IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS—(YESTERDAY.) The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at five o'clock. _ PETITIONS. Lord SHAFTESBURY presented a petition from Bath, signed by 1,543 persons, praying the intervention of England in support of the restoration of Poland. TICKETS OF LEAVE. Lord ST. LEONARDS wished to inquire whether her Majesty's Government have adopted any new scheme for granting tickets of leave to convicts. The noble lord Galled the attention of their lordships to the question in volved. When it was determined to abolish transportation as a general punishment, the question to be solved was, what was to be the substitute for transporation 'I • It was proposed in respect to convicts sentenced to seven or ten years to introduce a system of penal servitude. Power was, therefore, given to the magistrates, whenever they thought proper, to grant licences to those sentenced to transportation in the shape of tickets of leave, by which the convict was permitted to go to certain districts in dicated in these licences, such districts to be limited to the United Kingdom and the Channel Islands. The noble lord then entered into a statement to show that the system was fraught with the utmost danger. The noble lord said he had already stated in this house the cruelty exercised towards those persons who had re ceived tickets of leave, by following up those per sons by policemen in plain clothes ; and there fore it was a mockery to say that that un fortunate individual h a d rece iv e d 'any benefit from the system as at present pursued. The noble lord then re ferred to the statistics of crime, and contended that the results had been anything but favourable. After having, adduced several cases in which the most lamentable re sults followed the discharge of those persons, he sub mitted that there had not been sufficient care taken in granting tickets of leave. Earl GRANVILLE said the Government regretted as much as the noble lord the working of the ticket-of leave system. With regard to whether the Government hrad any new scheme, he regretted that he could not give an answer that would be satisfactory to the noble and learned lord. He had brought down a report, with the intention of reading some portions of i t to their lordships ; but he thought it would oc cupy too much time if he were now to do so. Some of the statements made by the noble lord, he must say, were exaggerated, and, with respect to the watching of persons by the police after they bad rece i ve d ti c k e t s of leave, he begged to inform the noble and learned lord that only one case had been reported to the Home O . ffice, and he did no t thi n k th a t h e would wish the Government to act upon this one single case. He begged to i n f orm th e no bl e an d l earne d l or d that Sir G. Grey intended to collect materials with re spect to this question, and, when he had done so, they would be laid before their lordships. Earl GREY said if this country were obliged to yield to the colonies everything they demanded, the sooner it gave them up the better. The colonists could not com plain of injustice, as they wont originally to a penal colony, for this sake of the advantage that convict labour afforded them. He preferred transportation to the present mode of penal servitude, and he thought that Western Australia could take all the convicts this country would be likely to wad. The LORD CHANCELLOR said that no member of their lordships' house concurred more than he did in the necessity that existed for transportation. The experience acquired during many years'adne i nistration of criminal law had convinced him that transportation answered all the ends of punishment more than anything else • for it con tained the two essential ingredients of punis hment—the maximum of correction and the minimum of suffering. But, unfortunately, however advantageous it might have been to this country, it was the opinion of the last two Go vernments, and also of their lordships, that the time had come when transportation must be, he would not say abo lished, for it had not been abolished, but to a great extent cut down and modified. He believed that about 1,000 con victs were the most that could now be annually sent out of the country. The noble earl who last addressed their lord ships considered that the necessity for the modification of transportation was too nastily assumed, and that the feeling in the colonies was brought about by unjustifiable language held by certtin individuals at home, who sought for some __ thing they did not desire. He (the Lord Chancellm) con fessed that, to a great extent, he was inclined to agree in that view of the case; but, from whatever cause it had arisen, the feeling was too great to be resisted. It was felt to be impossible to continue to send out convicts in the face of the remonstrances that were made on the subject. The noble earl said our colonies were not worth keeping if we were to yield everything they demanded; but the ques tion was this—when there came repeated remonstrances against ear loading those rising communities with the off scouring of our criminal population, was that a complaint it would have been just and safe to resist? It was neces sary that an experiment should be made. When it•was said that an experiment must be made, he thought it of necessity followed that a bill similar to that which their lordships had passed should be brought in. • If convicts could not be sent abroad, they must be imprisoned at home. What he proposed, and whattheir lordships adopted; was this, that - whereas there had been a very well-known system of substi tuting terms of imprisonment at Milbank for certain terms of transportation, that which had been done' 'by the Exe cutive should thenceforward be done by the Legislature. The terms, which were said to be short, wore the exact terms that had been in use. The man who was s2ntenced to transportation for seven years was by the universal system imprisoned for four years; for ten years, seven were substituted, and eo on. As to the question how fer the Government had acted wisely in carrying out the en actment of the Legislature, it had been said, over and over again, that the whole dealing with this subject was neces sarily an experiment ; and, looking to the report of Col. Jcbb, he thought it would be impossible to deny that the system was working well. There might be individual cases of hardship, but the general result was, that persons , undergoing first imprisonment, and then penal labour, and who then get out on tickets-of-leave—the result was, that a great proportion of them turned out comparatively ho nest and useful members of society. It was a plausible statement that an effectual system of registration and con trol would afford greater safety ; but any such system of registration was likely to be deceptive. However, it was beto make such an attempt, and such an attempt will be made. The system of compelling men to report them selves regularly might also be tried, but he must say he taw great difficulties in that system. There would be great difficulty in forcing a man who had got into work, perhaps, to resort to the county town, or to some central office, there to report himself. (Hear, hoar.) The man would have to get leave from his master, and it would be a perpetual renewal of his shame. He was of opinion that more evil than good would result from such an ar rangement. It might be necessary to make an experiment of the kind, but it was one he should look to with appre hension. Lord ST. LEONARDS was understood to then move for certain returns of the numbers, &c., of 111411 who had been liberated on tickets of lease. • CRIMINAL LUNATICS. Lord ST. LEONARDS said he should not trouble their lordships long on the subject of theinquiry Of which he had given notice, with reference to criminal lunatics. In re gard to the administration of the effects of lunatics a more perfect system than the English was not anywhere to be found. Tim laws on that subject which their lordships had made and passed, and put into operation, left very little to desire. But there was one most important part of the system which had been left unprovided for—that was the subject to which he now called their attention ; and he wished to inn uiro whether her Majesty's Government had any intention to erect asylums for criminal lunatics? Earl GRANVILLE was sorry to say that a great evil ex isted in regard to criminal lunatics, and it was most desir able that proper accommodation should be provided for:them. He was happy to state, although he would not pledge the Government to carry the proposal into immediate effect. that it was,in contemplation to erect an asylum for criminal lunatics. It'was entirely a question of time, and a matter for the consideration of the Chancellor of the Exchequer and the House of Commons. Lord ST. LEONARDS expressed his gratifieation at the statement made by the noble earl. The. Exchequer Bille (17,183,0001.) B A was read the second time. THE BUSINESS OF THE COLONIAL OFFICE. The Earl of DERBY then rose to put a question to the Government "respecting the arrangements to be made for the efficient discharge of the duties of the colonial depart ment, in the event of the prolonged absence of the Secretary of State for the Colonies." He said - In bring ing forward the question of which I have given notice, I would be very sorry to cause embarrassment in the Ministerial arrangements ; but the subject is one of the greatest importance, and the neglect of it must cause so much public inconvenience, increasing