EVENING, JULY 2r, 1855. accepted in the country. If a long session were still to come, the discussion would have been satisfactory enough. for not more than one or two members out of the forty who voted against the committal of the bill had the courage to declare themselves opponents of the prin ciple of limited liability. Public opinion has silenced epen opposition, although. the secret hostility of the capitalists is not the less active. Even while affecting, to bow before the principle, they reproduced all the old threadbare arguments against it of rash and reckless speculation, the encouragement to fraud, the redundancy of capital, &c., &c., which have been demolished again and again. But the latews of the session was the great topic, and four mortal latirs were wasted in proving that the house had no time to waste. At this rate there is no hope of any good being done before the Tecess. It is only by economising every hour that time can possibly be found for the discussions absolutely necessary before the bills can be reduced to any useful shape. No less than seven amendments of the most ireliortant kind stand for consideration. Perhaps the best of them is that of the honourable member for Belfa . st, who pro poses to strike out nearly the whole of both bills, and to substitute an entirely new set of clauses' of his own. Then there is Lord Goderich's motion to strike out the clause by which the privilege of limited liability' is restricted to companies in possession of at least 20,0001. of capital. This is an essential point, upon the settlement of which it depends whether the Limited Liability Bill shall be a real working measure of relief, or a mere idle mockery of the popular wish. If the bill should pass with any such restriction as it now contains it would remain a dead letter, just as the Irish Anonymous Partnership Act broke down, mainly from the same cause. In the interval of more than a century since it passed scarcely an instance has occurred of its powers being resorted to, owing to the exclusion of associations with small capitals, and the addition of vexatious requirements that the wealthier bodies would not submit to. If the proposed restriction 15 iffithitained, the same fate will doubtless attend the present mea sure, which seems to be framed very much in the same spirit as its Irish prototype. We are at a loss to conceive how Lord Palmerston will be able to reconcile his opposition to Lord Goderich's amendment with the terse summary he gave of the question in the course of yesterday's debate. When he said that it was a contest between the opinions and prejudices of the few and the interests of the *Any, that it was part of the great conflict between Monopoly and Free Trade, and that all that was wanted was to set free small capitals locked up by the existing laws, he exhausted all that needed to be said on a subject now so thoroughly sifted, and gave his full adhesion to the doctrines at which the corintry long since arrived. But, if this is the true state ment of the question, where is the pretence for refusing the relief to associations having less capital than 20,000/.? As Mr. Henley pertinently asked, does Free Trade stop at 20,0001. ? Can there be a more glaring violation of the principle of Free Trade than to give a monopoly of commerce, in one peculiarly favoured form, to such partnerships and societies only as are able to start with a joint stock of a very considerable amount ? Either the noble lord's argument is insincere claptrap or it is meant as a prelude to the with drawal of all further opposition on the part of the Government to the amendment proposed by Lord Godur:ch. The last alternative is too good to be believed, but if Lord Palmerston think 4, as he appears to do, that a pointed speech will be accepted by the country as a substitute for comprehensive legislation, or that by dex ter - tusly attacking those members who waste hours he can redeem himself from the charge of having wasted an entire session, he will find that he is greviously mistaken whenever a .general election shall let the people's voice be heard. We have long ceased to have much confideree either in the house or the Administration. But they will sink lower than they have done in public estimation if they conclude the se , sion without passing a single mea sure of public utility. If, on a matter of which the principle has now become almost a settled doctrine in the country and the details alone are left to be arranged, it is found impossible to get a bill through Parliament In a session of six months, the sooner we look for some better law-making machinery than we possess at present the better. Wherever the fault lies it must be mended, if the Legislature is to retain any higher position than that of the first debating club in the country. (From the Morning Post of this day. ) From the discussion which took place yesterday on the Limited Liability Bill, the public, we suspect, will draw this natural and irresistible inference—that the opponents of the measure, finding that they have no valid arguments to urge against a principle which the people of this country and their representatives in Par liament, by repeated majorities, have approved, at length