M.D. • 37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON, Doctor of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the University of Edin burgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &C. The essential object of this treatise is to 'point'out the fearful con sequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities and excesses, which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man hood, and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded the health happiness, and privileges to which every human being is entitled. It is absolutely necessary thatall men should know, that there are principles of personal management which cannot be violated without Incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, and how the evil and its consequenc es may be avoided, and above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure. The Anther has for a series of years been engaged in an extensive practice in the treatment of these delicate complaints, which are unfortunately teen too generally confided to the care of ignorant empirics, who inflict great injury on those who are induced to place faith in their pretensions.

A performance was given here on Monday night, under the patronage of Australian colonists, the proceeds to be applied towards the support of the wives and families of soldiers and sailors engaged in the war. The entertainments commenced with Mr. Planche's drama, The _Knights of the Round Table, which wal played for the 32d time. The chief feature of the evening, however, was the debut of Mr. Coppin, " the Australasian comedian," who gave his gratuit ous services on this occasion. This gentleman, who enjoys considerable reputation in the Australian colonies, ap peared in the two-apt - drama (from the French), The Young King, in which he played the part of M. Patzi, the Maire also as Crack in the farce of The Turnpike Gale. In both these impersonations Mr. Coppin proved himself an accomplished actor. His performance of the silly, pom pous Maire, with his eternal platitudes and empty, fussy self-importance, had all tho refinement and polish of gen teel comedy ; while in the farce his style possessed a breadth of genial, unctuous humour that reminded one strongly of the late John Reeve. Mr. Coppin is evidently an experienced artiste, and his performance fully deserved the warm applause with which it was received. .DELPHI THEATRE. In the new piece called Waiting for an Omnibus in the Lowther Arcade on a Rainy Day, brought out at this theatre on Monday night, Mr. Leigh Murray plays the principal character, that of an Irishman of the touch-and go tribe, as low in purse as in morals, of ,whom we have had many examples in the annals of farce writing. Mr. Horatio O'Walker is very like the worthies who have gone before. He is one of those light-hearted, scape-grace dogs, rich both in liasons and in debts, who is about to be ma r ried without a sixpence in his pocket, and who bamboozles the foolish old godfather of his bride into giving his con sent against his will, and even to "shell out" a dow r y. It is extravag an t to a degree, and about' as destitute of plot as anything. The farce requires to be shortened—and that not with a timid hand. Mr. Leigh Murray's Irish is somewhat of an artificial kind. He is nevertheless quick and bustling, and his deficiencies in the Milesian tongue may easily be pardoned. Mr. Paul Bedford is his chief coadjutor. The whole of the action takes place in the Lowther-arcade during a shower of rain. The farce which was announced by Mr. Murray for nightly repetition, is stated in the bills to be from the pen of Mr. Maddison Morton. EXTENSIVE FIRE AT OLNEY, BUCKS.— On Monday afternoon, about two o'clock, a fire took place at the village of Olney, Bucks, which destroyed a great deal of property, and burnt down nearly 60 houses. Olney is about nine miles from Wolverton. The fire origi nated in the washhouse of Mr. Morgan, a grocer, re siding in the High-street, in the centre of the town. The wind blowing briskly from the west fanned the flames, and the fire spread rapidly from one side of the street to the other. Nearly the whole of the houses in the street in an easterly direction from that in which the fire broke out were destroyed. The fire burnt with violence until 12 o'clock at night, when it began to abate, having, reached the end of the street. Many of the houses being of thatch, ikwas an impossibility to Stop the flames, although there were six fire-engines on the spot. The poorer inhabitants will be heavy losers, many of them having had the whole of their furniture de stroyed. During the night between 300 and 400 women and children were sheltered in the national school-room ar,d other places. It is supposed that 10,0001. worth of property has been destroyed; but fortunately there was no of life. The origin of the fire is not known, but it is supposed to have been accidental.

Lord BROUGHAM presented the usual annual peti tion from Robert Owen in favour of a general system of ed cation. The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH .rejoiced greatly to hear the statement of the noble duke, and he thought that it was a good omen at the commencement of his military administration. (Hear, hear.) Their lordships then adjourned. AMERICAN FISHERIES. Earl FITZWILLIA.M said there was a rumour that a treaty was in negociation or actually signed between England and the United States - with regard to the fisheries on the coast of Canada. - He wished to en quire whether this was true, and whether as re ported there was any proposition in it by which American traders would be allowed to establish facto - ries for the purpose of curing fish on the coast 'of the British colony. He considered that such a - proposiT tion as this would be a serious injury not only,to the colony, but to the general interests of this country. • The Earl of CLARENDON—My