STAMPED sd. venue and oxpondituro of India for the year ending the 30th April, 1866. Mr. URAWFOI3D, after complimenting Sir S. North coto upon the lucidity of his explanation, averted to the system of raising a largo portion of the revenues of India by means of an export duty on grain, which he strongly condemned as opposed to every just principle of taxation. Mr. LAING was of opinion that if any increaso of taxa tion was necessary it ought to he provided fur by means of a succession duty. Tho discussion waq continued by Mr. Fawcett, Mr. and Mr. Bazley, and the rosolution was agreed BELLOT DES MINIERES, BROTHERS, of Greshan►. house, London, we premised to discuss more fully the advantages of American railways over those of Europe. lloSt of these advantages arc natural gifts ; some arise from the state Of society, but many are due to the administration. A railway is. but the highest development of a track —the moans devised by science and ingenuity fJr obcaining the ends which the Red Men achieved when in ►ile they moved along by a 'with through the primeval forest, striking rivers where they were fordable, and moun tain ranges by the easie - st pasms. Before the country has wasted its energies by a general construction over its surface of macadamised roads, it was in the highest degree important that the great disc:►very of the locomotive should be made. That discovery came in the happiest The Contagious Diseases (Animals) Bill was considered in committee. Several clauses were agreed to, and the Chairman was ordered to report progress. The Appropriation Bill was read a second time. A inef;sage was received from the Lords stating that their lordships did not disagree with the Commons'. amend ments, with two exceptions; and, on a motion of the CIIANCELLoR of the Exotr : Qtmit, a resolution WAS agreed to declaring that the_Cotmuons• did not insist upon their own view in these pArticularS.

The report of the directors states that the avail able balance of revenue amounted to £19,170, which was sufficient to provide dividends on" all the pre ference stock and shares, and the directors recom mended the ~payment of those dividends, but they had still to regret their inability to pay any divi dend on. the original stock of the company. The directors thought they were safe in hoping they would have the pleasure of advising the payment of a dividend on the original shares at the February half-yearly meeting. The expenditure on revenue account exceeded that of the corresponding half year by £5,155. This excess iu expenditure chiefly belonged to the item of renewal of permanent way and works. Of interest, not one penny had in the present accounts been charged against capital, not even where the outlay on works was still unprodUc tive. The principal part of the increased revenue was derived from passengers. The gross increase on goods and cattle amounted to only £258, while in minerals there was a falling off of 3,006 tons, representing in money £2lO. The number of horned cattle carried during the half-year was 2,781 more, while that of sheep and pigs was 2,932 less, than iu the corresponding period of 1866. The directors had not made any attempt during the past half-year to proceed with the works of the extension from Enniscorthy to Wexford. The available and still unexercised capital powers of the company would be sufficient to complete those works, if public confi dence in railway securities were so far restored as to enable the directors to issue the shares-of the com pany. Pending the time for doing so on favourable terms, the directors had considered that their wiser course was to devote their attention to developing the traffic on the portion of the undertaking already is operation. As to the movement that had been on foot for some time to urge the Government to purchase the Irish rail ways, the directors wished to offer no opinion. In any event, their anxiety woul l be to ascertain the wishes of the shareholders, and to comply With them. But the d rectors thought there was still a way in which Irish railways might be materially served, and that was by the State becoming the creditor of all the Irish lines to . the full axtent of their several Parliamentary borrowing powers. This could be effected for every railway hi Ireland for £7,000,000, and if it were done b' the creation of terminable annuities on easy terms it would, in the opinion of the directors o f this company, render railway property in Ireland reasonably remunera tive to those who had embarked their money in it. The expenditure on capital account to June 30 last amounted to 11,802,432. The revenue account showed that the receipts for the half year ending June 30 last amounted to £78,912, and the expenses to 135,131; the rent to the Kingstown Company to £1.8,044, and the interest on debentures to £ll,ll2 —together, £61,320 —leaving a balance of £14,622, to which was added.