have been compelled to speak against time, in the vain expectation of achieving a temporary but ignominious triumph. In the great battle of large capital against small capital which was yesterday fought in the House of Collisions, those honourable gentlemen who have the good fortune to possess a large share of the former, and no sympathy for their less prosperous brethren, managed, by the most wearisome repetition of long-exploded fal lacies, to protract the discussion to a length which ren dered the progress of the bill in committee utterly imps esible. The House of Commons, which at the pre sent moment does not stand in remarkably good odour with the public, cannot afford to indulge in these splene tic and foolish attempts to stop the progress of measures which are not only useful in themselves, butare anxiously desired by the great miss of the people of this country. Mr. Muntz, Mr. Hastie, and other gentlemen who led the opposition, may not like the comparison ; but yes terday they stole a leaf out of the book of the defunct Irish Brigade, and sacrificed a whole day in the most inexcusable and reckless manner. They bad, strange .So say, several auxiliaries (Mr. Cardwell, for instance), who professing to be friends of the principle of limited lia btlity, still voted in support of the Fabian policy of alb honourable member for Birmingham. The public will rejoice to see that the noble lord at the head of the Government, in spite of all opposition, is determined to force on the two partnership bills, and that he is not to he turned aside from the plain path of duty by the shallow artifice of speaking against time or any other equally unworthy measure. The noble lord read the advocates of monopoly a well-deserved lecture —one which, we trust, the public will bear in mind, as giving, in a few brief and emphatic sentences, the real nature of the contest, and his opinion of the strategical operations by which Mr. Muntz and his supporters still hope to keep fettered down the capital and industry of the coun try. The noble lord said, " My own opinion is, that both these bills are of the utmost importance. There is nothing which, I am persuaded, would tend more to the general advantage of the public than setting free, as these bills would do, small capital to he turned to profitable employment. The present law prevents that. A great multitude of small capitals are locked up, which, if these bills were passed into law, might be employed with great advantage to those who possessed them. and for the great benefit of the community at large. This is a quostion of free trade against monopoly, and I can assure the house that I feel so strongly on this ques tion that I will urge the house to go on day after day, and morning atter morning, and if it is attempted to talk these bills out by long speeches, the country shall at least see with whom the fault rests,' and who it is who deprives the nation of the advantage which I con tend these bills will afford." The noble lord added, ,6 Of course, at this period of the session, if hon. gentle men will waste time in making long speeches, and pre venting business being done, we may have to sit here until September. I can only assure the house that no determination shall be wanting on the part of the Go vernment to give the public the benefit of these changes in the law during the present session of altr Parliamenmatters t." Grouse -shooting to be ignored for such py as the Partnership Bills is. surely high treason against the pleasures and amusements of hon. sportsmen ! Mr. Cardwell and Mr. Cairns both asserted that the Government, if it had chosen, could easily have given an evening between Whitsuntide and yesterday for the discussion of these bills. The answer is quite plain. The Tenants' Compensation Bill and the Scotch Educe tiou Bill, and the never-ending Maynooth debate, stopped the way, to say nothing of the motions made by Mr. Disraeli, Sir Bnlwer Lytton, Mr. Roebuck, and Mr. Layard, on the Vienna Conferences, the Sebastopol Committee, and every possible topic connected with the war abroad, and the administration of military and civil affairs at home. We look upon the application of the principle of limited liability to the commercial concerns of this country as providing new means of development for the resources of the nation, which will tend sen sibly, though perhaps not immed iatel y , to compensate the people for the pressure which a great war must necessarily entail. We do not for a moment ima. gine that the recognition of the principle of limited liability will lead to the formation of trades' unions—to that pernicious system which places in hostile array the workman and the master. Neither do we beli ducement eve that t to it will add, as some suppose, a single in formation of bubble companies, or to the perpetration he of wholesale and systematic fraud. The joint-stock mania of 1824 and 1825 occurred when unlimited liabi lity was, as at present, the law of then and ; and the rail way mania of 1845 occurred under pecisely similar cir cumstances. All the abortive sc hemes which were pro jected at t i be latter period were " wound up " upon the principle of unlimited liability, to the absolute ruin and beggary of thousands