day by day, that I ant constrained to call the attention of.your lordships and of the Government to it. I need not remind you of the rather unusual circumstances under which Lord John Russell accepted the office of Secretary of State for the Colonies. That noble lord was not a member of the Government when it was originally formed, but ho had ac eueptee a most important mission, and had left this country pen it at the time when the r es ignation of several members of the overnment rendered various new appointments ne cessary. H e was alrea d y on the Continent, when, by tele tghranphhe'aaßlflt-GiGen was made to him by the oble viscount at take the office of Crinam't Ivhether ho would be willing to by return of post, but of State for the Colonies, and, not of telegraph—it is e n ej ?t` quicker method still—by return that the noble lord intimated his perfect readiness to acceptthe duties and responsibilities of that important office, haviniiguti,,,zpoLne lt:eh,ot office—not returning , te Lt r. ,U l d Pka a bout to complain of the noble lord for — home to perform its I think such a course would have been injurious to th n e tr e a the duties of th ( contrary, interests, and I am satisfied it was quite proper and wise fo r the noble lord l e t important e to proceed to Vienna to peform mission with which he had been intrusted. then the question whether his acceptanc e of the offieehuot- Secretary of State for the Colonies was or was not juetiaable: must depend alto:-eether npr a reasonable anticipateo n on the part of-the noble lord himself and the noble viscount at the head of the Government as to the yrobable duration of the noble lord's absence on that minion. I know that, technically and formally, every Secretary of State_ . can perform the duties and fuuction s of ever y other Secretary of State. It ie a case of Irk juneta ono; bnt, although that is so technically and formally—although for a certain limited time, during the Parliamentary re cess for intance, the business of one Secretary of State may he temporal ily administered by another—it is quite obvious, look in g to the importance and weight cf the busiucss belonging to each of those departments, that anything like a perma nent arrangement of that kind must be aVery great incon venience and injury t) the public service. So much is that the case that when the present war commenced it was found necessary to divide the Secretaryship of the Colonies into two, and to withdraw from it that which must fully oc cupy the attention of one Minister at a time like the pre sent, uamely,the bitiiness of the War Departmetit. I believe, moreover, that there is no Minister whose presence in this country is more necessary, and whose business can less bo taken up by any of his colleagues, than the Secretary of State for the Colonies. The reason is this—because there ie no Minister whore duties are so much apart and separate from the business of his colleagues ; none upon which in dividual responsibility is so great ;. none with regard to whichthe actual knowledge of the business of the office is sfoarnatu,3t. confined to the Minister himself. Ido not go so concu r in the axiom which I recollect was laid down by a right hon. and learned gentleman who for many years performed with great ability the duties of Under-Se cretary of State for theCzliot' ns--namely,the Cabinets were made for the colonie s ; having had so me experience of the duties of that office, I could appeal to more than one, THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, MARCH 10, 1855. noble lord who has also filled that situation, whether, of all the business to be brought before Cabinets, there was not the greatest difficulty in obtaining for colonial businessavery small portion of that very small period of time which the Ministers generally can spare from their individual depart ments to the collective discussion and consideration of pub lic affairs. The reason is this—because there were always pressing upon every Cabinet matters more urgent with re gard to immediate Parliamentary discussion, and more in teresting to parties nearer at hand, and therefore, practi cally, the colonial business is more exclusively in the hands of the Colonial Minister than the home business is in the hands of the Home Secretary of State, or the foreign busi ness in those of the Foreign Secretary. Hence, of all Mi nisters whose absence from the country would cause incon venience to their departments, I believe the Colonial Mini ster is the one whose absence would cause the greatest. I am told that, in consequence of the absence of Lord John Russell, the duties of the Colonial-office are for a time to be undertaken by a right hon. gentleman of very great abi lity and experience, but who also fills the office of. Home secretary. Now, I know something of the duties of the Colonial Department. Ik - nowthatif not almostoverwhelm ing, they are quite sufficient to occupy the attention of one Minister ; but from what I have seen of the business and duties of the Home Secretary, I would say they were infi nitely more important, requiring every moment of time that the Minister can devote to them. Ido not mean to say that there are not two ways of doing business. One mode is not doing it all (a laugh), leaving everything in arrea,r, and thus making an easy berth of any office ; but if the Secretary of State does his duty, as I know Sir G. Grey does his, the Home-office, I am sure, is enough to absorb the whole attention of any one minister. (Hear.) The right hon. gentleman, it is generally believed, and re gretted wherever it is believed, is not in very strong health, andlupon that account alone, before the late changes in the Government, it was supposed he was desirous to retire from the conduct of public business ; but were he the strongest man.in England, in mind and in body, I say it is absolutely impossible that for any lengthened period he should continue to discharge the combined duties of Home Secretary and Colonial Secretary, and attend besides to his parliamentary duties. (Hear.) Time and physical energy are absolutely impossible to equal the duties and labours which would be imposed by such a situation. Of course, all this turns upon a question of time. (Hear.) If Lord J. Russell's absence from this country is likely to be one of very short duration, of course the inconvenience is ma terially less; but, however short it may be, let me point out, with reference to the state of the colonial business at the present moment, several important questions that are absolutely in abeyance in. consequence of the absence of the Colonial Secretary. I do not refer to the delay— though that, too, is a matter of considerable importance— in coming to a decision with regard to any answer to be re turned to the various offers of pecuniary and military as sistance which have been received from the colonies. One of the members of the Government had stated in this house that that is a question which must wait for the return of Lord John Russell. Bat, at the present moment, I have a letter, giving a most serious account, which ought to bo the subject of the greatest anxiety to the Government of the state of that colony, which is not unconnected with the question that has just been discovered—l allude to the colony of Victoria. I do believe that the state in which that colony is at the pre sent' moment, partly arising from the difficulties relative to the gold-licenses, and partly from the course taken by the Colonial-office here, with regard to the removal of convicts from one colony to another, is such as to cause the deepest anxiety to those who watch the progress of the colony, and itnp6ratively requires the Learnest and immediate attention of the Secretary of State for the Colonial Department. Again, in the colony of the Cape of Good Hope we are threatened with a renewal of the Kafir war; but there is no Secretary of State to attend to the business of that department, and it is quite impossible that the Home Secretary can be conversant' with the de tails. Sir Oeorge Grey happens to have colonial ex perience, and so far he is better qualified than most people to deal with these questions, if he could deal with them in conjunction with his own department. Again there is the whole range of the Australian colonies, which have been acting upon the power you gave them the year before last to form constitutions for the management of their respective governments. The whole of these constitutions have been returned by the legislature of these colonies to this country to wait for the adoption, acceptance, or refusal of the Colonial-office. In consequence of the absence of the Colonial Secretary, all these constitutional questions must rest in abeyance, and the colonies mist remain uncertain as to what were to be their future constitutions: Every day, individuals connected with these colonies, and deeply inter ested in them, are coming hero from the remotest parts o f the world for the purposes of communicating with the Secr etary of State upon matters of the utmost irupsrtance to themselves and to the societies to which they belong. They come here • their time is limited ; they find the C o l on i a l Secretary :Went, and no under-secretary even appointed ; and—having perhaps come from the Antip ides—they are probably obliged to re t urn withouthaving had au opportunity of laying their case before the Secretary of State. Again, questions are rising every day in the House of Commons of deep interest, upon which it may be necessary to address queries to the Government, and