(Hear, hear.) THE ABYSSINIAN . PRISONERS. Colonel SYKES asked the Secretary of State for India whether there was any and what foundation for a rumour circulating in Bombay that troops had been told off for an expeditio❑ into Abyssinia ? Sir S. NORTIICOTE said there was no truth in the rumour; no troops had been told off; and ho had to in form the hon. member that a correspondence was going on which he hoped would lead to tho release of the Abyssi nian captives. (Lim-, hear.) Ho had, however, in a con fidential communication to India, asked what could be done in the event of force betoming necessary in that direction. then a duty to take into consideration all the prevailing opinions, and even the fears and it may be ignorance. Go vernments must make concessions here and there, and offer what seems best to meet the average sentiment of the nation. Even if the Government of Lord Derby had only repeated the proposal of Lord John Russell's measure under Lord Palmerston to give a LEO franchise to the counties and .D 3 to the boroughs, I should have given it all my support ; but this would not have altered my opinion of the necessity of a lai ger extension. lam ono of those who have been subject to every kind of—what shall I say ? abuse would be a mild word. I have been charged with wishing to urge on Parliament and the country measures of a pernicious character—to "Americanise our institu tions," as it has been phrased. I have no wish to go very fast. My own impression is that in political changes, in all countries, it is an advantage to the country that these should be made by steps rather than all at once. I have always acted on that principle. I have not condemned the Government and a measure because it did not go all the length I wished. I have been willing to support them in every step in that direction, and I have always made allowance for a Government that made any step at all. Mr. GRAVES only uttered the universal opinion of his constituents at Liverpool, including both Liberals and Conservatives, when ho declared that the bill was a fair and just settlement. Ho denied that Mr. Lowe was the exponent of the opinion of any portion of the public, or that he represented any ono besides himself, and expressed his gratitude to the Government and the Chancellor of the Exchequer for so generously fulfilling their pledges. Mr. GOLDS HID believed the measure would bo satis • factory to the country, and had sufficient confidence in the new constituencies to think that they would make a good use of their privileges, and thus refute the sinister prog nostications of the member for Caine. Mr. GORST was of opinion that a largo section of the Conservative party did not approve of the bill, and had voted for it only because they considered that some mea sure must be passed. But he anticipated that those of them who went down to their constituents in the false cloak of Liberalism would be stripped and rejected, and that those who had consistently adhered to their Conser vative principles would be forgiven their opposition to the bill. Mr. COWEN did not share in the alarms of Mr. Lowe, and had no doubt that the new constituencies would exer cise the franchise with judgment, care, and honesty. Mr. B. HOPE pronounced the bill the most democratic that had ever entered the mind of any Government to pro pose, and argued that, after determining to widen the franchise, the first thing they ought to have done was to have settled the boundaries of the boroughs, for .on that foundation rested the permanence of the superstructure. Mr. D. SEYMOUR, who had supported the bill of the late Govornmeut, owned that he preferred that which was now before the house. Mr. BARROW pointed out one or two defects in detail, and urged that a new redistribution scheme was imminent. Lord ELCIIO vindicated the course which had been pursued by the independent members of the house on the subject of Reform, but whilst declarieg his preference for Lord Derby's bill of 1859, accepted the measure on the table as supplying a safer and sounder resting place than anything else after giving up the £lO franchise. Mr. OSBORNE did not question Lord Elcho's indepen dence, but he did question big belonging to the Liberal party. Indeed, he did not believe there were twenty men on that side of the house who coincided with him. Every dog, however, had his day, and the noble lord had had his Day. And the men who last year were the nucleus of a Conservative party, and were designated the party of the Cave : what had become of them ? Like their great under taking, the Day newspaper, they were in bankruptcy. Like the builders of the Tower of Babel, there was confu sion of tongues among them, and they were dispersed on the face of the earth. As to the bill and its paternity, the Chancellor of the Exchequer was no doubt its putative father; but he had stolen it, and, treating it as the gipsies treated stolen children, ho had disfigured it, in order to make it pass for his own. The real author of the measure was, in fact, Mr. Bright. True, the band that brought in the bill was the hand of Lord Derby, but the voice was the voice of John Bright, of whom the great Conservative party were no more than the votaries and followers. llis view of the effects of the measure was that it would