IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS—(YESTERDAY.) The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the wool sack at five o'clock. THIRD READINGS. On the motion. of Lord REDESDALE the following bills were read a third time and passed :—Bradford Cor poration Water ; Dublin, &c., Roads (No. 2) ; Keighley and Kendal Road; Earl of Abergavenny's Estate ; Liverpool Improvement ; Wadhuret and West Farleigh Roads ; Great Northern London Cemetery (Amend ments) ; Gateshead and Heicham Roads (Amendment) ; Portsmouth Railway (Amendment) ; Shrewsbury Im provement (Amendment) ; and East of Fife Railway. THE SEVERN VALLEY RAILWAY. Lord PORTMAN called the attention of the house to the proceedings of the select committee on the Severn Valley Railway Bill, with a view of showing that the select committee had by mistake committed a breach of the standing order of the house in assenting to the in troduction of a particular clause. He thought the bill ought to be recommitted, or some other step be taken to render the bill in accordance with the standing order. The Marquis of CLANRICARDE, as chairman of the select committee, contended there was no infringement of the standing order in question, and instanced the case of the Salisbury and Yeovil Railway Bill and other cases as precedents for the course adopted by the select com mittee. The clause alluded to by the noble lord was one which he appeared to think was an amalgamation clause. He (the Marquis of Clanricarde) submitted that it could not be considered such a clause, but that it was one which simply provided for the repairs and manage ment of the;railway generally. If any:attempt were made to alter the clause referred to, the effect would be the throwing out of the bill for the present session; this would be a great pity, inasmuch as the bill was one of a most important character, and one in which the public were deeply interested. The Earl of CARNARVON was of opinion that there had been a violation of the standing order in the present case. 'Lord REDESDALE said that in his opinion the clause empowered an amalgamation or a lease from one railway company to another, and was therefore an eva sion of the standing . orders. After th e p rece d en t s th a t had been quoted by the noble marquis opposite,he th o ught that under all the circumsta n ce s the report should be received. After a short discussion, it was arranged that the re port in its present stage bhould be received. TURKISH LOAN. Lord MONTEAGLE begged to ask a question of her Majesty's Government with respect to the contract guaranteeing the Turkish loan. The question he wished answered was, whether England guaranteed the whole of five millions, and Foance also guaranteed the five millions, or whether each nation jointly guaranteed the loan, namely, England two millions and a-half, and France two millions and a-half. Earl GRANVILLE stated that the 5,000,0001. loan to Turkey would be jointly guaranteed by the British and French Government, although in fact England was responsible for the whole of it. This course had bees adopted after the most serious consideration. SCHOOL GRANTS BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. LEDDURRY PREBEND BILL. This bill passed through committee. BILLS OF EXCHANGE AND PROMISSARY NOTES BILL. On the motion of Lord BROUGHAM, this bill was read a second time. DWELLING-HOUSES (SCOTLAND) BILL. On the motion for the hone going into committee on this bill, Lord REDESDALE suggested that this bill, as well as the English one, should be referred to a select com mittee. In a couple of hours he thought both bills would be put in a much better form than they were at present. After a few words from Lord PANITURE and the Mar quis of BREADALBAITE, The bill passed through committee. The Victoria Governments Bill was read a third time and passed. The Endowed Schools (Ireland) Bill was passed through committee. The Edinburgh Lands Bill was reported with amend ments. The Waste Lands (Australia) Acts Repeal Bill was read a third time and passed. The New South Wales Governments Bill was read a third time and passed. The Places of Religious Worship Registration Bill was read a third time and passed. YOUTHFUL OFFENDERS' BILL. Tbis bill was reported to the house with amendments. The Gold Wedding Ring Bill, the Commons' Inelo sure Bill, and the Encumbered Estates (Ireland) Act Continuance Bill passed through committee. Their lordships then adjourned. ROUSE OF COMMONS-(YESTERDAY.) The SPEAKER took the chair at four o'clock. The Lords' amendments to the following bills were considered and agreed to :—Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway ; London Necropolis and National Mausoleum ; Wisbech Port ; Gun-barrel Proof-houses (Birmingham and London) ; and the Bolton and Nightingales Road. Mr. ROEBUCK presented a petition from the Foreign Affairs' Committee of Newcastle, complaining of the conduct of the war. The petitioners ended by praying nothing, and saying they would ever pray. (Laughter.) Mr. HADFIELD presented a petition signed by the Mayor and the inhabitants of Sheffield, complaining of the present state of the representation of the people in that house, and stating that every householder of 12 months' standing ,should have a vote. ROMAN CATHOLIC CHARITIES BILL. The order for the second reading of this bill was dis• charged. LONDON WRIT COMMITTEE-CASE OF BARON ROTHSCHILD. Mr. WALPOLE moved that Lard Hotham be dis charged from further attendance on the committee, and that Mr. Edward Egerton be added thereto. Lord HOTHAM rose to explain his reasons for wish ing to be relieved from the attendance of this committee. He had been unable to prevail on the majority of the committee to concur with him, that if it was desirable the case should be argued by counsel on one side, it was contrary to all reason, justice, andpropriety that it should not be argued in like manner on the other side ; and on that not being deemed advisable by the majority of the committee nor by the house, he had come to the deter mination to ask the permission of the house to be re lieved from further attendance on the committee. Mr. T. DUNCOMBE hoped the noble lord would re consider the determination he had come to, because if his decision was a proper one he (Mr. Duncombe) ought to follow his example. The committee could not last more than one or two days longer, and he thought it would be unfair to any hon, member who should join it now to ask him to decide or agree to the report without having heard the arguments. (Hear.) Under these cir cumstances he trusted the noble lord would reconsider his determination. (Rear, hear.) Lord HOTHAM said if the feeling of the house was, as it appeared to be, adverse to the resolution be had come to, h e o f course had no alternative but to comply with its wish and continue on the committee. Mr. WALPOLE expressed Isis satisfaction at this latter determination of the noble lord. The motion was then withdrawn. ROYAL MILITARY COLLEGE, SANDHUR,ST. In reply to Colonel HARCOURT, Mr. PEEL said the report of the committee which had been appointed to inquire into the nominations to cadetships from the above college was only just pub • lished, and he had not had time to read it ; but the re commendations of the committee should be taken into 'consideration on the first opportunity. RETIREMENT OF OFFICERS ON FULL PAY. Col. NORTH rose to ask the Under-Secretary for War, whether those officers who wished to take advan tage of the Queen's late warrant for, the retirement of officers upon fell pay, and obtaining a step in rank, would be permitted to retain the reward for distinguished service which her Majesty had been graciously pleased to grant them. Mr. PEEL replied that no case of the kind alluded to by the hon. and gallant member had yet occurred. THE ENFIELD RIFLE. Captain KNOX asked the Clerk of the Ordnance whether he had any objection to lay on the table of the house any correspondence which had passed between him, and the authorities at Woolwich, or elsewhere, with re gard to the lamentable failure of the Enfield rifle, on the 18th day of June last, and whether he was taking any steps to remedy the evil ? Mr. MONSELL replied that no information on the subject had been received by the Board of Ordnance. PAY OF INVALID SOLDIERS AT CHATHAM. Colonel KNOX again rose, and asked the Under- Secretary for War whether his attention had been called to a paragraph in the Times newspaper of the 12th instant, to the effect that the invalid soldiers at Chatham are muc h d iscontented at portions of Pay be i ng ver y withheld from them , a nd what ste p s the Government intended to take in the matter? Mr . PEEL replieJ at Ch that he was told the. number of invalid very inconsiderable, as all the invalids f atham entitled to receive pay was very who had left Scutari Hospital up t o pay settled without any Ist of April had their back cu lty respectin g those soldiers who was a diffii as the War -office who had left Scutari s ince that period, of the pay lists ; b ut the ;office was not in possession disposed of, and the men ases were . being gradually were at th e present time re ceiving full pay. (Hear.) THE SUNDAY BEER ACT Mr. ALCOCK a sked the Se cretary of State • ( lor the Home Dep a riment, whether , inas much as itseemeimprobable that the Committee on the Beer Act would be ableintro to ure port duringthis session , it was his intention a bill in order to modify the restrictions of the seer Act of last session ? Sir G. GREY said as lie was not a member of the committee, and as the committee had made nureport to the house yet, he was not enabled to say when the hours of the committee would be concluded. The house had confided the, inquiry to the committee on the mo tion of the honourable member for Bristol— (hear, hear)—and it was certainly not his (Sir G. Grey's) intention to interfere with that inquiry. SUPPLEMENTARY ESTIMATES. In reply to Sir 11. WILLOUGHBY, The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said it would be necessary to propose to the houses sup plementary estimate fur the naval department before the end of the session. In the expenditure of the past quarter ti) ore was a considerable excess over the ebtimat) agreed to by the house. It would be also necessary, probably, to propose a supplementary estimate for the military department ; and if the house should agree to these supplementary estimates, it would be necessary for him to submit the ways and means by which he should propose to meet the increased expendi ture. (Hear.) INQUIRY INTO THE CONDUCT OF THE THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, JULY 14. 