of innocent persons, who, if they had dreamt of the extent of their liability, would have paused before they made shipwreck of their fortunes. Limited liability, and perhaps no human legislation can sufficiently provide against these periodical accesses of madness which affect wealthy and enterprising communities ; but experience shows that liability to " the last shilling and to the last acre" has not had the salutary effect which its advocates so loudly proclaim. If the privilege of limited liability, purchased by large capitalists in the shape of expensive Acts of Parliament and charters of incorporation, has covered our country with railroads, canals, and great public works--if it has sent on every sea magnificent fleets of steamers, why is the small capitalist to be debarred from the same privi lege in the investment of his ca p ital ? The mono p olists say No—but the People and P arliament of England say Yes. ( Front the Morning Advertiser of this day.) Major Reed put his question to the Premier last night in terms of the notice he had previously given. The an wer of the noble lord to the cil.?etioh of the pilot gentleman was such as many, persons.expeeted—that is to say', it was noauswer at all. Lord Palmerston evaded tbe subject. Instead Of ansvvering "aye " or "no " to the cpiestion which the hon. and gallant member for Abingdon put to him, namely, whether, in the event of hostilities ceasing, the noble lord would feel it to be his duty to call parliament together before ratifying terms of ,peacei—he made a miserable attempt to shuffle out of the unpleasant poSition in which the gallant gentleman place 4 him, by replying that if any circumstances should occur during the recess which, in the opinion of her Ma jesty's GovernMent, would render it desirable to call parliament together sooner than the usual period, they would, of course, consider it their duty to do so. It was not with the view of getting an unmeaning• answer of this nature that Major Reed put his question. The answer, ii by courtesy must so be called, created a laugh in the house—an object which the noble lord evidently had in view when he gave it. It is truly dez, plorable to see, a man in the responsible position which Lord Palmerston occupies, and at a time, too, when the public mind is filled with anxiety and alarm, labouring as zealously to produce a laugh as if he were sustaining the principal character in an Adelphi farce. Such con duct is an outrage on all one's ideas of propriety. It is MI ungracious and ungrateful return to that country which has placed him where he is. The noble li.rd may rely on it that he will find some day, and that soon, that he has carried his propensity for indulging in jocu larity a little too far. Major Reed, as we prepared our readers to expect, was not to be put off with the unmeaning answer of the Premier. He feltthat the noble lord had given no an swer at all to his momentous question. If Lord Pal merston had not opened his lips, he would have said quite as much as he did in reality. The gallant officer, with a patriotism and promptitude which cannot be too highly praised, started to his feet, and said, that seeing the answer of the noble lord was altogether unsatisfac tory, he would enter on the journals of the house a notice of a resolution on the subject, which he would bring forward on the earliest day which should be open to him. The resolution of the hon. and gallant member for Abingdon is the following : —" That this house, parti cipating in the national anxiety that no pacificarrangement should be concluded with Russia which does not appear best calculated to secure an honourable, just, and lasting , peace, wishes to impress upon her Majesty's Govern ment how great a satisfaction it would be to the house and the country to receive an assurance that no treaty or conditions of peace would be finally settled without having previously called Parliament together." This is adopting the right course. This is acting with the promptitude and decision which the occasion re quires. Such spirited and patriotic conduct will every where elicit expressions of approval and gratitude. Never did a member of Parliament more fully repre , ent the universal feeling of the country than Major Reed is doing in this instance ; and he may rely on it that the nation will, as with one voice, cheer him on in the course he is pursuing. And with the country's cordial sympathy and hearty support, he can laugh to scorn any of those despicable expedients to which the liveried oc cupants of the Treasury benches may resort, with the view of diverting him from his purpose. (Front the Morning Post of yesterday.) While evvery square foot round Sebastopol has be come the scene of historic events, we must not forget that this immense war is also raging on the other side of the Black Sea, and includes within its sphere of activity the once famous regions of Asia Minor. Indeed, here its fury was exercised for more than a whole year, while the Crimea was still wrapped in the grim tranquillity of expectation. Some time since, General Mouravieff, advancing from Alexandropol, laid siege to Kars. We learn from the last despatches that he has raised this siege, but yet raised it in