The in n manner access to the warehouse was by cutting Out a panel of the from p ar tition dividing the cutting-room the factory, the desks in the parce l -room were broken ta o . open, of the gold , as also the cashiers' desks and c ountin g ho use , the whole and silver being extr acted and the co ppers left.

In their hurry they overlooked an iron safe close b y , which co ntained a large amount (the whole of the previous day's t a ki ngs). It w o vid be impolitic at present to state on whom suspi cion rests, but one fact seems certain, that the y must h ave been well acquainted with the premises, as they had gone to the drawers where the tools are kept, and used the screw. driverand hammer belonging to the firm to effect their object.

The inquiry for money having diminished, the ciiscount market now presents a quiet appearance, and the banks and private firms having large sup plies at their command, are disposed to negotiate business at slightly reduced quotations. 1A large amount of gold, viz., £136,000, was sent into the Bank of England yesterday, while 40,000 sovereigns were withdrawn for exportation. The foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon ex hibited a further slight advance in most instances. Gold is now six-tenths per cent. dearer in London than in Paris, and also six-tenths higher than in Hamburg. The half-year's interest on Victoria Government Debentures will be paid on and after the Ist proximo. The Alhambra from the Peninsula brings X 1,350 in specie. Increased quietude prevailed in the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday, and prices tended down wards. The sales were only 5,000 bales. It appears that satisfactory arrangements were made yesterday for the Mires drafts, about which Much anxiety has recently been manifested. These securities having been provided for thus far, it is Presumed that the remainder still in circulation will be liquidated at maturity, and increased con idence consequently prevails among the Greek merchants, many of whom would have been com promised if the engagements which became due yesterday had not been faithfully discharged. The market for Public Securities closed yester day with a buoyant appearance, but a flatter tone has been exhibited to day, although the fluctuation has been limited. Consols for transfer, 91:1; for the account they have been 921 I, but the present quotation is 92} I. The dealings, however, have been very moderate. India Stock has improved to 2221 ; ditto 5 per Cent. to 100 i- ; and Bank Stock for account to 235; Exchequer Bills, lid. Per diem, remains at 6s. to 2s. dis. ; ditto 2d. per diem, at 2s. to 4s. prem. In the Foreign Market the dealings have been limited, but prices have tended downwards. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 701 to 711 ; ditto, 1858, 53 1 to 54; Mexican are steady, at 241 ; and Grenada Active at 16 ; Portuguese have improved to 461 ; Sardinian, to 821; Buenos Ayres are flat, at 89; and Spanish remain at 481 y. The transactions in the Railway Share Market have been moderately active, but mostly connected with the liquidation of the half-monthly account. Prices at the commencement exhibited increased buoyancy, owing to the preponderance of specula tive purchases. Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln improved 55.; Eastern Counties, Great Westerns, Midlands, and North Easterns,los.; and Caledonians, ISs.; speculative sales, however, have since prevailed, and the improvement hes been lost in several instances. London and South-Western have de clined ss. to 10s. In the Foreign and Colonial Markets the deal ings have been unimportant, and prices have not shown any material variation. Joint-Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares have been in very limited request. London and West minster declined 55., and Red Sea Telegraph ss. BRITISH FUNDS—CLOSING l'lttCHs 3 per Cent.

Judgment in this appeal was given this afternoon. The facts of this case it will be recollected were that on account of the practice of confession, at the Church of St. Barnabas, Pimlico, of which the plaintiff was curate, the Bishop of London felt it his duty to revoke his license as a clergyman of the Church of England. The Archishop of Canterbury confirmed the revocation of the Bishop, and the plaintiff now applied to the Court to grant him an ap peal from the decision of the Archbishop. Lord Cranworth having gone at some length into the cases which had prevailed with respect to curates in re!a ton to their ecclesiastical superiors, said the court was of opinion that Mr. Poole had no right of appeal from the decision of the Archbishop of Canterbury to the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council. The effect of tke decision is to affirm the right of the ;Bishop of London to revoke the license given to Mr. Poole. THE IVEATH4R. METEOROLOGICAL REPORTS. SHARE MARE NT.-(TILIS DAY.)

His Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury having appointed this morning to receive the address on the subject of " Essays and Reviews," a number of clergymen and others waited on his Grace at Lambeth Palace shortly after 11 o'clock. Among those present we observed Bishop Trower, Archdeacon Hone, Archdeacon Utterton, Dr. Irons, Dr. M'Caul, Rev. C. Kemble, Rev. J. M'Connell Hussey, the Hon. and Rev. H. Legg, Rev. T. 3ackson, Rev. Mesack Thomas, Rev. E. Bayley, Rev. E. Auril, and Rev. E. Bickerstcth. At half-past cloven his Grace received the deputation. Bishop TROWER stated he had been deputed to present the address of the clergy on the subject of the Essays and Reviews to his Grace. The address contained upwards of eight thousand signatures, beinc , those of the clergy of al shades of opinion. Out of that eight thousand gentlemen , no doubt some better fitted than himself for the perform. ante of the duty with which he had been entrusted might have been found, but not one of the members sympathised more than he did in the importance of the subject. The essays and reviews, if their opera tion was not destroyed, were calculated to do away with all authority in the things in which they had been in structed to believe. They were fully sensible of the im. portance and worth of the declaration which had been made by the bishops, and an expression of thankfulness to their lordships for the steps they had taken would have been included in their address had it not been proposed and signed by many clergymen before the declaration by their lordships appeared ; and whilst they were deeply sensible of the ,importance of the declaration to which he had re ferred, they had thought it desirable that the clergymen of the Church of England throughout the length and breadth of the land should also enter their protest against the doc trines promulgated by the Essayists. Dr. M'Caur. then read the following address : "To the Most Rev. Father in God, John Bird, Lord Archbishop of Canterbury, Primate of All England and Metropolitan :—We, the undersigned clergy of the United Church of England and Ireland, respectfully re quest your graot's attention to certain opinions contained in a volume of Essays and Reviews' recently published, the tendency of which, as it appears to us, is to annihilate the authority of the Bible as the in spired word of God, to reject all miracles (not excepting those of our Blessed Lord), as incapable of proof and re pugnant to reason, and, in one instance at least, to under mine faith in God as the Creator. These opinions have been promulgated, with one exception, by clergymen of our Church, holding positions of great trust, and possessing op portunities favourable in no ordinary deg ree for the diffu sion of error. We therefore earnestly entreat your grace to take counsel with the other members of the episcopate, and to devise such measures as may with God's blessing banish and drive away from our church all such erroneous and strange doctrines. The opinions against which we protest as being repugnant to the natural meaning of our formu laries, and inconsistent with the teaching of the Church of England, are expressed in the accompanying extracts from the Essays' to which we refer." Dr. IRONS said it had been stated that they had intro duced the book to notice by the steps which they had taken; but this was not so—for his own part he could say that it had gone through three editions before he saw it, and had, therefore, been widely circulated. They desired not only to protest against the doctrines put forward, but also to ask his Grace whether it was lawful for a clergy man of the Church of England to deny the atonement, to state that there was no sufficient authentication of the miracles of our Lord, anG to declare that the prophecies of the Old Testament were not fulfilled in the New. This had been done, and the whole body of the clergy had thought it desirable, whilst they believed that those errors would cor rect themselves, nevertheless to protest against them, and to invite those in authority to take such steps in the matter to remedy the evils which might result from the publication of such views. It had been said by these per sons that they desired to place the Church on a firmer foundation ; but he desired no broader foun dation than the Holy Scriptures whereon to rest their church. That was all sufficient, and nothing that man could do would improve or strengthen that basis. Something hal been said of the charity they should dis play on this occasion, but whilst they pitied those who had fallen into these gross errors, and hoped to see them come to a sense of their error, they must recollect that charity must first he extended to those in their charge whom it was their duty to preserve as far as possible from the injurious effects of such publications as these. They came then to entreat his Grace to consider what was his duty in the face of Christendom in this emergency; whilst they did not undervalue the declaration of their lord ships or the literary efforts to correct these false doctrines, and whilst still less did they believe that the Church was permanently endaugered, they entreated his Grace