OLD COURT. (Before Mr. Baron Channel]. and Mr. Justice Keating.) THE CASE or THE REV. MR. HATCH. had not correctly conveyed my meaning about certain appearances on the person of the child. I have had an opportunity of seeing the notes of what I said on the former trial. I saw them about three days ago. Mr. Pratt, was reading them. I then made the observation to him that my answer, with respect to the point, was not sufficiently explained. I was quite aware of the omission before I entered the witness-box. The trial of Mary Eugenia Plummer, for perjury, was resumed this morning (the 4th day), when Mr. Thomas Plummer, the father of the defendant, said —I reside in Wiltshire, and , am possessed of considerable property. lam a member of the Church of England. I used to take my child, Eugenia, to church occasionally. I recollect seeing an advertisement in the paper with respect to Mr. Hatch receiving children to educate. I thought it an advantageous school, and Mrs. Plummer tnd myself arranged to send our child, Eugenia,there for education. We went to Mr. Hatch's house atWandsworth,and there, feeling pleased with the appearance of the place, we left the child. Mrs. Plummer never made a request that the child was to be petted. Certainly she never requested that the child might be taken into Mr. Hatch's bed. The witness then gave evidence to precisely the same effect as that given by Mrs. Plummer and the child with respect to the conduct of Mr. Hatch as related by the children, both in the cab and in the railway carriage, on their return to Wiltshire. He then proceeded—l never, on the way to the railway station, permitted the driver of the cab in which we were riding to associate with us on terms of equality. I swear I did not. I and Mrs. Plummer never drank porter with him. On our arrival home at night I left word for our medical man to attend us the next morning, and also sent for Mr. Pratt, our family solicitor. Mr. Gay, the surgeon, arrived about noon, and the child Eugenia related the whole of the circumstances to him in the presence of my mother in-law. Mr. Pratt shortly afterards arrived ; I told him about the circumstance, and then Eugenia related to him the same facts, in exactly the same terms, as also did the younger child Stephanie. They did not differ in the slightest particular. I don't recollect that the child made any complaint of unkindness of Mr. and Mrs. Hatch. Mr. Pratt, immediately after he had heard the facts, advised us to institute proceedings. I went to London and saw Messrs. Humphreys, solicitors, on the subject. A letter that was sent to the bishop was wrttten by Mr. Pratt. After I had read it over I signed it, and it was sent off. I afterwards re ceived a notice that an inquiry was directed, and I and the children went to Wandsworth to attend, but on the morn ing of the inquiry I was informed there would be no inquiry as Mr. Hatch had reigned his appointment. I never made it a habit even in her earlydays to sleep in our bed. I never knew them to surprise me whilst I was dressing. I know they were not acquainted with children of vicious habits. I know they were never permitted to mix with the grooms or men• servants. The child never had a brother. By Baron Channell—lt appears to me that the explana- tion is quite sufficient. The particular question alluded to appears to have been put and answered in an under tone, and that it had not been sufficiently explained, so no actual mistake had been made. Mr. Sergeant Shee said that was the case for the defence. After an adjournment for a quarter of an hour, _ _ Mr. Edwin James rose to reply on the whole of the evi dence. He dwelt upon the great importance of the result of the trial to all parties concerned, and said he felt that the hope Mr. Hatch expressed when he received sentence had arrived, and the jury would by their verdict restore him to liberty. He contended that the whole superstructure of the wicked story against Mr. Hatch had been shattered by the evidence given out of the mouths of witnesses called for the defence. He urged that the prurient and filthy ideas with regard to which Eugenia Plummer had deposed had been put into her head by her mother, and that the child rapidly adopted them until they grew into the wicked and impossible story she had told. The evidence of Mrs. Plummer, he thought, was most ex traordinary, and he thought that no woman could come into Court, and give her evidence in the manner that she did, unless she was in a state of intoxication or delirium tremens. No woman could alternately laugh, cry, and talk volubly to the learned counsel, inviting him down to Wiltshire to have brandy and water, while such a charge was pending against her own child, without she was in the state he had mentioned. Cross-examined by Mr. Giffard—l recollect that Mr. Brighton's name was mentioned at Mr. Hatch's, but I can't exactly remember what was said. Eugenia made a communication to her mother in my presence, but we were so astonished that we attributed it to accidental