Questions often require vast outlay to answer and time to settle. As Russians have not satisfactorily answered questions of national right, they must pay dearly for the experiment. It would be difficult to answer for 'he weather—Wet or D y ? but it is easy and inexpensive to prepare for it at the establishment of E. MOSES and SoN. A s everybody knows how far E. MOSES and Sox can excel all others in their lino of business, and everybody else asks what that line of business is. allow us for once to answer for them. E. Mons and 50N make those kinds of Dress which display the highest order of fashion, taste, comfo , t, and economy—they sell, in suits or single garments, the Attire which is approved by every one, and suits the season in every respect. They are the Tailors of the Array, Navy, and the Professions, the Manufacturers of Liveries. Sporting Dress, I adies' H a bi ts, &c. In each branch E. MOSES and Sox have the lead for Style, Elegance, Comfort, and Economy. They have the greatest variety of fashions in Juvenile Attire, and beyond any question they have produced the most popular and satisfactory articles which were ever offered. They are Hatters and Boater, having the newest fashions, the richest and most useful goods ; there is, therefore, no question about every one being able to make the most profitable selection at their establishment, or their West -end branch. They are Wholesale Merchants, Outfitters, and Exporters to all parts of the world. They have the largest Stock of Clothing, Shirts, Boots and Shoes, &c.; for the Colonies or the Home Trade ; .and the question of profits, without the possibility of loss, will be easily settled by Merchants, Captains, and others inspect ing their goods, which are unrivalled for superiority and Cheapness.

MOSES and SON regret having to guard the public against imposition, having learned that the tintradesman-like falseh od of Being connected with their Establishment," or " It's the same concern," has been resorted to in many instances, an for obvious reasons, they bag to state that they have No CONNEXION WITH ANY OTHER HOUSE IN OS OUT OP LONDON, except their own Establishments, as follows : London City Establishment, 154, 155, 156, and 157, Wineries, 84, 85, and 86, Aldgate, opposite the Church. all communicating, London West-end Branch, 506, 507, 508, New Oxford-street, 1,2, and 3, Hart-street, all commuicating.

Ho could have no objection, if that would answer his noble friend's purpose, to a motion for the pro duction of the cor oner ' s notes. that was a public matter. The committee might consider ' the case of a very hospitable man who made himself be loved by a district for his benevolence. Constituents might desire to honour such a man with their confidence. Surely the benevolence of. that individual could not be mistaken for an incurring of expenses for corrupt motives, although this clause were to pass. When these various cases were met fairly, there was really no mystification or difficulty in the matter. If the committee had been guilty of any fault it was listening too much to the objections which had been made to the bill. (Hear.) It was perfectly evident that it was beyond the power of language to meet every possible case which might arise, and do what you would the imagination of some hon. members—(hear)—would frame combinations to which no set of words would pre cisely apply. The endeavour of the legislature should be to frame a general rule in the spirit of justice, and believ ing that this clause was in accordance with that spirit— (hear)—he was prepared to give it his vote. (Hear.) Mr. HENLEY said the committee should bear in mind the difficulty in which members would be placed with re gard to the proposed declaration if this clause were carried, tor upon its construction his hon. and learned friend (Sir F. Kelly) and the hon. and learned Attorney-General, two of the highest men in the profession, appeared to entertain totally opposite opinions as to its effect. He really thought the committee were muddling their time away upon a measure which would end in nothing. (Hear, hear, and laughter.) The ATTORNEY-GENERAL thoughtthat there would not be such difficulty as to the declaration as some hon. gentlemen imagined, if the words " private purposes" were omitted from the clause. Sir J. PAKINGTON had no desire to make difficulties, but they had been forced upon the committee, more espe cially by the Attorney-General. That learned gentleman commenced by opposing this proviso, but now he accepted it. Ile was sorry to hear the imputation thrown out by the noble lord (Lord J. Russell) of an' unwillingness to check bribery. During the progress of this bill an earnest desire had been evinced to suppress the evil; but there were other thing?; to be kept in view, and if the Attorney- General's interpretation was to be accepted, he (Sir J. Pakington) could not assent to the clause. HOUSE OF LORDS-(YESTERDAY.) The house met at 5 o'clock. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE moved the first read ing of a bill for the repeal of the usury laws. Agreed to. The bill was ordered to be read a second time on Monday next. ROOTEL Mr. SPOONER asked w Y hether the report of the com mission appointed to inquire into the College of Maynooth would be presented before the end of the session, and if so, whether it would be printed and circulated during the recess ? Lord J. RUSSELL would make inquiry, and give an answer on Monday. - BILL. The order of th e day BRIBERY for the consideration of this bill, as amended, having been read, 91r. LIDDELL moved to substitute the following clause for clause A section X disqualifying paid agents from voting :—"lf any person shall, either during any election of a member to serve in Parliament, or within six calendar months previous to such election, or within fourteen days after it shall have been completed, be employed at such election as counsel, agent, attorney, poll-clerk, flagman, or in any other capacity, for the purposes of such election, and shall at any time, either before, during, or after such election, accept or take from any such candidate or candi dates, or from any person whatsoever, for or in considera tion of or with reference to such employment, any sum or sums of money, retaining fee, office, place, or employment, or any promise or security for any sum or sums of money, retaining fee, office, place, or employment, such person shall be deemed incapable of voting at such election, and his vote, if given, shall be utterly void and nf none effect, and shall render him liable to forfeit the' enm of fifty pounds to any person who shall sue for the eiatne, together with full costs of suit." Sir F. KELLY suggested that those amendments about which there was but little difference of opinion should be taken without discussion, and that afterwards thny should proceed with those questions, now red:need, he believed, to two—that relating to the payment of travelling expenses and refreshments, respecting which he should hereafter have to propose a clause, and that of which his noble friend (Lord Vane-Tempest) had given notice as to the de claration to be made by the proposer and seconder of the candidates. He hoped his hon. friend's (Mr. Liddell's) clause would be received by the house. The house then went into committee, and the clauses were gone through. On clause 10, Sir F. KELLY said that as by this clause payments for "cockades" were made illegal, he proposed to add words making all payments for chairing, bands of music, and banners illegal also. Mr. NEWDEGATE objected to elections being con ducted like funerals, though he was no advocate for extra vagance. Mr. J. FITZGERALD said the conflicting opinions which he had heard that evening had somewhat shaken his previous view. He thought there WllB too much cookery, too much of an endeavour to legislate minutely, and it was this which had created all the difficulty. (Hear.) He did not atilt approve of the proviso, and he should have conceived it to be entirely unnecessary but for the decla ration of the Attorney-General that in his opinion " election expenses" would include registration expenses. Sir F. KELLY thought the committee should now pro ceed to determine whether the clause was to be retained or not. It was only an express declaration of what he con ceived to be the law already. As regarded subscriptions to charities, the only question was whether they were bona, fide. Re had no objection to the omission of the words " or private." kr. V. SMITH asked what would be the effect of the words "illegal payments ?" Sir F. KELLY—The effect would be that the candidate could not be called to pay for such things as chairing, music, or banners. Mr. IRTON and Lord F/OTHAU opposed the amendment. Lord J. RUSSEL said he did not think the amendment necessary, but as large sums might be paid for chairing, bands, and banners he had no objection to vote for it. After a few words from several hon. members, The committee divided, when there appeared— For the amendment Against it 57-49 The amendment was accordingly agreed to, as were also clauses 11 and 12. Mr. V. SMITH contended that the proviso opened a large door to bribery. Lord J. RUSSELL wished to explain. In his opinion the majority of the house had throughout the discussion shown itself very desirous to put down bribery ; but he certainly thought there were some m em b ers w h o had made so much difficulty that if there were no laws against bri bery it would perhaps be difficult to get them to assent to the passing of any. (Cries of " name.") Lord SEYMOUR said it appeared to him that the whole force of the declaration depended in great measure on the proviso. (Hear, hear.) The leader of that house had told hon. members that they wanted to know too minutely what they were to declare. It appeared to him that when the's , were called upon to make a solemn declaration they 'could not be too minute in asking what was the sense in which they were expected to make it. (Hear, hear.) It was, he thought, very unfitting in the noble lord, when a solemn declaration was to be made, to turn round and say " Don't be too particular in inquiring what the words mean." (Hear, hear.) He would put this case to the hon, and learned member for Suffolk :—Supposing a gentleman who was a member for a town, having no local connexion with it, subscribed 1,0001. to a library:in that town, would that case come within the proviso ? On clause 13, Mr. VERNON objected to the provision which the clause made for prosecuting the minor offences under the bill in the County Court, and therefore, he moved an amendment with a view of enacting that the minor as well as the major offences under the bill, should be carried to the superior courts. (Hear.) After a brief discussion the amendment was agreed to without a division, and the clause so amended was ordered to be added to the bill. Clause 14 was agreed to, as was