to the Minister espe cially charged with the colonial department. There is ne Colonial Secretary in the House of Commons; there is no under-secretary appointed at the present moment ; and I believe theappointment of such an official, even if he could discharge the duties of the department, which he cannot, depends upon the decision of Lord J. Russell himself, he being at Vienna, and not having at present made any ap pointment. Of coarse, as I have already said, this ques tion altogether depends upon the probable duration of Lord John Russell's absence. Ido not know that I should have brought it forward at the present moment, if I did not hear that, after the noble lord has been absent a fortnight from this country, .preparations aro being made for the removal to Vienna of the whole of his family—the whole of his establishment, including some very young children —who are to travel so liesurely that the journey tp Vienna is, I understand, to occupy seven days. (A laugh.) That, at all events, does not indicate an expectation of an imme diate return to this country. (Hear, hear.) I would not be sorry if the stay of the noble lord at Vienna should be a lengthened one. If the conferences are to be broken up without effecting their object, of courseLerd John Rus sell will return to this country, but certainlyhis family ar rangements do not appear to warrant that view of the case, on the contrary, they, would rather lead us to hope thathe will be engaged in very protracted negotiations, with at least some prospect, though that is mote than I expect, of his being able to conclude a satisfactory peace. Bat if these negotiations are to go on, it was impossible that the present arrangement with respect to the Colonial-office can continue, or that the country can allow the greater part of the session to pass without a Colonial Secretary or an under-secretary' in the House of Commons. That is not treating Parliament rightly—it is not treating the country rightly, above all, it is not treating the colonies rightly, wisely, or.] udiciously, You will create an unfavourable impression in all our de pendencies if you show to the world that an office of such immense importance as the Secretaryship of the Colonies may be accepted by a minister who had actually left the country, and held by a minister who, being resident in Vienna, is physically unable to dis c h arge it s d u ti es . It is upon these considerations that I have thought -it my duty to bring this subject before your lordships. I donot know whether I shall be able to put my question in a de , finite form ; but I shall ask the noble earl the Pruiident of the Council whether he can hold out to us any expecta tion with regard to the probable period of Lord John Rus sell's return ; and, if he is unable to do so, within what time the Government would think it reasonable and nococsary that some permanent arrangement should be made for en trusting the duties of the Colonial-office to a secretary of state resident in this country, and not employed in the protracted negotiations At Vienna. (Hear, hear.) - - - - Earl GRANVILLE.—I feel great satisfaction that the noble earl seems to agree with the opinion enter- gained by the country relative to the importance of the mission accepted by Lord John Russell. I believe it is universally admitted that the difficult and delieette duty could not have been entrusted -to safer hands, and I believe,' also, that the appointment - of the noble lord is regarded as a pledge end proof to Europe that the English Government are perfectly sincere in their endea vours to obtain as early a peace as possible, provided it can be concluded upon safe and honourable terms. Under these circumstances, I think it would have been the most injurious measure possible if, when Lord John Russell had already visited the Court of the Tuileries, on his wey to Berlin and Vienna, ho had been suddenly recalled. It is, perhaps, using a strong word, but it appears to me that such a recall, after the delay which had taken place in con sequence of the Ministerial crisis- would have been nothing less than a breach of national crisis; As to the second point referred to by the noble earl, whether the offer of the Colonial-office - on the part of Lord Palmerston, and the acceptance of it on the part of Lord John Russell, was or was not justifiable, I myself cannot have the slightest doubt. We had seen the difficulty of forming a Govern ' meat strong enough to maintain its position. Even the noble earl opposite had given an example of how much in these sort of crisis, personal and party feelings required to be sacrificed fur the , sake of the public interests ; and I do think it was right for Lord Palmerston to secure, when his Government had lost the services of several eminent mon, the additional strength which could not fail to be im parted to his Administration by the adhesion of so distiu- pushed a statesman as Lord J. Russell. With respect to the inconvenience which may result from the absence of Lord J. Russell, the noble earl stated that he was perfectly aware that formally and technically any secretary of state could discharge the duties of the Coloaial-otliee. Now, I think if those duties had been imposed either upon the Secretary for War or the Secretary for Foreign Affairs —if, in addition to his ordinary office, either of them had been asked not only to transact the business of the colonies, but to make himself master of all the ques tions connected with that department of the executive —he must utterly have broken down in the attempt ; but the person 'to whore the charge of the colonial busi ness has been committed for a limited time is a right honourable gentleman who has the whole matter at his linger'a end, and who had conducted the administration of that department up to within three weeks of the accept ance of office by Lard J. Russell. No ono belonging to the Government can maintain that this is defensibl as a per manent arrangement. As the noble earl said, it is it ques tion of time. Lard J. Russell has gone to Vienna for the purpose of attempting to negotiate a treaty of peace. If it unfortunately happens, as the noble earl has himself stated, thatethese negotiations shall be broken off at once, there can be no doubt that Lord J. Russell will immediately re turn, and that his absence from London will be of short duration ; but if a more happy turn be given to affairs, I can assure the noble earl that the delay will not be so great as he supposes. Lord J. Russell goes to discuss and settle th , e great and general principles upon which a treaty of Pmay ho c onc l u d e d. If the se a re agreed to, I do hot chink t ' ide7i r ir a bl o th a t L or d J. Russell himself should stay tilled in thinking, ynatterr cnaettnt,ei time e to fini s h a ll thedetaile, and merely forward with the treaty ; and therefore I am. will be able to be b as at present informed, thatthe noblelord bask eti this coun t r y by,Easter at furthest. In the meantim e , been felt. I think Sir ve np inconvenience whatever has right to complain. It is an arduous Grey is the person who has a —a duty, as the noble earl haasal duty thrown upon him indisposition permanency w t il which no parson could a e Cabinet to which e o etin,s colonial I %.! a r v uess to himself ; e b v n e t r s t o i n f t a le r rti r tk o a t s h belong having shown an Considere the honour to upon business, wo have already held tw o that subject, two very important decisions have he b e'n tie Sir G. Grey has not shrunk from acting without any n g ' l n ay ( upon those qnestions which require immediate attention. st- Tho noble earl said there were two modes of doing b e - but I am sure that there is no man in this country ness ; . patient or more conscientious in the who, till his health does break down, is more which can be Secretary for the Homo De p artment. (Hear, hear.) With or may not become regard to the gold licence , that ma y a serious question, but it is not on o dealt with in its present state in this country. In all ma is going on as usual. In some important questions deci tters of routine the business of the Colonial-office sions have been taken, and where no inconvenience can a: ice from a short delay of one week communications are exchanged between Sir George Grey and Lord John Rus sell at Vienna. With respect to the Cape of Good Hope we have already done everything that can be in this country ; while, in regard to the appointment of an - Under - - Secretary, I am unable to give the noble earl any informa tion upon that point, though I may state that until a bill now in the House of Commons has passed both houses, it would be impossible to derive any assistance from an Under-Secretary in Easliament. I think the language of the noble ea - .. 1 in reference to a supposed insult to the co lonies in the appointment of an absent Minister is calcu lated to excite the very feelings which he wishes to prevent. As to the colonies being indignant at the acceptance of the Colonial-office by a man who had been Prime Minister, ono of the most successful Colonial Ministers of England, and known as one of the greatest statesmen of the age, I believe it to be a mero delusion, and I feel confident that during the short time that Lord John Russell will be absent on a most important mission the interests of the colonies will not suffer in the slightest degree from the manner in which the duties of the office will be performed by my right hon. friend the Secretary of State for the Home Department. Their lordships adjourned at ten minutes past seven o'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS-YESTERDAY. The SPEAKER took the chair shortly before four o'clock. The Chester and Holyhead Railway Bill was road a second time and ordered to be committed. PETITIONS. Mr. T. DUNCOMBE presented a petition from the inha bitants of Islington praying for an alteration in the licens ing23ystem. Mr. J. BALL and several other hon. members presented petitions, praying for the repeal of the newspaper stamp.