circum stances. On the 26th of August, I cannot recollect whether the holt was against the door. I will swear it was not open. I now recollect I did go through the door. I have made a mistake in saying it was closed. Eugenia talked about the circumstance all the way home. We did not sit up all night talking about it. I will swear we did not sit up all that night talking about it. I can't swear what time we went to bed. We sat up rather late talking about the distressing matter, and it might have been till two o'clock in the morning. I will swear that we did not have porter brought to the cab. I will swear that Mrs Plummer never stopped to eat at the Bayswater-road or had porter brought to us. I keep a gardener and a woman servant, but neither reside in the house. Servants have not refused to live in our house. I will not swear that they have never refused to live with us, I know a servant named Phoebe Hezel. I paid her one £5 because my wife used to beat her, but she used to steal things from us. I have never mentioned that circumstance before. She wished to come back and live with us, but her mother re fused to perinit her to do so. The £5 was paid for Phwbe's doctor's bill. My wife did not beat her with a poker—it "was a candlestick. Re-exaMined by Sergeant Shee—The charwoman re sided on my own grounds. The children when we got home sat up a short time, but certainly not until two o'clock. They were put to bed, and then Mrs. Plummer and myself sat up talking about it. Our present gardener has lived with us two years and a half, the one before him lived with us five years. By Baron Channell—The charwoman when she was with us had very little to do with the children. She was about forty years of age and marrie3. Mrs. Plummer always dressed and undressed her children. The female servant we formerly kept was a housemaid. By a Juror—l never took my children to the sea-side. [We shall continue the case in our late edition.] D EDITION. Mr. John Gay said —I am a surgeon, and reside at Swin don. I recollect being sent for by Mr. and Mrs. Plummer. It was on Aug. 27. I immediately went to their house, and SUN OFFICE, Six o'clock. I arrived about 11 in the morning. I saw Mr. and Mrs. Plummer. The children were afterwards introduced. We were all seated, and the eldest child (the defendant) was told to tell me all about Mr. Hatch's conduct. [The witness then related the conversation.] After giving an account of his medical examination of the children he pro ceeded—l was never betrothed to the child that I am aware of. She always appeared to me a good and truthful child. They have been carefully attended to, and kept very reserved. Cross examined by Mr. Edwin Tames—l have never dined at Mr. Plummet's. The mother first told me a por tion f the case. She questioned the child in my presence. She commenced by asking the question what Mr. Hatch did to her. I swear that before the child answered the ques tion the mother did not tell me of the indecencies. THE CASE OF THE REV. MR. HATCH. Mr. E. James having concluded his reply, A juror asked his lordship whether, as many of the jurors were shopkeepers, and it being Saturday evening, he could postpone summing up the evidence until Monday morning. Baron Channell—l am perfectly ready to go on now, but if the jury think it would be better to postpone fu ther pro ceedings until Monday, I am quite ready to go on. Another Juror—l think we had better go on. The Foreman—l am also of that opinion. I think the majority of us would prefer finishing the case this evening. Baron Channel—l cannot listen to anything respecting the majority of the jury. As far as I am concerned, as I said before, I am ready to go on. But I think as it is more than likely you will require some time for deliberation after I have concluded my summing up, that circumstance would very possibly lead to your being detained in custody until Monday morning. After I have summed up the evidence to a jury, a verdict must be given either one way or the other before they are at liberty to leave the court. Be sides, this is a case of very great importance. I am anxious that the convenience of all persons should be studied. I can pay no attention to the wishes of any given number. If you cannot come to an understanding amongst yourselves, I shall exercise my own discretion as to whether I shall proceed or not this evening. No reply was made by the jury. His Lordship continued—l think, under all the circum stances, it will be best we should now adjourn, and I will commence reading the evidence to you on Monday. The learned judge then quitted the bench, and the jury were ordered to be again in attendance on Monday morning. LAIN INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.) EXCHEQUER CHAMBER. :Judges present—Lord Chief Justice, Sir Alexander Cock burn, Justices Williams, Crompton, Byles, Willis, and Blackburn.) JUDGMENT.-APPEAL IN ERROR.