which ended in her condemnation as a prize, and of the treatment of those on board her, We would, in the first place, invite your lordship's at tention to the facts preceding, this capture. The Cagliari, a Serdiniae merchant steamer, running between Ge oe and Tunis (touching at Cagliari, in Ser dieia), left Genoa, on one of her regular voyages, on the 25th of June, 1857, with, apparently, thirty-three pa?sen gere anti a crew cc:mils:log of thi r ty-t wo , an l a cargo partly consisting of tire-arms. Whilst on the high seas on the same evening about 25 of her passenger s rdelenly produced concealed arms , t oo k foretbleposseseion of the ship, with out any opposition being offered, hi o'ce bulk and plundered arms on board, deprived the master of his authority, and placed him, and some o f th e ot h er passengers any crew, under restraint, and forced (as is allege,l) one cf the passen gers (Daneri, a merchant c a pt a i n b y profession), to navi gate the vessel as master. The Cagliari passed what was supp sed to be a squadron of British ships of war, when the passengers and crew under restraint were more closely watched, and kept out of sight. On the 27th of June the Cagliari arrived at the islan l of Ponze, which appears to be a fortress aed prison of the Neapolitan Government; the Sardinian eelour were fly ing, a ad t he pi lot and cep tam of the port were seized on their c.eniog on board; the boats were landed, an armed disembarkation took place, an attack was read° en the island, one Neapolitan officer of the garrison killed, another wounded, the getri on o verpowered, up- wards of 300 prisoners liberate I and arm ed, arms, rammu nition, and money were taken fr,ln the fortress, a ,‘,3 al Neapolitan cn.ter or cruizer lying in the bar bour of Forme was borrded, pl u nder e d, an i sunk, and other crimes_v and excesses were c o mmitted. Some of the crow appear to h lauded. Lorenzo Acqusrone, whose name is on the ship's muster-emit as a waiter or steward, and Cesare Cori, a pas ten"eer, seem to have been wounded on shore, and brought back to the steamer. With this additional armed force, and with the plunder, the Cagliari proceeded, on the night of the 97th, to the Policastro. Those passengers who had originally seized the ship, together with the prisoner* liberated and em barked at Ponza, landed in arms at Sapri early in the morning of the 2ith, and committed various acts of out rage and hostility ou where, where they were, aeon after wards, all killed, or taken by the Neapolitan troops and inhabitants. The crew, acting, probably, under compulsion, appear to have rowed the boats in which the landing at Ponza and that at Sapri were effected. After landing at Sapri, the master (Sitzia) appears, after the disembarkation, and, on the night of the 28th, to have resumed his authority; and, with the assent of the crew, and 11 remaining passengers (amongst whom was Daneri), • to have got under weigh, and taken a °cameos for Naples, where (as he stated) it was his intention to make a detailed relation of what had occurred to the Neapolitan Govern ment. _ During these occurrences the Neapolitan Government, which had early intellig e nc e of the attack o n Penn, tool • measures not only to check the aggression, but to pursue and capture all those engaged in it. Some steam-frigates were sent from Naples to Gaeta to embark troops, and . two cruizers (the Tancredi and Ettore Fi eamoses), sailing in company, and in search of the Cagliari (of which vessel's appearance and course, when last seen, the commanding ' officer had previously received a description), fell in with her on the morning of the 29th of June, on the high Ga seas, apparently about twelve miles we s t of Capri. g . Hari was, when first seen, steering towards them ; and, on the vessel approaching, the Tancredi fired a shot, which brought her to; the master (Sitzia) was ordered on boar,i the Tancredi, with his papers, and the Cagliari was then . boarded and taken possession of by an armed boat from the Tancredi, and towed, by the Ettore Fieramosca in com pany, first to Salerno, and thence to Naples. When the Cagliari was brought to, it appears that she was not taking that which it is alleged would have Veen her most direct and shortest course to Naples, viz., *trough the straits between Capri and the mainland (" piccolo %made Ca Capri"). Three wounded men were on board, Zeeiz r .,._Acquarone and Cori already mentioned, and Amil by _Buonomo, a passenger, wounded at Sapri, as he allege s, r :tr e o n se .a w a n d o landed, on his refesal to land ; bulk was art of the cargo (arms) missing; arms were lagozniestonugn.dytollwa ea, on board ; twenty-five passengers were recently saknown to the captors that she had been aril the employed ITI acts of piracy and unauthorised hos tility, all events, not exp l anations eeca offered by the captain were, at ore ience. We must tomn.and and immediate :emark that some important ship's papers, amongst also which were the certificate of ownership, and the maritime passport , were wanting ; and although this would not justify piion the capture, it would add to the other grounds of BUR presenting themselves to the captors. Giuseppe Mercurio, who was on th e s hi p ' s muster-roll (a steward or waiter ) , a and been wounded , and taken , in arms , on tnse have land e d, he if so, he must ha ve-been missin g at the capture. e at Sapri; • Under these circumstances, and bearing in mind the an whole of the facts, we are of opinion that. the Neapolitan comm anding officer was ju stified in takin g possession i of i the Cagliari, a nd in taking her into Naples (wh ere s h e war in fact goin g ), in order to sec ure a f ull i n v estieati , n of what really had occu -red on bean!.

