The Lords' amendments to the following bills were conaidered and agreed to : —East India Railway Com pany, Ely Tide' Harbour and Railway, London and North-Western Rtilway, Londonderry and Enniskillen Railway, Mid Kent Direct Railway (Bromley to St. Mary's Cray), and Oxford, Worcester, and Wolver hampton Railway (Additional Capital, &c). INCOME AND LAND TAXES BILL. On the motion for the third reading of this bill, Sir H. WILLOUGHBY and Mr. SrooNER put questions to the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER with reference to the operation of the 24 clause. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that, by the operation of the second clause, col lectoi s in receipt of large incomes would be affected considerably, as for instance the income of the collector for the London district, which at present amounted to between 6,0001. and 7,0001. per annum, would be reduced to aboot one-halt, out of which lie would have certain expeniei to pay. He would still be in receipt of a considerable salary, though not an exces sive one. It was not intended by the clause to in crease the salaries of any person now paid 1001. or 150 f. per annum. The provision referred to had been introduced to prevent the operation of the new pound age producing a larger amount of salary than was deemed sufficient for the services rendered. Salaries of 5001. per annum would not be affected by the bill. With re gard to the question of the hon. member for Warwick. shire, as to what would happen when the reduction of the income-tax took place, it was one that reached so far into the future that he (the Chancellor of the Exche quer) could hardly at that time answer the question. It would be easy hereafter to meet the contingency re ferred to. Mr. MACKINNON said that the land tax produced 3,400,000/. a-year. He thought some scheme might be devised by which the land-tax might be redeemed at 25 years' purchase, and the capital realised, amounting to 24,000,0001., go towards the reduction of the national debt. The adoption of such a scheme would relieve the general tax-payer, and he suggested that early next session a committee should be appointed to consider this subject and report thereon. . The bill was then read a third time and passed. The following bills, after a short discussion and ver bal amendments, were read a third time and passed : Stamp Duties ; Racehorse Duty ; Coast Guard Service ; Corrupt Practices Prevention ; General Board of Health Continuance ; Militia Pay ; Cursitor Baron of the Ex chequer; Lunatic Asylums Act Amendment; and the Marriage Law (Scotland) Amending.

Mr. HADFlEl:ls;;;Mlive;iCifto the large amoutn of public business on the paper at this period of the session, and asked the noble lord at the head of the Go vernment whether he could state which bills would be proceeded with, and which abandoned. There were four bills with regard to which he was particularly anxious to that information, and they were the Vice-President of Committee of Council on Education Bill, the Divorce and Matrimonial Causes Bill,and the Lords' Amendments to the Cambridge University Bill. Lord PALMERSTON said in former sessions there had usually been one general slaughtering of bills, but this session they had preferred rather to do execution upon them one by one. (A laugh.) That course he should propose to continue, and the intentions of the Govern ment would be stated upon each bill as each came on. With regard to the first of the four bills mentioned by the hon. gentleman, it was intended certainly to proceed with the first, and the last, and the Attorney-General would on an early day, perhaps to-morrow, state What he pro posed to do with the second. As for the Divorce Bill, it was a measure of great importance, involv ing questions of great magnitude, in which considerable difference of opinion must necessarily exist, and at this late period of the session he did not think it would be desirable to press the house to come to any decision upon it. It was the intention of the Government, however, to revive the measure in that house at the very beginning of the next session, but it would not contain the 24th clause of the present bill, which prohibited the future marriages of persons who had been divorced for adul tery. Such a provisions it was thought, would be quite in opposition to public morals, or rather it would have a direct tendency to encourage and promote immorality. Mr. ROEBUCK—AIIow me to ask what course the Government intend to take with reference to the Civil Service Superannuation Bill ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER—To pro ceed with it. I shall move the order when it comes on. CORRUPT PRACTICES PREVENTION BELL. On the motion for going into committee on this bill, Mr. H. BERKELEY rose to moveas an amendment that it be committed that day three months, as the bill proposed to continue a law that was not only useless in its operation, but intended from the very first to dupe and delude John Bull. (A. laugh.) He should endeavour to avoid the question of the ballot, which had been pooh phooed by the noble lord opposite. (Hear.) When it was found that something must be done, the usual safety valve was opened—a select committee. They sent down the bill, which waa afterwards cut and mutilated and shorn of all its best parts. It was sent thus emasculated to the House of Lords, who, glad of the pretence of doing something which looked like reform, passed a Measure that was conservative of corruption. In this form the bill received the royal assent. The press pronounced it to be a pompous profession, meant to be inoperative. The bill, as tested throughout the country, had proved to be inoperative ; and no one could deny that it was a pompous profession, as it undertook to suppress bribery and undue iniuence at elections. The house ought not to stultify itself by continuing such an enactment. In those boroughs where elections had taken place since it passed, the press was almost unanimous in stating that I it had been inoperative. Such being the case, the bill ought to have been referred to a committee, and not re introduced in the same form. At Deptford it was stated that bribery was still suspected to a very great degree. At Barnstaple, it was admitted that "the screw" had been used. At Frome, many electors had been told they might vote for whom they pleased, at the risk of losing their employment. At Maldon and Norwich it was stated that no difference had taken place in the mode of election. At Portsmouth, the Government screw had been used, and it was said to make no difference which party W 9.4 in power. At Sunderland and Wigan, they spoke of the screw being used, and that there were the out ward signs of bribery. At Batb, sixteen distinct cases of intimida tion had been reported. At Wells--Wells !