£l,slB from the pre ceding half-year, making £19,170: time to advance the interests of the United States, and has been a powerful means of promoting immi gration and spreading population over the wide beenp ra iriesof manifestlytlie g reat impossiblee entra for - o Ta t t i e ie s. first lt l 'o h u a l b d i inhabitants of a settlement to construct lines of rails as they are built in England or France. If a more simple and inexpensive mode had not been practicable, railroads could not have been the pioneers of emigration but the luxuries and necessities of a high civilisation. Fortunately however, for the United States, a detf o ema trh la e i n l v e rli a w et h p r o i i t u tn a l i l d i : 0 1 the railway system of construction was devised adapted for the traffic required, which cost less than a third of the average sum paid for lines in Europe. But this did not represent the main advantage offered to the enterprising capital ists who undertook to form these highways. Except in the older States the right of way was the gift of the Government, and therefore the line became possessed of the freehold of the ground over which they ran, either -for nothing, or at a comparatively trifling charge. It will be found that these two points involve the esience of Railway Success. If the right of way costs nothing, and construction and equipment the least sum for which the road can be :5o substantially built as to bear in safety the traffic that will pass over it, it must pay, unless its termini and course be such as none but the insane would select. An in vestigation would prove that every great railway failure is owing to a wasteful expenditure, either in construction, parliamentary or other thearight ill actually a t s h es at o h fi s f iu ' e n tah a ancing is a bwraibye.ryitoirnuisut bNevrboeckrnleessinpmurinchd mach expended s a e pe v r u e e rn t e b dd e e e r t in do n ' co r s i at ia g i srnetgihdefe.y against signifying the s l be manifestly the gross sum of the stock estimated at £lOO per share, if £25 only of that £lOO bad been paid. If £2 be annually paid on stock so raised, although it might appear that the line was only yielding 2 per cent., 8 would be the true figure. With such attempts to delude the unwary that they are obtaining bargains, we have nothing to do. The real question is to ascertain the exact sum ex pended on the road , and the net returns given. When, after such a calculation, the railways of the United States are compared with those of Europe it will be seen how admirably the mode adopted in the Union has been to secure for inves tors the greatest advantage. A few of the best paying lines have been selected to give an idea of the enormous profit reaped in America, where the full benefits of the two points we have noticed have b ee n obtained for the owners.

Although it would be impossible to secure such results in England, yet scarcely a line has been constructed even there that would not have paid a satisfactory dividend had the common rules of prudence been observed. The cheapness of the right of way in the States was an adven titious circumstance arising from the sparsely peopled districts ; and the cheapness of construc tion was in a measure forced upon the people by their inability to obtain the gigantic sums in which English directors have been wallowing. The legal and financial system, however, pursued in America shows the shrewder and keener judg ment of the people. The bonds are of longer date, and batter provision is therefore made against large sums falling due ia a period of panic or severe depres sion. The Atnerican law con cedes to these bondholders the indisputable right of selling any line that does not pay the interest promised, and at the same time facilitates the exercise of this right by every ava il a ble means. Thus g iving, not only a nominal power, but encouraging the exercise of it by a simple and inexpensive mode of procedure. This circum stance of itself accounts for the superiority of rail way management and finance in the United States. English directors acted with the security that they could not be dispossessed though they failed to meet their obligations, and it is as little encouraging to the public invited to advance money as to pre ference holders when bills are introduced into Par liament, with the object of creating Pre-Preference Stock. A railway in America grows from small beginnings into a great line. Its increase in magnitude is in proportion to the increase of population. A frail line may run between stations placed widely apart from each other, the trains moving at distant intervals of time. Bat the way becomes more solid as the weight of traffic increases ; other stations are erecterea d as l oca lities along the road become peopled ; greater travel demands more frequent communication, and thus it keeps pace with the requi e nts of the inhabitants, fulfilling all the necessary functions, until, from a mere tramway to an isolated settle ment, it has grown into a main link of a Grand Trunk road. The go-ahead spirit of the American is, perhaps, more strongly exemplified in his iron roads than in aught else. It is not generally known that the length of railways laid down in the United States exceeds that of the United Kingdo e m r i e n e a nt.or world. pro portion little less than 3 to 1, whi l e to France it is more than 4 to 1, being, indeed , 38 p over one-third of the whole mileageToifie the engineers Very few of these lines arc double. are not tied to wide curves and gentle gradients. Of the former, 500 feet radius, and even less, aro frequent, and of the latter one foot in a hundred is a moderate ascent. The cost, therefore, of earth work bridges and viaducts is much reduced, the line maintaining its place on the natural surface. T rails are laid ou cross ties or sleepers about two feet apart. The bridges are generally of wood, and it is only in the thickly peopled districts that the way is fenced. Au American locomotive looks strange to an English ey., guarded by its wedge 'shaped iron framework, called " a cowcatcher," its open-mouthed funnel, and the hoarse scream of its whistle sounds strangely to an ear accos t amed to the shrillness of an English engine. The tariffs of the American roads arc higher than in Europe, the people travel more and consume more, therefore in proportion to population they furnish their road with a greater weight of traffic. The average estimate of cost per mile isbut £7,000, while on• the prairies tat average is reduced to £4,000.