" The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from this distressing malady by translating this little book, and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhcea and the various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of the malady."—Medical Circular.

It contemplates no export duties to en hance the price of any natural product with the view of making it artificially dear to those who require it ; but it gives free scope to industry, the common market of the world to all, and a healthy, generous rivalry as the result. One word, before I conclude, in answer to those who pretend to justify Mr. Gladstone in the course he is intent on pursuing with reference to the paper trade. 4D STAMPED, SP. ANEVER FAILING REMEDY.- Dr. SCOTT'S BILIOUS and LIVER PILLS, pre pared without any mercurial ingredient, from the recipe of Dr. Scott, of Bromley, Kent, are a sure'remedy for affections of the liver, indigestion, bile, sick headache, giddiness, loss of appe tite, lowness of spirits, &c. They can be taken at any time, without any danger from wet or cold, act mildly on the bowels, without pam or griping, clear the skin, remove sallowness and pimples, purify the blood, brace the nerves, and invigo rate the whole system. Sold by most druggists, in boxes, is. lid. and 2s. 9d. each. Be sure to ask for Dr. Scott's Bilious and Liver Pills. The genuine are a square green package, with " William Lambert, 20, Jermyn-street,' en graved on the Government stamp. It is said this is the old, old tale of the corn laws, the cry of the glassmaker, the soapboiler, the brick maker, &c. Nothing can be more deliberately false than such a statement. Throughout the whole range of agricultural, commercial, and manu facturing industry there is not one instance within my knowledge where an export duty is levied on the raw material of a British manufacture concur rently with a free admission of foreign manufac tured goods of the same description. But if there were a single instance of the sort, is it a reason be• cause you have done wrong in one case why you. should continue your evil courses ? And the statement that this wholesale destruc tion of the paper trade is right " in the interest of the consumer " is equally false. Who are the consumers of paper ? Not certainly the newspaper proprietors, nor yet the publishers; they are the manufacturers of books and news papers. The consumers of paper are those who buy books and newspapers, those who buy tea, coffee, and other groceries wrapped up in paper,, who buy ironmongery, clothing, and other neces saries of life similarly wrapped up. We are told distinctly that, as far as the penny newspaper is concerned, "no one dreams of its becoming cheaper." Will books be cheaper because the publisher saves a farthing or a halfpenny per volume on the cost of his paper ? Will the working man buy his tea, his sugar, or his coffee any cheaper because the grocer saves id. per lb. on his paper. 1. admit frankly that the effect of maintaining a differential ld. per lb. on foreign paper is practi cally to make paper dearer than it would be were it repealed; but the paper maker is no gainer by this he pays the whole penny, and something more, on the cost of his material, and, to some extent, the public are reimbursed by the higher price they ob tain for their refuse. IN But let the incidence rest where it may, the main tenance of a differential duty at the Customs is an absolute necessity to maintain the trade of paper-- making in existence in this country, so long as the foreign export duty or tag tax is levied upon us ; and it will be well that the members of the House of Commons should pause before they allow any merely party interests or party feeling to obscure the great and important principle of international justice which is here involved.—l am, sir, yours, &c., THOMAS WRIGLEY.

