Mr. G. B. GREGORY gave notice of his intention to make reference to the appellate jurisdiction of the Court a Chancery. SECURITY OF LIFE IN IRELAND. Lord JOHN' MANNERS asked the First Lord of the Treasury if it was the intention of the Government to in troduce any measures for the better security of life, or for the better administration of the law in cases of trial fie murder in Ireland. Mr. GLADSTONE said he supposed the question had special reference to the trial of Barrett, in Dublin, and it was but fair to those who might be considered instru mental in the failure to observe that, in the opinion of the a lvisers of the Crown, special circumstances went far to account for that failure. With regard to the more gene rat scope of the question, he might refer to the intentions of the Government as declared in the Speech from the throne, and by which the Government still abided. He trusted in the course of a week or so to make a definite announcement whether the suggestion was practical or not. THE AUSTRALIAN SQUADRONS. Mr. TAYLOR asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether, in accordance with the suggestion of Lord Bell more in his despach of May 17, 1869, it was intended to strengthen the Australian squadron as the only way of checking the irregularities On the part of masters of ves sels engaged in the deportation of South Sea Islanders. Mr. CHILDERS said it had been decided to place an ad ditional ship on the station with a view to checking the irregular practices complained of. B.k.NKRUPTS. Mr. ROBERT FOWLER asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether his attention had been called to on Orderof the Lord Chancellor - excluding, irom bankruptcy jurisdiction all the county courts of Cornwall; whether this order was not opposed to the spirit of the Act of last session, the object of which was to localise the transaction of bankruptcy business ; whether he was aware that the order would be productive of great inconvenience to the trading community of Cornwall ; and whether her Majesty's Government were prepared to rescind the order and to restore the local bankruptcy jurisdiction granted by the act to the county of Cornwall. Mr. BRUCE said he had communicated with the Lord Chancellor, who had authorised him to say that the Bankruptcy Act gave him the power to do what he had done. STAMP FEES. Mr. BARNETT asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether a considerable number of stamp collectors were paid by a fee of two pence on every receipt they gave for Excise licences for horses, dogs, carriages, &c., and what necessity exists for persons taking out a number of licences to have a separate receipt for each one. ' The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said the parties were not strictly Government employs, being paid on poundage. But he would look into the matter, THE METRIC SYSTEM. Sir CHARLES ADDERLEY asked the Postmaster- General, whether the difference between the complicated English weights and measures and the simple metric system now being introduced all over Europe had not occasioned, in the French Postal Treaty, our being obliged to carry a third of an ounce weight as an equivalent for a ten gramme weight, which was one-sixth less ; and whether he was prepared to remedy this inequality by the use of corresponding weights, by which step he would be also setting an exam ple on the part of the Government of the adoption of the more general system. The Marquis of HARTINGTON did not think any practi cal inconvenience would result from the course adopted. EDUCATION IN SCOTLAND. Dr. LYON PLAYFAIR asked the Lord Advocate whether the Government intended to reintroduce during the pre sent session the bill which passed through the House last session, to extend and improve the parochial schools of Scotland, and to make further provision for the education of the people of Scotland ; and, if not, whether the Go vernment were prepared to introduce during the session any other measures dealing with the whole subject of ele mentary education in Scotland, and including the land ward districts as well as the towns. Mr. GLADSTONE said it was the desire of the Govern ment to make progress with education in Scotland as well as England, and from certain signs it appeared a very favourable opportunity for doing so, but with regard to the best means possible of doing so, he was afraid he could not give any very positive answer ; but in the course of a few weeks they would have made progress with the bill for England, and then the Government would state what was their intention with regard to Scotland. If they did not suc ceed in completing measures for Scotland it would not through the want of the desire to do so. ;I BANKRUPTCY IN