HOUSE OF LORDS.—(THIS EVENING.) The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at five o'clock. TICKET-OF-LEAVE MEN. Lord LYNDHURST rose to call the attention of the noble lord to the case of a ticket-of-leave-man which ap peared pi the newspapers. It was therein stated that the language used by the prisoner to the policeman was of the most obscene and revolting description. In consequence of inquiry, the magistrate stated that there was scarcely a day on which a ticket-of-leave man was not brought before him, charged with one gross offence or another, that the metropolis was infested with them, and that it was dangerous in consequence for a per3on to pass through the streets at a late hour of the night. This was but one instance of many that had come under the notice of the police magistrates lately, and he (Lord Lyndhurst) thought the evil was increasing to such an extent that the attention of the Government ought to be immediately given to the subject. jThe LORD CHANCELLOR said the noble and learned lord had not given notice of his intention to bring the subject forward, inasmuch as he was wholly ignorant of the nature of the particular case to which he had referred. He would only say that his right hon. friend the Secretary of State for the Home Department bad had the subject for some time under his considera tion. Lord CAMPBELL said that all that he bad said with respect to this subject had been fulfilled to the letter. He entirely concurred in all that had fallen from the noble and learned lord opposite on this subject. Upon the introduction of the measure which authorised the abolition of transportation, and the granting of tickets of leave, he augured the greatest evils as likely to re suit. He regretted to find that his. fears had been fully realised. Lord BROUGHAM presented two petitions from places in North Wales, in favour of the jurisdiction of county courts. Lord BERNERS presented a petition against the en dowment of the Collego of Maynooth. CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY BILL. The Lord CHANCELLLOR, in moving that the house go into committee upon the re-commitment of this bill, proceeded to state the nature of some Af the amendmennts proposed. The main object of the measure was to constitute a proper council to exercise legislative functions in the University of Cambridge. Accord ing to the present constitution of the university, cer tain Royal statutes were granted, by which the university was to be governed. It was, however, pro vided that the university might, from time to time, make laws to regulate thefproceedings, provided that they were not inconsistent with the Royal statutes. There was a body called the Caput, which was constituted of six members, and their functions were to propose anything they thought worthy of adoption to the University, and to submit them to the foundation at large, who might assent or reject it as they thought proper. The great objection to this mode of proceeding was this, that according to the provisions of the Royal statutes conEtitoting that body, env one member of the Caput had an absolute veto, and, in fact, the Vice-Chancellor might prevent anything coming from that body which he himself might not approve. In spite, however, of that erroneous and defective c.msti tri tion, the royal commissioners stated in their report that there had been an endeavour on the part of the uni versity to reform itself. Ti;a', however, was not a reason why Parliament should not constitute a better council, 80 as to guard against any abuse that might. "• arise. The main object of this bill was to establish a , body that shall adequately represent all the in terests of the University, and which would nut be open to the objection to which the present caput was exposed. He bad had an interview lately with an important deputation from the University upon this subject, and he was disposed to introduce such clauses into the bill as would, in a great measure, meet their views, and the representations contained in a petition presented to That house by a learned body of the university. He proposed to a!t r the system of election in the university, so as to make it, as far as the great body of masters of arts was concerned, conformable to the mode rf election recognised at OxfJrd. He proposed to leave the elections of the four heads of houses and :four professors as they stood before, namely, that they should be elected by their own respective body. (LEFT SPEAKING.) HOUSE OF COMMONS.—(THIS EVENT VG.) Mr. FITZROY took the chair at four o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Lords' amendments to the Dundee and Perth nn,l Aberdeen Railway Bill, and the Swansea Vale Railway Bill were considered. The following bills were read a third time and passed : —Basing.toke, SLockbridge, and Lubcomb Corner R.,ad; liridport and Broad Winsor Roads, Bridport Roads, Gomersal and Dewsbury Road, Honiton Road. Light pill and Birdlip Road, North York-hire and Cleveland Railway, Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton Rail way (Improvements and Branches) ; Oxford, Worc3s ter, and Wolverhampton Railway (Narrow Gauge Portsmouth Railway, Ithymney Railway, Stroud and Chalford Roads, Stroud, Cainscross, and Minchinbamp ton Road. The Leek Improvement Bill was considered and ordered to be read a third time. The Southampton Pavin Trust St. Pancras Bill was read a second time. FOURPENNY POSTAGE-STAMPS. In reply to Mr. ED: 131 R, Mr. WILSON said the fourpenny postage-stamps to cover the French postage