He ha! thought .t right, a few weeks ago, to call the attention of Lerd Pan oure to certain remarks then current re3peetieg an alleged intention on the part of the Government to make a very considerable addition to the military forces maintained iu our North American colonies, and to make that addi tion with certain unusual accempenimente of parade aed ostentation. Smne of the reports, very extensively cir culated by the press, went the length of stating that portions of her Majesty's navy, some of those magnii cent vessels which they had had the opportunity of exe mining a short time ago, were to be employed to convey 10,000 men from the Crimea to Quebec or Halifax. Having had some experience of the state of fi eling iii America, he bad thought that if rumours of that kind were transported across the Atlantic, without a single word of denial, or qualification, or explanation, they might pro duce a very uneasy feeling both in the British provinces and in the U sited States; andthat they might perhaps have the effect of inducing the Congress of the United States,which sometimes acted rather upon impulse in such matters, to adopt, as it had done in a corresponding case, coun tervailing measures of protection or menace, which might still further complicate the relations existing between the two countries. Since then, the reports circulated by the press of this country had been published by the American papers in a connected form ; and when brought together in that shape, they presented such a formidable appearance as to justify the course he had taken. It was of the very greatest importance in our discussion with America constantly to bear in mind the fact, that these two nations possessed, in the highest perfection, the advantages, such as they were, of a free press, that it eras therefore impossible to prevent the measures of Government being criticised, and the motives of Government, real or supposed, generous or illiberal, from being canvassed and scrutinised. And, moreover, as the presses of the two countries were not only free, and evastly influential within their own respective spheres, but also (he said it to their honour) eminently patriotic --they were apt, in these international discus sions, like the knights in the legend, to look perhaps too exclusively at the colours on their own side of the shield. This imposed upon men who were earnestly de sirous to preserve peace between the two countries, and to promote the interests of both or either (and he be lieved it would be very difficult to promote the real in terests of one without promoting those of both, so inti mately connected together, and dependent upon each either as they were) —it imposed upon public men duties connected with the removal of causes of possible misun derstanding., and with the suzgestion of means o r Con. ciliation, which they ought not to shrink from discharg ing, although occasionally the attempt to discharge those duties might subject them to misrepresentation and re proach. It was with these feelings and views, and nut with any intention of embarrassing the (Government, that he had ventured to ask Lord Clarendon . whethet a letter which appeared in' the American journals, purporting to be a copy of one written by the Under- Secretary of State in this country, in reply to an ap plication for a.. supply of arms from Costa Rica, was or was not a genuine document. He knew that the arms referred to had been used in the war raging between the Nicaraguans and the Costa Rican s , in which citizens of the United States were en ;aged ; he knew that that report and that letter, coupled together, hal produced great excitement in the United States ; and he thought it desirable that the noble lord should have an opportio pity otgiving a trio version of the affair.