a manner, according to all appearance, so little com pulsory, that it was supposed be meditated the surprise, of Erzeroum, considerably in advance of it, if we count from his point of departure , an d to the rear of it, if we reckon from the Turkish. Now, we can well believe that some contemplated adventure was attributed to the Rus sian commander, and yet, at the same time, that mero necessity obliged him to abandon the operations which be had already undertaken. The Asiatic part of the war is so peculiar that we may be pardoned for devoting to it a few remarks, which will not only explain the seeming contradiction of this reflection, but enable the general reader to seize at once its real bearings. It is commonly assumed that Russia had but two ap proaches to Constantinople—one by land, over the Balkan hills, and one by sea, across the En xino. But such has been her enormous increase, and by so many devious paths has she circumvented the destined prey, that there was a third, and even a broader path. A few years more, and nothing could have withstood the enemy on this side. Descending from Scythia, as the Turco mans and Turks themselves descended from it, the modern Russians pursued a thfferentline into the same regions,and therefore had a different kind of communication with their own basis and their own resources. Circassia and the Cau casus, though nearer, are a less safe and a less practicable medium than tint more Eastern route by which the Tar tars of the Ural formerly swarmed down to the conquest of Asia Minor, and then of the European dominions of the Lower Empire. We cannot develop this distinction as fully as it merits. But it is enough to say that the Russians, taking the shortest way down, found it the longest wav home. They interposed " the Mountain of Languages" (a name which Professor Max Moller thinks is so significantly applied to the country of the various Circassians) between them and their supports ; a region never subdued from the time of Darius, from the time of Alexander to our own. Better for the Russians had they made a larger circuit eastward, than to have left straight behind them the " Caucasian and Albanian Gates." We need not pursue this—the scholar will understand us ; but it is not necessary to be a scholar to appreciate the position ; any diligent reader must also comprehend it at once. What we have said is the true reading of the power of Schamyl, and of the paralysis of all the Russian forces in Georgia, whenever there has been a fresh rising in the Caucasus. The fact is that, since our irruption into the Black Sea—the waters of which would have otherwise rectified the original error of the Rus sian advances through Asia Minor—General Androni koff, General Prince Bebutoff, and (uow) General Mou ravieff, have had to depend upon the precarious cow- munications of the Caspian. These communications failing, they have been forced to make " war feed war ;" and thus the very occurrence of a disaster, instead of inducing them to retreat into the flames of the insurrectionary conflagration raging behind them, has been but a reason for some desperate foray, or onward razzia. Were the Russian occupancy, or aggression, in Georgia at all adequately supported — were its best supplies not intercepted by the Allied expedition—were it not dislocated, so to speak, in its communications—it could strike the most fatal blow of all against the life of Turkey, and could knock only too imperiously at the door of Constantinople. Let us imagine what a great Russian General, not adequately resisted, could accom plish. Suppose Anatolia once swept clean of its long disorderly defenders, whom neither Kurshid Bey nor General Williams could put in the condition they wished. Suppose (happily this is no longer likely) the " Castles of Asia and Europe" in the enemy's hands, nothing that was then out of the Black Sea could get into it—nothing that war; in it could get out of it—except by that enemy's permission. This was the quarter in which the present possessors of Constantinople mustered to enter it—that is the quarter from which its newfoes, if undisturbed by our expedition and by our fleet, had the soundest hope of seiz ing it; and, strange to say, it was here, in their own conge nial legion (for the Turks have been derided as degenerate in Europe, but still heroic in Asia), that they, nevertheless, displayed the least of their hereditary prowess. Here (and, indeed, in the exact neighbourheed referred to by our last despatches) they were ignominiously beaten over and over again by inferior numbers, at the very time when Omer Pacha. in his immortal Danubian campaign, was furnishing strange illustrations to the current and favourite platitudes about "Turks in Europe, Turks no longer," &c. The truth is that a great general always makes history. In Asia the Turks were at first badly officered, and badlyled, being originally badly disciplined besides. At Kars, in the autumn of 1853, they were de feated ; at Akbalzik, on the 18th November, they were routed ; at Gumri, still earlier in the same year, they were shamefully beaten—everywhere vanquished. Why did not the Russians pursue their advantage ? No one who has carefully weighed our preceding remarks will be at a loss for the solution of this problem. But we go still further. We consider that Russia is baulked of the fairest of all her fields of aggression in be ing rendered incapable of effective operations in Anatolia —and the paralysis of her power in Asia Minor would, of itself alone, amply vindicate our Crimean expedition. The " silent highway" to the north of that important re gion brings her no help. And, curiously enough, when her generals show themselves the most aggressive on the frontiers of Imeretia, it is but a proof that they are un usually uneasy about their own rearward communica tions. We may return to this subject, and look more narrowly at General Mouravieff's present position. CRICKET.