would be issued early in the ensuing month. TESTAMENTARY JURISDICTION BILL. In reply to Mr. MALINS, The SOLICITOR•GENERAL said the state of busi ness before the house was such, that unless this bill was taken at a morning sitting, it might as well b© aban doned altogether. He thought, therefore, it would be impossible to take it in a morning sitting, andhe thought it best to say that it should be taken on next Friday evening, with the understanding that if it could not be taken then it should be taken on the following Tuesday evening. Mr. MALINS said he should rather the bill was abandoned altogether than forced through the house without discussion. Mr. HORSFIELD hoped the house would not lightly abandon so important a measure. ENCUMBERED ESTATES COURT (IRELAND). On the motion of Colonel DUNNE returns were or dered of the names of all officers or clerks appointed within the last six months to any office in the Encum bered Estates Court (Ireland), and of the salaries of such officers or clerks, and of the respective duties of their appointments ; and of the authority by virtue of which such appointments were made. CONDUCT OF THE WAR. ADJOURNED DEBATE. Oa the order of the day for the resumption of the debate on this subject, Mr. ROEBUCK, after craving the indulgence of the house for his own inability, arising from physical illness, to treat the question as he could wish, said that with re gard to the right hon. baronet (Sir J. Graham), his view were always consider e d by bin_ XI.. Roebuck) worthy of consideration, and he wished to know now why the right hon. gentleman, who, when he was a member of Lord Aberdeen's Government, declared the present war a just and necessary war, now declared himself all for peace. He wished to know what had brought about that extraordinary change in the mind, of the right honourable gentleman. (Hear, hear.) They all recollected, when the war trumpet was' sounded, how the right hon. ge ntlemant lewinto thattrump et . They all recollected the dinner at the Reform Club, and the dinner at the Mansion House. Whenthese things were we went to war, and disaste r followed upon war, and a mo tion was made by himself (Mr. Roebuck) which shattered Lord Aberdeen's Government ; but between the passinc, of that motion and the appointment of the Sebastopol Committee the right hen. gentleman seceded from the Ad ministration. He wanted then to know what had occurred to ( thangethe opinio n s of the right hon. gent l e man. (Hear, d retired hear.)

A special meeting of this company was held yesterday at the office, Great George-street, Westminster, to con sider a bill now before Parliament; Mr. Matins in the From a supplement to Tuesday's Gazette.) WAR-DEPARTMENT, JUNE 6. Lord Panmure has this day received two eespatches and their enclosures, of which the following are copies, addressed to his lordship by Field-Marshal the Lord Raglan, G.C.B. Before Sebastopol, May 26, 1855. My Lord,—l have the honour to report to your Lord ship that a portion of the Allied Armies took up a posi tion yesterday on this side of the Tchernaya, the left of the French resting under a redoubt established upon the edge of this ridge overhanging the valley, and opposite the Inkerman heights ; the right extending beyond Tractir ; and the ground more to the right, behind Chorgouna, being occupied by the Sardinian troops , aided in their advance by the 10th Hussars and 12th Lancers and the Horse Artillery, under Col. Parlby. Omer Pacha at the same time moved forward to the low heights in front of Balaklava, and thus afforde d support' to the French Divisions before him. These were commanded by General Canrebert, who pushed forward across the bridge of Tractir, and drove the enemy, who were not in great numbers, off, and having cleared his front, he withdrew to this side of the river, where he now remains. Sir Colin . Campbell advanced the Royal Marines from the high ridge on our extreme right to a point com manding the old Baidar-road; and Colonel Parlby, with the regiments I have mentioned, reconnoitred the country .on the immediate right of General La Marmora's posi tion, and patrolled along the Worolizow-road, in the di rection of Baidar. The appearance and bearing of the Sardinian troops are highly satisfactory, and I anticipate the greatest ad vantage from their addition to this army under their dis tinguished leader General La Marmora, whose zeal for the service and ardent desire to co-operate with us lam happy to have so early an opportunity of acknowledging and recording. Nothing of importance has occurred in the British trenches since I wrote to your lordship on the 19th inst. The death of Colonel Egerton, of the 77th, on the night of the 19th ultimo, as already announced to your lordship, prevented me receiving in due course the offi cial report of the conduct of the officers serving imme diately under him, and it is only a few days ago that I harrit that Captain Gilby was the next in se niorit y to im, of the 77th, on the occasion, and that he had highly distinguished himself. I deem it an act of justice to a most deserving officer to bring his conduct under the notice of your lordship. I enclose the returns of casualties to the 24th inst. Your lordship will regret to see that Lieutenant Wil liams of the 17th has been severely wounded. I have the greatest pleasure in announcing to your lordship the brilliant success which attended an attack by the French army of some ambuscades at the head of the Quarantine Bay, and in front of a cemetery near it. The