Sir J. PAKINGTON said the clause had not been 'sent to the Commander-in-Chief, who had not seen the bill until it was in print. There was nothing now in the clause, which was at present the law of the land. Militia men, as the law now stood, could be sentenced to service in her Majesty's regular land forces.

If one wanted to distinguish this year's great turf event by some more distinctive character than the mere name of the winner, we should call it the year of mediocrities and misfortunes. Never has there been a more indifferent lot than will face the starter on Wednesday, and rarely has there been such an extinction of favourites as this anni versary has witnessed. The Hermit, Ptaudit, D'Estournel, and The Rake, undoubtedly the best two-yr-old form of last year, have either entirely disappeared, or hold that dubious position in the market which is almost equivalent to being "gone." Plaudit's exhibition in the Two Thou sand was the first blow, and :Elie Rake's mishap on Friday the last. Mr. Pryor's horse since that day has somewhat recovered his position, and he, as well as Hermit, are announced as certain starters; but their chances must bo estimated by the fact that both Jaaxa broken blood vessels, and been necessarily stopped in their work. Plaudit, wo believe, does enough work, and goes well enough to satisfy his stable, but hardly the public. D'Estournel is reported amiss, and there is nothing, say the oracles, but Vauban and Van Amburgh on the list, and ono must win. The coming of The Feltner yesterday to 12 to 1 was the chief feature of a dull afternoon. Vauban's remark able firmness, and the eagerness of the public to get on even at the price of 65 to 40 ; the mysterious position of Van Amburgh, who is now said not to be sold, and whose whereabouts the keenest "tout" has been unable to dis cover ; and the heavy glace investments on Marksman and Julius were the others. The Rake went the Derby course this morning—galloped would probably be hardly the right term—and according to some went well, to others "blew like a grampus." With the exception of The Hermit and two more, there were no other Derby horses out. The ground is now in excellent order, but as it is raining, heavily while we write, and with every prospect of continuance, there may be a different tale to-morrow. The day was as disagreeable as could be—cold, wet, and cheerless. Old Moulsey galloped away from his field in the Craven, and Nine Elms cleverly won the New Tatter sall's Stakes. The fielders had a turn in the Woodcote Stakes, for which there was a large field, and the highly-tried Inner dale, belonging to the Duke of Hamilton, the favourite. He did but ill, however, and Le Sarrazin, a Monarque colt belonging to Count do Lagrange, scarcely mentioned in the betting, won, pulling double all the way. The Derby betting showed The Rake, at one time brought to 7 to 1, to decline to 12, and Vain Amburgh to be rather in bad odour at 9 to 1. The Palmer was still advancing, at one time only 10 to 1 being offered, while perhaps the most remarkable fact was the eagerness with which the 50's to 1 about Plaudit were snapped up. Vauban was still as firm as ever, and will doubtless so continue till the flag falls. People declare the race to be " over," but if . the rain continues and the ground gets heavy, some outsider, some - second Merry Monarch, Daniel O'Rourke, or Caractacus may yet drop from the clouds at Tattenham-corner. Still it does not look probable. The public performances of the Duke of Beaufort's horse warrant us in supposing that as he now heads the quotations in the betting so he will the numbers on the telegraph to-morrow.

The Report presented at a Meeting 'held on the 3d January last, for the declaration of the Eictirth BONUS, showed, DUNVILLE'S V.R. OLD IRISH WHISKY, BELFAST, Is regularly supplied to the House of Lords. V.R." IRISH WHISKY. 1. As TO THE PROGRESS OF THE SOCIETY, that, during the quinquennial pried which terminated on the 30th June, 1866, . Mr. D. GRIFFITH asked the Chancellor of the Ex chequer whether he was aware that in Ireland no property not exceeding £1 in value was rated ; and that the proposed Parliamentary rating franchise could not devolve on oc cupiers in that country at or below that amount ;,and, if so, whether he proposed to establish a lower Parliamentary franchise in England than in Ireland ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said the language of the question was not correct. It stated that no property under £1 value is rated, but the fact was that all property under £4 was rated. With respect to the second part of his question, ho thought it would be more convenient if he would wait for information on that sub ject, when his noble friend the Secretary of Ireland brought forward the Irish Reform Bill. For 35 years the franchises of England and Ireland had not been identical. THE DERBY DAY. DUNVILLE and CO.'S " V.R." OLD IRISH w RISKY, BELFAST.