THE AUSTRALIAN CLIPPER JAIIIES BAINES DESTROY ED BY FIRE. LIVERPOOL, THURSDAY. This morning, at six o'clock, the stevadores having removed the hatches to continue the dis charge of cargo of the James Baines, that beautiful and celebrated clipper ship, which was an honour to the port of Liverpool, and a distinction to her owners, was discovered to he on the. No sooner were the hatches taken off than considerable vo lumes of smoke were seen to issue from the after part of the mainhold, and soon the flames were seen to assume a menacing appearance, which, not withstanding every exertion by tho employes of James Baines and Co., by the fire brigade under the able superintendence of Mr. Hewitt, with the co-operation of every officer and man of the great Cunard Elia, has resulted in the total destruction of the ship. As soon as the news of the accident reached town several fire-engines were despatched, including that of the West of England ; and by half-past 10 a.m. there were six fire-engines playing on the vessel from the docks on the east side, and two from flats stationed on the western quarter, including that of the Cunard Company. At an early hour the ship was scuttled, in order that she might fill with water from the dock ; but we regret to say that this mea sure was as ineffectual as the immense mass of water poured into her from so many engines to sub due the flames. Indeed, about 10 o'clock, the vessel being aground, the water poured out through the scuttles as rapidly as it entered from above. The James Baines, it will be remembered, left Liverpool on the Bth of August las'a having on board, 1,037 men of the 97th and 42nd High landers, for Calcutta, whom she landed in safety, after a rapid passage. She arrived again in the Mersey from Calcutta, with a full cargo of Indian produce, consisting of jute, hemp, linseed, and rice. On Sunday the vessel was docked, and on Monday the work of discharging was begun. At first the fire was confined to the after-hold, but with a cargo so inflammable that limitation was not continued, and the smoke soon poured from the main and lore-holds, and at half-past eleven the smoke was coming in dense volumes from the cabin house and even from the stern windows, while, although no flames were vigible, there was no doubt that the cargo was being rapidly con sumed. The fire in the fore-hold was then, how ever, rapidly lessening, and large quantitiss of water were being clisZarged about the main and after masts, which manifested symptoms of going by the board. The Tiggimg was fast unfixing, and the yards were being lowered over the side, so as to ease the fall as much as possible. As the day wore on the work of destruction ad vanced, and by two o'clock the vessel was a sheet of flame from st.nn to stern, and the main and mizen masts had both fallen, crashing through the roof of the strongly-built sheds along the dock. At half-past three the foremast also gave way, greatly damaging that portion of the shed upon which it fell. The interior of the vessel was one mass of fire, and, at the despatch of this parcel, the ship is steadily burning down to the water, the depth of which in the dock is unfortunately only 2L feet. The Gothenburg, from New Orleans, in the Sandon Graving Dock, some 100 yards im the burning vessel, had a narrow escape. Fragments of the burning mass were thrown over her, some of which set firs to her sails. However, by the promptitude of her crow the flames were ex tinguished. The James Baines is stated to be uninsured ; but whether her cargo be so or not is difficult to tell, belonging as it does to many parties. Major Greig was early on board, and Mr. Men del, of the Mersey Board, and a number of gentle men connected with shipping and mercantile affairs were present, manifesting their deep sympathy in what is alm - st a public loss. Among theme having consignments of cargo, we heard reported Whittaker, Whitehead and 3,400 bags linseed, valued at 3,5001., and 4,100 do. rice, value 2,400/. Lltledale and Co. are also large holders of cargo ; b-ut we cannot thus early state the contents or owners more specifically. As soon as the fire took head the vessels adjacent were removed out of the neighbourhood, and the procantions used, as well as the happy circumstance that the wind is low, afford almost assurance that the fire will be confined to the hull. There seems every reason to suppose that the fire originated in spontaneous combustion. Country Markets. NEWARK—AparL 21. This clay's market was