IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS—(YESTERDAY.) The LORD CHA.NCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at five o'clock. LAW REFORM. In reply to the Earl of DERBY, The LORD CHANCELLOR said it was the inten tention of the Government to proceed with the Testa mentary Jurisdiction and the Divorce Bills during the present session. He did not propose to bring in any measure this session with regard to the ecclesiastical courts, and as to the two bills referred to, it was his in tention to insert a provision to the effect that they should not come into operation before the Ist of January, and then not without three months' notice by an order In Council. _ _ _ THE BALTIC MAIL. Lord BEAUMONT wished to ask the Postmaster General, whether it was true, as had been stated in several of the public papers, that on the 9th of June the Baltic mail was "again too late," having reached Sheer ness 12 hours too late ? Viscount CANNING was happy to say that the statement was perfectly untrue. The Holyrood steamer had taken off a heavy mail, but it was the custom to continue forwarding supplementary mail bags until the post-office authorities were apprised that the ship had actually left port. The mail referred to wa s one of these supplementary bags, and would of cours e be for warded by the next mail. THE EXCHEQUER BONDS (6,000,000/.) BILL. Earl GRANVILLE moved the suspension of the standing orders with a view to this passing through all its stages. Lord MONTEAGLE was opposed to proceeding with such haste with so important a bill. E:rl GRANVILLE had no objection to postpone the bill until to-morrow. The Marquis of CLANRICARDE thought the Go vernment ought to explain whether the loan was neces sary, and if so, whether any other loan would be proposed during the present session?? • After some further discussion, the motion Was post ., lioned until to-morrow, when it was arranged the dis cussion should take place. SINGAPORE. The Earl of ALBEMARLE presented a petition from the Asiatic and European merchants, traders, and in habitants of Singapore, praying that a resident profes sional judge be appointed to that settlement, and that certain other ameliorations in the administration of justice be introduced. The noble earl then detailed some of the grievances which the petitioners complained of, and said he trusted our present reform ing Government would adopt means to redress them. Earl GRANVILLE said the subject was now under the consideration of the Board of Control. VANCOUVER'S ISLAND. Earl FITZWILLIAM presented a petition from the inhabitants of "Vancouver's Island, complaining that the Hudson's Bay Company, in whom the Government of the island at present vests, have neglected their duty in not taking proper steps to colonise the island, and pray ing for a legislative council, and that a governor may be appointed by the crown. This, he said, was a very remote dependency of the British Crown, but it was one which would probably hereafter he of great importance, for not only was there a large supply of coal in that island, but he had every reason to believe that it was the only coal to be found on the north-west coast of America. It was because he was desirous of seeing this island colonised that he had undertaken to present this petition, and he trusted that the serious attention of her Majesty's Government would be called to the subject. He did not know whether he was right in calling the attention of the noble duke (the Duke of Newcastle) to the subject, as the noble duke was no longer Secretary of the Colonies. The Duke of NEWCASTLE said be was quite aware of the importance which his noble friend rightly attached to Vancouver's Island. It was now of small compara tive importance only because of the few inhabitants at present located on it. The question affecting Van couver's Island were by no means new to him, for he had entered fully into the consideration of them before he ever anticipated that he should fill the office of Secre tary for the Colonies. The colonisation of that island had not advanced as much as he should wish. At the same time it must be borne in mind, when they looked on the proceedings of the Hudson's Bay Company, that they had laboured under great disadvantages in conse quence of the discovery of gold in California. Any one must see the difficulty of colonising under such circum stances in a cold climate like that of Vancouver's Island. He believed there were mineral advantages in Van couver's Island, and that immense importance attached to it in consequence of the great amount of coal of the most valuable description contained in it. He trusted that before the expiration of the company's charter they would make,due exertion, so that Government would be disposed to deal with them more favourably than at the present moment they might feel disposed to do. THE NEW SECRETARY AT WAR. The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH said, as allusion had been made to his noble friend being now Secretary at War, and no longer Secretary for the Colonies, he would put a question to the noble earl at the head of the Government respecting that office. His noble friend was aw'.re that at present, under the act of Queen Anne, two secretaries of state only could sit in the House of Commons, and that it was absolutely necessary that one should sit in the House of Lords. Now, undoubtedly, at the present moment they had two secretaries of state in that house, and no practical incon venience arose from the statute, but a great inconveni ence might arise if they were constituting a new Go vernment. If it were possible by law to place three secretaries of state in the House of Commons, that might facilitate the formation of a new Government. lie must say a bill ought to be introduced for the pur pose of enabling a third secretary of state to sit in the House of Commons, and he asked the noble earl if it was intended to bring in such a bill. The Earl of ABERDEEN said there was no intention at present to bring forward such a bill. The matter was fully considered, and there appeared to be some doubt. They took the proper opinions, and consulted the best authorities, and it appeared there was no reason to pro ceed by bill to effect that which had taken place, inas much as two sec re t ar i es o f sta t e rema i ne d i n the House of Commons, and the Queen, by her prerogative, if she thought proper, could place a fourth secretary of state in this house. Therefore he admitted with his noble friend, that he could conceive a case in which inconveni ence-might arise from the absence of power to have a third secretary of state to sit in the House of Commons, but he could only say that at present there was no in . convenience, and there was no intention at present to remedy the inconvenience that might arise. At the same time, he fully admitted with his noble friend that a case might arise in which inconvenience might be felt. It was a subject worthy of consideration. VACCINATION ACT AMENDMENT BILL. This bill was read a second time. PIPE SEWERS. On the motion of the Earl of HARROWBY returns were ordered of copies of any communication from the Genaral Board of Health, or of any reports from super intending inspectors of that board, made to the Secretary of State for the Home Department, in relation to any' representations from the chairman or officers of the Me tropolitan Commissioners of Sewers in respect to the operation of pipe sewers. RAILWAY AND CANAL TRAFFIC REGULA TION BILL. On the order of the day for the third reading of