lords, I am happy to say that the treaty, to which my noble friend has just alluded, has been negotiated and, concluded between this country and the United States. (Hear.) That treaty only reached my hands yesterday afternoon having been forwarded, by Lord Elgin from Quebec, and I really have not yet had time to give it all the attention which its importance deserves. (Hear.) But even if L had I should not think it proper, at the - present time, to enter into any discussion of the provisions of the treaty which has' not yet been approved by the Senate of the United States, and has not been ratified in this country ; (Hear.) My lords, it appeared to her Majesty's Government that the return of Lord Elgin to Canada afforded an oppor tunity which ought Hot to be neglected of endeavouring to settle those numerous questions which, for years past, have been so embarrassing to the two Governments. (Hear.) One of those questions especially—that relating to the fisheries—has given rise to annually increasing causes of contention, and has sometimes threatened col ileums, which -I believe have only been averted for the last two years by the firmness and moderation of Sir George Seymour and of the British and American naval commanders, and by that spirit of friendship and for bearance which has always characterised the officera of both navies. (Hear.) But, my lords, your lordships are also aware that there are other questions which have given rise to embarrassing discussions between the Go vernments of the two countries—questions which involve the commercial relations of our North American posses sions with the United States ; and those questions, which involve very divergent interests, have become so complicated as to render their solution a matter of ex treme difficulty. (Hear.) But her Majesty's Govern ment thought that no man was more entitled to the confidence of those colonies than Lord Elgin, in conse quence of his untiring energy and great exertions for the promotion of their interests, and of the success which bad attended his endeavours. (Hear, hear.) It was, therefore, probable that any arrangement which Lord Elgin might make on their behalf would be viewed by the colonists with favour. And here let me mention — for-it is Sbut an act of justice`—that, in confiding this important trust to Lord Elgin, no want of confidence was exhibited or intended towards Mr. Crampton. (Hear, hear.) His conduct has merited, and has re ceived, the entire approbation of the Government. But Lord Elgin, as Governor-General of Canada, and of the British possessions in North America, possessed quali fications for conducting thisparticular negotiation, which were necessarily peculiar to himself. Lord Elgin was met by Mr. Marcy, on the part of tho United States Government, in a spirit of the most friendly candour. (Hear, hear.) And, indeed, if it had not been so, it would have been impossible for him to have - gone through the preliminary discussions. which were the necessary foun dation of the treaty. That treaty, however, has been concluded, and I can inform my noble friend, with re ference to the particular treaty about which he has asked me, that it contains no new provision whatever for enabling American citizens to establish factoriesupon the British territories. (Hear, hear.) As far as I have been able to institute a comparison; the words are nearly the same, and the principle is quite the same, as in the treaty of 1818 ; because although some con cessions have been made upon the part of the colo nists, and although they have not obtained all the o ivileges which they had claimed, I nevertheless believe, and my opinion is •strengthened by that of Lord Elgin, that the treaty will prove of signal benefit to the colonists, and will tend in a great measure to promote and advance their prosperity. (Hear, hear.) I believe' also that the United States will derive—as they will be entitled to derive—reCiprocal advantages, and will be benefited to a great extent by the facilities which will be given for the development of their natural resources. (Hear.) I trust, therefore, that nothing will occur to mar the completion of this great work, which I firmly be lieve, more than any other event of recent times, will contribute to remove all differences between two coun tries whose similarity of language and affinity of race, whose enterprise and industry, ought to unite them in the bonds of cordial friendship, and to perpetuate feel. legs of mutual confidence and good-will. (Hear.) In reply to a question from the Earl of HAEROWBY, The Earl of CLARENDON said that no progress had been made in inducing the United States to open the trade between New York and California to foreign vessels. The Duke of NEWCASTLE, in answer to the Earl of DERBY, stated that the assent of the colonial legis latures would be necessary to give effect to the pro visions of the treaty. ENCLOSING OF HAMPSTEAD HEATH. The Marquis of CLANRICARDE moved the second reading of the Finchley-road Bill, and assured their lordships that there was not a particle of truth in the representation that it was the object of the bill to pro cure an-enclosure of Hampstead Heat h . A glance at the map which accompanied the bill would suffice to show that the measure had not, and could not possibly have any such operation.. It had no more to do with Hampstead Heath than with Regent's-park. • Lord BROUGHAM moved that th e bill be read a second time this day six months. After some conversation a division. took place. The numbers were : For the second reading 34 Against it • Majority The bill was consequently was read the second time. ENCUMBERED ESTATES (WEST INDIA) BILL. On the motion for going into committee on this bill, Lord ST. LEONARDS suggested the insertion of a number of clauses, the object of which was to assimilate the bill more closely to the provisions of the Encum bered Estates Act for Ireland, and