NEW WRIT. On the Motion of Mr. HAYTER, a new writ was or dered for Tamworth, in the room of Sir R. Peel, who since his election had accepted the office of a Lord of the .Admi ralty. REFORM OF THE ARMY. Colonel REED gave netice that on Monday he should ask the First Lord of the Treasury if the Government contemplated bringing in any measure for the reform of abuses in the army; and, if so, when might it be expected ? THE INVESTIGATOR. Mr. F. FRENCH ,gave notice that, on Monday, he would ask whether it was true that the craw of the Investigator, which had recently been engaged in attempting to explore the North-West Passage, having lost all their clothes, had only received 3/. per man as compensation? LONDON AND SOVTII-WESTERN RAILWAY BILL. On the motion of Mr. DEE DES it was agreed that the London and South-Western Railway Bill, read a second time on the Bth of this instant March, be referred to the Committee of Selection; and that it be an instruction to the said committee to refer the said bill to a committee of five members, consisting, as far as may be, of the same Members as the Devon and Dorset Railway Bill referred to in the session of 1853. RAILWAY AND CANAL BILLS. Mr. STRUTT moved that the Board of Trade do pre sent to the house, a report upon the Railway and Canal Bills of this session, in cepformity with the recommendation contained in the fifth report of the Select Committee on Railway and Canal Bills of the Session of 1853. Agreed to. LORD LUC AN. On the motion that the house at its rising should adjourn until Monday next, Lord ELCHO asked the hon. member for Bristol whether he intended to proceed with his motion for a com mittee to inquire into the conduct of Lord Liman and the disastrous charge at Balaklava. He asked this question be-- cause since notice had been given of the motion Lord Lucat had demanded a Court-martial, and he thought the hon. member would sae the expediency of postponing the mo tion pending this inquiry, should it take place. • Mr. H. BERKLEY consented to postpone his motion for the present, but he should still feel himself at liberty to bring it on should he deem it necessary to do so. The motion for adjournment. was then agreed to. BUSINESS OF THE HOUSE. On the motion fog going into committee of supply, Mr. DISRAELI said it would bo for the convenience of both sides if the Government would settle at what hour public business should commence every day. Hitherto it had been, half-past four, but of late the time had varied. from half-past four to five. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said his noble friend at the head of the Government would answer the question on some future occasion. Lord PALMERSTON, who came in subsequently to the above question, stated that it would be for the convenience of the Government if it was understood that in future public business should commence at half-past four o'clock. NEWSPAPER STAMP BILL. Sir H. WILLOUGHBY wished to know if it was the' intention of the Government to proceed with this bill; and if so, when? - The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said it was- Mr. RICARDO pressed the right hon. gentleman to fix. a day for the second reading. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER stated that he should be prepared to move the second reading on Mon day, the 19th inst. EXCHEQUER BALANCES.

Mr. WILSON said the returns could not be granted. 'The amendment was withdrawn. BREECEI-LOADING ARMS. Mr. MAGITIBE brought under the notice of the house certain improvements in the manufacture of breech-load ing fire-arms, and urge,' the importance of adopting such improvements in the British service. He parti cularly referred to Sharp's breech-loading rifle. The inventor of that arm was a few years ago a humble me chanic in America, but he introlnced his invention to the American Government, and having been thoroughly tested and found to be the best weapon of the description in ex istence, it was now universally adopted in the American army. It was brought under the notice of the authorities at Woolwich, in May last, but although trials and experi ments had since been made to test the value of the rifle, no intimation whatever of the result had been communicated to those who were the most interested in it. To-day the weapon had been tested at Lord Ranelagh's at Fulham, and he would tell the house the result of the experiment. The great advantage of.the weiapon wee, theb loaded at the breech with only three movements, whereas the ordinary rifle required five. The minie rifle could only be discharged two or three times in a minute, but to day he had seen Sharp's breech-loading rifle fired off 21 times in a minute and a half, 14 times in a minute, and 40 times in five minutes and five seconds. It had been approved of by some of the highest military autho rities in this country, and under these circumstances, he did mos t earnestly trust that Sharp's breech-loading rifle would have a fair trial at the hands of the Board of Ordnance. He also urged upon the attention of the Government* Adams' improved pistol, which was worth two of Colt's. Colonel B. KNOX had been a witness of the experi ment to-day, and so satisfied was ho of its simplicity and importance, tbat he had no hesitation in urging the Go vernment to give it a trial. It was the best adapted weapan for cavalry in existence. _ _ Mr. MONSELL admitted the importance of introducing into the army with the least possible. delay a breech loading rifle, and why it had ~not already been in troduced was simply owing to the anxiety of the Go vernment to obtain the best weapon. (Hoar, hear.) Last year an intimation was conveyed to the principal gun manufacturers of the country that the Government were disposed to introduce into the army a breech'-loading car bine, and they wore requested to send in their inventions for the purpose of being tested at Woolwich. (Hear, hear.) .Accordingly a large number were sent in, in cluding Sharp's carbine, and these had been fully tested by a co:nmitteo of military °deers. That committee had not yet decided which was the best, but the moment it was decided on no time would be lost in having a large number manufactured for immediate introduction into the army. He believed at present the choice lay between Sharp's carbine and another of an equally valuable and im portant character invented by a Monsieur Lenroi. Mr. DITND.A.S attributed the delay to the system of governing by boards •, if the matter had been left to the dacision of one man the beat weapon would long ago have been found out. _ _ _ (Jul. DUNNE wished to know if any report had been received upon the carbine of Mr. Sharp. 'Ter© was no doubt that breech-loading carbine was the best that could be adopted in cavalry regiments, but they were generally attended with the inconvenience of gancrating too much gas, which could not escape in suffi cient time to admit of its being hurriedly loaded. Mr. MONSELL said Mr. Sharp's carbine had been favourably rep or t e d amongst others, and in a very short time the best o f th ese wou ld b e se l ec t e d. ([Tear , hear.) The subject then dropped. RILE CRPS. Arr. WILLI A.MS agai F n urged upon the Government the expediency of sanctioniue , the establishment of volunteer rifle corps. H o believed 'offers to form such corps had been already made to the Home-of6ce, and ho thought they ought not only to be accepted, but encouraged. Lord PALMERSTON said ho received repeated offers of the kind while he was at the Home-office ; but, consider ing that they came from civilians engaged in trade, and living in inland localities, he &d not it wol.h while to put the country to the expense of sanctioning the formation of such rifles corps. The subject then dropped, and the house went into com mittee of supply on tho ORDNANCE ESTIMATES. On the question that 1,387,5001. be voted for the expense of works, buildings, and repairs, Lord SEYMOUR , complained that the vote was exces sively high, considering the large Ordnance expenditure which must take place this year abroad. He asked for some explanation relative to the establishment of barracks at Aldershot. Ho wanted to know vied was its object, and whether it was to be of a temporary or permanent clue meter. Ho should also like to know what number of men the building would accommodate ? Mr. MONSELL said the barracks would be partly tem porary and partly permanent. The temporary barracks were required for the immediate accommodation of troops and the militia, no as to obviate the necessity of resorting to the demoralising system of billeting. (Hear, hear.) Besides, it would give the troops the advantage of being drilled in large masses. It was believed that these barracks, which would be built partly at Aldershot and partly at the Omagh of Kildare, would accommodate 50,000 men.. The permanent barracks to be erected at Alder shot would be sufficient to lodge 20,000 men. The tempo rary barracks at Aldershot would have 20,000 men allotted to them, and those at the Curragh of Kildare 10,000. Mr. ELLICE thought it an extraordinary proposition, at a time like the present, to ask for a sum