—THE GENTLEMEN OF ENGLAND V. THE PLAYERS OF ENGLAND. —This match was concluded on Wednesday at Lord's, and the following was the score:— The gentlemen 226 and 43 ; players 222 and 49. The players thus won by seven wickets. THE LATE JAMES COLQIIHOUN.—James Chevalier de Colquhoun was the only son of Dr. Patrick, at one time Lord Provost of Glasgow. Dr. P. Colquhoun was one of the first authors who applied himself to the develop ment of the statistics of the British empire. He founded and carried out gratuitously the present system of Thames police, and suggested in his work on the me tropelitan police the adoption of an improved system for the protection of public property, subsequently car ried out by the late Sir Robert Peel as an original idea. The late James Colquhoun, asHauseatic plenipotentiary, signed commercial treaties with Great Britain, the Otto man Porte, Mexico, and Liberia, and negotiated several others ; he also signed a treaty as Saxon plenipotentiary with Mexico. He leaves a family of two daughters and three sons, the elder of whom, Dr. Patrick, the a ltb?r of a voluminous work on Roman Civil Law, following his father's steps, signed, as Hanseatic plenipotntialy., at Constantinople and Athens, commercial treaties sv the Sublime Porte, Persia, aud,Greece. SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. (Front the Times of this day.) To any unprejudiced observer it must appear, at first sight, a very remarkable thing that there should he any opposition at all to such a measure as the Limited Liability Bill. Why in the world is it so obnoxious, so , ntolerable, so execrable a thing that a man having, we viii say, five hundred pounds, should not be permitted co lend it to a neighbour on the simple and innocent condition of sharing his neighbour's profits, in case of success, and losing no more than his five hundred pounds, in the case of failure ? Where is the extrava gance, where is the dishonesty, where the peril, where is the un-English character, where is the inevitable loop hole for roguery and folly, in such a proposition ? In ear humble opinion, it may fairly be assumed that, as a general rule, an Englishman who has scraped together . five hundred pounds, or even come by it in some less tedious way, will take care of it, if he can, and will not put it into the hands of the first fool, or the first knave, who asks for the use of it. The penalty of losing the money will generally be quits enough to deter the owner From a very wild investment, if there is the opportunity of a better one. Why is it, then, that the proposed liberty of advancing money on the terms just described should be fiercely disputed, on the ground that the penalty of losing all'the money so advanced is not enough, and that the lender must be bound not only to the amount of his advance, but to the whole of his means, every farthing he has in the world, every earthly ching he possesses, and his personal liberty besides Why this desperate determination to bind a man not only up to the whole of his venture, but to all that he , has, body and soul ? Shylock had a particular and not very creditable reason for binding his creditor, not only to the whole of his. six thousand ducats, but to the very flesh on his bones. But it is natural to ask with some curiosity who they are, in a Christian community, Who insist that the law ,between debtor and creditor shall always be of this excruciating and murderous cha racter. Who are they who insist that in every instance there shall not only be theforfeiture of the sum expressed in the bond, but of everything else the debtor has in - the world? We can only answer a simple question, and we answer it only from the columns before us. The hon. members who make this demand are Mr. Muntz, Mr. Glyn, Mr. W. Brown, Mr. Strutt, Mr. Spooner, Mr. Bass, Mr. J. Forster, Mr. Mitchell, and Mr. Hastie, and then we are told this is nota capitalist question ! Why, these are all capitalists. It does really seem to us a most invidious proceeding that a dozen wealthy men, with great command of capi tal, and great opportunities of employing it to advantage, should come down to the house in a body for the pur pose of debarring the man with small means from using those small means to the best advantage, except at the risk of everything he has in the world. If it is not a question of capital versus labour, these gentlemen are bound to explain why it is that the opposition to the measure in the house is conducted almost exclusively by very large capitalists. We