to con sider whether something could not be done at once. Charity was broad enough for those who entertained the views of Bishop Andrews or '. ishop Sanderson, but it is not broad enough for those who denied the Holy Scriptures. Archdeacon UTTERTON, whilst he deeply regretted the unfortunate publication of these Essays and Reviews, trusted that good might yet come out of evil. It would he hoped be the means of bringing the clergy who had been too much divided into unity, to protect the sacred church. It was, nevertheless, very painful to have to arraign as it were some of those connected with them, to charge them with what he might almost stigmatise with a stronger term than heresy. It was sufficiently lamentable when those connected with the church were guilty of irre verence ; but it was worse, far worse, when they were found denying its truths and expressing such opinions and views as caused them to fear sending their children to the colleges in which they might be induced to receive such erroneous doctrines. The time had now arrived when it because abso lutely necessary that they should take steps to check these evils. Some had objected to sign the address as they had not read the whole of the work. lie thought that a very insuffi cient reason, for it was not necessary to eat the whole joint to test its quality; a slic •out of it was sufficient. Although they knew that the gates of hell would never open for the destruction of the Church, still it was necessary to protect their branch of the Church by repelling such attacks as these. The Archbishop of CANTERBURY said it was with great pleasure that he received the deputation on this important subject. Nothing had been said on this subject to-day of which he did not fully approve. He could not be surprised at the great sensation that these Essays had occasioned amongst his brethren in the clergy; he could not be sur prised that they should have risen as one man in a body to protest against the scandal which had been brought, he might almost say, on themselves. Such opinions as those put forth in the " Essays and Reviews," he agreed, were calculated to undermine, if unanswered, the very founda tions of Christianity. The sentiments of his brother bishops on the matter could not be doubted. They had given a strong testimony to what those opinions were, and he was quite sure the step taken by them would not have been adopted but under a strong conviction of duty. Hav ing referred to a statement in the Saturday Review imput ing to his grace that he used the signatures of his brother bishops in a way he was not entitled to do, and having denied the accuracy of the statement, his grace proceeded to observe that the only way of proceeding against the Essayists was under the Church Discipline Act in the Ecclesiastical Courts. This was always a difficult pro cess, and there were so many technicalities and delays in those courts that if they once got into them they never knew when they would get out again, and this diffi culty is increased on this occasion by the fact that the book was the work of several persons instead of one indi vidual. If they proceeded in the way 119 had referred to, the matter would be kept open for perhaps three or four years, and an objectionable discussion would thus be prolonged. For prudential reasons it might, perhaps, be desirable to avoid the application to the Eccle siastical Courts ; but this, as well as every other part con nected with the case, would receive his and his brother bishops' earnest consideration. He felt he need not say more on the subject. He was greatly obliged to the depu tation for their company ; and, in the name of the Church, he begged to thank them for the attention they had given to this important subject. His Grace having pronounced the benediction, the depu tation withdrew. SPORTING -INTELLICIENM LIVERPOOL SPRING MEETING-MESDA.Y.

The Rev. Dr. Thomson, Provost of Queen's Col lege, Oxford ; the Rev. Prof essor Elli co tt, 8.D., o f Cambridge; the Rev. Professor Mansel, 8.D., of Oxford ; the Rev. George Rmlinson, M.A., of Oxford, and other clergymen distinguished in the Church, have announced their intention of replying to the " Essays and Reviews" in a volume which they will speedily publish, under the title of "Aids to Faith." It has been announced that the clergy of the archdeaconry of London will meet at 6ion College on the 25th inst., when au address on the duty of the clergy in reference to the "Essays and Reviews" will be delivered by the Rev. B. Morgan Cowie, 8.D., vicar of St. Lawrence Jewry. Mr. Cowie was senior wrangler at Cambridge in 1839, and holds at the present time the Gresham Profes sorship of Geometry. A meeting of the clergy of the Archdeaconry of Exeter was holden on Monday afternoon in the Chapter House, Exeter, " to express the thanks of the clergy to the archbishops and bishops for the unanimous censure which they had passed upon a book entitled " Essays and Reviews."' The Rev. Canon Woolcombe presided, and amongst those pre sent were the Rev. J. C. Bartholomew, Rev. P. Freeman, Rev. R. H. Fortescue, Rev. J. Bucking ham, Rev. Dr. Cornish, Rev. Prebendary Lee, Rev. Prebendary