1855. POLICE. In reply to Mr. T. DuNCOMBE, Sir G. GREY said a commission tad been appointed to conduct the inquiry into the conduct of the police in Hyde-park, consisting of the Recorder of London, Mr. Armstrong, the Recorder of Manchester, and Mr. Henderson, the Recorder of Liverpool. The inquiry would be an open one, but it would be left to the discretion of the commissioners whether counsel should be heard on either side or not. The arrangements were not yet quite complete, but he be lieved they would be advertised in to-morrow's papers. (Hear, hear.) _____ ___ THE DECIMAL COINAGE. Mr. RICARDO wished to ask the noble lord at the head of the Government a question upon the resolution of the house passed a few weeks since in reference to de cimal coinage. It was said that a third commission was about to be issued to inquire into the matter, and what he wished to know was whether the commission would be empowered to go into the whole matter, or simply to carry out the views of the house as expressed in the re• solution to which he referred ? Lord PALMERSTON replied that the commission which would be appointed would have to consider and report upon the whole subject, and to make such recom mendations as should seem to them to be desirable. THE CONDUCT OF THE POLICE AT THE HYDE-PARK DEMONSTRATION. Sir F. THESIGER said, as he understood an inquiry was about to be instituted by the Home-office into the conduct of the police on the oc casion of the late Hyde-park demonstration, and as he believed the commissioners to be appointed would have the power of examining witnesses on oath, he wished to ask the right hon. baronet the Sectetary of State for the Home Department whether he had con sulted the law officers of the Crown as to the authority of the Government to empower the commissioners to administer the oath to witnesses without a special Act of Parliament ? Sir G. GREY replied that he had not consulted the law officers of the Crown in the matter, but he had been guided by, precedents, of which there were several justifying the course the Government had taken. Sir F. THESIGER mentioned that when he had the honour. of holding the office of Attorney• General, a question arose under similar circumstances, and he had held that the commissioners could not administer an oath to witnesses unless empowered specially by act of Parliament. COLONIAL POSTAGE. Sir S. NORTHCOTE gave notice that on Monday he should put a question to the Under Secretary of the Treasury in relation to the postage of letters and newspapers to the colonies. INTELLIGENCE FROM THE SEAT OF WAR. Mr. PALK wished to ask the noble lord at the head of the Government whether any intelligence had been received from the seat of war of a later date than that already published ? Lord PALMERSTON said that the Government bad received intelligence daily. It was not of any import. ance, but it contained satisfactory information that the health of the army was good. SUNDAY GATHERINGS AT THE WEST END. Lord H. VANE said he had been requested by seve ral gentlemen resident in Belgravia, in which neigh bourhood he himself lived, to ask the Government whe ther, in the event of large bodies assembling in that part on Sunday next any arrangements had been made for the protection of the inhabitants, or whether, if such means had not been taken, the inhabitants would be at liberty to take steps for their defence ? Sir G. GREY said that no information of any cer tainty bad reached him that there would be a repetition of the scenes of the last two Sun days. It was possible large numbers of people might assemble, but every precaution would be taken by the Government to prevent any outrages being committed. He could not, at the same time help saying, that these questions so frequently repeated tended to produce the very evil sought to be avoided. (Hear.) Mr. PALK, amidst cries of " oh," and " order," said he thought those questions were most proper, when it was remembered how defective the police arrangements were last Sunday ; and that a nobleman, whilst laying seriously ill in bed, was alarmed by his windows being broken by a shower of stones. BILLETTING OF THE SCOTCH MILITIA. -THE ALDERSHOTT CAMP. Mr. COWAN asked the First Lord of the Treasury, if there was any intention on the part of the Government to put an end to the system of billetting the militia regiments upon private families in Scotland ? Col. KNOX, before the question was replied to, called the attention of the Government to the fact that, al though an encampment of Guards had been at Alder shott for two months, where they were specially sent for the purpose of being trained in the practice of firing ball cartridge, no firing ground had yet been provided. This was the more to be lamented, inasmuch as the regiments were liable at any time to be drafted to the Crimea. Lord PALMERSTON, on the latter point, said he should make it his duty to call the attention of his noble friend at the head of the , War Department to the subject ; but the hon. and gallant member must be aware that it was a difficult