Established las. - Quotations on application, NEW ASSURANCES for a total sum of £1,518,181, and yielding £50,497 in Annual Premiums, had been effected, t of which sums the former exceeded by £31,811, and tlin latter by .£2,392, the corresponding items of any previous period; that THE INCOME had increased from £193,400 to £215,327 per annum ; and that THE ASSURANCE FUND, after plyment of £85,303 on account of Bonus at the last Division, had risen from £1,422,191 to £1,619,339. 2. As TO THE FINANCIAL POSITION OP THE SOCIETY. That the Assets on June 30, 1860, were £1,619,539 14 8 And the Liabilities on the same date ... 1,343,708 19 2 Leaving a surplus of ~: £275,830 15 6 and that, after sotting aside £50,000 as a special Reserve Fund, On the motion of the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHE QUER, it was agreed that the house at its rising adjourn until Thursday. THE AVAILABLE PROFIT was £225,830 15s. Gd., of which sum £225,000 was recommended for division. DWELLING HOUSES. 3. As TO THE RESULTS OF THE DIVISION. That the portion of this sum of £225,000—viz., five-sixths, or £lB7,soo—which fell to the Assured, would yield a REVERSIONARY ADDITION TO THE POLICIES of £272,682, averaging 45 per Cent., or varying, with the different ages, from 32 to 85 per Cent. on the premiums paid since the last division; and that the CASH BONUS, which is the exact equivalent of such Reversionary Bonus, would average 26 per Cent. of the like premiums. The Report explained at length the nature of the In vestments and the bases of the Calculations, the results of which, as above shown, are eminently favourable. Mr. AYRTON moved for a return of the number of dwelling houses (not included in a composition under any general or local Act) on account of which the land lord or owner paid the poor rates by agreement with the overseers or other authority assessing or collecting the same in the citios and boroughs in England and Wales returning members to Parliament.—The return was ordered.,. MUNICIPAL CORPORATIONS (METROPOLIS). Mr. MILL moved for leave to bring in a bill for the establishment of municipal corporations in the several dis tricts of the metropolis. Mr. AYRTON thought the bill when brought in would not fulfil the object the hon. member had in view. Mr. LOCKE thought it far more preferable to divide the metropolis into wards, each of which should elect an alderman and common council in the same manner as the City of London. Colonel Sykes thought the bill was an attempt to sweep away the liberties of the City of London. Mr. G. HARDY said, on the part of the Government, he should offer no opposition to the introduction of the bill ; but with respect to the course the Government might take after that measure had been introduced, he would give no promise. The subject was a very intricate one, and the metropolitan members wore themselves not agreed upon the subject. Leave was given to bring in the bill. THE SALTERS' ESTATE IN IRELAND. Mr. O'REILLY called attention to the circumstances under which the Salters' Company had refused a site for a Roman Catholic Church in Magherafelt; and moved an humble address to her Majesty, praying that she would be graciously pleased to revoke such portion, if any, of the charter of the Salters' Company as impeded the obtaining of a site for a Roman Catholic Church on their property. Mr. COGAN seconded the motion, which was supported by Colonel FRENCH. Mr. DAWSON, who spoke with the authority of a resi dent proprietor in regard to the need of inereased church accommodation for the Roman Catholic population, hinted that the objection of the Salters' Company was directed more to pnrcteelar than to general considerations, the local gossip being that the Roman Oectholi.g insisted on a par ticular site for their church, with the intention of ovet- -,-- topping with their spire the spires of the Episcopalian and Presbyterian churches in the same little town. The com pany will be happy to reconsider the case, and abandon any obsolete or unusual interpretation of the charter ; in which there are many things which could not now be adhered to. They are, holvever, of opinion that the site asked for is inconvenient. They had granted an extension of the existing site, and given donations to the stipend of the priest and the expenses of the schools; and although they entered into possession of their property under pecu liar circumstances and under disadvantages, the evictions on the estate had been few, snd principally for non-pay ment of rent. There is nothing in the charter which will prevent a fair, just, and generous settlement of the ques tion without the interference of the house between the company and their tenants. The next DIVISION OF PROFITS will take place in January, 1872, and Persons who effect NEW POLICIES BEFORE Tim END OF JUNE NEXT will be entitled at that Division to one year's additional share of Profits over later Assurers.

