By F. B. COURTENAY, M.R.C.S.E., And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan Infirmary for the Cure of Strictures of the Urethra. " This work is the production of a surgeon whose special attention has been directed, through a long professional life, to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his great discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which their management is founded. By his systematic management an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject to stricture."—Medical Circular, Dec.

Clause 45, as amended, was also agreed to ; as was also clause 46. On clause 47, which provided that the appeals sheruld be "by petition or motion," an amendment was proposed to leave out the words " or motion." The ATTORNEY-GENERAL opposed the amend raaet, but Would have the clause considered again if hon. gentle men thought it necessary. Mr. MURRAY had no objection to the clause being re considered, and hoped that the point relating to new evi dence would be attended to ; for, if they had to apply to the judge for leave to produce new evidence, their applications would be supported by affidavits, and thus attended with. expense and delay. After some verbal amendments the clause was agreed to. Clause 48, after some conversation, was agreed to. On clause 49, Sir F. KELLY moved an amendment, which would have the effect of allowing the chief judge in the court of appeal to summon to his assistance one or more of the judges of the courts of common law. The ATTORNEY • G E NE RAL thought the amendment would be a great improvement. The clause,.as amended, was then agreed to. Clauses up to 59 were agreed to. Clauses 60 to 66 were agreed to with some verbal amend ments. On clause 67 being proposed, PRICE 4D. STAMPED, 5D from a reproach which it now bore, that while it was the greatest trading countr) , in the world its law of bankruptcy was the worst and most inefficient. He moved that the re port of the committee on salaries, as amended, be received as amended. Sir H. WILLOUGHBY said the house never came to a sounder conclusion than it did in adopting the principle that in amending the law the compensations to be granted should not be granted out of the consolidated fund. (Hear, hear.) That was the principle he desired to have affirmed, and the house had affirmed it. He had no wish to interfere in the slightest degree with the amendment of the law. Mr. BOUVERIE said his hon. and learned friend had complained of the opposition he had received from hon. members who sat behind him, but he (Mr. Bouverie) thought some good had been done by the amendment ; and his hon. and learned friend must not expect that 510 clauses Could be agreed to without some of them being subjected to discussion and opposition. Mr. BARROW compla ned that the Consolidated Fund in this country had been loaded with sinecures of a very disgraceful character, and therefore it was that he felt he was right in supporting the amendment the other night. Mr. HENLEY :also approved of the amendment, and said he quite concurred in the opinion that, when a bill con tained so many as 540 clauses, a number of them must of necessity be subjected to discussion. Mr. W. WILLIAMS approved of the compensation clause being struck out, as it cut off a large amount of patronage. The report, as amended, was then agreed to. The house having gone into committee, clauses 25 and 26 were agreed to. Clause 27 was agreed to. On clause 28, The ATTORNEY-GENERAL proposed the postpone ment of this clause. Mr. ROEBUCK suggested that the words directing evi dence to be taken in writing be omitted, and viva voce evi dence substituted. The ATTORNEY•GENERAL did not object, and the amendment was agreed to. Clauses 68 to 73 inclusive were agreed to, as were also clauses 74, 75, and 76, Upon clause 77, which provides that in case of absence from sickness or other reasonable cause, the substitutes for commissioners and registrars should be paid by the Treasury, Mr. BOUVERIE objected to the introduction of this new principle. If the clause was agreed to as it at present stood, he could see that it would lead to great abuses. He should therefore move the omission of the payment to de puties in such cases out of the Suitors' Fund. (Hear.) Mr. COLLINS hoped the hon. member for Kilmarnock would persist in his motion. Mr. MALINS'had considerable doubt as to the propriety of giving bankruptcy jurisdiction to the county courts, but upon further inquiry he was quite satisfied in acceding to this proposal. He concurred in the propriety of giving one uniform salary to county court judges. Some judges did not sit so many days as others, but then the amount of travelling about the country, and other inconveniences to which the county judges were exposed, more than counter balanced the additional number of sittings which the busi ness entailed upon their metropolitan brethren. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said he would go to a division. After some further conversation the committee divided— For the amendment . ll7 Against lO7 Majority —lO The announcement of the decision in favour of the amendment was received with considerable cheering. On the motion that the clause as amended should stand part of the bill, Mr. ROEBUCK said he knew that many of the comity court judges had not four days in the month to call their own. They administered every kind of law, and that, too, without the assistance of a bar. Sir H. CAIRNS thought the plan proposed by the Attor ney-General was the best that could be done, and he would certainly support the clause. He believed that £1,500 a-year now paid to county court judges commanded the services of some of the best men, and was, therefore, in his opinion, quite enough. He thought that in future a dis trict commissioner in I ankruptcy ought to be put on the same footing as regarded salary as county court judges. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL concurred with his hon. and learned friend as to the propriety of placing in future district commissioners on the same footing as county court judges. He would consider the whole question, however, and postpone the clause. Clause 29 was agreed to. On clause 30 being proposed, Mr. CLAY said he should take the sense of the commit tee on this question. