Lord ELLENBoßotron's motion, although very ably brought forward and efficiently supported, has been rejected by a large and decisive majority. Of Peers in attendance there were 71 in favour of, and 110 against, the resolutions ; and Ministers enhanced their numbers by recording 66 proxies on their side,while nonewere produced on behalf of their opponents. The actual numbers therefore were 181 to 71, or nearly five to two against the motion. This result is perhaps not very surprising, consi dering the arena in which the contest took place. A less favourable audience could scarcely be selected to complain to of an oligarchical Govern ment, and the undue selection of Noble Lords and their immediate relatives and connexions for situa tions that might have been more efficiently filled by less aristocratic persons. The demand for Administrative Reform fell unpleasingly on the ears of those who had profited in the persons of their proteges so largely by the obnoxious system. There were few of the assembled Peers who had not some friend who might be affected by the required changes in the public offices. The very name of " reform" was distasteful to those who had invariably been its strongest opponents, whatever aspect it assumed. The mere notion of " the selection of men for public employments, -without regard to anything but the public sod.- vice," was a heresy that startled many of their lordships from the frigid indifference which they ordinarily display, and induced them to flock to the scene of action in order to defeat the daring effort. Lord ELLENBOROUGH had indeed undertaken a task of no ordinary difficulty, and he performed the arduous duty with admirable tact and judg ment. Many might have thought that he touched too lightly on the monster grievances ; but he was well aware of the feelings of his auditors, and he suited his tone in manyparticulars to theircherislied prejudices. Had he been in the House of Commons, or, still better, in the London Tavern, with SAMUEL MORLEY in the chair, and surrounded by congenial spirits, we have no doubt that his eloquence would have been more brilliant, his arguments more convincing. Let it not be sup posed that we are censuring the Noble Lord for any shortcomi ngs or b ac k s lidings. Far from it. On th e con t rary, h e was ent i t l e d t o th e greater credit for th e o b v i ous diffi cu l t i es by w hich his eours " ia s impeded, a and uhich he surmounted by . judicious Combination of boldness and dis cretion. is,Tothin. felicitous than his allusion instance, could be mare many other to the founders of I; ii own and noble . families---what lie justly termed " the of their origins !" How could they, w h P o rinei P le awed and fortunes House, their honours thei r sea t s i n th,it to the ser vices of their ancestors, consistently say, " It is true our ancestors rose by fitness, but our re.a_ tives shall enjoy advantages from connexion us, and from favour !" There was equal truth and boldness in the assertion, that "to attribute anything to the defects of system is the subterfuge of convic'cd mediocrity. Mediocrity succumbs to system. Ability dominates over it, and forces men into a better course." This is clearly applicable to those /Ow strive to excuse themselves by attribut ing their Own errors and mistakes—their offences of commissi on and omission—to the prevailing routine or practice of their offices. It does not render it the less necessary for the community at large to strive with all its power and all its 1 strength to get rid of the vicious system, and to remove as many obstacles as possible from the way of Ministers, so that they may be able, with out regard to the murmurings of the " Tapers" and " Tadpoles," to place " the right meu iu the right places"—to select the ablest men in their respective departments for the public service. This is the principle for which the Administrative Reformers contend—this is the principle asserted by Lord ELLENBOROUGH in his place in the heredi tary branch of the Legislature-. This is the prin ciple rejected by their Lordships, by a majority of 110 out of 252 —or, including tellers, 256 titled voters ! The arguments adduced will, however, have greater weight with the great body of the People than the members who gave silent votes, or sent their proxies against it. It is not be cause Lord NOODLE deemed it a revolutionary doctrine, or Viscount DOODLE conceived the attempt to deprive the nobility of their long recognised privileges as little better than a general " confiscation," or the Earl of NEPOS thought it very unfair to poor AUGUSTUS and FREDERICK, and asked, with tears in his eyes, how could noblemen in such cases provide comfortable sinecures for their younger sons, or find husbands for their daughters, that the voice of public opinion is to be slighted or despised. That voice has proclaimed " trumpet-tongued " the great fact, that "it is absolutely necessary for the future to adopt a new principle in the selec tion of officers for the public employment, and, if disregarded in the Upper House, it must be treated with