Tate, Rev. J. J. Reynolds, Rev. Walker, Rev. R. A. Knox, Rev. J. Bradford, Rev. C. Roper, &c., &c. The smallness of the attendance is attributed to the limited notice that had been given of the meeting. The first resolution affirmed the desirability of expressing the thanks of the clergy to the archbishops and bishops for the ex pression of their disapproval of " Essays and Re views," and was proposed in an able speech by the Rev. C. Bartholomew, who described the several essays and their tendencies. This was seconded b 3 the Rev. P. Freeman, and adopted by the meeting. The Rev. Prebendary Lee moved the second reso lution, which was seconded by the Rev. J. Buck ingham. This resolution defined the method of giving expression to the feeling of the meeting. Thanks were voted to the chairman, and the meet ing separated. A PRISONER ATTEMPTING TO KILL HIS JUDGE. —The West Riding intermediate sessions have been held at Wakefield during the week. Mr. J. B. Greenwood, of Dewsbury Moor, presiding. We understand that just when he was passing sentence in the last case, a prisoner named Gallacher, from Bradford, threw with great force a heavy bone at his head. The missile just missed, but had it been true to its mark, it might have killed Mr. Greenwood. He declined to add anything to the man's sentence, but directed that in future prisoners, besides being searched at the prison, should be searched before being placed in the dock,—Aia)?cliester Examiner. REFORM 31.E.E71NG AT KI2VGSLAND. Last evening a crowded meeting of the inhabi tants of Kingsland was held in the British School room, Kingsland-road, for the purpose of taking steps to advance the cause of reform, and adopt a petition to Parliament in favour of the reform mea sures of Mr. Locke King and Mr. Edward Baines, at present before the House of Commons. Mr. F. CLARKE, having been voted to the chair, briefly introduced the proceedings of the evening, condemning the present system of refusing the franchise to so large a portion of the community, who were nevertheless called upon to contribute to the expenditure of the state. He considered that were the two measures now before Parliament adopted they would add 'to the constituency such an additional number of independent voters as in the case of a general election might return such a House of Commons as would give them a full and a fair measure of reform. (Cheers.) Dr. WHITE then moved the following resolution : —" That, in the opinion of this meeting, every man contributing to' the expenses of the state, and obey ing its laws, is entitled to all the privileges of a good citizen ; that it is unjust to exclude any such man from the elective franchise ; and that the bills introduced into Parliament by Mr. Locke Bing and Mr. Edward Baines should be supported as an instalment towards the full attainment of that pri vilege!' He thought the first step towards the attainment of this privilege was the universal spread of education, in order that the people at ' large might know not only how to Maim but but also how to use the:franchise when obtained. He was quite sure they never would have an econo mical Government until they had a very consider able extension of the franchise, and therefore they ought to use their efforts to obtain such, and thereby in some degree relieve the heavily taxed people of this country. (Hear.) The resolution 'having been seconded by Mr. BAILEY, was unanimously agreed to. A resolution was then moved by Mr. PREEDY, to the effect that a petition be presented to the House of Commons, declaring that the meeting regarded with indignation the repeated postponements of reform ; and while desiring a complete and compre hensive measure, prayed the house to pass without delay, as an instalment of the people's rights, the bills for the reduction of the county and borough franchise. Mr. CRANSTON second the resolution, which, on being put from the chair, was agreed to unani mously; and a petition having been agreed to in the terms of it, the proceedings closed with a vote of thanks to Mr. Clarke for his conduct in the chair.

The quotation of gold at Paris is about 3 per raffle prem., and the short exchange on London is 25.40 per .£1 sterling. On comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3 17s. Wad. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is about 6-10ths per cent. dearer in London than in Paris. By advices from Hamburg the price of ge ld is 427 per mark, and the short exchange on London is 13.71 per £1 sterling. Standard gold at the English Mint pr ice is, therefore, about 6-10ths per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburg. The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at 60 days' sight is 165 ).to 10s for first-class bills. Although this shows the exchange to be against England, the high rate of interest in both, countries, and the loss of time before the gold is received back from the American Mints, render it doubtful if any profit can be made at the present rites by sending gold to the United States. 20 1 20 5 1 40 DOCKS. 1 stock Commercial lOO stock i Do. 4 per (3ent.PrPt.3lin , 100 stock East and West India 110 stock ;London ..... 5~. stock St. Katharine... lOO Southampton lOO Victoria . 100 Do New.

