XARKET AND I*OI4.IIIERCIAL INTF , L'S, ITE NOE, TWELVE O'CLOCK. As was fully anticipated the directors of the Bank of England did not find it necessary to alter their terms of discount. This circumstance pro duced scarcely any comment, nor has 'there been any conversation upon the subject for some time past. A lowering of the quotation to 21 per cent. Would, in the existing state of affairs, produce little or no effect upon trade, and it would a'so fail to szeure to the national establishment any substantial increase of business. There were no gold operations at the Bank of England yesterday. The following vessels left Melbourne in the month of February with gold, viz., the Sunflower with 1,125 ounces and the Superb with 40,000 ounces. The Bruce has arrived from Australia with £25,000 in gold. A dividend at the rate of £3 10s. per share will be r ecommended by the directors of the Royal Mail Steam Packet Company, at the meeting to be held on the 24th instant, together with £1 10s. per share from the insurance fund, for the half-year ending 31st December last.

Yesterday, Colonel Erskine, Inspector-General of Volunteers, visited Dover for the purpose of making final arrangements as to the plan of the intended evolutions on Easter Monday, and the rendezvous of the various battalions prior to marching on to the review ground and after the movements of the field day are over. On the arrival of the Inspector- General and staff at Dover they were received by some of the principal military authorities of the garrison and members of the Corporation, and rode over the groUnd in rear of the Castle Hill forts on which it is proposed the review shall take place. It is stated that the probability is that Major-General M'Cleverty will have chief command of the review, while Major-General Ellice will command the Castle and fortifications. The plan of the evolutions is stated to be exceedingly simple. The forces will be divided into an attack and defence; and not only will the Castle Hill forts, but the guns from the abcient fortress of Dover Castle itself, take part in the mimic battle. A hostile army is supposed to have landed on the shore be tween the eastern side of the Castle and the South Foreland, and made.their way up the cliffs between the Castle and Deal-road, and having gained what is known as the Ridge, opened their fire. Some 8,000 or 10,000 troops, including regulars, are to be sent out to feel the enemy, but being driven in by superior forces, the guns of the Castle and Castle forts will open fire with a view to check the advance of the invaders, and ultimately a general engagement will take on the plateau, covering a space of about two miles. The march past is to take place on the review ground prior to the evolutions, the glacis of the Castle not affording sufficient ac commodation. Although there are a large number of bills in the windows all over the town announcing "Apartments to let," it is reported that most extravagant demands are being made in some quarters for lodgings, not withstanding that the cmparation have urged mode ration. The Dover people may depend upon it they will never have a second volunteer review if this course is persisted in. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE.

The quotation of gold at Paris is about =at par, and• he short exchange on London is t 5.10 per £1 sterling. On otaparing these rates with the English Mint price of mil. per ounce for standard gold, it appe.,rs that g old is about I.loth per cent. dearer in Paris that' in London. ['lie imurse of exchange at New York on London ior bins a 6') days' sight is about lON per cent. At this rate there is no profit on the importatid a di gold from the United states Mix OVER AND KILLED.—An inquiry was held by Mr. W. Payne, the City coroner, last evening at Guy's Hospital, touching the death of Willia.rn Wisdom, aged 39 The deceased was a warehouseman, and last Saturday evening, at 8 o'clock, he' was crossing the road at East cheap, to get into a Camberwell omnibus, when he slipped and fell under the wheels of a laundress's van, which passed over his body. He was instantly picked up and carried to the hospital, where he died. At the time of the occur rence he was accompanied by his son, aged 11, who stated that his father was in a hurry to catch the omnibus, but when he found he was falling, and could not save himself,. he pushed his son ou t o f th e way o f the van and thus saved his life. Th e b oy i s now very ill from th e f r i ght. Mr. Stephen Bushell, house surgeon, said that the deceased expired at 12 o'clock On Saturday night from the injuries he had sustained. The jury returned a verdict of "Acci dental death." MISSING SHIPS.—The Queen, which sailed from Liverpool on the 16th of October for New York; thella rier, from Bristol for St. Michael's, which sa il e d f rom Lun d y Roads. on the 24th of December; and the Tally-Ho, which shipped from St. Michael's on the 16th of January, and ought to have returned, have not since been heard of. EASTER TERM.