this bill, Lord LYNDHURST said he thought it only fair to insert a clause to limit the liability of railway companies, and he would propose it, if he thought he should have the slightest chance of carrying it. He wished to in troduce a clause rendering it competent for the Board of Trade, when they thought proper, to allow any railway -company to introduce such conditions in their carrying of goods as they considered reasonable and just. The noble lord who had charge of the bill did not entirely approve of that clause, but he had thrown upon the companies, in the first i ns t ance , th e d ec l ara ti on o f con ditions, and the Court of Common Pleas was to have jurisdiction to declare whether the conditions were rea sonable, but the consequence of that was that there would be litigation in the first place. The Earl of DERBY asked what was the intention of the clause. Lord STANLEY of ALDERLEY said the clause enabled the railway companies to make conditions as to what they should carry, and the terms. Lord CAMPBELL su g gested that the rules should be settled by t h e courts before rather than after litigation. After some further conversation, Lord STANLEY of ALDERLEY said that the clause was not his, and he should prefer the bill as it stood originally. As there seemed to be a wish to give some further consideration to the clauses, he had no ob jection to postpone the easing of th e bill until to-mor row, and to all ow the clauses to be printed before taking the next stage. Some suggestions with regard to the details were made by the Earl of Derby and Lord Redesdale, and g the bill was read a third ti me , on the understanding that if an y further discussion to o k p l ace, it should be on the question that the bill do pass. NUISANCES REMOV AL AND DIS EASES PRE VENTION BILL. On the report of the amendments of this bill, The Earl of CLANCARTY suggested that there were some omissions in the bill. The power for carrying it out by the local au thorities_ inlreland wasogiytenonlztroe town councils and boardislwoafy guardians.and Dundaik,Nw there were which were some towns, such as u municipal boroughs, but had no town councils, their local affairs being managed by co mmissioners for paving and lighting. He thought some provision should be made for such cases. The Earl of Sl3 i said that the best aut.korities, nc the secretary to the Poor- SPBooljr-RlaYw Commissioners and by town consulted, and they were loafvroßpionsaiftrodnislreland, discharged posed by the bill would be be . that the duhtaidesbiemen councils and boards of guardians. were no town councils, the duty would de vo beards of guardians. In cases where hr e on th t e h r e e The report was then agreed to. DUBLIN PORT BILL. This bill was a read a third time, and passed. The Income Tax (No. 2) Bill, the Church Buildings „Acts Amendment Bill, and the Industrial and Provi llertc Societies Bill, severally passed through committee. , , Their lordships adjourned at 20 minutes past 7 o'clock. -C•iIiOUSE OF COMMONS--(YESTERDAY.) ' .:. 11 , :;e SPEAKER took the chair at four o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. 44.: The following bills were read a third time and passed Ardrossan and Glasgow and South-Western Railways, Camden Town Cemetery, Cork and Waterford Railway, Inverness and Nairn Railway, Horncastlo and Kirkatead Junction Railway, Leominster and Kington Railway, London and North-Western Railway (Flaydon-square, &c.), Newport and Pillgwenlly Waterworks, Swinnerton's Name, Thirsk and Yarm Road, Tralee and Killarney Rail way. The following bills wore considered and ordered to be read a third time :—Caledonian Railway (Wishaw and Coitnese Railway, &c.) Bill, Selkirk and Galashiels Rail• way, Stockport, Disley, and Whaley Bridge Railway. PETITIONS. - Petitions were presented by Mr. HENRY BERKELEY, from Bristol, in favour of the ballot ; by Mr. DEEDES, from Kent, against the Drainage of Lands Bill ; by Mr. DUN LOP, from a place in Scotland, in favour of reformatory schools ; by Colonel BL AIR, from the parishioners of Frome, complaining of the conduct of the Vicar of Frome in reference to the solemnis ition of marriages between dissenters ; by Mr. FITZROY, from the College of Surgeons, against the graduates of the London University BilL NEW WRIT. On tho motion of Mr. HATTER, a new writ was ordered for Aforpeth in the room of Sir G. Grey, who has accepted the office of Secretary of State for the Colonies. REVOLT AT SHANGHAI. Mr. HUME asked whether any information had been received from Shanghai of an attack by the English and American forces on the Imperialists on the 4th day of April, 1854 ; and how far the British neutrality has been compromised by that and other acts of British subjects. Sir C. WOOD had received no intimation of the kind ; but if such an attack had taken place, it would be commu nicated to the Foreign-office, and not the Board of Control. linlimmi 2,14 A "21 S V L. ~~ ~~:~~ )-faciNi4iS REVENUES OF INDIA. Mr. HITME wished to ask the President of the Board of Control, whether there are any other accounts of the re venue' of India, than those parliamentary papers 251 and 272 of this session, to be laid before the house previous to his statement of the Indian budget, and if he can now fix the time for that statement. . . Sir C. WOOD said no other papers were at present in his possession which could be laid on the table of the house previous to his making the statement, which he hoped to be able to do at an early period. MORNING SITTINGS. Mr. DISRAELI wished to call attention to the subject of morning sittings. He observed that a great deal of im portant business fixed for morning sittings, but he was not aware that any public notification of these appointments having been made. The house would recollect that there was nothing more inconvenient than these morning sittings, and nothing could justify them, ex cept the lateness of the session, and the pressure of public business. Now, it could not be said that this was a late period of the s,ssion, or that there was any pub lic business before the house of a pressing nature, while on th other hand, in the present aspect of European affairs it would be more satisfactory to the public that the house should remain sitting, rather than that the session should be brought to an early close. He; therefore, wished to know whether there would be any objection to postpone these morning sittings until the Government had been reconstructed, and the noble lord who was the leader of the house, should be in his place to come to some arrange ment on the subject ? (Hear, hear.) Sir C. WOOD could only remind the right hon. gentle man that the bills which had been fixed for morning sittings were not Government measures, but in the charge of private members, and to them he mast address his appeal. Mr. DISRAELI said a most important Government measure, namely, the Marine Consolidation Bill, had been fixed for a morning sitting. Mr. HUME wanted to know, after what had passed, whether or no there was to be a morning sitting tomor row ? Sir C. WOOD said the hon. members who had charge of the bills fixed for to-morrow were not in the house, and it would be a breach of courtesy to put off the bills in their absence. SPANISH POSTAL TREATY. Mr. OLTVEIRA asked the Secretary of the Treasury whether the negociations for a postal treaty with Spain for a reduction of charge have led to any result, and if there was any objection to lay the correspondence upon the table of the house. Mr. WILSON replied that the negotiations for such a treaty were still pending. PUBLIC REVENUE AND CONSOLIDATED FUND CHARGES BILL. On the motion of the CITA.NCELLOR of the EXCFIE QUER,, the order of tho day for the third reading of this bill was discharged, and the bill was ordered to be recom mitted. STAMP DUTIES On the question of going into committee on the Stamp Duties Bill, Mr. HIMIE deprecated the bill as regarded certain enactments respecting bills of internal revenue and fo reign bills of exchange. He considered if this bill passed, and they laid a tax on foreign bills of exchange, it would do a vast mischief to the commerce of this country, which was the depot for the money trade as well as the produce of the world. He should therefore move, when the house went into committee, to strike out the clause which would impose any tax whatever on foreign bills of exchange. Mr. J. M'GREGOR objected to the differences made in the schedules of this bill. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said as this was a bill for amending the stamp duties, he thought it would be for the convenience of all parties if the house first went into committee, and then discuss the clauses of the bill. (Hear.) The SPEAKER then left the chair, and the house went into committee on the bill. On clause 3, Mr. HUMS said this was the clause he objected to, and on which he intended to take the sense of the committee. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said it would be much better to wait till they came to the schedules. Mr. GLYN said, though he might perhaps be inclined to say that all taxes wore injurious to commerce, yet at the present time he thought it would not be expedient to ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer to dispense with the revenue which would be derived from the tax on foreign bills of Exchange. If this tax were to operate on the foreign relations in commerce of this country, he should be very careful to sanction it. But where could be the risk to our commerce of charging ls. per cent. which this bill would impose on foreign bills of exchange ? (Hear.) He should support the clause as it now stood. Mr. MASTERMAN expressed his dissent from the prin ciples of this clause. Mr. W. BROWN disapproved of the stamp on foreign bills. The amount of taxation proposed to be imposed by this measure was larger iu fact than it appeared at first sight. Every transaction would necessitate at least three bills, and consequently three stamps. Thus instead of a tax of ls. per cent., one of 3s. per cent. would virtually be imposed. Mr. WILSON said that this was far from being a new tax, or a very great addition to existing taxation. At present all bills drawn in the United Kingdom upon firms out of the United Kingdom—representing of course no small part of our export trade—were subject to rates of duty much higher than those in the present measure. Thus, a bill above 3001. and under 500/. was chargeable with a stamp duty of 45., whereas by the present bill the duty varied from ls. to ls. Bd. ; in fact, it was not until the high amount of 3,0001. was reached that the duty proposed in this measure equalled what was imposed under the existing law. It was, therefore, no new element in taxation to stamp foreign bills of exchange, and in making a great reduction in the stamp upon the whole mass of bills circulating in this country, it seemed only a reasonable thing to ask that all transactions, as far as pos sible, should contribute to our taxation. In former times there might be some reason for exempting bills drawn out of England from duty, on account of the difficulty of hav ing tho bills stamped. Now, however, the introduction of adhesive stamps had put an end to difficulty in that case. In fact there was no reason whatever for exempt ing foreign bills, if a stamp duty on instruments of that class were to be imposed. He asked the committee to recollect to what precision and facility of accounts the in troduction of bills had led. A periodical settlement was arrived at, and a bill drawn for the balance. This bill could ho discounted, and thus a man was enabled to use his capital more constantly, and so carry on business at a less profit than could formerly be done. Why should not this bo extended to the small tradesman as well as a large capi talist? At present the stamp duty utterly prevented it, but the more moderate scale fixed by the present measure would put the matter on a proper basis. Again, it had been held out that this measure would destroy London as a money market. The committee must be aware that stamp duties of this nature existed at Paris and at Amster dam, and yet those cities were second only to London as money markets. But he believed that those who enter tained any fear upon the subject wore a comparative few, for memorials in its favour had been received from the leading men of London, Manchester, and Glasgow. Mr. J. B. SMITH, though he thought some parts of the measure under consideration deserved commendation, dis approved of taxing foreign bills. Mr. M`GREGOR thought that if a commodity were taxed at all, it ought to be taxed irrespective of its origin, and that a bill of exchange, if subject to any stamp duty, ought to bear that duty, wherever it might happen to be drawn. Mr. T. BARING thought that every member of the committee would agree that if there was no evil to com plain of and no remedy to be administered, it was unwise to disturb existing fiscal arrangements. The evil com plained of was, that bills of exchange purporting to be foreign bills were really drawn in England, and thus were valueless in the hands of innocent holders. Now, this evil might be met by allowing such bills to be stamped as inland bills, if it were made out satisfactorily that the holders were innocent. But the measure under considera tion would not meet the evil. Those who would issue in land bills as foreign ones would not be prevented by the present measures. The hon. gentleman (Mr. Wilson) had stated that duties like those under consideration were levied in France • but it was quite otherwise in Prussia and Austria. He thought that now we had removed all restrictions from commerce it was strange to propose a new restriction on commercial pursuits. Mr. WILLIAMS would have no objection to see all stamps on bills of exchange abolished. But as he under stood the matter it stood thus :—ln order to reduce the rate of bills of exchange generally it was necessary to put a duty upon foreign bills. This being so he had no objec tion to the measure. (Hear, hear.) The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER thought it desirable to remind the committee of the meanin of the vote whi c h th e y now ca ll e d upon to g i ve, f or h e th oug h t th a t the observations of hon. members tended to complicate the matter. This was not a new tax, it was the equalisation of an existing duty, and the removal of an exemption which ought not to exist. He went on this principle iu the first place, that all trade, whether between one country and another, or between thecountry and the towns, was but thetebirat.slsnso very d seeo e nd place he w en t upon thi s o th er pr i nc i p l e, oils desirable—not for fiscal o bj ec t s on ly—th a t the throu gh the means off bileror exchang e s h ou ld b e wor k e d ra to do this, it was desirables that t exchange. e u N o o h w i g, brate in order e f duty b on Baring), said t ntl be reduc e d.

In l a t e times the House of Commons had r , m t h o e v y e d w e 6 rhe now a°. kles upo n the foreign trade of this country, about to remove impediments to the home trade.