—(laughter) —they had spoken of bribery, treating, and the screw ; and it was said that the act was nothing more than waste paper. At Boston, despite all Mr. Ingram might say in faxotft of that "tight little borough," a frightful state of venality was said to prevail. The case was the Barra) at Rochester and other places. Such was the ef fect of an act they were now called upon to renew. In stead of doing this the Government ought to have lis tened is the petitions of the electors and have referred the bill to a committee. All they could do now was eithe r to pass a bad bill, or leave the country without any pro vision against bribery. Wherever there was a good clause in the bill, it bad been neutralised by some other, or by the decisions of the courts. It had been held that an elector might have his expenses paid, if there was no proof of corrupt intent, either on his part or that of the person paying. But how was it possible to prove a corrupt intent ? (Hear, hear.) Candidates were required to return to the election auditors the names of their ac knowledged agents, whose expenditure must be made public. The only effect of this was to destroy the old law of agency. The acknowledged agent was known ; but what of the unacknewledge , i agents ? Such a pro vision only opened the door more wide for bri , ery. Any stranger might descend from the Reform or the Carlton Club, upon any borougb, or from the Moon, as at Aylesbury and Carlisle—(laughter)—and might bribe in all direction., so long as they were not acknowledged ry appointed agents. Again, the bill contained no provi sion against granting loans to electors—a most fertile source of corruption. A more serious part of the question was intimidation ; it was the great disease of our electo ral system; it pervaded every class of society, and made the electors mere serfs. The landlord controlled the tenant—the customer the tradesman—the manufacturer the operative; and so on all through society. The sth clause of the bill, even if it could be carried into effect, was unconstitutional. Could the house dictate to a land lord what tenant he should accept, or to a customer what tradesman he should employ? The very attempt was an absurdity. On this subject Mr. Macaulay had declared his conviction that intimidation could not be reached by penal laws, and the only way of putting it down was by the ballot. The late Sir R. Peel had also expressed the same opinion as to the inutility of penal laws. Land lords did not tell tenants that they were ejected on ac count of their votes. The Whig Controller of the Royal household who, a few years ago, dismissed a number of the Royal tradesmen because they had voted against a Whig Minister, did not tell them why they were dis missed. Wbat, then, was the use of 501. penalty against intimidation ? The payment for chairing, flags, and bands of music was declared illegal ; but no penalty was attached. Any charge against a member must be made within 14 days ; but the accounts were not required to be sent into the auditor for 3 months. The provision for appointing agents was a most cunning device for shielding the candidate from responsibility. He called on the house to pause before again committing themselves to such a measure. He had torn the bill to rags, and it would puzzle any hog. gentleman to put it together again. It was neither more nor less than a snare and delusion to the people, a mockery on legislation, and an insult to common sense. It did nothing but render illegal banners, bands, and cockades ; but that object was provided for by another bill, which had been rejected by the house. It had been opposed by Sir James Graham, then First Lord of the Admiralty, who could not march to an election unless " Rule Britannia " was played before him. (Laughter.) Yet those very provisions had been passed in the present act, as a kind of saving clauses. Mr. CRAUFURD seconded the motion. He had voted for the bill when it contained the clause which required a declaration from the member that he had not been guilty of bribery. But when that clause was thrown out, he knew that its efficacy was destroyed. The last election for the county of Ayr under this bill, although the election was confined to one day, cost more money than when the election lasted two days. He complained that no member could reach that house without paying toll to the election auditor. lie put it to the Govern ment and the house whether, after the authentic con demnation of the act by the decision of the Court of Ex chequer Chamber, it was desirable to pass the ineasura without meeting the objections which were patent to all. Mr. INGRAM said he was surprised that the mem ber for Bristol opposed the continuance of the act, and also that he brought forward accusations against the borough which he (Mr. Ingram) represented which were wholly unsupported. His election was a proof to him that the act had been of groat use as compared with elections which took place before it passed. Before the act passed a great deal of money had been spent in treat ing, and also under the disguise of music and flags ; but on his honour he did not spend a single shilling in treat ing or in music at the last election. (Hear.) He hoped the house would support the bill, which he was certain was a great benefit, and he trusted the observations of the bon gentleman would not induce the house to throw out the bill, Mr. TITE agreed in much that had been said by the hon. member for Bristol, and his experience led him to • ......___ ____ , _ _ Naples •• •• ....

