The LORDS COMMISSIONERS of the ADMIRALTY hereby give notice t hat the arrangements for the ADMIS SION of PERSONS, not already in the Government ser vice, to the Royal School of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering, as Admiralty Pupils, will, for the present year, be as follows : Candidates must not bo less than 18 nor more than 21 years of age, and must have served at least two years in private shipbuilding or engineering establishments, or must give satisfactory proof that they have in some way been so connected with shipbuilding or engineering opera tions as to become well-grounded in the elementary prin ciples and practices thereof. The pupils will be selected by competitive examination, the subjects for which, and numbers of marks assigned for each, aro as follows : Marks. Pure Mathematics, including—Arithmetic, mensu ration, geometry (plane and descriptive), plane trigonometry, and the elements of the differential and integral calculus 2,500 Applied Mathematics, including mechanics and hydrostatics Practical Shipbuilding, including laying-off (for shipwright's candidates only) 2,500 Practical Marine Engineering (for engineer candi dates only) French 5OO Elements of Physics and Chymistry 750 English Grammar and Composition Geography and History - 750 No candidate will be admitted who does not obtain at least two-thirds of the full number of marks in the two first-named subjects, and three-fifths of the full number, either for practical shipbuilding or marine engineering. The last four subjects, although counting in the com petition, will not be considered obligatory. The candidates who may be selected will be treated while attached to the school, in all respects as the Admi ralty pupils; they will receive wages the same as dock yard apprentices, commencing at ls. 6d. per day for six days per week for the first year, and increasing yearly 3d. per day till it reaches 2s. per day; and in addition a sub sistence allowance of 3s. per day for seven days per week while away from their homes, either at the school or inthe Dockyards. Six months of each year, viz., from November till May, will be devoted to study . at the School, and the remaining six months to active work and the acquirement of practical knowledge in the dockyards. It is to ho understood that the Admiralty make no en gagement to employ these pupils after the completion of their course of study ; and they must rely on their own worth as educated naval architects for obtaining employ ment in their subsequent career. The number of such pupils to be selected this year is one shipwright and one engineer. Persons desirous of competing must forward their names, with a certificate of birth, and of the grounds on which they consider themselves practically qualified, enclosing proper certificates to that effect, to the Secretary of the Admiralty not later than the Ist of September. The candidates should also state whether they wish to bo examined as engineers or shipwrights. The examination will take place on the 23d. September and three following days.

HAMILL.—To BE ROWED AT NEWBURG, ON TILE HUDSON SEPTEMBER G.—The match between these men is finally made. Hamill, accompanied by Dennis Leary, the Biglin brothers, and other boating men, came to our office on Monday last and drew up she articles of. agreement, which were signed by Dennis Leary on behalf of Hamill, and by Mr. Charles B. Elliott on behalf of the Portlander. We give them in another column. Every thing was satisfactorily settled. The race will be one which will b 3 memorable in acquatic annals, and a vast throng will be piesent to hail the victor in the great con test for the sculling championship of America. Both men aro actively engaged in training, and will do their utmost to justify the ecntidence of their respective friends. Next week we will give further detailsof the progress of the match. The brief time between the making of the match ard the day of its occurrence will hardly put Brown in his finest form, but he has strong hopes of victory. Hamill looks literally the " Little Engine," and his magnificent pro portions would be a study for an anatomist. Hamill's mentor is the renowned Dennis Leary, cue of the craftiest of the river gilds, and the trainer of the Freshman crew of Yale, who saved their college fron; a Waterloo defeat at the late 'Worcester regatta. Charles B. Elliott, the famous boat-builder who constructed the shell in which the Harvard University crew so thoroughly laid out the "Yale University," engineered the match for Brown.— Wilkes' Spirit of the Times. CIUCKE7I -- _ JOCKEYS AND RACING OPPICIALS v. SPORTING PRESS. On Saturday a match which created considerable inte rest in sporting circles, and which, with proper manage ment another year, promises to become one of the most attractive of the season, was played at the Surrey County Ground, Kennington. It was the rcturn to a match played a few weeks back at the Dripping Pan at Lewes, in which the Sporting Press Representatives got a sound castiga tion. But on this occasion, having claimed to play Bush, who, although a professional, is also a sporting writer, and otherwise amended their team, they were amply avenged. The jockeys were unable to muster their strength, owing to the absence of Custanco and Hiblerd, who were pro fessionally engaged at Baden-Baden. Upwards of 1,000 persons paid for admission at the gate, and the largest party of tLe season sat down to partake of Mr. Hill's excel lent dinner in the pavilion. George Fordham was the " observed of all observers," crowds of anxious admirers flocking round him to get a good look at him. He got out: unfortunately, in the first innings ; but during the second, when he booked 34 (not out), the shouting and huzzaingof the spectators was intense. As will be seen by the score, Bush proved himself a " triton among the minnows," going in second wicket down, and carrying out his bat for 78. Allcock also played well for his 48. In their first hands the Press put together 167, 27 of which wore extras, and the Jockeys were all-got rid of for GO. They therefore fol lowed on, and had obtained 5t runs for two wickets when time was called, thus leaving the Press victorious by 107 runs on the first innings. The following is the score : PRESS.