deference and respect in that which pecu liarly belongs to the people, in which every mem ber owes his right of voting to the suffrages of his constituents. I The defence by Lord PANAITIRE was exceedingly weak and vapid. He complained because his op ponent did not descend from generalities to parti culars—did not adduce instances of the "QUEEN'S bad bargains," and cite the names of some of the many detrimentals in the public service. But there was no necessity for entering into such details when their name was "legion," and when every man throughout the length and breadth of the land could himself speak of his own knowledge as to persons who fell within the scope of the Noble Earl's condemnation. Lord PANMUItE, who was, perhaps, the last man who ought to have com plained of the forbearance thus strikingly dis played, announced the doctrine that "public opinion ought to lead both Parliaments and Go vernments." In other words, that every " aged vice" should be retained until it could no longer be defended—until the pressure from without be came too powerful to be any longer resisted. Lard ELLENBOROUGH, on the other hand, called on their Lordships "to place themselves in the front of the people, and at the foot of the Throne to state their complaint and their dissatisfaction." It does not require very astute arguments to show which is the more dignified course, or which is more befitting the constitutional attributes of heredi tary legislators. Administrative Reformers must not, however, be discouraged by this failure. We repeat that which should be inscribed on their banner, Palma non sine pulvere. They cannot expect immediate success without setting their shoulders to the wheels, and exerting themselves zealously and energetically in the glorious cause to which they have so devoted themselves. Lord ELLENBOROUGH'S motion may be regarded as the first step, so far as Parliament is concerned, in the path in which we hope and believe rapid progress will speedily be made. We believe the view which we have advocated from the beginning will soon be the universal one —that no peace can be made worth having with- out Russia on her knees. That was the policy of the Allies towards France, even when during the hundred days she had given no indication of in tending any aggressions upon the rest of Europe. Why should Russia be dealt with more leniently now ? We look back upon the peace we have escaped with almost the sensations of one who perceives at dawn that he has in the darkness been treading the brink of some dreadful precipice. Peace was to be concluded on the basis of the illusive Four Points, - without one word of many serious questions raised by the incidents of the War itself. Not a word of the brave Circassians, nor of Bomarsund and the Alanders ; not a word of indemnity either to the Allies or to Turkey, whose exchequer the aggressor has almost drained. Not a word of the surrender to Turkey of all the territory bordering on the mouth of the Danube, of which Russia deprived that Power, and of which she has made so infamous a use ; and even the evacuation in perpetuity of the Black Sea by her ships of war was not insisted on, notwithstand ing our having that point absolutely in our power. All this must be reversed, if we are to have a speedy, not to say a safe peace. Let the Allies openly lay down as their rule of conduct before all Europe, that all they acquire by their arms, whe ther by sea or by land, shall cease. for ever to belong to Russia, and we believe that she would make peace only too speedily. The folly of Lord JOHN RUSSELL'S declaration that the Allies did not wish to deprive Russia of any of her (stolen) territory has probably done more than anything else to prevent peace. Coupling this with the imbecility which courted Austria, let her into the provinces, and then made her president in a peace con ference, why should Russia put herself in a fright ? Very different would have been the effect had we pronounced each conquest forfeited for ever by the aggressor—had we, as soon as her ships were sunk at Sebastopol, proclaimed that not a Russian vessel of war should ever float again on the Black Sea. And again, when Bomar sund fell, that no Russian soldier should ever assert Russian power again in the Aland Isles ; and when we took Eupatoria that it ceased thenceforth for ever to be a Russian town. Had we added, as we might easily have done, Odessa and other places to such a list—in all probability the CZAR would have soon put an end to a war, every year of which would have only branded his wickedness and folly with greater and permanent disgrace. Suppose we become, as we hope to be, masters of the Crimea—it will then be ours by at least as good a right as that of Russia ; wo should say a better one. Let it bo announced at once to all Europe that it is Russia's no more. Perhaps 2orne would like her to redeem it ; if so, the low est price must bo to refund to Turkey, to Eng land, to France, to Sardinia, to all but Austria, every penny of expense to which the War a p r a r s s o has put them. A policy like this is the only one by w hi c h a b ar b arous an d cunning, yet Prom the be r gi s n y n , ing all has been s acrificed by ir..