The SPEAKER took the chair shortly after twelve o'clock, NAVY (WOODEN SHIPS). _ _ Mr. CORRY obtained a return specifying the names of the wooden ships intended to carry guns on more than one deck now building, and showing in Bths the state of pro gress of each ship towards completion. COUNTY FRANCHISE BILL. _ . ➢lr. LOCKE KING moved the second reading of this bill. He said, as the principle of the bill had frequently been approved by that house, he need not repeat the argu ments which had been adduced in its favour; but he had to regret that hon. gentlemen who opposed him did not resort to direct means for throwing it out, but took indirect measures, which he did not think creditable to the house. The hon. gentleman met some objections which have been urged against the bill, and came to the conclusion that there were no real force in them. He strongly urged upon the Government the necessity of priceeding without delay with some practical measure of reform. Mr. A. SMITH moved as an amendment "The previous question." He thought they could not look to the measure by itself, but must regard the inevitable consequences which would flow from it. If they proposed this bill it would be impossible to retain those differences which ought to exist between county and town constituencies. He considered that the hon. member for Birmingham had done much to retard the progress of reform by his ceaseless agitation. Although that hon. gentleman perseveringly smoked the pipe of peace, he raised such a cloud of smoke as to lead to the supposition that there was something like incendiarism at the bottom of it. Mr. DU CANE considered that the motion of the hon. member for East Surrey was extremely inopportune at the present moment, and he therefore seconded the amend ment. The question had been fairly discussed in two suc cessive Parliaments, at.d under the auspices of two adminis trations, and he had no hesitation in saying that, throughout the country there was a perfect indifference on the matter. Lord HENLEY objected to the bill, because, while it created a vast number of additional county electors, it made no provision for diminishing the expenses of county elec tions, which were at present enormous and scandalous. In Northamptonshire the expenses of conveying voters in one year, from February, 1858, to February, 1859, were £lO,OOO, or very close upon it. He would take the case of Colches ter. In that county there was a farm of 1,000 acres, which was let out to at least fifty tenants. Now, the proprietor of this ground might, by means of the .-he number of small voters would be able to swamp the whole constituency. Mr. ADDERL EY said, he did not consider the hon. member (Mr. L. King) had any ground for congratulation on the description of support which he had received from hon. members. The hon. member seemed to consider that there was a virtue in a £lO occupancy, but he denied that he had advanced any proper basis for his measure. He denied that the county constituency was corrupt, or that it exhibited any want of independence, so as to justify a. bill of this description. The case for the bill rested on an isolated instance, and it was not of general appli cation. The fact was, that constitutionally the county con stituency was not placed in a proper position, and ke re ferred to Staffordshire, where the electors connected with the potteries overwhelmed the other constituency, and to Birmingham, where the 40s. electors formed a considerable number. He, therefore, felt bound to oppose the second reading. Mr. BRISTOW expressed his surprise that any opposi tion could be offered towards ,this, bilk by t.liottitwhit called 'themselves reformers. He thought hon. ,members were mistaken atfout th 4 feeilitg of the fetidly, if - thet supposed there was any sentiment of indifference pervading the com munity in reference to the question of Reform. (Hear, hear.) Notwithstanding that reformers had been twitted with the absence of indignatirn meetings, he could assure hon. members that in the Midland Counties where greater interest was felt on the question than in metropolitan boroughs, constituencies were watching with anxiety the progress of this bill, in order to see how members who were sent to Parliament pledged to support reform, and ministers would act in reference to the measure, as indices of what what they might expect from their representatives and Go vernment. He supported the bill not only on its intrinsic merits, but on extrinsic grounds, for it had a peculiar im portance at the present time with the people of England. He trusted, therefore, that the bill would be carried by a large majority of independent members, and that Govern ment would show, not only by their conduct in regard to the present question, but in future with regard to the subject of reform, that they were anxious to have the question settled. Ho believed that this alone would be the means of averting that storm of popular indignation, which might be expected to break forth by a further delay of the question, notwithstanding the patient and reasonable character of the people of this country. (Hear, hear.) Sir L. PALK strongly deprecated