GO Total CROSSING 7IIE A 7 LAN 7 IC IN A , SMALL Tho Mary Blake, from Antigua, has arrived in the river with a seaman named Andrew Armstrong on board, the only survivor of a crew of four of a schooner-rigged boat called the John T. Ford, which was lost while on a voyage from Baltimore to Paris via Havre. The John T. Ford was about 21 tons, and of less size than the Bed, White, and Blue, but unlike her she was not constructed on the lifeboat principle, being more of a whaleboat. Her dimensions were 19ft. length of keel, 22ft. Gin, over all, 7ft. beam, 2ft. 6in. depth of hold. She was the joint property of the master, Gould ; Armstrong, the survivor, and two or three others, and the citizens of Baltimore took great interest in the success of the expedition to Paris. The John T. Ford left Baltimore on the 22d of June, but getting short of water, one of her tanks being damaged, she put into Halifax on the Bth of July, and, one of her hands leaving, Arm strong, who is a fisherman, joined her, widen the morning of the 16th of July she left Halifax, accompanied by several boats, which escorted her out to sea. Meet ing with strong contrary winds she had to put back, and anchored at Devil's Island until 1 p.m., of the 19th, when she had to shift to get better shelter in the eastern passage of Halifax. She remained there until the fol lowing Tuesday, the 22d, and at 4 a.m. proceeded on the voyage, with the wind at S.W. On the 26th they sighted a French schooner at anchor on the banks of Newfoundland, and went alongside about 7 p.m., and left at 4 a.m. on the next day. They then experienced very heavy weather, the wind being from the N. The boat laboured and shipped so much water that the crew were unable to keep their clothes dry, or have any rest. Indeed there was only room for two below, and that in rather a cramped position, so that two of the hands were always on deck. On the 28th July they spoke a ship belonging to Yarmouth, the Nova Scotia. The wind was then strong al S.W., with a heavy sea running. On the 29th, the boat being under a foresail, shipped a heavy sea, and capsized. She righted in about a minute, but the water damaged the bread and wetted the stores and clothes. Armstrong states that their condition was then getting very miserable. On the 2d of August, weather moderate and wind N., at 1 p.m. spoke a bark be longing to Shields, from Montreal for Cork, and asked for a little bread. They could not supply any, but gave them a bottle of rum and some tobacco. On the sth, at 4 p.m., the wind was strong, at S.W., and there was a heavy sea, which struck the boat, and she turned over again. She righted almost immediately, but unfortunately they lost all their stock of oil and the principal part of their supply of water, which added much to their distress, suffering as they were severely from cramp and pains in their legs. 0 n the Bth they spoke a ship belonging lo Liverpool, bound to Quebec, and obtained a supply of bread and a little oil and tobacco. Shortly afterwards they exhausted their small stock of oil, and had no light for the compass or the means to warm any food. They then cut up the boards that secured the ballast and all the internal fittings of the boat to burn and procure a light. On the 17th of August they spoke a bark bound to Portsmouth from Quebec, and she furnished them with a little bread and a few candles. Then they encountered very heavy weather, wind from S.W. to E.N.E., with a cross sea. On Monday, the 19th, wind S.S.W., they bore up for Cork, Cape Clear, by their reckon ing, being N.E., about 30 miles distant. At 10 p.m. a heavy sea struck the boat nod turned her over, and the ballast boards having been burnt in order to obtain a light, the ballast shifted, and all on board were thrown into the sea. The boat kept turning right over as the four hands struggled to get on her until the lad Murphy got entangled between the rigging and the mast, when she was so steadied that the other three of the crow managed to keep a hold of her. The craft continued in this position, two of the hands were on her mast and two on the side of the keel. They remained in this position the whole of that night, frequently being washed off and on by the heavy seas, and at 11 30 a.m. on the following day they observed a brig bearing down to wards them. Armstrong states that they were all cheered with the hopes of speedy relief, but instead of rendering them aid she came close to them, hoisted