lead to a la►ge expenditure on the part of the candidate, and a larger consumption of beer by the voter. But this he hoped, that in the place of "Register, register," the c-y would hereafter bo " Educate, educate." Fur they might rely upon it that they could not .Americanise their institu tions, so far as extending the suffrage was coucnued, without copying other things from America, and especially in the matter of educating the people. Mr. SANDFORD taunted Ministers with inconsistency, remarked that nothing was more easy than to attain suc cess and maintain the semblance of power if they wore only willing to pay the price, and talked of an ignoble tenure of office being dearly purchased by an abandonment of principle. _ _ Mr. DOULTON charged tho mass of tho Liberal party with having been actuated by factious motives and a desire for place in the course thoy had pursued wi h reference to the bill. Mr. NEWDEGATE had for a considerable number of years given his support to the second reading of every comprehensive Reform Bill, because he had seen measure after measure passed which had infringed the principles of the constitution. He said, therefore as a revolution seemed to be going on, let us have it in due order after a Reform Bill. If those groat changes are to be made, let the people have a full and fair representation, and let these changes be their own act through their representatives. Lord E. CECIL entirely concurred in the views of Mr. Lowe, and condemned the bill on the ground that it would perpetuate bribery, increase the influence of wealth, aqd eventually lead to manhood suffrage and electoral districts. In short, there was nothing Conservative, no element of permanence, in it. Mr. LAING put no faith in the prognostications of evil which the house had listened to that night, and therefore accepted the bill the more cheerfully. True, ho did not shut his eyes to the fact that there was some danger; nevertheless, he had confidence in the socialinstitutions of the country, and in the spirit of loyalty which animated the people. Mr. SELWIN-IBBOTSON differed from his colleague, Lord Eustace Cecil, in the opinion ho had expressed of the bill, and was convinced that ho had acted in accordance with the wishes of his constituents in giving it his support. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, who was received with cheers, said :—The debate this evening com menced with what may be described as two very violent speeches. (Hear.) That is to say, speeches very abusive of the measure bof ore us, and very abusive of the Mi nisters who have introduced it. (Laughter.) lam more anxious to vindicate the measure than to defend the Go vernment; but it necessarily happens with questions of this character, which have occupied the attention of Parlia ment for a long term of years, that it is perhaps impossible to distinguish the measure from the Ministry in observa tions of that character. So much depends upon personal conduct and engagement, and so much depends upon the necessity of time and of the temper of the country when the Ministry is called upon definitely to act, that it is per haps impossible to separate in the remarks which I have to offer to the House a consideration of the conduct of the Government from the nature of the bill which we now ask theni to read a third time. It is very easy for the noble lord the member for Stamford (Lord Cranborne), while he talks of a question which has occupied the Mien , tion of Parliament for more than fifteen years, to quote some ambiguous expression which was used at the be ginning of those fifteen years by Lord Derby, and even to quote some small passage of a speech made by myself in the year 1866. But I think that the house on both sides will feel that to arrive at a just judgment of the conduct of public men and of the character of the measures which they propose, it is necessary to take larger and fuller views —(a laugh)—and that measures of this importance and the conduct of those who recommend them, should not bo decided upon by the quotation of a speech made in 1852, or a passage of remarks made in 1866. I accept the challenge made by the noble lord, and take the very term he has fixed upon as a test of our conduct and policy. I will throw my vision back for these 15 years to 1852. When we were called to the responsibility of administration the question of Parliamentary reform was rife. In 1849, and 1850, and 1851 it occupied the attention of Parliament, and , in 1852, when wo were sitting in opposition. ThFref when we acceded to office in 1852, although th e question not one which men responsible for the c onduct ef t of was one affairs would have deemed it necessary to deal, yaitet upon which it was absolutely necessary Itvihitohea should have some definite conclusion. after we acceded to office Mr. Hume breouoohnt tfloirowsair,idritthine question. The Cabinet had to decide, wasp the organ to which they would meet the motion. ent on the subject, and express the opinions of the Gov I stated that it was their uuaini the neglect to give a duo nt3ir:us opinion that the great blot in the Act of 1832, name y, ought to bo proposed, share of representation to to IwBosrBkainLenlaistseNsv,as remedied. (Hear, bear.) in the Cabinet o f Lord Derby, of household suffrage. 