to give protection to the rights of the resident owners of property. - The Duke of NEWCASTLE thought that their lord ships and the public were greatly indebted to the noble and learned lord for having devoted his time and great talents to the consideration of the measure. As he be lieved it was not the intention of the noble lord to thwart couldthe f o o f r the bie b i e l x l , e r h u e o t o ll s thought would t b h e e t o b e p s o t e r t e p t o u o r e n tb h e e committee on the bill until Friday next, in order that the amendments might be printed and laid fully before the house. The committee on the bill was accordingly postponed until Friday next. LORD LOVAT'S RESTITUTION BILL. On the motion of the LORD CHANCELLOR, a bill, which had been introduced by the present Lord Lovat with the consent of her Majesty, having for its object the reversal of the attainder upon Simon Lord Lovat in the last century, was read a second time. WITNESSES BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. MEDALS FOR THE KAFFIR WAR. The Duke of RICHMOND rose to inquire if it was the intention of the Government to recommend that medalsb e conferred upon officers, non-commissioned officers, and private soldiers who served in the late campaigns in South Africa 1 In putting this question to the noble duke oppo site, he begged to disclaim the s li g htest p art y or politi cal , feeling, but he was induced to take this step, because that it would be in accordance with the wish of the great mass of the people that some pro of should .be given of their grateful sentiments towards the brave men who had fought the battles of the country, whether by sea or by land. Of late years it had been the custom to give distinctions to the captains of the ships or the command ing officer of the regiments engaged, by conferring upon them the Order of the Bath, and by promoting the first lieutenants, or giving brevet majorities to the senior captains. But he (the Duke of Richmond) was anxious' that some inducement should be held out to respectable men to enter the two services. He knew that much had been done of late to ameliorate the condition both of our soldiers and our sailors, but much more remained yet to be done. He thought that while granting distinc tions to the commanding officers, they ought not to for get those men who, by their conduct under every priva tion and danger, had quitted this country to conquer, and had placed those distinctions- within the reach of their leaders. Medals had been very properly granted to the soldiers who had served in the East Indies and in China ; but he thought that the principle of giving re• wards ought to be more extended. A man who went to the Cape of Good Hope bad to endure dangers and privations with which few armies had ever had to contend ; with the conviction, moreover, that if separated by a few yards from his comrades and wounded, torture and death would be his certain portion. As one that had himself known something of war, he could assure .their lordshipi that the people of England were little aware of the her: rors, the fatigues, and the dangers which soldiers muse undergo in every active campaign. (Hear, hear.) A man came home after the war with his constitution de; stroyed, and not having served sufficiently long to en title him to a pension, he was discharged with perhaps a year's pay. Such a man and his friends would be proud and comparatively happy if he could only show upon his, breast some token of his Sovereign's and his country's approbation. (Hear, hear.) The Duke of NEWCASTLE entirely agreed with what had fallen from his noble friend, and was happy to inform him that it was the intention of her Majesty to confer medals upon the soldiers engaged in the Kaffir war. (Cheers.) The delay which had arisen was owing solely to the circumstance that he had thought it desirable first to speak to Lord Cathcart, the distinguished commander of HOUSE. OF COMMONS—(YESTERDAY.) The house resumed at six o'clock. - • THE EASTERN QUESTION. - 11 e. LAYARD said—On Friday. last, sir, I gave notice that. I should, on Thursday next, submit a resolution to the notice of the house. ,At that time I did not pledge myself to any .particular words for that resolution, but in order that there should be no misunderstanding, I stated that•my intention was to elicit the . opinions of the house with reference to certain language held by the noble earl at the.head - of_the Government with regard to our present relations with Russia. I understand that, in consequence of that-notice, the noble earl stated -hia intention to make" some exPlanation of that language, ,and- that that explana tion has been since given ; and I trust that it will have the effebt of retrieving fromthe public mind a very general (what I hope may be called) misapprehension, and of affirm- . ing that -Policy which has been so ably, and in such an English spirit, shadowed forth by the noble lord the Presi dent'df the - Council incr by the noble earl the "Secretary of State for Foreign Affa,ll. I therefore think that I shall be acting most intonforrnity with the feelings of the house if I withdraw my notice, as it was directed- against : the speech whichwas the subject of that explanation. (Hear, hear.)