The committee appointed by the House of Com mons to inquire into the best system of completing contracts for the steam-packet and telegraphic service met on Thursday —Mr. Dunlop in the chair. The Right Hon. W. E. Gladstone, M.P., Chan cellor of the Exchequer, was examined at some l e ngth. He stated that he had had several inter views with private gentlemen in reference to the Galway contract, in which representation had been made to him of the injury which Canada would sustain if the contract was continued, but as the subject was undergoing investigation at the hands of a committee, he declined to interfere in the slightest degree. Last autumn a gentleman called upon him in Flintshire, and told him that the Galway contract was to be transferred to the Montreal Steam-packet Company for a bonus of £24,000. He was asked if he would encourage the parties to proceed with their negotiation, and his answer was a virtual refusal on the part of the Treasury to entertain the matter. He was aware that every description of rumour was afloat as to the engagements which had been entered into, and a great variety of considerations appeared to add strength and force to the general rule of the Trea sury, that the executive should abstain from inter ference upon any question which had been formally referred to a committee. He therefore held out no encouragement to the gentlemen who waited upon him to proceed further in the matter, and he gave no expectation that he would be induced to see the question in such a light as to enable him to signify , to the Admiralty and the Treasury that no objec tion would be made to the transfer. He had no recollection of a proposition having been made to re-open the general conditions of the contract, pro vided the Government consented to the transfer. Am I to understand that 0n make any other ground th an th at t h e com mittee al‘itcooruthpcoytoc; mind to object to the Mr. Gladstone — Quite so. I did not feel called upon nor entitled t o for m a definite judgment upon the proposal then , because a preliminary inquiry w as already taking place. you iSti proposal e ra ei did n o t Stafford was sitting . Sir 11. Willoughby—Did you understand that thi s c ommittee had expressed any intention of de- Mr. Gladstone — No ; I did not understand that th e committee had at all entered into the relations b e t we en the two companies. Sir 11. Willou ghby—With regard to th e gene ral ques tion, assum ing that it w as th oug ht proper t o t i r cio"minpgani what should be the agreemen t b e t ween h e es ? place the making or altering of a packet contract in a department, such as the Post-office, what is your opinion as to the propriety, see i ng th a t the contract involved the expenditure of large sums of money, of placing the financial control of the con tract in the hands of the Treasury ? Mr. Gladstone—Though I have not much consi dered the form in which the contracts are entered into, I think that substantially the Treasury is mainly answerable for the merits of the contracts made by the Post-office for remote postal service over sea. I apprehend, however, that the Post office would have a special responsibility for those parts of the arrangements which belong to its own de partmental duties, and that the Board of Trade, or the Board of. Admiralty, should have a special re sponsibility with regard to those parts of the con tract which were strictly maritime. The general responsibility would, however, be with the Trea sury. __ Sir H. Willoughby—lt is in evidence that some of the contracts have been mainly, if not entirely, decided by the Financial S ecre t ar y o f th e T re a sur y. What is your opinion with regard to such an arrangement ? Mr. Gladstone—l think that that is rather a question as to the internal organisation of the Trea sury than a question in reference to the packet ser vice. It is, however, a question upon which I can well conceive that much may be said. The practical business arrangements of the Treasury would never be inferred by the public from reading in an almanac or red book the names of the persons charged with the different offices. The relation of the Financial Secretary of the Treasury to the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and again to the First Lord, as well as the relations of an Under-Secretary of State to the Chief Secretary are matters involving a great deal of public interest, and ought not to be settled without a great deal of consideratien. Sir F. Baring—Can you state to the committee whether in the case of these contracts, it is not the practice for the Financial Secretary, though he may have gone through the details, to take the opinion of the Chancellor of the Exchequer before he makes any final arrangement ? Mr. Gladstone--I should say decidedly that in the case of any one of these contracts the Secretary of the Treasury would grievously fail in his duty if he did not do so. I have, however, had very little experience in the matter, because, when I was for merly Chancellor of the Exchequer, very few con tracts came under my notice, and, since my last ap pointment, the question has been kept at arm's length, in consequence of the sitting of this com mittee. At the same time, if you ask my opinion, Ido not hesitate to give it. Of course, it must be a matter of discretion for the Financial Secretary to determine which of the subjects brought under his notice should be referred to the Chancellor of the Exchequer ; but it is quite clear to me