11, that the borough franchise s h ou ld he based on the principle is true that the proposition was not adopted , but the reason that it was not ado p ted was because it was felt that such a settlement would . . not then receive the support of the coun try. It is now said that wo have brought forward a mea sure stronger than the ono wo opposed. But even if that be the case it is no a r g ument a g ainst the measure, if it be one adapted to the circumstances of the times. (Hoar, hear.) There had been for a considerable time a favourite policy of reducing the borough franchise to a curtain a mount, the consequence of which would have beenre h t , ia t a favoured portion of the work in g classes, w spoken of in tams of eulogy, would be a n d o m w it e ted to the PRICE-- 43. STAMPED sd. possession of a vote on the implied understanding that they were to form a sort of Preetorian guard to the inidlle class, and act as a barrier against other portions of the working classes obtaining the franchise. Bat that was a policy which we always opposed, and we hold that it would be better to admit all Oho working classes, relying on their (sympathy with the political institutions of the country, than to raise up a favoured class who would become the critics rather than the supporters of those institutions. Hear, hear.) Wo retained the convictions which we held in 1859, and if wo deviated from thorn it was only because we believed that it would be impossible to come to any solution without a compromise, and that there was no resting place untilyou came to household suffrage. Upon suc ceeding to office last year we found it was absolutely ne cessary to deal with this question ; and although reproaches have been cast upon us for a change of opinion, I confi dently appeal to the general tenour of our policy and to the speeches I have made, wherein I stated there was nothing to disqualify the Conservative party from dealing with the question. We considered the question only in reference to the fair requirements of the country, but being in office with a large majority against us, and that Minis ters of all colours of politics had failed to deal with it suc cessfully, and believing that another failure would be not only fatal to the Conservative party, and most dangerous to the country, and bolfeving that it was only by a frank communication of ideas that we could arrive at a settle ment, we took the house to counsel with us. (Laughter.) It was in harmony with this view that I placed the resolu tions upon the table ; and although you ridiculed them, your subsequent conduct has proved your sneers were mis placed, for it was by your frank and cordial co-operation the present result has been accomplished. (Cheers.) The noble lord the member for Stamford said that the ten con ditions imperiously dictated by the right hon. member for South Lancashire have been obsequiously accepted by us. Tho abandonment of the dual vote imperiously demanded by the right hon. gentleman was obviously given up. But the dual vote was given up a fortnight before the impori• ous dictation. (No, no.) Another "bristling security" referred to by the noble lord was the two years' residence ; but so far from giving that up obsequiously, wo divided the house, and were beaten by a large majority, several Conservatives having left the house, while others only voted for us under protest, so that, instead of the Govern ment leading the party, the party were in advance of the Government. (Laughter.) Another security was the county franchise. The Government adopted a £l5 rating franchise; an hon. gentleman opposite proposed £lO, and resolutions were forwarded to us by the country party to make a compromise. Then came another point, that of the com pounder. It is true that the right hon. gentleman oppo site objected to our plan, but his proposal was not the ar rangement which now exists in the bill, but a hard line of £5 rating, which would have entirely emasculated the bill. It is not necessary to go into the securities of the fancy franchises, for the moment the house adopted a lodger franchise all necessity for them ceased. (Hear, hear.) When 'remind the . house that there have been 26 consider able divisions, in eighteen of which the member for South Lancashire has voted against the Government—these may have been some of the successful, though hardly the im perious dictaticins of which we have heard so much to-night. (Cheers.) It cannot be said that those securities with which the measure bristled were given up at the bidding of the Opposition. (Cheers.) The noble lord says that by giving these ton points I have altered the whole condition of the bill. Is that true ? I maintain, on the contrary, that the bill is in harmony with the general policy we have always maintained. (Laughter and cheers.) You have had a thousand plans—£B, £7, all sorts of pounds - all this year you have come down to £5, and the question we had to consider was, whether we were to accept a line of £5 or adhere to the convictions of 1859 that there is no safe rest ing place but in a rating household franchise. (Cheers.) The question would then arise, is there greater danger from the numbers that would come in under household suffrage than the 300,000 or so at a£s rating ? We think the