—The arrears in the common law courts for Easter Term, commencing on Monday next, have just been exhibited. In the Queen's Bench they number 116 ; in the Common Pleas 49, and iu the Exche quer 79, making in the three courts 244. Of new trials in the Queen's Bench there are 33, of which 31 are fur argu ment and one for judgment.. In the Common Pleas there are 15 rules for argument in the. now trial list, and in the ExcheqUer two for Fidgment and 14 for argument. In the special paper of the Queen's Bench there are 72 for argument, and in the Exchequer 10 for argument. Of enlirged rules, there are nine in the Queen's Bench, five in the Common Pleas, and in the peremptory paper, four in the Exchequer. In the Common Pleas, there is one postponed motion, and four cases standing over for the judgment of the court, and in the Exchequer, iu the list of errors and appeals, there are three for judgment and six for argument. As the Lord Chancellor will receive the judges on the first day of the Term, the Chancery and common law courts will not sit before two o'clock. THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, APRIL ii, 1867. Centi al Criminal Court—(This Day). THIRD COURT. (Before the Common Sergeant.) THE JAMAICA PROSECUTION. THE INDICTMENT IGNORED. This morning the witnesses to support the indict ment preferred against Col. Nelson and Lieut. Brand for the wilful murder of W. J. Gordon were examined before the grand jury. The inquiry occupied about two hours, and the result was that the grand jury ignored the bill of indictment. The grand jury some time after attended in Court, and handed in the bills of indictment in the case 3 disposed of, when The Clerk of the Arraigns read them. in the ordinary manner, the last being the " Bill against Coloue Nekon and Lieutenant Brand for wilful murder not fOund." The announcement was received with a manifes tation of applause, but the ebullition of feeling was quickly suppressed by the Sheriff. The result of the _inquiry caused the greatest excitement within and without the three courts sitting for the despatch of business, the congratu latory party being considerably in the majority. The efforts of the Jamaica Committee have thus ended in a total and complete failure. OLD COURT. (Before Mr. Baron Channell.) Charles Anderson, remanded from last session on a charge of wilful murder ou the 'high seas, was placed in the dock. The surgeon of Newgate stated that when the prisoner first came to Newgate he answered certain questions in a very rational manner, but after a while ho became silent, and refused to answer any question, and he had preserved silence ever since. Ho, however, conducted himself the same as other prisoners with respect to exercise. Baron Channel' asked whether be thought he was silent through malice, or silent through the visitation of God. Mr. Gibson said he could not answer the question with any certainty. He thought, however, he understood what was going on. The learned Judge told the jury it was a question for them as to the cause of the prisoner's refusal to plead. The foreman said it was the opinion of the jury that the prisoner was silent through malice. The prisoner was thereupon again called on to plead, but he remained silent., and a plea of not guilty was accord ingly entered for him. The learned gentleman who appeared to defend the pri soner elected to have the case tried by a jury of English- men. The prisoner was then removed from the dock. CRAMGE OP MURDER. James Conde and Mary Conde, his wife, were indicted for the wilful murder of William Conde. Both prisoners pleaded not guilty. The witnesses not being in attendance, the case was postponed. POLICE IN'.CELLIGEACE. — This Day. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ROBBING A " CHRISTY'S MINSTREL.”—Wm. Hayes, a tall, gentlemanly-looking young man, who gave the ad dress No. 343, Strand, was charged before Mr. Knox with stealing an overcoat of the value of £lO, the property of Mr. Henry T. Mudge, one of the Christy's Minstrels. There was a second charge against the prisoner. Mr. Mudge said he resided at the Crown Hotel, Rupert street, and on Tuesday afternoon last ho was lying dowri in his room, taking a little rest. He was awoke by the prisoner, who asked him the address of a person. He told the prisoner that ho would get it for him the next day, and the prisoner remarked that he (Mr. Mudge) appeared sleepy, and that he would leave, and did so, taking his(Mr. Mudge's) overcoat, of the value of £lO, with him. Police-constable Butcher, 137 0, said that on taking the prisoner into custody, and telling him the charge, he at first denied all knowledge of the coat, but afterwards said that he pledged it for 10s., but did not know wkere. Police-constable Dawson, 301 A, said there was a second charge ready to be preferred against the prisoner. Mr. Constant Va , .den Brouck, of Argy:e-street, Regent street, said he was dining at the New York Hotel, •Leicester-square, yesterday