also clause 15. Sir F. KELLY moved to omit clause 16, expressing his intention afterwards to bring up a clause respecting the period at which the election officer should be appointed. The clauso was struck out. On clause 17, Sir F. KELLY said he had not the least difficulty in answering the question. Such a subscription would be perfectly legal. So also would be a subscription towards the building of a church, or for any similar purpose. The committee divided— For he prOyiSCI , Against it Mr. T. DUNCOMBE said Lord J. Rnssoil had stated that he should oppose any issue of writs to the five sus pended boroughs, Canterbury, Cambridge, Alaldon, Hull, and Barnstaple, if this bill were not carried. If it were carried, the election officers ought to be appointed before the electio ns f or t h ose boroughs took place. Mr. V. SCULLY said he should propose at the proper time, that the election officer be appointed by the County Court judge. The clause was then agreed to. On clause 24, which provides that the consent of the election officer should be given for the compounding of an action, Sir F. KELLY proposed to add words, providing that in case any payment shall have been illegally made by the candidate through inadvertence, it shall be lawful for the judge before whom the action is tried to reduce the penalty to 40s. Lord J. RUSSELL assented to this amendment, and The worth were struck oui, accordingly. Mr. V. SCULLY proposed the addition of the words " and in either case the party recovering shall have ft4l costs of suit." Mr. IN - 011AM proteste&Lagabot ills proposal, on 'the ground that it might encourage malici4us suits. Sir F. KELLY said that the words proposed by Mr. Scully were quito supbrfluous, because a verdict of 40s. al wayscarried costs. --- Mr. SCULLY retorted that the hon. and learned mem ber had been guilty of the same superfluity in more than one of his own clauses, but he (Mr. Scully) would with draw the words. Mr. ELLIOT appealed to Sir F. Kelly to give tho judge the liberty of dispensing with the find altogether if he saw fit. Sir F. KELLY insisted on the necessity of the fine. If words were inserted, empowering the judge to refuse the plaintiff his costs if he saw reason to do so, there would be little dan g er of perso ns h arass i ng innocent men. Mr. HILDYARD indignantly protested against the in adequacy of the proviso to protect persons from the effects of actions brought by men of straw, and declared that the clauses of the bill might, and in times of party excitement probably would, be made the means of inflicting serious injury on a political opponent. He besought the house to pause in its insensate career. (Laughter.) The ATTORNEY -GENERAL said that the hon. gen tleman really intimidated him a little. (Laughter.) What the house wanted to inculcate by the bill was that pay ments should only be made in a particular manner ; and, therefore, although they would do quite right to reduce the penalty in cases where there had been no corrupt in tention, yet they ought not to let persons go quite scot free fur acts which were a clear infraction of the law. (1-I S e i a r , F KELLYr,h.ear) promised, at the bringing up of the re port, t o p ropose a clause empowering the judge to call on parties bringi ng act i ons to give securities for the costs. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said that such a course would me e t w ith h is entire approval. (Hear, hear.) Mr. GE ACFI did not thi n k t h e bill would prevent bri bery, b u t wou l d only lead to innumerable actions, a large proportion of w hi c h would be compromised. Words were then inserted empowering the judge to re fuse the plaintiff his costs, as had been suggested. Sir F. KELLY said the following; proviso bad also been proposed :—" Provided also, and be it declared and en acted, that no expenses of or relating to the registration of electors, and no subscriptions or contributions bona fide made to or for any public, or private, or charitable pur pose, shall be deemed election expenses within the mean ing of this act." He had no objection to the proviso. Tho ATTORNEY-GENERAL opposed the proviso on the ground that it would open a wide door for bribery. Sir J. PAKINGTON contended that it would be most unjust to include charitable s ubscriptions as election ex penses._ Mr. LIDDELL and Mr. HARCOURT supported the pro viso. RA. l . h L iel s l aid the prov . The ATTORNEY-GENE include certain contribution s % election, but, at the same time,iso might tration expenses, it was certain that n most widespread bribery. time the reg it had no reference to th e meer)opened a door to th contribution to such expenses but „mi o t a a ndidate t his mae e lL e n e y . As regarded madeh The introduction of the word " ' o give private' would • view the proviso a most injurious operation. Sir F. KELLY would not Say that . . corruption might not be practised under the head of registration expenses — but in general they were not borne by the candidates so all, but were defrayed from a special fund. The registra tion expenses were annually incurred, and as an election might only happen at the end of fi v . 3 37ears candidates penses were entered into. (Haar-) Re had meant to in itistration ex troduce the word " reasonable h might not even be known at the Le amendment, but had been omitted by a clerical error. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL would accept the amend ment as amended, but must insist on the omission of the words " or private." Mr. GEACH said, an unfortunate fellow, a constituent of his, had called upon him the other day it, great distress, and he had relieved him. It was quite true he should not have succoured the man, but because he was an elector for Coventry, and because he (Mr. Geach) Was member for Coventry. (Cheers and laughter.) Had this clause passed he must have put the poor fellow out of doors. (Hear, hear.) These restrictions rendered the bill a perfect ab surdity ; and he hoped it would never p ass. (Cheers.) Mr. HEADLAM .asked if reasonable expenses were to be held not to be election expenses, while unreasonable expenses were so considered. Was a reasonable contribu tion to a race or a cricket club an election expense ? (Cheers.) By specifying different kinds of expens es , th ey would only increase the uncertainty. Mr. V. SMITH condemned the pedantic purity into which the house was falling. The Attorney-General pro posed to get over objections by introducing the word " rea sonable." Why, what was reasonable? A thin g W hi ch was reasonable for one man might not be so for another. 111 all depended upon a man's income. (Hear, h ear.) The whole thing was absurd. (Hear.) Mr. HILDYARD said the fact was the house Was at tempting too much. Like the boy in A , sop, th ey were putting their hand into a narrow-necked jar to get at the filberts, and they would find that they could not withdraw it without dropping the nuts. (Hear, and laughter.) He thought that this bill ought not to be pressed forward this session ; enough had been done by the discussion which had taken place. Lord J. RUSSELL thought that the difficulty in this clause arose not so Ditch out of its being an endeavour to put an end to bribery, as out of the attempts made by bon. members to define what was not bribery. H appily, there were laws against bribery already existing, f or if there were not, ho should not bo very sanguine that the members of that house would, in their present temper, consent to put a penalty on bribery at all. (Hear, and cheers.) However, the law already proscribed bribery, a n d iu some respects the present bill was less .severe than th e existing l aw . Th e diffi cu lty which the committee appeared to feel arose from hon. gentlemen raising a vast variety of supposed cases, which might just as well arise under tho existing law. The clause certainly would not fail from at tempting to press too severely; the only possible objection would be to its attempting to define too closely. But it was quite evident that some of the eases which had been Put, such, for instance, as that of relieving a man in deep distresa, were mere acts of private charity, quite without the spirit of the clause. So is the ago of late( to races , ~,/- -~~ '7 . G__- [PRICE SD. CUSTOMS ACTS. The house went into committee on these acts. Mr. WILSON stated that the resolutions to be proposed referred to the hop duty. Mr. M. SMITH objected to the question being enter tained at so late an hour. Mr. FREWEN moved that the chairman should report proggress. A division was called for, on which Mr. Wilson con sented to withdraw the resolutions, and the house re sumed. MILITIA (IRELAND) BILL. This bill was read a second time. DUCHY OF CORNWALL OFFICE BILL. This bill was read a second time. METROPOLITAN SEWERS BILL. On the m o ti on for going into committee ou this bill, Lord PALMERSTON stated that the bill would give the power of taking better securiti es f or t he money to be raised, and would also include outlying districts, power being given to the inhabitants of those districts to elect their own commissioners. The bill then passed through connuitttee. HIGHWAYS (PUBLIC HEALTH ACT) BILL. The bill passed through committee. CHANCERY AMENDMENT BILL. This bill passed through committee. RUSSIAN GOVERNMENT SECURITIES BILL. On the motion for going into committee on this bill, Mr. T. HANKEY said the bill was one which would give rise to considerable discussion, and he objected to its being proceeded with at that hour. Lord PALMERSTON said there was no necessity for discussion on this bill in committee. It would be entirely contrary to the law, as it existed, to advance money to au enemy with whom we were at war ; and such an act would carry its own reprobation with it.. The measure would be a great moral demonstration. (Hear.) • Mr. M.*GIBSON wished to hear the views of Mr. Wil son this bill. (Hear.) Th 4 house was entitled to some explanation of its provisions. Lord D. STUART said that the contractors of a loan with Russia would, by the existing law, be guilty of high treason ; but they might sell their s c rip, an d therefore the bill proposed to render this illegal. By closing our mar ket to such a loan, Russia would not be able to borrow money. He thought this bill would have commended it self to the peace party, for it was a mode of combating Russia which was entirely bloodless. (Hear.) Mr. WILSON doubted the possibility of "crumpling up" Russia by such a measure as the one proposed. The English capitalists might buy stock of an anterior date to that which was contemplated by this bill, and consequent ly the measure would have no force. It would also lead capitalists in Holland and elsewhere to buy the stock which was interdicted here. He thought such a measure as the one proposed was calculated to bring a legislative assembly into contempt. Mr. I. BUTT deprecated a discussion on the bill at-that hour. Mr. BRIGHT expressed