very well attended, and a large supply of grain of all sorts. Wheat met with a flat sale, at is to 2s under previous rates. Wheat, white 41s to 4"s, red 40s to 465; barley, malting 40s to 425, grinding 34s to 365; oats, 12st. 28a to 32e, 26s to 283; beans, 40s to 43s ; malt, 66s to 72s ; peas, 40.3 to 42s ; tares, —s to —s per qr. GLASGOW—APRIL 21. There was but a very moderate trade to-day in wheat, at a decline of 61 per boll on the prices of last market day. Flour lost the advance then quoted of 6d per boll. and Gd to is per sack. Barley and oats realised the last week's extreme rates. Oatmeal, Gd to Is per load over previous rates. Beans unaltered. LOCA Sll A :7E MAR /1 - Tl. ting acts of this nature was undisputed, and the question of the guilt or innocence of all or any of those persons then on board was, in our opinion, to all appearance in volved in so much doubt, that the captors could not be fairly expected to liberate the ship and those on board without further inquiry. By the acts which had been committed by those on board of the Cagliari, her Sardinian national character had been lost or suspended, at all events whilst the wrong doers (whoever they might be) retained actual possession and control of her ; and the circumstance that the master, and those on board at the time of the capture, might ulti mately turn out to be innocent, would not, in our opinion, render the capture illegal by international law. We forbear from enlarging upon the serious B 'n om time State, and to none more than Great la ,fr conse quences which woald, in our opiaion res ult to every marl being held that nothing sh ort of complete tlheo mm r gal po c of its t o f f guilt or the actual commis sion of crime, a n o capture, will j estify a na tional ship of war in capturing a vessel under such c i rc umstances as I asithof such a doctrine seinwhichthe Cag liari was captured by the Tancredi. If prevail, pirates need only obtain possession of a vessel en titled to a flag and papers in order to secure perfect th e high seas, in place of being the secure f nations, will become the asylum of wrong impunity highway o; doers, and the flag and papers of any nation may ba wrong fully used to the irremediable injury of every other. Great Britain can put forward no claim, and can make no demand in this case which she is not prepared to con cede to Naples or to any other recognised Government, however weak or barbarous ; and we are of opinion that had the British, instead of the Neapolitan coast, been the scene of the occurrences now in question, any British naval officers, placed in the same position as the Neapolitan offi cer commanding the Tancredi, would not have exceeded his duty or been guilty of an international offence by cap turing and bringing into port a vessel found under the same circumstances as the Cagliari." We are, therefore, of opinion that the capture of the Cagliari was illegal. We must, however, add that we are unable to see any ground whatever upon which the condemnation of the Cagliari as prize can be supported. We have, &c., (Signed) J. D. FIARDING. H. M. CAIRNS. No. 3. The Attorney-General to the Earl of Malmesbury.— (Received April 19.) Temple, April 17, 1858. My Lord,—l was favoured with your lordship's com mands signified in Mr. Hammond's letter of the 25th March ultimo, in which he stated that he was directed by your lordship to transmit therewith the correspondence respecting the capture, imprisonment, and trial by the Neapolitan Government of two British subjects serving as engineers on board the Sardinian merchant-steamer Cagli ari ; together with a copy of the indictment preferred against them, and a volume entitled " Sulla Preda del Cagliari," published by the Neapolitan Government, and a further volume entitled " Difesa del Cagliari," published by the owners of the vessel. Mr. Hammond also stated that he was to request that I would, together with the Queen's Advocate and the Soli citor-General, take the papers into consideration, and re port to your lordship my opinion whether the capture of the Cagliari was legal. In obedience to your lordship's commands, I have taken the papers into consideration, and have the honour to report— That, lamenting the difference which exists between myself and the other law officers of the Crown, my clear and decided opinion is, that the capture of the Cagliari was contrary to the law of nations. Circumstances invest this case with extraordinary im portance, but it does not appear to me that they present any peculiar difficulty as to the facts or as to the law upon which the question now submitted arises. The punted papers of the Neapolitan Government before me are indeed voluminous ; but though they overlay, they cannot effectually disguise, much less alter, the simplicity of the issue to be determined. It appears that in the case of the Cagliari the main facts are undisputed ; and the proposition of international law which ap lies to them is elementary, and has been hitherto uncontroverted. The main facts are 1. That at tha time of the capture of the Cagliari, pa cific relations subsisted between Sardinia and the Two Sicilies. 