The SPEAKER took the chair at 12 o'clock. ACTS OF PARLIAMENT AMENDING BILL. On the motion of Mr. MASSEY, the order of the day for the second reading of the above bill was read and discharged. MARRIAGE LAW AMENDMENT BILL. On the order of the day for resuming the discussion of the above bill in committee, The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said, as there was no chance of the bill passing in the present session—the object of the bill being to legalise marriage with a de ceased wife's sister—he trusted there would be no ob jection in the house to its being withdrawn. The house having gone into committee, Mr. HEYWOOD admitted the force of the rear:ons for not proceeding with so important a bill at this late period of the session. The hon. member then moved that the chairman report progress, adding that it was his intention next session to renew the bill. After a few observations from Mr. V. SCULLY and Mr. NAPIER, who stated their intention to resist the application of such a to Ireland whenever it might be brought forward again, Mr. HEYWOOD said the bill which he intended to bring in next session would certainly not exclude Ire land ; but Scotland was differently situated, and separate bill would be brought in for that part of the kingdom. The house then resumed, and the order was die charged. GRAND JURIES (IRELAND) BILL. On the motion of Sir D. NORREYS, the order of the day for the second reading of the above bill was read and discharged. ' BLEACHING, &c., WORKS BILL. On the order of the day for the second raadinf; of this bill, Sir G. GREY expressed a hope that the hon. and learned gentleman (Mr. Butt) would not persevere with so important a measure at this advanced period of the session. Mr. I. BUTT said he felt bound to persevere with the bill, as it was no fault of his that its progress had been delayed to this period of the session. The object of the bill was to restrict the excessive hours of labour in bleaching works, where young girls were from 16 to 18 hours a day constantly at work, and that, too, in close rooms where the temperature was sometimes 120 to 130. The hon. member read several extracts from evidence taken by a Royal Commission as to the hours of labour in those factories, which fully bora out his statements. He said with these facts before them the house would hardly blame him for trying to pass a bill in the present sessio❑ that would apply some remedy to sOfearful a state of thi rIgR. He said the masters were not opposed to some improve ment in the present system, as was stated by Mr. Tre rnenbere. He contended, therefore, that there was rot the slightest reason for the house not extending to bleach works the same system of legislation as they had already extended to factories with so much benefit. He did not attempt by this bill to interfere with adult lab'iur; all he intended to do by the bill was to restrict the hours of labour for women and children in bleach works from six o'clock in the morning till six o'clock in the allowinq an hour and a half f ,, r meals. (Hear.) He concluded by moving that the bill be now read a second time. Mr. KIRK said he bad placed a notice on the pacer that this bill be read a second time this day three months. If the bill had been delayed and obstructed, the lion. and learned member himself bad been the obstruction. He contended that whatever might be the abuses 'of bleach-works in England and Scotland, no such abuz.es exited in works of that kind in Ireland, where they e.m. ployed very few females, and no young, men under 14 or 15 years of age. He maintained that was the great de- 1 feet. of the factories, and that there ought to . be a law to prevent them engaging any young person under 14 years of age. He was quite prepared to let a fair bill be sent to a select committee next session=a bill that would be fair to the masters and the workpeople, and he should be most ready to assist in passing it. He conclude,: by moving that the bill be read a second time that day three months. Mr. CROOK rose to second the motion of the hon. and learned member (Mr. Butt) for the second reading of the bill. Sir G. GREY said if the house assented now to the second reading of the bill, it could not pass this session. Hasty legislation at Vie end of the session, on such on important bill, would be very injurious, and therefore he felt bound to oppose the second reading. , Lord SEYMOUR would appeal to the house whether they shOuld proceed any further with the bill this session. 'He fully concurred la the necessity for some legislation on the subject, but it was evident the bill could not be carried this year, and therefore he must vote against the second reading. Lord J. MANNERS said only one hon. member bad opposed the second reading of the bill, and he would put it to the house whether the arguments he had put for ward were sufficient to induce the house to reject the measure. No one had objected to the principle of the bill, and he could. not see on what ground its further progress could be opposed. He was convinced, if the house would give the bill a second reading, an d consider its details, no opposition would be given to its passing in the House of Lords. Mr. CAIRNS could not assent to the measure as at present framed, although he thought that it had in it the elements of good, believing that its provisions could not carry out the important principle involved hi the bill. He objected to the measure as one that was too sweeping. Mr. W. A. WILIUNSON objected to the measure as detrimental to the working classes. He thought the Government would fail in its duty unless they gave their most strenuous oppositiiiii to the measure. Sir J. PAKINGTON thought that the house was wasting its time in discussing a measure which he 'ad mitted was important, but which he felt it was impos sible to be carried through or made, law in the present session. Mr. DUNCAN regarded the measure as one that was moat important, and would always receive his support, but he thought, acting upon the principle that discretion was the better part of valour, the best course would be to withdraw it and bring it forward in amoebic session, when its important nrovidous lomat Be tilol - 014itty con- sidered. enr.

