THE DENHAM TRAGEDY. the jacket sown up by a woman drinking at the bar, and, after going again to the public-house we were in first we returned to our lodgings. I was there when the prisoner was taken, about half-past five. I did not take sufficient notice of the key to swear to it, but it was about the size of the one produced. Superintendent Jervis—l produce the key identified by the last witness. On Sunday last, the 29th of May, I took the lock produced from the front door of Marshall's house, which opened into the room where the bodies of Mrs. Mar shall and her sister-in-law were found. I tried the key. - It fitted the lock. There is white paint on the key similar to that on the lock. The lock appeared to have been painted with the key in it. Daniel Love, warder of Reading gaol, deposed that the prisoner was discharged from that prison on the Bth of January last. He gave him the cord jacket produced (which was found in Marshall's bed-room) and a pair of boots similar to those produced. Prisoner—Those are not the boots. _ AYLESBURY, TUESDAY. The adjourned magisterial inquiry, into the circum stances connected with the deaths of Emmanuel Marshall, 35 , Charlotte, his wife, aged 32, Mary Ann Marshall, his sister, 30, Mary Marshall, his mother, aged 77, and three children, Mary, Theresa, and Gertrude, aged respectively 8,6 , and 4, was held this morning, within the walls of the jail of the county town of Aylesbury. Up to Saturday it had been supposed that the prisoner would be brought from the jail to Slough. A report became current on Saturday that in consequence of the great pressure upon the police on W e d nes d a y l as t in the endeavour of the mob t o ge t a t an d maltreat the accused, would not be deemed prudent to give them all oPportunity of taking summary vengeance upon him, but the owners of the brickfields, whose men had turned out on the last occasion, had tendered themselves to be sworn in as special constables at once, and Captain Drake, s chief co n stable, assisted by Superintendents D unham, Jervis, and Denson, had made every arrangement to meet all contingencies. At the eleventh hour, however, a far greater difficulty arose, the g o vernor of Reading gaol refusing to part with his Prisoner. On Friday it would appear that the coroner sent his warrant down for the safe custody of Jenkins, ,P 4l ,d on Sunday the deputy constable reached Slough and 'Mormed the magistrate that the Clerk of the Peace for the county of Bucks had advised the governor of the gaol not to give up the prisoner, and that acting on that advice the Governor would not allow him to be b rought to Slough, considering that if the prisoner were rescued or killed he would be held responsible: A council was immediately held, and we understand Mr. Coleman, re of the magistrates, went to London and consulted Mr. B ruce upon the matter, but that gentleman de clined to interfere. Arrangements were then promptly Made for conveying the witnesses to Aylesbury, and at el even o'clock this morning the accused was brought up before the magistrates of that county. Matters had been so quietly conducted that not a person in Aylesbury seemed to know what was going on, and in perfect quietude the chain of evidence was drawn so tightly r ound the accused as to leave him, apparently, no chance of rebutting it. There were no less than sixteen witnesses to be called to-day, several of whom were new, and had most important evidence to offer. The first of them was nrY Salter, a carman. who met prisoner at Hanwell. N w s witness deposed as follows :—On Saturday, May 21, as coming from Acton to Uxbridge along the turnpike road, when 1 saw the prisoner at Hanwell Asylum close to the,crates. I was driving my cart and and he overtook e• He asked me to give him a ride on to Uxbridge, and , 4 did so. He sat on a bundle of sacks, and I put him 'cwn at the Green Man at Uxbridge between five and six in the evening. He rode six miles. As we came along he said he had got no money, but that he had a brother near Uxbridge, who he knew had some, and that he should have some of it. I asked him his brother's n ame, and where he lived, and he said that was a question he could not answer. He told me all this without asking, and he further said he should not go and see him till after dark. He did not say anything more particular, but that he had been moving about the country and spent a lot of money in his time. Another man who got up after the prisoner had ridden two miles, and Jenkins spoke to him. At this point witness was asked to identify the man who rode with him, and he pointed to a gentleman with sandy Whiskers, sitting at the reporters' table, wholly unlike the Prisoner. After