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL hoped the committee would consent to omit the clause altogether, if the amend ment, which was carried by so small a majority, was to be persisted in. Such an alteration of the clause would be an act of injustice towards the commissioners. He should take the sense of the committee on the omission of the clause. Sir H. CAIRNS said that as the clause new stood, no deputy or substitute could be appointed without the con sent or at the request of the commissioner, and if ;to fur ther addition were proposed to the clause, he should recom mend the Attorney-General not to press his objection to its retention. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL concurred in this view, and the clause as amended was agreed to. The house resumed, and the Chairman reported progress. On the motion that the committee sit at 12 o'clock on Thursday next, Mr. BEECROFT moved an amendment to the effect that the operations of the bill should be limited to those places where district courts now existed. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL opposed it. After a short conversation the clause was agreed to. On clause 31, Lord LOVAINE objected to the morning sitting on that day. Mr. BOUV ERIE opposed it. He objected to any power being given to the Lord Chancellor to appoint in certain cases the registrar of the court to hear all cases under forty shillings, when the business of the judge shall be thought too heavy. Mr. M. SMITH also objected to it, and hoped the hon. and learned gentleman would omit it altogether. He would rather see an increase in the number of judges than that the present clause should be adopted. Sir F. GOLDSMID thought the clause was opposed to the principle on which the county courts were founded. Mr. ROEBUCK quite concurred in the opposition to the clause, on the ground that the poorer classes objected to an inferior judge. The committee then divided, and there appeared— For the motion Against it Majority .. —69 The Registration of Births (Scotland) Bill, as amended, was agreed to. The Local Government Act (1858), as amended, was considered, and the amendments were agreed to. COMMON LAW PROCEDURE (IRELAND) ACT (1853.) This bill was read a second time. QUEEN'S PRISON BILL. This bill was read a second time. PAROCHIAL ASSESSMENTS BILL. Mr. COLLIER and Mr. MALINS expressed similar views, and hoped the Attorney-General would either con sent to amend the clause, or that it would bo negatived. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL admitted the weight of the arguments adduced by hon. and learned gentlemen, but on the other hand, it had been shown by past expe rience that nine-tenths of the time of the county court judges were occupied in hearing routine cases. On the whole, however, it being necessary to maintain confidence among the poorer classes in the administration of the law, ho was willing to omit the clause. (Hear, hear.) The clause was then put and negatived. On clause 33, which defines the jurisdiction of the new courts, Mr. MURRAY moved to omit the word "creditors in line 21. On the motion for the second reading of this bill, the order was discharged on the motion of Sir G. C. LEWIS. POSTAGE (ARMY AND NAVY) BILL. This bill passed through committee. ItEFRESIIMENT HOUSES AND WINE LICENSES (SC OT LA ND) BILL. The second reading of Ibis bill was postponed till Mon- day next. HUSBAND AND WIFE RELATION LAW AMEND MENT (SCOTLAND) BILL. The order was discharged. GAME CERTIFICATES BILL. This bill was postponed till Friday. COLE WORT BARRACKS (PORTSMOUTH) BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. POOR-LAW CONTINUANCE BILL. This bill was postponed till Friday. HERRING FISHERIES (SCOTLAND) BILL. This bill passed through committee. PRISONS (SCOTLAND) BILL. The order was discharged. TITLES TO LAND (SCOTLAND) ACT (1858) AMENDMENT BILL. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said the word had been introduced to meet cases in which no assignees had been appointed. Sir H. CAIRNS was of opinion that the introduction of the word was objectionable. Sir H. KELLY, on the other hand, thought there was great force in the views of the Attorney-General. After some further conversation, The ATTORNEY-GENERAL consented to the omis sion of the word, and the clause as amended was agreed to. Clause 34 was passed with some verbal amendments, after a short conversation. Upon clause 35, The order was withdrawn. THE MINES REGULATION AND INSPECTION BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. MAYNOOTH COLLEGE. The report was ordered to be received, and leave was given to bring in a bill in conformity therewith. LANDS CLAUSES CONSOLIDATION ACT (1845) Mr. MURRAY moved the insertion of the words, "and the amount of salaries to be from time to time paid to the clerks of the official assignees and the duties they are to perform." The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said he should offer no objection to the amendment. Heretofore the Court of Bankruptcy had been a great hotbed of patronage, and he trusted that abuse would be rectified by the present bill. AMENDMENT BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. The Metropolitan Building Act (1855) Amendment Bill was read a third time and passed ; as was also the Burial grounds (Ireland) Act (1856) Amendment Bill; and the Bleaching and Dyeing Works Bill. On the motion for leave to bring in a bill for the amend ment of the Peace Preservation (Ireland) Aot of 1856, by Mr. CAR D WE LL, Mr. POPE HENNESSY opposed the motion. The house divided, when there appeared— Ayes .... 18 Noes Majority in favour of the bill —l7 The house then adjourned at half-past two o'clock. Mr. WILLIAMS would like to know the number of clerks intended to be employed, and the salaries they were to be paid. Mr. BRISCOE thought the introduction of the words proposed would deprive the official assignees of all power over their subordinates. Mr. HENLEY and Mr. MITCRELL opposed the amend ment. If the amendment were agreed to the clerks would one day or other claim compensation because they had been appointed by the Lord Chancellor. Mr. ROEBUCK reminded the house that if the amend ment were agreed to the clerks would not be nominees of the official assignees but of the Bankruptcy Court. 