Dutch colours, and stood away without offering them the least assistance. About an hour after this, the mate, John Shanny, asked Armstrong to pray for him. They all prayed together for some time, but wore often interrupted by the heavy seas washing one or the ether of them off the bottom of the boat. The ears of the mate were noticed to swell very much and his eyes protruded; he shook hands with his companions and kissed his wife's likeness which he had about him. Ho then. became greatly ex cited, and bit the captain's thigh. The captain pushed him gently on one side saying, " For God's sake, John, don't bite me." The mate then fell back off the boat into the water and sunk immediately. About 7 p.m. the lad, Edward Murphy, asked Armstrong to make him in some way fast, and he was secured by his belt. He was not in that position long before a sea swept him away, and he perished, and afterwards the captain and the survivor, Arm strong, were washed off. The captain cried out " God help my poor wife and family," and then disappeared. After great exertion Armstrong succeeded in regaining the boat, bqt he was often swept off by the seas which dashed over the craft, the succeeding wave frequently washing him on again. Ho continued clinging to the bottom of the boat until 4 a.m. of the 23i1, when the ship Aerolite, Captain Alleyne, of Liverpool, hove in sight, and seeing the piece of ragged canvas on the end of an oar whit ) he held up, bore down to his aid and picked hint. up. "When taken on board he was very much exhausten and alr Lost insensible front the want of fool and exposure. Ho was also much injured about the legs and other parts of his body through being dashed so often against the ba t. As may be imagined his sufferings were most sevt tv , during the long period he was drifted about on the bottot t of the craft. lie suffered much from imbibing salt water. He kept chew ing a piece of an oil tobacco pouch, wY ich, ho says, at times brought some moisture to his pat-et od throat. He was fallen in with in lat. 41 5 N., long. 6 W. On board the Aerolite he was treated with every kindikess, but for which 11, , believes he must have died. 0.1 ilk) following day, the 21th, he was transferred to the schooner Mary Blake, Captain Brown, of Brixhant,.from Antigua, on board which ho was also treated with every attention. On being landed in the West India Dock the American Consul pro vided the necessary accommodation for him at the Sailors' Home in Well-street, and in a few days ho will bo for warded to his native place in America. HIE INDIAN FURLOUGH GRIEVANCE. (From the Spectator.) It has always been the custom in India, as in Eng land, to allow officials an annual holyday of a month That is not much, people will admit, even when one does not work 13 hours a day—lndians, if they work at all, work like slaves—under a ther mometer of 80 deg., but it was as much as the Government could give, with due respect to the interests of the public service. To make it a little more, the India-house, which, when its prejudices are not in the way, is a kindly employer, allowed the official at his own discretion to accumulate his bolydays for three years, and, such accumulation being convenient to the State, which would else have to be perpetually finding substitutes, added a fourth month to enable the official to rejoin. This holiday, always very dear to the services, became about 1856 almost invaluable to one particular section of them, the experienced men who are getting near the top. Such men in India are :usually about 44 years old, are receiving salaries ranging from £2,000 to £3,500 a year, and have children at home just growing into marriageable girls and collegians. To see them for a few days, once in four years, to keep up in their minds the recollection of the father's face, to be sure that they are happy, to bring to their minds the sense that they have homes, although so far away, is to most fathers a matter of somewhat keen in terest. The Indians have other ties, too, odd as it seems to the India-house, fathers and mothers get ting on in life—a son of 42 presumes a father of 70—relatives of all sorts and ages, whose lives are made the happier by seeing the Indian son, or nephew, or brother for a few days in every four years. Naturally, therefore, as it mattered nothing to the State, and cost no money—the pay of that rank being equal even to the demands of the Peninsular and Oriental Company—the higher officers got into a habit of running home for six weeks, just to kiss the children, and see the old mother, and settle any morsel of family business that might happen to be afloat. 