of 60,0001. for barracks at Dover, on the ground of having so made those fortifications, when they would only require to be protected uuder the exceptional circumstances of war. It was, too, beyond his comprehension why, at this particular time, the country should be asked to expend a large sum of mo ney for the defence of commercial harbours. With re spect to accommodating the embodied militia, he had not yet heard of any very great inconvenience arising from the difficulty of lodging them ; the inconvenience was no doubt coming upon us ; that was, however, but of a temporary character, and ought to be mot by t.iesporary expedients, because he hoped next year to be saved a vote of three millions for the embodiment of the militia. To require, too, at this particular moment, when every energy was required for carrying on operations abroad, a sum of 250,0001. for permanent barracks at Aldershott was to him a matter cf the greatest surprise. Did the Govern ment intend that after the war was brought to a close we were to become a great military nation. Were we really to set ourselves up in competition with the military na tions of the Continent in maintaining vast standing armies? That might perhaps be the intention of the Government, but this he knew thatwhen the question came to be raised by some worthy successor of his lamented friend Mr. Hume, the house would not be induced to vote the money required for such a purpose. He warned the Govern ment that when this war should be at an end, which he trusted would be much sooner than appeared to be anti cipated by the Government, they would not be able to have a vast standing army, and by the course which they proposed to take in providing accommodation for it they would only be throwing away the public money. (Hear.) The people of this country believed their defensive power to consist mainly in its maritime supremacy, and all that the country required in time of peace was that which was sufficient for our defence, and for the service of our colo nies. (Hear. ) Lord PALMERSTON said that If he could agree with his hon. friend that the vote now proposed was a vote fur erecting a great establishment of a .permanent nature, which would not be required after the moment of emer gency had ceased, he should be ready to concur with him in opinion that the statement made to the house was of an alarming character. (Hear.) The great mistake which he thought the House of Commons, the public, and the Go vernmeut had committed ever since the close of the last war, had been that they had acted by fits and starts, not upon any settled and steady system of policy, but accord ing to the impulse of the moment and the circumstance of the day, The great mistake after the termination of the last war was, that the Government and the public seemed to consider that halcyon days were beginning, and that we should never again have occasion to defend our selves from aggression, or to vindicate our honour. The consequence was, we had rushed to the demolition and dis posal of a great part of the barrack accommodation of the country. One of the consequences of that policy was, that even in times of peace, when he had but the. ordinary amount of military force, we bad not the means of lodging that reduced peace establishment in barracks, (Hear, hear, hoar.) They were, therefore, compelled to billet the troops, to the groat inconvenience of those persons upon whom they were billeted. Of course it was well known that innkeepers took their licenses subject to this inconvenience, but still the system entailed con siderable hardship upon them, especially in populous towns, and it was also exceedingly detrimental to the discipline and mot al feeling of the troops. (Hear.) From the incon veniences attending the billeting of large bodies of men in particular towns had arisen the necessity of distributing the troops in small detachments, and scattering them over the country, often in places whore they were not the least wanted, answering no purpose whatever, and materially injuring the discipline of the regiments. Bat what had been more strongly urged upon the Government was that, however good might be the regimental organisation of the army, still that, being scattered in small bodies, no oppor tunity was afforded for educating and preparing officers for the discharge of those staff duties which belonged to the aggregation of large bodies of troops. (Hear.) Every body admitted that even the exercise of the troops at Chob ham, where not more than 5,000 or 6,000 men were assem bled, had 'been of great advantage to the staff and regi mental officers, as well as the men, and it was a fact that those regiments which were at Cholihana had shown them selves in the Crimes much more able to,ahift for themselves than those which had pot had the advantage of being in the camp. (Hear, hear.) What the Government proposed was, not vast establishments such as his right hon. friend would lead the house to suppose, bat very moderate estab lishments necessary for the service of the country. What was proposed at Aldershott was to have accommodation for about 7,000 infantry, with the proper proportion of cavalry—such accommodation, in short, by which, they would be able to train that moderate number of men. With respect to the militia, ho could assure his right honourable friend that the greatest inconvonienos pos sible seas experienced from not having proper lodging for the regiments. The right hon. gentleman the member for Buckinghamshire had taunted him lately with a deficiency of foresight last Year, because he had not embodied the militia. But as much had been done in that respect as the barrack accommodation available would allow of, and the Government were unwilling to call out the militia when they would be obligiA to put them into billets. (Hear.) Then with respect to Aldershott and the Carragh of Kil dare, the only intention was that of providing those means requisite for training on a scale usual in times of peace. With respect to Dover, his right hon. friend asked why they were going to erect barracks there, and to defend the seaport towns? Were they to wait for a time of peace, till there was no enemy, to make their defences ? or was the proper moment for making our military defences when eve had a time of war ? With respect to Dover, the ar rangements made were not dependent on the circumstances of the day. For several years it had been a topic of re proach that our coasts were not in a proper state. Dover had been considered an important place, and ita fortifica• tione had been put in repair, and improvements had been made in the western heights; which were fortified, but the fortifications would have been useless without a proper place was provided for the men. Cassmates were not places in which troops could bo permanently . and willingly placed, and the barracks on the western heights wore not more than were Le • nary If t was determined to have de fensive works at all.• With respect to Hull and Liverpool and several smallerharbours, he (Lord Palmerston) wasbesut last year with applications for some means of defence, even against the attacks of privateers. When hon. gentle men thought more of the situation of these ports they would come to be of opinion that the erection of some small batteries only was an act of necessity with a view to defend thorn ; and his astonishment was great when he found what a small sum would be required to defend these ports from attack. From Liverpool atul Hull he had re ceived urgent entreaties on the subject, and he hoped the house would not be led away by the eloquence of his right hon. friend, but that they would feel that these were not works which were wanted for this particular year and not afterwards, but that they were necessary to maintain our military defences, and keep our army on a peace establish ment, enabling it to perform the duties of an army. His right hon. friend was on the committee now eneaged in in quiring into circumstances arising from bad arrangements made in times of peace, and he would find that the defici encies complained of were not in our regimental system, or in the bravery of our troops, or in the military qualities of our army, but deficiencies in those arrangements only which were required for the organisation of comparatively large bodies of troops—for arrangements belonging to a system of war. His right hon. friend said that we had not large armies to deal with, such as existed on the continent; and it was truo that we had not armies like those of France, or of Prussia, or of Austria ; but, however that might be, our army should be as good and as perfect as care and the best arrangements possible could make it. It was the worst eco nomy, and the most impi evident system, to have an army and deprive it of the means of making itself efficient. We should have the means of practising our army in all those things which belong to and make the effic:enev of a force, an - a ?non, snouts ae ue oteieed te go to war, we should have a basis that would be complete, and that would enable us to enter upon war on a well-organised system, and with effective arrangements. Sir J. TROLLOPE was ready to give his approbation to the Government for their plan for the. concentration of the troops on home service, for he believed that nothing was so injurious to the discipline of an army as td be scattered in detachments. He wished, however, to know if it were de termined that Alderahott barracks would be a permanent one ? It had been suggested that the huts should be built on a brick foundation, and if