1 ""Mr. MALINS thought the principle of the amendment very objectionable. After some further conversation the amendment was withdrawn, and the clause agreed to. Clauses 36, 37, 38, and 39 were passed without observa tion. On clause 40, Mr. ROEBUCK said that if the commissioners with a salary of £l,BOO a-year were to have vacation and a substi tute found for them during that period, he did not see why the county court judges, whose labours were more onerous and whose salary was only £1,500 a-3 ear, should not enjoy similar privileges. Mr. lIENLEY thought that if the commissioners did not work throughout the year they ought to pay the ex pense of those who represented them. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said he should be most happy to emancipate the county court judges, but he had no power to do so. Mr. HENLEY repeated that if the commissioners were to have vacation they ought to pay their deputies. Sir FITZROY KELLY approved of the clause. He thought it would be unjust to throw upon the Commis sioners of Bankruptcy the onus of paying their deputies. If any proposition were made of a similar kind with respect to the county court judges he would support it. Mr. ROE BUCK said he had no objection to have the salaries of Bankruptcy Commissioners preserved to them intact without any diminution for remunerating deputies. What he wished was to have the county court judges placed on the same footing. _ _ Mr. BARROW would not object to paying the deputy out of the Consolidated Fund provided his appointment were sanctioned by the Lord Chancellor. After some conversation the amendment was agreed to. On the motion that the clause as amended stand part of the bill, The committee divided, and there appeared— For the clause Against it Majority —2 The clause was therefore lost. On clause 41, Sir F. KELLY suggested that where the sum in litiga tion was small the matter should be referred to a superior court. Mr. ROEBUCK said the amount of money at issue had nothing to do with the matter. The principles of law in volved would be the same, irrespective of the SUM of money in dispute. Mr. W. WILLIAMS would suggest that in all cases in which the assets were under £3OO they should be brought into the county courts. Mr. VANCE said there was a difficulty, till a case reached a certain stage, in ascertaining what the assets would be. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said ho could not find any rule to define what cases should be transferred to the county courts better than the rule which was laid down in the bill. The transfer was not to be made without the con lent of the principal commissioner, Re hoped the committee THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, JULY 10, 1860. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT HOUSE OF LORDS—(YESTERDAY•) The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at five o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. Lord - De Freyne's Estate, Hungerford Market and Charing Cross Bridge, Waterford and Limerick Railway (No. 2), North British Railway (Stations, &c.), and Epsom and Leatherhead Railway Bills were read a third time and passed. heard fully and fairly discussed among naval officers. The conclusion at which he had arrived was that, to transfer the power of inflicting corporal punishment from the captain to a court-martial would be to diminish the authority of the captain and to endanger the discipline of the service. The nearest approach which could safely be made to such a sys tem was to provide—as was done in the present bill—that, except in the case of open mutiny, no man should be sub jected to corporal punishment by the commanding officer until the case had been inquired into and reported upon by one or more officers appointed by the commander. By that means the responsibility would be to a certain extent di vided between the captain and one or more of his subordi nates. He proposed that arrangement rather for the protec tion of the captain than of the men, as it would relieve him of that personal odium which he was at present apt to incur if he inflicted corporal punishment. Their lordships were, no doubt, aware that seamen were now grouped in two classes ; and the first-class men were not liable to corporal punishment at all till they had been reduced to the second class. Every precaution, therefore, had been taken to place corporal punishment on a safe footing. He was certainly not prepared to give up this mode of punishment, as cer tain persons who called themselves the "friends of the sailor" demanded. He believed that its opposition would be a positive misfortune to the men and would lead to great inconvenience at sea, as confinement was the only substi tute. The noble duke then moved the second reading of the bill. The Earl of HARDWICKE believed that the discipline of the navy was equally, if not more, dependent on the cha racter and conduct of the officers in command than upon the code of laws under which they acted. In forming an opinion on this question, the public had not made sufficient allow ance for the peculiarities of the naval service, and had been too prone to consider the Articles of War oR the same ground as the general law of the land. The effect of popu• lar opinion acting on the successive Boards of Adrai. reit) , had been to remder is extremely difficult for officers to carry out the naval code of laws and to maintain the disci pline of the service; and that influence coLld only be met by the establishment of a detailed system of discipline, and by the personal example of commanding officers in sharing the same privations and restrictions as their men. Ho owned that the language of the old Act of Parliament was too gene ral and comprehensive, and that it was desirable that the kind of punishment attached to each particular