evening, and left his overcoat in the coffee-room, from which place it was taken. Dawson said that when the prisoner was brought to the Vine-street station by Butcher, he challenged helm with stealing the coat of Mr. Vanden Brouck, and at first ha denied it, but afterwards he said that he was at the New York Hotel yesterday, and that it was no use attempting to deceive him (Dawson), as ho did take the coast, and that he had pledged it for 108. in Wardoui-street. He also said that he•did not know what possessed him to do it, and that no one knew what he he had gone through during the past few days. The coat having been produced by a pawnbroker's as sistant, Mr. Knox remanded the prisoner, who seemed in a very desponding state of mind. WESTMINSTER. A Swiss ATTEMPTING SUICIDE.— Gofred ltuhlin, a Da tive of Zurich, Switzerland, was charged with attempting to commit suicide by getting over the balustrade of West minster- bridge. Joseph Capel, a young man, said at 12 on Wednesday night he saw the prisonor hanging over Westminster bridge. He had hold of the balustrades with his left hand, and was suspended in the air. Witness, with assistance, rescued him from his perilous situation and took him to King-street police station, on the road to which he at tempted to escape. The prisoner, who could not speak English, had the evidence interpreted by his brother, and said nothing to the charge. In answer to Mr. Selfe, the brother said he was a cabinet maker, and his father a printer in Zurich. He had work, and sent over for his brother, his father paying the pas sage. Work being short, he went in search of some on Wednesday, leaving his brother at home ; he said he could not stop alone—he would sooner be out of the world, and having quieted hini left the house. When he returned he had gone, and could not be found. He was not right in his head. Neither witness nor the father could afford to pay for his being sent home, although he wanted to go there. He requested a remand, so that he might make some arrangement for sending him home. Remanded till Thursday. LAMBETH. ROBBERY AD ASSAULT ON THE POLICE.—John William Davison, aged 19, describ3d as a labourer, was charged b3fore the bitting magistrate at this court with stealing a quantity of valuable fowls, and with committing a mur derous assault on the police. Thomas Weekeby, of Cross-street, and Thos. William Kelkmng, of Wood'a-buiblings, East-lane, Walworth-road, identified the fowls, which included some handsome game tocks that were stolen from their premises On Tuesday morning last. The former identified the prisoner as one of four men whom he saw on his grandmother's promises at 4 o'clock in the morning, and one of the men was carry ing a large parcel. William Smith, police-constable, 201 P, ,said he took the prisoner into custody, and a desperate struggle ensued ; the prisoner with a very heavily-loaded stick (produced) struck him several blows across his back and head.. The prisoner Was remanded. THAMES. REFRACTORY PAUPERS IN THE CITY OF LOXDON —Winifred Grogan, aged 45, was. brought before Mr. Par tridge, charged with refractory conduct and wilful damage in the City of London Union, Bow-road. • The prisoner had been an inmate of the Union-house, at intervals, for several years. She is a widow, and since the death of her husband had given birth to an illegitimate child, which was placed by the guardians in the General London District School, Cuckoo-farm, Han well. Yester day she again demanded her discharge, and that her child should be restor. d to her. She was informed that her child was ill, and that it could not leave the district school at present ; on which she broke out into a volley of abuse against Mr. John Saunders, the master. She pulled off her shoes, and repeatedly called out "Now lock ►ne up, lock me up, you --." The whole house resounded with her screams and shouts. Remonstrances were of no avail, and an atteinpt.was made to take her to a place of safety and lock her up. She then fastened her teeth on the shoulder of Mr. Dunn, the assistant-master, and bit a piece out of his coat and shirt, marking his flesh, but fortunately not doing him any injury except the ruin of a gooi coat and good linen. She raved, swore, and tlasphenied in.a ter rible manner. She put herself in a fighting attitude and was with great difficulty secured. Ou the way to the station-house she used disgusting language all the way. Mr. Saunders said the guardians would be very glad to part with the child if they could do so with safety. Mr. Partridge sentenced the prisoner to two months imprisonment and hard labour. Mars Daly, Elizabeth Heskett, and Ann Holmes, each aged 16 years, were charged with disorderly conduct in the City of London Union-house, They were born in the house, and the children of paupers. Situations had been obtained for them, and they would not retain them. Two of the prisoners were brought before Mr. Paget three weeks ago for disorderly conduct, and warned. Yester day they amused themselves by screaming, laughing, and shouting, and disturbing the well-conducted inmates. • This continued some time. Mr. Partridge sentenced the prisoners - to 21 days' im prisonment and hard labottr. AQUATICS. OXFORD AND CAMBRIDGE BOAT RACE. PUTNEY, April 11. The tempestuous state'of the weather this morn ing rendered rowing a very difficult process. Never theless the training men were not to be disap pointed. It had been announced that the Oxonians would row against a picked crew of London water men, and, severe as the weather was, there were many persons at Putney to witness it. At ast 10 the following watermeu took their places in an outrigger:— T. Wise, of .. ........ T. Iloare •••• , ~, Janes Heath J. W. Tagg ..K e w. ..lizunmersmith. ~.Greeuwich. oulsey. G. Carman.. B!ackwall. J. Capling Oi%l Swan. 11. licilcy (chanipion)... _Putney. J. Philips (coxswain) Fulham. They rowed up the liver, followed shortly after wards by the Oxonians, to the appointed place for the start. In less than half an hour after this the Cambridge went up, accompanied by a scratch crew of gentle men amateurs from the Leander boat-house, who were anxious to do by them as the Oxonians had been done by on the previous day. There were three or four very determined and gallant short races in the way down from the top of Chiswick Eyot, and the results were very close but varied, the professionals having the great ad vantage presented by the heavy gale and rough state of the water. The last start was from the Soap Works point down, and the race was won by Oxford by half a length. The Cautabs gave the'other crew a length start just below lla,rumersmith-bridge, and beat them gallantly in three-quarters of a mile by half a length. Oxford in their races did 40, Cambridge in theirs 42. NOTES FROM TRAINING QUARTERS. (THIS DAY.) RICHM OND. The weather has been so very bad here through out the early part of the week, rain descending ex ceedingly heavy at times, that training operations have again been sadly interfered with, and the moors are not, consequently, in such good order as could bedesired. Black Prince has not yet com menced leading work for Plaudit, having been too recently in'physic ; but we understand he will do so at the close of the .present week. This morning Lozenge took the crack three nice long canters, after which they galloped nearly a mile and three quarters, the pair being accompanied by Strath conan, Newland, Rose, Violet, and Bob Chambers. The pace, however, was far from good ;and the Two Thousand hero is still looking very big. His action though is all that can be desired; and Snowden continues pleased with his mount. New land is getting into nice form for the Chester Cup. Rose has not improved so much as Violet. Mol davia and El Cid were quite fit when they left here. Lord Zetland's team appears to be pretty forward in condition, especially Bumblekite, who is alternately ridden by Mr. Thompson and John Coates, Imperator leading her a mile and three quarters steadily each morning. Podargus is trot ting about. ILSLEY. • Achievement had a three mile sweat this morn ing, going steadily, and her action was as beautiful as ever. - She will be quite fit on the One Thousand day ; and she will win that event and the Oaks cleverly, having much improved. Elland galloped all two miles; but Dunsany, Garlevisure, Split the-Difference, and the rest of Dover's string, bar ring the two-year-olds, were merely cantering, being in physic. Dalby has been eased a little, but he is pretty forward. To-day he galloped a mile and a half only, and at a slow pace. Buckfoot did a couple of miles. The Celt has not shown all the week, being very infirm. 'The weather has been exceed ingly stormy for sonic days past. NEWMAR [SET. The Rake was cantering some time on Long Hill this morning, and finished his exercise with a steady mile-and-a-half gallop, looking and going well. "The Hermit is rattling along, and from the attention being paid to him he may run in the Two Thousand, after all, especially as Plaudit is so fishy in the market. He did a mile-and-a-half gallop at fair speed this morning. Dragon, Enchanteur, and Trocadero halseveral smart canters, and then gal loped a mile-and-three-quarters, the three moving beautifully. D'Estournel, whose temper would not let him run up to form last Tuesday, was indulged in trotting exercise ; but Ravioli and Moleskin had a mile-and-a-quarter gallop. Opoponax galloped a mile-and-a-half ; but Hippia merely cantered, appearing to go a bit lame. Julius went a nice mile-anda-half spin ; and Bertie was following Blinkhoolie a similar distance. Star of India galloped quite a mile-and-three-quarters, and no animal could possibly have better ac tion. Friponnier, Sceur de Charlie, and Van Amburgh were severally active ; and so were Knight of the Garter, Suffolk, Falkenstein, Ben Nevis, Python, Miss Harriette, Verulam, Bombastes, Jasper, and Man of Ross. Archimedes galloped nearly two miles ; and Thalassius