-THE GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY COMPANY V. FLETCHER. The farther hearing of this part-heard appeal was re sumed. This is a writ of error from the Court of Exchequer to the Exchequer Chamber, against a decision of the Court of Exchequer, in favour of Mr. Fletcher, the defendant, in error. The contention is whether the defendant has a right to work his mines under the railway in Staffordshire. Sir Fitzroy Kelly, Q.C., is now being heard for the plaintiffs, in error, the railway company. The learned counsel contends that the owner of land and mines was not entitled to work his mines, as the surface land was con veyed to the railway company under the RailwayAct,which has now traffic on it, and defendant cannot work the mines without endangering the rairway. The learned counsel referred to several sections of the Railway Act, and deci sions of the Court, to show that the defendant was not entitled to work his mines to injure the railway by such The witness was here seized with a fainting fit, and stag gered back in the box. After a few minutes he recovered, but his cross-examination was postponed for a short time. Baron Channell—lt is a great pity something cannot be done to prevent the heat in court. It is quite oppressive. Mr. James Pratt, sen.—l am an attorney, and carrying on business at Wootton Bassett. I have been for some time the adviser of Mr. and Mrs. Plummer. I was sent for on the 27th of August last. I went imme diately. I saw Mr. and Mrs. Plummer and the children in a very distressed state. Mrs. Plummer said her children had been ill-treated at school, and she wished me to investigate the circumstances. I then examined the children as to the mode of ill-treatment, and the elder girl made a statement to me. [The witness here repeated the child's statement.] After I heard what she said I consi dered with Mr. and Mrs. Plummer with respect to the charge. The resu l t was that I came to L on d on an d saw Mr. Humphr e y s . I then returned to t h e coun t ry , an d received a letter f rom M r. HumphreYs) and then a letter was written to th e Bi s h op. Cross-examined—I arrived at Pluramer's after Mr. Gay had been there. Nothing was drawn up in writing. Up to the time of Mr. Hatch's resignation at Wandsworth I conducted the case for Plummer. I drew up the particu lars and went with them the next day to Mr. Plummer's trustees. Holcr o ftlh ouse i s a beauti f u l p l ace . By Sergeant Sh ee —Th e trustees I speak of were those under Mr. and M rs . Plummer's marriage settlement. I .never thought the child other than a goo d con d u cted child. Mr. Walter Pratt—l am a solicitor, t h e son o f the last witness, and resid e d a t S w i ndon. I was fi rs t engage d pro fessionally in this case in October, after my father had given it up. 1 had two interviews with Mrs. Hatch. After those interviews Mr. Hatch came to Ridley's Hotel. Mrs. Hatch came with him. She afterwards left the room at my re quest. I believe Hatch knew I held a warrant for his apprehension. After she left I toll him I thought I had authority to state that it was the wish of the parents that the poor child should not be exposed, and as he had resigned his living and involved himself in ruin, that the case had gone far enough, and if he would confess his guilt and apologise to Mrs. Plummer, there would be an end of the matter. He refused. We were all very much affected at the circumstance, and I cannot recollect the precise order of the conversation. There, however, was an observation that he made that produced a great impres sion in my mind, and I recollect it perfectly. After we had been talking; Mr. Hatch said, " Well, I hope you will deal as leniently as you can with me. I am mad or was mad." I cannot swear positively whether it was "I am mad" or " was mad," one or the other I am certain it was. By Mr. Edwin James—l certainly asked the policeman if he could, consistently with his duty, allow Mr. Hatch to re main in his own house until Monday. I did not wish to he exposed. The Rev.

It is three years ago since she quitted my establishment. I don't know how many schools she has been to since. Taylor, 212 IT, said--I had a warrant placed in my hands for the apprehension of Mr. Hatch on the 29th of October. I heard nothing of him until the 12th of November, when I found him at Ridley's Hotel. I found Mr. Pratt, jun., with Mr. and Mrs. Hatch, and I took him into custody. In going to the Wansworth Police-station he asked me the Precise nature of the charge. I said the warrant was for an assault on a girl named Plummer, and there was another for assaulting the sister. He said, " Can I see that infor mation ?" I said no doubt it will be read to you on Mon day. He said, " What is the punishment ?" I said if the case was proved the magistrate could give him six months. Cross-examined—l went to Ridley's by appointment with Mr. Pratt. Mr. Gay recalled—The mother said she could not tell me what it was, it was too shocking. The whole story told me was in answer to questions put by Mrs. Plummer. I can not say whether the younger child was there all the time, but she was part of the time. Mrs. Plummer