that it is his duty to refer to the Chancellor of the Exchequer contracts of this nature. At the conclusion of Mr. Gladstone's examina ion, the committee adjourned. INDIA AND CHINA. INDIA. By the arrival of the Calcutta mails we (Times) have received our private correspondence and files of papers from Calcutta to the 10th of April, and from Hong Kong to the 30th of March. The following is the letter of our Calcutta corre spondent : " CALCUTTA, APRIL 10. " But eight days have elapsed since the despatch to you, via Bombay, of a letter in which the ques tion of the relations of the indigo planter with the ryot were fully discussed. During the brief period that has since elapsed universal quiet has prevailed. The ryots, even in the Kishnaghur district, have desisted from active hostility, and have returned to their ordinary vocations. The threatened a g rarian outbreak, the very whispe r o f w hi c h seeme d likely to postpone our monetary and commercial reforms has subsided. Even the agitation, but three weeks ago so universal, has entirely died away. No doubt, this state of affairs is very much owing to the legislation forced through the Council. The bill prepared by the Lieutenant-Governor and im proved by Mr. Wilson has had considerable effect in calming down men's minds. Nevertheless until we have passed through the ordeal which men are so anxiously awaitin g , it will be impossible for any one to write with perfect confidence as to the con tinuance of order. I use this phrase as totally distinct from any danger of outbreak; of that there is none; the measures of the Government have been taken, their police have been judiciously stationed around and among the disturbed districts, and the slightest movement will be promptly and effectually put down. The danger to be apprehended is of a dif ferent character, and partakes more of the nature of a passive resistance, which the planters will find it difficult to overcome. If, for instance, in the course of the present week those heavy showers so longed for at this season, and so necessary for the cultivation of the indigo plant, were to fall, we should then have an opportunity of testing the real efficacy of the recent enactment. This is the ordeal to which I refer. If the bill recently become law stand this trial—if it induce the ryot to sow after the showers, we may be sure that the Bengal indigo districts will never again prove a source of anxiety. Up to the point where we now stand the bill has been successful ; it has put down agitation. The question still remains whether:it is able to go a step further, and compel those ryots who come under its provisions to perform the contracts into which they have entered with the planters. The first heavy showers, now daily expected, will settle this question. Some anxiety meanwhile is felt as to the composition of the committee which is to con duct the investigation so loudly demanded by both parties. On this point a pretty general confidence is felt in the impartiality of Government, and it is believed that it will be formed of men who have ex pressed no decided opinions on one side or the other. " Mr. Wilson's Income-tax Bill was to have been read a second time last Saturday ; the debate was looked forward to with some interest, as there were rumours of amendments on various minor points, At the last moment, however, the sitting was post poned, and an extraordinary meeting of the Execu tive Council summoned instead. It is probable that whatever differences of opinion might have existed on various points of detail were settled on this oc casion, and it is as well. Meeting the Legislative Assembly united, the Supreme Council can always practically dictate its own terms; it is only in the event of union among the members of the Executive that opposition could prove successful. There is not the smallest chance of this on the present occa sion. Mr. Wilson's measures are as safe as though they were already law. European public opinion has been strongly pronounced in their favour, and they have from their very breadth and fairness suc ceeded in upsetting the prejudices of many of the natives. The opposition, for instance, of the zemin dars is not nearly so pronounced as might have been expected. These men, those in Bengal especially, regarded the settlement of Lord Cornwallis as their constitution,' or their charter; they considered that the imposition of taxation was a breach of that charter, and was essentially illegal. In the face, however, of Mr. Wilson's logic, and of his stern array of facts and figures, they have not been able to main tain this position. They have felt the necessity of marching- onwards, and, though still unwilling to , give up the point entirely, they are ready to give a ' sensible and practical answer to those who may be ap pointed collectors by Government. Mr. Wilson has ample opportunities of making himself acquainted with the views of this important class. Not a Bengalee newspaper is published of which he does not receive an accurate translation, and as the Bengalees, with a boldness which shows their complete confidence in the justice of our Government, express their views in these papers in very strong language, never hesi tating to condemn by name those members of the Administration whom they conceive worthy of blame, Mr. Wilson is thus enabled to obtain, as he legislates, the surest knowledge of the effect which his measures will produce on the minds of this por tion of the community. In connection with these Zemindars I may mention that the proceedings of the ryots about 15 days back had filled them with alarm. They were quick-witted enough to know that repudiation of advances, if successfully accom plished, would inevitably lead to repudiation of rent. In the petition which they made to the Lieut.