dan ger would be less, and that the feeling produced would be more national. Instead of a Praetorian guard set aside with peculiar privileges, you will have a greater chance of touch ing the popular heart and evoking the national sentiment. (Cheers.) As regards the question of distribution, I think the proposal a wise and proper one, and I believe will be satisfactory to the country. It has been modified to some extent on principles which I do not believe; but on the whole the policy is ono that I have, on the part of the Con servative party for nearly twenty years, impressed on this house. Though bitter words have been uttered too often, and especially to-night, there has been, on the whole, a greater absence of party feeling and management than has ever been exhibited in the conduct of a great measure. The right hon. gentleman is not a prophet, but he has indulged in the most direful vaticinations. He says that everything is ruined, and he begins with the House of Lords. It is not, he says, of the slightest use, and what will happen when this bill passes ? (Laughter.) My only opinion is, that if the House of Lords is in the position described at present, the passing of this bill would do it a groat deal of good. (Laughter, and cheers.) But what the right hon gentleman says is most terrible is the treachery. I want to know when did the treachery begin ? (Laughter.) Ho thinks the measure of Parliamentary reform is treachery in consequence of what took place last year. I am inno cent of any knowledge of those assemblages and councils of which he has spoken. If thew was a compact last year that no measure of Parliamentary reform was to pass—if the proposition of a measure of Parliamentary reform is an act of treason, then the noble lord the member for Stam ford and his friends are as guilty of treason as ourselves. (Cheors.) I should have supposed the right hon. gentle man would have weighed his words a little more, and that when he talked of treachery he would have had some hard and straight line to toll us where the treachery commenced. But the right hon. gentleman throws no light on the sub ject. He has made a speech which reminds me of an in spired schoolboy's theme. (Laughter.) He says the people of England must be educated, no matter what the quality of the education, if there is only quantity. (Laughter.) As he seems to be somewhat at a loss to know what may be his lot in the new Parliament, I should recommend him to be the "schoolmaster abroad." (Loud laughter, and cheers.) I should think, with his great powers of classical and historical illustration, ho would soon clear the minds of the new constituencies of all " perilous stuff," and render them as safely Conservative as he could de sire. (Laughter.) The victims of Cheroncea, died for their country, and dying, expressed their pride that their blood was shed in such a sacred cause ; but the right hon. gentlethan takes this opportunity absolutely of announcing the conditions on which he is ready to join the vanquishers who have brought him to such disgrace and suffering. (Laughter.) He has given us a programme of all the revolutionary measures he detests, but, in conse quence of our measure, is prepared to support. He has concluded his attack on us, accusing us of treachery, by in forming us he is going to act in favour of measures he has hitherto opposed in this house, though I believe he has supported them in another place, and that he will recur to those Australian politics which rendered him once so fa mous. (Laughter.) He told us that in the conduct we were pursuing there was infamy. The expression was strong. (Laughter.) But I never quarrel with these sort of things —(laughter)—and never disturb on that ground a ora. gentle man, especially when he is approaching his peroration. (Laughter.) According to the right. hon. gen tleman, tion conduct is infamous, because in office we aresupporting measuresand which we h parliamentary ave I :use to accept of the measures we are recommending the . we sting you to Ba nco did fooprpomsoefd.whicfh ddiissaaPpPprro°vve° a d n id d u s o an t c btailotnevteo-tnhiegmht,eaosuurrocownedauroct risoqouboaisetctinoolonassble_. sure that can be passed under the circumstances, ens• But what does the tion is, on the whole, the wisest encl say our conduct would b: in i k nf o 7 b - is -. own conduct, when, right hon. gentleman t . a l rY would would not reduce Derby in 1859, because they he was one of the most having assisted in turning out the Government of borough f r L ou o g r h d activef ra aeh i e— managerslhare Palmerston brings forward a bill of —be accepts office in the 1860, and Lord Pa the right hon. gentleman year con , which liamentarY re ` 'doh ho more than disapproved par eason. totri,ue utterly disapprovedked his political opponents to defeat it? of o a f.