- .But.in doing so, I hope the house will allow me to express irly conviction; looking to the present critical aspect of public. affairs, and especially if the new's received yes terday should be true, that before tVe separate for the re cess some discussion should take pl a ce in this house on hthe state our foreign relations. Ido not wish to obtrude myself upon the house by undertaking such a duty ; but if nobody else in this house will do so, I shall myself bring the subject forward. I shall proceed in no .hostile spirit towards her Majesty's Ge„tprrunent ; but it is my conviction, I repeat, •that there ought to be some expres sion . of-opinion on the part of this house before Parliament prorogues • and I will leave the naming of th e d a y f o r th a t purpose to noble lord the member for London.. , . .. ment to the development of the commercial prosperity of the country—oceasioning an unnatural diversion of capital into the channel of chartered and incorporated companies, to which cause he believed he might attribute 'the rail Way mania, which proved seamferiunate some years ago. An alteration of the' law would enable men of capital' to assist men without cepital, but possessing ability, honesty, and industry, to set up in trade, and in process of time to be come capitalists themselves. (Hear, hear.) As it was, he had been infdimed by gentlemen engaged in commerce and. sitting in that house, that they would be gad to aid enter prising workmen, but had been deterred from doing so by the state of the law; that all they could do, therefore, was to advance money on a fixed rate of interest which" very 'often the workmen could not afford to pay. Another result of an alteration of the law would be, that a retiring partner would be able to leave a certain amount of money in business without being haunted by a dread of the con sequences of incurring an unlimited liability. And fur ther, it would open up to persons of small capital channels for itive4treent which were now closed to them. The ques tion before the house was but the free trade question over again in another shape. ' And he appealed to gentlemen opposite, and to those landowners who had been deprived of protection, whether they thought it fair that, they having been deprived of protection, protection should be afforded to capitalists. -Fur-his own part; he knew:not why capitalists should be protected rather than any other class of the com munity. (Hear, hear.) Either these limited liability com panies would succeed or they would - fail. If they suc ceeded, it would ho' by supplying the public at a cheaper rate than at present : if so, the public would be benefited. If they failed no injury would be done to the fair trader. Ono of the arguments of the.opponents of limited liability was this. They said that in a poor country, where there was little capital, it might be that the principle ought to be adopted ; but that this country was already rich enough, had capital enough, and that it did not apply to this country. The argument, if worth anything, must suppose that there was once a period when the system of liability would have been applicable to this country—namely, be fore it came rich enough. (Hear, hear.) And when did this country become rich enough to render the system in applicable here? 'He did not understand it to be con tended that it was possible foe a country, . economically speaking, to be too rich ; nor did he understand why a principle which had the effect of developing the resources of one country should have a different operation in another.. It was.the opinion of Mr. John Stuart Mill, one of the greatest political economists since the days of Adam Smith, that the liberty of entering into partner ships •of limited liability, similar to the conmandite part nerships of France and other countries, was an important element in the general freedom of commercial transactions and - a valuable aid to undertakings of general usefulness; and that no one could condemn those partnerships with out being prepared to' hollthat a business ought not to be carried on with borrowed capital. The doctrine which we maintained was at variance with the civil law, and that it rested only upon a questionable decision, about 60years ago. Explaining the principle of partnership en conman,elite, by which registered partners were unlimitedly liable, while others were liable, only to the amount of their subscription, he adverted to its acceptance and bene ficial working in Florence, Genoa, . Venice, France, Holland, Germany, Reggie., and America. Ho addressed himself at some length to a refutation of various objections to the ;system of limited liability, which he con tended was in conformity with the principles of political economy, and rested upon the same basis as free trade in other things than capital, and he moved a resolution to the effect - that the present law of partnership was unsatis factory, and should be so far modified as to permit persons to contribute to the capital of trading concerns on terms of sharing their profits without incurring liability beyond a certain amount. Lord GODERICII seconded the motion, and contended that all our great works were carried on for the benefit of the wealthy classes, the humbler capitalist having no means of advantageously investing his gains. He thought that great social benefits would be derived from the pro posed change. "- Mr. CARDWELL said that he could assure his noble friend'that he was both willing and anxious fully to con sider all the arguments and statements contained in the report of the commissioners which now lay ,on the table. Certainly, when the committee of 1851, after in quiring into this subject during two successive years, ab stained from reporting to the house any positive opinion upon it, but recommended that the Government should ap point a commission composed of persons of great legal and commercial knoWledge for its further elucidation, he un derstood that it was the bounden duty of those to whom the report of the commission was made to consider the subject most 'carefully and respectfully in all its bearings. He was sure that when the time arrived for taking any course with respect to the law of partnership, no objec tions would be made to any change upon grounds an tagonistic to the principles of unrestricted competition. He was sure the house would not be told that it was neces sary for the protection of great capitalists that a restriction should li) imposed• upon the aggregation of small capitals ; or that they would be told that a system