his belief that the bill would be perfectly useless, or would only operate to the injury of our own merchants. As there was a difference between the Howe Secretary and the secretary for the Treasury on this bill, he would suggest that the Government should have a conference before the bill was proceeded with. He thought it nothing more than a piece of claptrap, and he therefore should oppose the motion for going into commit tee upon it. Mr. HENLEY fully concurred with the hon. gentleman in thinking this measure "moonshine." (Laughter.) if the question was to be dealt with at all, it should be touched by the Government. Mr. CAIRNS hoped, after what had passed, that this bill would not be proceeded with. Mr. M. CHAMBERS would suggest that the bill should be postponed. He (Mr. Chambers) had put his name on the bill, and he hoped on a fit occasion to be able to justify that step. He considered the measure neither claptrap nor moonshine. Lord D. STUART had no objection to postpone this bill, and the debate adjourned accordingly until Monday next. BLEACHING, &0., WORKS BILL. .. - Upon the orde r o f th e day or the second reading of this bill, Mr. BRIGHT decidedly objected to this bill, which had only lately come from the lords, being proceeded with. Ho should advise the hon. member who had charge of the measure (Mr. I. Butt) to refer it to a select committee. Mr. BUTT could not take the course suggested by the hon. gentleman without consulting others. lie only pro posed now to postpone the matter till Monday. Agreed to. The house adjourned at ten minutes past two. THE WAR. NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. A letter from Baltschik, dated July 9, gives the follow in particulars respecting the Black Sea fleets : "At Anchor—The Britannia (flag), Agamemnon (flag), Queen, Trafalgar, Albion, Vengeance, Bellerophon, Lon don, Rodney, Retribution, Sidon, Tribune, Diamond, and Caradoc. " At Varna—Sanspareil, Simoom, and Spitfire. " There 12 French line-of-battle ships and some steamers at Baltschik, and 2 French liners and steamers at Varna. "The Admiral (Dundas) is very liberal in granting leave 1 11 - the officers to visit Varna, which they are enabled to do in men of war steamers, which tire constantly running be tallen the two places. The squadron of steamers sent to reconnoitre off Sebastopol is hourly expected in. " Lord Raglan made an application to the Admiral for the services of some seamen, whom he deemed would prove very useful to him when he approached the Danube. This very soon transpired in the fleet, and the scenes of excite ment that took place baffle description ; petty officers came forward begging to be disrated toable-seamen, and offering to forfeit all their petty officer's servitude if their respective captains would only send them on this service. No other arrangement could be come to than that of drawing lots. The command of the little party was given to Lieutenant Henay C. Glvn and Prince Ernest of Leiningen, both of the Britannia (tile latter a midshipman). They started over land for Varna on the 7th. " Admirals Dundas and Lyons went to Varna on the sth in the Retribution, and returned in the evening. While there they saw a review of 45,000 French soldiers. " Commander Randolph, of the Rodney, has gone on • leave to Malta, owing to severe domestic affliction. " The Fury arrived at Baltschik on the evening of the Bth from Constantinople with Russian prisoners on board. She started immediately afterwards for Odessa to exchange them for the Tiger's. " An eineute occurred on board the Britannia a few days ago, which was speedily arrested by the energetic conduct of Commander Willes. It arose as follows :—He ordered the crew to muster with their bags in order to ascertain what clothing they required previous to the issue of slops, that he might thus put a check upon the common practice of selling the cloth they draw from the paymaster. This being an innovation upon the routine that prevailed in the ship, they declined complying with his order, and con ducted themselves otherwise in a mutinous manner, when Commander Willes immediately arrested ten of the ring leaders, and thus rest ore d or d er. The Admiral addressed a memorandum to Captain Carter, which was rea d t o th e crew, in which he s t a t e d th at the officers of his flagship had been selected from gentlemen of the highest profcs sional character, and intimating his intention to support them under any and every circumstance. Five of the ten men were sentenced to receive 36 lashes each, and one was discharged with disgrace from the service." Rear-Admiral M. F. F. Berkeley, C.B. First Naval Lord of the Ad m i ra lt y, C apta i n Sir Baldwin W. Walker, K.C.8., surveyor of the navy, and Mr. Isaac Watts, assistant-surveyor of the navy, visited Woolwich dock yard to-day, and the Arrow, the most advanced of the gun-boats for the Baltic, having been taken into dock, was minutely inspected by the rear-admiral, and the surveyor and assistant-surveyor of the navy. The Arrow is built entirely of wood, and her masts, which are now put in, have a very light appearance. She has been commissioned by Lieutenant-Commander Jolliffe, of the Myrmidon steam-vessel, and the crew of that vessel having been turned over to her, it is expected the will be ready for trial in about ten days. The Royal Albert, 131, guns, screw steam-ship, Com mander Alexander Little.—Mr. Frederick J. Taplin, assistant-engineer of the second class, late of her Ma jesty's steam-sloop Fury in the Black Sea, has taken up his commission and joined this ship. Exmouth, 91, screw, recently launobed at Devonport, was taken into the new dock at that yard, on Thursday, to be coppered ; in fact, this was the opening of the dock, the Exmouth being the first ship taken into it. This new dock has been built on the site of the old and first Royal dock, built in this yard in the reign of Wii liam 111. It is so capacious that the Exmouth—to use a familiar nautical comparison—looks like a jolly-boat in it. On the ship being clean into dock three-times-threearteeifin hearty cheers were given by the officers and tide, which The above operation was performed at ne a p is something new at Dovonport. Capt.