so, that they would last for many years , . These barracks would be of the greatest ad vantage to the service, not only in training superior offi cers, but in perfecting discipline and practising the army in acting together. (Hear.) With respect to the commer cial ports of Hull and Liverpool, he had very lately been down in Hull, and ho thought that the old fort might be disposed of, and that with the money which would be got for its site, and some small expen s e besides, a sufficient de fence might be provided. Mr. MONSELL was happy to inform the right hon. gentleman that his views relative to the old fort were being carried out. Tho sum of tB,OOO/. was to be expended on the fortifications. They would not dispose of the old citadel till some other fortification was erected in its stead, and for the ground of that ohl fort a sum sufficient to pay for the erection of the defence in lieu of it would be ob tained. Colonel KNOX had been down on the preceding day, a-..d bad seen all the arrangements at Ablershot, and he con sidered them creditable to the country. But they wore putting timbers on the ground, whereas it was said that, if they were placed on bricks or concrete, they could be main tained for thirty years. The want of accommodation in barracks had boon felt for a long series of years. There was not in this metropolis a single barrack to which in a time of popular excitement or riot we could lodge a bat tery of horse artillery, and for infantry we had not above 3,000 beds. In Brighton the barrack accommodation was likewise deficient, and when the militia wero called out, they were obliged to be billeted, and the evils of the billet wero very great. He hoped the Government would turn their attention to the matter of providing proper barrack accommodation, and he thanked the noble lord for grap pling with the subject. Colonel LINDSAY wisbedto know on what principle the barracks at Dover, Plymcuth, Winchester, and Gos port wore to be established—vhether on the old system or a new one. He gave the Ordnance credit for what they had done. The letters frog the East proved that the Biitish soldiers were well deserving of care, and he did not think that the Government or Parliament had done all that was in their power. Several of the barracks were not sufficiently commodious. It was necessary, too, for the comfort of the soldiers that they should have a day-room. The soldier had no place but the canteen. He had no place to sit, or write, or talk, and the consequence was, that he found he was more comfortable out of barracks than in. It must be a great point to ensble the soldier to live in barracks. Another point whiol required attention was, that a sretem still exi-,tiel in sine re ,, irnents of allowing otueu to live ~ iv leg iu the barrack rooms. Lodging-money was allowed, but the amount was not sufficient. He saw that the Ordnance were now in troducing gas in the barracks, after it had been pressed on them by him for years. Sir J. PAXTON desired to know if the huts specified required what could not be carried out in this country. The hon. gentleman the Clerk of the Ordnance stated that there was no difficulty in procuring the timber specified ; but he (Sir J. Paxton) should like to know if the huts were being erected according to the specification, two thirds of the timber being Christiana deal? Lord HOTHAM was quite sure that the committee—if they were aware of the present state of the pelt of Hull— would not be surprised at the anxiety expressed by the in habitants of that town with respect to its defenceless con dition. It should be recollected that Hull is the great emporium of the trade of the North of Europe, and of late years there had been a great deal of accommodation fur nished by the dock company of that port. Mr. M. SMITH called attention to the vote for the defence of the river Thames, and also to an item for 2,000/. for the erection of buildings for the accommodation of military lunatics at Fort Pitt. It seemed contrary to com mon sense that a lunatic asylum for the whole army should be placed in the middle of Fort Pitt, where unfortunate invalids were now experiencing comfort after their return from the Crimea. Sir G. TYLER had urged upon the Government the necessity of establishing defences along the coast, and did so with the conviction that the Bristol Channel was not sufficiently defended. He had called attention particu larly to the ports of Cardiff and Swansea, and he hoped a portion of the grant intended for the protection of harbours along the coast would be applied to the defence of those two ports to which ho referred. Mr. WILLIAMS called attention to the fact that the veto for the building rew barracks last year amounted to 871,0001., and the vote fc.r the repair of existing barracks amounted to 285,0001., making a total of 1,156,0001. In the present year there was a vote for 300,0001. for wooden huts, which were to be used as barracks, making altogether a sum of 1,456,0001. voted for barrack accommodation in the past and present year. Assuming the army in the United Kingdom to amount to 60,000, that would give a sum of 251. for the barrack accommodation of each man, which was about one-half the sum that was paid for well-built cottages for the labouring classes in the agricultural and manufacturing districts. It appeared to him to be mon strous that the soldier was not better accommodated than almost any other class when that enormous expenditure took place. He thought the question should be referred to a committee for the purpose of inquiring how this vast ex penditure had been incurred. It appeared that there was a vote of upwards of half a million for fortificatiops ; but out of the sum granted for barrack accommodation there had been only a sum of 1,0001. applied to Liverpool, and out of the sum required for fortifications only 12,0001. was applied to Liverpool. He should like to know what had been the cost incurred for barracks in this country during the last twenty or thirty years? Of Mr. MONs' .. .ELL observed that a groat number of their troops during the war had been lodged in barracks, but those barracks, through a principle of false economy, were disposed of in time of peace. A question had been asked as to whether any description of amusement bad been provided for the men, and it would be found that some of the barracks were prov Lied with racket courts. An bon: member had observed that the canteens were only let to the Ist of September; the reason for that arrangement was that the Government was prepared to considerthe question of canteens, and were most anxious to introduce some im provements in the arrangement of them. In answer to another question, he could state that the barracks would be constructed on the newest principle. His attention had been very much turned during the last year to the state of the barracks in the metropolis. Ho quite agreed in what was said by an hon. and gallant gentleman with regard to the barrack in Portman-street ; but it was only kept from year to year, and they would get rid of it as soon as pos sible. They, however, found it difficult to get a proper site for barracks at a convenient distance from the Horse Guards, and at this side of the river. With regard to the question put to him respecting the erection of a military asylum at Fort Pitt, he must refer the hon. gentleman who asked for information to the Secretary-at-War. Sir J. Y. BULLER said it was the fault of preceding Governments that such a large expenditure was now neces sary for providing barrack accommodation. In the place where his regiinent was stationed there wore only a few small barracks for the reception of the men, and the great outlay for barracks was now absolutely necessary. A large sum was expended on the lines at Plymouth, and it must be considered that that money was thrown away. When the lines were condemned by the late Duke of Wellington, it was to be regretted that such an expenditure had taken place. He wished, in conclusion, to draw attention to the absence of warm water ' or warm baths, in tho military hospital at Devonport. Ho thought it would be of great assistance to the sick and wounded arriving from the Crimea if some accommodation of that sort could be provided. Mr. COWAN was not aware whether any provision was made in these estimates for erecting fortifications in Scot land. The east coast from Peterhead to Berwick-on-Tweed was very unprotected, and since there was a large amount of property exposed to danger in that district he hoped the claims of Scotland would not be lest sight of. He wished to ask the hon. Secretary to tha Board of Ordnance if it was true that a gentleman named Andrews had offered to erect six or seven fortresses on the east coast of Scotland at an expense of about 20,0001. for the whole. That gentle man, he understood, at the instance of the Board of Ord nance, had made a survey of the Island of Inchkeith with a view to the erection of fortresses ; bat that, survey was not deemed to be sufficient, and, under the direction of the officers of the Ordnance, Mr. Andrews made a second survey, which was upon a considerably more extensive scale than tho first. Mr. Andrews, with a patriotic spirit that did him great credit, claimed no remuneration for himself, but he wished to be reimbursed the expenses he had been put to, and ik was to be hoped his claim in that respect would be allowed. Colonel NORTH confirmed the statement of the hop. member for Devonshire with respect to the barracks at Devonport. Twenty-five years ago he was quartered there, and although the barracks