The SPEAKER took the chair at 12 o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The following bills were read a third time and passed : Handcock's Estate, Jones' Divorce, Lord Clarmont's Estate, and Marshall's Charity. The Lords' amendments to the Westminster Lands Bill were considered and agreed to. SERJEANT BRODIE AND THE CANTERBURY MILITARY OFFICERS. In reply to the fo►lowing questions from Mr. STANLEY, whether Seijeant Saddler Brodie, of the Ist Dragoons, at Canterbury, had received any order to join the regi ment on foreign service, after 19 years of civilian duty as saddler ; if he bad been specially examined by the surgeon, and reported as unfit fcr duty ; if he is recom mended for pension ; and if any inquiry bad been made in the Crimea by General Sir W. Scarlett into the con duct of Captain Fitz wygram to wards Cornet Baumgarten, and, if so, if any report had been made to the Horse Guards Mr. PEEL said that Serjeant Brodie had been found unfit by the colonel of the regiment to which he belonged for active service at home, and the reason he had not been put on the pension list was because he had not served a sufficient time. With respect to Captain Fitz wygram, from an inquiry issued by Colonel Scarlett, that officer had been exonerated from the charges that had been made against him with reference to the affairs at Canterbury, and he had nothing to do with the prac tical jokes perpetrated on Cornet Baumgarten. BURIAL BILL. On the motion for the third reading of this bill several amendments were moved and negatived without a divi- sion. Viscount EBRINGTON then moved the insertion of the following clause :—Whereas the diversity of arrange ments required by different bishops as the condition of their consecrating burial grounds have occasioned much perplexity to the people and reproach to the Church of England, and also much inconvenience to the inhabi tants of certain towers engaged in providing public burial grounds, under the acts 16 and 17 Vict., chap. 134, and 17 and 18 Vict., chap. 87 : Be it enacted,—That nothing in those acts contained shall render it necessary for the burial board of any town or parish to do more than prove, to the satisfaction of the Secretary of State, that they have provided a fit and proper burial ground, with such lines of demarcation between the parts intended for the interment of members of the Church of England and persons not belonging to that Church respectively as have been generally deemed requisite, and that having done so they have invited the bishop of the diocese to consecrate the said first-men ' tioned part of such burial ground ; and in the event of such bishop, as the condition of his con-eerating the same, requiring the construction of walls er other unreasonable and unseemly partitions between the several parts of the said burial ground, contrary to the determination of the said burial board, it shall be •lawful, notwithstanding, for one of her Majesty's principal Secretaries of State, in his discretion, to declare the provisions of the said act to have been sufficiently complied with in respect of pro viding a consecrated part of such burial ground ; and no proceedings shall be institute 1 against any minister of the Church of England on account of his having offi ciated at any interment in such ground after it has been so approved by the Secretary of State, and before its consecration by the bishop of the diocese. Mr. FERGUSSON seconded the adoption of the clause proposed by the noble lord, considering it calcu lated to put an end to the evils complained of. Sir G. GREY did not see the good that was to be effected by the clause proposed by the noble lord, nor did he think it`was called for by the public. He must therefore vote against it. Mr. HENLEY—Considering that the operation of the clause would make confusion worse confounded, and would impose on the Secretary of State a task of great difficulty, felt bound to oppose it. Sir H. WILLOUGHBY thought that the question of boundary should be left to the Burial Board, and that a short clause to that effect would do all that the noble lord required. Mr. W. J. FOX, thinking the clause most beneficial, would give it his support. Mr. PELLATT supported the clause, thinking its provisions necessary. Mr.WIGRAM thought that as long as burial grounds were consecrated, the parties officiating ought to be pro perly qualified. Mr. J. G. PHILLIMORE supported the clause, thinking that Dissenters ought to have the privilege of the services of their own clergymen at their own burials. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL objected to the clause, thinking it wouid not effect the object the noble lord had in view. Mr. HADFIELD trusted that the noble lord would persevere in the clause, and divide the house upon it. Mr. BARROW objected to the clause. Mr. BELL supported the clause. After some observations from Mr. Cowper, Mr. Spooner, Viscount Ebrington, Sir George Grey, and Mr. Malins, The house divided, when the numbers were, For the second reading of the clause 26 Against it 29 Majority The clause was accordingly thrown out. Mr. BELL, in the absence of Mr. Miall, moved the insertion of the following clauses :—" 1. Where any unconsecrated burial grounds have been closed under the herein recited acts, it shall be lawful to provide a new burial ground under such and the present acts to be either in part or wholly unconsecrated, notwithstanding that the parochial burial ground may not have been closed. 