w (nded% tiro Lards Jtutioes of Appeal.) IN ma LANoIfEAD'S TRUSTS.—JUDGMENT. The Lords Justices gave judgment this morning on this case, which came before them upon appeal from the decision of the Master of the Rolls, approving of an agreement that had been entered into among the parties, who had carried on the business of brewers, for the final settlement of all suits and subjects in contest. Their lordships agreed with the decision of the Court below, and ordered the appeal to be discharged with costs. The Court then proceeded to hear lunatic petitions. IN RE FERGUS O'CONNOR, LATE ILP. FOR NOTTINGHAM, A. LUNATIC-THE NATIONAL LAND COMPANY This was a petition presented by parties who are the purchasers of part of land in Worcestershire, which bad been conveyed to Mr. O'Connor, during the existence of the scheme for the formation of the National Land Com pany, and the object of the petition was, that by the order of the Court the official manager of the National Land Company might be ordered to convey the estate to the petitioners in the . place of Mr. O'Connor. The Lord Justice Turner inquired whether a cone mittee had been appointed of the person and estate of the lunatic The counsel for the petitioner stated that no such ap pointment had taken place, and that such was the pre carious state of Mr. O'Connor's health that it was very doubtful if ever a committee would be appointed. .. - Their lordships made the order as prayed, and directed the costs to be paid out of the estate of the National Land Company, and not out of the private estate of Mr. O'Connor, the lunatic. ROLLS COURT. SMITH V. ARMSTRONG.-JUDGMENT. The Master of the Rolls gave judgment this morning in this case, which came before him a short time since upon motion, and also on the certificate of the chief clerk. The question in the case was what were the intentions of the testator in the cause, Mr. Jas. Arm strong, when he used the following words in his will : " I forgive my neikew, Jacob Appleford, the debt of 2,0001., money lent him ; and I also forgive him the principal sum of 250/., for which I held two bills from him." The testator had been in partnership with the plaintiff, Smith, and upon his retiring his nephew, Jacob Appleford, joined the firm, to whom the testator lent 7,0001., in order to enable them to carry on the . concern with vigour. Of that 7,0001. 1,0001. was paid off, the debt due therefore to the estate of the testator was 6,0001. Smith's interest in the partnership was two-thirds, and Jacob Appleford's one-third ; and the principal question in the case was, whether as his nephew's debt to him from the partnership, according to his share in it being 2,0001., he intended to exonerate him from that debt or to make him an absolute gift of 2,000/, His Honour was of opinion that the words of the will made the 2,0001. an absolute gift, which the testator could not recall, and that his intention was that his nephew should be excused from paying his part of the - 6,000/. The certificate, therefore, of the Chief Clerk must be affirmed, and a decree made to that effect, without costs. (Before Vice-Chancellor Wood.) RIDER V. WOOD.-JUDGIIENT. lliS honour gave judgment in this case, in which the principal question was whether a decree of copyhold was good. The court held that it was, and decreed ac cordingly.

The Moniteur of yesterday publishes the following correspondence The Minister of Marine has received the following despatches from Rear-Admiral Penaud, commander of the squadron in the Baltic : " On board the Tourville, off Cronstadt, Juno 30. " Sir,—Yesterday a steamer left Cronstadt with a flag of truce ; it steered for the allied fleet anchored in the pas sage south of the Tolboukin. As soon as it came near the squadron anchored north of Cronstadt, a boat from the Duke of Wellington pulled alongside, and brought a Rus sian officer on board the English Admiral's ship. A few moments afterwards Admiral Dundas came on board the Tourville, to communicate to me the despatch he had re ceived, informing me that he had thought it was addressed to him personally, but that it concerned the vessels of both nations. " In this despatch, a copy of which I have the honour to enclose to your Excellency, the Minister of War of the Emperor of Russia declares that, toprevent the misunder standings to which the use made of flags of truce by the English navy might give rise, the vessels of the allied squadrons will only be allowed to communicate with the Russian authorities in the Baltic on three points—namely, Cronstadt, Sweaborg, and Revel. " The commander cf the English squadron having asked me what I thought of the contents of this despatch, I replied that, first of all, it seemed to me that the Minis ter of War at St. Petersburg ought to have mentioned when the English abused a flag of truce as that is the pre text made use of by the Russian Government to limit and restrict the communication hitherto in use between the belligerent Powers. I added that the measure notified might give rise to very serious inconveniences, and that it might be feared that it might increase the evils of war ; that, at all events, I thought it advisable to make the Russian Government understand that we threw upon it the whole responsibility of any evils that might arise there from. " This morning I went on board the Duke of Welling ton, to concert with Admiral Dundas the reply that should be sent. That officer sent me a draught of a reply in the afternoon, which I approved by a letter, of which I also send a copy to your Excellency. In the evening Admiral Dundas sent the reply to Cronstadt under a flag of truce. " I am, Sac., " Admiral PENATJD.' " T e following is a translation of the letter addressed to Admiral Dundas by the Russian Minister of War : " St. Petersburg, June id (28). " Sir,—With a view to preventing misunderstandings to which the use of flags of truce made by the English might give rise, I am charged by the Imperial government to inform you of the resolution it has adopted regarding communications which the Anglo-French fleet in the Bal tic may think to address to us. " Flags of truce will only be received