I think that England is safe in the race of mon who inhabit her; that she is safe in something more pre cious than her accumulated wealth—in her accumulated exper ience ; that she is safe in her national character, in her fame, in the tradition of a thousand years, and in that glorious future which I believe awaits her. (Loud cheers.) The SPEA.KEIt put the question : " That the bill be read a third time," and there were only two "Noes," which were drowned in a chorus of "Ayes" and cries of "Agreed." Sir P. GOLDSMID asked a question, and the SrEAKEit replied, both being inaudible, and The bill was then read a third Limo and passed, amidst loud cheers from the Ministerial benches and some of the benches below the gangway on both sides. The Courts of Law Officers (Ireland) Bill as amended was considered. The report on supply was brought up andagreed to. On the motion of the ATTORNEY-GENERAL for Ireland, the order for going into committee on the Com mon Law Courts (Ireland) Bill was discharged. Some amendments on the Public Health (Scotland) Bill were agreed to pro forma, and the bill was recommitted. The Dogs Regulation (Ireland) Act (1865) Amendment Bill passed through committee. The District Lunatic Asylum Officers (Ireland) Bill was IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT HOUSE OF LORDS-.LAST EVENING. The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at five o'clock. THE MARCH TO HOUNSLOW. I aTho Earl of LONGFORD said, in answer to a question with regard to the supplying of rations and fodder to the troops at Hounslow when on their march to the Hyde-park Review, that it was customary for the troops to draw rations a day before at Aldershott, and it was con cluded that they would be s.) supplied when they reached Hounslow ; such, however, was not the case, and it was from the misconstruction of an individual officer, and that officer had been since removed from his office by tho Secretary of State for War. There had been no clash whatever between the Horse Guards and the War-office. _ . The Duke of CAMBRIDGE said that with regard to the arrangement for rations and fodder, the orders had been so clear that it seemed impossible that an officer in the position of a Deputy- Commissary-General could make a mistake. If a com missary officer could not find proper rations and forage for the troops at the proper hour when they ought to arrive, ho was unfit for his office. The invariable answer to all his inquiries was, that it was a perfectly exceptional case, and that whether they took their rations or not, they ought to be provided with them when they arrived. He would assure their lordships that the general commanding and the colonels of regi ments did all that they could to facilitate the carrying out the orders issued from the Horse Guards, ,and he would tell their lordships that the commissariat officer ought not to be attached to the War Office at all, but to the Horse Guards, as was the case at Ports mouth and elsewhere. Lord REDESDALE said that the !opinion of a General Officer (Lord Henry Percy) had been placed in his hands, which stated that ho considered the capabilities of the commissariat officer in question very excellent, as had been proved in the Crimean war. The subject then dropped. THE SUPPLY OF WATER IN THE METROPOLIS. Lozd DE MAULEY called the attention of their lord ships to tho expediency of the supplying of water to the metropolis from the superfluous water from the upper part of the Thames. He commented at some length upon the advantage that would accrue to the metropolis from such an utilisation, and went into statistical details to prove the theory. He stated that there could not be any hesitation in confirming the assertion that London, with its wealth, ought to bo the best supplied with water. The Duke of RICHMOND said that her Majesty's Go vernment had considered the question of such importance as to, in the beginning of the y3ar, appoint the Royal Commission. He hoped that in the autumn an unanimous report would be come to. Their lordships then adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS—LAsT EVENING. The SPEAKER took the chair at 4 o'clock. THE BALL AT THE INDIA OFFICE. Mr. FAWCETT gave notice that to-morrow ho should ask the Secretary of State for India whether it was true that the ball about to be given to the Sultan was to be paid for out of the revenues of India, and if so, to ask why the only State festivity to be given to a foreign potentate on THE HOUSEHOLD TROOPS. Mr. O'BEIRNE asked the Secretary of State for War whether any, and, if any, what compensation had been given or offered to those medical officers of the brigade of Guards whose prospects of promotion were interfered with by the warrant signed in 1860, but which warrant was not promulgated until 1866 ? SirJ. PAKINGT ON said he had received no applications for compensation, and he did not see there wore any grounds for such being paid. THE KNIGHTSBRIDGE BARRACKS. In reply to Mr. Low; Sir J. PAKINGTON said no stops would ba taken in the rebuilding of the barracks at Knightsbridge until after Parliament had assembled next session. THE HYDE PARK REVIEW. Mr. LUSK asked the First Comniissioner of Works whether the large wooden erection in Hyde Park had been taken down by his orders ; and if he would state the cost of that erection and its removal ; and further, if he would inform the house from what fund voted by Parliament the cost would be defrayed ? Lord J. MANNERS said the galleries had been re moved by his orders, in consequence of a communication from the War-office. The cost of such removal would amount to £2,180, which would bo defrayed out of the vote to bo taken for civil contingencies. THE SNIDER RIFLE. In roply to Major