Never was the necessity for a large and com prehensive measure of Parliamentary Reform more painfully conspicuous than at this momeLt. Last year it was clearly proved, beyond the pos sibility of dispute, or difficulty, that the chosen representatives of the people did not understand the feelings and wishes of their_ccinstituents, that there was a peculiar atmosphere in the House of Commons, which made it 3 members indifferent or insensible to the voice of pubic opinion. A large number of experienced persons, who bad previously enjiyed a fair degree of popularity, received a painful but salutary less-)n as to the propriety and necessity of respezting the pressure from without. Never was an appeal to the country more decisively answered, and never was there a larger infusion of new blood admitted into the representative branch of the Legislature. But the lesson seems to have been already for gotten, or at least disregarded. The most obnoxious measure which has fur a series of years been intr duced in either House, a measure raTccting our internal law dictated by a foreign Power, a I:Leisure earnestly and emphatically protes'ed against and condemned by every independent jour nalist, has forthetime being been sanctioned byan overwhelming majority of more than three to one. Twu hundred and ninety-nine Right Hon. and Ron. Gentlemen quailed beneath the threat of invasion, and by their votes affixei their seals to the act of degradation ; while but ninety-Dino manifested that spirit of .independence, befitting men jealous of the honour and dignity of the once mighty British flatian. We are happy to say that there were men of all parties and shades of political opinion who thus nobly distinguished themselves. On Monday, Mr. KINGLAKE, Mr. HORSMAX, Mr. HADJIELD, Mr. GILPIN, Mr. W. J. Fox, qn . &above and beyond all JOHN ARTHUR Rozsucx—tried and consistent liberals, boldly vindicated the national honour. Last night Mr. S. WAR -11E4 made a brilliant and most effective speech, * dearly and distinctly showing that the proposed. puacttnents were wholly uncalled for, that they would be useless and inefft.:ctual, dero gatory to the national spirit, and that the entire measurswas a libel on the law of England. Dif fering as *e do on many points from Mr. WARREN, we =licit help recognising gratefully the truly British keeling whi c h h e displayed and we thank him cordially and' s i ncerely for ) the admirable exposition of views and opinions that ought to have decided the question. He liras ably supported by Mr. B eerm. M . HOPE, Mr. Hmir, Mr. MONCIETON M ' —. IL ICE and by Lord JOHN RII3SELL, who went far to retrie his reputation by the manly and stat esmanli ke speech which he delivered ; while of the Conser vative party, Captain ARCHDALE, Right Hon. W. BEREAPORD, Sir FITZROY KELLY, and others by their votes sustained the great principle at issue. The'sc-called apology was brought forward. As we suspected, it was dated on the 6th of Feb ruary, being manifestly concocted for the occa sion. :Indeed, it was essential to prevent the bill from being ignominiously irejected, as we believe, despite the sycophancy of.certain parties, it would have been, but for the specious explanation. W e do not, however, think that a mere expression of regret for the publication', while the truculent bullies by whom the mendacious insults were so wantonly offered, not only remained uncen sured, but were decorated and promoted—by any We believe that Eng 7 means a sufficient anteude. lish gentlemen of the old school would be sorry to allow the vindication of their honour to remain in the hands of persons so very easily satisfied. Tlie bill, however, has not yet been carried. We trust to the good men and true, who have sc faithuily performed their duty in Terpect thereof, to persist in their oppcsitiOn - until t!iesy cause 01 , 3 rejection of the obnoxious bill, tr c o roi.rtc , . , i neutralize its provisions. Let them :eeullect; 1 that it may be regarded as the introduction 1 of the sharp e n d o f t h e we d ge, and j tbM it is utterly impossible to predict the t lengths to which the ill-omened precedent may be carried. What we have granted to France can scarcely be refused to Austria, Russia, or Prussia, or to any of the inferior Powers. In deed, it is by no- means improbable that we shall soon receive requisitions from King 'BOMBA him self, demanding the punishment of those who have dared to doubt the love of his sifejectA, or the mild benignity of his rule. The occasion is an important one, and we trust that every nervo will be strained to vindicate the independence of the United Kingdom, and to prevent it from being converted iuto a French prefecture. Ttlegrams have been received respecting the state of affairs in India and China. The dates are Calcutta 9th, Madras 9th, Bombay 13th of January, and Canton 29th, and }Lug Kong 3002 of December. The intelligence from every quarter was very satisfactory. Sir COLIN CAMPBELL had occupied Furruckabad on the 3d of January. The rebels had attacked him on the previous day, and