- timely geinute etopfower, the Pruth t o th e crue l massacre at can be brought to her senses. .inope, and t henee or—query—timidity ? Frc in to the after r nua Conferences, all has been cond ucte how littl e woul d on the prin c ipl e o f try i ng d d o polite distance, an d the naval murder THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, MAY 15, 1855. were directed to salute the Russian flag ; Odessa was spared ; Polish levies rejected, and Poland not nientioued ; everything done indeed to that Russia was to b© hurt as little as possible. It was not by such processes our great com manders conquered India, and quieted in later times the formidable Sikhs or the Burmese. In India we have always diminished the territory of the aggressors and enfeebled their power. Nor will any other policy teach the CZARS to respect the rights of civilised States. There is one reason which must decide all but the most unworthy of statesmen to concede not a ship to Russia in the Black Sea ; and that is, that we could now, at no very heavy expense, take permanent possession both of that and the Baltic, and let Russia do her worst. If we saw good to withdraw the greater part of our troops, or to maintain any reasonable number of them in the Crimea, we could completely im prison Russia for twenty years, if she choose to stand out, and at a very small annual cost to the Allies. All her articles of produce would be speedily furnished us from other countries ; her sailors would forget how to steer a ship ; her trade would be ruined, her exchequer bankrupt, and, probably, domestic insurrection would close the scene. But for the necessity of emancipating Po land, a naval siege of Russia, as it is by far the cheapest, so it, might even be the best means of humbling her arrogance. LATEST NEWS. THE SIEGE OF SEBASTOPOL. BERLIN, MONDAY, MAY 14. A despatch from St. Petersburg, dated the 13th inst., says : Prince Gorstchakoff writes as follows on the evening of the Bth inst.:-- The fire of the enemy is moderate. The Allied fleet, which got under weigh on the 3d, only went as far as within view of Kertch, and then returned. A portion of the troops that were on board the ships appears to have been landed in Kamiesh Bay. MARSEILLES, MONDAY MORNING. A Queen's messenger, who left Constantinople on the 3d inst., on board the Pericles, embarked at Malta on board the Arabia for Toulon. He left Marseilles at 9 o'clock this morning.

On the motion of Lord REDESDALE the following bills were read a third time :—Jedburgh Railway, Ban gor Marketr, Plymouth Gas, and Birmingham Water Bills. THE BALTIC FLEET. DANTZIC, MAY 11. The Driver steamer, Captain Gardner, arrived here last night, having been up with the fleet as far as the Aland Isles. She reports that the Gulf of Finland is packed with ice right across from Revel to Aland, and that all communication with the shore is imprac ticable. The Driver left the fleet on the 9th, and, having landed a mail, consisting of more than 4,000 letters, she returns to rejoin the fleet to night. Owing to the vast number of letters, our post office authorities found it impossible to sort them to-night, so that they will not leave till to morrow's post. BERLIN, TUESDAY, MAY 15. The French fleet, consisting of the Duquesne, Austerlitz (Admiral's ship), Tourville, and the cor vette d'Assas anchored in Kiel harbour on the evening of the 13th. The Conflict left Elsinore on the 13th. AUSTRIA. VIENNA, May 14.—The Austrian Gazette still thinks that peace is possible. It says that Austria will only engage in war in case of extremity. FRANCE. PARIS, Monday.—This morning Pianori under went capital punishment. The rumours which have been in circulation for some days that an appeal would be madefor 250,000 more men, and a new loan, are formally contra dicted. SWEDEN. STOCKHOLM, May s.—lt is now more than a fort night ago that the British and French envoys at this court received orders from their respective go vernments to present to King Oscar a communica tion urging him to sign a treaty of o ff ens i ve an d defensive aliance with the Western Powers, under very favourable conditions, for they not only are willing to guarantee him the possession of his pre sent territorial possessions, but offer him a hand some annual subsidy for the co-operation of his army and navy. The Swedish cabinet, of counse, made a difficulty of assenting to the proposals, and. urged Sweden's treaty of neutrality with Denmark, and the necessity of waiting to see the result of the Vienna conferences, and the part su b sequent l y taken by Prussia and Austria. Similar orders were sent to the envoys at Copen hagen, but with similar results, and Admiral Du n d is, during his late interview with the Danish King, urged him als© in vain. The communication was withdrawn by mutual consent, or ratherallowed to stand over, till the results of the Vienna con ferences were known. That being now the came, the proposition has again been placed in the