The Earl of HARRINGTON inquired whether the report was true that the Earl of Westmoreland had stated to the Cabinet of Vienna that the Polish subjects of the Czar would not be allowed to follow the standard of the allies ? He could scarcely believe this possible, because the cause of the allies mainly depended upon the co-operation of Poland. 'Without restoring the in dependence of the thirteen millions of people in that country a permanent peace could never be obtained in Europe. ' The Earl of ABERDEEN, in the absence of the Earl of Clarendon, said he thought he might undertake to say that no instructions had been sent to Lord West moreland to prevent Polish subjects of the Czar giving their services to the allies. As to our troops, it was a question for the commander-in-chief to decide whether deserters from another power should be employed in our 'behalf. MESSAGE FROM THE QUEEN. The Earl of ABERDEEN brought up the following message froth her Majesty, which was read by the Lord Chancellor. MESSAGE FROM THE QUEEN. " Victoria Regina. —Her Majesty, deeming it expedi ent to provide for any additional expenses which may arise in consequence of- the war in which her Majesty is engaged against the Emperor of Russia, relies on the affections of the House of Lords for their concurrence in such measures as may be necessary for making provision accordingly." On the motion of the Earl of ABERDEEN it was ordered that her Majesty's Message should be taken into consideration on Monday next. CONVOCATION. The Bishop of LONDON moved for copies of reports from committees of convocation of the province of Can terbury, presented to the Convocation. The right rev. prelate took occasion to express an earnest hope that the bishops and clergy of the Church of England might be allowed again the privilege which was enjoyed by every other Christian Church, of meeting together for synodi cal action.—Agreed to. COLONIAL CLERGY. Lord LYTTLETON asked whether the Government intended at any future time to introduce any measure for the relief of the disabilities of the colonial clergy. The Duke of NEWCASTLE said unfortunately the decision upon the bill which had been introduced on this subject into the house had been postponed for the pre sent session. The attention of the Government should, however, continue to be directed to the subject, and he hoped that next session a bill might be introduced which would he free from the objections which were urged to that measure. VALUATION OF LANDS (SCOTLAND) BILL. On the order of the day for the second reading of this bill, The Duke of BUCCLEUCH presented petitions from Glasgow and Edinburgh against certain portions of the bill. The Duke of ARGYLL having moved the second reading of the bill, The Duke of BUCCLEUCH said he thought it very important that there should be a re-valuation of lands in Scotland ; but he must strongly urge upon the Govern ment the expediency of not proceeding, during the pre sent session, with a bill which was so little known in Scotland. The bill had been re-committed no less than five times in the other house, and the enacting clauses and the preamble did not agree. The Duke of ARGYLL said though the bill had re ceived many amendments, it had, he believed, been care fully watched throughout by the representatives of the Scotch counties. He would appoint Tuesday next for the committee, when he should be happy to listen to any suggestion from the noble duke. The bill was then read a second time, and ordered to be committed on Tuesday next, The following, bills were read a second time :—Criminal Justice (Metropolis) Bill, Friendly Societies Bill, and the Registration of Bills of Sale (Ireland) Bill. JAMAICA LOAN BILL. The Duke of NEWCASTLE, in moving the second reading of this bill, said their lordships would recol lect that in the course of last year, while making a statement respecting the constitul ion of Jamaica, he said that in appointing Sir H. Barclay governor of the e 0141!, he felt convinced that it would be his en deaiioui'llb" obtain 'inch "ri, reform in the constitution as would prevent a recurrence of the misfortunes which had previously taken place. He stated at the same time that in the event of the affairs of the island remain ing satisfactory, the Government would guarantee a por tion of the debt, that is, they would give security, in order that the money might be raised at a lower rate of interest than the island could obtain, which was 6 or 64 per cent. The conditions having been fulfilled, the con stitution having been reformed, and the financial affairs of the island having been placed on a satisfactory footing, the Government had now brought forward this bill n fulfilment of their pledge.