- Governor on this question they dropped their usual formula of hostility to the indigo planter, and asked for the preservation of order—a phrase which in this case could only mean the enforced performance of engagements. "A curious forgery case, of surpassing interest to our native fellow subjects, has recently been heard in our Supreme Court. The principal defendant, Sibkissen Baneijee, was a very wealthy native, possessing property to the amount of £4,000 per annum. He was accused of forging the signature of his deceased brother to a will, in which he was a legatee to the extent of nearly £15,000. his princi pal witness was a 1)r.

She said—l remember tak ing my daughter Eugenia to Mr. Hatch's on the 11th of August. I had dinner or rather I should say luncheon, with them. I did not ask Mr. Hatch or any one else in the house to allow my daughter to go to his bed in the morning, but I did say that she had been used to be petted; and I wished them to be kind to her. Mr. Hatch then said she should be treated as well as his own child, and she was in the habit of coming into his bed in the morning, and Eugenia , should do the same. I never made the suggestion that she should go to his bed. A fortnight after_ this'. took My other daughter, Stephanie, to Mr. Hatch's:, and during the whole day I had no opportunity of speaking to my daughter Eugenia alone ; either Mr. or Mrs. Hatch was with us the whole time. When it was getting near the time for our departure I took the child to the closet, which was the only place I could get to be with her alone. She burst out crying immedi ately and asked me to take her home, and she ap peared very unhappy. I returned the next day to Mr. Hatch's, but I cannot tell what made me do so. The witness, who appeared to be of a very excitable temperament, then said—l am nervous you know. I fancied something was wrong, and I went back. I did not rush into the schoolroom, but went in quickly, and I said, " Holloa ! Lucy running about the passage and my children in the schoolroom—l thought there were to be no favourites here." I saw Mr. and Mrs. Hatch shortly afterwards, and told them I was come to take my children away. While the things were being packed up I went away with my daughter to the closet, and she told me Mr. Hatch was " such a disgusting man." I asked what she meant, and she made a communication to me. She did not state to the full extent what had occurred, and I said " Nonsense," and nothing more occurred. I spoke to my husband, and he enter tained the same opinion that I did. There was no time for anything more to be said, as we had to leave by the eight o'clock train. I am sure that Stephenie did not say anything to me in the house. I gave the child Lucy a Noah's ark and ss. before we left. We hardly got out of sight of the house, in the cab, when Eugenia told us what Mr. Hatch had done to her. We did not arrive at our residence in *Wiltshire until the middle of the night, and en the following morning we sent for our medi cal man, and Mr. Pratt, our solicitor, came on the same day, and after this we communicated with the Bishop. Our object in this was to spare our chil dren the pain of a public exposure. 'We subse quently received notice to attend at Wandsworth before the magistrates, but on the day before we were informed Mr. Hatch had resigned, and that our attendance was not necessary, and we then ob tained a warrant for Mr. Hatch's apprehension, but it could not be executed, because he went away. I afterwards received from Mr. Hatch the letter that has been referred to. • CrOss-examined—Both on the 25th and the 26th I had no opportunity of being alone with Eugenia, except in the water-closet. [This witness spoke this in a loud voice, and she at the same time said, " I like to answer firm,"] (A laugh.) I swear I was not in a bedroom with Eugenia and my hus band alone on either of those days. The " other party" were always present. Mr. James--Who do you mean by the " other party." Witness—Mr. and Mrs. Hatch. Stephanie never told me in the bedroom that Mr. Hatch had behaved - indecently to her. If any one has said this, it is a deliberate falsehood. lam sure she did not tell me so herself. I swear that I did not walk round the kitchen garden with my husband anal my two daughters on either of those two days, and that I told my husband what Stephanie had told me. She had not told me at that time. I may have stated at the former trial that Stephanie told me that Mr. Hatch was dressed, and that he unbuttoned his trousers, but if I did say so it is a mistake of mine. She never did say so. I remember the child told me that she noticed Mr. Hatch had a very shabby night-shirt on, or that it was pieced or mended. I delft know whether I have mentioned this before, but I was surprised that the child should make such an observation. I don't know whether my husband stopped the cab and brought me some beer. If he did it was not a criminal thing. I have not had any brandy and water to-day. I did have some yesterday, if I required it. To-day I have had sherry wine. I cannot remember whether I had any brandy and water yesterday, but I had the day before I should like to have some brandy and water or sherry now. (A laugh.) I did not drink beer with the policemen after the conviction of Mr. Hatch. A bottle of stout was sent for, and I drank part of it, and the remainder was left for the police men. Mr. James—How many schools has your daughter been at ? Witness—As many as I thought proper to send her to—eight or ten, perhaps. She was only a fortnight at one. It was quite long enough. It is very probable that I threatened to publish a state ment that the proprietress of that school had not kept her agreement with me. Mr. James—Did she go to school at Southamp ton ? CHINA. By this arrival we have advices from Hong Kong to March 30; Shanghae, March 23. The follow ing is 'from the summary of the Overland China Mail.