on three points —namely, Cronstadt, Sweaborg, and Revel. " Vessels bearing a flag of truce must hoist a white flag of large dimensions, and cast anchor beyond long range, and wait until a boat goes alongside to receive a written message from them. " ' I must inform you, M. l'Admiral, that the Imperial Government has resolved not to recognise a flag of truce on any other point than those abovementioned or without the strict adhesion to the rules herein laid down. " I shall fed much obliged to you to make me acquainted with the regulations you may think fit to establish on your side as regards the communications we may think it advis able to send, under flag of truce, to the allied squadrons. " I am, &c., " Prince BASILE DOLGOROTTKI. " Minister of War.' "To the above Admiral Dundas sent the following reply : " To his Excellency Prince Dolgorouki, Minister of War of his Majesty the Emperor of Russia. " On board her Majesty's ship Duke of Wellington, at anchor five miles N.N.E. of Tolbonkin Lighthouse, June 30. have tho honour to acknowledge tho receipt of the letter you addressed to mo under date of tho 28th inst., to inform me that, with a view to prevent any mis understanding with regard to the use hitherto made by the British navy o f fl ags o f truce, the Government of his Ma jesty the Emperor of Russia has thought fit to assign cer tain limits to communications of this description which the allied squadrons of France and England might find it advisable to address to it. " You also ask me to make it known to you what re gulations I may think it necessary to establish for the re ceipt of similar communications which the Russian Go vernment may have to make to the allied fleets. " 'I take the liberty of informing you that I am ignor ant of the circumstances with respect to the conduct of my officers which may have given rise to restriction of communications by flags of truce as hitherto practised in the present war. lam perfectly aware that it is custom ary to hoist a white flag of sufficient size, and I also admit the necessity of not approaching within range of the guns of a fortress without permission, or nearer any other point than may be necessary to attract attention ; but the time and place where such communications, under a flag of truce, may be thought indispensable depend upon the cir cumstances of each individual case. I admit, without reserve, that in most cases it is more suitable to send a flag of truce to a sp o t w h ere it i s lik e l y t o meet with an officer of rank; and that, moreover, no advantage should be taken of such suspension of hostilities to accomplish, without danger, acts which could not have been done dur ing actual hostilities. (Thornhill to meet it, and am greatly disappointed to find tbat the bearer only brings in letters from Turkish prisoners, TUESDAY, Junl 12. About midnight I accompany Colonel Lake to visit the sentries, and find the men wakeful and vigilant, the officers, as usual, sleepy, and ignorant of their duties. rue Russian army is receiving reinforcements from Akelkelek, and has retired a few hours from its former position. We hear with delight that Riza Pasha, that most corrupt Minister of War, has lost his place. WEDNESDAY, JUNE 13. We ride round the works shortly alter midnight, to keep up the vigilance of the sentries. Reinforcements are said to be on their way from Bitlis under Mehemed Cavakli Pasha. Khurschid, Bey of Hinuis, is said to be on the road to Kars with 500 Bashi-Bazouks. The commander of the army at Batoum declines to send us reinforcements, as he is menaced by the Rus sians. Ardahan is occupied without resistance by the Russian division. THURSDAY, JUNE 14. I visited the sentries at 1 a.m. with Colonel Lake, after which we ride out to inspect the outposts. It was quite dark when we started, and scarcely showed signs of morning, when, after an hour's quiet riding, we reached the spot where they were usually to be found. We see no one, so we despatch two orderlies in advance to reconnoitre. They return, and report that our.ca valry pickets are about three miles ahead. 'We advance, and the dawn was just breaking as we came upon about 200 of our regul ars an d about 100 Bashi-Bazunks—the latter a good deal in advance, crowning the ridges of an undulating, uneven country. We inquire the where abouts of the Russian camp, and ride further on to take a peep. While thus reconnoitring I observe in the still imperfect light a large mass of cavalry apparently ad vancing, so we quietly retire on our pickets. After this body has disappeared for a time, I observe it closer, evidently advancing, and at a further distance two other regiments on the right and left, advancing in support. Our small handful of ill armed ragged regulars com mence a retreat at a trot and canter. The enemy sinks out of sight in a valley, presently emerges within rifle shot, and comes on at full charge. Oar Basins yell, fir 3 their pistols, and scamper off ; our regulars follow their example, and bolt like a flock of sheep. The Rus sians come on at a killing pace, and come up with us just as we plunge down a hill strewn with rocks. The crash of a volley of carbines, the rattle of hoofs, the blinding mud flung into my face from the hoofs of the panic-stricken cavalry, gave me a taste of the excitement of war, but in its most disagreeable form. Our fellows were soon overtaken, and when the Russians had chased us to nearly within the range of our guns the road pre sented melancholy traces of the thrashing we had got, in the dead and dying, and clothes and accoutrements, strewn along it. Some of the cuts received fronr the Russian sabres were perfectly frightful ; the Bashi-Bazouks suffered the most. Our outposts have not yet ventured again so near those of the enemy. Our cavalry are armed with sabres little longer than carving knives, and carbines of the most antiquated flint and steel pattern. With these arms it is not surnrising that they should be no match for the well-armed and well-mounted Muscovites. The Russian cavalry retreated in good order, followed by the Bashi-Bazouks, who took heart of grace, and tried to harrass and frighten