a long and searching glance round the r oom . , witness was stretching out his finger, when Prisoner exclaimed " Was it me " ? Witness : Yes, it was you. Beant it you ? The Bench : Is that the man or not ? Salter : Was he fair or dark ? Witness : Yes that's the man. I was dazed by the light at first, and did not see him. He was dark. Charles Trevener, of the Bucks police, stationed at Jaenham, repeated the evidence given before the coroner, 8 4 to meeting the than at three o'clock on Sunday morn ing coming away from Denham about half a mile from ip enhana. Witness afterwards described the finding of the bodies had of the murderous implements with which the tragedy ad been carried out, the appearance of which covered with blood and brains, as found, created a thrill of horror in the court. Elizabeth Simpson then repeated her account of having ,met the prisoner when she was looking for a key on Sunday morning, the 22nd instant. John Smith, coal dealer, Denham turnpike-gate : On S hay morning, the 22nd a little before eight, I saw the '‘ ia n, who was speaking to a woman on tramp. Ile Passed her came up to me, and pulled a purse out of his Pocket.He said he had been to see his brother, and he mad set him up in business. He said he had given him £2O and his sister gave him a watch, and that he was to take care of it, and not sell it. He said he should raffle it, and aPend the money as soon as he could. He shewed me a Watch and chain like this. It had a locket on it then, a nd stood at ten minutes to eight. He said he could not tell the time by it now he had got it, and he asked me What ti me it wa s. He asked me to buy the watch and c hain for £2, and I told him I had got watches enough. 'le wanted me to go down to Uxbridge to drink with him, and I would not. He said he'd got plenty of money, and pulled a purse out which seemed full. He said it had £l9 19s. 9d. in it, and he also took silver out of his p oc k e t , b u t I did no t see the gold. Clerk (to witness) : Did you notice his clothes? Witness : Yes. The boots were cracked across the ••.innt. is These are them. I cannot swear to the clothes. hat the man (pointing to the prisoner).

Witness told him not to do such a thing as that. Mary Ann Sparks, sister to Mrs. Marshall, who ap peared in deep mourning, identified the coat, trousers, braces, necktie, shirt, collar, and knife found in posses sion of the prisoner, as having belonged to her brother-in law, Emanuel Marshall. She knew that he had a pistol like the one produced, but not so bright. She could not swear to the watch and chain, believing the chain was more solid. Maiy Ann Marshall had a silver watch and gold chain. • Thurra Spooner, sister to Marshall, said the watch and chain produced were very much like her sister's. She found £2O and a wedding-ring in her sister's box and drawers. _ _ The Magistrate—Have you not a brother in America ? Witness':-.Yes. The Magistrate—Does this man resemble him hi any ? way Witness—No ; he is not at all like him ; my brother was taller, thinner, and much fairer. (While saying this, however, there seemed to be an un easy feeling about witness.) Mary Ann Sparks identified all the articles except the pistol. Thought the chain seemed more soiled than her sister's. _ _ Sergeant Jervis produced a key sent by Harriet Willis. Witness went to Denham, took off the lock of Marshall's house, and compared the key with it. The key opened the lock, and the two corresponded in every particular. At the close of the evidence the Chairman of the Bench put the usual questions to the pri soner, who fumbled at a written scroll which had been under his arm all day, but said he had nothing to say. He was then committed to the next assizes in June on the charge of wilful murder. Before leaving the room prisoner asked to have the ss. 9d. returned to him which the police had found upon him, and except when one of the witnesses pointed at him he never flinched throughout the examination, although evidently impressed at times with, the weight of evidence against him. He scanned most of the witnesses narrowly. THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY MORNING, JUNE ,1, 1870. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS.-TUESDA Y. The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at five o'clock. _ _ _ HIGH COURT OF JUSTICE BILL. Lord CAIRNS gave notice that on the bringing up the report of amendments to this bill, he should move a reso lution with respect to the further progress of the measure. contractors in order that convict and hired labour might be employed thereon. The instances he had mentioned were not the only thing that re quired explanation, as he was in possession of information which chewed that contracts for ma and chinery and boiler houses had been entered in neither case had there been any copies of the contracts laid on the table. It was desirable that inquiry should be made, because he felt assured that without such was done the country would be called upon to pay an amount for extra work, that would oc casion much surprise. Having stated his opinion that Deptford Dockyard had been sold much below its value, he concluded by asking the House to insist upon the in quiry that he asked for. Sir H. SELWYN IBBETSON seconded the motion. He was of opinion that the sum for which the land of Deptford Dockyard had been sold was very much below its actual value, and if it was uot, as he supposed it was, from cer tain information in his possession, it was desirable that the matter should be fully explained. It was also desir able that the statements in circulation that the purchaser, a Mr. Austin, who was a partner with a Mr. Bristowe, was a brother of the solicitor to the Admiralty, and therefore stood in a more than ordinary favourable position, should be thoroughly explained. Mr. Alderman SALOMONS said he had been in communi cation with the right hon. gentleman relative to the sale of Deptford dockyard, and nothing certainly could have been more open or straightforward than his explanation with respect to the property. When he asked him the price he told him it had been nearly fixed at £BO,OOO, but that he believed a satisfactory offer of £75,000 would not be re fused. There had been all manner of rumours in circula tion with respect to the sale of this property, one of which was that it had been disposed of to a company of American shipbuilders for £140,000. However, he had merely risen to bear his testimony to the frank and open manner in which the right hon. gentleman (Mr. Childers) had acted during the time he was in communication with him relative to the disposal of the property. SIR JAMES ELPHINSTONE, supported the motion for the appointment of a Select Committee. Mr. BAXTER detailed the action taken by the Admiralty with reference to Deptford dockyard. They were advised not to sell it by public auction. The trans action with Mr. Austin, was made through Mr. Marsh, the well-known auctioneer, and the Admiralty were not aware, in the first instance, that the former was the principal. Sir JOHN PAKINGTON said that the explanation of the Secretary of the Admiralty with reference the sale of Deptford dockyard had not justified him, and remarked that the Government would not have been compelled to accept any bid at a public auction, inasmuch as they could have fixed a reserve price. Mr. SAMUDA said the fact was clear that the House had only authorised an expenditure of £1,250,000 in the case of Chatham, and an alteration had been made with out the attention of the House being directed to it, or without its permission having been obtained. He thought that some explanation was required on the subject of. Chatham and Portsmouth Dockyards. On the face of the matter it appeared as if a great deal of favouritism had been shown the contractor. It was stated in a report that this large excess which the country was asked to pay was mainly attributable to the want of convicts, and yet, not withstanding this, the contractor had the difficult part of his work taken away and given to the convicts to execute. Mr. TREVELYAN contended that the late Government knew all about the condition and position of the Chat ham and Portsmouth extension works. He defended the director of works, and complained that some very hard words had been said about him. The hon. gentleman stated that there were now 1,100 convicts employed on the works instead of 700. At great length he described the nature of the work, and the principal circumstances at tending the contract, with the view of shooing a select committee was 'accessary. The Government asked the House to trust the Admiralty in this matter, and remarked that by the end of the year they would be in a position to see whether a select committee was necessary. The House divided, and the motion was lost. The House then adjourned until nine o'clock. VISITATION FEES. Mr. LOPES called attention to the present state of the law with regard to the payment of visitation fees by churchwardens, but he did not move any resolution. NAVAL STORES. Sir JOHN HAY moved for a return of stores rejected at Portsmouth Dockyard since the Purchase Department had been established at the Admiralty, and copy of any correspondence between the Admiralty and Rear-Admiral A. C. Key on the subject of his removal from Portsmouth dockyard. Mr. CHILDERS said he had no objection to the first part of the motion.