IRELAND. Mr. KEOWN asked the Solicitor-General for Ireland if it was the intention of the Government to bring in a bill this session to assimilate the Bankruptcy Law in Ireland to that at present in force in England. Mr. C. FORTESCUE said he was not prepared to give a positive answer on the subject. The Irish Solicitor- General would be in his place to-morrow evening. THE BRIDGWATER INQUIRY. Mr. HEADLAM asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he would state the reason why, in the case of the Report of the Commissioners con cerning the borough of Bridgwater, the usual practice had been departed from of giving references to the evidence in the margin opposite to every important finding or allega tion ; and whether, if it was alleged that such omission SUS accidental, he would take care that the omission was rectified, Eo that persens implicated by the report, and any person desirous of testing the truth of the allegations, might be able to ascertain the evidence on which they are mftde. And whether he would also state what was the first report of the said commissioners, and why the salmi, had not been laid before the House. Mr. BRUCE said the question was one of convenience and expense. He would inquire and see whether the arrangement desired by the, right hon. gentleman could be observed for the future. With respect to the final report of the Commissioners, it would be laid before the House 33 sooa as possible. THE INDIA BUDGET. Sir S. NORTIICOTE asked the Under Secretary of State for India whether there was any probability of his making any statement with respect to the finances of India before Easter; and if not, whethei he would have any objection to lay upon the table the correspondence which heel taken THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER'S OPINIONS. Mr. SOMERSET DEAUMONT asked the First Lord of the Treasury, whether the statement made by the Chancellor of the Exchequer that he " was not in favour of treaties of Commerce, and that he was not in favour of their negotia tion," had the apprcval of her Majesty's Government. Mr. GLADSTONE said he felt some difficulty in answer ing the question, as it contained what he must call an ad verse proposition, but he might say he quite shared the opinion of his right hon. friend. (Hear, hear.) The sen timent however, must not be looked upon as a cast iron one, but used with flexibility. Having quoted the opinion of Mr. Cobden, which was in accordance with that of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the right hon. gen tleman said to-morrow he should lay on the table a copy of the treaty with Austria, for which his right hon. friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer .was as much responsible as any other member of the Cabinet. TIIE LICENSE LAWS. Mr. DOWNING asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he could name a day on which the bill to amend the pro; mt system of granting licenses for the sale of spirits and other intoxicating liquors will be introduced, and whether it was intended that the bill shall apply to Ireland ; if not, whether a separate bill applicable to that country would be introduced, and when ? Air. Br.ucE said he had hoped on Friday next he should have been enabled to ask the House for leave to introduce a bill dealing with the subject of licensing ; but he found there were still some unsettled points, and therefore he was compelled to defer his intention until Friday week. With respect to Ireland, he did not think it would be convenient to deal with the Irish law in an English bill. The Chief Secretary for Ireland had the s abject under his consideration, with a view of seeing how far the improvements to be made in the English law could be made applicable to Ireland. EDUCATION. Mr. LEA asked the Vice-President of the Committee of Council on Education if he purposed to adhere to the year of waiting stated in the Elementary Education Dill, if it could be shewn that the need of a school was urgent, and its erection by voluntary effort practically impossible. Mr. FORSTER said it was impossible to answer the question, which seemed to be an inquiry whethe: the Government would consent to a certain amendment in the Edncation EU He would prefer the House hearing the reasons of the Government for thcir proposi tion before he made any arrangements with respect to the amendment. BREVETS IN THE ARMY, Sir PATRICK O'BRIEN asked the Secretary of State for War whether it was his intention to recommend to her Majesty that in future brevets the subaltern officers of the army be included. Mr. CARDWELL said there was no intention of altering the rule. THE IMPRISONED BRITISH SAILOR Sir HARCOURT JOHNSTONE asked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if any answer