regularly " caught a tartar." They were completely repulsed after a severe skirmish, with the loss of all their guns, some seven or eight in number. They reckoned with- , out their host in fancying, that the vigi lant and true-hearted Highlander could be caught napping. They afterwards abandoned Furruckabad, abandoning all their heavy artillery, Communications were also opened with the gallant SEATON and his victorious column. Gorruckpore was captured on the 6th January by JUNG BAITA • DOOR and hi 3 gallant Ghoorkas. They also took seven guns and destroyed 200 of the insurgents. This achievement affords an admirable comment on the judicious manner in which Lord CANNING rejected their valuable assistance at the com mencement of the insurrection, and which doubt less formed a portion of his claim on the national gratitude—a complete justification of the votes of thanks by both Houses of Parliament. The loss of our allies was but two Ghoorkas killed and seven wounded. The gallant Ouraiat still remained with 4,000 followers in the Alumbagh. The peasantry were beginning to bring in supplies to his camp—a strong proof, if any were required, that they un derstand that the game is altogether up, and that Oads must soon succumb to the irresistible force that will be brought to bear on it. Brigadier WALPOLE had occupied Et Awah on the 29th Dec. He was about proceeding to Minpooree, and thence to join Sir COLTS CAMPBELL at Agra. The Sylhet Battalion had attacked and com pletely dispersed the Chittagong mutineers near the frontiers of Tipperah. The rebels had sus tained considerable loss, while our own was com paratively trivial. A bill had been introduced for the purpose of uniting the Meerut and Delhi divisions to the Punjaub. The Lieutenant-Governorship was to be given to Sir JOHN LAWRENCE, a just, although inadequate recognition of the pre-emi nent services, which, under Providence, had saved the Anglo-Indian Empire. The news from China is still more interesting. As we anticipated the bombardment of Canton had commenced. The iron storm opened on the devoted city on the 28th Thcomber, and was con tinued during the whole of the day and night. On the following morning at six o'clock the general assault took place in three divisions, two English and one French. Gough's Fort was taken at two o'clock and destroyed. Our success must by that time have been rendered certain, although the assist ance and direction of the Hon. General ASH BURNHAM was not available, and that distinguished officer was on his way home, in place of braving the wrath of Commissioner YEar, and his valiant JOHN CHINAMEN. The inhabitants had continued a desultory but ineffectual fire from their houses. The troops had however been judiciously prevented from entering the city. Its subjugation was certain, but it. would have been ridiculous to sacrifice many valuable lives, in order to anticipate by a few hours the submission that is inevitable. It is also an act of mercy, not only to our own troop?, but to the misguided men who have so long delayed the fulfilment of their just obligations. The Map of China, which appears in our pre sent impression, will, we trust, enable our friends and subscribers to follow more closely the course of events, and to perceive clearly the nature of the success hitherto obtained, and that which must speedily follow, until the insult to the British flag and the contumacy and bad faith of the Yehites have been fully and completely punished. It will be seen that the number of people in each province is counted by tens of millions ! TUE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 10, 1858 COURT CIRCULAR. Her Majesty the gseeu held a Caort yesterday after noon, at Buckingham Palace, for the reception oa the Throne of addresses of congratulation on the nuptials of her Royal Highness the Princess Royal with his R9yal Highness the Prince Frederick William of Prussia.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.--(This Day.) COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. (Before Lord Campbell and a Special Jury.) THE QUEEN V. ABIEaTHONG. This was a traverse of an inquisition in lunacy touch ing the sanity of Catherine Josephine Armstrong, wife of Captain Armstrong, and daughter of the late M. Martinez. Spanish and Portuguese merchant in the City, and who resided at Hampstead. The lady was about 58 years of age, and was married in 1822. In 1844 her son died, which caused such a shock to her feelings that symptoms cf weakening intellect pre sented themselves, and shortly afterwards it was found necessary to put her in an asylum. She was removed from one asylum to another, and it beinm found she was not in a fit state of mind to have her liberty, her father, in 1850, signed a certificate for her further confinement in an asylum. In 1852 the father made his will, leaving her 2,0001. a-year to trustees, independent of her husband, who were to pay died r ibneigs6 i t by monthly instalments, or at their discretion, according to her requirements and necesaitie., and for properly looked alter.