The last despatch that was written by my self, and that contains a resume of the whole matter, can hardly have reached the United States, and therefore I am anxious not to say more at present with reference to the recruiting question. As fir, however, as I have been able to ascertain what is the impression which exists on this subject, it is that we have offered to comply with all the demands of the United States, save only th a t we w ill no t reca ll Mr. Crampten and the consuls, because we don't think that they have me rited that censure and that punishment. (Cheers.) W e should have had no hesitation in so dealing with any agent who haul so forgotten his duty and disregarded his instructions as to have violated the laws of the United States ; but being convinced that our agents have not done so, no government can expect us to take such a course. (Cheers.) With respect to Central America, your lordships know the terms of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty. I do not think that language can be more clew than the language of that treaty was. It stipulated that there should be no colonisation, no acquisition of terri tory, no fortifications or strengthening of fortified places that already existed. I think there can be no other in terpretation than that it was prospective, and that it was intended for a specific object, which was the construction and maintenance of a canal without any encroachments on the part of the United States. But it was never understood that we were to give up or evacuate Hondu ras and the other places which were in our possession at the time the treaty was made. It would have been impos mr. that it s s i t b ri le cti3 fo up r der a ihoday m ni n provi so, as t c o a a ttach n cam e t he great ability of Sir He nr y B u l wer to have tak en u p on hi mse lf to gi ve up any B r i tish terri tory or rights. So far from having don e so , h e ma d e a was overt o a c t H k o n to o hn w ids l uc e ro d a g us e n. d t r yl b v, y lh M ehne r , a . rh C do wf a o y er, vt the first time that an entirely new interpretation had been placed upon this treaty, and that it was no longer to be looked on as a prospective arrangement, but an arrange ment for evacuating British territory. I heard for the first time that it was a ground of complaint against us that we had not fulfilled the engagements of that treaty. I think I told Mr. Buchanan that it was the first time that I had heard of that interpretation ; and he said that in this country there was no doubt whatever as to his interpretation of the treaty. I replied that it appeared to me the fairest plan would be, to call in some other third power which would impartially judge and deter mine the question between us. I said that we were perfectly ready to enter intro any engegement that would be satisfactory to the United States and to the publit at home. It was, therefore, a matter of indiffer- amongst some classes of the inhabitants of the United States—rather amongst foreigners than natives—to view our proceedings with jealousy and to put upon our ac tions a construction which they would not bear. But it was his firm conviction that the better classes in the United States were animated by the most kindly feelin g : towards this country, were most desirous that friendly relations should be maintained, and conscious that an 3 interruption of them would entail the most serious cala mities, without being accompanied by any solid compen satory advantages. He believed that there never was a time, since the declaration of independence, when the substantial interests of the two countries were so mani fold and powerful, and the differences so puerile. (Hear.) He really believed that the people of this country did not take sufficient interest in any of the questions pend ing between this country and the United States to care whether they were settled one way or the other. But he much deplored the continuance of these angry discus sions between the governments of the two countries, be cause he was confident that if the people of this country were once brought to believe that a collision between this country and the United States was sooner or later inevitable, and if the congress of the United States con tinued its naval and military preparations in order to be prepared against such a contingency—it would be im possible to maintain the peace much longer between the two countries. He deprecated the continuance of these angry discussions for another reason. He could not help thinking, that, upon the two questions now pending be. tween the two governments, we had been led, by our controversial zeal, to assume positions which were dia metrically opposed to those dictated by our real interest. It was our real interest, for example, that the neutrality laws in the United States should have the widest pos sible scope and application—(hear, hear, hear)—that the disposition which existed on the part of some of the inhabitants of that country to carry on war on their own account should be kept in check, and that the United States Government should recognise the obligation which it owed in that respect to foreign powers. But in our controversy on the enlistment question, we had been led to contend for the narrowest possible construction of that law for the right of natives, or at least residents of the Ilfnited States, to engage in war with a Government with which the United States was at peace ; and. it was not a seemly, a courteous, or a becoming thing that diplomatic agents representing a friendly power should be themselves, di rectly or indirectly, parties to such a proceeding. Tnis view of the case was most ably put in the last despatch of Lord Clarendon ; and the noble earl must have felt that a British minister was placed in a very false position when he was obliged to employ all his ingenuity to weaken and destroy the force of this valuable pledge given spontaneously by the Government of the United States. Then, with reference to Central America, no doubt it was the real interest of this country that the independence of the Central American states should be preserved, that no one great power should obtain an overweening influence in that territory, which was likely to become the high way for the commerce of the world. It was with this view and intention that the Clayton-Bulwer treaty was agreed to, and that the valuable admission was obtained from Mr. Abbott Lawrence on the 8:11 Nov., 1849, that ' the United States had no ulterior purpose in view, that they frankly diselaimed all intention of obtaining terri tory, and that they would be willing to agree neither to annex, colonise, settle, nor occupy that country. But, in our anxiety to maintain some really worthless rights in Central America, we had been led ever since that treaty had been signed to put the most lax construction upon it, and to push to the uttermost the