matter to obtain a sufficient space of ground for ball practice with safety. As to the Scotch militia being billeted in private houses, he was aware of its evil consequences and inconveniences ; but the ne cessity had arisen from the fact of a large number of bar racks having been done away with at the close of the last war. The matter, however, should be represent e d t o the noble lord at the head of the War Department. After some further observations from Mr. H. BAILLIII, Mr. L. DAVIS, and Sir J. WALSH, the subject dropped. MEETING OF THE LONDON AND SOUTH WESTERN RAILWAY COMPANY. A special general meeting of the proprietors of this rail way was held yesterdayafternoon at the Company's Office, Waterloo station—Mr. Chaplin, the chairman of the company presiding—for the purpose of again taking into consideration, and of approving or disapproving a bill now before Parliament entitled " An Act for authorising the execution of works by the company for regulating their capital, and for other purposes." And further for consider ing the provisions of a bill now before Parliament for making a railway from the Manor-street terminus of the authorised Westminster terminus railway, wherein cer tain powers are intended to be conferred on the com pany. It will be recollected that about a month since a meeting of the proprietors was held relative to the first portion of this notice, (the object of the act amongst others being to empower ;the directors to extend their line from Yeovil or Dorchester to Exeter). When the shareholders present expressed themselves strongly against the proposed extension, and the result of the poll being in their favour, it was thought neces sary and desirable by the directors this second meeting should be held, in the hope the shareholders, on re considering the subject, would assent to the bill. _ ~ The SECRETARY (Mr. L. Crombie) having read the notice convening the meeting and the directors' report, and the Solicitor the heads of the two bills, The CHAIRMAN said he appealed to the meeting with confidence to approve of this bill. After alluding to the meetings that had already been held, with reference to this question, he hoped that harmony would exist, so es sential to the prosperity of the company, and moved a re solution in conformity with the notice convening the meeting. Mr. LACY seconded the motion. Mr. HELPS objected to the resolution, as compre hending too much. It should be divided and put to the meeting separately under its various heads. Mr. TITE, M.P., suggested that, instead of discussing the question, the chairman should declare the number of proxies the board bad received in favour of the bill ; for, after all, the question must be decided by numbers. The Chairman said it was not usual to pursue such a course, but if it was the wish of the meeting he would do so. Mr. Sergeant GAZELEE objected, because the proxies had not yet been examined. Mr. HELPS condemned the holding a second Wharn cliffe order during the same session of Parliament for one object, and proceeded to defend his conduct and that of Mr. Dickinson in opposing the extension clauses of the bill. He moved as an amend ment That this meeting protests against any at tempt to reverse the decision of the meeting held, in pursuance of the Wharncliffe standing order, on the 31st day of May last ; considering that the Wharncliffe standing order contemplates the holding of only one meeting, and that the holding of a second meeting, on the same bill, in the same session of Parlia ment, and with a view to reverse the decision of the only meeting contemplated by the Wharncliffe standing order, is contrary to the letter, spirit, and meaning of that standing order, and subversive of the security which it is calculated to give to all property invested in joint-stock undertakings." Dr. MAYO seconded the amendment, and added that Mr. Baron Parke, in a conversation with him at the Athenaeum Club, deprecated the conduct of the directors in holding the second meeting as unjust and unheard of. General AITCHISON suggested to the meeting th e neces sity of unanimity in their proceedings, and that it would be better to support the directors. Mr. P[JNCHABD condemned the general policy of the directors, and stated it to be his intention to oppose everything proposed by them, and called on the meeting to follow his example that day. Mr. TITE, M.P., was opposed to extensions as much as any man—(oh)—for he could assure the meeting his stake in the company was too great to make him indif ferent to a good dividend. He proceeded to argue that the position of the company from the pledge given was such that they must sooner or later construct this extension line, and he thought it bad policy for them to fly in the face of the House of Lords and House of Commons, when they felt themselves morally in the wrong in opposing it. (Cries of " No.") Mr. DICKINSON said he had never acknowledged any pledge had been given by the company for the construc tion of this extension, and read extracts from the evi dence given before the House of Commons, to show that it was an injudicious act of their late chairman that had been so misconstrued. Sir Jossr WALSH, M.P., was not disposed to suc cumb so hastily to the