hands of the King. SPAIN. The fifteenth bisis of the Constitution has been approved of by the Cortes. The Duke and Duchess of Montpensier are going to Italy at the beginning of June. The Madrid correspondent of La Presse leai•zis that the Spanish ministry has found it necessary to remove several persons from high offices at the court, where they exercised an influence pernicious to the nation. GERMANY. The Austrian Gazette and Ost. Deutsche P,),lt concur in stating that the courts of Vienna and Berlin have made great progress towards a com mon understanding within the last few days. Bor lin journals say that Austria will not now follow up in the Diet the proposition to mobilise the federal army of Germany. lONIAN ISLES. The lonian Parliament was opened on the Isit inst., by the new Lord High Commissioner, Sir John Yo'ing. His Excellency referred, in lan guage of congratulation, to the tranquillity prevail ing in the islands, notwithstanding distress con i se quent upon the failure of the crops. He aso announced the intention of the British Goveim ment to waive a portion of its rights, and all ow the payment of 5,0001. of the military contributi to be deferred, with the view of aiding the di,- tressed. ITALY. - We read in the Piedmontese Gazette of the 10th inst. : "A telegraphic despatch from Balaklava, addreqsed by General Alpheus() La Marmora to the Minister .of War at Turin, under date the 9th of May, 10 o'clock a.m., announces the arrival at Balaklava of the Gen eral and his trcops, after a passage of ten days, including two days' stoppage at Constantinople. The voyage was performed without accident, and the sick on board were few iu number. The steamers which arrived at B tia klava with the General are the Authion, Charity, Cleo patra, Europa, Thames, and Jura, and the sailing vessels they had in tow." The discussion on the Convent Suppression Bill still continued in the Senate. On the 9th Messrs.. Mario and Doria spoke in favour of the projei3t, and M. Pallavicino Mossi against it. Senators Colla and Des Ambrois subsequently moved amendments, ono of which, proposed by the latt,3r, was supported by M. Giacinto di Collegno, a nil finally accepted by the President of the Council of Ministers. The Liverpool letters yesterday morning mention the arrival of some cargoes of flour from Chili, which ave said to be approved.

The Earl of MALMESBURY called the attention of the leader of the Government to a circumstance that occurred last night, in the division that took place upon the motion of the Earl of Ellenborough. After the divi sion, proxies were called on the part of the Government, at a time when a considerable number of bards of the Opposition side of the house had left, under the impression that proxies would not be called for. The custom had hitherto been for the Government to give notice of their intention to callfor proxies if they had really such an intention. Yes terday, however, it appeared, probably by accident, that this custom was departed from. He thought it would tend greatly to the convenience of all 'parties in that house if due notice were given that proxies would be called for. 1241 5 64 i i 98 98i 99t 9 8i 701, 69i The Earl of BESSBOROUGH said he believed it never had been the custom for the Government to give notice. It so happened that he had been entrusted with a large number of proxies, and when that division took place as he passed along the gangway he called as loud as he could " Proxies." The Earl of DERBYsaid the fact was, that the occasions of calling proxies were exceedingly rare. He thought that it would be most expedient as well as desirable when proxies were intended to be called for, that notice of such intention should be given. Earl GRANVILLE thought that the suggestion made by the two noble lords opposite was deserving of much consideration. At the same time he mu-4 observe that when the noble lord alluded to the rare occasions on which proxies were called that he could hardly imagine a circumstance more natural for the Government than, upon a question of such importance as that of last night, and• upon the result of which the existence of the Government depended, that they should endeavour to show to the country and the world the very large majority of peers that were determined to support their policy. The Earl of DERBY hoped that the noble earl would now give notice whether he intended to call for proxies on Monday next. (Laughter.) Earl GRANVILLE said he would divide the house on Monday. _ _ Earl GREY—Then, in that case, I may reckon that the noble earl's vote will be i❑ favour of my motion. The Earl of DERBY was not disposed to give to the noble lord any pledge upon the subject. After a few words from Lord REDESDALE the subject dropped. INTESTACY (SCOTLAND) BILL. On the motion of Lord CAMPBELL, this bill was read a second time. UNION OF CONTIGUOUS BENEFICES IN CITIES AND TOWNS. The Bishop of LONDON, in moving the second read ing of this bill, said it was his intention, after the bill had gone through its stage., to move that the bill be referred to a select committee.