were then in a disgraceful state he believed nothing had been done to improve them, nor had anything been done to improve the c itad e l of Ply mouth, which was in precisely the same state now that it was twenty-five years ago. Mr. DUNLOP urged upon the Government the necessity of erecting fortifications for the protection of the chipping of Greenock. After a few words from Colonel LINDSAY, Sir DE LACY EVANS said he believed a false economy had hitherto prevailed with regard to the erection of barracks and the accommodation provided in them for the soldier. Now, some few years ago a commission was appointed to inquire into the state of the barracks in Prussia, France, and other continental States; but the report of that com mission, though made at the public expense, had never been laid before Parliament. If it had, he believed it would have demonstrated that the barrack 'accommodation pro vided far the soldier in France, and two or three other con tinental States, was far superior to that afforded by the British Government. (Hear.) There was some hoe. goa -1 tlemen holding office who entertained the notion that it was better to accustom the British soldier to hardships in barracks than to provide him with ordinary comforts. it was thought, indeed, that such a training would better enable him to rough it in foreign service, but he doubted that very much, because the officers, when they were obliged to rough it, were able to do so quite as well as the privates. The fact was, the system which 'these gentle men advocated was not only injurious to the health of the soldiers, but it also deterred men of a better class of so ciety from entering the army. Now the importance of this question could hardly be overrated, because experience had always proired that au army selected from a better class of men was far more efficient than an army raised from the lowest orders of the people. For instance, honourable members, perhaps, would rememb er th e co/IL versation betweec Oliver Cromwell and some other man of the time as to the difficulties he had in obtainiug troops capable of resisting the cavaliers at the commencement of the civil war; it was represented to him that his army was then composed of mere tapsters and persons of an inferiorclass of society, who could not resist in the field the sons of parents of the better class who enlisted under the royal standard. (Hear.) Now, it appeared to him that the only cause of the difficulty of obtaining the sons of far mers and shopkeepers for the army was the bad barrack accommodation provided for the soldier. (Hear.) The sol diers as well as the officers were quite prepared to encoun ter the difficulties of the field, to lie in tents or anything else, or upon the ground, when necessity required it, but they objected to being left in a state of discomfort while they Overeat home. (Hear.) Depend upon it, if Parliament wished to raise the moral condition of the army, the bar rack accommodation must be improved, and that being so, ho, for one, could not understand the reluctance which Government invariably evinced to bringing these estimates prominently forward. It was absuri to think that in this metropolis, the greatest that ever existed in the world, there was only barrack accommodation, and that of the worst de scription, for about 3,000 men. (hoar.) Besides, it was notorious that there were one or two barracks in the metro polis which wore totally unfit for the maintenance of the health of the troops. Medical men who had directed their attention to the subject had stated that it required a car teln number nr .üblv fwb nf for tee preservanon of health—the number he believed was 800 feet per man—and yet there were several barracks in the me' ropolis which (lid not contain half that quantity of air. With regard to the camp at Aldershott, being ignorant of its details, he was not prepared to speak upon it; but be certainly was rather sur prised at the, speech of the right hon. gentleman the mem ber for Coventry ; it led him to eepect that we were about to have a general election. (A. laugh.) The right hon. gentleman seemed to think that this was only a maritime country ; but the disasters of the Lest few months had shown that if we Over o not essentially a military nation, at all events we had not sufficient military means at our disposal. Mr. W. BROWN called attention to some huts which had recently been exhibited at Willis's Rooms. They could be divided into four parts, the whole weighing 18cwt., and each quarter 44 cwt. They were glazed, double-boarded, and lined with india:-rubber. They could be taken down in four minutes, and put up in eleven. The cost was 221. 10s. each. Colonel DUNNE deprecated the practice of building small barracks all over the country. It was much better to have an extensive barracks at a fixed spot, where the troops could be concentrated and easily removed to any quarter where their services might be required. If a large town, such as Sheffield, required the assistance of troops for their own protection, they ought to contribute to th e ir su pp or t, and provide the barracks themselves ; but those troops which were needed for the service of the whole country should be brought together in ono barracks. With regard to what had fallen from the hon, member for Wigan as to the canteen sysfero, he could assure the committee that the system both at home and abroad was perfectly disgusting. It was the practice of the Government to let the canteen to the highest bidder, and the consequence was, the worst wines and spirits were sold in them. (Hear.) He observed in the estimates that there was an item for erecting stores and a hospital in the Tower; now, as he happened to know that there was only one site vacant in the Tower, he should be glad to bo informed if either the stores or the hospital was to be erected outside the Tower. (Hear.) Mr.OTWAY observed that there was an item of 2,000/. put down' for providing accommodation at Fort Pitt for the lunatics of the army ; but he would suggest that such ac commodation could be morn economically provided, while greater comforts could be insured to . the lunatics them selves, if Government had recourse to some of the large lunatic establishments of the country. (Hear.) Mr. A. PELLATT asked for some explanation of the item 3,5601. for the erection of chapel schools at Sheerness. He wanted to know whether a school or a chapel was re quired ; and if the latter, would there be any additional expense in providing a chaplain ? There was also an item of 6,0001. for new officers' barracks at Sheerness, What did this mean ? Mr. MONSELL replied that there had been some new barracks built for the soldiers, and now there were new ones required -for the officers who commanded them: As to the item for chapel schools, the building would be used as a school on week days, and for the purpose of celebrat ing divine service on Sundays ; but there would be no ex tra charge for the services of a chaplain, That matter was not in his department, and therefore he Nit ,ul3 not oiTor any explanation of it. In answer to the obacrvatis,bq or hon. and gallant member opposite upon the barracks at Winchester, he begged to say that there was no barracks at present existing which could be used for the accommo dation of the officers, and it was therefore intended to pro vide them now. The hon. and gallant, membar also com plained that the barracks at Aldershott was temporary; but the truth was, that they proposed to erect permanent bar racks for 10,000 men, which would be constructed accord ing to the most approved plans followed in France an r Bel glum, as ascertained by the commission of eraiaeer officers. He quite agreed with the hon. and gallanf member, and the member for Wigan, that it Was extremely desirable to promote the comfort of the soldiers in barracks, and that object had not been lost sight of in the present estimates. On the Ship-street barracks in Dublin, a sum of 5,030/. had been already expended ; they had commenced the con centration of troops in that city, and hoped that the system might be found advisable in future years. As regarded harbours, he was happy to assure the hon. member for Edinburgh that Scotland has been very liberally treated. At Dunbar alb whole battery was to be restored, at Leith considerable fortifications were to be erected for the de fence of the harbours and roads, and at Arbroath, Aber deen, Peterhead, as well as in the Orkney and Shetland Islands, and in the Clyde, the old batteries were to ba restored, and new ones constructed, whilst at Banff the question of restoring a battery was under consideration. With regard to the Tower, certain storehouses, which were absolutely necessary, would be erected, as well as an hos pital outside, which would not interfere with the stores. Mr. ADDERLEY wished to observe, in reference to the exaggerated threat of a new Kafir war, that he thought it was high time that the Cape of Good Hope, having now a representative government, should undertake its own de fence. The only force which could really defend the coun try were the volunteers, local troops, militia, &c. With respect to the disturbances at the diggings in Victoria, the colonists themselves should be called upon to suppress them. We had already very much reduced our force there, and thought it would be a wise policy of we discontinued the very small forces still kept there, which induced the colo nistsito lean on England, and to neglect the development of their own defensive means. Mr. MONSELL assured his honourable friend that the attention