should be, and, indeed, always have been, the very last to encourage any jealousy be• tween capital and labour, or, to speak in plainer language, between the rich and the poor. We shall ever insist, not only on the rights of capital, but on the duty of the Le gislature to protect and cherish it from envious and ma licious agitation. But we hold it also a matter both of policy and of duty to foster the more humble savings of the poor and increase the opportunities fortheir use. The wealthy gentlemen who argued afr b ainstthe bill last night admitted that limited liability did .for France, for the United States, and indeed, for all other countries in the world. But then, it is argued, all these are poor countries, hat is, in France, for example, there is a very numerous class of small proprietors, who have not separately enough :or large enterprises, while the enterprises themselves are flagging for want of means. But, if England is a rich country, it is also a poor country, for there are poor Ls well as rich in it. Everybody who has to do with the poor must be painfully arware of two continual demands co be found everywhere—on the one hand, persons want ing a little money to carry on some small business or to seize some opportunity of extending it ; and on the other hand, persons having a little money, and wanting to put it out to the best advantage. Now, what do these peo ple do with their money at present? They put it in a savings-bank, which gives them 2i per cent., that is 2/. 155., per annum for every hundred pounds. They in vest it in a shop or apublic-house, and are ruined. They put it into a building society, with the same result. ['hey join a freehold land society, and get saddled with a bit of land they don't know what to do with, two miles , r ten miles oft. If the sum of money is a little larger, 'hey buy shares in a railway, or a mine, being totally ignorant of both, and pay the penalty of ignorance by considerable losses. The question before us is how to leal with these two kinds of demand--the demand for a ittle capital, and the demand for small investments. We maintain that the most obvious, natural, and, on the whole, the safest way, is to encourage people with small sums to advance them to small tradesmen on the condi tion which Mr. Strutt deprecates as the chance of un limited gain with a limited chance of loss ; that is to say, a chance of 10 per cent., and no danger of losing more than the 1001. We accept the description, and ask for he th'ng so described. Some people know ope anot`ier. They know whom they may trust. They know an ho est man, a clever man, and a diligent man. They are safer in dealing with their neighbours than in large invrutable, and remote speculations requiring mil lions of eapi al. We are aware that, as the Duke of, Wellington toll his soldiers after the war, "geed interest is only another name for bad secu rity ;" but we are also aware that few people will be content with 21. 15s. from the savings -bank, or even 31. Gs. from the funds at their present price. No good reason can be assigned why they should not be allowed te advance their money to a neighbour whom they knew and whom they trust, on the condition of sharing the profits to the extent of the advance, and no further. This evident conspiracy of capitalists, unbecoming and suspicious enough in itself, wears a still uglier aspect ellen it resorts to the pettiest mode of opposition. The forms of the house are intended to give every opportu nity for discussing the merits of a question, not for multiplying obstructions. But no trades' union ever in dulged in so purely vexatious a warfare as that which these millionnaires are now employing to prevent a poor man from putting his money into a business without running the risk of utter destruction. The measure itself is one that particularly appeals to the generosity of the rich, and all the generosity shown in this case is to raise a debate at every possible stage of the measure. Then, when every kind, of obstruction has been offered, when the promoters of the bill have been baffled at every turn, and velien„euch a delay has been effected that the bill has only been got into committee, or rather on to the threshold, on the 26th of July, there rises the cry that it is too late to do anything with the bill this year. Why, whose fault is it that the bill is too late ? Whose fault is it that the bill cannot now be fully dis cussed in a week, if necessary ? But if the House of Commons does not mean to lose its character, and provoke as great a cry for legislative as there is for administrative reform, it would do well to put an end to the practice of a purely vexatious and dilatory op position. It is a mode of proceeding tolerated in no society, no class in this country ; and the extensive use of it in the House of Commons very much dero gates from the character of that body as a moral guide to the nation. Laws are seldom well obeyed unless they are respected, and they will not be respected unless the men who make them are respected also ; but, when members are seen to practise every kind of trickery and annoyance in order to waste 'Lime and to wear out pa tience, the people at large will naturally conclude these must