PELLATT moved that the hill should b e committed that day three months, believing that the house had not had time to consider the - provisions of the bill. The Marquis of BLANDFoRD defended the bill.

By Mr. Commissioner Henderson—lt would hAve en unFafe for Lord Robt. Grosvenor to have walled tbTough the cr ,wd. Rev Leonard Sedgwick, 14, `Vesthourne•place, was in the park between half-past three and four o'oclock, and remained till half-past six o'clock. He went there from curiosity to see the class of persons who were opposed to the Sunday bill. The crowd appeared to be of two classes—one from curiosity, and the other with a deter mination to do something, and appeared to he acting under orders. They were between the receiving•house and the end of the Serpentine. He saw six or seven sticks or pieces of hurdles and some stones thrown at two or three gentlemen who were riding along the road; they were thrown from behind the persons immediately leaning on the rails. He saw one of the stones strike a policeman, but not, he thought, to hurt him. The crowd near the receiving house was composed of " half-grown boys, and men." (Laughter.) He saw the police surround the crowd, as if desirous of ap rehending some one. Their truncheons were drawn, lut he could not say if he struck any person. He heard the police ask the people to go back from the rails, and he saw them pushing the second row to allow the front row to go back. The crowd in the Park was such as required the interference of the police, and he thought the police had been unjustifiably accused for their con duct on that occasion. Capt. Leopold Paget, R.A., was in the Park from half-past 3 until half-past 5 o'clock. He heard a great shouting, and he placed himself in front of the railings by the Serpentine. He with the people were two or three times removed back by the police, who had their truncheons in their hands, when there was more than ordinary shouting. The removals were made decidedly, but with no unnecessary violence. He saw pieces of hurdle fall into the carriage drive where the police were standing. There were three or four foreigners standing near him. They said they knew better how to manage things in their country ; they would soon upset the cabs and form a barricade. One mechanic said " they did not want the little commotion made worse." (Applause.) One red-haired woman was for putting everything down. He believed the police acted temperately and fairly. Crose•examined by Mr. Mitchell—The police appeared to be acting all day under orders. By Mr. Commissioner Armstrong—He saw no one struck by the police. By the Chief Commissioner Wortley—Was there much crowding ? Witness—Yes, very much ; and he stepped so hard on a gentleman's toe that he found his hand in his pocket. (Laughter.) Captain F. T. Parsons, 3d Regiment Middlesex Mi litia, was in the Park about an hour. He saw six or eight carriages pass along the drive, and each was re ceived according to its appearance—the more respect able the more the noise. He saw one carriage that he thought the horses would have started from the noise— cat-calls, &c., similtr to that heard frequently in theatres. The police bthaved in the most respectful manner to wards him. He thought the 7olice performed their duty admirably during the time he was in the park. Cross-examined by Mr. Mitchell—He saw no stones thrown. The noise was more than was heard on Derby days. He should have been afraid to have taken a valuable horse along the drive. He did not see the police struck, nor any persons removed in custody, or struck by the police. He went to the park from curio sity. He thought it an organised assembly. James Henbery, park-keeper, occupying the Dairy lodge, near the receiving -house, described the crowd es being partly violent and partly civil. The man taken from the Serpentine was very violent, and had to he brought to his house by four men. A boy was brought there whose head was cut severely either by an oyster shell or a stone. The boy said he had not been struck by a policeman's staff. After his head was dressed by a medical man who was there he went away. There aas a large number of macadamised stones in the drive near the receivilig-house. Cross-examined by Mr. Mitchell.--He had some hand cuffs in his house, and he saw one pair put on one man, and gave another pair to a policeman to use. He sug gested the handcuffs being put on the man who was taken out of the Serpentine on account of his violence. He did not see the poli9eman strike the man. Witness was blind in one eye. (Laughter.) He did not see any person struck by the police. He could not recollect whether he told the policeman ho never saw such a va gabond in his life, but there were plenty there. The crowd surrounded his place, and he was afraid they would have pushed the fencing down. It was the dead eel that set them all to work. (Laughter.) The man taken from the Serpentine had only a pair of trousers on when be was put into a cab and taken