attack was made on the night of the 22d, and the ope ration was completed o 4 the following evening. The enemy had collected a very large force on the first occa sion to resist our Allies ; but, notwithstanding, the French were enabled by their brilliant gallantry and de termined resolution to maintain themselves in the pits at the head of the bay on the 22d, and on the 23(1 to occupy the whole with less resistance on the part of th e Russians, who are stated to have sustained a very se vere loss. The French were necessarily exposed to a very heavy fire, and were assailed by vastly superior numbers. The achievement they accomplished redounds therefore highly to their renown, and is hailed with satisfaction by their Allies. An expedition, composed of British, French, and Turkish troops, sailed for Kertch on Tuesday evening and Wednesday morning, and I hope soon to be able to announce the landing of the corps, and the result of its first operations. It is commanded by Lieutenant-Gene ral Sir George Brown, and has been conveyed in Erg glish and French ships, under the command of Admiral Sir E. Lyons and Admiral Bruat, whose exertions to carry out this important service have been most con spicuous. The 31st Regiment has arrived from Corfu. I am much concerned to have to report that Major- General Buller has been obliged by the failure of his health to leave the army. He has been constant in the discharge of his duty since he joined this army, distin guished himself both at Alma and Inkerman. and per severed in taking his turn in the trenches until driven by illness to withdraw. I regret the loss of h;s services exceedingly. I have, &c., The Lord Panmurc, &c., &c., &c, chair. The CHIRMAN explained that the meeting was convened ; in compliance with the standing erclert of the House of Lords to consider a bill now before Parliament for enabling the company to make alterations in certain parts of the railway and to amend the former act. The prindipal object of the bill was to enable them to make a deviation in the line which was originally intended to pass under St. Bartholomew's Hospital, but, as it was thought that the vibrations from the passing of trains might interfere !with operations and patients, the deviation would be carried about thirty yards to the north of the intended line. The deviation would pass under Bartholomew•close instead of under a part of Little Britain.• The line would thus be made shorter and better than the original line. It was stated at the meeting recently held in the London Tavern that they would be enabled to announce the state of the share list at the present meeting. He was happy to say that the whole of the shares had been taken up and the deposit paid upon them. This of course in cluded the 15,000 shares taken up by the contractors. The share capital consisted of 100,000 shares of 101. I each, and they expected that 200,0001. more would com plete the line. He concluded by moving the resolution approving of the bill. Mr. ARMSTRONG seconded the motion, and, in doing so, adverted to the clear and satisfactory statement made by the chairman at the last meeting in respect to the practicability of the undertaking. He felt very much gratified to hear that the share list had been completed ; and he had no doubt the railway would be a safe and remunerative investment. Mr. J. HUGHES wished to know whether the contract with Messrs. Tredwell had been signed, and when the works would be commenced ? The CHAIRMAN said, it had been entered into 18 months ago, but they could not say exactly when they would be ready to commence the works. The contractor would take the line at so much per yard forward, or would complete the whole for a given sum from the Post-office to the Great Western Railway. The resolution approving the bill was carried unani mously, and a cordial vote of thanks to the chairman concluded the proceedings. Enclosure 8. Enclosure 9. RAGLAN. Enclosure 1.

My Lord,—l have the honour to enclose the Fort night Confidential Reports of the Generals of Division and Brigade to the 20th instant. I have likewise to transmit, for your lordship's infor mation, a letter from the Inspector-General of Hospi tals, showing the extent of the cholera to the latest period. I earnestly hope that the disease is not gaining ground.—l have, &c,, RAGLAN. The Lord Palmer°, &c. &c. &c. millions of limey, we had sacrificed thousands of gallant lives, and all for what ? He asked the right hon, gentleman if one object for which we had entered into war had been attained ; or whether the power of Russia had been cripple' ? (Hear.) Ile (Mr. Roebuck) stated some days since the country had not confidence in the noble lord's (Lord J. Russell's) conduct at the Conference of Vienna, and because there were persons in the Cabinet who held views similar to those of the right hon.,baronet, and that he by doing so was making a mistake he (the noble bold) held lan guage at Vienna inconsistent with and un worthy the character of an English states man. He then sided with the despots of the world, who would crush an independent people, and take from them the management of their own concerns. He should have whispered into the ears of Austria three words, which would be the watchword for the future in Europe, and these were Poland, Hungary, and Italy. (Hear, hear.) He knew he should be accused of rousing the question of nationalities by so saying, and he would support it against despotism. Had the noble lord done that, Austria would not have played fast and loose so