which would pro mote the welfare of industrious young men should be put down to pro'tect those who, having been more fortunate in life, had a greater capital in command. The only question would be, "What is the mode by. which free competition may be most effectually promoted; by which the advance of young men in life may' be most easilypromated, by which social improvement may be most advanced, and by which the rights.and interests of scientific and ingenious men effect ing improvements may be best promoted ? ' Before entering upon this subject, he would beg the house to consider what the law of partnership in this country really was. The law was, that when persons were engaged in trading in partnership there was a general presumption that each partner was intrusted by his colleagues with power to bind the whole partnership in their commercial transactions. The law, however, did not prevent partners limiting their liabilities as between themselves ; nor did it even prevent them introducing into their contracts with their creditors terms by which their liability was limited, and the right of the creditors to payment was testricted to a particular fund. This power, too, was not inoperative, but was in pretty constant operation amongst the large companies in the city of London. The point in which the law of this country really differed from that of foreign countries was, that we had not by legislative enactment established those modes of creating a presumptive notice of limited liability to creditors, which existed there. In France, and in mapy of the United States of America, there were . laws which enacted that by complying with certain regulations per sons were taken to have given notice to all the world of the nature and limitation of their liability. There had also for many years been in operation in Ireland an act of the Irish Rouse of Commons enabling persons to carry on trade in that country under a limitation of liability. Under these circumstances, the object of .the commission had been to obtain evidence from France, America, and other coun tries in which this system was in operation, in order that' we might be enabled to determine whether it would be advantageous to establish in this country a simi lar mode of creating a presumption of limited liability. That would be the point for the consideration of the house; not whether a person should have a right to make any contract as he thought fit with his creditors. He could not, however, presume to say that he had yet been able to give to a document of such importance as the report of the com missioners, which had only been in his hands for a week, that amount of attention which would justify him in now pronouncing a decisive opinion upon its contents. It was said that the experience of America was wholly in favour of an enactment by which a presumptive limitation of liability should arise. He would, however, remind the house that although the then American Secretary of Legation in this country gave strong evidence to that effect' before the com mittee of 1851, when his evidence was printed he appended to it a statement that since he left America an enactment had been passed by which shareholders in a bank were made liable for the redemption of unpaid bills of the bank a h n i d s t thinkingi n o s order r d h t o he w ra tt t o hat t this impress he subject tuhier ehd 0 0. ti f s l e 85 . further th l. e were importance right iof investigation;in in proportion to the number of their shares. He mentioned t approaching this subject with deliberation, and of carefully considering any conclusion to which they might come, in order that they should not hereafter be exposed to a charge of having acted precipitately. An hon. gentleman had given notice of hie intention to add to the present resolu- - tion. a rider calling attention to the claims of Ireland to have such a law as he had been describing. Ire land had, however, for' many years, had such a law, but it had not been put in operation. He had no doubt that that was in consequence of the framing of the law, and that this required amendment. But no body had yet come forward on behalf of Ireland to specify the manner in which this alteration should impossibility place. He must again impress upon the house the of legislating upon this subject in a satisfactory manner, un til they had all the requisite materials before them, so that they might guard against the dangers that might be in volved in this proposition. It must not be forgotten that the majority of the commissioners were opposed to any change in the law, and that one of their body (Lord Carrie hill) had: addressed to them an elaborate argument, in which he intended to. show that neither in regard to the convenience of persons engaged 'in trade, nor on the ground of security against fraud, and still less on the ground of free trade,' could 'the system- proposed by the hon. and learned member for Plymouth be recommended for adop tion. It had been contended, on the authority of Mr. Mill, that considerations of natural justice, and the prin ciples of free trade, required the adoption of a system of partnership en conmandite. He must, however, remind them that those whose names were most familiar to the house as great free trade authorities were divided in opinion on this subject; and that if Mr. Mill was on the one side, Mr. Tooke was on the other. (Hear, hear.) In fact, persons of the most pronounced opinions in favour of free trade—not only lawyers, but political economists — viewed this matter as quite distinct from free trade, and as simply involving the question, What shall be the effect of certain arrangement's between parties entered into with public notice upon their contracts with those with whom they have dealings ? He abstained from arguing the question on either side, because he thought it would be 'premature to do so before either he or the members of