Several rather odd incidents last night marked the closing scene of the Commons' rejection of the Lords' Amendments. For example, there was that eccentric outbreak of cheering and counter cheering which occurred immediately upon the announcement of tho numbers upon the last division taken for and against one of the Lords' An.endinents. For the motion there were 290, against it there were 218— consequently there was a clear majority of 72 against the Lords' amendment then under consideration. Nevertheless, hardly was the result declared, than there arose vociferous and prolonged acclamations from the side of the Opposition. As though Seventy two against them were really a triumph on their side over tlu Government ! Ridiculous though that view of it undoubtedly is in itself, the fact of its being so regarded, is one having about it an undoubted significance. It emphasis sin a re markable manner t%e enormity of the majority hitherto wielded by Mr. GLADSTONE like a rod of iron over the heads of his political opponents since his induction into office, at the head of the present Government. It demonstrates rather signally the magnitude of the dominant party in the House of Commons, when the mere circumstance of the dwind ling of the net majority on a single division, from over a Hundred to over Seventy, should be hailed almost as a victory by the Conservative Opposition. Then, again, therewas the contention which took place, there were the recriminations which were indulgedin between the ex-Premierand the President of the Board of Trade —recriminations which were indulged in not only by Mr. DISRAELI and Mr. BRIGHT, but by Mr. GLAD STONE, and by Mr. HARDY, and by Lord JOHN MANNERS. And all apropos to a remark thrown out by the President of the Board of Trade, previous to the Division being taken, a remark which was re garded by the Opposition (falling as it had done from the lips of a leading member of the Cabinet.) as tantamount to a distinct threat or menace to the House of Commons of a possible, or proximate, and, of course, a purely contingent Dissolution. Refer ring especially and individually to the Leader of the Opposition, Mr. BRIGHT observed, in reference to the period when the House of Commons was dealing with the preamble of the Irish Church Bill—" As every one felt at the _time, and as the right hon. gentleman knows, and as we all know, the question to come, and the difficulty which was before us was the endowment of the Roman Catholic Church in Ireland. And he knows, and we all know, that if from any disaster that might happen to this Bill, another appeal were made to the constituencies of the Unit4d Kingdom—not that the members might greatly change; they might be the same ; but I undertake to say that the members on that side of the house would if possible, be more irrevocably pledged to oppose that endowment than gentlemen on this side. If gentlemen opposite went to their constituencies sup porting the scheme of the House of Lords—l don't know what the numbers are, but I undertake to say that not one of them would require to find a seat below the gangway, and that the portion of the house above the gangway opposite would in the next Parliament hold the whole of the Conservative party favourable to endowment."—At this there were Ministerial cheers, mingled with cries of " No, no," from the Opposition—Mr. BRion'r adding, sententiously, "That is my opinion." Rising very shortly after that division had been taken, which, giving a clear majority of 72 to the Government, was nevertheless hailed almost as a victory/by the Opposition, Mr. Dis- RAELl—tOwards the close of his speech, when referring to the relative attitude assumed in regard to the Irish Church Bill by the Lords and by the Com Mons, other wise by the Opposition and by the Government— asked" What occurs ? _Why," exclaimed the ex-Pre mier, "the right hon. gentleman (Mr. GLADSTONE) has counselled the House to refuse any approbation of any of these amendments, and another colleague of the Minister, the President of the Board of Trade, absolutely got up to-night and threatened the House with dissolution—which was a most unconstitutional pro.:eeding—as the penalty of these amendments being adhered to." Thereupon arose the rather stormy contention, in theindulgenceof the recrimina tions excited by which not only the ex-Premier and the President of the Board of Trade, but the Prime Minister, and Mr. GATIIORNE HARDY, and Lord JOHN MANNERS rather freely participated. Denying point-blank that his right hon. colleague's remarks bore any such construction as that imputed to them by the Lca ler of the Opposition, Mr. GLADSTONE exclairnea, with ttaconccaled irritation, "Every allu. sion to the possibility of a dissolution on the part