them by yelling, flourishing their spears, and firing at a very safe distance. FRIDAY, JUNE 15. This day passes very tranquilly; no news of import ance from the outposts. The Mussulmans are preparing for the rejoicing of the Bairam. The long and painfu fast of the Ramazan is over. SATURDAY, JUNE H. The whole population is seen dressed in the gayest costumes, each man saluting his neighbour on the cm ' casion of the Bairam. About 7 o'clock a.m. a norsemar arrives from the outposts. "bloody with spurring, fiery red with haste." He reports that the Rus sians have struck their tents, and are advancing. The alarm is raised, and the soldiers march to their posts. The gaily-dressed citizens buckle on their cart ridge pouches and shoulder their muskets, while the women crowd on the housetops, wringing their hands and crying "Amen, amen!" In a very short time each man is at his post, wren, looking out from the battle ments, we see the dark masses of the enemy steadily ad vancing over a broad plain of rich meadow land, covered with brilliant coloured flowers. As they approach a beautiful and living panorama is before us ; the enemy throw out their Cossack and Georgian skirmishers, con sisting of irregular cavalry. These are met by our own Bashi•Bazouks, and a series of tournaments occur in the grassy space intervening between the masses of advanc ing troops and the dank lines of breastworks. Two or three regiments of cavalry, regular and irregular, now advance from the RuiEian lines, and, after a trot of a mile or two, charge our retreating squadrons of cavalry. The rout of the latter is complete, but the Bashis fight admirably while retirin R., when puffs; of dense white smoke issue from the I(aradagh and Hafiz Batteries, and the balls aro seen to ;lough into the Russian masses. The enemy's guns are no•w brought up, but their balls glance harmlessly from the dense earthen embankments. The horsemen of both sides are mingled and rush for the entrance, but the Cossacks fall under the deadly fire of the batteries, while the few on whom the great guns cannot play are singled out by our riflemen, or fall under the gallant charges of our irregulars. The attempt to rush into our works with. the retreating cavalry has failed. After an hour's cannonading and skirmish ing the enemy retires, while this repulse raises the spirits of our garrison to a height of enthusi asm. The cunning Russitns had chosen for their attack the very day, the first of the Bairarn, and the very hour, about 9 a.m., when the Turks deliver themselves up to idleness and rejoicing, and when every thing in the shape of duty is neglected. Fortunately their propinquity for the last few days had kept us all in a constant state of vigilamce. Our loss to-day has been trifling —perhaps 20, chiefly cavalry, while that of the enemy can scarcely have be to less than 100. We are awaitin4 en attack: to-night. SUNDAY, JUNE 17. Our inspection of the sentries to-night is highly satis factory ; everyman and offices is on the alert, and a large force is under arms all night_ We learn that the attack. ing force of yesterday was 2,7;,000 men—a force certainly insufficient to take pars. A spy tells us that another attack of a much more serious description is arranged for to-morrow. We are all in high spirits, and quite ready for any amount of Muscovites. The enemy has retired to their old encampment. We learn that they brought three days' provisions with them yesterday. The Armenians of Van are said to be in a state of re volt, in consequence of the gross insults of the Pasha to their bishop. A large number have crossed the Russian frontier. "By informing we that on the whole extens of the Russian territory from Tornea to Libau flags of trues are limited to the three points you have mentioned, you vir tually increase the evils of war, and deprive both parties of those means of correspondence necessary even between enemies. "' I regret that - w - hc-n such a notification was made to me no fact was mentioned which might have led me to make an inquiry- into the conduct of those accused, and I am quite ready to ins - Mint° an inquiry into tho conduct Of any officer pointed out , to me as having violated a flag of truce.

" The Monitett). also publishes . t despatch from Vice- Admiral Bruat, dated on board the Montebello, 25th of June, stating that after the pillage of the Kertch Museum by the Tartar populatio, 2, and by marauders of the three armies, more especi, ttly by Turits, some urns and basso-relievers bad bee, t sent can board the Pomona by the Commander of the .P 1 degeto.a. Admiral Bruat requests instructions as to what he is t o do with these objects, which are of little vale e. The chief ob jects of antiqui.ty and the medals had already been sent long since to S.

The reinforcements of Mehemed Cavakli Pasha are recalled, in consequence of the revolt of the Montefih Arabs near Bagdad. About 2,000 foot irregulars, first-rate riflemen, from the Luzi Mountains', aze expected shortly to reinforce our garrison. ANOTHER ATTEMPT TO ENCLOSE HAMPSTEAD-HEATH. A hill entitled "An Act to Facilitate Leases and Sales of Settled Estates" has passed the Lords, and stands this night for a second reading in the House of Commons. The of of this bill is ostensibly to en able tenants for life of settled estates to obtain powers of lease and sale. It is, of course, a public bill, and pro ceeds on the colourable ground that, while the expense of Parliamentary proceeding& is so great, it is but rea sonable that tenants for life should be enabled to pro cure necessary powers from some more economical tri bunal, this tribunal being the, Court of Chancery. On looking through the clauses of the bill one is not at first sight at all inclined to quarrel with its provi sions, which read like those of any similar act. Com mon sense, however, and common equity would sug gest that this bill must not be made a mere cloak for objectionable applications. Care must be taken—as KARS, JUNE S. this bill professes merely to deal with matters of This morning General Williams, with his staff, entt Ta form—that such petitions a& would not upon equitable the garrison.