long. (Hear.) The people had gone to war in the full confidence of their leaders, but they (the leaders) had not kept firm to their faith. (Hear.) He did not believe the noble lord at the head of the Government had been so wavering in his opinion. In crippling Russia, they were not to consider her honour, but consider mankind, whose battles we were fighting. (Hear.) Mr. S. HERBERT denied that the Duke of New castle in his despatch alluded to pledged the country to no peace until Sebastopol was captured or destroyed, but that he stated there would be no prospect of a peace until they had dealt such a blow to Russia as would induce her to submit to such terms as we hoped to be able to dictate to her. (Cries of oh, oh.) - If the capture of Sebastopol was to be the condition of peace, why was it not introduced into the four points ? (Hear, hear.) They were making a confusion between two things essentially different and distinct—they were confounding the operations of war as the means to an end and the end they sought for by war. (Hear.) After adverting to the confusion of opinions prevailing on the question of peace or war, the right honourable gentleman said the party with whom he was con nected considered there was nothing inconsistent or dishonourable in their conduct in advocating peace now they considered tbe• objects of the war had been obtained. Itwas not without deep and weighty considerations that he came to the conclusion that his voice should be given in favour of a declaration of war, and the objects to be attained were the abolition of that net-work of treaties by which Russia held Turkey in her grasp—that exclusive Protectorate which gave Russia a right of interference in Turkey and the freedom of the navigation of the Danube. The documents with refe rence to the origin of the war were now historical docu ments, and in them there was not one word stated about limitation, which was a child of after-growth. When they asked him how he could now be for peace when he had been in favour of war, be asked in return how those who had been for war, now the objects for which this country went to war had been attained, they could say they were worthless ; and if worthless as terms of peace, how they were of sufficient value on which to continue the war ? (Hear, bear.) That was his answer to that part of the question. Now, he thought we bad not done ourselves justice as a coun try, nor had we done ourselves justice, considering the extent of the submission to which Russia had been forced. What was the difference in the present position of Turkey with regard to Russia, as compared with what it was at the commencement of the war ? Russia then occupied the Principalities ; she had now evacuated them. At the commencement of the campaign there were varied successes of the allied armies. There were the destruction of the fortresses in Circassia, the capture of Bomareund, the block ade of the two seas, and the destruction of the Russian forts, and the consequent inability of Russia to display a flag in either of those waters. Then succeeded insurrections in some of those provinces where the peasantry were Russian and the nobility Po lish ; and discontent among the nobility who were accus tomed to seek throughout Europe for those pleasures they could not find at home ; and last, though not least, they had Russia, the most exclusively military power in the world, unable to expel from her shores two hostile armies encamped on her soil. (Hear, hear.) Last of all, there were our successes at Kertch, and another place taken by the English. It had been said that he and the two right hon. gentlemen who bad left the Government with himself, that they were never heartily in favour of the war, and had never properly exerted themselves. Why, if they could be guilty of such base and treasonable conduct after so long a public career as they had seen, there was np use in character, and he for one would enter into no protests, caveats, or denials in such a case. The right hon. gentleman then proceeded to read des patches which he said be had the permission of the noble lord at the head of the Government to do, for the pur pose of showing that the ;:accusation made againstthe hon. gentleman (SirJ. Graham) and himself were unfounded, for in these despatches the right hon. baronet stated dis tinctly that any proper opportunity for the bombard ment of Odessa was not to he lost sight of. Now, he felt it incumbent upon him, in defence of Admiral Dundas, to state that that gallant admiral wished to make the attack upon Odessa, but he was prevented from doing so, not by the English General, but the French Adult rat, who, looking upon the attack in a str ttegeti cal point of view, con.irlred that if the attack was made it would certainly fail, and acting upon that opinion, Admiral Dundas thought the more prudent course would be not to make it. Ad miral Dpndas, therefore, was entirely acquitted of any blame in what had taken place. Now, if there was any doubt with respect to the part taken by the right hon. baronet the member for Carlisle, he would read another despatch that would place it beyond doubt— Lord SEYMOUR rose to order, and was [LEFT SPEAKING.] MELA.NCIIOLY ACCIDENT.— FALSE ALARM.