asked such questions as " What did he do ? Re-examined by Sergeant Shee—The questions put by the mother were such as the following, "What did Mr. Hatch do to you ?" She did not put questions that would convey their own answer. I have frequently had fainting fits before. I knew that the shorthand-writer workings. The Lord Chief Justice observed that although the land- ONTIIQr sells his lands he reserves the mines and the right to work them, in terms of the Railway Act. Although he parts with the surface, he is entitled to work the mines and support the surface. In delivering judgment, the Lord Chief Justice said, the simple question here was whether the landowner was entitled to work his mines. By the 17th section of the oth Vic., cap. 20, there is an express reservation in favour of the landowner to work his mines; and when the time comes that the working of the mines render supports necessary to keep up the sur face, the landowner may have compensation for the loss of working the mines under such supports. lie was of opinion that the judgment of the Court below was right, and ought to be affirmed. The other learned judges were entirely of the same opinion. Judgment of the Court of Exchequer affirmed, with costs. POLICE INTELLIGENCE-(THIS' DAY.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. CIIARGE OF ROBBING A RIFLE VOLUNTEER.—" WHO SHOT THE Do o."—James Laybourn was charged before Mr. Beadon with stealing from the person of Joseph Coat ham, of 91, Great Peter-street, Westminster, one of the Westminster Rifle Volunteers, while in uniform, a watch of the value of £l5. The prosecutor said he was going along the streets in him uniform the previous afternoon when the prisoner pushed up against him, at the same time calling out, "Who shot the dog." A scuffle ensued, his watch chain was broken from his watch, and prisoner ran off. One of the warrant officers said he could explain the case. The accused and his father had been for some years em ployed at the Arthur Club, and at the time of the affair was on his way back from posting a lette r. He believed they had both been drinking, and that in a scuffle which took place the watch chain was broken. Mr. Beadon asked the prosecutor whether his watch left him at all and he replied that it did not. Mr. Beadon asked the accused what he had to say ? The accused said he did call out, " Who shot the dog," but never touched the prosecutor's watch. Mr. Beadon said it was well known what " Who shot the dog" meant, and should merely fine the prisoner 10s, or seven days in default for the assault. THAMES. THE TERROR OF WAPPING WORKHOUSE.—Elizabeth Travers, a bold, violent, and ill-conducted woman, about 20 years of age, a pauper chargeable to the Stepney Union, was brought before Mr. Selfe, charged with violently as saulting Julia Flower, assistant matron of the Wapping pocr-house, in which the adult females of the union are lodged and maintained. The prisoner has been several times before the magistates of this court for assaults on other paupers, and disorderly conduct in the workhouse, and is answerable for muoh of the insubordination which has pre vailed in the building, and has led to inquiries on the part of the Central Poor Law Board and the Board of Guardians of the Stepney Union. It appeared from the evidence of Mrs. Flower, a most re spectable and well-conducted woman, that while her hus band was taking in the bread and weighing it, the prisoner annoyed him and the baker, used disgusting language, and alluding to the infirmity of Mr. Flower, being pock-marked, said he had more specks in his face than would fill a bushel measure. She also called him cribbage-face, laughed at him, and applied foul epithets to the baker who was delivering the bread. Mrs. Flower repeatedly begged of the prisoner to desist, which she refused to do. Mrs. Flower endea voured to remove her, and the prisoner swore at her, at tacked her in a furious manner, and struck her a violent blow on her breast. Mrs. Flower seized the prisoner, but although a strong woman was no match for her fury ; she tore her dress, attempted to strangle her, and got her finger in her mouth and bit it. Mrs. ]lower, with difficulty, ex tricated her finger and called upon her husband to assist in securing the prisoner. He did so, and the prisoner then made an attack upon him, threw him down, and scored his face with her nails, which were both long and sharp. Both Mr. and Mrs. Flower bore marks of the injuries they had received. Mrs. Flower also said, " You can't tell, sir, what I have to put up with from that woman. She has been abusing me for the last fort night. She came behind me one day and threw me down, and laughed at me. She is the terror of the place." Mr. Selfe—l know she is. She has been convicted several times. Mrs. Flower—Five or six times. The prisoner—lt's a lie—only four times. Roche—She has been convicted three times for violent assaults on the pauper females, and been convicted of dis orderly conduct. The prisoner—l was knocked about yesterday. I was nearly murdered. Look at my head how it has been thumped. (There was nothing the matter with her head.) • Mr. Selfe—You are a most desperate woman—a nuisance and a terror to the other inmates, Your conduct all the year round has been very bad. I sentence you to six weeks' imprisonment and hard labour for an aggravated assault. The prisoner immediately struck the top of the dock in front of her, and exclaimed, " That humbugging sentence will take as much effect upon me as a blister on this - board."