Last evening Mr Humphreys held an inquest at the Rising Sun Tavern, Sidney-street, Stepney, to inquire into the death of Mrs Sarah Redhead ; the deceased was 51 years of age. In opening the inquiry the Coroner read a 1 tter, sent by Ellen Redheal, who is a domestic servant at an hotel i❑ Piccadilly, to her brother, the young man who is in custody, charged, on his own confession, with the murder of the deceased, who was his stepmother. It was put in with the view of showing that there was a misunderstanding in the family with regard to a young ma❑ who was paying his attentions to the writer of the letter. • The following evidence was taken : Thomas Ashton, 83, Sidney-street, deposed that be knew the deceased woman, Sarah Redhead. She was the second wife of James Redhead, the steward of a ship now on its way from China to England. She lived with her step son, William Redhead He was a member of be 7th Tower Hamlets Rifle Corps. At half-past two o'clock on Monday afternoo last witness was at borne in his front room, and he heard fire-arms go off, and, believing it was a man who lived next door, he went to the front door for the purpose of speaking to his neighbour, and saw William Red head run out. Mary Ann Morris, a married woman, who occupied the top front room of the house No. 80, Sidney-street, said that bho knew the deceased well, having resided in the house twelve months. The deceased had been married ten months. She bad a stepson about eighteen years of age. He was employed by a wine merchant near London bridge. She had never heard the deceased and her stt p son quarrel. They appeared to live on the best of terms. He was not a religious young man. He used to laugh when religion was talked about. Ho went out every day but Monday. On Monday afternoon he shut, himself up in his room and ;pulled down the blinds. About half-past two o'clock witness beard the report of a gun. She was then 11,t the top of the staircase, and on looking down saw the body of the deceased lying at the foot of the stairs. She saw the stepson . leave the house with the rifle in his hand and smoke coming out of the muzzle. After evidence to the same effect by another witness, Mr. Philip Page made a statement with regard to William Redhead. It was to the effect that on Saturday he was present at the ball practice of his corps. Twenty rounds of ball cartridge were served out, and Redhead told the witness he had used all his. Volunteers were not allowed to take unused ball cartridge home with them. Redhead was a good shot, and a very steady young man. The inquiry was adjourned until after the post-um:tem examination. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-- (YESTEDAY.) BURNING A WOMAN WITH A BED-}[OT POKER.—Han nah Lamb, who exhibited in a quarrel all the fury of a tigress, was brought before Mr. Lushingtou, at the Thames Police office, charged with savagely assaulting Ellen Hurley. The parties live in an Irish colony, called Waterloo-place, Samuel-street, St. George-in-the-East, and last night they quarrelled. Mrs. Lamb brought out a red-hot poker, with which she attacked her neighbour, and severely butt her arms and neck. Mrs. Hurley seized hold of the poker, but she caught hold of the wrong end, and burnt her hand badly. A boy then kicked the poker out of Mrs. Lamb's hand, and she was secured. Several witnesses deposed to the violence of Mrs. Lamb, her coarse language, and brutal threats. She called out on emerging from the house, "Where is that cat ? I'll frizzle her with the poker." Mr. Lushington sentenced her to six months' imprisonment and hard labour. ASSAULTING THE POLICE.—Thos. George House, a rough looking fellow, was brought before Mr Tyrwhitt at the Marlborough-street Police-court, on a warrant, charged with assaulting the police. On Sunday night Police-constable Cook, 133 C, was taking a man into custody, and while he was stooping over the man the prisoner came up and kicked him in the side. He told the prisoner to go away, and the prisoner then went and struck and kicked another constable (Foster, 98 C), and succeeded in getting away, but was taken into custody last night. In answer to Mr Tyrwhitt, the police stated that the prisoner was tho ringleader of a gang of roughs residing in Peter-street, St. James's, and was the terror of the neighbourhood. He was sent t o prison for five weeks for the two assaults. On dit that M. Charles Laffitte, whose horse, AI. Bigarreau, won the French Derby, has netted £lO,OOO. Miss Brackenbury, of