" A protracted and irregular discussion ensued, after which the house divided— For the clause Against l4 Majority —4B Mr. BUTT suggested the omission of the words ex chiding persons whose h&ses might be suspected of being frequented by members of an unlawful society. Mr. DEASY said he had no desire to retaiu the'words in question. • Some other amendments were proposed and agreed to, and the clause, as amended, was adopted. Clauses 14 to 19 inclusive were agreed to. On clause 20, - Lord' FERMOY objected to the clause which he con sidered as conferring an arbitrary and oppressive power on the police. By the clause, if any person should refuse ad mittance to the polio he might be fined £5, and deprived of his license for two _years. The noble lord concluded by moving the omission of the clause. Colonel DUNNE emported sAiNpudinente...,44, • Dig•Aie said that parties who took out licenses under the act were aware of the conditions which were im posed. This provision exactly corresponded with a similar provision of the English Act. However, he would have no objection to limit the right of entrance to the houses when the houses were licensed for selling refreshments. The clause, with this latter amendment, was agreed to, as were the clauses to 25. On clause 26, Mr. DEASY moved an amendment, conferring on in spectors of constabulary the same powers of inspection as those enjoyed by the inspectors of excise. The clause, as amended, was agreed to. Clauses 27 to 36 inclusive were agreed to. On clause 37, Colonel DUNNE moved the substitution of " supervisor of excise of the district" for "trbasurer of the county." The object of the amendment was to provide that the ex penses of prosecution should be defrayed, not by the coun ties in which they took place, but Ly the excise. The committee divided, and the numbers were— For the clause 65 Against it Majority The amendment was accordingly negatived. Some other amendments were then moved, but the de bate was interrupted, it being 1 o'clock. The sitting was then suspended. The house resumed at 6 o'clock. THE EMPEROR OF THE FRENCH. - -44 Mr. B. COCHRANE said that yesterday he put a ques tion to the noble lord the Secretary for Foreign Affairs as to an article in a newspaper of which the noble lord said he had no knowledge. He now begged to ask the noble lord, in distinct terms, whether a letter from the Emperor of the French had been transmitted to the noble lord of the most friexdly character; whether that letter had not been sub. milted to the Cabinet on Saturday last ; and if such a letter had been received, whether the noble lord would have any objection to lay it upon the table. (Oh, oh, and laughter.) Lord J. RUSSELL, who was very indistinctly heard, said—l of course could not answer a question, with respect to an article in a newspaper which I had not seen, but with regard to the question now put to me by the hon. gentle man, I beg to say that the Ambassador of the French did communicate to me a letter addressed to him—a private letter of the Emperor of the French —which was of the most friendly character towards this country, and expressing a desire that the policy of the two countries might continue to be identical. But the letter was a private ene, and though I certainly did feel it right to communicate it to my col leagues, I do not think I should be justified in laying it upin the table of this house. EUROPEAN FORCES (INDIA BILL.) Lord PALMERSTON moved that notices of motion be postponed until after the order of the day for the considera tion of the European Forces (India) Bill as amended in committee. Mr. HADFIELD said he would ask the noble lord at the head of the Government whether, after the friendly message from the Emperor of the French, he would press his motion for fortifications. (Laughter.) In justice to the house, at this period of the session, and in justice to the country, now heavily burdened, he hoped that no fur ther progress would be made with works which he believed if commenced would cost 20 millions instead of 12, and which, when finished, would be of n,, real use. The noble lord might depend upon it that if ever the day came whot the stout hearts and stalwart arms of the people of this country were insufficient to defend it from invasion, fortifi cations would be of little avail, Sir H. WILLOUGHBY asked the noble lord whether he could now fix a day for the third reading of the bill. Lord PALMERSTON said that he had every lisposition to give an opportunity for a full and fair discussion upon the third reading of the bill, and perhaps that day week would be convenient for all parties. (Hear, hear, and a cry of " Earlier.") Thursday next was set apart for the ques tion of fortifications, and perhaps that subject might be ad journed till Friday, and the paper duties were to come on upon Monday, so that Tuesday seemed the best day. (" Friday, Friday.") Well, then, he would propose Friday for the third reading, contingent upon the conclusion of the debate upon fortifications. • The bill as amended was then agreed to, and the third re .ding fixed for Friday. CIVIL SERVICE ESTIMATES. Mr. SPOONER asked if it was intended to take the Civil Service Estimates to-morrow. Lord PALMER STON—CertainIy not. VOLUNTEER CORPS (IRELAND). Celonel FRENCH moved for leave to bring in a bill to extend to Ireland all powers to make rules and regulations for the enrolment and organisation of volunteer corps which are now by law applicable to Great Britain, urging the im policy as well as injustice of