-011 Wed nesday last, Corporal Robinson, of the 70th Regimeet, and two privates went over to Maidstone gaol from Chatham, to escort back three prisoners. On their way home in the evening they stopped at the beer-shop just paat the fourth milestone on the Reechester road, to obtain some refreshment. After staying a short time the corporal got up, saying, "Come on, my lads, now let's start." He then went to the door, taking his mus ket with him. A nian of the party states that he beard a noise as of the butt-end of the piece . dropping on the doorstep, and immediately afterwards an explosion. At the same instant the poor corporal fell backwards into the room. It was soon discovered that his musket had exploded, and that the ball had entered his face near the left side of his mouth, and passed through his skull. It then struck the woodwork above the door, glanced on the ceiling, and fell on the floor just by the corporal's head. Shortly after wards two men arrived at the Maidstone depot with the alarming intelligence that Vie prisoners had revolted, and had shot the corporal in their entice,- yours to escape. One stated that be had seen a soldier with his piece cocked and threatening to shoot any one who dared approach. Colonel Grath was absent, but a serjeaut was sent off to Colonel Raiders at his residence, Rocky-hill. In accordance with his directions Setjeant Sunntiek, a corporal, and three men of the 12th Lancers, mounted and armed, rode off in hot haste, nor drew rein till they arrived at the scene, where a very short exami nation sufficed to convince the ,erjeant that accident, and not murder, had caused the fatality, and they returned home much disappointed at not having had to encounter the desperadoes they bad conjured up on their way. The remaining men of the party conveyed their prisoners to Chatham. An inquest was held on the body on Thurs day nieht, by Mr. Dadlow, and a verdict of " Accidental death" was returned. QUALIFICATION OF JUSTICES OF THE PEACE.—A hilr prepared and brought in by Mr. Colvde, Viscount Ein lyn, and Mr. Ker Seynaer amen.is the laws relating to the qualification of justices of the peace. No person shall be capable of being a justice of peace unless he be qualified-1, by possessing an estate in land within Eng land or \Vales for his own use and benefit of the clear yearly value of 100/. ; or, 2, by possessing a personal estate of 3001. ; or, 3, by possessing a clear yearly income of at least 3001., derived from a Government office or pension ; or, 4, by possessing more than one of the several kinds of property hereinbefore mentioned, all amount ing in the aggregate to the clear yearly value of 3001. Persons acting without having declared their qualifica tions will be fined 501., recoverable in a County Court. No qualification by estate shall be required of peers of Parliament, Privy Councillors, justices of either Bench or barons of the Exchequer, eldest sons of peers, or eldest sons of persons capable of being elected county members. The following persons will be qualified by office, viz.:— Officers of the Board of Green Cloth, Heads of Colleges, Vice-Chancellors and Mayors at Oxford and Cambridge, Judges of County Courts, Commissioners of the Navy, Under-Secretaries of State, and the Secretary of Chelsea College, &c. Attorneys, solicitors , a nd p roctors are especially disqualified. This act will not extend to par ticular jurisdictions. It is to take effect on the Ist of January, 1856, and to be limited to England and Wales. HORSES FOR THE CAVALRY OF THE FOREIGN LEGION. —Within the past week a very large number of horses have been purchased for the Government, and they have arrived at the cavalry depots of Maidstone, Canterbury, and Brighton, for the purpoSe of being trained. On Tuesday, 27 beautiful animals arrived in this town by railway, and as they were led through the streets they excited general admiration.

FIVE PERSONS DROWNED ON LOCH LONG.—On the evening of Sunday last a most distressing accident oc curred on Loch Long, an arm. of the sea running up from the Firth of Clyde. It appears that two Irish la bourers, Lamed Kean and Reilly, who were employed in the quarries at Cone, accompanied by Mrs. Christie, the wife of a slater, with whom they lodged, Mrs. M'Cross mick, the wife of a labourer, and a son of Mrs. Christie about 14 years of age, started from Cove for Portinsuck, on the other side of the loch. They used an open boat, only eight feet in length, and it is said that the ob ject of the trip was to procure a supply of whisky. They were observed to return about 7 p.m., and when near the middle of the loch, and _ about a --- - mile from the shore, the boat was seen suddenly to cap size. Three boats were immediately launched from the beach, but upon the first of them reaching the spot it was found that the two men and the boy had disap peared. The women, however, were floating, having been buoyed up by their clothes ; but they were in a state of insensibility, and, though they were carried on shore witliout delay and every means used for resuscita tion, these, we regret to say, were unavailing. As all have thus perished, it is impossible to ascertain the cir cumstances which caused the upsetting of the boat • but if the men were tipsy, as h as b een alleged, it is l i kely that the accident may be attributed to that cause. BLYTH AND TYNE. A special meeting of this company was held at New castle on Tuesday for the purpose of empowering the directors to raise the share capital authorised by the act of 1854 for making the Dairy-house and Morpeth branches and the Tyaemouth and Longhurst extensions. The chair was occupied by Mr. John Carr. The CHAIRMAN said that the Parliamentary powers were procured by the directors to make those extensions, to prevent an opposition company from taking an im portant line of country from them. The directors be lieved they would be valuable adjuncts to the old line, and they were satisfied that they would be of great benefit to the company. He moved a resolution authorising the directors to create 6,000 new extension. shares, "of the value of 181. 