WALKER, Sir J. PAKINGTON said ho did not think it would be possible to supply the militia with the Snider rifle in time for training in the year 1868. THE REVIEW AT WIMBLEDON. In reply to Lord ELclio, The CHANCELLOR of. the EXCHEQUER said that, in consequence of the representati ns of the noble lord with respect to the review at Wimbledon, on which occa sion a visit was anticipztted by the Sultan, ho would consult his colleagues as to whether it was possible to give the volunteers in the Civil Service a holiday on Saturday next. THE NAVAL REVIEW. Colonel KNOX asked for information with respect to the distribution of tickets for the approaching naval re view. Us had applied for one, and had been told that his application had come too late. From what had come to his knowledge, he believed that 200 members of Parliament would go to the review, and the rest of the persons on board the Ripon would be unconnected with the house for whose entertainment the country would be called upon to pay. He thought the distribution of the tickets had b3en most unsatisfactory, and ho should like to know to whom they had been dis tributed. Mr. CORRY said notice was affixed to the doors of the house that no applications for tickets would be enter tained after the Bth of July. On that day only about 230 applications had been made, and as the number of tickets proposed in the first instance to be allotted to the members of the house was 450, it was then thought that ladies might be thought of, and accordinglya second ticket was delivered to those who applied. After the date he had mentioned a great interest attached to the re view, and demands for tickets became very numerous. It was afterwards determined to issue some additional tickets, and, in addition to the 50 to be accommodated on board the Ripon, .50 would be provided for on board the China. It was absolutely necessary to - fix a time, after which no applications for tickets would be received, in order that arrangements might be perfected with the railway. Mr. B. OSBORNE hoped that some arrangements would be made to prevent anything like that which occurred at Hounslow the other day. (Hear, hear.) Mr. CORRY said he would not be answerable for any accident to machinery. Mr. B. OSBORNE meant victuals, &c. (Laughter.) Mr. CURRY said luncheon would be provided on board the vessel, in addition to which there would be sherry, beer, and brandy. (Laughter.) PUBLIC; BUSINESS. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER did not propose that thore should be a morning sitting to morrow. On Wednesday the house would not assemble. On Thursday and Friday he proposed the house should sit at 12 until six, and then adjourn. On Monday next he proposed to move the second reading of the Scotch Reform Bill, and on Tuesday next he proposed a morning sitting, so that the Tornado case might be taken into consideration. Mr. GLADSTONE asked if.the right hon. gentleman would state which of the important measures on the paper would be first taken into consideration, as it was evident some must be deferred until next session. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he would state the names of the measures on Monday next. THE REPRESENTATION OF THE PEOPLE BILL. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved the third reading of this bill. Viscount CRANBORNE said ho did not, in the course he intended to pursue, wish to press his objections against the bill to a division, and he should, if there was a general wish that tha bill should proceed, deprecate as much as any one a division being taken on the third reading. He was anxious, as that would be the last opportunity that would present itself, to make a few observations on the bill to which he so much objected. He hack heard that the passing of the measure had been called a Conservative triumph, and he was anxious to see what the right hon. gentleman the member of South Lanca shire had had to do with the measure, because if he had had a great deal to do with it he did not see how it could be a Conservative triumph at all. (Hoar, hear.) His object in taking the course he was now adopting was to ascertain whether it was so at all, because it was necessary that the paternity of all the strange objects that come into the world should be well established. The right hon. gentleman, the member for South Lancashire, it appeared, had had something to do with the measure. (Hear, hear.) He had called for 10 important amendments to the original bill, amongst which was tho lodger fran chise, the abolition of the dual vote, the rejection of the savings' bank and educational franchise, the abolition of voting papers, the redistribution of seats enlarged, and all these and many others had been most unintentionally yielded. He had never known a Government, and did not think a Government of the sort ever existed before, that having introduced a very important measure so obligingly yielded every demand made to them, even to the extent of altering all the ♦ital principles of the bill. (Loud cheers.) The debates on the bill had not taken place in the house, but bad been carried on in the lobbies outside the house—(loud cheers)—and the amount of per suasion that had been carried on to ensure the success of the bill was such as never before had been