debarring the Executive Go vernment of Ireland—a part of the United Kingdom most exposed to invasion —from placing it in the same position in relation to the raising of volunteer corps as England and Scotland. Mr. CARDWELL, without distrusting the loyalty of the people of Ireland, or their readiness to rally round the Throne, and to resist any attempt at invasion, observed that considerations of great importance, in connection with the internal state of some parts of Ireland—to which he deli cately alluded—led the Government to the conclusion that it was not judicious or expedient to agree to the motion. Mr. MAGUIRE denounced the policy of the Government in not trusting the people of Ireland. If bad blood existed among them, the blame, he said, was attributable to the Government, which could put down Orange confederacies as well as Riband. The distrust shown to the people of Ire land confirmed the disaffection which existed in a large mass of them, who, armed cr unarmed, he believed, would meet invaders as foes. Lord PALMERSTON observed that Mr. Maguire had not held out great encouragement to the Government to depart from their intention, and to accept the proposal to place arms in the hands of the people of Ireland. On the part of the people of Ireland, however, ho denied the asper sion which Mr. Maguire had cast upon his countrymen. Ireland could not be said to be without means of defence with 60,000 trained men. After some further discussion, the motion was negatived upon a division by 8G to 30. BUSINESS OF THE HOUSE. Mr. W. E'\VART moved a series of resolutions for the better regulation of the business of the house. 1. That the discussion on the principle of a bill be confined to the time of its introduction and second or third reading. 2. That when, on a motion that the Speaker leave the chair for going into a committee of supply, any discu ss i on or d e b a t e arise, it be not continued beyond 8 of the clock. 3. That public bills which have been proceeded with in a previous session may be resumed at the stage which they left off at in the next session. 4. That bills introduced by the Go vernment be, as far as practicable,broughton and proceeded with early in the session. 5. That the best means of im proving and expediting the business of the house be consi dered by the Government in the interval between the ses sions, with a view to submitting the subject to the delibera tion of a select committee in the ensuing session of Parlia went. On the first resolution being put, Sir G. LEWIS, after some remarks upon the amount of precious time lost in extraneous discussions, and upon the difficulty o f laying down inflexible rules f or t h e government of debates, observed that it might be advisable from time to time to appoint a committee to consider the subject, and that such a committee might be appointed early next session. In the meantime, he thought it hardly worth while to discuss the proposed resolution. Mr. NEWDEGATE agreed with his hon, friend the member for Dumfries that it was necessary to put some limits to the mode of transacting the business of the house ; but if he recollected rightly, his hon. friend himself had introduced bills on Government nights. His opinion was that days appointed for the transaction of Government business should be exclusively devoted to the Government, and regarded as their own, and that other hen, members should not introduce measures on those days. (Hear.) Mr. WILLIAMS quite agreed with the motion of his hon. friend. The way in which the business of the house was conducted was most discreditable. They had to meet day after day at 12 o'clock, and sit till 2 or 3 the following morning. Lo ;d HOTHAM noticed the changes which had taken place in the mode of conducting business in his time, in the frequent adjournment of debates, members delivering prepared speeches who had not heard the previous debate, or attacking everybody, and then leaving the house, and he recommended a return to ancient practices. Mr. EWART rose to reply, but an hon. member moved that the house be counted, but by the time the glass run down there were 40 members present. The hon. member said that as the Government proposed to appoint a select committee on the subject he should withdraw his motion. He hoped, however, in the recess that the Government would turn their attention to the subject, and prepare some plan for the committee. The motion was then withdrawn. On the motion of an hon. member the house was counted, and there being only 33 members present it adjourned at 25 minutes to 9 o'clock. CUSTOMS _DUTY ON FOREIGN PAPER. TO THE EDITOR OE THE SUN. .11 SIR,—On Monday, the 6th o f A ugus t, a ft er a procrastination as elaborate as it is discreditable, the House of Commons will be asked to come to a decision as to the terms upon which foreign paper shall be admitted into this country ; and as upon the right determination of, this question depends of 4AV:the' ftitiireiTio4perity of trade of paper making, but also the prosperity of almost every other branch of commercial and manufacturing in dustry in this country, I consider the subject of such vital importance to the general interest as to justify me in again trespassing upon your space ; and, notwithstanding the abuse, the misrepresen tation, and obloquy to which I have been almost daily subjected from a section of the press, I will endeavour, with your permission, to bring under the notice of the commercial and manufacturing in terests the great principle which is involved