Indian Star, in company with Chapel Royal and Ther mometer, made play, having Knight of St. Michael, Fakir, Tumbler, and the favourite wide on their right to the turn into the straight, when the three latter ran wide. This mishap gave a clear lead to Indian Star, who with T her- Mr. MAGUIRE enforced the complaint against tho company. Major O'REILLY said as the company now withdrew the ground they had before put forward, he would with draw his motion. After a few words of explanation from Mr. DAWSON, the motion was withdrawn. Mr. BENTINCE called attention to the mode in which the Ecclesiastical Commissioners have dealt with the• claims of the non-capitular members of cathedral and col legiate churches to increased stipendd, and moved for copies of the questions which have lately been issued to the non-capitular members of cathedral and collegiate churches, and the replies thereto. Mr. MOWBRAY assented to the motion, which was agreed to, after some remarks from Mr. Hankey and Mr. W. N. Hodgson. 1 HABEAS CORPUS SUSPENSION (IRELAND) ACT. Lord NAAS asked leave to introduce a bill to renew, for a limited period, the Habeas Corpus Suspension (Ire land) Act, and said nothing short of an absolute convic tion of the necessity for the interests and peace of the country that the Habeas Corpus Suspension Act should be renewed would induce him to make this motion. The events of the last few months are so fresh in the recollec tion of the house that it is unnecessary to recapitulate them. An organisation, which had lasted between four and five y e ars, culminated on the sth of March in an abortive at tempt at insurrection. It may bo said to have lasted not more than a few hours. This result was brought about very much by the precautions taken by the Government, the loyalty of the population generally, and the extra ordinary fidelity and courage of the constabulary, to whom the country owes a deep debt of gratitude. But had it not been for the suspension of this Act, the sup- , pression of this movement would have been more diffi cult. As it was the Government were enabled for several I days before the outbreak took place to imprison such per sons who had turned out to bo prominent leaders in the movement, many of whom had a short time before arrived in Ireland for the purpose of joining in it. There appears at this moment every sign of a great collapse in the organ isation. (Hear, hear.) But precautions are still necessary, secret societies continuing to exercise an influence of ter ror, and thero are a considerable number of persons still in custody whose release could not be effected at. once with safety. The Government have always been of opinion that the powers of the Act ought not to be exercised except for the purpose of placing under restraint, for a short time, persons whom the Government are satis i &dare conspiring against the welfare of the State. There ' aro now in custody, under the Lord Lieutenant's warrants, 211 persons. Since tho 26th February 142 persons have been arrested, but several of these have already beeu sent for trial. From the 26th February to the 20th of May, 31 persons have been Llischarged from custody, and the last arrest under the powers of this Act was made so far back as the 23d April. There has been an impression that the Government was unwise in releasing so many, but this was not done without consideration, and no mischievous effect followed. Since the Act was first suspended in 1866 961 persons have been arrested, and of these 778 have been released by the late and pr3sent Government. The per sons who have been so released were watched with more than ordinary vigilance, and he was happy to say that out of the total number of 778 it was found necessary to re-arrest only 26. (Hear, hear.) He proposed to extend the operation of the Act to the Ist of March next, and he hoped and believed that when that time arrived the power which it conferred would be no longer necessary. (Hear.) Mr. MAGUIRE expressed a hope that the bill would not be hurried forward by the Government without giving the House ample time for its discussion. Leave was given to bring in the bill. Some time was occupied in the discussion of the rival Scotch Game Bills of Mr. M‘Lagan and Lord Elcho, both of which were ultimately read a second time and referred to a select committee. motneter, and Knight of St. Michael lying up, came in ad vance to the Stand. Here Nine Elms, who had gradually recovered his lost ground, came up on the upper ground, and obtaining a slight advantage of a dozen strides from the chair, won a fine race by half a length. Thermometer defeated the Knight by a neck for second ; Chapel Royal was fourth, Indian Star fifth, and Fakir next. The last two were Breach of Promise and Tumbler.

A long delay at the post preceded an unsatisfactory, start, in which Balsam©, iu company with Lady Highthoru, Cork Jacket, Le Sarazzin, and Hatchment got away in advance ; the favourite, Speculum, and Restitution being seen among the rear division. When fairly in the straight the last-named somewhat imprived their position, and at the distance Lady Hightheru headed Balsa-no, and came on slightly in advance of Cork Jacket and Le Sarraziu but on reaching the enclosure she gave way to the French representative, who was joined by Restitution and Spect . t• lum, who finished a splendid race home , b ut Lo Sarni= held his own to the end, and won cleverly at last by a length, Speculum, who came with a rush a dozen strides from home, defeating the Baron's colt by a head only lot second honours.