extent to which the parties to it might exercise protection in Centre America. He feared that the tone which we had em ployed in these arguments would be felt with pressing effect, in the yet more serious discussions which we might have with the United States. In the mean 1 time all the friends of both countries must agree on one point, that it was most desirable that these con troversies should be brought to an end. (Hear.) A very eminent person in America had said to him that he was confident, that if Lord Clarendon and Mr. Marcy were half-an-hour together in the same room, they would settle these questions to the satisfac tion of both countries. (Hear.) And he earnestly hoped, now that the noble earl had been relieved from some of the overpowering labours that had pressed upon him, be would be able to turn his great-ability an I power of conciliation to these important subjects, and by put ting an end to th e di ssens i ons between England and America, add another to the many claims he had esta blished ou the gratitude of his country. It had been stated by Lord Panmure that the reports to which he had called attention were exaggerated—that the addi tions about to be made to our military forces in our North American provinces were by na means so great as had been represented, and, above all, that they were not intended for aggressive purposes in America. The noble lord's declaration upon this most important point was of a very specific character, and it must have given satisfaction to all those parties whose confidence in the Government was of that somewhat qualified nature that should lead them to desire an assurance of that kind. He was not one of that number; he had never supposed it possible that the Government would be guilty of the imprudence of c on templating or undertakingaggressive movements towards America. But he confessed, judging from past experi ence, and also a little influenced by the reports to which he had alluded, he did feel at the time he put the ques tion some little anxiety on another point, which was not wholly removed by the answer of the noble lord. 11 - , thought it wasjust possible that the Government, conscious 1 that they had at their disposal one of the most powerful r fleets and the best appointed armies which England ever possessed, might conceive the notion that something in the nature of a demonstration of force, something that might look like a display of vigour, might be serviceable to them in conducting the controversy. He was happy to say that a statement made by Lord Palmerston, in reply to an inquiry in the other house, had gone far to remove the apprehension which, in common with others, he had felt upon that point. That statement, and the inquiry which had led to it, went very far to justify the observations which he had made, and to illustrate the advantage which a Government enjoyed from the opportunities of explanation and self-vindication —perhaps he might say, reflection and consideration— which it enjoyed when Parliament was sitting. The illus tration in the present case was more complete and in structive, because it contrasts in a very remarkahle manner with what occurred in a case almost exactly similar, not many months ago. In November last an addition was made, not to the military force in the North American Provinces, but to the naval force sta tioned in the West India seas. At that time Parliament was not sitting ; no member of either house could rise in his place and ask the Goveinment to explain the motives of their proceeding, or undertake the still more thenk lese office of warning them against its too probable con sequences. The result was the public, both in England and America, were constrained to put upon that proceed ing the construction put upon it by the press of this country, more especially by that portion of the press which was supposed, rightly or wrongly, to enjoy to a certain extent the confidence of the Government. Their lordships could hardly have forgotten what tint con struction was, or the tone in which the United States were reminded that, as their community compri ed many lawless individuals whom their executive was either nes willing or unable to restrain, it became necessary for the executive of this country to take measures to supply that omission on the part of the government of the United States. And the pretext for this language of warning was furnished by the idle ravings and wild pro jects, not of native born Americans, but of apostates from their allegiance to the Queen of England, who bad sought American protection, and who, if they deserved the censure heaped upon them, were a scandal and a re proach to any country. He did not suppose that the in tentions of the Government were correctly stated. On the contrary, he felt cenfident, and he should be glad to be informed that his c infidence was not misplaced, that if the Government bad had the opportunity of explana tion, they would have been fully able to explain away wEat was apparently offensive in the proceeding. lie admitted that the proceeding might have been attended with some degree of temporary success ; but if the Go vernment had been careful in watching the signs of the times—if they had bestowed on the proceedings of Con gress the attention they deserved, they must have learnt by this time to appreciate the cost at which their suc cess had been achieved. They must know that they had put arms into the hands of a party in the United States, small in numbers, contemptible in influence and charac ter, but noisy and active, who were stirring up as agita tion against what they termed tho overbearing conduce, of Great Britain; and, unhappily for America as well as for England—unhappily for the interests of the future— there was a class of persons in the United States who found, or imagined they would find, their account in the maintenance of expensive military and naval establish ments. (Hear.) Those who achieved these' triumphs were, unconsciuesly no doubt, but not the less surely, conspiring to call into existence the material forces of that new world which might yet be destined to realise the prediction of a celebrated statesman of this country, who said that it was little apprehended by its author. This raised a question of domestic policy of great impor tance, on which the returns be moved for might throw considerable light. The noble lord had stated that the forces removed to British North America were intended to replace the troops removed from there at the com mencement of the war. It might be inferred from this statement that the reductions which had taken place in late years had been the result of accidental or temporary recall ; but the returns would show that they had been the result of a policy deliberately adopted and consist ently carried out, and that they would have taken effect even if the war with Russia had not occurred. (Hear.)