2. That the Cagliari was a private merehant-vessel, well known to the captors as belongir“, on accountof her oc cupations, in a marked and speciai manner to the Com mercial Marine of Sardinia. _ 3. That under force and duress she had been oompelled to land convicts and rebels upon the Neapolitan coast. 4. That at the time of her capture she was neither de facto nor de jure, piratic lly employed. 5. That she was seized upon the high seas, within no territorial juris fiction, after a display of force, and the menace of a shot fired at her by a ship of war belonging to the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies. - I have said that these facts are uncontroverted, and such is in truth their character; but it may be well to notice in this place a suggestion—it is scarcely more—than the " Cagliari " voluntarily surrendered herself. It is in the first place clear, that the international right of a State cannot be abrogated by the act of an individual subject. But in the second place, the notion of a voluntary surrender on the part of a merchant vessel, because she obeyed the orders of a ship of war which had fired at her and taken her in tow, as in the present instance, by an armed boat, is really unworthy of any serious comment. It is, to borrow the expression of the late Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs (page 68, No. 7i, of the papers laid before Parlia ment), a mockery. Taking, then, these main facts as incontrovertible, and practically uncontroverted, it remains to state the prinei plea of international law by which they are governed ; and it is expedient to observe that no question arises as to what might be the principles of this law. Whether they could be precisely the same, or in any or what degree modified, or wholly different., in the case of a vessel seized after a pur suit, beginning in territorial waters, and from which pur suit, so begun, the pursued vessel had escaped ; or in the case of a vessel seized within territorial waters of the captor. Having reference, then, to the facts of the present case, the propositions of international law applicable to them appear to me the following :- 1. That the merchant vessels of every State on the high seas are subject to the jurisdiction of the State to which they belong. " All nations," says Lord Stowell,* " being equal, all have an equal right to the uninterrupted use of the unap propriated parts of the ocean for their navigation. Li places where no local authority exists, where the subjects of all States meet upon a footing of entire equality and independence, no one State, or any of its subjects, has a right to assume or exercise authority over the subjects of another. I c•an find no ..uthority that gives the right of interruption to the navigation of States in amity upon the high seas, excepting that which the rights of war give to both belligerents against neutrals." •l. That the right of search is, as a general rule, strictly belligerent in its character, and cannot be exercised in time of peace. 3. That the only exception is the case of professed pirates ; that exception being founded on the fact that pirates are always enemies of every State, and, therefore, are equally subject to the jurisdiction of every State. 4. That a rneichaut vessel regularly incorporated in the marine of a State, does not become a pirate) by having been itself forcibly se zed by pirates; nor does she, when having escaped from pira. es, and forthwith returning to her law ful occupations from which, by force of arms, she had been temporarily diverted, become liable to be seized as prize upon the high seas. 5. That under circumstances of vehement suspicion of piracy, the usage of States has allowed, though with the most jealous reluctance, the right of approach, for the pur pose of ascertaining the national character of the vessel. That if that character be clearly commercial—if the State to which she belongs be undoubted—if her employ ment at the time of so ascertaining her nationality be law ful, then a suspicion of past unlawful conduct does nut justify seizure in time of peace, but does justify applica tion for inquiry to the proper authority and jurisdictiou of the State to which she belongs. Tried by these tests, the forcible capture of the Cagliari w:ts clearly 1. If that capture was illegal, the jurisdiction of the Court of the Two Siciliea was never founded ; the proceedings before them were therefore null and void. The argument that though the capture was illegal, the jurisdiction over the ship, howsoever obtained, might be well founded, appears to me to labaur under two capital errors : let. It builds the right of a State upon a wrongful act of that State ; 2ndly. It confounds two distinct things —the municipal relations of a Court to the Government of the State to which it belongs, and the mutual international relations of two States. It remains to observe_upon the practice of States as well as upon the law. The practice appears to me to confirm the law in this instance. First, as to the Carlo Alberto, cited in the Neapolitan proceedings. The " Carlo Alberto," after having landed, on the southern coast of France, the Duchess of Berry and several of her adherents, with a view of exciting civil war in that country, put into a French port ; but even, though persons admitted to be conspirators were taken out of the vessel, she being then in the French territoi y, and, unliee the Cagliari, being originallyemployed upon a hostile if not a piratical expedition, was, nevertheless, not condemned by the French Courts, but was remitted to the jurisdiction of her own country—Sardinia. In the case decided in England, the Le Louis, where a - French vessel had been seized by English cruisers for carrying on the African slave trade after that trade had been abolished by the internal laws cf. France, and by the treaty between Great Britain and France, the sentence condemning her a as reversed, and Lord Stowell said, "It is pressed as a difficulty, what is to be done if a French ship laden with slaves for a French port is brought in ? I answer, without hesitation, restore the possession which has been unlawfully divested ; re scind the illegal act done by your own subject, and leave the foreigner to the justice of his own country."

HOUSE OF LORDS.—(This Evening.) The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at 5 o'clock. Viscount DUNGANNON gave notice that, on the 7th of May, he should put a question to the noble earl the Secretary for Foreign Affairs with respect to the English Church in Paris. The Earl of ALBE\IARLE presented a petition in favour of legaliting the =nine with a deceased wife's sister. THE DIVORCE ACT. Lord LYNDHURST said he had received several communications from Ireland with respect to the D.vorce Act, and he begged to ask the noble and learned lord on the woolsack whether it was his inten tion to extend this measure to that part of the country! The LORD CHANCELLOR said be had not even considered such an exttusion, and at the present mo ment be was unable to give to the noble and learned lord any answer to the question. [LEFT SITTING.] HOUSE OF COMMONS—(This Evening. , The SPEAKER took the chair at four o'clock. ABOLITION OF CHURCH-RATES. Mr. PULLER gave notice that he should, on Tues day, 27th April, move that the house, on Wednesday the 28th, resolve itself into a committee of the whole house, to consider the expediency of providing for the repair (.1 the church and maintenance of churchyards, otherwise than at present by churc'i-rates. DANUBIAN PRINCIPALITIES. Mr. GLADSTONE inquired of her Majesty's Go vernment whether it was intended to lay papers on the table at this period on the subject of the union of the Danubian Principalities, in conformity with the decla• ration of the First British Plenipotentiary at the Con ferences of Paris in 1856 ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER aid the result of the investigation of the commission on the sub ject of the union ef the Danubian Principalities would be submitted to the contemplated Conference at Paris, and until that had been done it was not in his power to pace the papers on the table. FREEDOM OF ARREST IN IRELAND. Mr. HATCHELL a'ked the Attorney-General for Ireland, whether it is the intention of her Majesty's Government to introduce a bill this session to abolish the privilege of freedom from arrest at present enjoyed by official debtors in Ireland, in accordance with the recommendation of the Dublin Chamber of Commerce The ATTORNEY-GENERAL for Ireland said no such WI was in contemplation by her Majesty's Govern ment. NORTH AUSTRALIAN EXPEDITION. Mr. SCLATER-800 CH asked the Secretary for the Colonies whether the scientific results of the North Australian expedition would be published, and in what form ? Lord STANLEY said that no arrangements had been made for publishing the results of the North Australian expedition. Copies uf the papers had been furnished by the Geographical and Botanical Society, and another portion of the results of the expedition had been sent to the British Museum. GOVERNMENT OF INDIA BILL (No. 2.) Viscount GODERICH asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether it was still his intention not to withdraw the Government of India Bi 1! The CHANCELLOR of tie EXCHEQUER said he thought it more consistent, on the whole, that the ori• gins! understanding on the bill should not be departed from, and that the bill should be suspended until the discussion had taken place on the resolutions he should have the honour of introducing on Monday next. (Hear, hear.) He saw no reason for departing from that understanding. (Bear, hear.) Viscount GODERICH said on Monday, when the right hon. gentleman made his motion with regard to these resolutions, he should oppose it, and take the sense of the house on it. (Hear, hear.) CHURCH RATES AND INDIA. Sir J. TRELAWNY said that as he was determined to take the sense of the house on church-rates, be hoped the Government would give him a day for that purpose. (Hear, hear.) Lord J. RUSSELL said he thought the right hon. gentleman the Chancellor of the Exeter goer was in error in saying that an understanding had been come to to suspend the Bill