in the determination of this apparently insignificant question. I use the term insignificant as a com parative term, not because the interests imme diately at stake are in themselves of small account, for the safety of a vast amount of property and the welfare of thousands of innocent and industrious people are involved in the issue, but because of the greater magnitude, and therefore the proportionate havoc which would be the consequence of applying the principle of legislation to those larger interests which is now, for the first time, sought to be ap plied to the paper trade. The question which I propose to bring under the notice of your readers is a broad on 3, in which every trade is interested that is in any degree de pendent upon a foreign source for the material which forms the basis of the manufacture ; and, although more than enough has been written to show the bearing and effect of the proposed legislation on the trade of papermaking, I may be permitted to use the facts in connection with this particular interest in illustration of the principle, which applies equally to other and larger interests. The question is, can we as a manufacturing nation afford to ignore and altogether put out of view foreign legislation when it takes the form of export duties levied upon raw materials, the product of foreign countries, and forming the basis of our manufactures, when we are fixing the terms upon which foreign manu factured goods shall be admitted to this country ? ' When an import duty is levied at the English port, or an Excise duty is exacted that has the effect of enhancing► the cost of any article of home manu facture, it seems to be an admitted principle that every similar article coming from abroad should be subjected to a Customs duty of equal amount; and the question now raised, and to which I desire to draw the attention of every one interested in the commercial prosperity of this country, is, whether an export duty levied abroad, for the benefit of a foreign Government, upon the raw materials we purchase from them, is not identical in its effect upon our manufacturing industry, in enhancing the cost of the manufactured article, to that of an Eng lish tax of the same amount; and, if so, why the manufactured goods of foreign countries should not he met by a countervailing import duty, as in the case of home taxation. The proposal to ignore foreign taxation and to admit foreign manufactured goods free from duty to this country, irrespective of whatever tax the foreigner may exact on the raw material of manu facture, is now made for the first time in connection with the trade of paper►naking, With the view, therefore, of illustrating the principle, and showing its practical operation, I shall shortly describe the position of the paper trade, and the consequences that must ensue in this particular case if Mr. Glad stone's proposal be permitted to pass into a law. The paper trade is one that is dependent for its raw material upon the refuse products of other ma nufacturing operations and of domestic life; the waste or refuse from the manufacture of linen and cotton and the cast-off garments of the people com prise the raw material of our manufacture. This refuse, which for any other purpose is utterly worthless, is converted into an article of first neces sity, and of the annual value of 'upwards of £6,000,000 ; ai,d, as nearly as I can estimate, from 40,000 to 50,000 people are employed in the manu facture. It is confined to no particular district, but spread over the whole country, often in remote places, where the facilities of good water are to be found. For upwards of 150 years a large amount of the revenue of this country has been derived from an excise duty on paper ; its amount has varied, but in recent years the tax has been 11 d. per lb. For the sake of simplification I omit the additional 5 per cent. we now pay. Previous to 1853 the Customs' duty stood at a prohibitive amount; but at that period, under the direction of the Government of the day, in which Mr. Gladstone was the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the Customs duties were revised, and 21d. per lb. was then fixed by Mr. James Wilson, now in India, and, as I am informed by Mr. John Wood, the then Chairman of the Board of Inland Revenue, as a bare equivalent to the taxation (home and foreign) borne by the home trade. This amount has remained un challenged up to the present day, it being known and understood that the differential ld. per lb. in excess of the Excise duty was intended to counter vail the foreign export duties levied abroad upon the rags used by the English paper makers, which duties are still levied, and amount to a tax of IZd. per lb. on the cost of paper. The foreign rag tax of lad, added to the Excise duty of 14(1. makes 2id. per lb., and allowing Id. per lb. as the inci dental costs of the Excise system, we have a taxa tion of 3d. per lb. on English paper, and an import duty on foreign paper of 20. per lb. Throughout the whole of the agitation for " the repeal of the taxes on knowledge " I can find no mention made of the injustice of this import duty; we have never until recently been stigmatised as " grasping monopolists ;" nor were we before aware that we have been battening on protection." It seemed to be considered a fair and just, and the only possible mode of counteracting the evil effect of foreign legislation ; 'and, if the principle were ad mitted, the amount cannot be brought into question against us, as the foreigner