be very ordinary mortals, something lower and meaner, indeed, than ordinary mortals. This measure, and the sister one for the regulation of partnerships, are not the only victims. Sir William C'ay has been obliged to give up his Church Rates Abolition Bill, not from any defeat, or prospect of defeat, on its merits, but simply because a vexatious use of the constitutional forms of the house had driven him too late for any prospect of success in this session. At this rate, and with these fre quent examples of successful annoyance, the house will find ere long that it has wholly lost the power of legisla tion. Already it is not very far from that result. Yet all that is wanted is for a few honest men to set their faces against an improper use of the forms of the house, and denounce it whenever it occurs. The country must have good laws, and, if it cannot have them otherwise, it will not allow the forms of the house to stand in the W ay. ( From the Daily News of this day.) Now that the chance of passing the Partnership Amendment and Limited Liability Bills has become almost a forlorn hope, the noble lord at the head of the Government has suddenly awakened to a sense of their vital importance. The principle of limited liability is so well established that any bill framed with a liberal and frank acceptance of it might have been carried almost without an effort. But whether it is that Lord Palmerston has only just discovered that a relaxation of the present law of partnership would be a most popular addition to his scanty stock of Government measures, or that he scorns an easy victory and cannot condescend t o any but a dashing and desperate service, he has contrived to delay the discussion of the bills upon this subject to a period when it will need all his energy backed by unusual forbearance on the part of his oppo nents, and some concession from the House of Lords, to enable them to become a law. It is ve r y eas y t o under stand the ad captandant deciaration by which the noble viscount endeavoured yesterday to cast off the responsi bility of the delay that threatens to be fatal to legislation for this session at least. With the well -assumed indigna tion of a man whose strenuous efforts bad be en th war t e d by an organised opposition, he assur ed the h ouse that he would go on from day to day, f rom morning to morni ng , p er haps into Sdptember, rather than suffer the bills to be talked out and the hopes of the country to be baulked. And this magniloquent explosion comes from a Minister who has never given an entire sitting to the discussion until the time has passed after which the House of Lords has re solved not to read a bill a second time. We believe that Ministers do desire to carry these bills. We are quite sure they wish to have credit for doing so. But the re sults of yesterday's debate are not very encouraging. The house did not get beyond Mr. Munta's amendment, the whole morning having been exhausted in re-affirm ing a principle sanctioned a year ago by a unanimous rqrsolution of the Commons, and all but universally ? 4/ I VIE Extensive preparations are being made in Portsmouth dockyard for the launch of the largest man-of-war in the ! world- - the Marlborough, 131, an enlarged and improved Duke of Wellington—which will leave the slip on .Tues day next, the 31st inst., at noon.' The Queen and Court, the Cabinet, the Admiralty, and a large number of the nobility will be present. A pavilion of three apartments, with spacious lyalconies, has been erected for her Ma jesty's accommodation at the right-hand corner of the slip next the water, lookin g from the dockyard ; and b er ths have also been erected for the special accommo dation of the Lords of the Admiralty, the Port-Ad miral, the Admiral -Superintendent, the Lieutenant- Governor, the Mayor and Corporation of Portsmouth, and the friends of the Government, but the officers of the dockyard are denuded of that place and space which have been allotted to them and their families at all pre vious launches, and the room they would have occupiedce partitioned off into stand-up pens for thousands general public. We believe the Royal Dockyard Bri gade will furnish the guard of honour on the occasion. The steam -transport Melbourne, Captain Champion, arrived at Spithead on Wednesday night from the East, last from Malta (July '7) and Gibraltar (July 14), with the following passengers and invalids :—Major Farrer, of the 38th, in military charge ; Lieutenant Campbell, of the Ist Royals; Lieutenant Wainman, of the 3d Buffs ; Second-class Staff Assistant-Surgeon Summers, Quartermaster Desmond, four Russian officers and four soldiers, prisoners of war, and 185 invalids, besides two women and one child. The Malacca, 17, sorew corvette, Captain Farquhar, arrived at Spithead yesterday morning from the Black • Sea, and was going into harbour to-day to refit. The steam-transport Rhadamanthus left Portsmouth last evening for Woolwich. . The Lady Anne steam-transport, No. 138, left her moorings off Woolwich Arsenal yesterday evening laden with artillery waggons and ammunition - stores for the Crimea. She is to call at Tilbury Fort, to take on board the Engineers of the Turkish contingent. Three other steam-transports, Nos. 