The Earl of A LBEMARLE rose to move that it was the opinion of that house that, in order to bring the war with Russia to a speedy termination, it was necessary to restrict the trade with that country by more effectual measures than any which had hitherto been adopted or announced by her Majesty's Government.

The following bills were read a third time and passed: —Aberdare Valley Railway ; Dundalk and Blackrock Railway • Dundalk and Enniskillen Railwa. The following bills were considered and ordered to be read a third time :—Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln shire Railway (Lincoln Branch, &c.) ; Nottingham and Loughborough Road (Re-committed). WOOLMER FOREST. Mr. WILSON moved to nominate the select com mittee on Woolmer Forest Bill :—Mr. Wilson, Mr. Portal, Viscount Duncan, Mr. Compton, Sir James Buller'East, and Sir William Jolliffe ; and five members n to be added by the committee of selection ; three to be the quorum.—Agreed to. PETITIONS. Petitions were presented by Capt. Scobeil, from places in Somersetshire, against the Maynooth grant, and in favour of the abolition of church rates ; by Mr. Wick ham, from the inhabitants of Shipley, Thornton, Wile den, Baildon, and Idle, Yorkshire, for the repeal of - the Beer Act of last session ; also from the members of va rious friendly societies in Bradford, of the number of 2,000, against the said act. A 'great number of peti tions-were presented by various hon. members, from dif ferent places in favour of the abolition of church rates, &c. ; but the indistinct tone in which the Speaker calls out the names of members who have got petitions to present, the buzz of conversation in the body of the house while the presentation of petitions is going on, and the careless manner in which members announce the name of the place from which petitions emanate, and their prayer, render it almost a hopeless task to try and catch what the petitions are about, who pre sents them, or whence they emanate. CLERKS IN PUBLIC OFFICES. Mr. M. MILNES gave notice that on this dareareek he should call attention to the state of the clerks in the' public offices. ORDNANCE SURVEY (SCOTLAND). Lord SEYMOUR moved for a copy of the Treasury minute authorising the Ordnance Survey upon the scale now in prOgress in Scotland. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said as soon as the report was agreed to he should take an op portunity of presenting an early copy of it to the house. STATUTE LAW COMMISSION. In reply to Mr. LOCKE KING, Mr. WILSON said when the vote would be taken for the Statute Law Commission it would be impossible to say ; but as soon as it could be done it should be laid upon the table. CHURCH OF ENGLAND (CANADA). Mr. GLADSTONE moved for copies of any Address from the Legislative Council and Legislative Assembly of Canada, during their present session, touching the legal position of the Bishops and other members of the Church of' England in that colony ; and of the votes of the respective houses on any such address if received.— Agreed to. MR. LAYARD'S RESOLUTIONS. Mr. LAYARD gave notice that, on going into corn mitee of supply on Thursday week, he should bring for ward his resolutions. RAMSGATE HARBOURS. Mr. MACKINNON rroved for a select committee to ascertain the condition, revenue, and-expenditure of the harbours of Ramsgate and the. Cinque Ports. Mr. BOUVERIE said that, with regard to the Cinque Ports, the hon. member had said nothing, and he (Mr. Bouverie) would follow his example, and confine his re marks to Rarnsgate alone. He could not assent to a select committee on this subject, because the subject of Ramsgate Barbour was exhausted, and nothing further could be gathered with respect to it. The papers he held in his hand referred to Ramsgate harbour, besides which he had with hini a report relating to the same matter. At the same time the question of Ramsgate harbour was an important one. (Hear, hear.) It was maintained by tolls on the shipping, but lately those tolls had been reduced. In 1851 the reductions amounted to something like 4,6001. per annum, and in 1852 to 5,0001., whilst the toll now levied was at the rate of 63 per cent, less than the rate to which the trustees were entitled. The shipping' was benefited by the pas sing toll upon shipping, and he therefore did not think that it would be desirable to take away from the harbour all means of maintenance. At