had been given by the Spanish Government to the appeal made in June last by the Foreign Office on behalf of a British sailor imprisoned at Barcelona since June 1867. Mr. OTWAY said he had that day received a telegram from Mr. Layard stating that the sailorhad been released. EMPLOYMENT OF SOLDIERS. Mr. ILINBURY-TRACY asked the Secretary of State for War whether it was the intention of the Government to promulgate regulations for the employment of soldiers in the trades which were connected with the supply of their clothing and subsistence, the stores required for their use, and the repair and construction of their dwellings; and, if so, when they would be issued. Mr. CARDWELL said it was the intention of the Govern ment to form a corps of artizans in most of the regiments —a proceeding which would add to the pay of the soldier without entailing any additional cost on the country. THE POST OFFICE. The Marquis of HARTINGTON, in reply to an hon. MOin ber, said the doing away with a receipt stamp on the deli, very of telegrams was to effect convenience. If it was found to lead to any insecurity, they would at once see that other arrangements would soon be made. It was also the intention of the Post-office, when the accounts and statistics were in a more forward state, to publish fort nightly returns. ASH WEDNESDAY. Mr. GLADSTONE said to-morrow he should move that the House meet at 2 o'clock on Wednesday next. SALE OF ANCHORS. Mr. GOURLAY asked on what terms the anchors were re delivered to the Admiralty—whether the Admiralty had to submit to any sacrifice ? Mr. BAXTER entered into a long explanation of the trans action. He candidly admitted the error that had been committed, saying it was due solely to a slip of the pen on the part of Sir Spencer Robinson, the Controller of the Navy, who in the month of July last suggested to him that some of the old anchors should be sold. There were altogether 1,000 anchors in the various dockyards, and they covered several acres of ground. As they were totally unfit for service, the suggestion was made that they should be sold as old iron. He (Mr. Baxter) assented to the proposal, and Messrs. Shaw and Thompson, a respect able firm in the City, undertook to buy them. There were three different kinds of anchors in the dockyards— obsolete, unappropriated, and appropriated. Sir Spencer, in giving the order for delivery to Messrs. Shaw and Thompson, used the word " unappropriated " instead of " obsolete." It was in that way that the mistake occurred. Lord H. LENNOX viewed the explanation as eminently unsatisfactory. During the period he occupied the post now filled by the hon. gentleman who had just sat down, there certainly were not, as had been stated to be the case at the present moment, acres and acres of unservice able anchors. • THE LONDON FOREIGN CATTLE MARKET. Sir HENRY SELWIN-IBBETSON asked the Vice-President of the Committee of Council on Education, whether it was true that the contemplated site for the London Foreign Cattle Market was likely to be insufficient in the event of the cattle from several foreign countries being declared infected; and moved that should such be the case, it would be inexpedient that the sanction of the Privy Council, declared in writing, should be given to any such site, as the obj ect for which double tolls on the home supply at the Islington Market would have been charged, namely, the erection of a really efficient waterside market would not have been accomplished. Mr. FORSTE3 said he had no reason to believe that the market intended to be built would be insufficient. It would be twelve or fourteen acres in extent, and two ships would be able to unload at it at any time of the tide. TkiE NAVY ESTnIATt. Mr. CHILDERS then rose to move that 61,000 men and boys, including 14,000 Royal Marines, be employed in the naval service. In 1858-59, the right hon. gentleman remarked, £9,000,000, or, excluding the packet service, £8,360,000, was expended on the navy. In 1860-61, the sum was £11,576,000. In 1867-68 it was £11,343,000. The amount now asked was £9,250,000, which would provides thoroughly efficient force, unless some such event as a great war or the reconstruction of the navy intervened. The right hon. gentleman then proceeded to compare the be found that in the estimates that ha should have the honour of submitting to the Homo that the entire sum required forthepublic service wouldb& £1,700,000 lee than that of 07-8, and - £57,000 -lees than those of last year. (Hear, hear.) in laying those ieureq before the House it would Le found oa examinetiea of the caperalitine of the lasi tha:c `ears', that the greatest Of:Or:C=7 had been pursued daring the past year, and that not at the expense of the efficiency of the service. In the vote for the met it would La seen that the sum was £IOO,OOC less than that of the former estimate, but the number of men set down as requieite was . 