2. Where for any reason it may be deemed undesirable to erect in the consecrated part of a burial ground a chapel for the performance of Divine service, it shall be obligatory on the burial ground to erect a chapel on the unconsecrated part thereof, unless it shall be determined by three fourths of the vestry that the same is undesir able and unnecessary, as hereinbefore provided. 3. All notices relative to the closing of burial grounds, or of vestry meetings to be held in pursuance of this and of the herein recited acts, shall be affixed to the doors of all places of worship in the respective parishes to which they refer. Each of them, however, after a short discussion, was rejected without divisions. Mr. PE LLATT, who had also given notice of a clause respecting fees and payments for interments, withdrew it. The bill was afterwards read a third time and passed. CRIMINAL JUSTICE BILL. On the order of the day for the adjourned debate upon the addition of a clause providing an appeal to Quarter Sessions, The clause was negatived without any discussion. Mr. M'MAILON then proposed the insertion of a clause, the object of which he stated was to prevent frivolous and vexatious prosecutions, by empowering magistrates to award to the defendant his costs, and also an allowance for loss o f t ime in case of acquittal, which expenses should be paid by the prosecutor ; and in cases where the prosecution should appear to be malicious or vexatious, that the justices should have further power to award to the defendant a further sum of money not exceeding 201. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said that this clause was most objectionable, and was utterly at variance with the established principle and practice of criminal law in this country. Mr. WATSON a'elo 3ontietnned the Seroeney of such a elaese to introduce. iojuri 0123 eleineet into eee minisLral.ion of toe law ; though ho ad.nitted that the question as to tho propriety of compensating prisoners in cases of malicious or vexatious prosecutions was well worthy of consideration at some future period. He further thought that the principle on which the bill itself was founded was bad ; and that, although we were much indebted to the magistracy for the zealous and conscientious manner in which they discharged their duties, the country could scarcely have confidence in them as competent persons to be entrusted with sum mary jurisdiction in criminal cases. Mr. HENLEY opposed the amendment, and Mr. HADFIELD supported it. Mr. J. G. PHILLIMORE said that although he was of opinion that the public ought to compensate prisoners who bad been unjustly accused, he did not approve of the means by which this bill sought to attain that object. After some further discussion the clause was negatived without a division. Mr. M‘MAHON then moved the omission from the third clause, "or larceny, or a clerk, or servant, or em bezzlement, or obtaining property by false pretences, or attempting to obtain property by false pretences." These were offences punishable, some of them with trans portation for life, and power was here given to two jus tices sitting in a back parlour in a public-house to try Cases which even courts of Quarter Sessions were pro hibited from dealing with. Mr. J. G. PHILLIMORE supported the amend ment. Mr. R. PALMER thought the better course would be to leave out the clause altogether. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL hoped the house would pass the clause in some form, believing that it contained the germs of great good. Mr. WATSON supported the amendment of the hon. member ter Wexford, thinking that the clause ought to be modified in some respect. Mr. BAINES thought the suggestion of the hon. and learned member for Wexford entitled to great conside ration. Mr. HENLEY supported the amendment of the hon. and learned member for Wexford. Mr. BARROW would be sorry to see the clause struck out altogether, thinking that it might be amended so as to affect the greatest good. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL for Ireland concurred in the amendment of the hon. and learned member for Wexford. After some furthet - discussion the clause, as proposed to be amended by the Attorney-General, was agreed to. Mr. M‘MAHON then move,l an amendment limiting the jurisdiction of the justices to the punishment of three in-tend of six months. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL thought the clause as it at present existed did not give too great a power to the justices. The amendment, after a short discussion, was nega tived without a division. The clause as amended was then agreed to. Clause 17, giving compensation to the clerk of the peace, Mr. J. S. PHILLIMORE moved that it be struck out. The house divided upon the amendment, when there appeared— For the amendment. Against it Majority against the amendment The bill was then read a third time and passed. CRIME AND OUTRAGE (IRELAND) ACT CONTINUANCE BILL. The house having gone into committee on this bill, Mr. HORSMAN agreed that the bill should expire on the Ist of July next year, instead of the 31st of August. After some discussion this bill passed through commit. tee, and was ordered to be reported to-morrow. The Turnpike Trust Arrangement Bill, the Lunatic Asylum and Regula•lon Acts Amendment Bill, the Chinese Passengers' Ships Bill, and the Sale of Spirits (Ireland) Bill, as amended by the Lords were agreed to. The Lords' Amendments to the School Grants Secu rity for Application Bill were ordered to be considered to-morrow. EAST INDIA COMPANY'S REVENUE ACCOUNTS. Lord DUNCAN brought up the report, which was agreed to, and ordered to be laid on the table. CHARITABLE TRUSTS BILL. The amendments to this bill were considered and agreed to, and the bill ordered to be read a third time to-morrow. LEASES AND SALES OF SETTLED ESTATES BILL. On the house going into committee on this bill, Mr. WHITESIDE suggested the propriety of post poning such an important measure till the next session. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL objected. The bill had been carefully considered by a select committee of the Lords, and it was necessary it should be proceeded with. The question was then put and carried, and the house went into committee on the bill. C!anses 1 to 19 were, after some verbal amendments, agreed to. On clause 20 being put, which prevents the Court of Chancery from granting an application for the lease of property, where a previous application bad been made to Parliament for an act and refused, Mr. WHITESIDE moved its omission. The SOLICITOR.GENERA.L, for various reasons, supported the clause.. After some discussion, in which Mr. MALINS and Mr. BUTT took part, The SOLICITOR-GENERAL suggested, as there was not a sufficient number of members present to admit of a division on the cause, and in order to save time at that advanced period of the evening, that the Chairman re port progress and ask leave to sit again. He accord ingly made a formal motion to that effect. After a few words from Mr. Whiteside, Mr. Watson, and Mr. Butt, The motion was put and agreed to, and the house re sumed. DESPATCH OF BUSINESS (COURT OF CHANCERY) BILL. On the order of the day for going into committee on this bill, Mr. HADFIELD moved that the house go into com mittee on the bill this day three months, contending that there was not now sufficient time remaining before the termination of the session for giving it that patient and attentive consideration that its importance de manded. Mr. MALINS said that as ten minutes only re mained at their disposal for going into committee, little or no progress could he made to-day at all events. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said that would be suNcient to enable him to get through the most import ant clauses. Mr. HADFIELD pressed his amendment to a di vision, when the numbers were-- For the motion Against it (Loud laughter.) Tho house then went into committee pro forma, and the Chairman reported progress immediately. Some other business on the paper having been dis posed of, the house adjourned a few minutes before six o'clock. . 35 OFFICIAL DESPATCH FROM THE CRIMEA. (From a Supplement to Tuesday's Gazette.)

The committee re-assembled this morning shortly be fore one o'clock, there being present Mr. Saholefield, chairman ; Lord Goderich, Mr. Otway, and Mr. Kin naird, and the Hon. Mr. Villiers. The first witness called was Mr. Boddington, solici tor of Leamington, and chairman of the Local Board of Health in that town. He stated in effect that he concurred generally in the evidence given by Mr. Redwood and Mr. Phillips, tend ing to show that adulterations of food, &c., had been much oVer-rated. He thought certain restrictions upon tradesmen for the protection of consumers would operate beneficially ; but he at the same time considered that the admixture of inno cuous ingredients with some articles such as chicory with coffee—was-quite justifiable, because it con tributed to reduce their price. In the case of coffee, he thought that it could not be sold to the consumer at such a low price as it was now unless chicory was to some extent mixed with it. In short, he thought it quite sufficient for the consumer if he obtained the article he required at the lowest possible price. If the competi tion, which at present resulted in a reduction of price upon articles of common consumption—though these articles were harmlessly adulterated—were inter fered with, it would produce a series of small monopolies in the genuine article, which would _b e e extremely inconvenient, as well as unjust to the p By Mr. Villiers—He must be understood, i n what he had said, to draw a distinction between articles adul terated with ingredients of a del eterious or injurious nature, and those which were merely mixed with inno cent ingredients ; but he could not commit himself to draw the line between them. Th e e xamination of Mr. P ost g m ate was afterwards re ed, and occup ied the attention of the Committee s u u etil very shortly before they rose, ADMINISTRATIVE REFORM ASSOCIATION. A meeting of the friends of this association took place tills morning at the L'ndon Tavern, Bishopsgate street ; Mr. S. Morley in the chair. There was a very meagre attendance, not 50 persons being present at the commencement of the proceedings. A voluminous re port of the committee appointed in May last was read, and unanimously adopted. The meeting was addressed by the chairman, Mr. Miall, M.P., Mr. Tite, M.P., and other gentlemen, and resolutions in accordance with the views of the meeting were agreed to. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