6s. Bd. each, for the pur pose of making and completing the works authorised to be constructed under the Blyth and Tyne Railway Con solidation and Extension Act of 1854 ; that such new shares be issued to the proprietors in the proportion of one for every 251. share ; and, in case any proprietor should neglect to take his or her proportion of such new shares on or before the first of August next, the directors shall dispose of the same for the benefit of the company. The deposit to be 1/. 6s. Bd. per share on the let c,f August next, and calls of 21. per share to he paid in October and January next. The new shares to be en titled to equal dividends with the old shares on the amount paid up." The resolution was . seconded by Mr. CRUDDOS. The CHAIRMAN, in reply to Mr. H. Taylor, said that doubling the line, and making additional shipping places would be the first things attended to by the directors. They proposed doubling the line to Seghill, and cutting through Prospect-hill immediately. The resolution was agreed to unanimously, and the meeting separated. EAST KENT AND SOUTH-EASTERN. Mr. J. Whitehead, of the firm of Messrs. Carden and Whitehead, has just made a proposition to the directors and shareholders of the South-Eastern Company, urging them to enable the East Kent Railway Company to ex tend their authorised line from Canterbury to Dover. Mr. Whitehead states, on the part of the East Kent Company, that they would be disposed to concede to the South-Eastern Company the following terms : "1. That a portion, to be agreed upon, of the East Kent extension capital of 500,0001. shall be appropriated to the Shareholders in the South-Eastern Company. " 2. That the South-Eastern Railway Company shall have a working lease of the East Kent line for a term of years to be agreed upon, the South-Eastern Company finding the necesary rolling stock. " 3. That the South-Eastern Company shall pay as rent for the same 46.335 th parts of the net profits which may accrue on the total mileage, the remaining 289- 335th parts being retained by the South-Eastern Com pany ; the rent paid for the Reading and Reigate and other leased lines being charged against the gross re ceipts, but not the intersst on the mortgnge debt of the two companies, which is to be borne by the:ia respec tively." He concludes by stating that be looks upon the question now submitted as possessing greater moment than any which has yet occurred affecting South-E istern interests. A section of the directors of the latter company state, in reply, that matters are not at present in such a state as to enable them to enter effectually into the negotia tion proposed by Mr. Whitehead.. 11, will be recollected that the directors of the South- Eastern Company had expended during nine years, up to 1854, the sum of 470,0001. in law and Parliamentary expenses, being at the rate of 52,0001. a-year fer the alleged purpose of defending the property of the company in the district traversed by the company's railways. It now appears to be the opinion of very influential partied that great advantages would arise to the public service from the construction of a second line to Dover. IRISH AND SCOTCH BANKS. The returns of circulation of the Irish and Scotch banks for the four weeks ending , the 12th of May last, when added together, give the following as the average weekly circulation of these banks during the past month, viz. : Average circulation of the Irish banks... Average circulation of the Scotch banks, £6 34 9 9 50 ... 3,901,301 Average circulation during past mouth _210,243,551 On comparing the above with the fixed issues of the several hanks, as given in the Banking Almanac, the following appears to be the sts.`e of the circulation : The Irish banks are below their fixed issue The Scotch banks are above their fixed issue. £12,244 814,092 Total above the fixed issue L 501,848 The amounts of gold and silver held at the bead offices of the several banks during the past month have been as follows : Gold and silver held by the Irish banks Gold and silver held by the Scotch banks ,21,949,349 . 1,635,390 Total of gold and silver held £1,584,745 The above statements complete ths , returns of the (dr cqlation in England, Scotland, and Ireland for the month ending the 12th of May. These returns show an increase of 522,3891. in he circulation of notes in England, and an increase of 560,542/. in the circulation of the United Kingdom, when compared with the month ending the 14th of April, 1854 ; and, as compared with the month ending the 13th of May, 1854, the above returns show a decrease of 1,722,1081. in the circulation of notes in England, and a decrease of 2,031,6831. in the circulation of the United Kingdom. _ _ The average stock of bullion held by the Bank of Eng land in both departments during the month ending the 12th of May was 15,554,8321., being an increase of 497,6711., as compared with the previous month ; and an increase of 2,697,9661. when compared with the same period last year. The stock of specie held by the Scotch and Irish banks during the month ending the 12th of May was 3,584,7451., being a decrease of 23,1801. as compared with the previous return, and an increase of 93,0231. when compared with the corresponding period last year.