known. Mr. LOWE once more presented himself to the house in the character of a prophet of evil, and predicted that the result of passing the bill would be to Americanise our in stitutions one by one, and plunge the country into one per petual whirl of change, innovation, and revolution. The authorship of the bill was, in short, a disgrace to be avoided, and not an honour to be sought. Mr. BRIGHT—I am not about to answer the speech we have just heard from the right hon. gentleman, nor should I have taken part in this discussion but for a habit from which he seems unable to free himself. It would appear that all the acuteness with which he is gifted, and the fairness by which ho is actuated on some questions, desert him when he comes to treat any opinion of mine. I under stood him to toll the house that the Conservative party had advanced to a point which I thought dangerous, and to which I had not gone. The right hon. gentleman might have known that for many years past I have supported the principle that the permanent foundation of the fran chise ought to be in the householder. In the bill which I proposed in 18;9, but which was not brought in because the Government of Lord Derby, having lately come into power, were going to bring in a measure of their own, it included household suffrago, and in the course of the dis cussion of this question this session I expressed the opinion that the Chancellor of the Excho per had taken my clause and put it into his own bill. On the same question, in 1859, I said, in deference to the opinion of some, that the lower class of householders wore so dependent, and some so ignorant, that they were not likely to be independent electors, and that it would be possible to draw a lino at the rental of £4 or £3 per annum; but that was quite consistent with all I bad said before. (Hear, hoar.) I have said all along that the permanent foundation should be iu the house. I do not, of course, regret that we should have adopted this for tho permanent foundation; but looking at the prevailing opinion of a powerful class who regarded such a proposal with fear, and the lamentable fact of the existence of a class to whom the extension of the franchise would bo no advantage to themselves or to the country, I should have been content with some proposition that foil short of household suffrage pure and simple. When we aro discussing questions of this nature with public audiences who have something to learn, ono must have some distinct and definite point to submit as the end in view ; but when you come to this house and have to consider the position of a Minister, it is %. ,i/e !~ e- 0/ f~ read a second time, as was the Justices of the Peace Dis qualification Removal Bill. The Turnpike Trusts Arrangements Bill was road a third Limo and passed. The lt‘ilway and Joint Stock Companies' Accounts Bill passed through committee. Ou the motion for going into committee on the Carriers' Act Amendment Bill some discussion arose, and the fur ther consideration of the bill was postponed. Tho Guarantee of Government Officers Bill was read a second time. _ _ Mr. HUNT, in committee of th., whole house, obtained a resolution for leavo to bring in a bill to alter certain du ties of customs in the Isle of Man, and the bill was read a first time. The other orders were disposed of, and the louse then adjourned. The National Rifle As3ociation. Yesterday was a trying day at Wimbledon. The wind blew with violence, and the rain descended copiously. The effect upon the shooting was, of course, remarkable. There were moments when it would have been simply idle to continue the different competitions. The driving rain upon the windows of the markers' butts must have prevented their seeing bullet marks upon the target, if the same cause had not previously gone far to obliterate the bulls'-eyes themselves. But whenever the rain ceased or even moderated, for however brief a space, there was always firing going on, and nothing was more remarkable than the cheerfulness and command of temper exhibited by all under the discouraging cir cumstances. Shooting in a strong wind requires not merely an increased amount of skill, but a large measure of audacity as well. Until actual experience has justified the step, it is not every one who feels assured that in pointing his rifle away from the target with a view of allowing his bullet to be blown on to its surface he is doing a prudent or even a safe thing ; but yesterday such was the force of the wind that marksmen were obliged to aim 15 and even 25 feet to windward of the target, according to the range they were shooting at. In storm as in sunshine members of the Council were at their posts. Lord D ucie made several bull's-eyes at the "Running Deer" range, where one of the Belgian visitors was shooting at the same time. Lord Grosvenor also, who had been prevented by indisposition from attending on any of the former days, spent some time in the large marquee, where most of the business of the meeting is transacted. Col. Clarke Kennedy, Capt. Page, Capt. Drake, R.E., and the officers of the Engineer Staff, were on the alert to repair damages caused by the storm, and so to prevent any hindrance of the shooting. The competition for the prizes offered exclusively to the Belgians by the National