of a Miuister is cot a iiinace." A threat, Mr. BIZIGIifS remarks did not constitute, according to Mr. CLAD- STONE. Whereas, immediately after that declaration on the part of the First Lord of the Treasury, Mr. lIARDY thus cogently commented upon the indiscreet words uttered by a Cabinet Minister—who is always, by the way, either uttering or writing what may be mildly characterised, as at the very least, words of indi•icretion. " The Right llon. Gentleman dic allude," said Mr. HARDY, " to a dissolution. Wha did he mean by it? Was it a promise or was it a threat? It was either one or the other. Ido not greatly care which. He said that under certain cir. cumstances, rolating to a question immediately pending, this House might be sent abou' its business." Repelling the charge directed against him originally by Mr. DISRAELI, and after wards enforced by the coincident opinion of Mr. HARDY, the President of the Board of Trade ob- served shortly afterwards, I venture to say that not a single member of this House besides the two right hon. gentlemen opposite, when I alluded to the pro bable expression of opinion pa the part of the consti tuencies with respect to concurrent endowment, if that question were referred to them, understood that I spoke of a dissolution in the slightest degree by way of menace." In so speaking, Dlr. BRIGHT certainly " ventured" too far, seeing that Lord JOHN MANNERS directly afterwards declared unequivocally that he himself had put precisely the same interpretation, as that put by his two right hon. friends, upon Mr. BRIGHT'S reference to a dissolution as just possibly imminent. Carried away by his own burning indignation at the idea that any one could possibly think for one moment that he meant a spade when he spoke of a spade, Mr. BRIGHT closed his denial of any such intention having ever been in his mind, by using words still hastier and still more indiscreet than any he had previously uttered ; namely, where he said, "We are dealing with what I regard as a great historical transaction, and I am afraid lest ui on the last night of its discus- sion right hon. gentlemen opposite, who ought to set a good example to the House and their party, should have forgotten those honourable rules which ought to subsist between the members of this Assembly, in the endeavour to fix on me a charge which, whatever may be my failings, I certainly am not so stupid as to be guilty of, and which I say, without hesitation, the great majority of th© House . _ .._ believes to be without foundation." No wonder Lord JOHN MANNERS instantly rose to his feet—imme- diately upon Mr. BRIGHT resuming his seat upon the Treasury bench—with the severe, yet temperate, but at the same time almost scornful re- mark—" The right hon. gentleman used, towards the close of his speech, language which, fortunately, is seldom heard in tills House"— a reproof at which the House cheered ! Is there really no hope that, with all hi's splendid qualities, the greatest orator of the house of Com►nons, ono of the most (ILinterested of public men, and, to our thinking, also one of the most far-seeing of all living politicians, may ouo of these days reveal some glimmering sense of what is meant among ordir.ary mortals by good temper and good taste, to say nothing of moderate tact or of ordinary di-scrotion. IF Sir ROUNDELL PALMER'S very powerful speech had been made in the House of Lords, the majority in favour of Lord STANHOPE'S amendment would have been a good deal more than seven. His argu ment is that Parliament, has given up to the Protestant Episcopalian communion the churches and the cathedrals without charge, and has given the clergy of that communion the right or pre-emp tion on easy terms as regards the glebes and manses. Therefore a measure proposing to deal perfect justice to all religions ought to give the Roman Catholics clergy something, and . the least that it can give them is glebes and manses. The reply that it is impossible to do so because the nation will not consent to it, he held to be prompted by that very principle of Protestant ascendancy which Mr. GLADSTONE desired to destroy. In other words, Protestants still claim the right of vetoing the State support of all religions whereof they disapprove. The speeches made by Ministers did not touch this point at all. They, and especially Mr. BRIGHT, did not once condemn the proposed grant upon its own demerits, but simply because it was impossible to carry it. To use Mr. BRIGHT'S emphatic words, the influence of the most powerful Minister, and none has ever been more powerful than Mr. GLADSTONE, would break and shiver like broken glass if he were to endeavour to endow the Roman Catholic clergy of Ireland. What, then, is the use of discussing it ? Are