If the circum stances, diminish Government ossible for him to persevere of exchange it would be imp mittee chose to negative this clause relating to foreign bills THE SUN, LONDON, TUESTJAY EVENING, JUNE 13, 1854. with the great and important change which he proposed with reference to inland bills of exchange. Mr. J. B. SMITH asked the right hon. gentleman what amount he expected to raise upon foreign bills. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER did not believe that any man in England could give a reliable estimate, but it was calculated that the foreign bills drawn upon this country amounted to about 200,000,0001. per annum, and the duty would be a shilling per cent. Mr. SANDARS objected to the proposed tax upon fo reign bills. Mr. JAMES MACGREGOR insisted that the tax would be equal to 2. per cent. upon the bills drawl. Ho advised the committee to take i lesson from the United States, and apply their free system to bills of exchange. Mr. HUME said he, for one, was prepared to do that. Mr. MUNTZ was decidedly in favour of the proposed al terations with regard to inland bills, but he objected in tote to placing a tax upon foreign bills. True, the amount was small, but it would be none the less onerous. The committee then divided, when there appeared— For the clause 173 Against it The clause was accordingly agreed to, as were also elauses from 5 to 8 inclusive. Mr. VANCE moved to leave out clause 9, relating to ex emption from receipt stamp duty by letters acknowledging receipt of bills, &c., repealed. After a short conversation the clause was postponed. Clauses 10 and 11 were agreed to. Mr. HADFIELD moved to add the following words to Clause 11: " And, further, the duty charged in the said act of last session (16 and 17 Vic. c. 63) on conveyance in Eng land and Ireland, and charter, disposition, or contract con taining the first original constitution of feu and ground an nual rents in Scotland, in consideration of any annual sum payable in perpetuity, or for any indefinite period, whether for farm-rent, feu-duty, ground-annual, or otherwise, shall be abolished, and in lieu or substitution for such abolished duty there shall be a duty on the same scale as on a lease or tack of any lands, tenements, hereditaments, or herit able subjects at a yearly rent, without any sum of money by way of fine, premium, or grassum paid for the same, or, where the same shall be with such fine, premium, or gras sum, and also of a yearly rent amounting to 201. and up wards, then both the ad valorem, duties payable for a lease in consideration of a fine only, and for a lease in considera tion of a rent only of the same amount ; and, further, that in computing the rent chargeable with conveyance duty by the said last-mentioned act, a duo allowance and deduction shall be made from such rent for any original rout or rents that the premises conveyed shall be subject or liable to." The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said this alteration in the law would go the whole foundation of the duties on conveyances. There must be a distinction drawn between leaseholds and conveyances of freeholds, and al though there might be isolated cases of injustice, he yet could not consent to alter the ad valorem, principle upon which the existing duties were founded. Mr. BRIGHT argued the case as one affecting the work ing classes, upon whom it inflicted great injustice, particu larly those living in the district of Manchester. The case was simply this—a man who purchased a piece of land on lease for 999 years, at a rental of 100/. per annum, paid a duty of 10s. ; but the man who purchased a precisely simi lar piece of land at the same rental, but without any de fined term, paid a duty of 12/.103. Now that was a great injustice, because the tax was professed to be levied ac cording to the value of the land which was the same in one case as the other. Mr. G. BUTT contended that it was necessary to pre serve this distinction between leaseholds and freeholds. Mr. KIRK said the existing law operated most unjustly in Ireland, where at least an eleventh of the whole land was held upon renewable leases at small rentals. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER confessed himself ready to take the case of Ireland into consideration, but he could not make any change to meet the exceptional case contemplated by this amendment. As for the present arrangement of the duties prejudicing the working or in dustrious classes, the alteration of last year was made ex pressly for their benefit, and it was only estates of more value than 3501. that could possibly derive any advantage for this proposed loss to the Exchequer. Mr. HADFIELD said it was quite absurd to keep up a distinction between real and personal property. That dis tinction was the cause of great and numerous anomalies. Mr. MULLINGS said that, without giving any opinion as to the propriety of the distinction, they must, as long as they recognised different kinds of tenure, keep up a dis tinction between freehold and chattle interests. Jr. DUNLOP was so well pleased with the concession made last year that he felt repugnant to ask for more, but the grounds on which the present concession was asked were well founded, that he hoped the right hon. gentleman would at least consider the question. It was natural for all lawyers to wish to see the distinction kept up, but what was desired was not to do away with the dis tinction, but to lay on the tax, not with regard to the feudal tenure, but with regard to the substantial interest of the property. (Hear.) Mr. BROTHERTON said that the distinction between real and personal property produced great anomalies. The difficulty was to find the proper remedy. Mr. BRIGHT said he would take the opinion of the right hon. gentleman (the Chancellor of the Exchequer) on a matter of fiscal arrangement sooner than, perhaps, that of any other member of the house. He certainly had more confidence in the way in which he proposed his taxes than in any of his colleagues in any other matter. (Laughter.) He had often stated that in private, and he now stated in public, and he would not worry the right hon. gentleman on this point were he not convinced, that if the right hon. gentleman knew all the facts, instead of leaving it to his hon. friend to propose this amendment, the right hon. gen tleman would propose it himself in the first instance. He begged, therefore to press on the right hon. gentleman to consider the question. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that it was difficult to resist the hon. member for Manchester, he was so complimentary. (Laughter.) He said that the clause appeared to him to be one of which it was most dif ficult to understand the effect. But he would be perfectly ready to consider whether something could not be done to frame an equitable arrangement. (Hear.) Mr. BRIGHT was quite satisfied that if the right hon. gentleman understood the real hardship of the case, he would agree with his hon. friend. He would suggest to his 113 n. friend not to press his motion. Did the right hon. gentleman intend to postpone the clause ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER—CertainIy not. Tile clause was a good one. But he would consider the other point. Mr. HADFIELD withdrew his amendment, but gave notice that he would propose it at a subsequent stage. The clause was then agreed to. Clauses 12, J 3, and 14, were agreed to. . . On clause 15, which empowers the commissioners of In land Revenue to require an affidavit, Mr. HENLEY said it would put the party to expense. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that the commissioners of Inland Revenue, on looking at the instrument, might have a knowledge amounting to cer tainty that the true consideration for which it was granted was suppressed, and it was in this case only that they could call for an affidavit, this was the object with which the clause was framed. Mr. HENLEY said that ho merely referred to the ex pense of requiring the affidavit. It was not necessary to send the parties to a solicitor. Any person could count the number of words in the instriment. Tho SOLICITOR-GENERAL said the clause, as it was proposed, was more merciful and less costly to the party than if the suggestion of the right hon. gentleman were adopted. After a conversation, in which Mr. Mullings, Mr. G. Butt, and Mr. Phinn took part, the clause, as amended, was agreed to, as was clause 16. On clause 17, _ _ Mr. VA NCE complained of some peculiar burden to which tho Dublin pawnbrokers were subject, under an old act of Geo. 111. Mr. WILSON said it was quite true they had to pay 1001. iu Irish money in order to carry on their trade ; but they did not pay this to the Imperial exchequer, but to the city of Dublin, which had chosen, instead of rating the inhabitants generally, to lay a tax of 1001. a year on pawnbrokers. (Laughter.) The pawnbrokers of Dublin did not complain of the stamp duty, but were grateful for its reduction by one-half. The Government had thought they might reduce the duty in Dublin to the same amount as was paid in provincial towns. The clause was then agreed to, as was clause 18. On clause 19, Mr. VANCE objected to that part of the clause which gave the public the opportunity of going to the stamp office and claiming the discount on stamps to the amount of 51. The result of this would be to injure the sellers of stamps, who would hardly find it. worth while to keep their shops open. - The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said the reduction of the limit at which discount might be claimed had been made with reference to the decreased amount of the stamp duties. It would be much better to leave this matter to be settled between the Government and the sellers of stamps. The clause was then agreed to, as wore the remaining clauses. Mr. PHINN moved a new clause—" That every instru ment liable to stamp duty shall be admitted in evidence in any criminal proceeding, although it may not have the stamp required by law impressed ou or affixed thereto. Agreed to. _ _ Oii the schedule, Mr. WMALION said he had given notice of an amend ment for reducing the stamps to Id. and 2d. on bills not exceeding 101. and 201. respectively ; but as he understood the Chancellor of the Exchequer was willing to allow tholie small stamps for bills of 51. and 101. respectively, he would not press his amendment. Bills under 51. were at present liable to several restrictions, with regard to other matters, and he hoped to see those removed. Mr. T. BARING said the result of these alterations would be largely to increass the number of small bills, which would add by so much to the circulation. For every small purchase of 51. or 101. bills would b 3 given and would be discounted. After trying to bring all our trans actions to cash limits, he doubted the propriety of the step now taken. It would largely increase the number of small bills in circulation, and would operate injuriously to the trade of the country. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he heard with regret the opinion of the hon. gentleman, but he did not believe that these small bills were to be regarded as an addition to the circulation. It was not at all with the view of seeking relief from the fetters of a gold circu lation that this change had been proposed, but solely to relieve tradesmen from the evils of their present system of open credits, and to substitute for them certain and fixed payments. Mr. VANCE said he should certainly take the sense of the house against the proposed ld. and 2d. bill stamps. After a few words from Mr. FRENCH, _ Mr. VANCE, on being asked, declined to press his amendment; and the schedules were gone through and agreed to. The house then resumed. _ _ Mr. VANCE asked if any reduction was contemplated in the stamps on agreements for submission to arbitration ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he had received no representation on the subject, and he did not mean to propose any reduction in the present bill. granted to England and Wales, in relief of the county rates for the maintenance of convicts, while the whole sum granted to Ireland had only been 46,0001. In Ireland, too, no expenses had been allowed to witnesses out of the Con solidated Fund, except in those cases which were called " crown prosecutions." He thought that the Irish people had a right to demand a committee of inquiry into the whole subject. The vote was agreed to. 17,3061. for the inspection of the prisons of the United Kingdom.—Agreed to. 371,9331. for the Government prison and convict esta blishments at horse. Sir J. PAIINGTON wished to know whether, in con sequence of the adoption of th e s y s t em o f pena l serv i tu d e, the Government intended to make any alteration in the period of separate confinement with each person sentenced to transportation had to undergo. Viscount PALMERSTON said that the period of sepa rate confinement was formerly one year and sometimes more. It had, however, appeared to him from information he had received from persons engaged in the management of prisons that that long period was likely to be injurious both to the mental and the bodily health of the persons by whom it was undergone. (Hear, hear.) It had therefore been reduced to nine months as the maximum, but in cases in which from the peculiar construction of the individual even that period was likely to lead to any permanent in jury, a discretionary power had been allowed to shorten the time. There were two very opposite opinions held by persons employed in the management of prisons with re spect to the separate system. Some held that it was almost invariably attended with the most beneEcial effects, that it afforded time for reflection and opportrinities for exhor tation to reform ; and that, except in cases of weakly per sons, the effect was universally good. Others again thought that it threw too great a strain upon the mind. (Hear.) He (Lord Palmerston) believed that the truth lay between the two ; and that to persons of strong constitution the period of separate confinement often proved most salutary. Mr. HENLEY asked if the noble lewd could lay before the public the documents upon which he had founded the opinion he had just expressed? Lord PALMERSTON said it would be difficult to give the grounds upon which he had arrived at the decision he had stated ; for he had come to that conclusion, to a great extent, upon the verbal communications which he had had with persons in charge of the different prisons. The plan adopted was to subject the convict first to separate confine ment in which he had little communication with the offi cers and none with the rest of the inmates. Next, he was associated with the other prisoners, with whom he was now allowed some intercourse, and lastly ho was sent to Port land or some other place where he could be employed on the public works. In county prisons, if I )roperly conducted there should boa certain part arranged. in separate cells, in which the criminal could hold comm nnication with the officers of the prison, the chaplain, or Vile person employed in teaching him a trade. But there should be another part in which the prisoners could be associated together; and there should be a discretionary power in the governor as to the period at which each person should be removed from the one part of the prison to the other. Mr. HENLEY believed that public opinion had of late been undergoing a considerable change in the direction pointed at by the noble lord; but he thought that the per sons on whose communications the noble lord had acted, ought not to shrink from making a public report for the information of those on whom the responsibility of sen tencing persons to imprisonment devolved. Sir J. PAKINGTON concurred in the views of the noble lord, and asked how long the now plan had been acted upon. Lord PALMERSTON—Since last autumn. Mr. PALK asked whether the same system was pursued at Dartmoor as at Pontonville? Lord PALMERSTON said that persons were sent to Dartmoor who were not strong enough for the public works. He believed that the separate system was an essen tial part of the reformatory process, provided that it was not carried too far. Mr. MACARTNEY said the statement of the noble lord would be read with great alarm in Ireland. Mr. NEWDEGATE called the attention of the Govern ment to a case in which a notorious malefactor had been released from prison on the understanding that be was to be received in some person's employment. The man, how ever, did not stop in that employment for more than three or four weeks, and there was too much reason to fear that he had relapsed into his former licentious habits. Ho (Mr. Newdegate) wished, therefore, to ask the noble lord what regulations had been adopted to obtain some security that convicts released under similar' circumstances should re main in their employment for some given period ? Lord SEYAWUR reminded the committee that they were told last year that transportation bad ceased, but