The makers of goods are hastening in the wake of spinners, as fast as they can. A considerable advance is required to-day. On the other hand it is quite evident that buy ers are paralysed. The foreign merchants compare prices here with those which are obtainable in their several markets, and they dare not operate. As for the home consumers of yarns, the manufacturers, they do not know how to act in their capacity of buyers. Thus matters stand : spinners sanguine, and indifferent about selling at advances which average, we may say, lid. to 2d. per lb. (nearly 2d.) in the medium and lower counts of yarns since the first week in March; manufac turers firm, but not equally sanguine, 2.t advances vary ing from id. to lid. per lb. in the same time ; while the bu ers, e rplexed, dare not attempt to operate, except y p in a small way for the supply of immediate wants. ROCHDALE, June. 4.—We have had a steady market for flannels, and the manufacturers are asking better prices. The wool market has not undergone mu ch chan g e since last week, but the demand is tolerably good and prices firm. HALIFAX, June 2.—The business in our piece-hall to day has been as languid as usual, and the sales of goods, of any description, very limited. Yarns and wools have undergone no change. HUDDERSFIELD, JUNE s.—The market has been very quiet to-day. The wool merchants have been busier during the past week than for some time previously. THE LITTLE MYSTERY.—The lugger Mystery (of 16 tons) arrived safely at Melbourne on the 14th March from Penzance. Enclosure. Before Sebastopol, May 26, 1855. My Lord,—l have the honour to enclose a return of the daily progress of cholera in the army in the Crimea, from 19th to 25th May inclusive. • Your lordship will observe by this return that the disease moderated in violence, and that the mortality is one-third less than it was during the preceding seven days, though I cannot say that the number of attacks has diminished in proportion, or that the disease has been circumscribed by narrower limits ; on the contrary, if anything, more' generally diffused, as cases have oc curred in every division. At BAlaklava several admissions into the General Hospital there have taken ulace from the Sardinian Contingent, from the Land Transport Corps, and frop ships in the harbour, which have swelled out our lists of both admissions and deaths. The removal of the Buffs and 48th Regiment to higher and drier ground has been attended with good results. Gnat attention is paid to the sanitary condition of the camps, and to all matters that it is thought may tend ,to dissipate the disease. The attention of medical offieors has been drawn to the subject of cholera belts, and I have reason to believe that the whole army has been supplied with them, and if not, the supply in store is ample enough to meet the demand. —I have, k,c., J.

ADMIRALTY, JUNE G. kdespatch, of which the following is a copy, has been received from Rear-Admiral Sir Edmund Lyons, Bart., G.C.8., Commander-in-Chief of herMajesty'o ships and vessels in the Mcditotranean and Black Sea. Royal Albert, Straits of Kertcb, May 26, 1855. Sik,—l have great pleasure in requesting you to in form the Lords Commissioner.; of the Admiralty that the Allied forces- are maters of the Straits of Kertch, and that they have in the Sea of Azoff a powerfful steam flotilla, of light draught of water, capable of cutting off the enemy's supplies, and harassing him at all points ; and, moreover, that the means are at hand for sending in a vast number of gun-boats of the lighter draught, if it should be found desirable to do so. My letter of the 22d inst., N). 396, will have informed their lordships that an Allied expedition, consisting .of 15,000 men of all arms, and live batteries of artillery, were then on the point of leaving the anchorage off Se bastopol, for Kertch, and my message by electric tele graph will have announced the complete' success ,f that expedition ; but it now remains for me to give an ac count of our proceedings for their lordships' informa- tion. The fleet, which consisted of her Majesty's ships named in the margin,* and a French Fleet of nearly equal force, under the command of my very gallant and energetic colleague, Vice-Admiral Bruat, assembled off the Straits of Kertch at early dawn .on the birthday of her Most Gracious Majesty the Queen, and both armies and navies confidently anticipated a success ful celebration of that auspicious day. ,The fleets steamed rapidly up to Kamiesh, where the army landed under cover of the guns of the steam-frigates, and immediately ascended the - heights without opposition, whilst the steamers of light draught of water pushed on to wards Kertch and Yenikale ; abd the enemy ap parently taken by surprise at the rapidity of these movements, and at the imposing appearance of the expedition; blew up his fortifications on both sides of the Straits,. mounting not less than fifty guns (new and of heavy calibre), which have fallen into our possession, and retired after having destroyed three steamers, and several other heavily-armed vessels, as well as large large quantities of provisions, ammuni tion, and stores, thus leaving us masters of the entrance into the Sea of Azoff, without our having sustained any loss whatever. 