the attempts made by hon. members in respect to the question of reform, by en deavouring to effect a defeat which they could not accom plish by acomprehensive measure which Parliament had already rejected. He denied that there was any popular feeling in favour of this bill, which was shown by the fact that the hon. member for Surrey had to re• introduce it from session to session. He believed that eventually a com prehensive measure would be required, but he did not think the time had arrived. He considered that the effect of this bill would be to throw increased political power into the hands of the commercial classes, and it would be most dan gerous to pass any bill of such a nature without accompany ing it with safeguards. He concluded by moving as an amendment the previous question. Lord ENFIELD said he felt bound to support the bill. _ _ It had been objected to the measure that the 'amount en titling to the franchise was too low, but he believed that no one was pledged to any amount, and as far as he was concerned he reserved to himself a perfect right to deal with the bill in committee. With regard to the argument about the rejection of large measures of reform by the house as being a reason for not introducing a measure of detail, he contended that Reform was more likely to be carried out by means of the latter. Reformers might endeavour to carry out their views in reference to the county franchise by pas sing this bill, and next session they might deal with the question of the borough franchise. (Hear, hear, and oh, oh.) Considering the pledges he had given to his consti tuency, and the promises of the house to deal with the sub ject of Reform, he thought he was called on to support this bill. Mr. HUNT said the object of the bill was to introduce into county constituencies a town element of franchise which operates most unjustly. He thought it might be desirable to make an alteration in the county franchise, which he would not object to see lowered to £2O, provided it was attended with safeguards. Mr. CONINGHAM considered that bringing forward a measure of this description was only trifling with the great subject of reform, and bringing the Liberal party into con tempt with the country. Members who advocated the mea sure must know that with the opposition of the Govern ment and of members on the Opposition benches they could not expect to carry the bill. He was a sincere Reformer, and denounced measures like the present as the result of a sham and hypocritical feeling on the part of pretended Reformers. However, he did not intend to vote against the bill—(laughter)—for he would not wish it to be under stood that he was opposed to the £lO franchise, but he would not vote in its favour. Mr. A. EGERTON opposed the bill, but considering himself pledged to reform, he would support a compre hensive measure, including a £25 franchise. Sir G. C. LEWIS said that it had been observed that there were three modes of dealing with the question of re • form. In the first place, the Government might introduce a comprehensive measure, or, as in the present instance, it might be dealt with in detail by private members. The Government came to the conclusion that after the experi ence if 19st session, it would not be advisable to introduce a similar bill on the subject of Parliamentary Reform to that of last year. He concurred in the wisdom of that de cision, and was a party to it, and his opinion was unaltered He thought that the wisdom of that decision had been con firmed by the vote of the house on the first night of the session and the feeling of the country. On the occasion alluded to there was a reso lution. proposed pled g i ng th e h ouse th a t it was th e i r opinion the Government ought to introduce a comprehen sive measure of Parliamentary Reform, and it was nega tived, there being only 46 in its favour, while against it there were 129. The principle clearly affirmed by that vote was that it was not desirable for her Majesty's Govern ment to introduce this session any bill on Reform. Nothing had since occurred to call for any a lt era tion in the course the Government had pursued. With regard to the two measures, the present and the one relating to the borough franchise, which proposed to deal with piequestmn, of the country. But they were they would effect a considerable alteration in lio the m constitu encieseasutesof produced simul ofexistthede different members, and . were taneously, and mat difficu l ltie n s in dealing with them. ill n u e s c tr e a ss t a io r n ily he referred to the bill which he intro uce for the transfer feeling of indifference towards. n the d que d stion of reform, Some years ago that transfer would have of four seats. been considered a mater of considerable importance, but the manner in which it had been treated did not show that there was any strong feeling on the question at present. He was desirous of seeing reform carried out in detail, but in his opinion the time had not arrived for discussing the sub ject. However, there was nothing to prevent gentlemen from voting for the second reading of the bill on the ground of the £lO franchise, for the measure