'Will it be believed that the India-house ' summarily forbade the practice ? They did not abolish the leave, which would have been intelligi ble, though harsh, but they forbade officers, as if from wanton cruelty, to use it where they pleased. They might go to the hills, to play chicken hazard and seduce their neighbours' wives, or to Cashmere, or to Ceylon, or to China, or even to Egypt, but they must not on any pretence revive family asso ciations or reinvigorate their constitutions by a run to Southampton. It unsettled them, said the 15 little Moguls, made them discontented with India, and kept up a yearning for London life and Eng lish country pleasures which was most injurious. The officials, on the other hand, argued that the e% 11, if evil there was, lay in the new hanker for Engla:id, and the mental unrest it produced, and .4.4 the way of reliieving ,re,lented the, order As at once an it)jury and an insult. Thel fifW.Lu i -however, could not be moved, and two years ago they went a long step further in the same direction. Indians being also Englishmen, have sometimes business at home, money to inherit, fathers to bury, claims to ascertain, and it has been for half a century a custom to recognize that fact. If a man once in six years would write to the Viceroy informing him confidentially why he wanted to run home, and would, to show his sin cerity, sacrifice his whole pay and allowances, he might go home for six months without loss of his appointment. This, however, as steam improved, became popular, too, despite the great sacrifices in volved, and the India-house, true to its policy of making India as far as it can a separate planet, abolished this also. The same Papal spirit, the same hatred of modern life and civilization, runs through the whole of the leave rules. They are not in themselves illiberal ; Indian officers can if they like stay only too long away from duty, provided only they will stay in places where their resi dence is injurious to them, or will come to England at intervals solong that on their return India seems once more a foreign and a detestable land. They may have 20 months' sick leave, and 25 months' privilege leave, and a three years' furlough at home, and no end of " lira leave," may in all avoid duty for at least a fourth of their 25 years' service, but they may not come home for short visits at decent intervals, may not, in fact, regard themselves as what they are—English officials serving her Ma jesty abroad. They are to be Indians, not English men, and as Indians the less they sec of Europe the better for their contentment. We need not point out how utterly inconsistent a spirit of this kind is with the facts of actual life. It would be harsh even if Indians could bring up their children in India, for it would still thwart a natural and justifiable love of home for no adequate reason ; but as all children are and must be sent home, it is felt, as one great Indian officer writes to us, as " one of those cruelties of stupidity which irritate more than cruelties with a meaning." It is the main cause of that fierce discontent which has invaded Indian society, which is demoralising the services, and which produces one immense political evil—a habit of receiving English orders not as final awards, as they used to be received, but as orders from enemies intended to insult and annoy, which honourable men must fight, if needful, by appeals for democratic support. This spirit, which is day by day deepening, has for result one consequence which the India-house does not like, a constant and most injurious criticism in Parliament—which really does not know and cannot know whether orders, say, about promotion, are fair or not—and another which English statesmen cannot approve. The local Governments become the advocates of the services against the supreme authority, publish their orders under a sort of protest signifying, " It is not our fault, gentlemen, it is all those rascals at home," and throw on the India-house the whole odium of every unpopular restriction. The discontent rises almost into a monomania, till willing obedience to England is a thing unknown, and the hierarchy of authority is kept up, so to speak, by a sort of physical force. It is all so utterly unnecessary. The Indians are