Mr. BUCHANAN presented a petition from Glac. gow, praying fur the adoption of measures for the defence of the unfortunate Engli. h engineers for trial at Naples. POSTAL COMMUNICATION WITH AUSTRALIA• Mr. MACARTNEY asked the Secretary to the Treasury, whether the contract entered into in July, 1856, with the European and Australian Mail Company, had been cancelled or determined ; and if so, what arrangements had been made to secure the maintenance of the postal communication with the Australian colonies for the future ? And also, whether any extension of time of the existing contract with the Royal Mail Steam Packet Company, which expires in 1862, had. been grants], and for what period ? Mr. WILSON was not aware that any proposition had been made for determining the contract and the arrangements under which that contract still continued. An extension of contract for two years had been granted to the Royal Mail Steam Packet Company from 1862, on the understanding that they should improve the service with Rio Janeiro and Buenos Ayres. CANTILLON'S LEGACY]. Mr. STERLING gave notice that he should, to-morrow, ask the First Lord of-the Treasury if it were true, or if he could obtain information of an authentic character of the fact that the Emperor of the French had paid, with interest, the legacy of 10,000 f., bequeathed by the First Napoleon, to Ctn. titian, who attempted to assassinate the Duke of Wel lington. CHURCH RITES. Sir J. TRELAWNEY ;12ked if it was the intention of the Government to oppose the first reading of his abolition of Church Rates Bill to-Morrow. A noble lord on the Opposition benches bad intimated he should make no opposition to the fiat reading. Sir G. GREY said he should not oppose the first reading of the hon. baronet's ta. OATHS BILL. Lord J. RUSSELL move:l the second reading of the Oaths Bill Sir F. THESIGER said it was not his intention to offer any opposition to the secondreading of this bill. He concurred in the proposed change in the Christian oath, and, adhering to his former principle, he assented to the second reading of the bill on tho unders,anding that be or some other hon. member would in committee move the omission of the clause relative to the proposed Jews' oath. (Hear.) Mr. NAPIER, said the question had been raised in the least objectionable form in the bill. He intimated that he should not oppose it 3 second reading, but reserve to himself the right of opposing any of t its clauses in committee. Mr. HASSARD gave a general support to the bill. He, however, objected to the words in it declaring that no pope, or foreign potentate, has, or ought to have, any spiritual or other jurisdiction i❑ this country, knowing that everyday experience showed the contrary. After some remarks from Mr. Ayrton, Mr. Collier, and Mr. Baz Lord J. RUSSELL said he should be glad to eee one oath both for Rowan Catholics and Protestants, instead of two as at present. His attempt on a former occasion to frame one oath for both was defeated by the Protestant jealousy of the home. He feared the day was distant before Parliament would 6e induced to make such an :Iteratio❑ in the :avv. He considered the words objected to had not the bearing hon. members considered. When he OA the oaths he did su with the be+ief that the Queen was the supreme head of the nation, and that no laws could have authority in this country in which they did not take a part. Mr. li'MALION said they ought not to continue a phraseology in the oath that was insulting to everybody. It imputed opinions to persons which, in all probability, they had never entertained. Mr. WALPOLE considered that oaths should be administered in the most imposing manner possible. There was something cumbrous in the present form which was remedied in the noble lord's bill, to which, therefore, he should give his assent. After some further discussion, the bill was read a second time. LADY HAVELOCK'S AND SIR HENRY HAVELOCK'S ANNUITIES BILL. This b7ll passed through committee. ECCLESIASTICAL RESIDENCE (IRELAND). Mr. NAPIER obtained leave to introduce a bill for the amendment of the law relative to ecclesiastical recd• chccei in Ireland, slid way read a first time. CHURCHES, &c., IRELAND.