orders of the House of Lords or House of Commons, as Mr. Tite, believing those bodies did not thoroughly understand this question. Where there was a division of opinion between a large number of the shareholders and the directors on any question, he thought the former should have an opportunity of stating their case fully before the House of Commons, which at present they did not possess. He should op pose the extension. Mr. HUTCHINGS, M.P., (director) suggested that, as the debate had been on the whole question, the votes should be taken on the whole of the resolutions pro posed, and not seriatim. He complained of Sir J. Walsh opposing the bill at that meeting and abstaining from doing so on its third reading in the House of Com mons. The directors had been no party to the intro duction of the extension clauses in the bill, but they had been forced on them in consequence of the pledge given. If they withdrew the bill the company would be placed in a very unfortunate and embarrassing posi tion from having the decision of a committee of the House of Lords and House of Commons against them. He was no extension man, but wished to clear himself with the House of Lords. The discontented share holders, having been heard by counsel before the House relative to the pledge, the committee having decided against them, he considered it was the duty of th e pro prietors to redeem it. Mr. Sergeant GAZELEE (director) said the Wharn cliffe order had by their proceedings been made a nullity, and would give directors an opportunity of harassing and wearing out the shareholders. The Wharncliffe order, instead of being a bulwark against the power of the directors, was no other than a snaro and a delusion. He should vote for the amendment. He looked upon the committees of the Houses of Lords and Commons as incompetent tribunals for railway purposes. As to the proxies, ho begged to say he knew not how many the directors had received, not being in the secret, but he should like to see how the staff would vote. He protested against the whole pro ceedings. _ . Mr. FOSTER was of opinion the shareholders ought to submit to the requirement of Parliament, and supported the directors. The Hon. Mr. BUTLER called on the Hon. Mr. Scott to state how he gave the pledge. The Hon. Mr. SCOTT said he gave a pledge to make a single line with double works. Many persons had said he gave that pledge under coercion, but he had alway s denied it, and did so now. H a d he done so it would have been unworthy of them on their part and also of himself. The committee said if he did not give a pledge the company should make a double line the bill would be thrown out. He replied the committee might take what course they pleased, but he felt satisfied that neither the committee nor the shareholders would give him much credit if he acceded to wh a t the committee pressed him to do without consulting the shareholders. 1 letter was handed him to sign to which he objected, when it was altered, and he signed it relying on the temper of the shareholders as it was in the summer of 1853 that they would consent to the extension, and that it should be a double line ; at the August meeting fol lowing his conduct was approved of. (No, no.) The Hon. Mr. BUTLER replied that the statement of the hon. gentleman had not removed from his mind that there was an amount of gentle pressure put on him when he signed the letter alluded to. The CHAIRMAN then put the amendment which he declared carried by a majority of one. A poll was de manded and granted. The CHAIRMAN was about to put that part of his re solution referring to the extension which was objected to by Mr. Helps, who contended that the resolutions should] bo taken seriatim, and, as it was four o'clock, that the meeting should be adjourned for a week for the special purpose of fully discussing the question of exten sion. Mr. Serjeant GAZELEE thought nothing would be gained by an adjournment. Some further discussion took place, and of that stir ring character peculiar to railway meetings, in the course of which it was suggested the bill should be withdrawn, and that sufficient discussion had taken place. The adjournment was put and lost. Mr. DICKINSON then proposed an amendment, giving the directors power to raise one million of money for this extension, but met with so much opposition that he could not be heard in support of it. The CHAIRMAN said the million of money was asked for because it was optional which route they would take, leaving a choice of two. The coast line would cost about that sum, and the central 700,0001.. Mr. HELPS then rose to address the meeting, amidst confusion and cries of "Divide," but was unable to obtain a hearing for some time. He said the object of Mr. Dickinson's amendment was, that if the company was bound by Mr. Scott's pledge it ought to adhere to the line and amount. Mr. DICKINSON'S amendment was put and lost, on which a poll was demanded and granted. Mr. THEOBALD moved an amendment. He bad no wish to repudiate Mr. Scott's pledge, so far as the au thority of the company permitted it, and moved the solicitor be instructed to withdraw the bill. The CHAIRMAN declined to put the amendment. The original resolution of the directors in favour of