DiR EADFUL DEATH.—A. melancholy occurrence, re- snit in g in the death of a young lady named Kirkpatrick, has just happened at Llandudno North Wales. The dec eased, who was on a visit from Birkenhead, was tak flag an eve n i ng walk on the bills, when she ap pt.( ached th e e d ge of a precipice where the ground was to sil appearance firm, b ut i n a f ew m i nu t e s the . earth ga , 45 way, s h e m i ssed her footing, and was precip itated to a considerable depth beneath. When picked up the bod y was found to be considerably shattered, and death mui it, have been almost instantaneous. TURKISH LOAN BILL. On the motion that this bill be read a third time, Earl GREY, aft er com pl a i n ing of the abse nce of the Secretary of State for War and the Secretary for Fo reign Affairs, said there never was a bill brought before Parliament which was liable to stronger objection, and that quite irrespective of the policy of the war. In the then state of the house it would be perfectly idle for him to enter further into the subject ; and he should only say that he disapproved most strongly of the measure. Earl GE,ANVILLE explained the cause of absence from the house at that moment of the Secretary for War and the Secretary for Foreign Affairs, and made some playful observations in reference to his noble friend (Earl Grey) complaining of that absence just after he had re turned to the house from a six weeks' sojourn in the country. Earl GREY said he had not made it any matter of re proach that so few peers were present. The bill was then read a third time and passed, Earl Grey saying, with marked emphasis, "Not content," on the question that it pass baying been put. RAISING SUNKEN VESSELS. The Earl of HARDWICKE presented a petition from a gentleman named Mr. Edward Austen, the inventor of a patented plan fir raising sunken vessels, and also for lifting them over bars. The petitioner stated that he had laid his plan before the Admiralty Board, and they had reported favourably of the plan, but in consequence of the board's hesitation to adopt the ap paratus, the petitioner applied to the Turkish ambas sador, who on the part of his Government was disposed to accept the plan, and the petitioner applied to the Board of Admiralty for a copy of the report in order to lay it before the Turkish authorities. The statements contained in the petition were highly important and in teresting, and deserved the most serious consideration of her Majesty's Government at this particular moment. The noble lord proceeded to read a number of letters, all speaking in the highest praise of the invention, and stated that there could be no doubt of its value. The Board of Ail niralty had declined to produce the report a-ked for, aid the petitioner therefore applied to this house for redress. Lord REDESDALE presented a petition from the Man tester Chamber of Commerce against the .Limited Li%bility Bill. LUNATIC ASYLUMS (IRELAND) ADVANCES BILL. NAVIGATION WORKS (IRELAND BILL. Lord STANLEY of ALDERLEY moved, that as the Lunatic Asylums (Ireland) Advances Bill and the Navigation Works (Ireland) Bill relate almost exclu sively to the repayment or application of moneys granted by Parliament, and so far as such provisions are con cerned may be mid a second time as bilis of aid or sup ply, and as no objection has been raised to any of the said bills, it is expedient that the same be allowed to proceed if the house shall thick fit so to order. The motion was agreed to, and the bills were read a second time. ISLAND OF TOBAGO LOAN BILL. This bill pagseil through eommittt,e. ORDNANCE BOARD BILL. On the motion that the circumatances which rendered legislation necessary on the subject-matter of this bill were of such urgency as to require immediate consi deration. Earl GREY s?,.;(1 no difficulty had existed to prevent this bill being brought forward at a much earlier period of the session. . . Lord PANMITRE said a few words in reply, in the course of which he explained that the object of the bill was simply to transfer the management of the Board of Ordnance to the Secretary of State for War. That arrange ment bad been tried for some time, and so far as it had gone be had every reason to believe that it had wiirked satisfa.etorily to the public service, and that it would re sult in a considerable saving of expenditure. The motion for suspending the standing order was agreed to, and the bill was read a second time. THE APPROPRIATION BILL. The Appropriation Bill was introduced and read a first time. The house adjourned at ton minutes past nine o'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS-(YESTERDAY.) CONSOLIDATED FUND (APPROPRIATION) BILL. On the order of the day for the third reading of this Lord J. RUSSELL rose and said he wished to offer a few remarks to the house on this subject. He le lieved, whether we considered the amount of money voted this year by the house, or whether we looked at the prospect before us, it was a matter of deep importance. Taking these matters into considera tion, if we look to the prosperity of the war, and, ,00king, to our navy, great as it was, it