4. As the disembarkation was unopposed, in conse quence of the, fire of the steam-frigates having arrested the advance of the enemy, there was no field for the gallantry that animated every one in the expedition ; but the duties they bad to perform -were very arduous, and I should be doing injustice to them and to my own feelings if I were not to say that no Commander in-Chief was ever more ably assisted than I am by the captains and those under their command—one and all follow the admirable example of the zeal ous and talented second in command, Rear-Admiral Stewart, and they could not possibly.do better. There was, however, an incident during the day that called forth the admiration of both fleets, and which deserves to be partiCularly notice& Lieutenant M`Killop, whose gun-vessel, the Snake, was not employed like the others in lantling troops, dashed past the forts after an enemy's steamer, and although he soon found himself engaged not only with her but also with two others who came to her support, he persevered, and by the cleverness and extreme rapidity of - his manoeu vres prevented the escape of alt three, and they were subsequently destroyed by the enemy, and the Snake had not a man hurt, though shot passed through the vessel. _ _ _ _ 5. Yesterday Admiral Bruat and Z accompanied the combined steam flotilla, named in the margin,t into the Sea of Azoff, and despatched them, under the orders of * Royal Albert, Hannibal, Algiers, Agamemnon, St. Jean d'Acre, Princess Royal, Sidon, Valorous, Leopard, Tribune, Simoom, Furious, Highflyer, Terrible, Miranda, Sphinx, Spit fire, Gladiator, Vesuvius, Curlew, Swallow, Caradoc, Strom boli, Ardent, Medina, Wrangler, Viper, Lynx, Recruit, Arrow, Banshee, Snake, Beagle. t Miranda, Vesuvius, Curlew, Swallow, Stromboli, relent, Medina, Wrangler, Viper,_Lynx, Recruit, Beagle, and Aye French pteam-veroiels.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. ASCOT-HEATH RACES.—WEDNESDAY. The racing to-day was surpast,ingly interesting and attractive. The fields wore numerically important, and the respective encounters were close and well sustained. The weather, too, conduced to the unrestrained enjoy ment of the sport ; throughout the day the sun shone with unclouded brilliancy. The Hunt Cup was the principal feature in the pro gramme of the day's sport, and it occasioned a remarkably fine encounter. This prize has generally produced one of the most interesting races of the meeting, but the con test on the present occasion was more than usually ex citing. Twenty-four horses ran, and Chalice won by a short head only in the last stride. The cup, so called, was manufactured at the estab lishment of Messrs. Hunt and Roskill, goldsmiths to the Queen, from a design and model by Mr. Brown. It is, in fact, a candelabrum of pure silver, and consists of the twisted stems of vines supporting sockets for lights. On the base, which represents a rocky piece of ground, is seen a combat between two dogs and a wolf. The wolf has disabled one of his antagonists, but the other has seized him by the throat and vanquished him. The race for the Handicap Plate was one of the finest ever beheld, and the closeness of the struggle testified to the great practical ability with which the weights had been adjusted. Although Wednesday is considered the " off day " of the meeting, yet it is always marked by incidents of importance. In this respect the proceedings to-day will bear comparison with those of the " grandest day " of the gathering. The attendance of general company was fully equal to au average. Subjoined is a return of the running : Fifth Ascot Triennial Stakes, of 10 sovs each, with 100 added, for 4-yr-olds ; colts, Bst 71b ; fillies, Bst 41b. Certain allowances.

By her Majesty's Royal Letters Patent for valuable and extraordinary improvements in the most powerful and brilliant Telescopes, Camp , Race course, Opera, and Perspective Glasses, to know the distances of objects viewed through them—of great importance to the army, navy, and others. These telescopes possess such extra ordinary powers that some 3 inches, with an extra eye piece, will show distinctly Jupiter's moons, Saturn's ring, and the double stars ; with the same telescope can be seen a person's counterauce three miles and a half distant, ard an object from 16 to 20 miles. They are of larger and all sizes, with increasing powers accordingly ; while their vary ing from 4 to 6 inches enable us to discover more than the above, and the Georgian, with his 6 satellites, &c.—The Royal Exhibition, 1851.—Valuable, newly-invented, very small, Powerful waistcoat-pocket glass,the size of a walnut, by which a person can be seen and known 1 miles distant ; they answer every purpose on the race-course, and at the opera houses, country scenery, and ships are clearly seen at 8 to 10 miles. They are invaluable for shooting, deer-stalking, yachting, to sportsmen, gentlemen, . gamekeepers, and tourists. Opera, race-course, camp, and perspective glasses, with wonderful power. —Newly-constructed Spectacle Lenses of the great est transparent power. The valuable advantage derived from this invention is, that vision becoming impaired is preserved and strengthened, and vel7 aged persons are enabled to employ their sight at the most minute occu pation —can see with these lenses of a much less maomify ing po wer —and they do not require the frequent changes to the dangerous effects of further powerful assistance. Deaf ness—New Discovery.—The Organic Vibrator, an extraordi nary powerful, small, newly-invented instrument for deafness, entirely different from all others, to surpass anything of the kind that has been, or probably ever can be, produced. Being of the same colour as the skin, is not perceptible ; it enables deaf persons to hear distinctly at church and at public assemblies ; the unpleasant sensation of singing noises iu the ears is entirely removed ; and it affords all sing assist ance that possibly could be desired. 39, Albemarle-Rivet, rioadillY.