MESSAGE FROM THE CROWN—THE WAR VOTE. The CHANCELLOR, of the EXCHEQUER appeared at the bar, and announced a message from her Majesty. The message having been brought up, was read at the table as follows : "Victoria Regina.—Her Majesty deeming it expedient to provide for any additional expenses that may arise in consequence of the war in which her Majesty is engaged with the Emperor of Russia, and relying on the loyalty, zeal, and affection of her faithful Commons, trusts that they will make provision accordingly." (Hear.) The CHANCELLOR of tho EXCHEQUER—Sir, I beg to move that her Majesty's most gracious Message be referred to a Committee of Supply. (Hear, hear.) The committee of supply stands for to-night, but I apprehend it is generally understood that it will not come on before Monday, and that her Majesty's Message will then be con sidered. Mr. DISRAELI—I am sure I may say that her Majesty may confidently rely that the House of Commons haie every disposition to furnish whatever aid her Majesty may require for the purpose of carrying on the war with effici ency and vigour ; but I trust that on Monday her Ma jesty's Ministers will bo able to assure the house that in the present state of affairs there will be an autumnal sit ting, and that her Majesty will be recommended graciously to call Parliament together before the end of the year. LUNATIC ASYLUMS (IRELAND). Mr. MONTGOMERY wished to know under what sys tem the works connected with the building of the district lunatic asylum at Sligo was at present carried on by the Board of Works Sir J. YOUNG replied that the works were being car ried on under the general act referring to lunatic asylums in Ireland. The asylum in question had been a very long time building it was true, but it would be completed and opened in October next. . THE FREE HOSPITAL INQUIRY. Lord D. STUART begged to inquire of tho Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he would have any objection to lay on the table of the house copies of the short-hand notes of the proceedings at the coroner's inquest lately held on the body of the child Richardson, who died after an operation in the Gray's Inn-road Free Hospital ? Lord PALMERSTON had no objection to the produc tion of any papers relating to the subject which were in the possession of the Government, or which could be obtained by an order of the house from any person who was liable to Rumor such order. But in this case no short-band wriptene4bee4 employedby the Government, end ho Tow ;tin;) 234 16-218 The proviso was accordingly added to the clause, and the clause, as amended, was agreed to. The other clauses up to clause 30, with the exception of clause 26, which was struck out, were agreed to without discussion. On clause 31, which specifies the declaration to be taken by candidates, first at the nomination, and secondly at the table, on taking the oaths and the seat, MI. V. SNIITH announced his intention again to take the sense of the committee on the retention of this clause, because he thought the terms of the declaration were so vague and uncertain that it would operate against the scrupulous man and the man of nice sense and strict honour, while it would have the effect of encouraging the malprac tices of the unscrupulous candidate (Heir, hear.) The words of the declaration could not be otherwise than un palatable to the man of honour, and therefore, after the close division of yesterday upon it, he thought, unless it, were withdrawn, he should be justified in again taking the sense of the house upon the question that it stand part of the bill. (Hear, hear.) The committee then divided, when there appeared— For the clause l2B Against it l2O-8 The clause was coneoquently adopted. Lord J. RUSSELL moved that the chairman report progress, and intimated that he proposed to proceed with the bill to-morrow. (Cries of " No, no.) Mr. IiALINS complained that it was most inconvenient to take au important bill like this, which affected every member of the house, and upon the mere principle of which the house was so nearly divided. Lord J. RUSSELL reminded the hon. and learned gen tleman that the bill affected not only members of that house, but the interest and character of the country. The bill had gone through a select committee, and through a committee of that house, and he thought at this late period of the session, and considering the necessity of sending it up immediately to the Lords, and that scarcely any com mittees were now sitting, it was not unreasonable to ask the house to proceed with it at a morning sitting. Mr. SPOONER objected