Rifle Association was to have commenced yesterday, and to have been continued this day and to-morrow. In consequence, however, of a communication received from the Belgian Committee, to-morrow (Wednesday) has been named as a day more convenient for the pur pose. The ranges set apart for the Belgians will be indicated by their own national flag. Among the prizes offered is the Association Challenge Cup, value £2OO. This will be held for the coming year by the regiment, .battalion, or corps to which the winner belongs, or if the winner is not a member of any regiment, battalion, or corps, then by the highest municipal authority of his own district. At the meeting of the Tir National of Belgium in 18G8 the Cup will be handed over to the Commission Directrice of the Tir, who will draw up the condi tions under which the future annual competitions are to be held in Belgium. For this cup, a massive specimen of the silversmith's art in this country, the trophy referred to in the speech of Col. Gregoire to the Prince of Wales on Saturday may be regarded as a compliment in return. The design and execu tion are both in excellent taste ; and no one who visits the Exhibition marquee should omit to notice how admirably bronze and marble are capable of being blended and turned to account in groups in tended for presentation as prizes—materials which we seem to have practically overlooked. Yesterday afternoon an accident occurred to Lieutenant-Colonel llalford while he was shooting with a breechloader at one of the short ranges. The cartridge he was loading, from some un explained cause, exploded on his closing the breech, and part of the machinery was blown away, in flicting a deep flesh wound on his right hand. Dr. Wyatt attended Colonel Ilalford at the Camp Hos pital, and we are happy to say there is no cause for apprehension or alarm. By this accident the Eng lish eight lose the services of one of their best shots. The results of such competition as were yesterday brought to a close were as follows : Belgian Challenge Cup, with £75 added by the National Rifle Association, for volley firing.

It is now becoming matter of certainty W that the review next Saturday at Wimbledon will be one of L the finest displays in the series of fetes that are ren dering this season exceptionally brilliant. Wimble don, it will be remembered, was fixed upon some weeks ago as the site of the Volunteer Review to be held in honour of the Sultan; and since then, the review in Hyde Park having been deferred, the Secretary of State for War, with a view of obviating any disappointment which might have been felt at the loss of the promised s p ectacle, has suggested that, if agreeable to the volunteers, the Household troops might take part in a combin field day with them at Wimbledon. An offer so tempting was once accepted, and it is now arranged that the house hold cavalry, the brigade of Guards, and some bat teries of Royal Artillery will be included in the for he ce to be reviewed on S aturda y next by H.R.H. t Duke of Cambridge, in presence of the Sultan, other the Prince d'Aosta , so n of the King of Italy, an t o the d ill u strious visitors. All that is now requisite perfect success of the occasion, weather apart, is that a really determined effort should be made by t h e Volunteers themselv es to attend in good num bers. There are few foreign capitals which possess such a Champ de Mars as Wimbledon-common, re gard being bad to the fact that its close proximity to Clapham Junction enables troops to be concen trated at the shortest notice from all points of the compass. The railways just now arc on their good behaviour, owing to the state of the money market and to their own past mismanagement. If they desire to give a timely proof of their value to the some othmo e fae m grat combine hdeevaamt advantage a tmetropolis, oet f pa o tor r olyi once ts gatheringh, e apnud t b o i afford ford facilities State, they have an excellent opportunity of doing d so. Let ul rl holding yh L o esot that conver sion n e thereig h showin ii tt the hh a nd ofa labyrinthh o of e district railways. at Battersea enable into the Ir a ol u nt network Vo lunteers to assemble in anything like the numbers which they have done in one or two memorable in stances already, the generous assistance and co operation of large employers of labour will be in dispensable. On an occasion, however, when we are, as a nation, discharging the duties of hospitality towards foreign guests, it will hardly be held that the appeal is unreasonable. To give as many men as possible a chance of coming down to Wimbledon in the ranks, the latest practicable hour, probably 5.30 p.m., will be fixed for the commencement of the review. The grounds and buildings of the University are to be improved, now professorships establi s hed, and this th genera l facilities for instructio n enlarged. To do $lOO,OOO are needed, and of this amount the citizens of Burlington have already subscribed $32,0 l 00. The exhibition of paintings and sculpture and other works of art, w ith which it is intended to celebrate exhibition galleries ill ready c o f n o t r r i c b o u Lo ra the completion of the now fine arts building of Yale Col lege, promises to be one of the most extensive and grati fying overseen in America.