of the Government had been directed to the sub ject. They had taken steps this year to withdraw the gar risons from all places in Canada, except Quebec and King ston. In Australia, the military force was at present about one-fourth of what it was. In regard to the Cape, the ne cessity of the large expenditure proposed arose from the removal of the head-quarters to Graham's Town. It was impossible to effect the desired object at once, but conside rable progress towards it had been made. Mr: M. CHAMBERS thought it highly desirable that, when a Government contract was ordered, the fullest in formation should be given to all who were in a situation to tender for it. If it were not contemplated that the war was to last for ever, he saw no advantage in building addi tional barracks for 50,000 men. Mr. LABOUCHERE wished to ask whether, before these estimates were formed, any general survey of the barrack accommodation of the United Kingdom had been made by competent persons ? Mr. MONSELL said that a most minute and careful in vestigation had been made. H e h a d s t a t e d a f ew n i g ht s ago to the house that they would be deficient in barrack accommodation to the extent of somewhere about 70,000 men when the whole of the militia were embodied. They now proposed to provide accommodation for 50,0;10 men, and were at present constructing barracks for 30,001 Lord SEYMOUR wanted to know what was the present amount of barrack accommodation for infantry and cavalry existing in the country, and what was the force Government expected to get from the'embodied militia? It was de sirable that the house should net be led, as it often had been, into useless expense. As to the contract system, there was a great deal of deception in reference to pre tences to cheapness, as very often what w a s th o u g ht a good bargain for the -overnment turned out a very expen sive one. Mr. MONSELL said it would be his duty in -a few days to make a statement to the house in regard to some altera tions which were to be-made in the Ordnance, which would satisfy the noble lord that the subject of contracts had been most carefully attended to, and he trusted that any faults existing under the old system might be removed under the new. One great point towards the improve ►nent of the barrack system would be to get rid of that multitude of small barracks scattered over the country, many of them holding under 200 men, which he thought were perfect pests, not merely on economical, but on social and political grounds. The document to which' he had re ferred as being the basis of the estimates was not a report, but simply a calculation showing the number of troops which would be added to the present by the embodied ' Mr. FITZROY thought large barracks capable of accom modating considerable numbrs of troops, with plenty of ground for exercise and manoeuvres, far preferable to a great number of small barracks, each accommodating only an insignificant number of men. The vote was then agreed to. The vote of 158,1361. for the scientific branch of the ser vice was agreed to. On the ioto of 197,657/, for the non-effective services, Colonel NORTH said that he believed good service pensions were included in this vote, and he wished to ask whether any4liing had been done to mark the approbation of tho Government for the services of the subalterns of the artillery during the last campaign ? There was not in that branch of the force the usual meane of rewarding by pro motion. He thought that when subalterns got their com pany, they ought, if they performed distinguished services, to receive the rank of brevet-major. . Mr. MONSELL said that he had no control over this mat ter, but would lay before the proper authorities the sug gestion of the gallant colonel. The vote was agreed to, and the chairman reported pro gress. The house then resumed. THE LUNATIC ASYLUMS (IRELAND) BILL. On the order for the second reading of this bill, Mr. POLLARD-UE,QUILART moved that the bill be read a second time that day six months. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER suggested that the best plan would be for Irish members to meet the Government and make their suggestions, which would of course be duly considered. Such a mod e o f proceeding would be more likely to bring the matter to a satisfactory termi nation than referring the bill to a select committee. Mr. Sergeant SHEE asked whether, in the event of the Irish members differing from the Government, the Govern ment would then consent to refer the bill to a select com mittee? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER replied that if the result of the conference should not be satisfactory, Irish members would still have the right to move that the bill be referred to a select committee. Their position would not be at all damaged, and they would stand in just as good a position as they did before the second reading of the bill. Mr. DISRAELI said the bill appeared to him to be a bill of indemnity to the Government. Such - a bill, if not viewed with suspicion, ought at least to be looked a t w ith considerable vigilance by the house. Some hon. members, it appeared, thought it would be convenient to discuss the matter at the Treasury chambers, imagining the difficul tiei which now existed would then disappear, and this was evidently the opinion of the right hon. gentleman, but in the meantime tie asked the house to read the bill a .tecond time. He (Mr. Disraeli) did not object to the propriety of Ministers of the Crown cultivating .a frank acquaintance with inembers'of the house ; but it was preposterous, when difficulties arose, that a Minis or should propose to make those difficulties vanish by private communications behind the Speaker's chair or at th Treasury, 'asking the house at the same time to assent to the principle of the measure. The proper course would be to postpone the second readine , until the difficulties could be settled. N o thi ng cou ld be e more inconvenient and unconstitutional th in the habit, which was growing into a practice, of conducting public affairs, not with reference to the opinion of the House of Commons or the House of Lords, but by an understanding to be arrived at between Ministers and piivate members of Parliament under the influence of ()facial quarters. • If the right hon. gentleman really believed that grave objec tions existed to the measure, and that they might be re moved by frank explanation of a private character, he was justified in taking the course which he proposed ; but he was not justified in now pressing the bill to a second read ing. Lord PALMERSTON said, if he understood the matter rightly, this was not exactly a bill of indemnity to the Government. He believed the irregularity had been going on for a considerable time, and was equally applicable to other Governments. The difference which existed was more in appearance than reality. The bill could not be referred to a select committee until it had been read a second time, and therefore, in order to attain the object sought by hon. members, it was necessary that the motion for the second reading should be agreed to. If no agree ment were come to between the Irish members and his right hon. friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer, it would then be as competent for any member to move the reference of the bill to a select committee as it was at present. Mr. S. FITZGERALD thought that there ought to be a distinct understanding that if an agreement wero not come to the bill should be referred to a seloot committee. Mr. HORSMAN said that if the house now assented to the second reading, and it turned out afterwards that, in the conference which the Chancellor of the Exchequer had invited, the matters about which there was a difference of opiuion could not be adjusted, there was no doubt that the Government would feel that it would be proper to refer the bill to a select committee. Mr. URQUHART withdrew his motion, and the bill was then read a second time. The Luiaatic Regulation Act Amendment Bill was read a second time. The Marine Mutiny Bill was read a third time and passed, as was also the Ecclesiastical Courts Bill. DEAN FOREST, &c., BILL. The house went into committee on this bill, the several clauses of which were agreed to. METROPOLITAN LOCAL MANAGEMENT. Sir B. HALL postponed his motion for leave to intro duce a bill for the better local management of the metro polis until Monday next. Some returns were ordered, and the house adjourned shortly after eleven. MR. SHIEL'S LEGAL AND POLITICAL ►SKETCHES. Those who remember Mr. Shiel as he appeared in his later days in the House of Commons will recognise, in these volumes, much of the vehemence and fire for which that eloquent orator was distinguished. They give proof of the hold which his native country had over his mind. We have sketches of the ornaments of the Irish Bar at that day—Bushe, Saurin, Joy, Leslie, Foster,' Lord Norbury, &c.; together with papers on the state of Ireland, and the conduct of th 6 men who then wielded her destinies. Altogether these volumes will constitute an interesting monument of the memory of their author, as well as a vivid picture of a state of society which is fast passing away.—Morning Chronicle.

NOTTINGHAM, March B.—There has bee❑ very little, if any, improvement in the lace trade during the week, the GermEn and Dublin► orders having been very small. The hosiery trade is a shade brisker, which may be at tributed to the fineness of the weather and the fall in the spring markets for agricultural produce, particulaily meat and breadetuffs.