he had been astonished to find when looking at the estimate that whereas the sum asked last year in respect of tran sportation was only 69,5181., the present vote was for 92,765/. Ou the other hand, supposing that transporta tion had ceased, it might reasonably be expected that the expenses of establishments at home would be increased, but the votes showed a decrease, last year being 407,0001,, and the present 371,0001. The figures being so opposite to what might bo expected, ho shouid be glad of a few words in explanation from the noble lord, as he thought that so momentous a change as was now taking place in our sys tem of banishment ought to be fully understood by the house. Sir J. PAKINGTON wished also to put another ques tion. Ho desired to know how the present remnant of transportation was carried on. It seemed that a certain portion of prisoners were transported, and it was desirable that the principle should be understood ou which the selection was made. _ Lord PALMERSTON said that when a prisoner was released it was of course difficult to take any positive security that he would find employment. Sometimes an application was made for a pardon, which was granted to a prisoner whose offence was not serious, on con dition that his family would find employment for him. Of course Government could only go upon the representations which were made in such inquiries as the circumstances of tho case afforded. When a pardon was granted all control over the discharged prisoner was at an end. But in case of a ticket of leave, there was a bold over tho party released, for if he misconducted himself the very condition on which he was released was broken—for the ticket of leave was granted on the proviso that he should be liable on misconduct to be called back again to complete his term of penal servitude. He (Lord Palmerston) was glad to state that out of the considerable number who had been released, a very small proportion had been guilty of misconducting themselves, and in those cases means had at once been taken of bringing the parties back to the public works from which they had been sent. With regard to the question of tho noble lord (Seymour) the excess of the pre sent estimate arose principally from the increased price of provisions abroad in Australia. There was, however, every reason to think that the substitution of the present system of imprisonment for the old system of transportation would tend much to decrease the expense of prisoners. It would of course necessitate an increase in the accommodation, or rather the means, of lodging prisoners. With regard to the system of transportation still existing a certain number of prisoners—about 900—were proposed to be sent to Austra lia in the present year. Those were selected who were thought likely to be most useful in the colony. The selec tion was not made on the ground of the offences which were committed by the parties. Capt. SCOBELL remarked that the salaries for last year were but 60,0004., while this year they were 71,0001 al though the number of convicts was 3,000 l ess. " Mr. HENLEY said it appeared from the statement of the noble lord (Palmerston) that all the best of the prison ers were sent abroad and all the greatest rogues left in Eng land and then turned loose on society. He should like to know how many of these rogues were so turned loose ; as 9,0001. was charged for them it could be no small number. Mr. FITZROY said that in the course of last year 1,194 prisoners were discharged, and out of this large number it had only been found necessary to revoke the tickets of leave of three. The item of 9,000/. rose in this way—it was thought desirable to give the persons discharged the means of returning to their native place, and also enough to purchase necessary clothing. During their term of im prisonment a certain portion of their earnings was put by for them according to their conduct. Thus, for the first class, 9d. a week; for the second, 6d. ; and for the third, 3d. per week was retained. This money was given to them upon their discharge in order that they might not come upon the world totally unprovided for. Notice has been taken of the increase of salaries in the vote. This arose from a reason to which reference had already been made— the increased price of food and other commodities in Aus tralia. In answer to Mr. HENLEY, Mr. FITZROY said that in a case where transportation for seven years had been awarded, three years' penal servi tude was considered equivalent—a conditional ticket only being given at the end of that time for the remainder of the term. Mr. SPOONER observed an entryin theestimates under the head special services, in these words " Provision for Roman catholic priests , 5501 ." He wished to ask an ex planation of this, and to know what these special services were. Also, as this was a perfectly new vote, he should like to know if it was to be a continuous one. Lord PALMERSTON—I suppose the hon. gentleman wants really to know whether Catholic priests are to be allowed in prisons. (Mr. Spoouer shook his head in dis sent.) W e ll, then, all that is to be said is that the 5501. is for Catholic priests who are attending convicts in catho lic gaols. Mr. SPOONER wished to know whether the vote refer red to Government prisons only ? Lord PALMERSTON replied that the estimate, was for the attendance of priests Upon koman catholic prisoners in Government prisons. Mr. SPOONER thought that answer very unsatisfac tory. (A laugh.) If Roman Catholic priests were to be paid, why not the ministers of other dissenting sects? A man had already a right to send for the minister, whatever sect he belonged, but the minister was not to be paid. (Laughter, and ironical cheering.) This was, in fact, pay ing for what the Sovereign declared in her coronation oath to be a blasphemous, false, and a dangerous deceit. He knew no reason why he should say more on the subject. (Laughter.) Lord PALMERSTON said, though he might not be so vehement a Protestant as the hon. gentleman opposite, he flattered himself he was as sincere an one. If violent speeches in that house, if hard words and cutting off of estimates, could convert all their fellow-subjects, he should join with the hon. gentleman, and vote for his motion ; but, unfortunately, neither the hon. gentleman's efforts, nor his, if he were to join him, could have the effect that ho desired. And, therefore, as it happened that they had a large propo r ti on of their countrymen who were Catholics, ho thought it better to treat their religion with respect, and to give to those who were of that faith the means of becoming better Christians than they might happen to be in the condition to which they were reduced. The hon. gentleman was mistaken in supposing that the principle on which this vote was founded was new, because the system had been in practice for several years at Millbank. At Millbank there was a regular allowance to a Catholic priest for attending the convicts. The convicts on arriving declared themselves whether they were Catholic or Protes tant. Those who were Catholics were regularly attended by the Catholic priests, who performed divine (service t o them on Sundays, Good Fridays, and Christmas days. The priests attended once a week in ministration on the male prisoners, and once a week in ministration on the female prisoners. At Millbank also, when a convict was ill, so as to show that he ought to have religious consolation, if he was a Catholic, the priest was sent for to give him mini stration. That system was established before his ti me , and he thought it a good one, and it was his intention that it should be extended to all the Government prisons, and for this purpose an additional vote was proposed to the house in the estimates for this year. It did not occur to him that the Protestant succession or the throne was likely to be in danger by this vote. (Laughter.) H e could not seriously deal with the alarm of the bon. gentle man. He was not of opinion that they should wait always till a convict wished to have a priest, and that then the priest should come at his own cost. In the first place, the man who most wanted spiritual assistance was the man who was least likely to ask for it. What was the object they were aiming at by their prison discipline ? It was not mere punishment : it was a combination of punishment with reformation. They wanted to avail themselves of the period during which the man was confined to give a new turn to his thoughts, to discipline him with ideas and