led Sir Oliver a mile and a quarter. Sealskin and Tormentor each had a two-mile gallop. Tourmalin and Tomahawk went a mile and three quarters. Vauban had two smart canters, ana then galloped about a mile and a quarter steadily. Rondiuella spun merrily along for a mile and a half ; and the Strafford's dam colt (engaged in the Port, for which he is likely to walk over, as the Peer and Fre . edom are not only back ward, but merely trotted to-day) galloped nearly a couple of miles. L AMBO URNE. Marksman galloped a mile and a half at a nice pace, and is looking beautiful. His temper has materially improved, and Waugh is giving him faster work now. The colt exercises by himself. Mirella is leading the rest of Mr. Merry's elder horses; and Stockstill the two-year olds. All are healthy, but the majority somewhat fleahy. MALTON. All John Scott's horses were put into physic last Sunday, and until this morning were restricted to walking and trotting exercise. Grand Cross and Wild Wind cantered with Knight of the Crescent to-day, and then wound up with a smart gallop of a little over a mile. Most of our trainers being at Thirsk very little was done beyond trotting and cantering about. FYFIELIJ. Pepper's Ghost took the four year old Mayonaise filly and the Splitvote colt a mile and three quar ters ; and Savernake led Staghound and Captain Kidd nearly as far. Dulcimer, Adam Bede, and Overture were walking only. Arcala was an ab sentee. LEWES. Actml, after cantering with Ostreger and Bin nacle, galloped a couple of miles this morning, the pace being good. The mare never appeared better, and moves in rare form. She will take a lot of doing on the Roodee. STOCKBBIDGE. John Davis led Lecturer about two miles early to-day, going at a very fair pace ; but the Duke was restricted to walking exercise, as were Lady 'Later, Distin, and Fairfield. Miss Bateman took Lady Barbara and Valenciennes over a mile ; and Black Prince pioneered Seville, Red Riband, Lady Rose, and Ines a mile and a half. FINDON. Owain Glyndwr has done no work all this week, nor Offington either ; and as Goater is away (at headquarters), .our other horses are merely trotting and cantering. The weather is very unsettled.

The LouD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at five o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. Dundee New Gas and Brighton Improvement Bills were read a second time. PERSONAL EXPLANATIO I4 . The DUKE of MARLBORORGH entered into an ex planation relative to some quotations which he had com mented upon, and which had been made by a noble mar quis (Westmeath) on the Treasury bench. It appeared that he had from misconception erroneously conceived the meaning of the noble marquis, and in consequence of a letter from him he now made this explanation. The Marquis of 'WA 3 C.II 3,1 T if tated that most bitter censures had been made upon him in consequence of his having fairly stated what he had now in writing under his own hand. He had been accused of doing an unhand some act, and it was not surprising that he should speak with some degree of warmth. He had not in discussing the question of ritualism in any way attacked a right rev. prelate in that house. The noble marquis concluded by laying upon the table of the house several petitions against ritualistic practices. BILLS. The Marine Mutiny Bill was read a second time and passed. TILE CANADA RAILWAY LOAN BILL. The Duke of BUCKING LIAM said that in proposing the third reading of this bill he might state that it was intended that a loan of .C 3,000,000 should be given to Canada for a railway loan, and that the new Confederated should give certain guarantees to the Imperial Government for its repayment and for the consolidation of a sinking fund, and that a railway should also be con structed communicating between the centre of authority in Canada and to the nearest ports. It was more especially necessary that there should not be any restriction 'by hav ing a railway passing through another county, and the present arrangement would allow the whole line .to go through the Confederate Provinces. This present scheme wouid be precisely in keeping with the system of Cana dian railways. It; had been shown that, desPite the vicis situdes of climate, there would be in future on American railways vary little interruption of the traffic. The present proposal appeared advantageous to Ca nada and to the country. It would in the main greatly facilitate the intimacy between the mother country and the provinces. It was necessary for those who brought forward this motion to prove and be satis fied that the guarantee now to bo given to Canada would not involve any expense ultimately to the tax-payers of this country, and taking into consideration the great de velopment that had taken place in Canada in conse quence of the assistance rendered by the mother country that they were perfectly justified in granting this loan, relying upon the security which Canada offered. By the last clause of this act the