off. Mr. J. M. Parker, bookbinder, 10, Park-street, West minster, was in the park from half-past 3 till 4 o'clock. He went there from curiosity. He heard much n, ire and clamours, and some o► the people address the police as "sanguinary crushers"--(laughter)—there was a bitter feeling evinced against them for preserving order, and the people refused to go back when requested. There were a number of roughs in the Park ; the con duct of those he saw reminded him more of what he had read of " Wild Indians" than "civilised beings." (Hisses.) Mr. Chief Commissioner Wortley, addressing the audience, said he hoped he should hear no further ebulli tions of feeling of that kind. Witness said he should not have liked to have been in the park without the protection of the police. He saw a number of persons exciting the mob, who he con sidered were foreigners from their " moustachios, cada verous, and seedy appearance." (Laughter). Cross-examined by Mr. Mitchell—The respectable c!assee did not appear to think the conduct of the roughs so serious a; he did. They rather sympathised with them. He saw a large flourish of police truncheons in the air. When a large concourse of peed's assembled there should be a little forbearance, both on the part of the people and the police. He wrote to Sir Richard Mayne, offering to give evidence, but his memory would not serve him as to the contents of the letter. Colonel Lindsay, M.P., of the Guards, was in the crowd in Park-street, opposite Lord Robert Grosvenor's house. There were about 300 or 400 persons present. He saw three carriages pass during the time he was there. He heard shoutiug, oaths, and cries of "Chuck him out," which latter he understood meant Lord Robert Grosve nor. The crowd was menacing in that respect. Two policemen were at Lord Robert Grosvenor's door, and three or four others walking about in front mixing with the crowd. Afterwards a large body of police came up, five abreast, followed by a small crowd. Just beyond Reeve's-mews the crowd received the police with yells and groans, on which a person in authority de,ired a rank of men to face about and charge the people behisd them, which was done, the others charging those in the front at the fame time. He did not hear the police re quest the people to move off before charging them. The police struck half a dozen ofthe foremost people on the arm and shoulder. Some time after he saw a man walking up the street with blood on his face. It was decidedly prudent the crow 4 should be dispersed. At the time the police came up, they were receiv. d with groans and yells. They were surrounded on three sides by the crowd. By the Cuief Commissioner—There were no sticks or stones thriwn to indicate alarm. _ _ By Mr. Commissioner Hendersot)—lt might have been alarming t the inmates of Lord Robert Grosvenor's house. It would have been decidedly injudicious for Lord Robert Grosvenor to have gone amongst the crowd. It might have 'Lern dangerous had he done so. Mr. George Weller, beer retailer, East-lane, Wal worth, deposed.to the hooting and yelling in the park, and Superintendent Hughes being struck by a clod of mud thrown at him, accompanied with coarse expres sions ; the police used no violence whatever in clearing the drive ; they had a great deal to bear that day, and he considered they exercised great forbearance. Cross-examined by Mr. Mitchell—He beard "epi taphs" applied to the police—(laughter)—such as " Who stole the rabbit pie ?" alluding to a policeman who had been in trouble about a rabbit pie. (Renewed laughter.) Witness was in favour of the Sunday. Beer Bill. Mr. Watkyn Williams , barrister, King's Bench Walk, was in the Park about two hours, on the north side of the drive, near the Serpentine. The police were unable to keep the line, from men breaking through without any apparent object. He saw some wooden hurdles in the Park wilfully broken on three occasions by young men. He became alarmed from seeing women thrown down and the crowd in an excited state, and he moved away. The impression on his mind at the time he saw the hurdles broken was that it was a wanton act, and not for the purpose of arming themselves. He thought the crowd more or less orderly. There was a great deal of hooting. He was particularly struck with the forbearance of several young policemen. He saw no violence on the part of the police. He noticed an elderly man, who was making sarcastic observations on the Go vernment, distributing drink ha had in a bottle to some persons near him. - The committee then adjourned. till 11 o'clock to•mor row, when the police spoken of will be brought up to be identified. BOW STREET-(TITM DAY). THE CASE OF STRAHAN , PAUL, AND CO. The prisoners were, according to previous arrange ment, brought up to this court this morning, and for mally remanded to this day week. IVilliant Jones, a respectably-attired man, was again placed at the bar, in accordance to a remand, charged with picking a lady's pocket in a Tottenham-court-road omnibus.