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held on 'Thursday at Belfast—Mr. It. Gritnshaw, the deputy-chairman, presided. The report, an abstract of which has appeared in The Sun, was taken as read. The CHAIRMAN, in moving its adoption, said he thought it was a very satisfactory report. There was a considerable increase in the traffic, and in every respect they had reason to be satisfied with the working of the line. The most important thing in the accounts was that they had a dividend at the rate of 1 per cent. more for the past half year than in the preceding half year. Mr. E. WNEILL seconded the motion for the adoption of the report. Mr. J. BROWN was glad to see that they had a dividend with which both the directors and share holders were satisfied. lie thought if the share holders in English lines had made themselves bet ter acquainted with their affairs there never would have been the collapses that had taken place. It appeared that manyshareholders were satisfied when they got a dividend, and never looked whether it was honestly earned or not. In the present case he believed the dividend had been honestly earned. If the receipts on the line from the junction to Cooks town were taken separately he believed they would not pay more than lor 11 per cent. The main line to Ballymena was making from 10 to 12 per cent. before the present branch lines were formed. Mr. E. WNEILL said if the Cookstown branch, per se, did not pay a great dividend, they n o h, that it had served as a good feeder to their line.

A dividend at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum on the ordi retiringres was declared for the past half-year. The directors were re-elected, and the proceedings terminated.

Then the House of Commons say that the £5 copyholders are well qualified to exercise the franchise But that is begging the question. I do not say they :re not, but the onus probandi lies on those who wish to admit them, and not on these who desire to maintain the present qualification. Those who will gain a vote under this frau chiso•within.represented boroughs will be those who are the lessees of an unoccupied an.l unimproved block of land, not worth more than £3 annually ; while those who have improved their property and have buildings upon it, w: be disqualified as voters for the county because their tenants will by its occupation be qualified as borough voters. Then the Ironse_of Commons say that, as the other provisions of the bill tend to increase the number of voters qualified by occupation, and proportionably to diminish those qualified by property, it is desirable to increase the latter by reduc ing the cokhold and 'leasehold franchise in the way pro posed. But can any ono suppose that leasel:olders holding property worth £5 a year on lease; haiing only ono or two years to run or dependent on iv single life, represent a stable proprietary interest in contradiction to a franchise arising from occupation ? •H the House of Commons is so anxious to increase proprietary rights as against those connected' with occupation, I want to know why they forced on the Government the lodger franchise, and struck out franchises based on deposits in the savings bank.?, and on the payment of taxes, that really were connected with the representation of property.? .So much for the reasons of the House of Commons. I think, hcwevcr, as I have already said, that it is mos nndesirablo that-your lord ships should .differ from that hoes) on any point .that is not of considerable' or paramount Importance. Now the number of voters placed on the register under this clause will not, except in two or three Counties—Cheshires Staffordshire, and Lancashire—be very considerable, nor will their admission exercise any considerable effect. I cannot say that I have much respect for the reasons as signed by the House of, Commons, but considering the majority by which they rejected your lordships' amend ments, I cannot flatter myself that there is any chance of their altering their mind, or that any good would result from a conference between the two houses, which is of all forms the most unmeaning. The only other matter of importance is the rejection of the amendment relating to voting papers. I think that the introduction of polling papers would undoubtedly have facilitated the access to the poll of a large number of persons who are now ex cluded, and that in counties it would have greatly dimi nished the expense of elections. But, on the other hand, the House of Commons wore apprehensive that it might increase bribery, corruption, and intimidation. They seem to have thought that the machinery which we had devised could not obviate the dangers incident to the introduction of the system. But even although this clause should be excluded from the bill, it dies not introduce anything objectionable. It would have been an accessory—a valu able accessory to the -bill—but its omission does not pre judice the' useful parts of the bill. It relates to a subject which can again be brought under the 'consideration of ParliaMent, and so satisfied am I of the wisdom and jus tice of the proposal that I am sure we shall eventually see it adopted.' Therefore, seeing that the rejection of the amendment does not introduce anything objectionable in the bill, I do not think that it would - bb wise to insist upon it. I hope that further refleCtion will. satisfy the House of Commons and the country, that with proper pre cautions, this principle may be introduced with the greatest advantage, with a great increase in the number of those who are practically admitted to the franchise, with no addition to bribery and corruption, and