extension was put and carried. A poll was also demanded and granted. The CHAIRMAN announced the poll would be open on Saturday and Monday, and be declared on Tuesday. The meeting `shortly after separated. The meeting, which was exceedingly numerous, was graced with the presence of a lady, a very unusual attendant at such places. EAST AND WEST INDIA DOCK COMPANY. — At a meeting of the East and West India Dock Company, held yesterday, Mr. S. Gregson, M.P., presiding, the divide n d d ec l ared was at the rate of Glper cent.per annum , and the rep ort was unanimously adopted. I t was sta t e d that business is making satisfactory progress, and that the new works are shortly expected to be completed. In answer to questions, it was mentioned that the com ?any have not received a proposal for a lease with a guaranteed dividend above the amount now ordered, but the directors intimate that they are always prepared to attend to suggestions which may have the effect of im proving the trade of the docks. The 'maintenance of the dividend at the present rate, iu the face of antici pated competition, will, it is thought, satisfy the ma jority of the proprietors, if it can l e accomplished. THE LONDON GAZETTE OF LAST NIGHT. THE LATE LOAN. Mr. DISRAELI wished to ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, when the Government contracted for the last loan of 16,000,0001., au arrangement was en tered into by the Government with the parties contract ing the loan that no further sum should be asked for until all the instalments had been satisfied. He asked this question because, from what was stated by the right hon. gentleman the other night, it had been rumoured that another loan was shortly intended to be proposed. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that at the time of obtaining the loan of 16,000,0001. an engagement had certainly been entered into by the Government with the parties granting the loan not to attempt to raise any further loan until all the instal ments of the last loan had been satisfied, and the Go vernment were determined to fulfil strictly that engage ment. LADY AND LORD RAGLAN'S ANNUITY BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. TENANTS' IMPROVEMENTS COMPENSATION (IRELAND) BILL. The house then went into committee on this bill. About six hours were occupied in the discussion of the clauses 15, 16, and 17, of which the first was re jected by a majority of one. The other two, after many amendments, some adopted, some rejected, were agreed to. After the latter clause was agreed to, Mr. WILKINSON proposed that the chairman should report progress. Mr. I. BUTT said he had a proposition to make which, if it were agreed to, would materially shorten the dis cussion. liiv proposal was simply this, that all the clauses after clause 17 should be left out f the bill. Mr. RORSMAN, on the part of the Government, objected to this proposition, and said that the remaining clauses were word for word the clauses in favour of the landlord which had passed the House of Lords in a for mer session, and might, therefore, be supported by the House of Commons now. After some further discussion on the question, Lord PALMERSTON said he was determined to persevere with the bill as it stood, but if hon. gentlemen were determined to fight every line of every clause as they bad done, he could not resist the proposition to re port progress. This was agreed to—the committee to sit again on Wednesday. LIMITED LIABILITY BILL. Lord GODERICH asked if this bill would come on upon Thursday ? Lard PALMERSTON said it was his intention ; but he could not, of course, answer for it. (Hear.) The Stage Carriage Duties Bill was read a second time. The Militia (Ireland) Bill passed through committee. The Lunatic Asylum Amendment Bill passed through committee. The other orders of the day were disposed of, and the ho.use adjourned. THE BELGIAN RAILWAY.—An Amsterdam newspaper states that the Hollando-Belgian Railway Company has replaced all unmarried single men on the line by married men, the reason being that the women will be able to attend to the signals whilst the men are employed in re pairing the earthworks. THE PROPOSED CA P AT STIRLING.—The telegraphic report in our Saturday's issue attributed the following statement to Mr. F. Peel, in reply to the observations of our member Mr. Cowan, in the House of Commons on Friday night, with regard to the billeting grievance, viz., "that an encampment would be formed at Stirling large enough to accommodate four or five regiments." But as no reference is made to the camp in any of the London morning journals, the report is open to doubt. —Caledonian Mercury.