MONEY MAR KET ATD COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, CITY, Two o'CLocit. The first series of Public Sales of Indigo for the present year commenced yesterday. The quantity to be offered consists of 9,019 chests, of which 4,779 210 old goads, bought in at previous sales; and about 1,590 chests in second hands. The qualities of the new goods in the sale are generally of an ordinary character, and include several parcels of re-sh;pments from continental ports, and also from New' York, chiefly of 0 nd e and ordinary Madras kinds, and by no means in good odndition. Of the various descriptions to be offered it is estimated that about one-fifth are good and fine, and four-fifths middling and ordinary. The Oudes aro mostly ordinary, with a moderate proportion of good middling to fine. The Madras and Kurpah are one-fourth good and fine, and three-fourths middling and ordinary. The Salem middling to good, the Java fine, the Manilla mostly ordinary and very ordinary. There are seven packages of China green indigo, an article of new import and not generally known. The sale opened with very little animation, and continued dull throughout the day, and the trade evinced little disposition to purchase, and the attendance of both home and foreign buyers was but moderate. Good Bengals declined 4d. to 6d. ; Ordinary ditto, 9d. ; Madras, Gd. ; Kurpah, 9d. to is., and Oudes, is. to is. 3d. per lb. The following are the highest and lowest prices realised at yesterday's sale. Ben gal, 25. to 85. sd. ; Madras, ls. Bd. to 3s. ld. ; Kurpah, 4s. 2d. to 6s. 6d. ; Calcutta Fig, is. sd. to 25., and Sweepings, 2s. per lb. Accounts from Liverpool state that the Cotten Market yesterday closed with a firm appearance, and values of all descriptions were fully id. per lb. cleat*. The sales were estimated at 7,000 bales, 1,500 of which were taken by the speculators. The Railway Share Market closed steadily, and prices were well maintained. • The tendency of the continental exchanges is still in a downward direction, and'as gold is now a trifle dearer in Paris than in London, some anxiety is evinc2:l to ascertain whether remittances from this side will commence on a large scale.; Up to this moment the consignments have„,,,ot repre sented more than would pay for the parcels •of silier received from Boulogne, and no immediate apprehension need exist of such a drain as will occasion a decline in the Bank's stock of bullion. A further sum of 100,000/. in gold was sent into the national establishment yesterday. The Ripon, which will be de4patched to-morrow to Bombay, will take out 192,7421. chiefly in • At a meeting of creditors held to-day of t! - ,e firm of B. C. T. Gray and Co., who recently failed, a balance-sheet was presented, giving the liabilities at 37,368/., and the assets 'at 21,9201. ; showing a deficiency of 15,4481. A dividend of about 12g. in the pound is consequently expected, and it was resolved to wind up under inanection. The demand for accommodation in Lombard street to-day is very quiet, and the rates continue easy. The Market for English Securities has improved to a sligl,t extent, owing to the sf.ttlement of the Refugee question, so far as Lord Palmerston's motion is concerned. Whilst the debate was in progress a good deal of uncertainty naturally pre vailed, and the quotations were consequently depressed, There is an impression now that an improvement will take place, and a few purchases have been made, which have tended to strengthen the market. Consols have been 951 96 for money, and 96 to 961 for account ; the present prices are 96 to 961, and 96i respec tively. The New Threes are 96f t. The Reduced 96- 7 ,- to I.

BIRTHS AND DEATHS IN LONDON.—The total number of deaths in London, which in the previous week was 1,363, was in the week that ended last Saturday (Feb. 6) 1,314. The mortality oflast week thus approximated very closely to that which former experience leads to expect in the first week of February. Last week the births of 910 boys and 932 girls, in all 1,842 children, were registered in London. In the tea corresponding weeks of the years 1848-57 the average number was 1,598. At the list quarterly meeting of the Canterbury Town Council, the mayor inquired whether the council were disposed to vote a congratulatory address to the Emperor of the French' on his recent escape from assassination. "Several members," says the KCAtide Gazette, "expressed their opinion that the tone lately adopted by the French newspapers towards England did not afford eneourave ment for the presattation of each an address. Tue matter therefore dropped." The Opiatione of Turin, in a leading article, alludes to certain rumours current in that capital, to the effect that fresh negotiations have been sit on foot for a reconciliation between tZome and Pied mont. This rumour appears to be owing to certain conversations report& I to have taken plane between the Pope and Mgr. Scls, bishop of Nice , now at Rome. The Opinione, however, c nsiders the questions at issue of too serious a nature to be easily set lad at present. A. Berlin letter in the Independallee of Brussele, says :—" An article in the Gazette de St. Peters bourg of the 29th, which c l ea rly sets forth the rights, not only cf the duchies of Holstein and of Lauenbourg, hut also those of Schleswig, has pro ,luced a coosidtr.dile secs: tion in the (Uplona, t ti e worn. This article dechreg that if Schk‘sri - h; vyas not then:dolled in the Ra.ifian despatch of lb Decernbor last, it is not, as has been stated at Copenhagen, lxcause all that has been done of late years with regard to that duchy has been approved of at St. Petersburg."