certainly with a considerable diminution of that sort of intimidation which arises from tumult and disturbance. On the first occasion when this subject was before thorn the proposhion to introduce voting papers was rejected by a majority of 38. - On the last occasion, although, with a view to disarm opposition, the proposition was limited to the introduction of voting papers in counties, the adverse majority was increased to 52, in a House, including pairs—who, by the way, must have voted without having heard the debate —(a laugh)- of more than GOO members. Consequently any hope of diminishing that majority would be quite illusory. This being the case, I should submit to your lordships that you should be satisfied with the important concession that in one respect has been made to your lordships' feelings and opinions, and that you should not run any risk of losing a measure so important and so deeply interesting to the country. Although I cannot say that the bill is altogether *such as I would wish to sdnitiyet I expect it will prove a settlement of a question of peramouut importance : and under that c nviction I must be excused for moving that your lordships do not insist on'your amendments, with the exception of ono or two of a purely verbal and technical character, about which no difficulty can arise. The Marquis of SALISBURY, who was nearly inaudi ble in the gallery, expressed his regret at the coursetaken by the House in rejecting the clause sanctioning the use of voting papers. Ho was convinced that it would have led to a much larger proportion of electors recording their votes than can bo induced to do so under a system which compels them in many cases to run the gauntlet of a shower of ratten eggs and brick-bats. Considering, however, that the subject could be again introduced to the attention of Parliament in a future session, he was not prepared to ask their lordships to insist upon their amendment. Earl STANHOPE said, that although ho was prepared to concur in the motion of the noble lord at the head of the Government, 'he could not do so without some regret ; for ho believed that the adoption of voting papers would prevent rioting and turbulence at borough, and inordinate expenses at county elections. For his own part, if voting papers had been once introduced he should have looked forward to a time when their use would have been not only permissive, but obligatory in county elections. He must, however, admit that the reasons given by the Premier for not insisting upon this amendment aro con clusive. At the same time he should not be ready to give way had the other house rejected the securing the repre sentation of minorities in three-cornered constituencies. He confessed that he entertained considerable misgivings as to the effect of this bill. Ile thought that a more mode rate measure would have obtained the sanction of Parlia ment; but as this bill is about to become law ho was not disposed to indulge in any gloomy forebodings with respect to it. He trusted that it would prove beneficial to the country, that the working classes would prove them selves worthy of the confidence reposed in them, and that men of intelligence, property, and position would not (as has happened in the United States under a franchise equally extensive) be deterred from taking part in public life. It is the duty of every ono to do his best to secure the successful working of this bill; and he could only ex press his hope that if unhappily any attacks should here after be made upon the Church, the fundamental institu tions of the country, or the right of property, it will not be found difficult to resist them by the combined opposition of the classes who are most interested in the stability of the country. • The Earl of CLANCARTY expressed his regret that the House of Commons had declined to assent to the adoption ef voting papers. The Earl of HARROWBY did not desire that the house should insist upon these amendments, but at the same time he trusted that the subject of voting papers would receive further attention, and that in some future session a measure would be passed for their adoption. Ho must,how ever, congratulate tho house upon the sanction given by the House of Commons to the principle of the representa tion of minorities. He trusted that the application of that principle would be carried further than is done by the pre sent bill. • Earl RUSSELL said that ho not only assented to the I conclusion coma to by the noble earl, that that house should not insist on these amendments, but ho entirely concurred in the course taken by the House of Commons. ll° thought they were quite justified in adhering to the reduction of the copyhold and leasehold qualification, and he also agreed with them in the opinion that the introduc tion of voting papers woulikhave-afforded increased facili ties for bribery and intimidation. lie trusted that if any bill for the adoption of voting papers should hereafter pass the house, the lower house would refuse their assent to it. For although a great deal is said about the interruption of elections by riots and tumults under the present system, he must say that, having attended many elections, ho had never seen any riots or tumults. (A laugh.) It was then too late to enter upon any discussion as to the general merits of the bill. He could only express his hope that the newly enfranchised electors will exercise their powers wisely, and that every one w ho is in a position to do so will exercise his influence an d do his best to promote the Thesuccessful 11;i r - s q v s k working g w o f E t s h it II contended th a t votingi I papers are absolutely necessary as a protection to voters in Ireland.