Canadian Government had proposed to give a preference for the repayment of this loan, even against any debt that might be incurred by the mudicipal Government of that country. There was an evident desire on the part of the colony to comply with the wish of the Imperial Government to repay the I I loan. • Lord LYVEDEN was opposed to the bill from the fact that, it had not been deffaitely settled which •way tie Env was to p iss, and it was notorious that every ou of OIL railways which bad been promoted in Canada had faiLd. de thought that by holding out this great warnla to the United States, that they might be in duced to go to war .with us. By fortifyinc, and proceeding as we were doing we were very much ;non• i:kely. to induce a war than by taking a different c9u do di:Tilted the advisability of the line in question. Ito w.o not aware what the Canadians had done tow•ar:ls the forti fications of the country, and trusted that the noble duke would explain this to them. (LEFT SPEAKING.) • HOUSE OF COMMONS—THIS EVENING. The SPEAKER took the chair at four o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The tollowins bills were read a third time and passed : Aylesbury Market, Barnoldswick Railway, Bristol and Exeter Railway (Exe Valley Railways), Dundalk and Ureenore Railway, Dundee Gas, Great Western Railway, Launceston Roads, Nowcastle-upon-Tyne and Gateshead Gas, Poole Roads, Salford Borough, Sheffield Water (A►mendment), Sheffield Water (New Works), Stockport Corporation Water, and Waterford and Wexford Railway, and .Rosslare Harbour. ENGLLND AND SPAIN. Mr. OSBORNE asked whether the noble lord the Secre tary for Foreign Affairs would give the house any precise information with respect to the position of the Government with Spain. Lord STANLEY said there were, unfortunately, two questions of importance now pending between this country and Spain. The first, with• . respect to the Tornado ;he had received a communication which he could not look upon as altogether satisfactory, but which he did not take to be final or conclusive. With respect to the other, and more important question, viz., that relating to the Queen Victoria, he had received no reply to his communication to the Spanish Government. INTERNATIONAL CURRENCY CONFERENCE. In reply to Mr. FOSTER, Lord STANLEY said he had received in invitation from the French Government to send a delegate to the conference, and he had replied that a gentleman would be empowered to attend and take part in the proceedings of the conference, but it was to be clearly understood that he was not in any way to bind the Government to any pro position. TUE REFORM BILL. In reply to Mr. Hinszwr, The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said the question of rights of compound householders was a Very difficult one. Ho had placed a number of amendments on the paper, and so had other hon. members. He could only say so long as those amendments were in consonance with the principle of the bill, viz., personal payment of taxes and term of residence, ho should give the most careful con sideration to all propositions from whichever side of 'the house they should come. Earl GROSVENOR said there was a general feeling on both sides of the house that the question should be settled, and that a bill should be passed this session which would be a lasting one. He believed.that there was a general feel ing in the house that the further consideration of the Re form Bill should be postponed until after Easter, especially as they had but one night to devote to the dis cussion before they adjourned for the recess. Hon. members bad motions on the paper for to-morrow which would prevent the debate being resumed that evening. Under all the circumstances he thought it would be the best course to pursue further proceeding with the bill until after Easter. If the delay be suggested was agreed to, no doubt a compromise might be come to by both sides of the house, which would secure the passing of the bill. • . . . . . Mr. AYRTON thought the house ought to proceed with the discussion ou the bill without the slightest delay, and the best way to make progress was to hive a practical debate on the subject.' If any delay took place the people of the catiutry would think the House of Commons had enterzel on the matter for the purpose of burking the question of reform. He thought the house ought not to separate until it had expressed its opinion upon the first proposition in the bill. Mr. B. COCHRANE said his motion for to-morrow was an important one with respect to Spain, and he could not consent to its postponement. Mr. GLADSTONE said the noble lord the member for Chester had made a well-intentioned, but a very ill timed, suggestion. There was no rule which could not. be sat aside which prevented the house sitting up to Easter. They had already been assembled nearly three months, tion postpone gs d tipl y tol o yn t t at h nh e de cil h d e: : d e s hopeeif Reformt the iemeasu rees h e a d w e a luv d lh v