has had a clear advan tage of z ld. per pound. At the commencement of this year, without one moment's notice, and without a word of consultation with any member of the trade, Mr. Gladstone pro posed in his famous budget to repeal the Excise duty on paper, and at the same time to abolish the whole of the Customs duty on foreign paper. To the former of these proposals we raised no objec tion. The House of Lords rejected the bill for the re peal of the Excise duty, and now Mr. Gladstone insists upon reducing the Customs duty to the level of the Excise, notwithstanding the foreign rag tax is maintained in its integrity. This pro posal, it must be remembered, has no special refe rence to France, on the ground of the treaty, but applies equally to all countries whatsoever. We have from the first protested against this act, which we have represented as a virtual confiscation of our property ; and the Government appeared to have been entirely ignorant of the existence of ex port duties at all. They, however, assured us that efforts should be made to obtain the remission of tho-e duties, and we have been deluded from time to time by statements that their efforts were likely to be successful. The illusion has at length vanished ; the Govern ment is obliged to confess an entire failure in their negotiations : but, actuated by some unaccountable motive, Mr. Gladstone persists in his proposal to abolish the differential import duty on foreign paper, although the efforts that have been made to obtain the remission of the foreign export duties prove that the Government considered this a neces sary precursor to the alteration of the Customs' duty. We have not only shown theoretically that the foreign manufacturers have an advantage entirely due to the export duties levied upon us of £9 per ton, being 40 to 70 per cent. on the value of the rags, and ofnearly 11d. per lb., or equal to 25 per cent. on the cost of our paper, but we have laid before the Government demonstrative proofs that the foreig, makers are now competing with us in our own mar ket, in spite of the differential Id. per lb. now exacted on their paper ; and, notwithstanding we" have great reason to believe that many members of the Cabinet acknowledge the:justice of our claim, we are (as we suppose for party reasons) handed over to be dealt with as Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Bright think fit. Now, if this species of legislation can be defended on any theory of international justice, it is a prin ciple equally applicable to other trades and manu factures; and I will apply it theoretically, first, to the most important of our national manufactures— the cotton trade. We are dependent upon America for a supply of cotton to keep in profitable employment the vast amount of capital invested in mills and machinery, and the countless thousands who earn their daily bread in connexion with this gigantic manufacture; to say nothing of the merchants and the Qeople they employ. in dispersing the product of this great in dustry throughout the world. I now ask the Manchester Chamber of Commerce what view they would take of a proposal on the part of the American Government to levy an export duty, not of 50 or 60 per cent., as in our case, but say 10 or 15 per cent. on the cotton coming to this country, and that, notwithstanding such a proposal, Mr. Gladstone insisted upon admitting American cloth and yarn free to this country, and to our colonies abroad. America is ambitious to rival Great Britain in her manufacturing greatness, and, finding the principle admitted in the case of paper, she may, by the mere exercise of her will—for she has the power in her own hands—l say she may take this means of strik ing at the root of our manufacturing supremacy. And suppose she did; what, I ask again, would you, the Manchester Chamber of Commerce, say under such circumstances to a proposal from Mr. Gladstone to admit American cloth free to this country ? Would you stand by and watch the drapers mea suring out American calico while the English mills were standing idle and the people starving. Will any one dare to say that any member of that Chamber, no matter what his political creed may be, would affirm the principle, and declare, in the words of Mr. Gladstone, that it wasbut the develop ment of the Free-trade principle that this country has been walking up to since 1846 ? No—at the first mention of such an intention the fast train would carry the whole Chamber to London and with the chairman at their head, Downing-street would be stormed and taken in 48 hours. " But," says some simpering doctrinaire, such a course would be but just in the interest of the con- sumer." Pursue; then, your system to its legitimate con clusion, and see where it will land you. What say you, men of Leeds, of Halifax, and Bradford, to the admission of Continental woollens, they levying an export duty on the wool they pro duce, and which you purchase ? What say you, denizens of the sister isle, why Russia should not levy an export duty on her hemp and flax, and send you in lieu thereof her manufac tured linen cloth ? You, men of Belfast, would surely receive so great a boon, and admit it free from duty, for in so doing you would be able to rest from your labour, and feel satisfied that you would be acting in the " interest of the consumer." And you of Coventry and Macclesfield, Spital fields and Paisley, would not you, too, desire to add to the blessings you now enjoy that of an export dnty on raw silk, and a free