— A number of vessels have arrived, since the de spatch of last mail, with troops belonging to the British expeditionary force, but no troops from France have yet arrived. Sit Hope Grant still re mains here, but leaves for Shanghae shortly; and it is understood that Chusan will soon be occupied by the allied force, if the Chinese refuse the ulti matum. Nothing has transpired as ta_what f oiswer CIL& Chinese Government has made toilie - tiaoderate de mands which Lord John Russell, in his despatch of November 10, directed Mr. Bruce to make upon it ; but there is a general conviction that it will not condescend to make a full apology, and that it is prepared to enter on war. The ultimatum was only given, we are informed, to the Chinese au thorities on the Bth of this month, so at least a week must elapse before an answer can be ex pected. Those who know most about what is going on in the neighbourhood of Pekin, know best that they know little or nothing about the matter, and give no credit to the innumerable reports which are flying about. A popular ferment has again been got up in Shanghae among the Chinese about the coolie trade, although there is not the slightest ground for it at present ; and it appears to have been got up for political purposes. The accounts of the progress of the rebels are said to be exaggerated, and we can well believe it, as men's minds are at present in a most unsettled and timorous state. The report that the city of Hu-chau had fallen into the hands of the rebels had been contradicted. Another baseless report is that Nanking had been retaken by the imperi alists. From Japan the only intelligence is that the murder of the two Dutch captains, which we no ticed in our last summary, was perpetrated in private revenge for the execution of three Japanese, on the ground of complaints by some Dutchmen resident at Yokohama. The foreign consuls called on the Japanese authorities and demanded that every step should immediately be taken that would lead to the apprehension of the murderers, and this was eagerly promised by the authorities themselves. A guard of 25 men had been landed at Kanagawa, from a Russian corvette, for the protection of foreigners. The British minister at Jeddo is said himself to go about armed. CALCUTTA COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. • (From the Calcutta Englishman.) SATURDAY, APRIL 7. Produce Market.—The prices for which all produce are held deters purchasers. With the scarcity of tonnage, and the higher rates ruling, produce cannot be laid down in London at anything approaching to quoted value. Import Market.—During the last fortnight a general dulness has hung over our market, and piece goods, owing to the unfavourable accounts from all the up -country markets, remained in limited demand at about former prices. Government Securities.—An active demand for European and local account has caused a considerable advance in the value of government securities. Money Market.—Money is gradually becomine , easier, but cannot be said to be abundant either in .the bazaar or with the banks. The market still suffers from the locking up of money by speculators in government securities, to which the Bank of Bengal lent such powerful aid at the sacrifice of legitimate commercial interests. The Bank of Bengal lowered its rate of interest 1 per cent. on Thursday. Exchange.—There has been only a moderate amount of business transacted for this mail in bills on London. Freights continuo improving ; owing to short supply of tonnage, rate to London is to-day £l, with upward ten dency ; to Liverpool, £3 15s. ; to Australia, £3 10s. ; to France, 150 f.; to America, 15 dols. TEE CASE OF THE REV. 31R. (Continued from the Sun of yesterday) The following witnesses were then examined for he defence : Stephanie Augusta Plummer, an interesting child, eight years of age, sister of the defendant, said—l remember my sister going to Mr. Hatch's, and I remember going there too a few days after wards. We arrived at Wandsworth in the after noon, and I and papa and mamma went into the drawing-room and saw Mrs. Hatch there. Mr. Hatch was not at home, Papa and mamma went away in the evenin g,and soon afterwards I and Lucy Hatch were put to bed together. My sister slept in an adjoining room, and I could hear her come to bed. I could not sleep, and began to ery be case my mamma had gone away. After some time Mr. Hatch came into my room. He was alone. He asked me how it was I was not asleep, and I made no answer. He then came up to my bed. [The witness here detailed what afterwards occurred, the particulars being, of course, unfit for publication.] Mr. Hatch had nothing but his night shirt on, and I think he came from his own room. After this he wished me good