di a . cn e n h c e th cl ,el de b n u asl t erne v at e d r t y y . of been too long delayed. (Hear, hear.) Mr. CLAY thought the Bribery Bill ought, at all events, to be settled before a dissolution took place. Rumour; wore rife of a dissolution, but he hoped that it would not take place before the bill of the Government was passed. Ma. MILL said, although he attached the highest im portance to his amendment, yet he would postpone it rather than allow it to stand in the way of the progress of the bill. Ho thought it would . be disgraceful if the house delayed, by any means, the progress of the Reform Bill. He did not see why the house could not sit next week. (Hear, hear.) Mr. HENLEY said the right hon. gentleman the mem ber for South Lancashire had so often varied his amend ments that no one knew what he really meant. He did not see why the bill should not be carried forward as speedily as possible. Mr. OSBORNE said the house bad become somewhat used to these sudden surprises. (Laughter.) They were constantly springing mines — (hear, hear)-around him was full of mines. ( Hear, bear, and laughter.) -the ground He did not see why they should pay any attention to the recommendation of the noble lord, the member for Chester, who was in collusion with the other side of the house. (Hear, bear, and cheers.) Ile hoped the house would not appear in the disgraceful position in which the noble earl wished to place it. The noble earl had done more than any man to cut away Reform—(hear, hear) — and he hoped the house would insist on the subject being carried forward, as it would bring out the sham Re formers end set them plainly before the country. (Hear, hear.) Lord ELCHO supported the proposal for postpone ment; and with respect to Reform, he was not ashamed to say ho was in favour of it. Mr. BRIGHT thought that one night would be quite sufficient to settle the question of the borough franchise. There bad been some talk of a compromise, but when then were all gone home who was to do it? (Hear, hear, and laughter.) Wee the noble lord the member for Chester to do it. (Hear, hear, and laughter.) Was he to prepare something uew, which would be acceptable to all parties. (Hear, hear, and laughter.) He hoped the house would not consent to postponement until they had at least one pout • t settled, which was the vary heart of the bill, which either made it acceptable to the public, or put it beneath contempt. The discussion ought to go on, and he did not see why they could not sit, if it became necessary, all next week. (Hear, hear.) Mr. WHITBREAD hoped the noble earl would with draw his motion, in order that the debate might proceed. (Cries of "Divide, divide.") Sir R. KNIGHTLEY was in favour of postponement, in order that members voting on ono particular point in the bill might not appear in a false light before the country until the whole of the provisions of the bill were discussed. Mr. HUBBARD deprecated a discussion about Spain in the midst of a sttlement of the question of Reform. Mr. NEWDEGATE thought it would be impossible to settle the great question of Reform in ono night. He was not in favour of the whole bill ; and at the proper time he should call the attention of the house to that part of it with respect to the distribution of seats, because the bill of the late Government conferred greater advantages on the country than those iu the bill with which they were about to proceed. Sir G. GREY asked whether the hon. member for Honitou brought forward the subject of Spain with the authority of the Government. Lord STANLEY said he had sought to dissuade the hon. member from doing so. He had laid all the papers on the table, and therefore ha had very little to say. Fur his own part lie should have preferred if his hen. friend had performed his motion. Sir R. .IsALM.EII, said he had studied the papers on Spain, and he felt he could not state fully to the Reuse of Commons his views of the matter in the present position of matters between this country and that of Spain. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER thought the 'question ought to be decided by the house, butis own . opinion was, that it was expe dient to proceed with the laughter)—the g t denied er)— t t h h e m e eetb assertion erfor of No that tfs t s h i n a c t e r t e h e l e n f eobrnl etcl-rd(lotlae member for Chester was in collusion with her Majesty's Government. He also denied that lie had stated that he was disinclined to admit of any amendment. On the contrary he stated that he was ready and willing to accept every im provement which was not in opposition to the main prin ciple of the bill. The amendments of the right hon. gentlemen the member for South Lancashire were, in fact, suppression of the entire bill, - anti therefore he ebuld not accept them. It was a mistake altogether to call the amendments. They were, in fact, a counter bill. EarI,GROSVENOR then withdrew his motion for the postponement of the debate. [ LEFT SIT7ING..I BANK OF FRANCE.