238, 192, and 77, likewise anchored off the Arsenal, are taking in stores, and are expected to be ready for sea so as to sail on the first three days of the ensuing week consecutively. Her Majesty's screw steam-transport Himalaya, Capt. Priest, left Southampton yesterday afternoon, for Liver pool, to embark horses and troops for the Crimea. Thence the Himalaya will sail for Dublin to complete her numbers, and will immediately proceed to her desti nation. The Madeira packet brig Brilliant, at South ampton, has been chartered by Messrs. Hartley and Co., of London, to convey 150 tons of goods to the Crimea and the Black Sea. The Brilliant leaves South ampton for the Thames this day. The General Screw Company's steam-ship Jason (transport No. 80) came out of the geaving dock at Southampton and hauled into the river basin yesterday, where she awaits orders for the embarkation of her horses and troops. The Royal Mail Company's steam-ship Trent (transport No. 94) will be at once got ready for sea, it being presumed by the company to which she belongs that Government might again require her services. The following appointments were made yesterday at the Admiralty :—Lieutenant J. R. Veitch, to the Arro gant; Lieutenant A. A. D. Dundas, to the Urgent ; Lieutenant J. A. F.Lutirell, to the Urgent; Lieutenant E. J. Pollard, to the Sanspariel ; Master William P. Braund, to the Urgent ; William V. Miller, Paymaster to the Urgent ; J. W. P. Fcord, Paymaster to the Alarm ; Ti,. T. Haynes, Clerk to the Urgent ; and George T. Chevney, Assistant-Clerk to the Urgent. The Right Hon. Sir Charles Wood held his last lev4e this season, as First Lord, at the Admiralty yesterday. At 6 a.m. yesterday invalids who had been sent home to England from the Crimea, being sick and wounded, to the number of 75 men of all ranks and various corps, left the Invalid depot, Chatham, for Gravesend ; the whole of the men are in excellent health and spirits. Another party of invalids will leave the depot to-morrow. Lieutenant and Adjutant James Pope, staff officer of the Invalid depot, who has been recently appointed, has commenced his duties.

' ---, partrnent of the exhibition was thrown open to the public • -- Z :-.1 - •••• in the morning, and afterwards the cattle show, and not withstanding an incessant and saturating rain the ground was very well attended. Among the nobility and gentry who were observed iu the yard, besides the stewards and judges appointed by the society, were the Earl of Lops- • dale and party • Sir James Graham, Bart., M.P. ; Lord Wharncliffe, the Marquis of Lansdowne, Lord Berners, Lord Besborougb, the Hon. C. Howard, M.P. ; Sir George Musgrave, Bart. ; Mr. Mechi, his Excellency Baron von Usedorn, the Prussian Minister, Sir Wilfred Lawson, Bait., and all the gentry of the neighbourhood. The implement yard covers a, space of five acres. There are 120 entries embracing almost every agricultural mechani cal application that ingenuity has yet discovered. Pry dell's " steam•horse" has elicited a substantial mark of approval from the judges, but, this has reference only to the invention of the " Portable-railway,"and its applica tion to the wheels. It is not thought that the machine in its present shape will answer ; but it is hoped that . the discovery will have an important effect upon farming operations. Usher's steam cultivator never reached the trial ground. Its complex machinery, and the apparent difficulty of locomotion tell greatly against it. It was rescued to-day from the slough in which it fell yesterday, but little was done with it. It seems to have been set down as more ingenious than useful. the cattle show possessed attraction which effectually drained the imple ment department of its visitors. As we had anticipated, the display of horses, especially of Clydesdale's, from Scotland and the northern parts of England, was un precedented in the society's awards. A large number of Suffolks afforded the connoisseur an opportunity of com paring them with others. The horses from the locality, and especially the stallions, were most excellent. Some shown by Mr. Ferguson, of Harker Lodge, eclipsed anything we had ever before seen. There was scarcely ever a better display of short horns. Lord Feversham's splendid red and white bull Gloucester, from the late Earl of Ducie's stock, attracted great at tention. It succumbed to Mr. Booth's Windsor, than which there was not a better animal in the yard. The length of Windsor is 5 feet 3 inches ; from the hook bone to the tail it measures 21 inches, and the same across. Gloucester is 5 feet 2 inches in length, and 7 feet 4 inches in girth, not so much, it was said; by one foot, as its measurement last year. The show of Here fords and Devons was particularly fine, the two great rival breeders, Mr. P. Turner, of Leominster, and Mr. Quartly, of South Melton, exhibiting unexceptionable specimens. The sheep were not so numerous as at the last exhibition at Lincoln ; but, if possible, the quality generally was better. The other departments of the exhibition were equally well stocked. The following are the principal prizes : SHORT-HORNED CATTLE.

CAPITAL PUNISHMENTS IN AESTRALIA.—The crime of rape is still a capital one in Australia.