asking nothing except that steam and its consequences shall be recognised, that the close relation with England which the India-house cannot abolish if it would shall be regarded as a good instead of as an evil. They are not asking for " gold spoons and turtle soup," but for liberty to eat their own porridge out of their own Britannia metal at the hours which best suit their individual digestions. So far from being immoderate, the Indians will be content with less than their own privileges, if only they may en joy them in their own way. They do not ask a c revival of the old wild rules of charter leave, which enabled an officer to live half his term in New Zea land or the Mauritius On full Indian allowances, or, in fact, anything but most moderate intervals of relaxation at home. They will give up, we believe, the furloughs, which are really injurious to the ser vice, and make any concession about sick leave, that most unmanageable of leave difficulties, if only the Government will let them hate the holyday they are entitled to now without restrictions—will grant, that is, one year in every five, without loss of office, in full commutation of all other external leaves whatever, sick !cave, of course, being taken when needed, but counting against the quinquen nial holy days. The way this would work is easily described. John Smith, magistrate of five years' standing, would not come home—first, because he has not the money ; secondly, because his first baby is only just coming ; and thirdly, because he wants to keep a rest rye of one year against sickness or sudden necmity. Ile would come the second live, as he dors now, but only for one year, instead of three, and go out again with his Indian habits un broken for a spell of four years, made cheerful by the certainty of return. Thenceforward he would be able to keep up a genuine relation to home, to parents, and to his children, and yet never be long enough away to get out of his Indian harness, to lose his Indian friends, or to break his habit of Indian work. lie would be a well-paid officer . in the tropics, but without the sense of exile—would, in fact, be a happy and contented man, instead of a most unhappy alai dis contented one. The State would not lose a day of his work, nor a rupee of pay, and would gain by the whole difference between willing and unwilling service—between an obedience rendered with a hearty wish that orders may succeed, and obedience rendered with a languid hope that the results may prove disastrous enough to rid India of the Council to which every misfortune, exaction, or failure is now in India traced. If Sir Stafford Northcote cares to make an Indian reputation, this is his op portunity, or rather this would be, if the Indian Minister of the Crown were not on all such matters rather less influential than one of his own clerks. The clerk might quietly recommend, but, the ques tion having a pecuniary side, the unhappy Minister can only petition 15 old men, delighted with every chance of proving that his only right is to shield them from the smallest responsibility. Naval and Military Intelligence. At an early hour on Saturday morning the large caisson at the entrance to the fourth fitting and re pairing dock at Chatham dockyard suddenly gave way, without any previous warning, during a more than usually high tide, and the results were exceed ingly disastrous. At 2 o'clock a.m. the tide-gauge had registered a rise of 18ft. Gin., a higher tide than bad occurred for several weeks previously, and this circumstance might probably have been the cause of the sudden giving way of the caisson. At a few minutes after 2 the police-constable on duty, who had just passed over the caisson, heard it give way, followed by a tremendous roar of water, which rushed into the large dock with the noise of a peal of thunder. At the time of the occurrence the dock was occupied by the double screw steamer Beacon, launched a few weeks previously, which was being fitted for sea. The first wave lifted the Beacon completely off the blocks, as if she had been a boat, carrying her to the head of the dock, and lifted her stern entirely out of the water. The receding waves carried her back again, and threw her on her beam ends against the side of the dock wall. The acci dent occurred at an hour when the only workmen in the yard were those employed in the metal-mills, who rushed nut of the workshops under the belief that a considerable portion of the