the Conser vative party prepared to appeal to the country with the cry of concurrent endowment ? If not, if they know that such an appeal would be fatal to them, why ask the Liberal party to make it ? This is not very exalted statesmanship, we are bound to con fess. But we do not see how the Government could have decided otherwise than it has done. Ministers, at all events, will not venture to force upon the country a measure which the country will not hear of. The Lords may prove more bold, but if they do, they will scarcely be so prudent. The utter disorganisation which pervades the Con servative party at the present time with regard to this question might well serve as a warning to the Libe rals how they involved themselves in like trouble. On the one side we see Lord DERBY and Lord CAIRNS ; on the other side Lord SALISBURY. Mr. DISRAELI, who every one supposed favoured concurrent endow ment, has now sided with the two first peers, who are resolutely opposed to it; Mr. HARDY, who was believed to be the very incarnation of High Tory Protestantism, has declared himself in favour of it. , Thus confusion is worse confounded. The concurrent scheme being disposed of, it was necessary to fall back upon . the Government pro posal. That we have always held to be the nearest approach possible to the cy pr es principle. Education would be equally near under some circumstances ; but in Ireland national education is bound to be secular, and therefore in that country the relief of the sick and the afflicted is most akin to religious purposes. The objection that the application of money in this way would be merely a lightening of the bur dens of the landlords does not seem to hold good, since the proposed asylums are intended, not so much for the relief of sick paupers, as of those who in this country would resort to the hospitals and asylums supported by voluntary contributions. There are lamentably few of these in Ireland. Mr, GLAD STONE intimated that Government might be dis- posed to adopt in part Lord SHAFTESB URY'S proposal to lend the surplus money to fisher- men and others. We trust that he wi] not do this. It is one of the great merits of his present scheme that it will not increase the evil which it seeks to relieve. Almsgiving is the surest in centive to mendicity. But while money given to idiots and the blind and the mute will not cause any addi tion to these unhappy classes, the loan system would open the door to innumerable applicants, and, we fear, to not a little jobbery. It would, moreover, be a violation of the principle hitherto so carefully observed, that money originally devoted to a religious use shall continue to be so devoted. THE Haymarket does at least seem to serve the purpose of chewing up the merits and demerits, the shortcomings and excesses of our police force. The history of that most famous of infamous streets is written in the registers of the police-courts, and it is not often that its monotonous record presents anything- worthy of public notice. But when a Haymarket case is exceptional, it is generally because it furnishes us with some valuable informa tion touching that recondite study—the habits and customs of British policemen. Such a case, furnish ing material for very serious reflection, was heard in a metropolitan police-court on Thursday. A charge of the usual drunk and disorderly type was preferred against three young men by some police men. The offenders had been found in the Hay market, after one o'clock, making a disturbance. They were drunk, said the guardians of the peace ; they refused to "move !on ;" when taken into custody they made use of foul language ; and, worst of all, kicked. The case is precisely of the kind which end uniformly in the choice of fine or imprison ment being offered to the culprits; but this time the denofiment was very different. The prisoners not only denied every item of the evidence given by the policemen, but they brought such corroborative testimony that the magistrate expressed himself bound to believe them, to dismiss the case, and to convict the upholders of the law of false swearing. The three unfortunate young men were clerks in a banking establishment not far from the Haymarket; they had been engaged late, had partaken of supper at the bank, and were going home in a perfectly sober state. Arrived at a cab-stand in the Haymarket, they deliberated a little as to engaging a cab, and were forthwith ordered to move on. One of them was roughly pushed, and, on remonstrating, taken into custody. Another youth, who protested against this treat ment, was struck on the head, and likewise carried off to a police-station. The third, who in timated his intention of lodging a complaint, was violently kicked, knocked