Brighton, has given a dona tion of £5,000 towards the completion of the Manchester Grammar School, and the foundation of three scholarships. It is understood that Mr. W. H. Barrow, the senior member for South Nottinghamshire, will shortly resign his seat on account of the infirmities incidental to his advanced age. At the Hull Police-court two privates of the East York Militia were fined 50s. each and costs for having. whilst sworn to serve as militiamen, enlisted in the Royal Marines Light Infantry. The Sultan was successfully launched at Chatham yesterday. The christening ceremony was performed by the daughter of the Turkish ambassador. The Sultan is the largest ironclad in the world. A contemporary understands, "on reliable ntl thority," that Mr. Hughes will abandon his bill on horse racing and betting, it being generally admitted that the measure was both ill-timed and iil-advised. THE CROYDON TRAGEDY.—John Carpenter Carver was yesterday again brought up before the Croydon bench of magistrates, charged with feloniously murdering his wife, Mary Carver, at No. 36, South-end, Croydon, on the 26th of May. Some further evidence having been taken, the prisoner was further remanded till Saturday next. THE MURDERS IN GREECE. Another (the thirteenth) instalment of correspondence, in regard to the Greek murders, was issued from the Foreign Office yester day. he first despatch, dated Achnutaga, May 4, is addressed by Mr. Frank Noel to Mr. Edward Noel, in which be gives an account of what took place from the day he left Chalcis for Oropos up to the time he left on the Thursday previous (the 12th). The information contained in the document has been substan tiallyanticipated by other despatches, which have been r eceived. In the inclosur e in No 3, dated Misso already Vice-Consul-Blakeney informs Mr. Erskine l t o h n a g t h th i' e l‘ f l a a l y n 18, ou brigand chief Deli bad been slain with live or six of his followers. But the last despatch, dated Athens, May 21, gives an account of the preliminary stage of the trial of the brigands. • THE SMALL-PDX IN PARIS.--The small-pox epi demic has just carried off a gallant and popular naval officer, Captain Georgette Dubuisson. For the last few years he has acted as A.D.C. to Prince Napoleon, and commanded his yac h t . The Duke do Caumont Laforce, a senator, has also been attacked, but is in a fair way to recover.

This bill, the object of which is to amend the law with respect to the forfeiture of the property of felons, and which was introduced in the other House by Mr. C. Forster, was read a second time. NORWICH VOTERS' DISFRANCHISEMENT BILL. The House went into committee on this bill. On clause 2 being proposed, Lord CAIRNS moved an amendment to extend the exceptions set out in the clause to the name of Mr. Arthur Bignold, as the evidence brought forward to show that he was implicated in the corrupt practices that took place at the late election was less than that upon which Mr. Stracey was acquitted. The LORD CHANCELLOR said he had looked into the case of Mr. Bignold, and he did not think the evidence was brought up to conviction, and therefore he would net object to the proposition. The other clauses were agreed to, and the bill was re ported with one amendment. The Churchwardens' Liability Bill passed through com mittee and was reported with amendments. On the motion for going into committee on the Bridg water and Beverley Disfranchisement bill, Lord FAVERSHAM thought the bill a very severe one, and asked whether any arrangement had been made with respect to the disposal of the vacant seats. Earl GRANVILLE said he was unable to answer the ques tion, and then their lordships resolved themselves into committee on the bill, which was afterwards reported with amendments. In reply to Lord Redesdale, The LORD CHANCELLOR said with respect to the Real Estate Succession Bill it was intended to go on with it at the earliest opportunity. Their lordships adjourned at five minutes past seven until Monday week. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—TUESDAY. The Speaker took the chair at five minutes past two o'clock. THIRD READINGS. The following bills were read a third time :—Chelsea Rectory Bill, International Communication Bill, New castle and Gateshead Water Bill, Newcastle-upon-Tyne Improvement Bill, Poole and Bournemouth Railway, Bill, Teign Valley Railway Bill, West Hartlepool Extension and Improvement Bill, Downpatrick Dundrum and New castle Railway Bill, and the Thames Navigation Bill. TYNE IMPROVEMENT BILL. On the third reading of this bill. Mr. EUSTACE SMITH moved that the order for the third reading be discharged, and that the bill be re-committed in order to reduce borrowing power to the amount originally in the bill. It was a very dangerous precedent, he contended, that any public body having the power of borrowing and investing large sums of money should pro mote a bill which at the second reading should contain limited powers, and when it went upstairs should involve a sum fourtimes the original amount. Mr. STEVENSON supported the third reading of the bill. He said the alteration in the amount, increasing it from £lOO,OOO .to £400,000 had been known for upwards of a fortnight, and yet no action had been taken until Satur day last. Mr. HEADLAM also supported the bill. Mr. CowEN said that if the - bill asked for additional taxation, the arguments of the member for Tynemouth might have had some force, but the promoters of the measure did not ask for anything beyond authority to borrow money necesssay to carry out works for which they had already Parliamentary powers to execute. Mr. DODSON said it was a bill which it was desirable in the interest of the public to pass. The course proposed by the member for Tynemouth was very unusual. The bill proposed to put an end to the dues now levied by the Corporation of Newcastle on the shipping of the Tyne, on terms which appeared to him to be very equitable. Mr. SMITH said that after the expression of opinion from the member for East Sussex he knew what the de cision of the House would be, and he should withdraw his motion. The bill was accordingly read a third time. MILITARY RESERVE FUND. Colonel NORTIt asked the Secretary of State for War whether the recommendations contained in Paragraphs 15 and 18 of the report from the Select Committee on Military Reserve Funds, had been carried into effect— namely, that the reserve fund should be wound up, and the balance paid into the Exchequer; and, if so, whether a sufficient sum had been taken in the army- esti mates to defray all payments charged on the reserve fund. _ _ . Mr. CARDWELL replied that the recommendation s had not been carried into effect, and the balance had not been paid into the Exchequer. TRUSTEES OF SAVINGS BANKS. Sir JOHN Lunsocs asked the Chancellor of th e Exche quer why the excess of intere st p aid to the tru stees of savings' banks during the year 1869 over that rece ived by the Commissioners amounted to £ 217,254 15s. 10 d. , while the excess for the year 1868 was only £17,091 lls. 2d. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER replied that the amount which was paid to the Commissioners for the Reduction of the National Debt on account of savings' banks in respect of terminable annuities was, in 1868, £2,780,000, and in 1869 only £2,1)8,000, so that there was a difference between the two years of £522,000, and the cause of that difference was the arrangements which were made as to the period of paying the balances. OPEN COMPETITION IN THE CIVIL SERVICE. Mr. WINTERBOTHAM asked the First Lord of the Treasury whether he was able to state what steps had been taken for "the establishment of a system of open competition on an extended stele " in the Civil Service, in accordance with the expectation held out to the House on the 10th of April, 1869, and renewed on the 25th of February, 1870. Mr. GLADSTONE stated in reply that in redemption of the pledge which the Government gave at an earlier pe r i o d of the Session they had steadily prosecuted the measures which were contemplated in the discussions which took place in that House, and the arrangements connected with open competition, and connected with other elements of change in the offices that belonged to the subject, or attached to it, were now in a very forward state, and he hoped in the course of two or three weeks to be able to lay upon the table of the House conclusive documents relating to the subject. THE METROPOLITAN POLICE FORCE. Mr. EYKYN gave notice that he should call attention to the unsatisfactory state of the metropolitan police force, and to move for a select committee to inquire into the subject. THE FENIAN RAID IN CANADA. In reply to Colonel North, Mr. MONSELL said that, according to the information which he had received that day, all was quiet on the fron tier. Many of the Fenians were begging their way home from Malone. General Lindsay proposed to reduce the military force at varions points. The Fenian stores were