Wrexham,'Mold, and Connah's Quay Railway, and Great Western Railway (Finance) Bills, were read a third time and passed. THE DEER REMOVAL ACT. Viscount EVERSLEY presented a petition from the inhabitants of the New Forest, complaining of the opera tion of the Doer Rtmnoval Act and the enclosure of that forest. The act effected the enclosure of 16,000 acres, and did away in a great measure, it was alleged, with the ad vantages of common right. The Duke of BUCKINGHAM said that the whole of the 16,000 acres would bo thrown open as soon as the treed and underwood should be removed from the forest. 116 had considered the matter with attention, and he thought that the report that was to be laid before the house would fully satisfy their lordships that the rights of commoners had been fully taken into consideration. The Earl of MALMESBURY and the Duke of BUCCLEUCII made a few remarks as to the inadmissability of the enclo sure, and the petition was laid on the table. REPRESENTATION OF THE PEOPLE BILL. The Earl of DERBY said—ln rising to call attention to the state in which the bill for amending the representation of the people has come back to us from the other house, I take it for granted that it is the general opinion of your lordships house that, except in a case of extreme necessity, arising out of the continuation of some very objectionable provisions on the part of the House of Commons, it is not desirable that your lordships should take any steps that may risk the rejection of a bill which has occupied the attention of the House of Commons for nearly five months. That rejection would lead to a great and not entirely un reasonable agitation during the recess, would render un availing all the labour and pains which the HouSe of Com mons have bestowed on the subject, and would cause the attention of Parliament to be monopolised next session, as it has been for some previous sessions, by the subject of reform, to the exclusion of every measure to which it is desirable their attention should be given. I shall, there fore, pass over all the minor amendments which the House of Commons has proposed to make, and among these minor amendments I hope I shall not bo considered to depreciate the universities if I include amongst these that amendment which your lordships introduced, whereby the right of voting for the boroughs of Oxford and Cambridge would have been given to students of the universities resident in colleges and halls. That has been rejected by the House of Commons, but I do not think that is a point on which it is desirable that wo should take issue with them. I shall confine myself to three points, on one of which the House of Commons has agreed, and on two of which they have disagreed with your lordships. The first was the amendment made by Lord Cairns, for the pur pose of providing that in three-cornered constituencies two votes only shall be given by each elector. That pro vision was adopted by an almost unanimous vote of your lordships' house, and in deference to your lordships' judgment the House of Commons and the Government have thought it right to accept the clause, and it now stands part of the bill. lam myself not favourable to the principle of three-cornered constituencies. They are a novelty never heard of in this country before the Reform Act of 1832, and a novelty which I do not think has worked advantageously. But if it be thought desirable iu any case to give effect to the representation of a minority —of which I say nothing, although I think it very doubt ful—then it is clear that the only cases in which you can introduce this system are in the three-cornered constit uencies and in the City of London, which is represented by four members. 1 du not object to trying the experiment on this limited scale, but I shall certainly object to the ad dition to the number of three-cernored constituencies with a view to the further introduction of the principle of the representation of minorities. To the other two amend ments introduced by your lordships, the House of Com mons have, I regret to say, not assented. Oue of them is the raising of the copyhold and leasehold county qualifi cation from £5 to £lO. In rejecting this amendment the House of Commons have thought fit to state their reasons, and upon looking over them I am forcibly struck with the wisdom of the advice given to a judge on a certain occa sion :—" Give your judgment by all means, but not your reasons." More inconclusive reasons have never been given for any step than those which are offered on this subject by the House of Commons. They begin by saying that every other franchise gives by the Reform Act has been reduced, and that, therefore, the copyhold franchise also should bo reduced. But although it is true that all the occupation franchiser created by the Reform Act are reduced by this bill, the 40s. freehold franchise, which existed before the Reform Bill, has not been lowered. And when it is said that because 10s. freeholds confer