offence should be clearly defined. He had, therefore, no objection to the measure of the noble duke as a whole, although there were points in which it might be improved. He highly ap proved the manner in which the noble dukehad limited the distinction which prevailed between offences committed on shore and on board of ships. The exemptions from martial law which a seaman at present enjoyed when he quitted his ship certainly tended to unsettle him on his return on board, and not unfrequently petty officers who attempted to enforce very strict discipline were assaulted by the men on shore. The Act gave power to the Lords of the Admiralty to sus pend, annul, or modify any sentence passed on any person subject to the Act, except the sentence of death, which could only be remitted by her Majesty. He objected to any proposal to constitute the Lords of the Admiralty an appel- lant court. The naval officers who composed a court-martial wore generally quite as good jr dges as the Lords of the Ad miralty, if not better. An appeal from court-martial was always open to the Crown, and, although he wished to see an appellate jurisdiction established, it ought to be en trusted, he thought, to men learned in the law, and not to the Admiralty. Great objections were properly entertained to the 15th section of the 49th clause, which set up within the walls of the ship a court for the judgment of offences. The clause said, " Except in case of open mutiny no man shall be sentenced by the commanding officer to corporal punishment until. his offence has been inquired into by one or more officers appointed by such com manding officer, and the guilt or innocence of the prisoner reported to such commanding officer." He objected to this clause, thinking it desirable to retain in the hands of the captain the sole power, conduct, and management of the ship from first to last, together with the full responsi bility of such command. The captain might himself see an offence committed, and yet under this clause he would be unable to punish the offender until his guilt had been in quired into by these officers. Such a regulation would di minish and injure the authority of the captain, and have a prejudicial influence upon the discipline of the ship. At present an interval of 48 hours elapsed between the sentence of corporal punishment and its infliction, so thatample time existed for inquiry and reconsideration. He trusted that the house would not agree to this inquiry by junior officers, there were several clauses in the bill which required the most careful consideration, either before a select eommittee or inkommittee of the whole house. Lord COLCHESTER thought it necessary for the good of the service that the captain should have the supreme command, not only over the ship, but over all in it. The bill must be carefully considered in committee. Lord MELVILLE objected to that part of the bill by which an officer might be dismissed the service for what was called an " error of judgment." He thought this a very severe penalty. The Duke of SOMERSET would consider the various suggestions that had been made, with a view to their adop tion in committee if they were deemed advisable. If the bill was sent to a select committee upstairs, and noble lords attended to it for a day or two, he had no doubt that it might be considerably improved. '(Heer, hear.) The bill was then read a second time. The Criminal Lunatics Asylum Bill was reported, with amendments. TRAMWAYS (SCOTLAND) BILL. Lord BELHAVEN, in moving that the house go into comrcittee on this bill, explained that its object was to em power trustees in certain cases to lay down tramways on turnpike roads. Lord POLWARTH thought that before such powers were given to trustees the people of Scotland generally should be informed upon the subject. The bill, in reality, gave power to trustees to lay down railways on pub lic roads. Lord REDESDALE thought tho bill should bo post poned until next session, that it might be circulated through out Scotland. After a brief conversation, Lord BELHAVE N consented to withdraw the bill. LAW AND EQUITY BILL. The house went into committee on this bill. fhe LORD CHANCELLOR said the select committee to which this bill was referred had struck out several most material clauses, but he hoped the house might before long be induced to adopt them. The bill; as it stood, still con tained important amendments of the law which he believed would be found beneficial in prat' ice, and he therefore sub mitted it to the favourable consideration of their lordships. Two clauses had been omitted by mistake, and he believed there was no objection to their introduction. Lord BROUGHAM shared in the regret expressed by his noble and learned friend at the decision which had been arrived at by the select committee. He hoped that next year, he would not say a wiser, but a different opinion might prevail. Lord CHELMSFORD dissented from the view taken by the noble and learned lords who had just addressed the committee. The LORD CHANCELLOR said the supporters of the bill in its original shape had been only compelled to yield to what lawyers called the vis major, which could not be re sisted. The bill then passed through committee. CALEDONIAN AND CRINAN CANALS BILL. The:report of amendments was received and agreed to. Their lordships adjourned at five minutes to 7,o'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS. (Y ESTERDAY.) The SPEAKER took the chair at four o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Lords' amendments to the following bills were con sidered and agreed to, and the bills were ordered for third reading :—Conway and Llanrwst Railway, Mersey Docks and Harbour Board, and Watchet Harbour. The Kilrush and Kilkee Railway and Poulnasherry Embankment Bill was read a third time and passed. PETITIONS. Several petitions were presented against the religious profession clause in the Census Bill, against certain clauses in the Poor Law Act, and praying for their amendment, against the extension of the Wine Licenses Act to Scotland during the present year, by the Attorney -General in favour of the Bankruptcy and Insolvency (Salaries) Bill, and the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Bill, s ce , LEAVE OF ABSENCE. On the motion of Mr. BLACKBURN, leave of absence was given to Mr. H. Baillie for three weeks, in consequence of ill-health. _ NEW WRIT. On the motion of Mr. BRAND, a writ was ordered for the election of a burgess to serve .in Parliament for the borough of Brighton, in the room of Admiral Sir G. B. Pechell, deceased. THE BREACH OF PRIVILEGE. Lord FERMOY gave notice that to-morrow he would move a resolution to the effect that, " The rejection by the House of Lords of the bill for the repeal of the duty on paper is an innovation of the:rights and privileges of the house, and that it is incumbent on the House of Commons to adopt practical measures for the restoration of such rights and privileges. (Hear, hear, and laughter.) RATING GOVERNMENT ESTABLISHMENTS. Mr. Alderman SALOMONS asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if the arrangements for rating the Government establishments were so far completed as to admit of a supplementary estimate being brought forward during the present session ? Sir G. LEWIS said he believed the arrangements in question were completed, and he hoped the Government would be able to lay en the table the estimates Atteeseary to carry into effect these arrangements before the end of the session. TRANSFER OF REAL ESTATES, &c. Mr. HOPWOOD asked the Attorney-General whether he intended to proceed this session with the bill to amend the law relating to the transfer of real estates and the title thereto ? The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said that he had been struggling for four months to make some progress with this bill, but without success, and at this stage of the ses sion he would not bring in the bill. THE CENSUS BILL. Sir C. DOUGLAS asked the First Lord of the Treasury what course the Government would pursue with reference to the question of "religious profession," as proposed in the Census Bill. He hoped that a satisfactory answer would be given to his question by the GovQrnment —if it was not so—(cries of " Order")—he trusted, when they went into committee on thebill, that the objectionable clause would not be persevered in. Lord PALMERSTON said that when the bill came on next Wednesday her Majesty's Government would be pre pared to state the course they intended to adopt. _ SUPPLY. Mr. DISRAELI expressed a hope that the Government would not proceed with supply at a late hour that night, and inquired what course the right hon. gentleman the Chancellor of the Exchequer proposed to adopt in reference to the resolution on the paper duty ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that in the course of a few days he would amend the zesolution referred to, but it would not be brought forwaitl until the house had ample notice on the subject. THE CENSUS BILL. Sir J. TRELAWNY said that the answer of the noble lord (Lord Palmerston) to the question of the hon. baronet (Sir C. Douglas) was very unsatisfactory—(hear, hear) — and that the noble lord in that answer had not shown re spect for his party. (Hear, hear.) Ho begged to give notice that when the bill was brought on ho would move amendments even in committee of supply until this question was satisfactorily settled. (Hear.) After a few remarks from Mr. 13ARRow and Mr. MARTIN, Sir G. LEWIS said that the two bills which stood before the Census Bill for Wednesday were not likely to:occupy much time, and there would be ample time for the considers __ tion of the measure. If not, however, he would fix an eaily day for its discussion. Mr. B. OSBORNE said that the two bills alluded to wore the Charities Bill and the Education Bill, and they were not likely to be disposed of so soon as the honourable baronet (Sir G. C. Lewis) considered. This bill had caused considerable excitement among the Dissenters, who were the best supporters of the noble lord's (Palmerston) Government. He did not think that the reply of the noble lord or the statement of the right hon. baronet (Sir G. C. Lewis) satisfactory, and he asked the latter if he intended to retain the bill in its present obnoxi ous form? The house had a right to be informed whether the Government intended to proceed with the bill. Mr. HATFIELD and Lord ENFIELD expressed dissent to the clause relating to profession of religious belief. Sir G. LEWIS said it was impossible, according to the forms of the house, to fix an earlier day than that named for the consideration of the bill. It was not usual to en deavour to anticipate the course Government intended to take with respect to any particular bill; and he repeated that he did not believe that the two bills which preceded the Census Bill for Wednesday would occupy much time, and when the bill came on he would state the intentions of Government. BANKRUPTCY AND INSOLVENCY (SALARIES, So.) BILL. The adjourned debate on the report of the committee on this bill was resumed. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said that as some days had elapsed since the recent vote of the house in committee, on an important clause of this bill, it might be convenient for him to state the position in which it stood. It had been necessary to devise some means of repairing the mis chief done by that vote. The clause from which, by that vote, certain words were struck out, was one relating to certain compensations created in 1831, but it created no compensations, and the bill proposed to do more than had been recommended by the royal commission, as a step dictated by justice and equity. The object of that clause was to relieve the suitors in bankruptcy from an enormous burthen which never ought to have been laid upon them. The fees which he proposed to remit amounted to nearly £90,000 a year, and the step he would have taken was to throw those charges, which were penalties to be paid for the bad state of things altered in 1831, upon the consolidated fund, instead of leaving them to be borne by the suitors of the Court of Bankruptcy. In consequence, however, of that vote it had become nocessat yto alter the arrangement of the bill altogether. He had