2,000 less than last year. No. 2 vote, for clothing, also would be found to be nominally 233,000 leas, but in reality it was 178,000, and the reason for that was that they had a large stock of clothing in store, and, therefore, it 11 - 2.3 unnecessary to continue adding to stock. In vote 6 there was also a con. gibe-able' reduction, and in the sum taken foe naval stone there was a diminution compared with that voted last year. In the vote foe building it would be found there was an increase in the sums set apart for Chatham, Portsmouth, and Haulboline, because it would be most unwise to restrict the works that were at present going on in those important places. In the sum to be Jted for retired pay there was an increase of £189,000, £85,000 of which was due to the new plan coming into operatiomi The hon. gentleman then proceeded to explain the progress of admininistration of the affairs of the royal navy, and said that in all that they had dons during the present they had been guided and governed by the opinions they , had expressed either in or out of offic e . It was w ith th o greatest regret they had been called upon to dis 4 . charge either officers or men, and they did so solely a-i a duty. (Hear, hear.) Nothing had been done at variance with what they had over and over again stated, and in reducing the establishments during the present year they were acting in conformity with previously expressed opinions. All the retirements of officers had been voluntary. (Hear, hear.) And where it had been found necessary to reduce the men, it had been endeavoured to to do so as gradually as possible, so as to create as little inconvenience as could be. It had unfortunately happened that in carrying out that necessary, but painful duty certain formalities had been overlooked, as in the case mentioned the other evening by the hon. member fot Devonport, but he was sorry on public grounds that such a circumstance should have occurred, and he hoped her would believe him when he assured him that in. everything that was done it was sought to the very utmost to have due regard to the feelings and the actual convenience of those who felt the blow. (Hear, hear.) They regretted much to have NO discharge men who had conducted themselves so well and ma long ; and, in carrying out the painful duty, they hal selected those who had been the shortest time in thiA public service, and in doing so they had been:: guided solely by the rule laid down in the last year. Nothing could be more painful than the carrying out of that, which was a necessary policy ; it was a subject of grief and pain, and in all that had been done, and in every thing and towards every person, they had endeavoured to a - et fairly and with a due regard to the duty they owed to Parliament. Reverting to the accounts, there would, he said, be a saving of £32,000 under the head of per manent salaried officers. The right hon. gentle man compared the strength of our navy with that of France, Russia, the United States, and Turkey. We had two broadsides of the first-class, six of the s cend-class, nine of the third-class, eight of the fourth class, four of the fifth class, and 2 of the sixth class—in all 31. Then .there were 2 turret ships of the first class, 5 of the second class, and 2 of the third class; besides which there were 5 smaller broadsides, and 2 turret ships. The French had 33 seagoing and 2 turret ships, 11 floating batteries, and 5 small-armoured. The policy of shipbuilding for the navy would be to the utmost to discourage the repair of old fashioned ships and of local -manufactures in dockyards. (Hear, hear.) The determination had been come to to build between 19,000 and 20,000 tons of shipping every year, 12,000 being Rumoured, and 7,500 unarmoured; 4,000 by coro - rect, and the remainder in our dockyards. The right hon. gentleman went at great length into each minutiae of his reforms, and concluded a lengthened and elaborate statement amid considerable cheering. Mr. Comer pefende.d his 'policy while at the head of the Admiralty under the late Government, and expressed his opinion that Mr. Childers had acted more on hustings pledges of wild reduction than on true ideas of economy, which were always associated with efficiency. Mr. SAMUDA and others of the . sLiebuihling 'alter st criticised the details. The vote was agreed to ; and some others Lav'ng beta taken, the House resumed. Ti o report on the Wat-offiee (Sabiries) Bill was b tug - %f.; up and agreed to. Several other measures were advanced a stago, and louse adjourned. LIST -FOR THE USE (1F VISITORS TO 271 E METROPOLIS.