the h t o o u b s ee taken thehadtio protection e a c n opportunity versant with the report of the commissioners and the err deuce which they had collected. He must, however, re mind the house that although it might be true that out of 69 witnesses examined, 37 were in favour of a la w limiting liability, they were divided in opinion on questi ons of such importance as these :—Whether it was desirable that the law now in operation in France, or that o f Ame rica, or some amendment of that of Ireland , s hould be adopted ? Whether, in case of insolvency , any past profits of the concern should be brought to - D.ocount, or the liabi lity of the partners should be limited to t he amount of the W capital originally embarked by the m ? Whether there should or should not be an open registry of all the share holders ? And whether, supp osin g 2e, 50, or 75 per cent. of the capital of a concern was lost, it should be wound up for the' benefit of the creditors. In fact , among the 37 witnesses in favour of this system there were all imagin able differences of opinion as to the securities that ou g h t disastrous consequences that must necessarily ensue if it should happen that commercial failure upon a large scale resulted from an alteration in the law. It was clearly the duty of the Legislature to come to a definite opinion upon these points before consenting to an alteration in the law. ' Nor should it be forgotten that amongst those in favour of the maintenance of the present law were some very high authorities, such as the Commercial Association of VICTUALLING THE NAVY. Mr. FAGAN inquired of. the First Lord of the Ad miralty, whether the experiment last winter in the vari ous royal victualling yards of curing and salting beef for the use of the. navy had proved that provisions could be made uP cheaper iu these yards than they could be sup plied in the usual way by Government contractors; and whether the - Board of Admiralty proposed to continue to cure and salt beef in the royal victualling yards ? Sir J. GRAHAM replied that there was no' stronger ad vocate for the system of contracting as opposed to any species of manufacture in the dockyards as a general rule than he was, but he considered that the particular subject to which the hon. member's question applied was an ex ception to such general rule. It was true that by his ad vice the Board of Admiralty last year had recommenced salting and curing meat in•the dockyards in consequence of the exorbitant price demanded by the contractors, who could only be held in check by its being shown to them that no combination on their part to maintain exorbitant prices 'would be submitted to. (Hear, hear.) 'He might add that the experiment had been so successful that it was intended to continue to cure and salt provisions in the dockyards. NAVY RESERVE. Sir G. TYLER wished to know from the right hon. baronet whether he intended to bring forward any measure during the present session for the purpose of establishing more efficient means for securing a reserve of seamen for manning the ships of her Majesty's navy than at pre sent existed ? Sir J. GRAHAM could only state to the hon. and gallant officer and to the house that at this moment there were 44,000 seamen and boys afloat on full pay; that 12,000 had entered for continuous service within the last six months ; and that, besides this, the Government had succeeded in raising coast volunteers to the number of nearly 5,000. (Hear, hear.) Under these circumstances, he was not aware of any further measure that was necessary ; it would, however, be open to the Government, without an application to Parliament, to consider the important ques tion, whether the Coast Guard, in connection with the Coast Volunteers, might not be brought more immediately under the control of the Admiralty, and thereby form au effective reserve. (Hear.) THE NEW POLICE BILL. lord the Home Secretary received a deputation from the Mr. BRlGHTOb;arved that some time ago the noble representatives of. a large D anaher of the borough towns against the bill for bring ng the police of the whole country under the, control of the Home-office, and the im pression derived froin what fell from the noble lord at that interview was, that the bill was to be withdrawn in deference to the objections generally entertained against it. But in one of the morning papers, which was gene rally supposed to be in some degroe in the confidence of the Government, he saw the bill spoken of in terms of approbation, and the noble lord was lauded kir bringing it forward. Seeing this, and that the bill still remained upon the order paper, there was some apprehension abroad that the bill was not intended to be withdrawn, and it would be very desirable, therefore, if the noble lord would explain what really were his intentions mien the subject. Viscount PAMERSTON stated that a deputation, con sisting of a number of gentlemen, had certainly waited upon ' him, and urged various objections against certain portions" of the bill ; and without admitting the force of those ob jections, he told the deputation that he could not but ad mit the fact that such objections were entertained, that he attached every value to the principle of local self-govern ment, and though he did not think the bill in question in fringed that principle, yet if they thought it did, that would form a materi a l element in guiding his conduct in the matter— (hear)—and that though he thought the bill a good one, he should not consider that he was doing good service to the boroughs they represented to force it upon them against their will. (Hear, hear.) He had, therefore, promised to withd raw th e bill, reserving to himself the right to con Sider whether he would 'introduce another, omittinc , those portithi s w hi c h were o bj ec t e d t o . (H ear .) He quite agreed that it would be unwise to ask the house to read a bill a second