down, assailed with abuse, and finally incarcerated. S uc h was the version of the affair given by the three clerks, and there could be no doubt of its accuracy, and consequently no doubt of the brutality and per jury of the police. The youths were of undoubted respectability, one of them the son of a professional man. Business was the cause of their appearance in the llaymarket at a late hour. It was proved that tbey had left the bank in a perfectly sober condition, and it was shewn that the encounter took place only five or ten minutes afterwards. Independent wit nesses attested not only that they were sober, but that the conduct of the police had been violent :without provocation. Medical testi mony deposed that blows had been inflicted. Beyond doubt the charge against them was not merely groundless, but wilfully false. Happily, the case came before a magistrate—Mr. KNOX—who is not disposed to attach peculiar and special credence to witnesses in uniform. Making every allowance for the time and place, the confusion incidental to the most disorderly of thorough fares, the magistrate confidently gave judgment that the policemen- had committed an assault and bad endeavoured to exculpate themselves by perjury. Pro secution on a charge of false swearing may probably do something to prevent a recurrence of this flag rant betrayal of trust, whilst the three youths escape without injury to character. But the affair is serious, notwithstanding this fortunate ending. It might have ended very differently. Had there been no corroborative testi mony it is very probable that the youths, even if they had escaped at all, would have been subjected to an exposure which would not, as in this case, have left them free from suspicion. There are un doubtedly many instances in which the evidence of a policeman is opposed against the unsup ported evidence of a defendant, and in which the former wrongly obtains the preference. The imputation of being drunk and disorderly must, if left uncleared, have proved ruinous to these three young men. Their position enabled them to engage counsel, and good fortune enabled them to bring for ward impartial witnesses. But whatmust be theconse quences sometimes, where the inculpated person is too poor to obtain this assistance ? It is unfortunate, certainly, that at a time when we find the power entrusted to the police insufficient, we also find that it would be dangerous to entrust them with more. £27,105 3 2 6,747 19 9 10,177 16 1 145 17 6 .. £24,396 17 10 1,951 13 7 COREESI:OI4DELGE FED/a PARIS. (FROM OUR OWN COMIESPONDENT.) PARIS, T.P.IDAT, July 16. The parturition of the Ministry is not yet complete ; nevertheless, we learn from the ritldic the names of the new Cabinet--if I may use this term—and the Public is an authority to which full credence may be given in a matter of this kind. The list of the new Government is not by any means striking. France did not expect much from the Emperor in respect of changing his officers, and it has got less than it expected. The principal modifica tion announced by the Pu?die is the substitution of Prince de la Tour d'Auvergne, the Ambassador at London, for M. de la Valette at the Foreign Office. The Prince is not a particula•-ly active diplomatist, but he is calm, steady, not fond of embroglios, and, altogether, a much snore suitable personage than M. Drouyn de Lhuys. This latter official was he who retired in order to give colour Ito the assumption that France did not desire a war with Prussia. I 3 is taking office again would infallibly be regarded as a 1.,(1 sign, no matter what might be the need for his services. There are some other small changes ; but they are very small indeed. Altogether the Ministry, if this list in the Public be correct, will remain substantially unaltered, The Tiers Parti does not come in. A much more important question than any minor changes in the personnel of the Cabinet is " What will become of M. Rouher ?" Will he take the Presidency of the Senate, or will he return to office ? The post held by the late M. Troplong is one of high honour and emolument, a post of authority, and one seemingly in all respects well fitted for M. Rouher. Few persons would object to see him in that capacity. He is able ; and his services wouldstill be retained by the Empire, whilst his position as President of the Senate would be far less obtrusively offensive than his paramount authority as Minister of State. But I am sorry to say rumours are current to-day that he will not be thus shelved. The Tempe, as well as other journals, fears that the Emperor still clings to the adviser who has played such an important part in the history of the Empire during the last few years. It is said that M. Drouyn de Lhuys has declined office