found, however, that he should be able to do this without much inconvenience, and if he had suggested the probability of his not going on with the bill, it was because ho had received three blows, or three adverse decisions upon it from his own side of the house. He felt greatly indebted to hon. and learned gentlemen on the opposite side, especially to Sir H. Cairns, Mr. M Sir F. Kelly, and Mr. Whiteside, for their generous and en- lightened support. The blows he had suffered were rather from the friends of the Government. (Cheers and a laugh.) This was a bill which not twenty gentlemen in the house had read, and certainly which they did not understand; therefore it was of no use to go on with it if every gentleman was to do what was right in his own eyes, whether he understood the matter or not ; there should be more disposition to put confidence in the Government upon this question. The right hon. member for Coventry and the hon. memberforNottingham, amongst others, had voted against him on that clause of the bill, although the whole body of the manufacturers and mer chants whom they represented were in favour of the bill. Ho would yet go on with the bill, being sincerely anxious to pass it. The arrangement he now proposed was this. He would leave the additional salaries of the county court judges charged on the consolidated fund, but provide an addition to the consolidated fund as would amply compen sate for that charge. The county court judges had been treated unequally, and he thought unfairly. They were divided into three classes, some having £1,500 a year, a few £1,350, and the rest £1,200. The effect of this bill would be to give them considerable additional labour, particularly those who had only £1,200 a year. He therefore proposed to make all the salaries £1,500 a year. But in return for that, he thought the county court fees would bear some augmentation. The proportion now paid on the amount of the claims was 10d. in the pound, and it was proposed to augment that to ls. At present nothing was paid for the service of the summons, and consequently the summonses were frequently taken out vexatiously ; it was therefore pro posed to place a very small fee on the service of the sum mons. But so numerous were the plaints and the summonses, that this trifling additional amount, which had been recom mended by 50 out of the 57 county court judges, would bring into consolidated fund £34,000 a year. The sum he proposed to devote to increasing the salaries of county court judges was £11,500 a year, so that the consolidated fund would bo a considerable gainer. He would leave the compensations and retiring annuities which were given by the acts of 1831 charged as they now were. He proposed that the bankruptoy accounts should be placed before parliament every year, and that a vote for the defi ciency should be asked for from parliament, up to the let of April in the next year. In that way he expected that the amount of fees now paid upon bankrupt estates, but which in reality were paid out of the pockets of the creditors —he expected to diminish these fees to the amount of £90,000 a year. There was a most serious per centage upon estates in bankruptcy, which on an average of seven or eight years amounted to about £38,000. He proposed to take that away altogether. In addition to that there were the large and oppressive per centages which had been re ceived by the official assignees, amounting, he observed, during the last year to nearly £51,000. He proposed to abolish them altogether. Of course in making these large deductions he put faith in the great increase in the income of the court, which he expected would be caused by bring ing all trustees for creditors and composition deeds within the reach of the law of bankruptcy. The house would re member that the great feature of the present bill was to make the law of bankruptcy part of the ordinary law of debtor and creditor. As the matter at present stood, they could not have the aid of the law of bankruptcy without not only going into court but administering the whole of the estate in the court. But it frequently happened that they wanted some of the powers of the law of bankruptcy for a particular purpose, and he proposed to give that bene fit to all trustees, all creditors, all parties to deeds of com position, upon their paying an inconsiderable stamp duty and being registered in the Court of Bankruptcy. At present a great part of the insolvency business was con ducted in a most irregular manner. All estates of im portance were carefully kept out of the Court of Bank ruptcy. All insolvencies of any magnitude were made the subject of private arrangement. There was no record of the state of insolvency, but under this improved system he trusted there would be a perfect register. These deeds of composition, according to the best returns, amounted to about £90,000 per annum ; he calculated that under the new system they would not exceed £6,000 per annum. He proposed that, on all these proceedings there should be a small stamp, in return for which the parties would get the benefit of the administration in bankruptcy ; they would have the opportunity of resorting to the court instead of being driven as they were now to the necessity of making private arrangements. He hoped and trusted that the alteration would be beneficial rather than the contrary. There were many matters of detail upon which there might well be a difference of opinion. He stated in bringing in the bill that there were many points on which he wished to have a deliberate discussion in the house. He trusted, therefore, that they might nowgo on with the bill. He had brought it is to the hope of reemiag this great merantils nation, DREADFUL RAILWAY ACCIDENT. On Sunday afternoon an accident of a very melan choly nature occurred between Trinity aid Gran ton, on the line of the Edinburgh, Perth, and Dundee Railway, by which four lives were lost and five or six persons seriously injured. The ordinary Sunday evening passenger train for the north leaves Edinburgh at 4.30 p.m. The accident occurred to the engine and tender while they were return ing to the