OF THE LATE MARQUIS OF TIIOMOND,— FUNVIA 'emn ins of this distinguished officer and The morthl 1 d nobleman were deposited in the cata deeply-lamente vioueo Church, Walcot, Bath, on Tues. combs of St. SA day last. of Mr. easesase-e ther the people are Mill to enjoy the general and eel. looted responsibility of Ministers of the Crown, which hitherto line been the retlutfiry n,kid eol3.oo,ltjitto - t1 prim tine to expect. Sir, the ilobie lord seemed to demur to an observation of mine just now— be seemed to express his incredulity at my statement, that it had been his in tention to go into Committee of Supply on Friday night. Well, suppose it was not his intention, I se-' it was the duty of the noble lord to go into Committee of Supply. All I can say is I received authentic information— it Was known to many gent!einen on both sides that the Government would go into Committee of Supply on Friday night. (Hear, hear.) But if that was not the intention of the noble lord, 1 say—after the notice of my lion. friend—he should have said, "We will give the earliest opportunity for testing the opinion of the House of Commons upon a question of this kind." (Hear.) Heretofore it has been the invariable custom of the Ministers, when the confidence of the house hi their policy has been questioned, to bring the matter as speedily as possible to an issue. But let the house con sider the peculiar circumstances under which the ques tion of confidence in the Government, as at present con stituted, was to be brought forward by my hon. friend. It is not merely England, but it is Europe, that is watching anxiously for the discussion now impending. (Hear, hear.) I should have- thought that the noble lord would seize the earliest opportunity to settle a ques tion so important, and would not have remained with the energies of the Government paralysed, and the cha racter of the Government impaired, by a motion of this gravity impending over him. It is the general feeling of the country, and, I may say, without prejudging the issue of the discussion, of the house also, that upon this subject on early, an immediate, and, I will add, a com plete discussion ought to take place. (Hear.) Now, sir, what does the noble lord say to-night ? lie says, "Here are some papers which ought to be placed on the table, and which ought to be read by hon. mem bers before they venture to express any opinions upon the motion of the hon. member for Hertfordshire." Well, I must say, with my views of the question at issue, that it is one that can be but little affected by any papers which can be laid upon the table. We have something more authentic than any diplomatic documents to guide our judgments on the present occasion. We have the most authentic evidence in the world. We have the speech of a Cabinet Minister, the principal actor on the scene ; and it is on his own confession, on his own reve lations, on his own evidence, that I am perfectly prepared to form my opinion and to give my vote. Ne doubt, if the Minister rose and said that he thought it would be more consonant with the spirit of justice of a free people —and which I hope will ever pervade the discussions of this house—not to proceed with the debate tohnorrew, the house would have assented to his proposal. I should not have raised any objection to the course he pro posed if he had acted with frankness, and said he would allow the discussion to come on upon Monday ; or if he had said, " When you have digested these papers I shall be prepared to give you a day." Did the noble lord say that ! (Hear.) No ; the noble lord stated that in the course of next week, perhaps, the hon. gentleman might find an opportunity to bring his motion forward. (No, no, from the Ministerial benches, and cheers.) I appeal to the house if it was not so. (Cheers.) Did the noble lord say that he would go into committee of supply on Monday ? (Hear.) Not a word of it ; and I dare say he intended to take the Scotch Education Bill on that day, or, if not then, to conclude the debate on Limited Liability, and perhaps take a vote upon that all-interest ing subject. (Laughter and cheers.) If the noble lord says that on Monday he will go into committee of sup ply, so that my hon. friend may then bring forward his motion, and so that see may have a full discussion on this important subject, of course I shall not trouble the house with the motion which I have placed upon the paper. (Hear, hear.) Whatever I may think of the influence of these documents upon our opinion, it will be quite enough for such an intimation to come from a person in the position of the noble lord to induce me to accede to it. But at the same time I say that it ought to be coupled with a clear intimation from the noble lord of the time when the discussion will take place. If the noble lord had risen to state that on Monday the discus sion would take place, all that I should have done would be to ask the permission of the house not to press the motion of which I have given notice this evening. Of course I shall persevere with that motion, and shall ask the opinion of the house upon it unless I obtain from the noble lord that which I am sure hon. gentlemen on both sides of the house expect—namely, an intimation that hon, members will receive these papers to-morrow, and that he will on Monday next either give my hon. friend a day on which to being forward his motion, or go into Committee of Supply- a n d a ll ow hi m to fulfil his original intention. (Cheers.) Lord PALMERSTON—ReaIIy, Sir, theright hon. gen tleman has made "much ado about nothing." (Laughter and cheers.) In the first place, with regard to what passed upon a former occasion, I am not aware that my hon. friend fixed the Committee of Supply to take place on Friday otherwise than in the way in which the Com mittee of Supply is always postponed as a matter of course, from one Supply day to another. But this I will say, that if I had fixed the Committee of Supply for Friday, seeing the condition in which the house is placed with regard to the motion of the hon. baronet, seeing that the papers, with all the efforts that have been made to expedite them, could not be. laid upon the table till to-night, and that they would not be in the hands of hon. members till to-morrow, I should have pursued in regard to the Committee of Supply the same course which I announced my intention of pursuing with regard to the motion of the right hon, gentleman i —namely, I should have postponed the Committee of Supply, as I intended to oppose the motion, for the special and avowed purpose of deferring the 'discussion of the question until the papers had been in the posses sion of hon. members in time to enable them to read them. Ido not shrink from the avowal that T should have taken that course if it had been necessary for me to do so. But, Sir, the right hon, gentleman, as I have al ready said before, makes " much ado about nothing" be cause what I stated was this—l stated my objection to take a discussion to-morrow cn the motion of the i ion. baronet the