On the motion of Mr. BROTHERTON, return of the number of divisions of the House of Commons in the present session, stating the subject of the div'tiou, and the number of members iu the majority and minority, tellers included; also the aggregate number in the house on each division, distinguishing the divisions on public business from private, and also the number of divisions before and after midnight (in continuation of Parliamen tary paper No. 492 of session 1854-5).

On the motion of Mr. BROTHERTON, alphabetical list of the public bills which have been introduced into the House of Commons during the present session, stat ing by whom introduced, or which have been brought from the House of Lords ; the dates of their several stages in this house, and distinguishing those which have - EitYree...-become law (in continuation of Parliamentary paper No. 487 of session 1854.5). GENERALS BEATSON AND VIVIAN. Mr. ROEBUCK said by some mistake a motion of his had been put on the paper for to-night instead of for Tuesday next. It was as follows : That the Under Secre tary for War having admitted that, upon anonymous in formation, a secret inquiry had been ordered into the conduct of a general officer, this house feels itself bound to express its reprobation of such a proceeding.

The Divorce and Matrimonial Clauses Bill was with drawn for the present session. MARRIAGE LAW (SCOTLAND) BILL. The Lords' amendments to this bill were considered and agreed to. BANKRUPTCY (SCOTLAND) BILL. The Lords' amendments to this bill were also consi dered and agreed to. COASTGUARD SERVICE BILL. The house went into committee on this bill. On clause 4 being proposed, Sir G. PECHELL said that he cordially approval of the principle of the bill, but that a better system of pro motion and higher rates of remuneration should be ap plied to the officers of the Coast-Guard service. Sir C. WOOD stated the bill before the committee had been carefully considered by the Board of Admiralty, and it was thought that sufficient inducements were held out by iti provisions to secure the services of a younger ar more efficient class cf men in the Coast Guard. In reply to Sir G. PECHELL, Sir C. WOOD said the Coast Guard would be enterer on the books of the navy in future as seamen. Some few of the old Coast Guard were not so entered, and in their cases no ,alteration would be made. Mr. HENLEY complained that the compulsory powers to take land were too extensive. It might lead to much inconvenience to place an arbitrary power in the hands of the Admiralty to take five acres of land at a time. There never would be any difficulty in getting land for barracks and other purposes if it could be shown that it was really wanted. After a few words from Lord H. VANE and Sir W. HE ITIICOTH, Sir C. WOOD agreed to reduce the limit to three acres. Tee other clauses were . , then agreed to. THE MERCANTILE LAW AMENDMENT BILL. Clause 1 was struck out. Upon clause 2, Mr. HENLEY moved that this clause be struck out. Mr. LOWE said the clause was inserted upon the recommendation of the Mercantile Law Commissioners contained in their report. Mr. ROEBUCK said that the clause was intended to alter the long•established law with respect to the rights of persons buying goods in market overt, and he had heard no sufficient reason for the alteration. Mr. MALINS also objected to the clause. Mr. LO ti' E felt that he could not successfully sup port the clause, and it was withdrawn. Upon clause 3, Mr. MULLINGS proposed that this clause be struck out. Atter a few words from Mr. HADFIELD it was agreed to. Clause 4 was agreed to. Upon clause 5, Mr. MALINS expressed his satisfaction with this clause, by which it was proposed to alter that portion of the Statute of Frauds which declared all guarantees void where no consideration was mentioned Mr. VANCE said, as a el nnmercial man, he hoped the old law would be allowed to stand as it was. It was con sidered a great protection to the public. Mr. HADFIELD supported the clause, which was then agreed to, Upon clause 6, Mr. MULLINGS objected to the clause as making a very serious change in the law of partnership, and would make a retired partner always liable for the debts of a firm, although the remaining partners might become bankrupt. A discussion followed, in which Mr. Malins, Mr. 'Vance, and Mr. Mullis opposed the clause ; while Mr. Lowe explained away what he considered the objection, Mr Mullings persisting in his opposition. The committee divided, when there appeared— For the clause 95 Against it l3 Majority —B2 The clause was then agreed to. Clause 7 was agreed to after some discussion. Clause 8 was withdrawn. Clause 9, with some amendments, was agreed to. The remaining clauses were agreed to, and the house resumed. CURSITOR BARON OF THE EXCHEQUER BILL. subject. Mr. ROEBUCK—Had you not better defer it until I have made the motion ? Mr. PEEL—No ; it is pressing. As regards the con duct of General Vivian — Mr. RbEI3UCK—I rise to order. How can I an swer the statement of the hon. gentleman when there is no motion before the house ? The SPEAKER —The hon. genleman can only make his explanation under the indulgence of the house. Mr. PEEL—The point, sir, is simply this. Certain charges have been made against Gen. Bentsen in connec tion with transferring the command of the Turkish Con. tingent, and they came to the knowledge of the War office through Mr. HAMILTON here interposed, and said the hon. member was clearly out of