a vote, HOUSE OF COMMONS-LAST EVENING. -- - The SPEAKER took the chair at 4 o'clock. THE ATTACK ON THE REV. Mr. CAMPBELL. Mr. VANCE asked the Chief Secretary f or I re l an d if information had reached the Irish Gover nment of a mur derous attack on the Rev. W. G. Cam p b ell , a Wesleyan s m e i v s e e r io el n y ar iiu y n s i t .e a d tio a n n e d d hi a s t li A fe th e l n o d naergored by h av i ng been; if he had no t b een 1 stoned in the village of Granard ; and if any steps had been taken to bring tho perpetrators of this outrage to justice ? The ATTORNEY-GENERAL for LRELAND paid THE VOLUNTEERS. Mr. "amp asked the Secretary of War whether it was the intention of her Majesty's Government to recommend Parliament to grant an increased allowance to the volun teer force, as, failing such increased allowance being made, many' of those volunteer clips, which wore compOsed principally of aitiSans, must be disbanded. - Sir J. PA.KINGTQN.said he could not venture to say what would be recommended-next year. lle.might state that GOsiornment had given its serious consideration to the memorial which had been presented on- the subject of the inadequacy of the capitation grant - . Lord ELCIIO -hoped that when the. motion was again considered, the modo end time of payment would not be passed over Without consideration. Sir J. PAKINGTON said' it had already been decided to change the mode of payment. For theluture, as soon as the number of effi..Aents hid been ascertained, the grant would bo paid the commanding officer and the members of the finance committee: Tali' RAILWAY COMMISSION: , Mr. BASS asked the Vice-President of the Board whe ther it was the intention of her Majesty's Government to take intoconsideration, during the recess, the reports of the royal railway commission, with a view to .any action upon the subject. Mr. CAVE said serious attention had ' already been directed to the subject, but he thought it was too early to state what would be done next, session. The proceedings, that had occurred during the present session did not make the subject a very hopeful one. ABYSSINIA. Mr. H. SEYMOUR asked in whose possession her Ma jesty's Government acknowledge the coast of Abyssinia on the shores of the Red Sea to be from Sonakiin to Zei Lord STANLEY said ho believed the Turkish Govern ment some time ago placed Mossowah and the neighbour hood under the Government of the Viceroy of Egypt.• Mr. SEYMOUR asked whether any part of it was claimed by France. Lord STANLEY was not aware that any such claim had been put in' by the French Government Sir .J..GRAY asked if the Government ha:l received any communication with respect to the alleged ill-treatment of British engineeri employed on the railroads in Egypt, and if steps had been taken to adjust the matter in dispute. Lord STANLEY, in reply, said intelligence of the mat ter had boon received. The men being engine-drivers they struck on account of certain grievances, which re mained unredressod. The Egyptian Government had directed a strict inquiry to be made into the whole of the matter. Money had been sent out to enable the men to return to England if they wished to do so. (Hear, hoar.) THE INDIA. BUDGET. On . the motion for going into committee on the Indian Budget, Mr. AYRTON rose to move the following resolutions: —" That the Governor-Gene-al of India should be em powered, with the sanction of her Majesty's Secretary of State for India, to conduct the business of each de partment of Government in concert with ono or more members of his Council instead of the whole Council ; that, in order to insure better attention to the affairs of trade and agriculture, an additional member of the Go vernor General's Council in ludia should be appointed to superintend those affairs ; that the Government of Bengal should be placed upon the same footing as the Government of Bombay ; that one nominated and one elected member of the Council of the Secretary of State for India should cease to hold office at the end of each year; that the members of the Council should retire in rotation according to their length of service, whether as members of the Council or as East India Directors; that the existing practice of recording by resolutions of this house certain financial facts relating, to India should be discontinued; and that, instead thereof, the estimates for all ecpondituro in Europe of her Majesty's Secretary of State for India in Council should be approved by a vote of this house before the same is incurred.' The hon. member took the opportunity of entering into the mode of managing - railways in ladia, and contended generally that matters were badly managed, so much so that where profit ought to arise a deficit invariably oc curred, and all this was occasioned because persons of high intelligence were not employed. Mr. LAING was not blind to the defects which character ised the administration of the India Government, but could not allow that the change should bo a sweeping