member for Hertfordshire, and also the Iva son why I entertained the objection ; but I said that aft . er to-morrow I should throw no difficulty in the way of an y arrangement which the hon. baronet might make. Well, Sir, the right hon, gentleman objects to the totunt as not including the pars. Why, if I gave the lion. gentleman a whole week, surely) gave him Monday, if Monday would suit him. It was not for me to settle matters between the hon. baronet the member for Hertfordshire (Sir E. B. Lytton) and the hon. and learned gentleman the member for Sheffield (Mr. Roebuck), who has a notice upon the paper for the next day. (Hear, and cheers) I think it would have been very unbecoming for me to fix a posi tive day for the discussion of a motion which might last probably more than one day. I thought that it would be best not to interfere with the motions of hon. members, and I left them to make their own arrangements. At the same time I am perfectly prepared to say that if the hon. baronet wishes to make his motion on Monday, on Mon day I will move the committee of supply. (Cheers.) I have no wish to shrink from the discussion, and I have nothing whatever to gain from postponing it. (Hear.) I quite understand, and I am sure the house will under stand, that the right hon. ,gentleman the member for Buckinghamshire, basing found that several motions of censure and want of confidence in her Majesty's Go vernment had failed, in •consequence of the house un derstanding the subject that was to be discussed, was desirous of hurrying on the motion of the hon. baronet before hon. members had mace themselves properly acquainted with the question. (" Oh, oh. !" arid laughter.) It was a perfectly legitimate tactic on the part of the right hon. gentleman, and the house will quite comprehend it. It shows exactly the right bon. gentleman's appreciation of the case which he has to urge, inasmuch as he feels the great importance of enabling the house to come to a decision upon the sub ject before they kno w anything of the real matter under discussion. (Laughter and cheers.) I have now only one word more to add with regard to the remarks of the right hon. gentleman with respect to what has fallen from my noble friend (Lord J. Russell). The right hon. gentleman is not satisfied with the remarks of my noble friend as to the If tatement which he had made on a former occasion, respecting a decision of the Cabinet, but he seems to think that in stating generally that a certain proposition was considered and not adopted my noble friend forgot his duty as a Privy Councillor. Why, seldom a week passes in this house that some member does not get up in his place and ask her Ma jesty's Government whether they will agree to certain things, or whether they have adopted a certain measure. It is absolutely necessary that we should state what the de cisions of the Government are ; but I never before hoard any member pretend to say that the announcement in public, re either iu this ho use or elsewhere, of the decision of the Government upon any given proposition was a de parture from the duty of a Privy Councillor. It would be perfectly impossible to carry on the business of this house in a manner satisfactory to the house and to the public, if the members of the Government were never to be allowed to state what was the general decision of the Government upon any question which might be brought before them. At present I shall not enter into any further details, but I hope that I have satisfied the right hon. gentleman that ho and his hon. friend may have Monday to do what they please with it, and that the hon. baronet will meet with no obstruction in bringing forward his motion. IMPERIAL PA RIA.AiI ENT, nousn OF COMMONS-(YESTERDAY.) THE AUSTRIAN PROPOSALS. SIR B. LYTTON'S MOTION. LORD JOHN RUSSELL'S STATEMENT. Lord PALMERSTON - laid upon the table some papers by command of her Majesty, on the subject of the recent negotiations at Vienna. The noble lord said —I may be allowed to take this opportunity of advert ing to the motion of the right hon. member for Bucks (Mr. Disraeli), for this evening, that to-morrow the " orders of the day" should be postponed, for the pur pose of enabling the hon. baronet the member for Herts to bring on his motion. To that motion her Majesty's Government will object for this reason, that the papers now laid upon the table are such that they should be read by lion, members before coming to the discussion of that motion. After to-morrow the Government would offer no objection whatever to the bringing for ward of the motion. Lord J. RUSSELL—I will, with the permission of the house, take occasion to refer to a question which I understand was put in my absence by the right hon. member for Bucks, as to whether I had obtained her Majesty's consent to the statement which I made with respect to the proceedings in the Cabinet of which lam a member. What I had stated with respect to the Cabinet was either what was perfectly well known, or might have been inferred by any one who had followed the course of recent events. Count Buol had thought proper to issue a circular, which appeared in the public papers, in which he referred to a confidential communi cation with M. Drouyn de l'Huys and myself. I stated that the communication of the Austrian Government had been considered by her Majesty's advisers. I be lieve that no one could suppose that, seeing in the pub lic papers that the Austrian Government had made a proposition with a view to put an end to hostilities or to take part in the war, that the English Government would have refused altogether to look into or consider those propositions. _I stated further that upon a full considera tion these propositions had not been assented to. I con ceive that must have been a fact of which every one must have been aware, because if early in May any propo sition of the kind had been assented to there would have been further communication with Russia, or further conferences, and that fact would have been notorious to the world. So that in effect there was nothing in what I stated upon that subject which seemed to me to require that I should ask the assent of her Majesty to the state ment which I made. As the right hon. gentleman has raised the subject, I have submitted the question to her Majesty, who has been graciously pleased to sanction the statement which I made. I maybe, perhaps, allowed to say that with respect to what I stated on a former night, souse very erroneous inferences have been drawn from what I said. I thought it necessary, as so much bad been published, to make a statement of what the Austrian propositions really were, and what was my opinion with respect to them. It has been inferred from what I then stated, that because I said at the end of April or the first day of May that I thought those propositions might have been accepted, that I think now these propositions might form a basis for peace. Such a proposition would be totally erroneous, and it is entirely contrary to the facts to suppose that I consider