N 0.2 for the government of India. It was his impression that the right hon. gentleman at the end of a former short conversation in answer to a question from the hon. baronet the member for Marylebone stated that tie did not mean to withdraw it, but to keep it in sus pence, and wait until the house had decided on the re solution. He had beard with great regret that declara tion—(hear, hear) —but he considered it was the decla ration both of the right honourable gentleman and his colleagues, and notes arising from any undertaking on the part of the house. He (Lord J. Russell) submitted to him, and also to those who acted with him as colleagues, although he had certainly concurred in his (L rd John Russell'.) opinion that the best mode of di-caissing this subj-ct was by resolution. (Hear, hear.) He believed the introduction of a bill and keeping it in suspense by the same Government teas a very unusual course, and he therefore trusted the rigbt hon. gentleman would not adopt the course he bad stated. He (Lord J. Russell) could not imag'ne that any resolution the house might agree to would at all justify the Government in proceeding with the bill in its present shape—(hear, hear, hear)—because he believed the house were opposed to the principle of electing by a parliamentary constituency to seats in an executiv e government. (Hear ) Her Majesty's Government ought to take one of two courses, either propose the resolu tions and act on them, or withdraw the Gep;rz n referenceesienthill. After some remarks from Mr. Ti to church-rates, Sir E. PERRY asked whether instructions had been sent to India that terms of amnesty, including protectiou to Ile and property and full toleration in matters of re ligion, should be held out to the inhabitants of Oude, excepting in gross cases of heinous crimes ; and, it no such instructions had been sent, whether i n the o p inio n of her Majesty's Government it was not expedient to do so? Mr. RICH called attention to the mutinous sepoys, and said some inducement should be held out to them to return to their allegiance to the government of the East India Company. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, in reply to the last two questions, instructions had been sent to India, that consistent with the demands of jus tice tneir sugge-lion.; w.re: t c:-.rri-A re ference to the church-rate=, he said be was inclined to think that the bill did not hold Rut any hopes of settling the church rates, and rather than give a day for going into commit re on it he would bring in a Government ineasure—(hear, hear) —but his objection to plsdging himself to it was the possibility of carrying it this session. He thought it was desiraWe to take the opinion of the house t on Mr. Puller'e motion. With re gard to the India Bill (No. 2), he was not aware it was on the order for the day, but thought it had been put off for some time. He thought that it was better, however, to take a decision on the resolutions, and afterwards introduce a bill founded on it. His reason for keeping the bill ou the order was to defend those parts of it that had been attacked, and had not been answered. He did not per sist with the bill in the form on the paper, but if the resolutions he should support were carried, ho should introduce a bill on them. Lord PALMERSTON said ho thought the course proposed now by her Majesty's Government the only one open for them to take. He would not discuss the propriety of proceeding by resolutions first, or uy bill. The resolutions in committee must be the principles on which the future bill must be drawn. Mr. BRIGHT thought the course now pursued the most convenient in the present awkward position of her Majesty's Government. With regard to church-rates, he assured her Majesty's Government the country were determined to have the question settled, and urged them to fix a day for that purpose. He had no desire to change Government - , and wished to see the present Govern ment in office so long as they would pass useful measures far the country. (Hear, hear.) He asked her Majesty's Government to reconsider the measure—reconsideration was the best thing a Government could do, for it often happened that "second thoughts were best." (Hear.) Mr. V. SMITH asked her Majesty's Government to lay on the table the instructions sent to India, referred to by the Chancellor of the Exchequer. He hoped the instructions were accompanied by admiration of the conduct of her Majesty's Government as it greatly de served, though their conduct had been improperly w - sailed by the right hon, member for Droitwitch. Sir J. PAKINGTON said that when a vote of thanks to the Governor-General of India was given he consi aered his conduct hypothetically—(laughter)—being based on the memorial from Calcutta, without Lot. 1 Canning's answer. Since then the Government had re - Feived !•r4ord C Inning's answer to it, and in almost if rot in every instance his answer was satisfactory. Sir U. WILLOUGHBY suggested it would he better to drop both the India bills now before the house. The motion for adjournment till Monday was then agreed te. WAYS AND MEANS.