present the harbour was not in an efficient condition ; but the question arose, how the harbour was to be maintained when it was placed upon a proper footing. He was himself favourable to a change of management. The control of the harbour was now in the bands of a body of trustees, men of eminence and character in the city of London, who, whilst devot ing some time to the harbour, could not give that attention to it which its importance deserved. The first step necessary to put the harbour in a proper state of efficiency would be the alteration of man agement--and he proposed that the direction should be taken from the trustees and vested in another authority under the control of the Board of Trade. Under these circumstances, and as all had b een ascerta i ned which could be collected on the subject, he trusted his hon. friend would not press for a committee. (Hear, hear.) Sir G. B. PECHELL did not think the Vice-Pre sident of the Board of 'Trade had afforded any strong reasons against the committee, and he should, therefore, give it his cordial support. After a few words from Mr. JAMES MACGREGOR, on the importance of Ramsgate being maintained as a harbour of refuge, Mr. CARDWELL said, that many motions had been FOREIGN. 7i - 7i 1 4 - 3 i- i p 2 lid 34. 35 6i 7 ' 24i —24 i 2i 3 ►'l 9 - 8 16 - 17 50 - 511 89 - 91 - 2 I - t - - IP i VP 11 - 2 2i - 3 21 -21 i 99 - 101 104 - 106 106 -. iOB 100 102 21i - 22, 106 - 108 . dip 3 3ip 7 - 3 51 - 64 ila = ii 12/ -- 131 - A 1 24i- 25 p, 45 47 39 41 pin 22t d 2 iP 8 —Bi - 2p ••• - pm 3i 4 - 6 fi - iiii Ant - we) p .iißott :rdam Belgian Eastn.

He had himself personally gone to Ramsgate, and. prepared a bill for abolishing passing tolls. This was in 1853, . but it was not intro duced because there was a large searzhing, comprehen sive inquiry then in progress into the matter. Now was the time, however, for legislation, and he should join with his right hon. friend in opposing this unnecessary inquiry. Mr. G. HUDSON opposed the committee, after which Mr. MACKINNON withdrew his motion. THE HARDWARE TRADE. Mr. HADFIELD moved for a committee of the whole house, to consider the laws for the securing the property of manufacturers of iron, steel, cutlery, edge tools, hardware, gold, silver and silver plated, Britannia metal, German silver, copper and brass articles, and other metals, mother of pearl, shell, tortoise shell, bone, horn, ivory, leather, and wood, and also for securing the wages of the workmen engaged in such manufactures,; and asked for leave to bring in a bill to extend the 6th and 7th Vic., c. 40, to the hardware trades of Wolver hampton, Birmingham, and Sheffield. Mr. BOUVERIE said the provisions of the act al luded to by the hon. member had reference only to the hosiery and linen trade. He saw no prima facie grounds for objecting to its introduction; wid leave was accordingly given, and the bill read a first time. COMPENSATION TO THE PATENTEES OF SCREW PROPELLERS. Captain SCOBELL moved for a select committee to inquire into the circumstances under which the sum of 20,0001., voted by the House of Commons as a reward or compensation to the patentees of the screw propeller, as used in her Majesty's ships and vessels, has been applied, and as to what persons have preferred claims, either to the Admiralty, or other public depart ments, to share in the public grant in respect to their patent rights, and to report thereon, This question was mooted at the end of last session in the other house by Lord Lyndhurst, which showed it was a grievance requiring investigation. The question was, who had the 20,0001. granted by the Admiralty, and why was it so paid ? He found that the five who shared the money lad quarrelled. They were in a questionable posi tion when they obtained it, , and it had come before the highest judicial authorities, who have decided the screws used in the Navy were not those for which the money was granted. The question then came to be considered who had got the money ; that was a question well worth considering, because parliament had granted it. Of that there was no doubt. (Hear, hear.) Now the party who had the money was Mr. Henry Currie, and he would show it from his letter to the Admiralty. It must be remembered that the vote was for the screw used in the navy, but Mr. Currie had put all the five screws together. (LEFT SPEAKING.) THE LONDON GAZETTE (THIS EVENING.)