What the t a n, efficiency might be best reconciled in its movement and questions an l i distribution, were no doubt very well deserving of consideration at a fitting time, but cl ues tions which he did not then propose to raise. Least of all was it his intention, in inviting the house to acced e to his motion, to say one single syllable which could indu ce our fellow-suFjects in the colonies to entertain any don ;t as to the deep interest which we took in their welfare, and as to the readiness of Parliament and the country to supp ort them with all the might of the empire against aggression or wrong. But it was very necessary at the present time, more especially in the present state of our rely tions with the United States, to call attention to the elements of strength which this aatiou possessed in the ~.~: once to lig what Power was called in to give any opinion upon the matter ; but that, having placed a certain in terpretation upon a.' treaty, we could not admit that because we were told that anuther interpretation had prevailed, we ought to adopt that new interpretation. My lords, into this que3tipn I do not now wish to go any further ; but when the subject comes to be considered in the United States, and when public opinion is brought to bear upon it, as it is upon every subject in America, I am sure that it will strike every one that our efforts have been honest and sincere.

Major REED gave notice that on the 24th of June he would move for a select committee to receive evidence from constituencies on the subject of open voting and limitation of the franchise. THE NATIONAL DEBT. Mr. P. URQUHART gave notice that he would, on an early day, move for a select committee to inquire into the possibility of paying off the national debt by termi nable annuities. ADJOURNMENT OF I'HE HOUSE. Lord PALMERSTONIimoved that the house, on its rising, adjourn till Friday. He need not state his reasons for making the motion--(laughter)--and he had no doubt the house would agree with it. (Hear, hear.) Mr. HADFIELD called upon the noble lord to ex plain to the house how he intended to act with refer ence to the public business. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said it was the intention of the Government that the House should go into Committee of Supply on Monday night, to proceed with the Civil Service Estimates, after that with those for the Army and Navy. It would be pre mature to enter into the disposal of other business. THE CASE OF MR. POLLOK. Sir M. STEWART called the attention of the house to the petition of Mr. Allan Pollok, a Scotch gentle. man, who has purchased two estates in Ireland under the Incurnbered Estates Court, re f err i ng to certain statements contained in a petition recently presented to the house, complaining of the harsh treat merit of that gentleman towards the tenantry on these estates, in evicting them without compensation. The hon. baronet, on the part of Mr. Pollok, denied the accusatiocs contained in the petition alluded to. That gentleman was obliged, in certain i ns t ances, to ta k e proceedings against some of the tenantry to obtain possession of the land, aid not for the pup tse of evicting them that he might depopulate the district. done for th e comfort of the Everythi ng was b e i n g tenants and the improvement of the property. Mr. M‘MAHON, who presented the petition com plaining of Mr. Pollolee cdriduct, defended the course he had punned in this matter. He stated nothing whan he presented the petition on his own know ledge—(cries of " Oh, al, and " Hear")—but retied entirely on the statement of the petitioners, who, for special reasons, selected him to present it. He was ready to be judged by the facts before the house, and called upon Mr. Pollok to deny his (Mr. ll‘Mahon's) statements point blank, and not by special pleading. After some further cnnversation, Mr. G. IL MOORE said tile true statement of the case, divested of special pleading on either side, was this—the old tenants had peen turned into farm labour. ere, were well paid, and c omfortable. As long an the system continued no doubt the labourers would be well off. But he believed Mr. Pollok was about to re-let his estates in large farms, and if the new tenauts did what every