now that these propositions would form any satisfactory basis for peace. It was my opinion at the time, as I stated the other day, and I re tain the opinion as to what might have been then a satis factory proposition. But I believe now that nothing but a vigorous prosecution of the war will obtain terms upon which a satisfactory peace can be secured. (Hear, hear, and ironical cheers.) Mr. DISRAELI—Sir, it occurs to me that since the First Minister of the Crown has not thought it fit to name any day for the discussion of the motion proposed by the Hon member for Herts, it would have been more convenient if his noble colleague had not made the state ment which he has made upon the subject of the length ened narrative with which be favoured the house on Fri day night last, which has so greatly disquieted the coun try. Ido not think that the statement which the noble lord has made has at all changed his situation with re spect to the house, as regards the narrative which he delivered on the night to which I have referred. I did not, nor did any one else, on Friday night maintain that in consequence of the speech of the noble lord he was at this moment of opinion that peace ought to be nego tiated with Russia upon the basis of the proposition which he had disapproved on Friday ; that was a point which was not the least brought into consideration ; but the point which startled the house, and, I think I may say, greatly disquieted the public mind in this country, is that it came out, not by hazard, but from a statement formally and definitely given, and in a manner well ma tured on the part of the noble lord, that he had returned to Englard with a project of pacification of which be ap proved, asd which neither the great majority of this house, nor of the country, either then, or at this time, or any other time, would sanction, and that ho had recommended that project to his colleagues, but in consequence of their refusal to adopt it he did feel that be was bound to consider whether it was not his duty to retire from the Government ; and, though influenced by their consideration he remained a member of that Administration, he shortly after wards came down to this house and made a speech which conveyed to the country that he was au un compromising advocate fur the continuance of the war. (Cheers.) Further, that he had returned from Vienna with the conviction that an uncompromising prosecution of the war was absolutely necessary, and conveying also to this house that he was convinced by his experience at the conferences that any attempt at negotiation with a reasonable hope of success was utterly impossible. By tide means he conveyed to the house and the country an impression that seems to me utterly inconsistent with the facts of the case. (Cheers.) Ido not think the state ment which he has made to the house this evening, that lie is really in favour of a vigorous prosecution of the war, will greatly reassure the daunted spirit of the nation. (Cheers.) I shall not make any observation with respect to the question which I was obliged to ad dress to him in his absence on Tuesday night—a question which I consider a most constitutional one. The noble lord has admitted that he had not the royal sanction to niche the communication with respect to what took place of which he informed the house. He seems to think that it was a mere matter of course what he then stated, that there were other ways of obtaining. the information which he then afforded the house. But after all, what was the information ? That there had been discussion and difference of opinion in the Cabinet —that in consequence of this discussion and this diffe rence of opinion upon the most important question of the age, he had even contemplated the necessity of ten dering his resignation ; that he was influenced by their consideration not to take that step. He now says we might have learned all this from the usual organs of in formation, and from the circulars of foreign ministers. However, I differ entirely with him, and I say that it is impossible for the house to have information on that state of affairs, had it no t b een f or t h e communica tion which I lave yet to learn he was authorised to make without having first obtained the gracious permission of her Majesty. (Cheers.) The noble lord at the head of the Government bas found fault with the notice of motion which I have placed upon the paper to-night, the object of which was to in sure for the motion of my hon. friend the member for Herts the opportunity and certainty of its being brought forward to-morrow night. What were the circumstances under w hick that notice was given ? It was on last Fri day the noble lord the Secretary for the Colonies made the speech which has created so painful a sensation in the country. My hon. friend anticipated the general feel ing of the house and of the country in his conviction that no time should be lost in ascertaining the opinion of the house with respect to the statements of one of the most important members of the Cabinet. We are at the pre sent moment involved in a war of magnitude, which de mands the exertion of our utmost energies, and on the part of the nation that firmness of spirit which can only result from having clear ideas of what is the convictio of those who are entrusted with the management of affairs, and who are called upon to use their utmost en deavours to carry into effect the policy which we sanc tion. The people of this country suddenly find that one of the most eminent members of the Cabinet, who some weeks ago was addressing the country through this house in tones which conveyed his conviction that the coun try was embarked in a great struggle, and that it was absolutely necessary to summon all their energies to the contest, they now find that on that very day, or a few days after, he had recommended to his colleagues to end this quarrel in a manner which, if it had been sanc tioned by the house, would show that there is no interest at stake which justified the immense sacrifices which we are now called upon to make. It becomes therefore in vitable that not a moment should be lost without the opinion of th• home being taken upon the position of the Government, as at present constituted, a direct vote being given as to whether the continuance of this coun- ell is satisfactory fur the country at a moment of such national exigency. (Cheers.) Now it happened that we heard from a member of the Administration the most competent to give proper information on the subject, that the house was to go into a committee of supply to-mor row. This was the earliest opportunity my hon. friend could command, it was the most constitutional one for bringing forward matters of grievance, for what na- tional grievance can be so great as that the country should be involved in a war of magnitude, conducted by Ministers who are not unanimous in opinion with re spect to the necessity of that war? (Loud cheers.) Well, my hon. friend gave his notice, and what then happened ? The noble lord the leader