dock had been carried away. The noise of the water bursting into the dock at the same time aroused the officials re siding in the yard. The night being very dark, Mr. Superintendent Strength, who was promptly on the spot with all the available police force at his com mand, immediately had fires of tar barrels and other combustible materials lighted along the sides of the dock to assist the workmen, while messengers were !dezpatchecl from th.aprd for. the officials residing scut of the establiAmat and all the workmen who !.lould be obtained. SVals were also made for the seamen belonging`' the ships of the reserve and those of the various ships in harbour, several hundred of whom were soon on the spot to render assistance. As promptly as possible the Beacon was secured, and on the tide receding she was got safely on the blocks and shored up, when an examination of the vessel showed that she bad been seriously in jured. During the whole of Saturday morning a largo body of labourers were employed in pumping the water out of the ship, the services of the large steam fire-engine being likewise brought into re quisition for the same purpose. With the assistance of the steamers Adder and Sheerness, the &aeon in the course of Saturday was removed to Sheerness and placed in one of the vacant docks at that yard. The cause of the sudden bursting of the caisson ap pears to be altogether inexplicable, as although it was an old one—having been in use upwards of 40 years—it was believed to be in all respects sound. The Admiralty would not, however, appear to place any great reliance on wooden caissons, as wherever practicable they are substituting iron ones at all the dockyards. It is fortunate the accident occurred at night, for had the caisson given way during the day the loss of life would have been very great, there being about 100 hands employed on the Beacon in dock on Friday afternoon. The contractor, Mr. Gabrielli, for constructing the first of the three large steam basins at Chatham dockyard having carried the excavations to the re quired depth, the first brick of the flooring of the basin was laid on Friday last, in readiness for the formal laying of the foundation-stone, which cere mony it is expected will be undertaken by Mr. Corry, First Lord of the Admiralty, ou the occasion of the approaching visit of the Board of Admiralty to Chatham. Special instructions were received a few days ago from the War Department by Col. Kennedy, C. 8., commanding the Military Train at Woolwich, ap pointing him to proceed to Egypt to superintend the purchase of mules for the transport service of the Abyssinian expedition. Major Shervinton, brigade-major of the corps at Woolwich, was likewise ordered to take his departure on the same mission, for Alexandria at the earliest possible date, and to be accompanied by some of his most experienced brother officers. These were selected by the Brigade Major, from their known judgment and experience, and were Capt. Morrison, Capt. Miller, and Lieuts. Walsh and Devine, some of whom were to proceed to Spain and the coast of the Mediterranean . As this is con sidered the most responsible po rtion of the duties of the Military Train service, t he y were to receive an augmentation of /3 3s. per day. On Saturday these instructions were sudden l y countermanded, and the War Department, no doubt regretting o t fCol. K tehneniredgyenaet rosity, ordered the attendants the War-office, when he was informed that in all matters respecting expenditure they were desirous o f us i n g the most rigid economy, and . should have to reduce the extra pay already agreed upon to less than one-half —namely, £1 10s. The second battalion of the 22d Regiment, Lieut.- Col. Anderson, from the Mauritius, arrived at Liverpool on board the transport steamer Orontes on Friday. They touched Queenstown after being 47 days at sea. On Saturday morning they landed and marched to the railway station, en route for Newcastle-on-Tyne and Stockton. The battalion numbered 800. Two detachments of the sth Dragoon Guards have arrived at the camp at Colchester from Liver pool. The headquarters of the regiment are ex pected at Colchester on Monday. The following appointments were made on Satur day at the Admiralty :—Lieut. Herbert C. A. Brand, to the Irresistible, for service in tender; Lieut. T. E. Sullivan and G. S. Brown, to the Fis gard, additional, as transport officers ; and Sub- Lieut. T. S. Brand, to the Charybdis.