admission of foreign manufactured silks ? And you of Northampton, Stafford, Norwich, and Glocester, are you content that the French Emperor —in the exercise of that paternal care which he so benignly manifests for the welfare of the European family—should save you from all further trouble and anxiety by an ordonnance directing am export duty to be levied on all foreign leather, concur rently with a proposal from Mr. Gladstone that foreign gloves and shoes should be admitted free to this country 11 And now, having carried out this politico-econo mical theory to its legitimate conclusion—having worked out the principle enunciated by a public writer on the subject, who says, " If an article can be made cheaper abroad than at home," no matter whether this be the result of foreign legislation, of foreign taxation upon our raw material or not, " let it be made abroad"—where, I ask, are your con sumers ? It is true we may have cheaper paper, cheaper cotton, cheaper woollens, silks, linens, shoes, and gloves—but where is the purchasing power, the money wherewith to buy ? Do not say that this is a wild, an impossible theory ; it is but the measure which is meted out to the English paper-maker by the combined action of Mr. Gladstone and the Continental Governments. We are told by the Government that if we cannot meet ti competitor who, by means of a tax levied upon us by foreign Governments, and from which he is exempt, has an advantage over us in the cost of his paper of 25 per cent., " that we must seek out some other occupation." If this be justice Co the paper-maker, why should not the same measure be meted out to every other trade ? And what is to prevent an extended appli cation of the same principle ? When it has become noised abroad among the nations that England is willing to retire from business, that she has already retired from the business of making paper,—prefer ring to sell her rags to the Americans and buy her paper from the Germans and the Belgians,—is it to be supposed that foreign nations are so ignorant, so blind to their own interests as not to give a cordial assent to the principle by extending its operations to other branches of manufacture ? I know that the full measure of such a calamity is impossible. But why ? Because, long before it could be consummated, the consumers, the people in whose interest this absurd doctrine of what is falsely and dishonestly termed "free trade" is put forth, would rise up and destroy their oppressors. They would demand to be governed by men who would have some sympathy with their countrymen, who would study the practical rather than the theoreti cal ; who would take humanity as it is, and not as they would ha ve it ; and who would recognise the laws of God—that man shall live by the sweat of his brow, in preference to any merely human theory. Nor is this at variance with the principle of free trade in its highest, noblest, best sense. Heaven ordained that each portion of the human family should produce that for which the people and the climate were best fitted; that where from the nature of the climate, the skill of the people, the BERWICK ELECTION COMMISSION. BERWICK-ON-TWEED, JULY 30. The royal commission, consisting of Mr. James Vaughan, Mr. Franklin Lushington, and Mr. Thomas Irwin Bastow, appointed to inquire into the existence of corrupt practices in this old border town, commenced its sittings in the town-hall this morning. Mr. Vaughan, the chairman, opened the proceed ,ngs.with a short address. M. Thomas Allan, sheriff of Berwick, deposed to an election which took place on the 20th August, 1859. Mr. J. C. Weddell, solicitor, and under-sheriff at the last election,' gave a history of the recent elec tions. In the last contest, Mr. Marjoribanks beat Mr. Hodgson, the Conservative candidate, by one vote. Berwick is an ancient borough. He said it has returned members since the reign of James I. Up to the passing of the Reform Act, the consti tuency was entirely freemen. At that time he could not tell their numbers. In '59 the consti tuency was 814. There are 376 freemen. From his experience as an agent, he was not aware whether freemen or £lO householders are more corrupt. The repulation on the subject is different. The class most open, it is generally supposed, are the ancient freemen. Had heard no precise number said to be under the influence of corrupt practices. Should think there were not 100. There might be a considerable number. The rental of these parties vary from .£lO to £lOO. The average might be from .£lO to £25. Mr. Robert Horn, town clerk of Berwi c k, was then examined, an d his evidence was followed by that of Mr. Launcelot Turner Fleming, election auditor ; and of Mr. Robert Douglas, solicitor in Lerwick, and agent of Mr. Maijoribanks at the last election. Mr. Stephen Saunderson, also a solicitor at Ber wick, and under-sheriff, produced the poll-book and register, and the inquiry was adjourned to ten o'clock to-morrow. CITY COMMISSION OF SEWERS. Yesterday the Commissioners of Sewers for the City of London held a court for the despatch of business, at Guildhall, Deputy Christie acting as chairman. With regard to the sanitary condition of the City, Dr. Letheby, the medical officer of health, re ported on the state of 241 houses that had been inspected during the week, of which 61 are com mon lodging-houses, and he submitted a list of 83 places for sanitary improvement. The mortality returns are still remarkably favourable, for there were but 33 deaths in the course of the week, although the average for the season is 48. In fact, the average weekly return for the whole of the month has been only 36, whereas the number for the corresponding period of the last finer years is 52 ; 15, •r nearly half, of the deaths wore among children of less than five years of age, and 6 among old persons. The prihcipal causes of death were as follows .