time, which it was understood at the time would be liable' to considerable modifications in committee consequently, the best way would be to with draw the present bill; with the view of considering whether it could be.so modified as to make it acceptable to the house, and' useful to the country. At present it stood for Friday, and by that 'day he would consider whether it would be better to drop the bill altogether for this session or to re -introduce' it in ' a modified form. THE PENINSULAR -AND ORIENTAL MAIL Mr. SEYKO ' - CONTRACT. whether the Peninsular and Oriental Company had applied MI, asked the FirstjAord of the Admiralty, to be released from. the contract for carrying the mails to India, China, and Australia, and if so, whether he would lay their application beforethe house, and what' course her Majesty's Government meant to pursue with regard to it ? Sir J. GRAHAM rep li e d th a t it was t rue th e Peninsular and Oriental C ompany h a d presen t e d a memor i a l to the Admiralty, alleging that on account of the great increase in the rate of freights,. and the high price of coals the contract under which they conveyed the mails entailed great loss upon them, and praying to be released from it, and in consequence of that memorial the Board of Admi ralty had come to an arrangement with the company to investigate the allegations. It would be inconvenient to lay the memorial before the house, but he hoped the result of the inv es ti ga ti on wou ld b e a satisfactory adjustment. Mr. SE YXOUR inquired who was the person appointed on the part of the Government to conduct the inquiry. Sir J. GRAHAM—Two accountants, one of whom is an officer under thp Accountant-General of the Navy. Mr. BRIGHT understood that the company had been making very large profits by their contract in previous years, and urged that the inquiry should extend to the years of gain as well as the years of loss. Sir J. GRAHAM—The Board of Admiralty had come to no conclusion beyond directing an investigation of the facts stated in the memorial. Mr. BRIGHT said the right hon. gentleman had not answered. his question. What he asked 'was, whether in the directions given to those who were to carry out the inquiry the investigation was to be limited to this year, or whether it was to extend to the results of the contract dtiring the whole time it had been in force. The house had a right to know this, 'seeing that it was probable. a vote would be called for to make good any loss. Sir J. GRAR A ll—lf the house is called upon for a vote I shall consider it my duty to enter into the most minute details of the whole Matter ; but the memorialists having set forth their losses only and not their gains, the investi gation will be in the first instance as to the losses, but be fore we decide upon the prayer of the memorial, the ques. tion of the previous gains must also be taken into consi. deration.. (Hear, bear.) FACTORY AND LAW REPORTS. - _ Colonel DUNNE inquired whether the Secretary of State for the Home Department had received the reports of Inspectors of faotories to April, 1851, and when they would be laid on the table of the house ? Lord PALMERSTON. said the report had been received and would be immediately laid before the house, and, in reply to Mr. Walpole, the noble lord added, that the first report of the legal commissioners had been presented to the Home -office, and would shortly be laid on the table. LAW OF PARTNERSHIP. Mr. HORSFALL appealed to Mr. Collier to postpone his motion on this subject, in consequence of the short time which the report of the commission had been in tlie hands of members. ' • Mn COLLIER; then called the attention of the House to. the law of partnership, and observed that it was not a mere lawyers' question, but one on which the co-operation of all classes of members would be advantageous. He briefly stated the character of the law as it exists, and by which it is presumed that every partner has a right to bind all the others to an unlimited extent. It was alleged that it was in consequence of this law of unlimited liability that the country had arrived at its present state of prosperity. He denied that fact. He asserted, on the contrary, that they were indebted to the breaches of this law for the great works that had been carried out. Where would have been their railways, their canals, their d ocks, and their man y other works, but for the violations of this law ? Even their greatest work of art in modern days, the Crystal Palace, w ou ld never have been erecte d if the y had confined themselves to the letter of the law. It was supposed by some that the existing law was necessary to our commer cial prosperity. He, however, said that the gravestones of unlimited liability were to be found in their prisons and their courts of bankruptcy. The question was, whether the present state of the law was satisfactory ?—whether it rested on a footing that could be depended upon ?—and whether it was desirable to allow a large class of persons to invest their money upon a principle of limited liability without obliging them to make an appeal for a special license from the Crown. The hon. member for Kidder minster (Mr. Lowe) said that nothing could be worse than a system which, in the first instance, prohibited limited liability, and, in the second, invested the Government with power to violate the law. -If the law be right it ought to be enforced ; if wrong it ought to be repealed. Mr. Lowe then observed—" I should as soon think of allowing the Secretary of the Treasury to grant dispen sations for smuggling, or the Attorney-General licenses for gambling." (Hear, hear.) He ventured to think that the restrictions imposed by the exist ing law of unlimited liability were a serious impedi- v,!