could be altered in committee, and he himself would vote for the second read ing. (Hear. hear, and laughter.) Mr. BARROW opposed the bill on the ground that it would smamp the 40s. freeholders. Mr. OSBORNE complained strongly of the conduct of some of the reform members, which left the question o f reform in a st a t e o f con f us i o n, and was increased by the speech of the right hon. gentleman (Sir G. C. Lewis). H e thought his hon. friend the member :for Surrey had been trusted in respect to his measure like a too confiding young lady. He (Mr. L. King) had received a promise of mar riage from the right hon. gentleman in his y ou th , but he had been abandoned in his sear and yellowleaf—(laughter) —and ultimately he found himself turned into the streets of the metropolis. (Great laughter.) This question of Re form, which had been one of the great stalking holies, had become simply ridiculous. He thought the feeling in favour of Reform was much overrated, and that the only . two hon. members that were really sincere on the subject were the hon member for Birmingham and the noble lord, the member for the ci'y of London, and that many other inembets in their apparent zeal on the question were guilty of political insincerity. They had come fresh from the . hustings, where they had spent more money than they wished, and they were pledged to reform, so that they were apprehensive, if they did not make some sort of demon stration in its favour, they might be sent back to their constituents the next year. (Hear, hear, and laughter.) He felt bound to support this bill, and would not follow the example of the non. member for Brighton (Mr. Coning ham)—(laughter) —but would vote for the second reading. After a few words from Mr. BEACH and Mr. EGERTON, Lord J. RUSSELL said that in 1848 he thought there should be an extension of the franchise, because he thought it would strengthen the constitution of the country. He thought, therefore, that it would be wise to come to some arrangement in order that Parliament might gravely con sider the question without danger of being over awed as it had been on previous occasions. Pie was of opinion also that any reform that could be introduced should be embodied in some great comprehensive measure, and not by detached portions. At the same time he did not see why the house should wait for a large meature, and decline to consider the bill before the house as it stood. He thought the hon. member for East Surrey was quite justified in bringing forward his bill, which, if passed, would undoubtedly remedy a great defect of the bill of 1832. Mr. DISRAELI said that there had been a settlement of the question of reform in 1832, and when in 1851 the noble lord re-introduced the subject, it was for him to consider whether that settlement was an adequate one. He con tended that it was impossible to deal satisfactorily with the question of reforin except by a complete and comprehen sive measure. The noble lord admitted that, and yet he upon n e w an ha e t x gr cep o t u i n on ds in he re im er r e . ncetothe m Disraeli) was to comprehend. With regard to the bill before them, he de unetyntfirraenlychiatse but o loss l de nied that they could consider the due and legitimate incidence of the county franchise unless they considered at the same time the borough franchise, and other circumstances affect ing the representation of the people. He could not say that if a large measure of reform were submitted, and this bill were part of it, that he could support it, for this bill did not by any means provide for the changes which he thought. should be introduced into the county franchise, changes by which the various classes in counties should be thoroughly represented. The right hon. gentleman vindicated, at some length, the Reform Bill which was introduced by Lord Derby's Government. The "previous question" having been moved by way of amendment, the house divided upoa the point, "That the question be now put" Ayes 220 Noes Majority —2B The cheers of the Conservative party were of the most boisterous character, when the numbers were announced by the tellers, the bill being virtually lost. AFFIRMATIONS BILL. Sir J. TRELAWNY moved the second reading of this bill, substituting affirmations in lieu of oaths in certain cases. Mr. HARDY said the real question was whether oaths were to be administered in courts of justice. Believing that it made a great difference to people whether they were sworn or not, he opposed the motion.. He moved as an amendment that the bill be read a second time this day six months. It being five minutes to six o'clock the house adjourned . PARLIAMENTARY DIVISION. HOUSE OF COMMONS—MARCH 12. BOARD OF ADMIRALTY COMMITTEE. Motion made, and question put, " That it be an instruction to the Select Committee appointed to inquire into the constitution of the Board of Admiralty, and the various duties devolving thereon, also as to the general effect of _ such system on the navy, to consider the present system of promotion and retirement in the royal navy, and to report their opinion thereon."

It was believed that the body had remained in the ditch for many months.