—Diarrhoea, 4 (of which 3 were infants); scarlet fever, 2 ; and one from each of the following—measles, small-pox, and fever; making together 9 deaths from zymotic affections. There were only 4 deaths from pulmonary diseases— namely, 3 from phthisis and one from bronchitis. 57 births were registered in the week, 28 girls and 29 boys. The customary order was made by the commissioners for the sanitary improvement of the several places indicated in the medical officer's report. The committee on general purposes reported the circumstance that hides are allowed to re main in Leadenhall-market beyond the regulatei 1 hours, and the court empowered the inspector , acting under the instructions of the City solicitor, to take steps for securing the rigid observance of 'the regu lations on that subject. The committee also re ported that they had taken into consider ation the letter of Dr. Letheby on the evil effects of gas leakage from the street mains and pipes,, and that from communications they had had with the three gas companies supplying the City it appeared that whilst the leakage was a source of Brea t loss to them, which they had endeavoured to p revent as far as possible, the result of their exueri ence was that the proposed remedies have failed to effect the desired object. Agreeably to instrucEons given to the committee at the last court, they kad exa mined the candidates for the office of inspector of slaughter-houses and meat, and had nsualic three,, from whom to elect as persons qualified for tn j o . office. One of the three the court elected—v S. mi Intte th e e reportedd district of f e s vr t .man, Pancrasw ho . had tr he filled a improvement similar cm. office that they had had words inserted nwtohuelaA .b ring it dultera tion of Food Prevention Bill which within the powers of thecourttouse i:ts provi sions. They, also reported thatthe L oconix Con Bill in Parliament, the object of which is und( ;I 'stood to have been to facilitate the metropolitan sti tsaet traffic by means of tramways, had be en w i thdra 97n. They had likewise examined the Local Taxatio Returns Bill, the Highways and Roads Bill, 'the Local Board of Health Bill, and the Nuisances Removal Bill, and were of opinion that they did n Jot call for the interference of the court. A casual conversation arose on a ce ntreversv between Dr. Letheby, the medical elfin.' 'er of the commission, and Dr. Hoffman, acting on the part of the Met ro p o li tan Board of Vorks, as to the best means of deodorising the Thames; but the full in formation not being before the court on the subject it was postponed until it came up for discussion. The remaining business transacted by the com missioners was of a routine character, disposal they adjourned over their customary recess in August. and after its It is stated in a letter from Triesbe :that the Queen Dowager of Naples is expected there alm oat every day, in the war steamer Elizabeth: and that a I - Ma near Vienna, belonging to Baron Pereira, has be( to i =c h ase d for her Majesty.

On the motion that this bill be committed, Lord REDESDALE said, as the bill was drawn it en abled the trustees to apply the whole of the money voted by Parliament for the support of the students, t 6 repairs of the college. He was sure that could not be the intention of the promoters of the bill, and he thought some alteration ought to be made to remedy such a defect. The Duke of ARGYLL said the bill had the sanction of the noblemen and gentlemen constituting the visiting body to whom Parliament hid intrusted the affairs of the oollege. Ike thought those authorities were well fitted to be trusted with discretionary power. After a few words from the Duke of LEINSTER and the Earl of MAYO, Lord REDESDALE said the object of the bill was to enable the authorities to complete the unfinished college of St. Patrick at Maynooth. He wanted to know how much money it would take to complete those repairs. The Duke of SOMERSET said the bill only empowered the authorities to borrow a certain sum of money on the security of the annual grant of £30,000, it did nothing else. The house then went into committee. Clause 1 was agreed to. On clause 2 being read, Viscount DUNGANNON objected to the largeness of the sum to be expended in repairs, and if he was successful in finding a seconder, he would move that clause 2 be struck out of the bill. Earl GRANVILLE defended the clause. Viscount DUNGANNON was strongly of (Onion that it was absolutely necessary to put down a certain sum to be ex pended in repairs of the College. If that was not done he felt certain Parliament would be called upon at some time or other for a further sum of money, to make good losses that had been incurred through the expenditure upon re pairs. He should move that £15,000 be the sum to be ex pended upon the college, and no more. He objected strongly to give the authorities indefinite power to raise money. _ _ After a short conversation, Viscount DUNGANNON with drew his amendment, and the bill passed through com mittee. Upon the bringing up of the report Lord REDESDALE moved an amendment, which was agreed to, and the report was received. COMMITTEE.