feelings, which probably never entered his mind before. They wished to turn him out at the end of his period of confinement a bettor man, and less likely to be dangerous to the community. How were they to do it ? The Pro testant had the ministrations of his clergyman, but the Catholic could not advantageously receive the ministra tions of a clergyman who was not of his own faith. They could not expect that the ministration of a Protestant cler gyman would have great effect on the mind of a Catholic convict any more than they could expect that the minis tration of a Catholic clergyman could have great effect on a Protestant. If the hon. member for Warwickshire were to be attended by a Catholic priest he did not suppose that he would derive much advantage from it. They wanted to get at the mind of the man, and they must employ some body who could reach it. They must, therefore, employ the clergyman of the man's own persuasion. The system was introduced by Sir G. Grey, and under it a Catholic was not at liberty to refuse attending Catholic worship ; he, like a Protestant, must attend divine worship conducted by his own clergyman. If a Protestant wished to turn Catholic, or a Catholic wished to turn Protestant, he had a fortnight for reflection, and then he acted according to his ultimata de cision • but a Catholic priest did not come int o con t ac t w i t h a Protestant, and therefore the hon. member need not be alarmed that our prisons would be turned into places for converting Protestants to Catholicism. But he was sure the house would feel that our prisons were not to be used for the purpose of turning Catholics into Protestants. That was not the purpose for which prisons were established. He could not persuade himself that the house would feel any doubt that such a provision as that which they now asked for was a proper one. What they wanted was to give men who had committed crime, who had been sen tenced to punishment for those crimes, while undergoing that sentence, an opportunity to have their minds im proved, to give them a sense of right and wrong, and that could only be done by giving them the opportunity of re ligious instruction from some minister of religion whose doctrine was their own, and who therefore could appeal to those feelings which their nature or their education might have implanted in their minds (Cheers.) Mr. SCHOLEFIELD regarded the proposition of his hon. friend as dictated by narrow and bigoted views. He was willing to pay for chaplains of the Church of England, the richest in the country, while he refused to give any thing to the priests of the poorest. Mr. NE WDEGATE supported the amendment on the ground that every concession to Rome was an encourage ment to the aggressions of Rome. If Romanist chaplains were admitted into our prisons, justice demanded that all dissenters ought to be placed upon the same footing. To accept this proposition would, in fact, be to sanction the erection of another Established Church. Mr. DRUMMOND thought the vote ill-advised. Mr. ADDERLEY approved of the amendment, because the vote had not been Justified by sound principle. Mr. CROSSLE f opposed the vote on the ground that the State ought not to pay any sect whatever for religious instruction. Mr. HO tiSFALL could not on principle consent to the proposed vote, because it involved the teaching of error. It, moreover, involved a violation of theconstitution. And he did not see how those who consented to this grant could refuse to endow the Roman Catholic priesthood. Mr. W. J. FOX eulogised the religious zeal and moral qualities of the Roman Catholic clergy; and expressed sorrow at see'ng hon. members of the same persuasion striving to obtain a miserable pittance of public money for their own purposes. His own principles pledged him to oppose every attempt to bestow the public money for religious purposes ; and, therefore, ' he should support the amendment, though he should do so with regret. After a few words from Mr. J. BALL, Sir J. PAKINGTON adulated the necessity of pro viding spiritual instruction for the inmates of our gaols, but said it could only be given upon one of two principles. It should be given either through a chaplain of the estab lished religion, or the gaol should be thrown open to all sects. But the proposal of the Home Secretary did neither the one nor the other. It had not the merit of toleration, inasmuch as it benefited only one sect, and was evidently the result of pressure. Under these circumstances he should support the amendment, but if the vote had been for the spiritual instruction of those prisoners who did not belong to the Church of England, he should have assented to it. Mr. HADFIELD vindicated the principle of the State paying no religious sect whatever. Mr. LUCAS, alluding to the objections of Nonconfor mists to receive money from the State in return for spiri tual instruction, road returns relative to several prisons, which ho contended showed that if they did not receive the money neither did they perform the work. The Roman Catholics and the Church of England discharged a duty, but the Nonconformists did nothing. Besides the Church of England there was, therefore, nobody to perform the service but the Roman Catholics ; and, performing the work, they naturally asked the noble lord, the Home Sec retary, for the payment. With respect to Mr. Spooner's amendment, he contended that the hon. member did not carry out his own principles, inasmuch as he only proposed to strike out one item of payment to Roman Catholic chaplains, whilst the vote included half-a•dozen others. Mr. MILES said the vote might be small, but it in volved a great principle—the principle of establishing Roman Catholic chaplains in Government prisons in Eng land Tbis was a Protestant question, and he trusted it would be so dealt with by all classes of Protestants. Mr. MIALL briefly addressed the house, amidst loud cries of " Divide." Mr. SPOONER, in reply, defended himself from the charge of having used " hard words." He was aware that there were other grants to Roman Catholic priests; but this beinc , a new vote, he felt it ri g ht t o ma k e a s t an d upon it. Illear, hear.) His simple object in opposing it WRY to raise a Protestant voice in that house. (Hear, hear.) He believed that to vote a sum for the propaga tion of the Roman Catholic religion would be a national sin. (Laughter.) The committee then divided. For the amendment Against it 136 —22 Mr. SCHOLEFIELD inquired whether be could bring on his amendment to further reduce the vote by the amount of the salaries of the chaplains and the assistant chaplains. Mr. BOUVERIE said he could not. By the practice of the committee, when an amendment of this kind was car ried, the smaller sum was considered to have been voted. The CHAIRMAN then reported progress. EXCISE DUTIES (SUGAR) BILL. This bill was read a second time. LEASING POWERS (IRELAND) BILL. This bill was read a second time. TENANTS COMPENSATION (IRELAND) BILL. On the motion for the second reading of this bill, Sir J. YOUNG could not assent to the principle of this bill, and therefore must oppose the second reading. Mr. MAGUIRE thought this matter ought fairly to be discussed, together with the other bills which had been read a second time. He proposed that this measure also should be read a second time pro forma, and then the whole matter could be discussed in committee. Lord PALMERSTON said it was impossible to enter into a discussion on this bill at that late hour. However willing the Government might be, the house was not. Mr. DISRAELI thought that the practice of passing bills pro forma was an injurious one. He could not con sent to such a course on this occasion. After a few words from Mr. LucAs, Mr. J. O'CONNEL proposed that the day for going into committee on the Landlord and Tenant and Leasing Powers Bill should be fixed at a late period of the session. This, he thought, wou ld o b v i a t e all difficulty. A:discussion then took place, in which Mr. M`Mahon, Mr. Lucas, and Mr. Maguire took part. As each hon. gentleman resumed his seat, a larger and larger body rose, and the number of Irish members trying to catch the Speaker's eye was becoming quite appalling, when Mr. BROTHERTON moved that the house do now (20 minuta past 1) adjourn. Mr. DISRAELI said that before that question was de termined it was important to arrange what was to be done in reference to the order for the second reading of the Drainage of Lands Bill, which had been fixed for a morn ing sitting. When the subject