order. Mr. LABOUCHERE —My hon. friend simply intends to offer a personal explanation. Colonel FRENCH—I rise to order, sir. This discus sion is quite irregular, and ought not to bo continued. Mr. PEEL—I only wish to say— Mr. ROEBUCK—Order, order. Sir, I insist the hon. member is quite out of order. (Hear.) The SPEAKER ruled that the hon. member was out of order, and the matter dropped. DECIMAL COINAGE. Mr. HAMILTON asked the C•ancellor of the Exche quer when it was likely the report of the commissioners on the decimal coinage question would be presented The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said the commissioners had taken various steps for the purpose of obtaining information on the subject referred to them, but they would not be in a position to make a report in sufficient time to admit of its being laid on the table in the course of the present session. CIV4, SERVICE ESTIMATES. Mr. HAMILTON wished also to ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, in order to extend the principle of competitive examination for civil offices, what means it was intended to take to make known to the public the The following are the principal features in the report of the directors of this company, to be submitted to the meeting of the proprietors, to be held at the Bridge-house Hotel, Southwark, on Thursday next : The accounts for the half-year ending June 30, 1850, arc subjoined, and show the following results : CAPITAL ACCOUNT.

Observe—opposite tho York llotAL £7,751,015 The total capital outlay during the half-year has been 7,8821. 103. 4d., which has been expended in completing the Thames Junction Diversion and other works referred to in previous reports, and in increasing the platform accommodation at London-bridge. In consequence of the high rate of interest which has prevailed until a very recent period, the company's gua ranteed five per cent. stock has not reached such a price as to enable the directors to issue the remaining portion with due advantage: looking, however, to the favourable change in the money market, the directors believe that it will soon attain such a value as to enable them to dis pose of the unissued balance. In the meantime they have the satisfaction of reporting that, during the recent monetary pressure, no part of this company's mortgage debt has been renewed or replaced at the rate of interest exceeding- 41 per cent. Indeed, the present average rate of interest on the whole debt is not more than 41. 2i. per cent. By the company's acts of Parliament, passed in 1853 and 1854, powers were obtained to convert the whole or any portion of the mortgage debt of the company either into ordinary stock or into a debenture stock, such last-mentioned stock bearing a fixed and perpetual dividend not exceeding 4 per cent. per annum, having priority of payment over all other dividends on any other stock or shares of the company. Resolution , will be submitted to the meeting authorising the exercise of these powers, and the directors recommend the pro prietors to leave in the hands of the board the option of converting the mortgage debt either into ordinary stock, or into a debenture stock, bearing a rate of interest not exceeding 4 per cent. per annum, as may from time to time appear preferable. Should the directors, acting under such authority, convert any portion of the debt into ordinary stock, such stock will have to ho offered to the proprietors in proportion to their holdings. As compared with the corresponding hall-year of 1855 there has been an increase of 4,9261. in the ordinary ex penses, and of 10,5561. in renewals. The former is caused almost entirely by the extension of the mileage worked. The excess under the head of renewals arises from extra expenditure in repairs of the permanent w ay, no less than 36,681 sleepers having been replaced (luring the past half-year. The proprietors will ob ,, erve that the balance of 4,7831. 2s. sd. which remained at the credit of the reserve fund has been applied towards meeting the expense incurred during the last half-year in relaying and improving the permanent way ; and that a further sum of 3,0191. 12s. Bd. has been placed to the debit of revenue. It will be very satisfactory to the proprietors to learn that, velth the exception of 16 miles, the entire main line (including the four lines between the Bricklayers' Arms Junction and Croydon) has now been relaid and fish-jointed. The revenue account for the past ha f-year has been debited with its full proportion of expenditure on this account, and the residue, together with the cost of improving the remaining 16 miles, will be spread over the future revenue of the ceinpany. When this has been completed, the di rectors do not anticipate any further expenditure under this head for some time to come. The directors have the satisfaction of reporting that the permanent way, buildings, and rolling stock are in a much better condition than at any previous period. During the present session of Parliament bills have been introduced by the Wimbledon and Croydon, and by the West end of London and Crystal Palace Rail- BIRTHS. OF A sox.

As Tuesday was the last day on which bills could be sent up to the Lords, he hoped the house wou ld let him proceed with another stage of the bill that night. Mr. S. WORTLEY said the only duty the Cursitor Baron had to perform was to listen to a ridiculous speech from the Recorder of London once a year on the intro duction of the sheriffs.