to proceeding with an im portant public bill on a Saturday without notice. Many hon. gentlemen had other engagements which they could not put off. Admiral WALCOTT objected to taking the bill on a Saturday. Mr. CAYLEY could see no objection to proceeding on a Saturday at that period of the session. Mr. BRIGHT considered the objection of Mr. Spooner was unfounded. There had been ample notice, and if they really wished to pass the bill there could ho no valid ob jection to meeting for once on a Saturday. Mr. NE WDEGATE deprecated the hastening this this precipitately through the house—a bill that affected the character of every member of that house. Mr. V. SMITH was favourable to the Saturday sitting, but wished to know, if the bill passed through committee to-morrow, he intended to take the report on Monday, and the third reading on Tuesday, or when ? There ought to be ample time for consideration beforelthe third reading. He also wished to know what course the noble lord in tended to take as to the payment of travelling expenses and refreshment. Mr. AIURROUGH hoped the house would go on with the bill at the present sitting. Lord J. RUSSELL intimated that he intended to bring up two clauses, ono for allowing travelling expenses, and the other prohibiting refreshment tickets, and making the giving of refreshments bribery. He proposed to take the report as early next week as possible, and the third reading on Thur s d a y or F r id a y. Though this would not come exactly within the spirit of the rule passed by the House of Lords, he hoped the House of Lords, seeing that the Commons had used all due diligence to comply with their rule, would not insist upon it in reference to this bill, which, after all, seeing that•there were writs necessarily suspended until it passed, might fairly be regarded as a measure of emergency. He wished to add one word more. He could not allow this bill to be defeated, except by the decision of a majority of the house. If a majority decided that it should not pass, of course he could not resist, but he would push it to the utmost, and to nothing but a ma jority would he yield a bill which he considered a most im portant one. Lord GALWAY protested against the course taken by the noble lord, and said he should divide the house against the sitting this day. After a few words from Mr. HENLEY, urging that as the third reading was not to be taken till after Monday, there was no necessity for sitting this day, The house resumed. Lord J. RUSSELL then moved that the committee have leave to sit again this day. Lord GALWAY moved that the house at its rising adjourn till Monday. This was supported by Mr. Hlhlyard, Mr. Spooner, and Lord A. Vane-Tempest, and resisted by Lord J. Russell. The house divided— For sitting this day Against it Majority —Bo Mr. HENLEY gave notice that either on the report or on the third reading, he should take the opinion of the house on the declaration. Lord J. RUSSELL said he should take the report on Monday at 12; Mr. NE WDEGATE moved that the house at its rising adjourn till Monday, Lord J. RUSSELL said he did not attach much import ance to the house sitting on Monday morning. Theymight take it on Tuesday. Mr. NEWDEGATE said he should persevere in his motion. Lord J. RUSSELL—Then I had better take it on Mon day. (Cheers.) Sir J. PAKINGTON thought it extremely to be re gretted that on a question of this kind any bad feeling should arise en either side of the house. The noble lord must be aware, after the divisions they had had, that on one of the clauses remaining for discussion great difference of opinion existed, and it was desirable when the discus. sion took place there should be a full attendance. The ge neral expectation was, that this bill would be disposed of to-night. • The SPEAKER said the motion could not be disposed of as an amendment, but must be put on the question, aye or uo, whether the house would take the bill this day or not. The house then divided — Ayes ....... . . , 132 N oes 5l Majority ---81 Mr. NE WDEGATE said he was ready to divide again, if hon. members wished it. Mr. MALINS advised that members on that side of the house should not offer further opposition, but on the un derstanding that full opportunity would be giv en for dis cussing the remaining questions. Lord J. RUSSELL, in answer to a question, said that the third reeding of the bill would be Wren at an even* . .

Yesterday, in the Admiralty Court, the Russian ship Fama was condemned a lawful prize. Claims were put in with respect to the Frova, Argo, and Ager, which were ordered to'be amended.