through dread of M. Rouher's secret influence, and though his refusal is not to be regretted, it is to be feared that other politicians whose services might be valuable will hold back from the same reason. We are yet, however, in a state of complete uncertainty. It may be that the retirement of M, Rouher is final, and if so, the country will take any Ministry the Emperor likes to offer. The fifty-five miserable deputies whose elections remain unconfirmed had an audience of the Emperor yesterday, His Majesty gave them a gracious, but evasive, reception. In reply to their request that the Corps L6gislatif be again convened, and the verification proceeded with, the Emperor replied that he regretted the necessity of the situation; but there was no help for it. The Ministerial crisis rendered the prorogation indispensable. As soon as a Ministry was formed the Chamber should meet again. The arrest of a English bankrupt, named Lamb, has caused a great outcry at Rotterdam, where the capture took place. He was arrested on a charge of fraudulent bankruptcy by the police of Rotterdam, acting in concert with an English detective. But it was afterwards found that the extradition treaty between the two countries provides only for robbery, properly se called, and murder, not for fraudulent bankruptcy. Th e English Consul was constrained to set him at liberty, Lamb went on his way rejoicing, hut his rapture was of short duration. Sometime after his realease he fell in with two agreeable fellow-countrymen, who induced him to go for a walk. The walk—undesignedly of course —took the direction of the quay, and of that part of the quay where the Waterloo, a steamer trading between London and Rotterdam, was lying. The two men endeavoured to get Lamb on board this vessel, but he refused. They then got hold of him, fairly carried him off by force, and lodged him on board the steamer, which straightway started for London. The two men were detectives. Such is the story as told by a correspondent of the Temps, and great is the indignation caused by it at Rotterdam. Lamb is, it appears, no very creditable character; nobody can regret his fate ; but the question is, was not the con- duct of the English police an illegal act of violence? French justice has set you in England an excellent example. The directors of the Socidte Immobiliere have been been declared responsible to theshareholders, and that the latter are entitled to compensation. The directorsmust refund the total amount of the bonds brought by them in the two years ending April 1867. The case was not unlike that of Overend and Gurney—the directors were charged with inducing the shareholders to invest through a false prospectus. But in France, it seems, such offenders are punishable ; in England the weight of their offences falls on the shareholders. A man has just been condemned to death in the Seine Assize Court for the murder of a widow with whom he co habited, and her son, a child of 11. He beat out the brains of his victims with a hatchet. Jealousy, he said, was the motive of his crime; but, for once, the jury found no extenu ating circumstances, and he received capital sentence. When judgment was given a voice in the court was heard, " lie has only got what he deserves." The voice was that of the man's own daughter. There is bad news from the colliery district. The me morial de la Loire states that bodies of twenty or thirty of the pitmen on strike are wandering about the country in the neighbourhood of St. Etienne, forcing the inhabitants to supply them with food and drink. Those bands do not, however, always confine themselves to levying requisi tions, and in several cases they have commiLed acts of violence. THE ULSTER RIOTS. A correspondent telegraphs that the excitement in Ireland is gradually cooling down, On Thursday night there was a disturbance in Shankin-road, Belfast. The mob was pursuing a man, who took shelter amongst some trees on the lawn of the Rev. Isaac Nelson, Presbyterian clergyman. Mr. Nelson went to intercede with the mob for the man, when both were brutally ill-used. Mr. Nelson's brother having come up, was also severely beaten. All three lie in a dangerous condition. At Lurgan and at Newry all is quiet. TAMPERING KITH THE MILITARY BY FENIA ICS. At the Kerry Assizes on Thursday Patrick Naligan was tried for attempting to abduce soldiers from their allegiance. Prisoner produced to Corporals Geary and Griffiths in a public-house at Tralee a Prayer Book, and wanted to swear them in as members of the Fenian brotherhood. Tho soldiers gave him into custody. The prisoner was acquitted on the ground that he was not sober at the time. The trial of the Ballpheigue policeman for shooting at the people is postponed until the next