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS-(YESTERDAY.) The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at five o'clock. CENTRAL AMERICA. Lord MALMESBURY asked the noble lord opposite (Lord Wodehouse) in what state negotiations were with respect to Central America Lord WODEHOUSE said he was happy to inform the noble lord that the Bay of Islands had been ceded to Honduras under conditions which would ensure the security of her Majesty's subjects residing there. The treaty by which this cession was accomplished had been ratified by the Government of Honduras and her Majesty. With regard to Nicaragua a treaty had been agreed on, but not yet ratified. If the conditions of this treaty were to some extent different from those which had been discussed while the noble earl (Malmes bury) was in office, they were nevertheless of a highly satisfactory nature. It would not, he thought, be consi dered advisable to produce the correspondence until the treaty had been fully ratified. The Earl of MALMESBURY wished to know definitely with regard to the Nicaragua treaty if the Americans had recognised the rights of passage over the isthmus. Lord IVODEHOUSE was understood to reply in the affirmative. CHURCH RATES. ...Petitions against the abolition of church rates by the Earl of DIXIE; and also in favour of their abolition by Lord LYVEDEN, were presented to the house. POOR LAWS. The Earl of DEVON presented a petition praying for a revision of the Poor Removal Act. PROTESTANTS IN TURKEY. Lord STRATFORD DE REDCLIFFE presented a petition respecting the state of the Protestants in some parts of the dominions of the Sultan, and entered at some length into the grievances under which they laboured with respect to spiritual instruction. He eulogised the conduct of Dr. Cullen, wbo had, in the Midst of pre judices on all sides, established a place of worship for them in that part of the world. Great as was the wish of the Sultan to maintain that establishment in its integrity, he did not think it was advisable for this country to leave the whole of the work to the Sultan, but do all that was possible to aid him in his praiseworthy endeavours. When this petition was upon their lordships' table he trusted it would receive the favourable consideration both of the house and of her Majesty's Government. The petition was from the committee of the Evangelical Alliance, and prayed for the interference of her Majesty's Government to enable the Protestant churches of the East to exercise their just rights, as guaranteed to them by the Sultan's proclamation. (Cheers.) The Archbishop of CANTERBURY thanked the noble viscount for the great interest he had taken in this question of religious toleration in the dominions of the Sultan, and thought, whether they considered the interest of religion generally, or the unexampled triumphs, of which they had proof, that Protestantism had achieved in Turkey, the noble viscount was entitled to the deep gratitude of every friend of religious liberty. (Hear, hear.) It was impossible, like wise, not to sympathise with the noble viscount in the high terms of which he had spoken of the liberality of the reigning Sultan, or to over-estimate the value of the labours of those societies to which the noble viscount had alluded. Notwith standing the immense difficulties which existed in Turkey, it was most gratifying to observe the progress which the Protest nt religion had made in almost all parts of that country. Again referring to the debt of gratitude which, a 3 he said, the whsle human race owed to the noble vis count for the deep interest he had taken in the subject, and for his long continued and successful efforts in the cause of religious liberty in the East, the most rev, prelate was understood to express his concurrence in the prayer of the petition. After a few words from several noble lords, the subject dropped. ECCLESIASTICAL COURTS JURISDICTION BILL. Lord CRANWORTH, in moving the scond reading of this bill, which had come up from the Commons, explained that the object of the measure was to render persons charged with the offence of brawling in churches amenable to the common law, instead of, as at present, to the ecclesiastical law. The nob7e and learned lord stated that formerly a person guilty of this offence was punished by exclusion from the church, and if he repeated it he lost his ears. The object of the bill was to make the offence a civil one, and it carried out the recommendation of the commission of 1832. Lord