Referring to the question of Reform, the hon. mem ber said that it was in the year 1859 it was first brought more prominently before the public mind, and at that time he sketched out a bill—a crude one it might have been—which he thought would have met the requirements of the times, and could have been carried by both the Tories and Whigs. How ever, a bill was then introduced by Lord Derby, and he (Mr. Dillwyn) then did his best to throw out that bill, not, however, because it was brought in by the Tories, but because that bill would not give effect to those principles which he had always advo cated, and because he did not believe it could have been made a good bill even in committee. Many sound politicians, however, were now of opinion that it was unwise to have thrown out that bill, be lieving it would have settled the question, and that the subsequent agitation would have been pre vented. That, however, was not his opinion in reference to that bill. Last year, however, another Reform Bill had been brought forward, and that with all the strength of a Liberal Government. He had never approved that bill, and that because it had the same vice as some of its predecessors—it excluded " class" so arbitrarily that he saw at once a very strong agitation would spring up throughout the country. his opinion was that household suf frage and a very liberal lodger franchise should be the basis of any Reform Bill that had been offered that year by the Tories, although they at first offered a very different bill from what they afterwards ac ceded to. A great meeting of Liberals then took place at Mr. Gladstone's house, and they were then told that the Tories were the proper parties to pass the bill. They had the reins of the coach in band, and let them drive through ; and it was also said that with the assistance of the Liberals they ought to get a good bill out of what was offered them. He (Mr. Dillwyn) quite agreed with that line of policy, and he returned to the house determined to do what had been agreed upon. But in the middle of the Session the leaders of the Liberal party, for reasons best known to themselves, altered their line of policy, and they were then told that the Tories were to be turned out of office. He and some other Liberals did not see things in that light—they thought the Liberal party was making a great mistake—that their policy savoured too much of the old Whig game of bringing up an important question to a certain point, and when there was a fair chance of getting the measure passed, of shelving it and passing it over to the country for another year. He firmly believed that would have been the ease with the present question of Re form if he and some few other Liberal members had not acted as they had. Then occurred the cele brated " tea-room" scene. He attended that party in the tea-zmn, and proud was he of having done so. (HIV) That small party saw what way to be done. They at once said, " This question of Reform must not be played with any longer—we will not have this, old Whig game of throwing back a bill just as it comes to a point." They believed the bill could be so amended as to meet the require ments of the country, and _they determined to try what they could do with it and not to throw out the bill simply because the Tories had brought it in. He firmly believed now that had it not been for the " tea-room party" the bill would have been thrown out. If such had been the case the Liberals could not have pasted such a bill as they now had, had they been united as one man, and that because it would not have passed the House of Lords. They might, perhaps, have done so after years of agita tion—of setting class against class—engendering ill-feeling and leaving many most important ques tions in abeyance. Such being the case, he and those members who acted together on that occasion felt they could not—they dare not—throw back the bill which had been offered them, and it was in con sequence of the determined action which they then took that the Reform Bill would soon become the law of the land. Then, again, he had been a good deal blamed with respect to a certain memorandum which had passed between Colonel Taylor and him self. He could not see how he could be blamed for that. Had he not acted as he did, he would have been a fool.. It should be remembered he was going against the people with whom he usually voted, and therefore he felt there was a great re sponsibility resting upon him. He happened to be the mouth-piece of that small tea-room party, and he therefore wanted to know, before he gave his support to the Tory Government, whether they would consider fairly those points which he and the party considered to be essential to make the bill a good one. He determined to ascertain this from Colonel Taylor, and what was more, he wanted it in black and white. He did receive from Col. Taylor, in black and white, a distinct and satisfactory assurance that certain leading mem bers of the Government (whom, howeve r, he would not name) were iu favour of the amendments which they thought necessary to mould the bill into a good one. He had shown that memorandum to several Liberalbeeu c p e a n r s t u y r . e d N f o o body more deep l y res p ected Mr. Gladstone, or mor e members of the hoursrey,inaoudthehme ebaesluireev.edmitr.hDadilla good deal to do in carrying the not r w n fo t i l i ) o en ivi r n e g fe t r h re e d le t a o de h r is of b appreciated him as a finaucer, than he (Mr Dillwyn) and yet he could hardly regard Mr. Gladstone as the leader of the Liberal party. If a man was to be the leader of a party he should be so in reality anal truth, whereas Mr. Gladstone had to be coaxed along, and on some occasions had voted against measures which were of the greatest importance to all true Liberals and advocates of civil and religious liberty. Mr. Dillwyn then concluded by again re marking that he was not a party man in any re spect, but voted for those measures which he con scientiously believed advanced the true interests of the country, let those measures come from which ever side they may A vote of thanks to the hon. member for his at tendance and explanation that night brought the proceedings t0...A close.