assizes, O'Hare, who was danger- Qualv wounded, being unable to attend. THE NEW BEER ACT. The Now Beer Act came into operation on Thursday, hav ing received the Royal assent. The bill, whose object in to amend tho law for licensing beerhouses, and to make some alterations in the sale of beer, cider, and wino by retail,: was prepared and brought forward by Mr. Selwin Ibbetson, Mr. Akroyd, and Mr. Headlam. It gives new and stringent powers to the magistrates and police in dealing with beerhouse-keepers who contravene the terms of their license. Hitherto the control of beerhouses has practically been taken out of the hands of the magistrates and the police. Any person, if his premises were of sufficient rate able value, could obtain a license from the Excise to sell beer, and if he offended against the law in the ma nagement of his house it was difficult to obtain a conviction. The number of beer-houses was consequently very large. In Liverpool - when the last police report was published there were 6,522. The number has since increased, and many of them are badly conducted. The now Act provides that no license for the sale of beer by retail shall henceforth be given except on a certificate granted by the justices for ono year. Certificates may be refused if the applicant fails to produce evidence of charac ter ; if the house or shop is frequented by persons of doubtful character; if tho applicant has been previously disqualified by misconduct from receiving a license. Tho justices will re quire the same evidence of character in the applicants for beerhouse licenses as they do for publichouse licenses, only they will have to specify the grounds of their decision. Con stables my enter houses licensed to sell beer not to ho consumed on the premises, and proof of money passing is not necessary to prove sale. The lodger difficulty is met by clause 14, which provides that if any person suffer beer to be drunk in his house at any tints during which it ought to be closed he shall bo liable to a penalty of 40e. nose persons who are found in a beer hom e during illegal hours are also liab7o to a penalty. Jus tices will not have the power to refuse a cettiGcate of re newal of citsCng leer licenses, unless the holder shall have been more than once convicted under th's act. The damages in the action by Murphy against the Mayor of. Birmingham are laid at £l,OOO. It is said that Mr. Newdegate, Mr. Charley, and one or ttvo other promi nent members of the ultra-Protestant party, are supporting the prosecution. Reductions iu the Coastguard cervice are, it is stated, about to be made by the Government. The first step in this direction will be immediately taken by the abolition of the Coastguard stations at Sittingbourne and Conyer, on the Kentish coneit.

A BEGGING IMPOSTOR.—Dennis S weoney, a sturdy , broad-shouldered Irish mendicant, was charged with begging. Harris, a police-constable, produced an immense bundle containing bread and butter, and bread and meat, an d , relishes in the shape of ancho v i es , s h r i m p s p a ste, an d sardines. Mr. Paget—What is that large package ? Harris—Provisions, sir. He went from house to hous e begging for bread and butter or a little bit of meat, aud he obtained this lot, and he was getting more when stopped him. Mr. Paget—He is a most impudent mendicant. The Prisoner—The good people gave meself a little bit of bread and mate for the poor children. Mr. Paget—There's quite enough for a festival. T he policeman can hardly carry the bundle, and you have bee n indulged with delicacies and relishes. I shall nut &JO* you to ba indulged with any of the good things in that bundle, but sentence you to seven days' imprisonment, spare dietary, and hard labour in the House of Oorrection• The policeman asked what he was to do with the Wl' die of provisions. Mr. Paget—Give it to the really deserving poor in t he Workhouse. The Police-constable—That I will do, sir. LADY SWIMMERS.—On Thursday evening A Ve i l novel display took place at the Serpentine, Hyde Per k * It was the exhibition of the swimming powers of two young ladies, Charlotte, aged 22, and Jane, aged 17, the daughters of Mr. Humphreys, the swimming master of the Serpentine ,Club. The young ladies, habited in t he most piquant costume, " took water " at the si de of the river and with the utmost ease swam across to the opposite bank, a fact hitherto unaccomplished. The father, with Mr. Evans, Mr. Dyson, and some other friends followed the ladies in a boat to render assistance in eat of emergency, but not the slightest aid was required. The art of swimming is of groat importance, and it i° re markable that few l a di es s h ou ld b e so pro fi c i en t in the a r t with the facilities for learning that now exist.