of the house in stantly changes the order of business for Friday—(hear) and, with the recollection of last Friday's debate still in his memory, and knowing, as every gentleman in this house knows, whatever his opinions may be, that no other subject than that has occupied the public mind since the notice of my hon. friend was given, the noble lord when asked, according to our forms, what business he would proceed with on Friday, says, with great com poi4ire, "The new Partnership Bill and the Limited Lia bility Bill." (Laughter.) These are the measures of deep and absorbing interest which are to be introduced to the consideration of the House of Commons at a mo ment when there is not a man walking the streets of London who is not asking, " What is to be the fate of my country if it is involved in a great war, and that war is to be prosecuted by a Cabinet which is not unanimous as to the necessity of the war ?" (Rear.) What is the Partnership Bill ? What the people of England want to know is the condition of the partner ship in Downing-street. (Hear, and laughter.) They want to know whether the principle of limited liability I is prevalent in that locality—(great laughter) —or whe- • Sir E. B. LYTTON—The noble lord has said tha my right hon. friend has made " much ado about no•t thing." laui not surprised at that, because in point of chronological order, I think "Much Ado about Nothing" comes just after "The Comedy of Errors." (Laughter.) I do not know in what degree the production of these papers, which in the opinion of the Government ought to be in the hands of hon. members before my motion is dis cussed, may lighten th e c h arge w hi c h it is my intention to bring against the noble lord, but I am extremely glad that they should be prcAluced before the discussion is entered into. It is not my wish, nor can jt be the wish of any man, that anything. unfair should be done towards the Government ; and if the production of these papers will save me from committing an error upon any single point I shall be happy to have them produced. (Hear.) Therefore, as far as I am concerned, I accept the expla nation of the noble lord, and I accept also the day which - the noble lord proposes. (Cheers.) Perhaps, however, he will allow rue to mention a suggestion which has been made to me,. that it would be more convenient and snore suited to the importance of the question if I were allowed to bring on the resolution as a substantive motion rather than upon going into committee of supply. Lord PALMERSTON—I have no objection. (Hear.) Sir E. B. LYTTON—Then I have nothing further to say, except that I accept the day which the noble lord has proposed. Sir J. WALSH was anxious that the subject should not drop before the ettelitleu of the house W 45 talloil to the eteileiNe dieerepaney that exieted litivni6t4 the Oftitn, meat of the noble lord Vale evenieg end that which ha bad made on a former occasion. In describing the sub. stance of Count Buol's circular, he (Sir J. Walsh) had at that time referred to the fact that Count Buol stated that be was prepared to submit an ultiigatum to Rus sia, founded on the proposals which he had laid before the noble lord ; that lie was prepared, if these proposals were adopted by England and France, to lay them be fore Russia in the shape of an eitiezetire, and to make it a cases belli if Russia should refuseto accept it; and that the noble lord gave his full adhesion and approval to these pro posals, end agreed to press their adoption upon his Govern ment with all the influence lie possessed. The noble lord, however, in the statement with which he had favoured the house to-night had entirely omitted to notice these material cireurestances which identified him personally, in the eyes of Europe, with the acceptance of these pro positions, and merely observed in a sort of cursory man ner, that of course, as a matter of courtesy to Austria, it followed that lie should not reject and refuse them ; that they were submitted on his return to the Cabinet, and that the Cabinet rejected them. Ho (Sir J. Walsh) thought the important point as regarded the noble lord was that, according to the statement of Count Buol, he had identified himself personally with the proposals which had been made ; that he had agreed to support and had given his whole adhesion to them ; and that, when lie had requested either to affirm or to deny the correct ness of Count Buol's statement, ho had acknowledged its accuracy in the most comprehensive terms. That was a most material difference, and he should be unwilling that the house, many members of which might have been ab sent when the noble lord replied to his question, should take their impression from the extremely slight and soft statement with which the noblelord had favoured the house this evening. Before he sat down he might address a few observations with reference to the two motions of which notice had been given. It was perfectly true, as had been suggested, that the motion of the hon. and learned gentleman the member for Sheffield and the hen. baronet the member for Hertfordshire were so similar in character that they involved the same considerations, and, no doubt, there would be some inconvenience if they were both pressed simultaneously on the attention of the House. It was very probable, considering the magnitude of the question and the importance and com prehensiveness of the subject which would be opened by I the motion of the hon. baronet, that the debate upon that motion would be adjourned. What was the pre sent position of the house with respect to this question of foreign policy ? His right lion, friend the member for Enclinghamshire brought forward his motion be fore Whitsuntide. That motion bore upon the state of things existing at that time ; there was an adjourned debate, Whitsuntide intervened, the negotiations were brought to a close, and all the important changes took place which resulted from the close of the conferences. The papers were `quite ready at that time to be sue mitted to the consideration of the house, and they ought to have been enabled to form a conclusion on the com plete state of things. The motion of the hon. member for Portsmouth was, therefore, nugatory, and conveyed no expression whatever of the real sentiments of the house upon this important question. Two quesCees would now be raised by the motion of the hon. baronet the member for Hertfordshire—first, a question involv ing the individual character of the noble lord the mem ber for the city of London as a statesman, and the claim which he would hereafter have on the confidence of the house and the country. Considering the import. ance of the position tilled by the noble lord in that house as well as in the country, that question was by no means a light one. (gear.) But there was another question not less important. It appeared clearly from the statements which had been made that there had been two parties in the Cabinet of the noble lord, one inclining to the acceptance of the last Austrian pro position and