locomotive station in Scotland-street, alter having safely conveyed the passenger train to Granton. There were on the engine and tender at the time of the accident six persons, namely, David Mathieson, the engine -driver ; ohn M'Kenzie Mathieson, the engine-driver's son, a boy of about 8 years of age ; John M'Kenzie, a brother-in-law of the engine -driver; Andrew Morgan, a pointsman in Scotland-street statio n ; J o h n Bolan, the stoker, and George Dall, a railway porter. The engine had just left Granton about 5 o'clock, and was proceed ing rapidly along the line,which at that point runs close to the sea on a high embankment, some unknown cause, the engine and tender went off the rails at a point opposite Wardie-cottages, a little to the westward of Wardle Hotel, and dashe d over distance of over the embankment into the sea, w h e n, from about 30 feet, carrying with them at skirting erailingroad, e o ai n f n ed a . bridge, which at that point crosse Morgan,t 11 e engine-driver, 1n t e th - h d eei r .

The accident also resulted in injury to several person s who happened at the time to be sitting on the stone bulwarks beneath the railway, on the north side, some of whom narrowly escaped with their lives. Within three-quarters of an hour after the accident Sheriff Gordon was on the spot, as were also Mr. List, Chief Constable of the county, and Mr. Brown, Deputy Procurator-Fiscal. The engine was lying bottom upwards on the beach, little to the eastward of the point at which it had gone over the embankment, while the tender l ay close behind it on its side. Mathieson, the has left a engine driver, was about 42 years of age, and having by widow and three children, this sad event been deprived "e, the brother-in-law of son, and brother. th a e t once Nvl of a husband, wi‘l,:siCe7airdener and was unmari the engine-driver, tied, residing with his :wther in Dunewodreet, ~~:,~- ITALIAN AFFAIRS. The Marquis of NORM ANBY was anxious to correct the erroneous impression which might have been created a few evenings since by the somewhat disparaging tone in which his noble and learned friend (Lord Brougham) had spoken of certain correspondents from whom he had received in formation with respect to the acts of the Provisional Go vernment at Florence. Upon the information derived from those gentlemen he placed as full reliance as that which he would repose in statements coming from any member of that house, even from the noble and learned lord himself. They stated that the Provisional Government, which had been much supported, and he might say nursed into exist ence, by the action of the noble lord the Secretary for Foreign Affairs, had violently gagged the press, and would not allow a syllable to be circulated in opposition to its views. But now the Provisional Government was at, an end, and as an immediate consequence a newspaper had been published by some of the most eminent men of liberal opinions in Florence, and had ben in existence for the last six weeks. In that newspaper The statements made by his correspondents as to the misdeeds, the tyranny, and the duplicity of the Provisional Government had all been sub stantiated ; and the agents of th© Government, instead of attempting to deny the facts, had endeavoured first to sup press the paper, and, failing in that, as a last-resource they bought off the printer and other persons connected with the paper. The result was that the publication had been sus pended for 10 days, but it was now again in existence; and such was its circulation, and such was the credit attached to its statements, that it was now published daily instead of three times a week. The result of the discredit attempted to be thrown on the facts stated by his correspondents was that they had become matter of notoriety at Florence from being published by some of the most respectable inhabitants. As he had always foreseen, the only result of an interference in Tuscan affairs was that the Mazzinian party was now stronger and bolder than ever. The latest information which he had received mentioned that three committees for barricades were now established in Florence itself. The noble and learned lord seemed likewise to throw great dis credit on what he had said with reference to the statements ii the French papers. But those details of the atrocities which had been committed were all confirmed the next day in the other house by the noble lord the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs. He had not directly charged the Provisional Government with these acts, but he said they were done by persons acting under their authority; for when the regular Government was overthrown, and was assumed by a person in the station of General Garibaldi, he had no right to permit the commission of outrages ; and it was not sufficient to say merely that he had in no way connived at them. The reports from our own admiral on that station de clared General Garibaldi personally to be a man of great moderation; but he was certainly not in a position to hold diplomatic intercourse with our Government if he was un able to prevent these atrocious crimes. Lord BROUGHAM—I am sure my noble friend and the house will acquit me in anything which I said from casting even the slightest imputation on my noble friend himself. Correspondence undoubtedly means letters received as well as sent, and when I described the very small value which I attached to the correspondence of my noble friend I meant letters which he had received, and not letters which he had sent. Of those I had no means of judging, except from my entire confidence in my noble friend, and whatever state ments were conveyed in those I am quite certain would be accurate. The value which I attached to the let' ers con taining the details referred to by the noble marquis was certainly of the very smallest, and nothing which has now fallen from my noble friend has inclined me to raise that estimate. My information from Florence is diametrically opposed to that of my noble friend—(cheers)—though I have no doubt whatever that he will attach as little value to my correspondence as I have attached to his, I believe that