much wasted. NAVAL ADMINISTRATION. On the motion for going into committee of supply on the Navy Estimates, Mr. CORBY drew attention to the return ordered to be printed, in reference to the navy victualling yards. The hon. gentleman condemned the system of supplying stores to the navy. Mr. BAXTER in replying to the observation made by Mr. Corry, pointed out the immense saving which had been effected by the system now in vogue. CHATHAM AND PORTSMOUTH DOCKYARDS. Mr. CAWLEY moved for a select committee to inquire into the circumstances and causes which have led to the large increase in the cost of the works for the extension of the dockyards at Chatham and Portsmouth beyond the amounts set forth in the Act 28 and 29 Vic., c. 51; also, into the circumstances which have led to the disposal of Deptford Dockyard for an amount so much below the value thereof stated in the Stock Valuation Account. The hon. gentleman entered at some length into the system that had been pursued with respect to works going on in these dockyards, and said he thought the House would agree with him that it was desirable that some ex planation should be given why contracts entered into in the year 1869, had net been signed, and laid on the table on the last day of May, 1870. He was also of opinion that it was most de • sirable that it should be explained why works and the contracts which had been entered into with a view to economy should have been taken out of the hands of private DUNVILLE and Co., Belfast, are the largest holders of whisky in the world. Their Old Irish Whisky is recommended by the medical profession in preference to French trend . Sup plied in casks and cases for home use or exportation. Quotations on application to Messrs DUNVILLE & co., Royal Irish Dis tilleries, Belfast; or at their London Offices, 4, Beaufort Buildings Strand, BENEFICES BILL. This bill was read a third time. VACCINATION ACT (1867) AMENDMENT BILL. Mr. CANDLISH moved the second reading of this bill, but in deference to the feeling of the House he postporied his motion. THE GREEK MURDERS. On the motion for going into Committee of Supply on the Navy Estimates, Sir JAMES ELPHINSTONE drew attention to a statement which he had made on the previous night to the effect that if the naval force in Greek waters had not been reduced the murders which recently took place would not have occurred. He now repeated that statement, and remarked that it was a most dangerous thing to reduce the squad rons on foreign stations. Sir J. HAT expressed his opinion that if Mr. Erskine had had an English war vessel instead of a Greek gun boat the massacre would not have happened. Mr. CHILDERS again assured the hon. gentleman that the Mediterranean fleet had not been reduced. NAVY ESTIMATES. The House then went into Committee on the Navy Estimates. A discussion, which lasted more than two hours, .was raised on the proposed grant of £779,090 necessary to defray the expenses of naval stores, building, repairing, and outfitting of the fleet and coast guard.—Mr. GOURLEY moved to reduce the sum by £33,000 ; but the proposition was negatived without a dvision, and the original amount was granted. The next estimate was £466,173 in respect to steam ma chinery and ships building by contract, and after some discussion the amount was voted. The sum of £744,232 was granted to defray new works, buildings, machinery, and repairs. The sum of £133,966, to defray the expenses of Greenwich Hospital and schools was voted, and the House resumed. PEMBROKE AND TENBY RAILWAY (No. 2: BILL. This bill was reported to the House, with amendments. METROPOLITAN BOARD OF WORKS (LOANS) BILL. This bill was read a third time. TURNPIKE TRUSTS ARRANGEMENTS BILL. This measure was read a third time without opposition. PIER AND HARBOUR ORDERS CONFIRMATION (No. 2) BILL. This bill was read a second time. WHITSUNTIDE RECESS. Mr. GLADSTONE moved that the House at its rising adjourn until Thursday in next week. At fifteen minutes past one the House adjourned accordingly. It is expected that her Majesty the Queen will hold a Council at Balmoral on Saturday next. It has been mentioned during the hearing of the case of Boulton and Park, that there are between 30 and 40 persons more or less improperly connected with this systematic adoption of women's clothes. Mr. John Stuart Mill, and Professor Carrara, of the University of Pisa, have been elected associates of the Belgian Academie Royale, in place of M. Sebastien Lenormand and the Marquis Laborde.