MANCHESTER, July 12.—There has been an exceed ingly dull market. In proportion to the concessions made by sellers either of cloth or yarn, buyers lower their offers. There is no confidence in prices being sus tained at anything above the rates prevailing in February and March, and, though sellers make the sacrifice unwillingly, they give way little by little, making the best of such business as may be occa sioned by small•assorted orders needing immediate execution, and trusting to the chapter of accidents for any temporary reaction which may ease their fall. In the present state of the market buyers will not offer for any large quantity of either cloth or yarn at a moderate concession in price, and sellers would not ac cept contracts of magnitude at more than a trifling re duction from present rates. The settling down from speculative rates is a slow and difficult business, and in the meantime there is almost nothing doing. NOTTINGHAM, July 12.—The hosiery trade has been dull during the week, many houses working to order. The lace trade continues quiet, with very limited excep tions, throughout the various branches. The business doing conaists of small jobbing lots for the American market. The London houses are taking a little in the superior class of goods, but the operations are very re stricted. ROCHDALE, July 9.—The demand for pieces con tinues good, and is quite equal to the supply. There are no stocks on hacid ; the merchants take off the pieces as fast as the manufacturers bring them to the market. There is little to report in the wool-market, except that the tendency of prices is upward. HUDDERSFIELD, July 10.—The market has been rather quieter this morning, notwithstanding the large attend ance of buyers from London, Glasgow, &c. The recent rise in the price of wools, combined with the cheering prospect of a bounteous harvest, has given a favour able impulse to our markets for several weeks back, and stocks of goods in the merchants' hands have gone off rapidly, but almost uniformly, we believe, at old prices, the corresponding advance in the price of goods having in no one instance been maintained. Purchases this morning have chiefly been limited to the extent of orders in hand, and large purchases are not anticipated until more decided advices are received from the cur rent wool sales now being held in London. The regular sale goods most in demand consist principally of black and mixture doeskini, shepherds' plaids, checks, twists, and other goods suitable for the summer and aribunn trades. Trade in the warehouses during tho week has been above the average of previous ones. FRIGHTFUL EXPLOSlON.—Yesterday evening the in habitants in the neighbourhood of Camden-town were startled by a loud report caused by the bursting of a locomotive engine on the North London Railway, upon the arrival of one of the down trains at the Hampstead road station. It appears that the locomotive was de tached from the train and taken to the end of the platform, the stoker was in the act of clearing the bars, and the driver was also engaged underneath examining some part of the machinery, when the boiler burst, blowing the fore part of the engine to pieces, and carrying away some 10 or 15 feet length of the railway platform and fencing. Fortunately, the passengers were at some dis tance, and the driver and fireman both escaped without serious accident ; but the peculiar construction of the engine and the appearance of the wreck lead us to hope that a rigid inquiry will be instituted into the cause of this accident. Wo have reason to suppose it was owing to the inadequate supply of water in the tanks suspended to the frame of the engine as a substitute for the tenders in ordinary use.

Great reliance is deserv edly felt that the good faith of Turkey will prey ent the guarantee from becoming anything more than nominal, but, in case of an opposite result, the question will be to which of the guaranteeing Powers is the bondholder to apply, and curiosity prevails as to the mode in which' this and some other points are to be provided for, a keen perception being always entertained that financial alliances are always likely to prove more entangling than any other. REPRESENTATION Of THE CITY.—A meeting, convened by private circular, of some of the most influential gentle men in the City, and who have for many years have taken the most prominent part in the return of its representa tives, was yesterday held, for the purpose of considering the present position of matters in connection with two of its members. Among the gentlemen present there was an unanimous feeling that Lord J. Russell had for feited all claims to the continued confidence of the con stituency, and that a requisition ought to be got up calling on him to resign. With regard to Baron Roths child, the adverse feeling was not quite unanimous; but it was very nearly so. It was agreed, with a very few dissentients, that in the event of his election being de clared invalid by the committee then sitting, a deputa tion be appointed to wait upon him, calling on him to place the seat, which he has so long nominally occupied, at the disposal of the constituents, instead of again so liciting their suffrages. It was also agreed that an assur ance should be given to the Baron that the gentlemen appointing the deputation, as well as the deputation themselves, are as strenuous as ever in their advocacy of the cause of Jewish emancipation ; but that so far from that cause being promoted by Baron Rothschild's con tinuing the nominal representative of the City, it would only be retarded were be again to obtain the suffrages of the electors. The probability from all this is that we shall immediately have two vacancies in the City re presentatim7Morning Advertiser. COUNTRY 41ARKETS. LIVERPOOL—JuLY 13.