the Government of Florence is not subject to the im putations cast upon it by the correspondents of my noble friend, but that it is perfectly free from those charges. As to that celebrated individual—not more celebrated than ho deserves—(hear, hear)—General Garibaldi, I am exceed ingly glad indeed to hear that my noble friend does not at all impute to him those excesses which he says have been committed in the course of the revolutionary proceedings which have taken place in Sicily. I know I did not quite so understand my noble friend on a former occasion, and to-night I thought that, if he did not quite actually charge these excesses upon General Garibaldi, he more than in sinuates that he is answerable for them. I suppose my noble friend means that a man who is in supreme power is answerable for everything which is done during his dicta torship, but in no other sense can General Garibaldi be answerable for any of those offences to which reference has been made. (Hear, hear.) My noble friend seems to be under the impression that the Secretary of State admitted those excesses the other night in the other House of Par liament, and also that General Garibaldi had something to do with them, but my belief is that he peremptorily de nied it—(hear)—as I do now upon his authority and upon all other authorities who have any knowledge of the matter. (Hear, hear.) There is no cause known in history which has met with more universal acceptance than the cause of the Sicilians—(cheers)—with General Garibaldi at their head, against the tyrant of Sicily and his emissaries, whether in the shape of sbirri or soldiers—the soldiers, I verily be lieve, but for a season about to remain in allegiance to him. I am told there is a constitution about to be imposed, not upon Sicily, for that is out of the question, but upon Naples; in my firm belief, and in my entire hope and prayer, that constitution will utterly fail to save that detestable tyranny. (Cheers.) The Marquis of NORMANBY said he had never alleged that General Garibaldi was personally chargeable for these excesses in the sense belonging to those who inflicted them. What he had said, and what he now repeated, was that when a man, in violation of the law of nations, assumed possession of supreme power in a country like Naples, or any other country, he did render himself responsible for the outrages which it was acknowledged had been committed in Sicily. Lord BROUGHAM—My noble friend says that General Garibaldi has assumed his position in violation of the law of nations. All I can say in reply is that if the law of na tions is to be enforced to effect perpetual subjugation and misery on any nation, the sooner we hear as little as possible of the law of nations the better. (Hear, hear.) Lord WODEHOUSE said the statement of the Foreign Secretary in the other house went much further than a denial of any proof that General Garibaldi had connived at these excesses. On the contrary, the last accounts showed that he had taken very severe measures to prevent them. (Hear, hear.) When a man was placed in the position of General Garibaldi it was not surprising that he should not be able to prevent the commission of everything of which he disapproved. (Hear, hear.) He certainly deserved the highest credit for the ge.aerosity and moderation which he had displayed. It must not be forgotten, too, that if some outrages had been committed in the excitement of a revolution outrages had been previously committed by the Royal troops which were perfectly well known to all the world, and which were unsurpassed by anything of which the oppressed people of Sicily had been guilty. (Hear.) The conversation then dropped. NAVAL DISCIPLINE BILL. The Duke of SOMERSET, in moving the second read ing of this bill, said that it was nearly a century since the act was brought in which goveraed the discipline of the navy, and the changes of the law and the progress of public opinion with regard to the navy rendered it very desirable that amendments should be introduced and the law revised. Neither offences nor punishments were clearly defined. A paper which was in their lordships' hands showed the spirit in which it was intended by this bill to deal with the sub ject. It was proposed to deal with it on principles of jus tice and humanity, without relaxing in any degree the dis cipline of the navy. The men would know what punish ments they incurred, and that the object was to keep good order among themselves, without which they could have no comfort or safety on board ship. With an ill-disciplined crew, the insubordinate and disorderly shirked work, and, as the work must be done, it fell upon the orderly and subordinate. It was, therefore, in the interest of the orderly men that the disorderly should be punished. It was pro posed to do away with the almost universal punishment of death which stood in the old code. It was never inflicted in a great many cases, and it was desirable the men should know what in those cases their punishment really would be. He had received a great many suggestions from officers who were competent to form a sound opinion upon several of the details, some of which he intended to adopt. After the second reading he should propose to go into committee pro forma, in order to introduce those amendments, and the bill might be debated and reconsidered on going again into committee on a future day. There were many reasons why it was desirable to pass the bill this year. They had heard with regret of disturbances in vessels both at home and abroad, and he was told that one great fault of the present law was that the petty officers, who should come in between the officers and seamen, though protected on board ship, were not protected sufficiently on shore. They were often injured and insulted on shore by the men whose conduct they had found fault with on board ship. It was therefore most de sirable that a clause should be inserted to protect the petty officers on shore, as well as on board ship. (Hear, hear.) The continuance of corporal punishment in the navy was a (motion which he had ccuidered very artfully, and had bo To )dg ores, i