FELONY AND MISDEMEANOUR BILL. Lord BROUGHAM moved the third reading of this bill, which was agreed to. MILITIA BALLOT BILL. After a few words from the Earl of DONOUGIIMORB and the Marquis of SALISBURY, the motion was agreed to. The bill was read a second time. HERRING FISHERIES (SCOTLAND) BILL. This bill was read a third time. The Titles to Land (Scotland) Bill and Party Emblems (Ireland) Bill were severally read a third time and passed. The reports of amendments on the Police and Towns Improvement (Scotland) Act Amendment Bill, and on the County Coroners Bill were brought up and agreed to. NEW ZEALAND BILL. On the motion for the third reading of this bill, , Lord LYTTELTON hoped that the house would see the necessity of postponing this bill until next session. He strongly objected to the system of withdrawing colonial questions from the influence of colonial authority, and ex pressed a hope that the Home Government would before long give the colonists more power of discussing suck ques tions as the bill involved. He moved that the bill be read a third time that day three months. Lord LYVEDEN supported the motion. Lord GRANVILLE did not see the propriety of post poning the bill for another session. He briefly explained under what circumstances the Government had introduced this measure in the Imperial Parliament. Lord DERBY would not like to take the responsibility of rejecting this measure on himself. He preferred leaving the responsibility of passing it with the Government. The bill was read a third time. Their Lordships then adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS.(NESTERDAY.) The SPEAXER took the chair at twenty minutes after twelve o'clock, PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Lords' amendments to the Llangollen and Corwen Railway Bill were considered and agreed to. The Fergus River Navigation Improvement, &c., Bill was read a third time and passed. THE PAPER' DUTY. • The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, with regard to his motion with respect to the paper duty, which stood for Monday next, that it was the intention of . Go vernment to divide that motion into two parts. The importation from France was under the obligation of a treaty, and he would make that the subject of a separate resolution. The importation of paper from other countries would be brought forward in another resolution, thereby adopting the same course they had taken in reference to the importation of wine and corks from the continent. SAVINGS BANKS AND FRIENDLY SOCIETIES BILL. The house went into committee on this bill. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that the object of clause 4, at which the house resumed, was simply to give the commissioners a uniform authority in dealing with all stocks under Parliamentary guarantee. The effect of this would be to increase the powers of the commissoners, which at present were in some degree re • duced. This clause, with some amendments, was agreed to ; as well as clause 17, which relates to the production of ac counts. The other clauses were omitted. The CHAIRMAN then reported progress, and the house resumed, REFRESHMENT HOUSES AND WINE LI CENCES BILL. The house went into committee on this bill, and resumed at clause 6. Col. DUNNE moved as an amendment the following : Page 3, line 32, after " buildings" insert " which shall be over the value of £lo," . the object of which was to exclude from the act all tenements under that value. After some remarks from Mr. AYRTON, The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, that as far as he was aware, no instructions had been given to the police with respect to the mean ing of the term " refreshment houses," and he did not consider there was any difficulty in respect to its interpretation. In the English bill tobacco shops were regarded as refreshment houses. The bill would extend only to 12 or 14 towns in Ireland, because only that num ber had a population of 10,000 inhabitants. It had been considered indispensable to the bills that the right of visi tation should be retained, and he could not consent to the exclusion of houses under a yearly value of £lO. After some discussion, Mr. JIENNESSY denounced this bill as a mere mea sure of police regulation, and unjust towards a poor class of persons in Ireland, who would be called on to pay for a supervision that would invade their privacy. The amendment was negatived without a division. U A_ACATION S. DEDICATED BY, PERMISSION TO HER MAJESTY.