He suggested that the different local Boards in the country who were en. trusted with the administration of the Nuisances Re moval Act should be empowered to take proceedings against adulterators of food. He observed that, even if no penalty were inflicted, the effect of such a provision would be morally beneficial. Atter the examination of olie or two other witnesses, the committee adjourned.

The bill had passed through a select committee of the House of Lords, and had been well eonsidend there by the bishops of the country, who entirely approved of it. Mr. HADFIELD denied that the bill had been thoroughly considered, and asserted that its further pro gress ought. to he postponed to another sessi..a, Mr. HENLEY said that the bill was defective, but considered that it ought to be allowed to go into com mittee to remedy those defects. Mr. J. G. PHILLIMORE opposed the committee on the bill, considering that it was an attempt to accomplish an object which did not appear on the face of it. Such a species of legislation he felt bound to give his most strenuous opposition to. Sir G. GREY hoped the bill would be allowed to go into committee, believing it to be a measure, if properly carried out, that would be productive of the best results. After some observations from Lord J. Manners, Mr. Hindley, Sir J. V. Shelley, Sir W. Cubitt, and Sir W.

The preamble was postponed, and clause 1 was agreed to. On clause 2, An amendment confining the operation of the act to cities and towns was moved by Lord R. Cecil. Sir J. PAKINGTON assented to the amendment, and it was agreed to without a division. After some further discussion, Mr. HADFIELD moved that the Chairman report progress, which was also agreed to without a division. The house then resumed, and, after some other busi ness on the paper had been disposed of, it being close upon six o'clock, adjourned till to-morrow. POST-OFFICE .NOTICES.

PARK. INQUIRY INTO THE ALLEGED MISCONDUCT OF THE FOLICE.-(THIS DAY.) The Commissioners took their seats this morning shortly after 11 o'clock. The' Chief Commissioner Wortley inquired of Sir Richard Mayne whether, in consequence of the war or other circumstances, a considerable change had not taken place in the constitution of the police by the in troduction of a number of fresh and young men into the force ? Sir Richard Mayne said there was no foundation for such a supposition. He said the force at present amounted to 5,707 men, and the dates of their joining the force was as follows :-in 1829, 13 ; 1830, 33 ; 1831, 19 ; 1832, 25 ; 1833, 35 ; 1834, 48 ; 1835, 65 ; 1836, 55 ; 1837, 94 ; 1838, 107 ; 1839, 118 ; 1840, 281 ; 1841, 155 ; 1842, 171 ; 1843. 204 ; 1844, 163; 1845, 193 ; 1846, 281 ; 1847, 270 ; 1848, 397 ; 1849, 261 ; 1850, 274 ; 1851, 374 ; 1852, 408 ; 1853, 675 ; and 1854, 967. Mr. Chief Commissioner Wortley-I see, then, more than one-sixth of the force joined in 1854. Sir Richard Mayne said a great many changes took place the first 12 or 18 months of the men j.:)ining the force, from their not liking the severity of the duty and other causes. The resignations had been in 1840, 754 ; 1841, 629 ; 1842, 517 ; 1843, 470 ; 1344, 525 ; 1845, 605 ; 1846, 832 ; 1347, 707 ; 1848, 548 ; 1849, 553 ; 1850, 608 ; 1851, 1,360 ; including the extra number temporarily engaged the exhibition year ; 1552, 636 ; 1853, 896 ; 1854, 822 ; which included those who had left the force to join the Land Transport Corps, &o. The dismissals since 1849, since which time a registry had been kept, were, 1849, 235 ; 1850, 195 ; 1851, ;09 ; being the exhibition year ; 1852, 231 ; 1853, 251 ; 1854, IS9. 300 men were specially employed in the park on the Ist of July, taken from the reserve of the divisions. These were bodies of 50 men attached to the S divisions, and their ordinary employment was the filling up of va cancies arising from sickness or leave of absence, or for strengthening the force on any particular emergency. The reserve were sciccLed Men, and had, belonged to the force 12 months. Of the whole force 4,416 were English, 370 Irish, and 145 Scotch. Mr. Commissioner Armstrong said he was very glai to hear of it, because an anonymous letter had been sent to the, commission stating the force to a large extent was composed of Irish. Mr. Chief Commissioner Wortley said the letter was signed "an English gentleman," but it was not couched in terms one would expect from an English gentleman. He begged to say once for all that the commission could take no notice of such communications. This was an open court, and any person having a grievance to com• plain of if be came there would be heard. Mr. Samuel Fry, solicitor, Strand, was in the Park on the let of July. He noticed that the crowd appeared bent on givin i expression to their feelings on the Sun day bill ; bat that, being frustrated in it, their exaspera tion was turned against the police. He saw a young man, respectably dressed, pocket a number of small pebbles, which he threw into .the air for the purpose of annoyance. The police on two occasions went under the rails to clear the people, and they did it in their usual manner. Some persons appeared determined to come into collision with the police, and did so. He divided the crowd into two classes—one shouting, the other conversing peaceably. Many were no doubt at tracted by curiosity to the park. There was great ex asperation on the part of the populace. There might have been some unlucky blows struck that day by the police near the Serpentine, when the police endeavoured to stop the people from rushing across the road, and a female who ought to hive gone the right way go the wrong way, she would scream and then the mob cried "Shame," and it became necessary from the conduct of the people that the police should use their truncheons. There might have been individual cases of mistake by the police, and had they not acted with vigilance and firmness serious disasters might have resulted. Cross-examined by Mr. Mitchell—The crowd was not a good humoured one. He thought it would have been dangerous for Lord Robert Grosvenor to hate been there. He oltw a stone thrown at a four-wheel conveyance. People in vehicles did not appear likely to be alarmed at the . People--as they drove along they appeared to fra ternise with the p eo pl e .