one who (anew the country would adviee them to The SPEAKER then put the queQtion, and there was a long pause, f Bowed by cries of " Divide," and counter cries of " Agree." At last P.L. KIRK rose and said that be would leave the (lc fenc.) of the Established Church to the members of that Church. He opposed the motion on behalf of the Irish Presbyterians. He insisted that the voluntary sy,tein hal proved a total failure, as was shown in the amount of ignorance and depravity which existed in England. Let Englishmen reform their own system, and then it would be time enough to reform the social system of Ireland. Mr. FRE WEN" moved for an aldress for copy of an act passed by the Lords and Commons, in Parliament assembled on the 9th day of February, in the year ]647, for the repairing of churche3 and payments of churn duties," being cap. 105 of the acts passed by the Pariia• ment generally termed the Long PArliamen% Captain L. VELV•TON moved a res , lution, " That it the opinion of tine house that it will be to the advan• tage of the service to employ generAl officers from the scientific corps on !;he staff of the army." An hon. MENIBEII here moved that the house be Counted. There being only 27 members present, the house ad• jourued at iia:f•past 1 o'clock. Mr. LINDSAY defended the voluntary system. Mr. NEWDEGATE sarcastically congratulated tho Roman Catholic members of Ireland on their having ob tained a member of another denomination to do their work. He hoped the house would mark with reproba tion this attempt to destroy the Protestant Church of Ireland at a time when Protestantism was making rapid progress in that country. He charged Mr. Miall with being a Jesuit in disguise. Mr. POLLARD•URQUHART contended that the old compromise with respect to the ecclesiastical estab lishment of Ireland could no longer be maintained. The Maynooth grant could not be maintained for above a year or two longer. The house must, therefore, consi der the propriety of keeping up a Church Establishment altogether, and he for one was prepared to abolish it, as it bad done no good to the best interests of Protes tantism. Mr. G. A. HAMILTON complained that the Go vernment had taken no part in this discussion. He ad mitted that Mr. Miall ha I made an able and, apart from its plan, a temperate speech ; but the plan he thought was extravagant in the extreme. He thought an estab lished church was the inculcator of truth; and in that point of view he thought that the endowment of all sects must be an inconsistency. He denied that the Church establishment in Ireland had proved a failure, and he did not believe that the house could be persuaded to a motion, the effect of which must be the destruction of the Established Church of Ireland. Mr. W. J. FOX remarked upon the fact that the Act of Union did not bind the house to preserve the tempo ralities of the Irish Church. POST-OFFICE NOTICES. Mr. STAFFORD denounced the silence of the Go vernment on this question, and taunted Mr. Horsman in particular with his silence. Assuming that he knew nothing about the matter, Mr. Stafford informed him than it was intended to dispose of the Church lands to the Irish landlords on most reasonable terms, and asked him to get up and toll the house what he thought of the question? Mr. HADFIELD taunted Mr. Stafford with the fact that neither he nor any of his leaders bad dareil to give any vote on the Maynooth question. He strongly sup ported the motlon. Mr. NAPIER would tell Mr. Miall that his scheme could not be carried out without a struggle on the part of the Protestants, which he feared to contemplate. li e warned the house, therefore, not to interfere with exist. ing settlements. Lord PALMERSTON jocularly expressed his grati fication to find that hon. gentlemen opposite wt re so araious to know what were the opinions of the Govern- ' ment, :being unable, as it appeared, to make up their own minds till they ha her Mtijesty's G-)verrnent to it - uide them. fie d( precated these reltweus dißcussions in this house, which only led to discord and feud. On this occasion he would confine himself to the political p trt, of the question. He reits-rated the argument of Mr. Miall, that the Act of Colon had nothing to do with this question.