BROUGHAM supported the bill, and suggested that it should be extended to Ireland. After a few words from Lord WENSLEYDALE, The Bishop of EXETER opposed the bill, and com plained that it had been passed through the other house without the slightest explanation of its provisions, and moved "That the present bill be read a second time that day six months." Lord CRANWORTII said if their lordships would give this bill a second reading, he would postpone the committee until Tuesday week, in order that the right rev. bench might have the fullest opportunity for considering its pro visions ; in addition to which he could assure them that any suggestion they might make should receive his most care ful attention. The Bishop of EXETER said that after what had just fallen from the noble lord he felt justified in withdrawing his amendment. (Hear, hear.) The bill was then read a second time. The reports of amendments on the following bills were brought up and agreed to :—Pawnbrokers Act Amendment Bill, Larceny, &c., Bill, Forgery Bill, Malicious Injury to Property Bill, Coinage Offences Bill. OFFENCES AGAINST THE PERSON BILL. On the bringing up of the report on the amendments, The Marquis of WESTMEATH suggested that laying a stone in the way of a railway train maliciously should be made a felony, and indictable as murder when death ensued. The LORD CHANCELLOR said that by the common law the offence was murder already when death ensued, and manslaughter when the offence was committed through carelessness. The Marquis of WESTMEATH said that if so, the law was nugatory, as there was no public prosecutor. Last year 138 persons had been put to death in that way, and 1,827 seriously injured, and in no case had a prosecution followed. The report was then received and agreed to. EXCHEQUER BILLS BILL. This bill (£13,230,000) passed through committee. The Common Lodging-house (Ireland) and the Bank of Ireland Bills were severally read a second time. Their lordships adjourned at 20 minutes past seven HOUSE OF COMMONS.—(YESTERDAY.) The SPEAKER took the chair at 4 o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Lords' amendments to the following bills were con sidered and agreed to, and the bills were ordered for third reading :—Andover and Redbridge Railway, Midland Railway (use of Railways in and near London), and West Somerset Railway. The following bills were read a third time :—Cardiff Water, Carrickfergus and Larne Railway, Dublin and Wicklow Railway, East India Coal Company, Matlock Water. ENLISTMENT IN IRELAND FOR THE POPE. Mr. STEUART gave notice that he would ask for infor mation relative to the enlistment of troops in Ireland for the Papal service, whether such enlistment was considera objectionable ; and, if so, whether any steps would be adopted by Government in reference to the matter BED OF THE SEA, &c. Mr. A. SMITH moved for certain returns on the subject of the rights of the Crown to the beds or shores of the sea t or the beds and :shores of tidal or navigable rivers, &c., which were ordered. TILE BENGAL CODE. Mr. KINNAIRD asked the Secretary of State for India whether any and what steps have teen taken by the Govern ment of India for bringing the subject of the repeal of the Regulation XIX. of 1810 of the Bengal Code, and the Re gulation VII. of 1817 of the Madras Code, under the consi deration of the Legislative Council of India, as directed by the despatch of Lord Stanley, dated the 24th of February, 1859 ? Sir C. WOOD said that he would be quite ready to pro duce the papers alluded to, but only a portion of them up to the present time were in his possession. He expected the remainder of them by the Calcutta mail. THE PROVINCE OF ORISSA. the In d ania(l-fi dated India - office, addressed Mr. SMOLLETT as k e d the Secretary of State for India, to t reference he ian Manchester to a Cotton lettr the 16th day of April, 1860, stating that th e proposals of the Madras Irrigation and Canal Comp any, for construct ingcr from Association, works of irrigation, drainage, and navigation in the province of Orissa, were under the serious consideration of her Majesty's Government, whether such serious consideration applied to that portion of the scheme which involved the guarantee of a minimum dividend to the share holders of this company upon the whole or any portion of their stock. Sir C. WOOD replied in the affirmative. FORGERY OF TRADE MARKS. Mr. BASS asked the President of the Board of Trade Whether, as no clause in reference to the forgery of trade marks had been introduced in the bill for consolidating and amending the law of forgery, he would, at the earliest op portunity, introduce the measure he had prepared on that question. Mr. M. GIBSON said that it was his intention to in troduce such a measure as that mentioned by the hon. member as soon as the state of public business would per mit of his doing so. PUBLIC BUSINESS. In reply to Mr. DISRAELI, Sir G. 4, C. LEWIS said it was proposed to proceed with the Highways Bill this evening. COOKING IN THE ARMY.