He saw one man•bleedin„e from a blow on the temples, and be appeared excessively exasperatf 1. By Mr. Chief Commissioner Wortley —It would not have been safe for the carriages ordinarily fewh seen in the park to have been there this day for was would large have stood the noise. Although there number of persons disposed to be . quiet, there a were of power was ficient to have created a serious riot. There vmarea suf ficient at his ne cessity for some means being used to protect the people usually in the park, but as to the quantity another question. tr w e a e s t, which s s v r e u n l e e r s . , s Mr. W. Tidd Pratt, son of the celebrated Mr. Tidd Pratt, reviser of friend father's residence, 12, was opposite Lard Robert Grosvenor's house, on the Ij iv pp ee er eie G ty ro ' afternoon in question. He flaw' a large crowd of persons approaching from various directions assemble in front of Lord Robert Grosvenor's house. They shouted very much, and the roadway was impeded by_ the number of persons congregated. At first there was only a few policemen there. Afterwards a larger body suddenly appeared, and asked the people to move on. About three minutes after,they took out their truncheons, and the street was speedily cleared. He was on the balcony, and distinctly heard the police ask the crowd to move on. He saw them strike about a dozen men, those who would not inolDep an d continued arguing with them, or remained in the door ',Vie or elute; to the lamp-posts.

BURKE'S ROMANCE OF THE ARISTOCRACY.--It has been justly observed that, " whatever changes we may desire to see in the abuse of their position by the aristo eraey, we are sure that all that relates to them will ever have an interest for the Engli , h people. The pages before us, however, have recomme• dations of their own, independent of the lofty names which occur throughout them. We have but to glance over the list of contents, and our curiosity is excited. The abduction of the Hon. Mary King ; the duel in tween Lord Beron (grandfatht r of the Poet) and William Ch ,worth, Esq., of Aun-sley Nall ; the beautifnl Misses Gunning ; the story of the Countess of Strathmore ; and fifty other choice bits of romance fix the attention. It is a book that should be read as communicating facts sthich deserve to form part of the history of the c, untry.

By her Majesty's Royal Letters Patent for valuable and extraordinary improvements in the most powerful and brilliant Telescopes, Camp, Race course, Opera, and Perspective Glasses, to know the distances of objects viewed through them—of great importance to the army, navy, and others. These telescopes possess such extra ordinary powers that some 3. inches, with an extra eye piece, will show distinctly Jupiter's moons, Saturn's ring, and the double stars ; with the same telescope can be seen a person's countenance three miles and a half distant, and an object from 16 to 20 miles. They are of larger and sizes, with increasing powers accordingly ; while their vary. ing from 4to 6 inches en a ble us to discover more than the above and the Georgian, with his 6 satellites , &c. — The Royal Exhibition, 1851.—Valuable, newly-invented , very small, powerful waistcoat-pocket glass,the size of a walnut, by which a person can be seen and known 1 miles distant ; they answer every purpose on the race-course, and at the opera houses, country scenery, and ships are clearly seen at 8 to 10 miles.