MANCHESTER, May 21. —The market generally is quieter, and prices in some instances have been in favour of the buyer. For shipping yarns the market to-day has been very quiet. Spinners being deeply under contract have shown no disposition to sell un less at the full quotations they are asking. Home trade yarns are steady in price, but there has not been much business. Where there is any change in price it is slightly against sellers, b•ut spinners hav ing a good supply of orders are not generally press ing sales where there is much difficulty in obtain ing their own terms. The cloth market has exhibited no new or marked feature since last Tuesday. Buyers have so fully supplied their wants that they are not continuing to buy any descriptions of cloth in quan tity, and what business has been done during the last few days has been confined to small lots. Of course, the demand which has taken place over the last few weeks, by clearing out stocks and placing manufacturers under contract, has strengthened their position, so that priced arc exceedingly firm for nearly all kinds of cloth. To-day the cloth market has been quiet in tone, but producers are firm in asking the very full quotations of last Tuesday. The actual business done to-day has not been consider able in amount. Messrs. John Slagg and Co., in their report of this day's cloth market, say:—"Prices have experienced but little fluctuation during the week, and as buyers have recently operated pretty freely the business has been of less amount. To-day we repeat our quotations of Tuesday, and have to report an inactive market." LEEDS, 21.—The woollen market has been quiet, and the buyers who were present showed great cau tion. The goods most in demand were plain cloths and dark tweeds, of the steel and blue-grey mixtures. Of the former a few rather extensive purchases were made ; but the paucity of those who were willing to buy was a great drawback. The kind of tweeds just mentioned were much fancied last year for the sea son now approaching. To-day's transactions have been principally in home account. The continental trade has not yet recovered its wonted energy ; but all here who are accustomed to engage in it antici pate a full renewal of business before long. The de mand for white cloth to-day has only been moderate.. Lower than the usual prices have been accepted by manufacturers in this department. There has been a moderate inquiry for heavy goods, but no large clearance. - ROCHDALE, 20.—The flannel market to-day has presented all the appearances of a busy time, but the quantity of goods actually sold was not to be measured by the number of interested pahrtaivese betoken hper een sent. Owing to this being the time for reple n i s hi ng , the country stocks of wool there is a sort of paus e in the customary flow of orders. T plenty of inquiries to-day of a characterhere to that orders may be relied on when all parties have agreed as to au average of rates for thefuture. Some small orders for fancies were given out to-day, but l if ee m a u m ch ad l e es e s h d ie o a n y ig fo i tr i a nPdlrlotivt has i - i goods.cia l purposes.Business I : there have the warehouses is quiet, the Yorkshire department Jere been rather more selections from stock doing in goods for the fall trade. There is only a nominal demand for wool. PREMATURE 13A.LDNE8S. —Nlr. J.

The following bills wore read a third time and passed : —Poole Roads, Orkney Roads, Eton Gas, Ross and Mon mouth Railway, Middle Level Drainage, Heywood Im provement, and Mold Gas and Water. PURCHASE AND SALE OF SHARES BILL. Lord REDESDALE said that he had no hesitation in putting this bill before their lordships, for they must all see the advisability of adopting such a measure. The ob jection to the bill was that it would be a restriction, but it was entirely different if they looked into the matter fairly He moved that the bill should be road a second time. TENURE (IRELAND) BILL. Lord CLANRICARDE moved the second reading of this bill, which was agreed to. The Duke of BUCKINGHAM, ill moving the second reading of the Contagious Diseases (Animals) Bill, after giving an elaborate history of-the recent and former out breaks, stated that the legislation of last session, enabling the Privy Council to issue orders to meet special cases, had been productive of great advantage. The bill now pro posed would continue existing powers, and in some respects would extend them as experience had shown to be necessary. After a brief discussion, in the course of which a general assent was given, upon an understandin g that it would be referred to a select committee, the bill was read a second time. The bill for abolishing the office of Vice -President of the Board of Trade was read a second tine. The sitting was closed at half-past six o'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS—LAST EVENING. Thu SPEAKER took the chair at four o'clock. THE ROYAL ENGINEERS, Sir B. L. GUINNESS asked the Secretary of State for War if he would furnish to the house a return of the names of the civil officers of the Royal Engineers who have died on foreign service during the past ten y ears ; and ; why their widows had not pensions allotted to them, as was the case with the widows of the other officers of the Royal Engineers, and whether the Government purposed to make them such provision in future ? Sir J. PAKINGTON said he would willingly furnish the names required. The reason pensions were not al. lotted to widows of officers was that the officers were under the Superannuation Act, and therefore they were not entitled to public pensions. THE POOR LAW BOARD. In reply to Ca FRENCH, The CHANCELLOR of the Exo l lE,„ Utat __ said, in making the appointment of President of the Poor Law Board, he had been influenced solely by the consideration of securing the services of the person most fitted to fulfil the duties of the office. Although the appointment had been held since its creation uniformly by members of the House of Commons, there was nothing in the act cur tailing the privileges of the Premier in confining his Cabi net appointments to a particular House of Parliament. It was quite true that Lori Devon had been appointed to fill the office of President of the Poor -law Board, and he felt that it was an appointment•which Parliament would approve, and in which the country at large would have confidence. Mr. BOUVERIE thought the appointment an excellent one, and he was of opinion that if both sides of the Housos of Parliament had boon hunted round a better selection could not have been made. Lord Devon's acquaintance with the duties of the office were well known, and that circumstance very greatly strengthened the appointment. NAVAL SAVINGS' BANKS.