one. On the whole the system had been a splendid success, not withstanding that the recent melancholy events in Orissa were clearly traceable to the mismanagement of the local government, upon whose report alone the Governor-Gene ral was enabled to act on the occasion, Enumerating several of the faults of the system of government, the right hon. gentleman adverted particularly to the Board of Re venue in connection with the Orissa famine, and urged that that department, which was a mere wheel within a wheel, and a real incumbrance, should at once be sup pressed. After some observations from Mr. IL SET MOUR and Col. SYKES, Lord CRANBORNE held that the Government of India, so far from being an egregious failure, as was asserted by Mr. Ayrton, had proved a brilliant success. With regard to the question of irrigation, however, the hon. member was correct. What India was suffering from was the tendency to centralisation, which required to be rigidly controlled, for pers nal responsibility was the key to the government of India. Mr. MILL could not consent to undervalue the use and importance of councils, and stated that no administrative act was ever done in India but the reasons for it were fully stated in writing. He agreed in what Mr. Ayrton had said respecting the government of Bengal. He himself had seen stupid, careless, idle, and frivolous men in the go vernment of the Presidencies, who were so utterly unfit for the duty that but for their councils he did not know how the administration of these presidencies could have been conducted. Mr. J. B. SMITH followed with a few remarks upon the necessity of encouraging the culture plant in India, and opening up the river communication, t especially that by the channel of the Godavory; and then, Mr. Ayrton having withdrawn his resolutions the house having gone into ccmmittee, Sir Stafford Nortlacote made his annual exposition as Indian Secretary of the State of Indian finance. In doing so the right hon. condition baronet referred to the satisfactory of the people of India, as tested by the enormous increase of the revenue from salt, which showed that there was a consi derable consuming power on the part of tho labouring classes. In consequence of the deficiency in the revenue for 1865-C6, however, the Government had looked with some anxiety into the Indian accounts, in order to ascer tain whethei there were any considerations which should lead them to take measures for bringing about a be ter state of the finances. Tho question was, could the expen diture of tho country be rechiced ? And first, as to the military expenditure, he found that the expenditure on that account in India somewhat exceeded that for the whole of the United Kingdom, and so far as he could see be was not sanguine in being able to effect any large reduction. In like manner an examination of the charges for estab lishments was as little encouraging, for the cost of living and all other expenses wore augmenting-, and an increase was to be looked for rather than a diminution in the pay of the army. Again, it would not be possible to economise the cost of the collection of revenue, or the administration of police, law, or education. Then, with regard to the interest on the debt, it had increased to a certain extent, though net in a greater pioportion than the revenue ; whilst he was happy to say that Indian securities main tained their position in comparison with Consols. In ssary the next place, Mr. 31-issey set down the dienands as ne e for irrigation works at £700,000; in addition to which lie Proposed to make an advance of one million to the Go vernment of Bombay against the land sales, which had been deferred in consequence of the late financial d 25,000 cul ties in that presidency, and a further advance Of £3 to Calcutta for water works, both of these latter sums to be repaid. Those sums came together to about £2,000,000, which would have to be raised by loan. Exclusive of that, however, the expenditure sort her current year was calculated at £17,310,000, whilt e evenue_ would be £16,283,000 ; thus showing a deficiency of £1,057,0 00 . To meet this deficiency Mr. Mzissey proposed to levy a licence tax, which ho calculated to produce a half million, leaving £557,000 still to be provided for. Then, to make his ba lance right, Lee ould not add ©t further to taxa tion, but remov a portion of the expenditure to debt. Two millions had been called for for barracks en ti re ly out in the pre of sen t year, and in stead of providing for it the revenue, ho proposed to raise ono-half of it by way of loan, to be paid off within a short and definite period. Thus it would be incumbent on the Indian Government to keep up a considerable surplus of income over expenditure for several years after the expenditure on the barracks should have ceased, in order to clear off the debt so con tracted. In conclusion, the right hon. baronet moved the usual formal resolutions declaratory of the state of the re ,. 1 {