night and left the room. I had heard him go into my sister's room a few minutes before he came into mine. On the following morning my sister told me that Mr. Hatch had done something to her, and I said he had done the same to me. Mr. I - latch called me into his bedroom on the same morning, and Mr. Hatch fetched my sister from her room, and she got into his bed. Mrs. Hatch was in the bed at the same time. We all five were in the bed together—myself, Mr. and Mrs. Hatch, my sister, and Lucy Hatch. Mrs. Hatch got out of bed first, and she then dressed Lucy, ana I and my sister were dressed by the servant. My papa and mamma came to Mr. Hatch's on the same day, and I saw my sister go with my mamma to the water-closet. After this my papa, mamma, and my sister and I went into the garden, and Mrs. Hatch accompanied us. At this time I had told my mamma what Mr. Hatch had done. She asked me if I liked the place, and I told her I did not, and shortly after this we went away in a cab to the railway station, and as we were going home I heard my sister say how Mr. Hatch had treated her, and I also told what had happened to me. On the following morning Mr. Gay, our surgeon, was sent for, and I and my sister told what had taken place in his presence. I have remained at home with my papa and mamma ever since. Cross-examined by Mr. James—l had never been at school before I went to Mr. Hatch's, I was on a visit to my sister once at a school in Southampton, and my mother came dowß and fetched us both away. I cannot read or write. My mother has never taught me either to read or write. Some times she used to take me to church. We went from our house in Wiltshire to Mr. Hatch's. My mother used to take me to ehurch every Sunday, but I have never been taught to read my Bible or Prayer-book. My sister first told me something Mr. Hatch had done. I knew what she meant. I don't know where I learned to know what she meant, but I did know. She did not say anything more at that time, and I told her he had done the same thing to me. I did not much like going to school, and I was anxious to get away. I did not tell my governess anything a bout what happened. I don't think I said anything about it rden. to my I had told her be mamma while we were walkin g in the ga fore, and as we were walking about I heard my mamma tell my papa what Mr. Hatch had done, We all had tea together after this, and my mamma gave Lucy ss. and a toy. Eugenia did not say any thing to me about Mr. Hatch until after school was over, at 12 o'clock. On this same day, I think, I was in my bedroom alone with my mamma, and I told her then what Mr. Hatch had done. My papa was present at the time, and heard what I said. I asked my mamma to go upstairs, as I had something to tell her. My sister heard what I said, but she did not say anything. Mr. Hatch had a candle in his hand when he came into my bed room, 'and he placed it on the washstand. My sister told all that had happened as we were going along in the cab, and also in the railway carriage, and before Mr. Gay, and Mr. Pratt, the solicitor. I understood all that she meant, and that it was something very bad and wicked. My mother has Witness—l dare say you know all about it. (A laugh.) • Mr. James—Why did you take her away from Southampton ? Witness—Because she was not treated properly. I am a very particular woman, although I do take a little brandy and water and sherry wine, and I should be very glad to give you some if you re quired it. (A laugh.) Cross-examination continued—My daughter was at three different schools at Bath. There was a reason for her removal from- each, and, besides, a change does her good. (Laughter.) She told me from the first that she did not like " the Hatches," and she was very anxious to get away. I swear I did not hear outside that the gardener had been examined this morning. Mr. Plummer read a portion of the report in the newspapers last night. I cannot recollect whether Eugenia told her sister what kad taken place during the day in court. I did not object to my child going to Mr. Hatch's bedroom, because I was anxious that there should not be any jealousy between the two children. My youngest child cannot read. Ido not wish to hurry her education; on account of her health being deli cate. Ido not go regularly to church or any other place of worship, but Mr. Plummer takes the child ren to church occasionally. I did not take my children to church during the year 1859, but I am as good as those who do go. I have had a bad foot, and my spirits have been failing since I lust one of my children. 1 Mr. James—l ask you, without reference to any it was c o n bodily ailment, was it your habit a s a mother to take your children to chapel or ch urc h ? WN es n t o it t ;ued-1 did not cause the Crops-examination t ns great bell of our house t be rung upon my return home to celebrat e th e conviction of Mr. Hata. Re-examined_l should say that both the children had told their stories before we arrived at Padding ton, but I am certain they had done so before we arrived at home. from any school on account of misconduct. She was beloved by all. My children have been taught to say their prayers—the Lord's Prayer (not the Be lief), the prayer for their parents, and little hymns. My husband used to take the children to church, but he did not go every Sunday, because sometimes he was prevented by the weather or some other cause. At the conclusion of the examination of this wit ness the trial was again adjourned.