The Jews' Hospital, Mile-end, one of the oldest charitable institutions of the Jews in England, having been founded in 1807, was established as an asylum for the aged, and for the education, main tenance, and teaching handicrafts to youths of both sexes. Besides the successful training of several hundred youths for various handicraft trades,, this charity has the merit of having been the first Jewish establishment in England which supplied ministers of religion. Pupil teacherz have been instructed in the highest branches of sacred and secular educa tion, in preparation for the pulpit and the school ; and female pupil teachers, capable of undertaking the responsible duties of Jewish governesses, are also in course of training within the establish ment. The dilapidated state of the buildings, not originally intended for their present purposes, in duced the committee some few years since to recom mend to the general body of governors and sub scribers that a new and more commodious edifice be erected.. For this purpose Mr. Henry Moss offered to present the institution with ten acres of land ; the site, however, having been found incon venient, was not accepted. Mr. and Mrs. Bar tlett Meyers then presented the institution with eight acres of land at Lower Norwood, the site of the present buildiag. The numbers at present receiving the benefits of the institution—are 12 old men and women, 33 girls in the school, and 89 boys, of whom 29 are apprenticed to various trades, while other former inmates, having com pleted their apprenticeship, are now working as journeymen. The annual dinner was held last evening at the London Tavern, Mr. Julian G9ldsuiid, M.P., in the chair, the com pany present including many of the chief members of the Jewish community. The chair man, in proposing the toast of the evening, dwelt upon the exceptional character of the institution in providing at once for the support of the young and the aged. He appealed to those present for assist ance in liquidating the debt, which amounted to nearly £B,OOO, and which had been incurred in a benevolent zeal, with which the liberality of the public had not, unfortunately, kept pace. He re gretted that the liabilities which had been incurred would necessitate the selling of some portion of the stock standing in the name of the institution, and possibly in the reduction of the number of inmates, and be expressed a hope that the Jewish community would prevent the necessity of adopting either course. Subscriptions to between £1,300 and £1,400 were handed in to the treasurer during the course of the evening. THE SEE OF ROCHESTER.—The Earl of Derby has intimated to persons interested in the matter that in any appointment that may be made to the vacant bishopric there will be a condition that the bishop shall consent to the proposed arrangement (in case it should be sanctioned by Parliament) for a subdivision of the diocese by the erection of a new see of St. Albans, as provided for by Lord Lyttel ton's Bill, now under the consideration of the House of Lords.—Pall Mall Gazette.. PROCEEDINGS IN OUTLAWRY. —At the Judges' Chambers on Tuesday, before Mr. Baron Martin, an appli cation was made is the case of Colglinar v. Ames for the discharge of the defendant, on the ground that he was pro tected by an order in bankruptcy when he surrendered under protest at. the Sheriffs' Court in an o utlawry pro ceeding. His lordship o rdered the discharge on payment of the money into co. - at, the point to be raised before the Court next term. GENERAL GARIBALDI—A private letter from San Fiorauo, near Codoguo, states that Gen. Garibaldi ,till sojourns there, as the guest of the Marquis Pallavi ciao, in the company of his oldest son Menotti, his daugh ter Theresa, and a few friends. The general passes the greater part of the day in the gardens, and his health is hourly improving. Deputations from all parts of the coun try wait upon him, the volunteers of Codogno having lately presented him with an address, in which they de clare their willingness to "expel from Rome the wolves that infest the Campidoglio," and sty that they recognise in bins " the liberator of Sicily and Naples, the new Cin cinnatus, the achiever of the unity of Italy." In his reply Garibaldi said that young Italians should always have iu their remembrance those martyrs of liberty who have preceded them, and without whose eample, their words and their actions, we should never have learnt that it is better to die the death of the free than to live the life of the enslaved. T he g eneral proceeded to say, I have been most fortunate in many circumstances of my life. but not in ell; for instan ce, in 18-19, after I had fought W for ltaiian land at Rome and San Martino, unsuccessfully, in eans.) of the apathy and' i ndifference of thz: population those days, 1 e mbarked with a few coN mpanions in 13 small s, my o wn being the smallest. ine out of these 13 boat bums were taken by the Aus trians after a furious cannon ade.