had been mentioned at an earlier period of the evening, the general feeling of the house appeared to be against a morning sitting—(hear)— but hon. members also felt a delicacy in disturbing the ar rangement for going into committee at Li o'clock, until the hon. member for Dorsetshire (Mr. Ker Seymer) had been communicated with. That communication had been made, and the hon. gentleman had no objection to the order being discharged. He (Mr. Disraeli) therefore proposed that the order should be discharged accordingly. The SPEAKER said that the motion for the adjourn. ment of the house must bo disposed of before the right hon. gentleman's proposition could be entertained. Mr. V. SCULLY asked if the second reading of the Landlord and Tenant Bill had been postponed or not. The learned serjeant (Mr. Serjeant Shee) he knew was under the impression that the three bills should go on together. The SPEAKER said the Landlord and Tenant (Ireland) Bill and the Leasing Powers Bill had both been read a se cond time, and ordered to be committed on Thursday. Sir J. YOUNG said he had no conception when be moved these bills that any one was intending to oppose them. In committee there would be ample opportunity to discuss them. The clerk read the titles distinctly in an audible voice, and if hon. members did not oppose them he could not help it. So far as he knew there had been no agreement with any one about these bills. There was a peat deal of difference in these bills. The third bill was opposed by a large majority in the house. • • Lord PALMERSTON suggested that the bill should be fixed for Thursday —not that it could come on then, but they could then determine on what day the bill should be taken. After some further conversation, Mr. BROTHERTON with drew his motion for adjournment, and the second reading of the bill was fixed for Thursday. COURTS OF COMMON LAW (IRELAND) BILL. Mr. WHITESIDE said he should withdraw this bill. The order for the bill being committed was then dis charged. MORNING SITTINGS. On the motion of Mr. DISRAELI, the twelve o'clock orders for this day wire postponed until Friday. Mr. DISRAELI moved that the Lands Improvement Bill, which stood for committee at twelve o'clock on Thurs day, should also be postponed. Sir J. YOUNG resisted the motion. Mr. DISRAELI announced his intention to oppose all morning sittings a t thi s per i od of the session, considering that there was no pressure of public business. Lord PALMERSTON said the government would not trouble the house to divide on the motion. The twelve o'clock order for Thursday was, therefore, discharged. Sir J. YOUNG then moved that the Lands Improve ment Bill should be committed on this day week, at twelve o'cl oc k, b u t thi s motion meeting with opposition, it was ultim a t e l y w i t hd rawn. The house then a dj ourne d a t t en m i nu t es t o 2 o'clock. A CHINESE NEWSPAPER IN SAN FRANCISCO.—We . have received the fi rs t num b er o f a newspaper published in the Chinese language and printed in Chinese charac ters, which has been started in this city as the organ of the Celestial population. It is entitled the Gold Hills News, California being known among the Chinese as " the Gold Hills." As usual with many of the Oriental languages, one has to read Chinese from top to bottom, instead of from left to right. The News presents a very fair typographical appearance for Chinese ; that is to say, it looks as if a spider out of an ink-bottle had crawled over a sheet of white paper. We are not very familiar with the Chinese characters, but from appearances we should judge that the " salu tatory" of the editor was particularly eloquent. It abounds in a number of hieroglyphics that strongly resemble centipedes, with an occasional dish of taran tulas. The Chinese population of this State numbers at least 25,000, and, as they nearly all know how to read, notwithstanding the length of time and labour it re quires to attain that accomplishment, there is no doubt the Gold Hills News will be well supported.—San Fran cisco lierald. CITY OF LONDON ELECTION. MR. URQUHART'S ADDRESS TO THE LIVERYMEN OF LONDON. Yesterday afternoon, at 4 o'clock, Mr. Urquhart, who, it is stated, is about being put in nomination against the Right Hon. Lord John Russell, upon his re-election for the City, consequent upon accepting office, addressed a public meeting in the Common Hall. Mr. Urquhart was attended by Mr. Francis Bennoch, the chairman of his own election committee and two or three others who are engaged in promoting his return. The hall was very full, and in the galleries and amongst the crowd were a great number of the Common Councilmen, some ebulition of public feeling being anti cipated. There was a somewhat large body of police stationed about. Mr. URQUHART, who was received with considerable cheering, said that he came before them a solitary man, and threw himself upon the indulgence of those be fore him, and had come forward solely to rescue the representation of the great city of London from being the pocket borough of a Coalition Ministry. He wished to know where was the man of great mind, a liberal sen timent, whom they were told to elect for this great city. (Groans.) He wished that groan to be reported, and he would accept the charge of a calumniator if he at tacked a better man than himself. He charged the Ministry with having caused the war, and they were told to recollect Lord John Russell, because he was part of that Ministry. There was no occa sion for wars—(groans and unanimous cries of " Yes") — and if there was, he and his colleagues had caused it. (No, no.) Ho then proceeded at some length to con condemn the Ministry. (A voice—This is nothing but abuse.) It was not. He charged them with grave crimes. They had suppressed for years past the corres pondence relative to Russia and Turkey. The Turks had already beaten the Russians ; therefore our troops were not wanted. They had done nothing, and our assistance was not called for. (Groans, and cries of Yes, yes.) He then went into a detail of his Liberal views, and said he should go to the poll. Several others, then, admidst much derisive cheering, addressed the meeting. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE. NOTICES TO MARINERS. RED BEACON BUOY, MOLE AT GIBRALTAR. Lloyd's Agency-office, Gibraltar, May 29. Masters of vessels arriving here have to notice that there is a red beacon buoy placed 500 feet in a direct line from the New Mole Poiut in this bay, denoting shoal water within it, from the deposit of stone for the elongation of the said mole. The following is also the copy of a report recently made by Mr. W. W.

THE BLACK SEA. RELEASE OF ENGLIS t VESSELS AT ODESSA. A despatch has been received by her Majesty's Govern ment, from Vice-Admiral Dundas, reporting that the Rus sian Government had permitted all British and French vessels to leave Odessa. PIRACY AND MURDER IN THE GREEK WATERS. Despatches have been received from her Majesty Minister at Athens, from her Majesty's Consul at the Pirmus, re lating to acts of piracy and murder committed in the Greek waters. With reference to the Harriet, of London, which had been plundered and the crew murdered, the Earl of Clarendon has given instructions that a reward be offered for the apprehenition and conviction of the guilty persons. It appears that this vessel, when off the port of Gavrio, was boarded by a Greek schooner, having on board volunteers for Stilida, and on being afterwards boarded by the authorities, there was every reason to believe that the crew had all been murdered, as the decks were full of blood and the crew missing. It was feared that in a very few weeks the whole of the Archipelago will swarm with pirates, and much property and many lives will be lost. LIVERPOOL, Juno 12.—The fiat Railway King, from Bardsea, for this port, with limestone, foundered at sea on the 9th of June; crew landed at Blackpool.—The Royal Mail steamer Ot . awa, which left Portland on the 31st of May, has arrived at this port.—The Royal Mail steamer Europa, which left New York on the 31st of May, has arrived here.

COMMITTEE OF SUPPLY. The house then went into committee of supply, com mencing with the vote of -250,0001. for certain charges formerly paid out of the county rates. Col. DUNNE called attention to the inequality of taxa tion imposed upon Ireland. It was said that the amount voted for the police was an equivalent for this.

Sir R. Peel, in what might be called his settlement with Ireland, had promised poor law s e respects . boards.