another against that acceptance. Ho pre sumed that, as those propositions had been rejected, the noble lord at the head of the Government had supported that side of the question. Still it was a most important question to decide whether he was right or wrong in re jecting those Austrian propositions and prosecuting the war. (Hear.) That was the real question of peace or war as it now stood before the house, and it was a sub ject of so large a nature, embracing so many considera tions, that he did n o t thi n k it could be determined in the course of one evening. He put it, therefore, to the hon. and learned gentleman the member for Sheffield whether it would not be desirable to make some arrangement by which his motion should not interfere with the progress of the debate on the motion to be brought forward by the hon. baronet the member for Hertfordshire ? Mr. ROEBUCK—The house will probably consider that I ought to make some statement after the appeal which has been made to me. (Hear.) I believe that the question about to be proposed by the hon. baronet the member for Hertfordshire is really one of the most important that can be submitted to the house. (Hear.) I think that the two questions ought not to be before the house at the same time; and, therefore, if the de bate should be adjourned on Monday I shall accede to the wish of the house and postpone the motion of which I have given notice. I have only one object in view, and I believe that I shall best attain my object by adopt ing that course. (Cheers.) Lord J. RUSSELL —After what the hon. baronet the member or Radnorshire has stated, I must say that nothing which I have said this evening is at all inconsist ent with the answer which I gave upon a former oc. Mr. HUTT inquired of the Government whether the circular of Count Buol was among the papers to be laid on the table of the house ? Lord PALMERSTON—I don't think that that cir cular is in the possession of her Majesty's Government. The papers were then ordered to be laid upon the table. EDUCATION (SCOTLAND) BILL. On the motion for the third reading of this bill, Sir J. FERGUSSON asked the indulgence of the house while ho made one effort more to defeat a measure the passing of which he should much deplore. The pre amble of the bill, in the first place, cast a slur upon the Church of Scotland, into whose charge the schools had been committed, which drew from its members a strenu ous opposition to the bill. It was to the efforts of the Church in Scotland that the successful education of the people was owing, and its members disapproved the mode of Government by a central board in Edinburgh, the religious qualifications of the members of which were not tested. If they could secure a certainty that the schools could be conducted upon Presbyterian prin ciples he might feel justified in withdrawing his opposi tion, but the most important powers were given to the leoard—the power of examining schoolmasters, of depri vration and censure, of forcing the ratepayers to erect sialsools, and of taxing them for their support. Such powers ought not to be given to a board when there was no stecurity that it would be composed of members be longing to the church. He therefore moved as an amend ment, that the bill be read a third time that day three months. Mr. HEYWORTH also opposed the bill, Upon a division, the numbers were -.6.F0r the third reading lO5 A.gamst it lO2 Majority --3 The announcement of the numbers was received with loud cheers:. The bill was then read a third time. On the I r 4ORD ADVOCATE proposing an additional clause, . Mr. HAD,FIELD appealed to the Government whe ther they woo Id persist in the bill after such a decided expression of tbe opinion of the house, and when se veral members who had hitherto supported the bill had just voted again: et it. Mr. W. LOCKHART made the same appeal, and said three members representing the largest communities in Scotland, and w ho had formerly supported the bill, had just voted agahrst it. Mr. G. DUNCAI said he was one of the members referred to. Ile had .all along supported the bill, but he was now reluctantly o bliged to vote against it, because he found that the bill converted the Scotch burghs into mere taxing machines, as it gave the general board a power to compel the erection of a school, whether the people in the locality th ought it was necessary or not. Mr. A. HASTIE said the bill was introduced as a national measure, and be hailed it with delight. It then degenerated into a Presbyterian measure, and though he regretted the change still he could support it, for he was aware that Presbyterians in Scotland constituted 90 per cent, of the population. But now it had become a mere sectarian system, which no denomination in Scotland could accept except the Established and the Free Churches, and he was reluctantly constrained to oppose it. Alter some further discussion, Lord PALMERSTON said his opinion on the merits of this measure was not changed, though some hon. members—actuated, he supposed, by pressure from without—had changed their opinions at the eleventh hour. He proposed, therefore, to go on with the bill. Au amendment by Mr. DUNLOP, to take away the control of the Presbyteries of the Established Church from the religious teaching of the schools, was carried by a majority of 117 to 80. The house then divided on the question that the bi do pass, when there appeared— Ayes Noes 130 115 Majority for the bill -15 The bill wits accordingly passed amid some cheering row the Government benches, and laughter from the Opposition. TENANTS' INPIZOVEMENT COMPENSATION I(IRELAND) BILL. The corny nitte e on thi s bill was th en resume d. On the 15th clause, Mr. HO RSMAN moved that the chairman report progress, mad ask leave to sit again. Mr. MA.LINS wished to ask the noble lord at the head of the Government a question. A rumour had reached him, which he could not believe, that a certain number oC Irish members had waited upon the noble lord and intimated that the retrospective clause in this bill, which had been rejected by a majority of 36, must be restored ; and that the noble lord, under pressure, had ag.reed to support a motion for its restoration. He could not believe that sueh a bargain had been made, but he took the liberty to ask whether there was any truth in ti ie r eport. Lord P ALMERSTON said a certain number of Irish members I lad waited upon him and told him they were anxious t( ) restore the clause which had been restored, and wishod to know if he would support them. He told them. that as he bad voted for the clause before he would certi tinly vote for its restoration ; but there was no bargain or pressure in the case. In answi , r to Mr. S. FITZGERALD and Col. DUNNE, Lord PALMERSTON further explained that the clause he meant to support was that proposed by the Governor ent--not by Mr Sergeant Shee. Some of the deputatic in did remark that members of the Government were abs. nit on the last division, and he replied he had occasion to remark on the absence of certain members .71.477,771! .