was evident the enemy did not mean to meet us in that way. We were now in the month of August, and the prospects were not more favourable. With respect to our prospect in the Black Sea, there was danger to Turkey on the Asiatic frontier. He was in hopes there would be some strength afforded by a foreign enlistment bill, but in that hope he was disappointed. Still no such force had been sent to the scene of action, and therefore, with regard to the Asiatic frontier, we had no decisive prospect of safety there. The force now in the Crimea would be met by a large Russian army, increased by large forces from Poland and other places. Those were matters of very great importance,. and such as re quired the utmost consideration. It would be the business of the Government to consider the moans for the next cam pa:gn but on that he wished to say nothing, for already too much publicity had been given to those measures. It was not his intention to revive the discussion of the 'other evening with regard to a particular proposition of limitation or counterpoise, or any other scheme by which the preponderance of Russia should be put an end to in the Black Sea, but to refer partly to what had occurred, and partly to the future. With regard to himself, although he entirely acquiesced in the decision of his noble friend the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, that it was advantage • ous for the public service that his despatche • containing 'an account of his proceedings at Vienna► could not be produced, he hoped the time would come when they might be given entire, without garbling or omissions—when Parliament and the country would be enabled to form a correct estimate of his motives and conduct. It would have been observed that the Turkish Ambassador at Vienna, who was a man as conversant with European affairs as any person he had met with, and knew the interests of his own country, had n ,t stated his dissatisfaition of the terms proposed by the Austrian Governinent, nor had they heard whe- ther the proposition was received id a similar manner at Constantinople as it was at London and Paris; and if not the Turkish Government must have been of opinion that the terms proposed by Austria were sufficient for the security of Turkey. If, therefore, the course of the war had been changed, and they were called on to continue it for the maintenance of the military and naval reputa tion of England and France, and not for the security of Turkey, no doubt Turkey, as they had been the means of saving her,would contribute to their assistance ; but, in that case, there must be no more Turkish loans and guarantees, but they must give her downright plain. subsidies. Such, he thought, must be the inevitable re sult, if the Turkish Government be of opinion a t any time that sufficient terms of peace ha d been proposed. He was disposed to pay the utmost attention to any opinion their ally, France, might give with reference to negotiations for peace should such arise, and it would be the duty of the English GOVertnaellt to consider the whole of the circumstances, who, he'hoped, on the one band, would not consent to any terms they did not think honourable on the other, not continue thewarvi and hensu safe, h fe ter a m n4 s co uld be obtained. With re. spect, then, to the three questions—that of carrying on the war at present, the preparations for the future campaign, and any negotiations 'for peace and dy the the ien bill ee bey were that m i g ht arise, be could onl y say that th ere a than boat that t o readr reposed a sed third in never c ould be grea ter confi dence placed in a Go vernment t t im he e m , wo uld have a right to call on th e men t of the next session to s h ow t m at the commence not been misplaced. lie their co n fid e nce had next adverted to the sum of money granted for the conveyance of the Sardinian, troops to the seat of war, • tered into with th e King of consequence of a treaty en gf Sardinia, and in doing so could tot help calling attention to their gallantry and fidelity to the cause of Europe, and the general support that cause had received at the hands of the king and his tali * nster s—(hear)—and who had waived all claims to any concessions it might have been inexpedient for this country and France to grant him. (Hear, hear.) He had come forward boldly and cordially as an ally, and had sent some of the best troops in Europe to the field of battle, where he was certain, if occasion offered, these troops would sustain the reputation they had acquired during every period of European history. But if the King of Sardinia and his ministers have acted in this manner (whilst subjecting their country to immediate peril) to uphold the general balance of power in Europe, it was not to be supposed that they did not expect to obtain the moral support of this country, in a cause which they, as well as Sardinia, had at heart—that of seeing a better system of government prevailing in Pied mont and Italy, and their anxiety for the accomplish ment of which he gave them great credit. Lord John then alluded to the present state of Piedmont, the dis orders of which be hoped to see checked, and be no longer consecrated as itlwere by the Government, to the state of the Two Siciliec, to Tuscany, and to the occupa tion of Rome by the French.