*l , • ;, -- r - //." v;ae lk • I /' y _ '~G~ 7 r r- ~y ~ -- L ~~ . V Mr: MlLLlERiiiplied. He was extremely satisfied with the manner in which his resolution had been received. It appeared to him almost immaterial whether he divided or not, as the opinion of the house had been most unmis takeably expressed in the course of the debate. He felt the force of the appeal made to him by the Home Se cretary and the Attorney-General, who htid rritirnittedtheir concurrence in his views and their readiness to legislate ; and, if permitted to do so, he should withdraw his motion. ...Mr—JOHN MACGREGOR thought a discussion would have much greater weight with the country than a divi sion. (No, no). The ques tion Was then put, and the resolution was agreed to, with the addition of the words proposed by Mr. Lucas. RUSSO-DUTCH LOAN. _ _ _ Lord D. STUART, adverting to a notice of motion which he had on the paper on this subject, said at that late hour (a quarter to 12) he should despair of securing the attention of the house. He had waited the whole eveningin the vain hope of bringing it on, and he now reluctantly consented to postpone. His hon. friend the Secretary to the Treasury having intimated to him that he had a reasonable chance of introducing it on Tuesday, the 11th July, he had agreed to postpone it till that day ' • but he did so on the under standing that if he should be unable to obtain any other opportunity, he would introduce it on the motion for going into comma tee of supply. Mr. BOWY ER, in withdrawing a motion, complained that independent members had at present no opportunity of in troducing the motions which they had placed on the table. THE CLAIMS OF CAPTAIN DICKEYSON. Admiral WALCOTT moved for a select committee to in quire into the claims of Capt. Dickenson, R.N., on behalf of himself, the officers, and crews of her Majesty's vessels employed on the subject of sa'vage, &c., connected with the recovery of treasure in the wreck of her Majesty's ship Thetis, off Cape Frio, on the coast of Brazil. The gallant admiral said it still a peered to him most unfair that the Admiralty should have deducted 13,970(. from the hard earnings of a meritorious. o ffi cer, and the seamen und er him. He was astonished to hear the right hon. baronet the -First Lord of the Admiralty observe the other evening that it was inexpedient to re-open a question upon which successive Boards of Admiralty hadgiven adverse decisions. If wrong had been done, the lapse of 20 years w as no rea son why it should not be redressed. Mr. BROTHERTON moved the adjournment of the house. The house divided— For the adjournment......

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said ho hoped the bon. and learned member for Plymouth would not press his re solution to .a division. He felt that, he should make this appeal with the greater force when be said that he was himself a decided friend to limited liability. At the same time the question was now brought forward -for the - firs. time in the house, at least in this Parliament and there.: ak a report founded on lengthened evidence whieh'f i lie bed not had airopportunity of reading. He would - also pjat . to him" that there was no merit in carrying, an nbstr • solution: If a measure of thi s ki n d w as b rought in, ev erbody felt, after the discussion which bad• taken place; it would be necessary to surround such a provisien with a. variety of safeguards to prevent frauds: •He would there. fore put it to his hon. friend that hie object had been fully attained by the discussion which had-taken place,, and that it would be really useless to carry the resolution. It was a matter that deserve i and would receixe tha anxious con sideration of the Government. Mr- NAPIER said if the motion were• premed to a divi sion he should ba in a groat difficulty." He' joined in 're-- commending the hon. and learned genthinsan to withdraw his motion. Lord PALMERSTON said he merely rose to add his re- quest that his hon. friend would not press this motion to is* .division. He thought he ought to be satisfied with the ex pression of opinion which had been given. It was one, no doubt, on which great difference of opinion prevailed, and :it was fair to say that the large capitalists were of one !opinion, and that the bulk of the small capitalists were of another. A commission was appointed at the reeominenda,- 'Hon, he thought, of a committee of that house, 'to inquire linto the matter. The commission had only recently re ported, and he was sure the house would feel that her Ma jeaty's Goverument would not have acted iu a bec om i ng manner if they had at once reached a conclusion with ou t !giving to the report of the commission that due considera tion to which it was entitled. It, therefore, could not be (expected that the Government should be prepared at the I present moment to declare the result which they had come I to, or were likely to come to; and he thought it hardly fair t o as k them to agree to an abstract resolution-without 'igiving them time t© consider not only the - evidence, but the report of the commission.' He was sure tho - boue .would give Government credit for a great anxiety to cot; !rect these defect s which everybody admitted existed in the law as it stood in this anatter, and he trusted that credit would be allowed them for a sincere desire to propose any 'ehenge of the law for the development of national Indus try, and give to the under classes of societyl better 'means of applying their savings, and a greater inducement to Make savings in the course of their limited transactions. There was also another consideration for not pressing the 'motion to a divisi on , w hi c h was that in the early part'of the day it was understood that the boo, member would merely elicit opi uions, and'that there should be no division. • Mr. RICARDO could not agree with what had fallen from the noblelorsl e __ Be had never seen the house so una nimous on any question, and he trusted they would have an opportunity Of putting their unanimity on record. R e trusted the hon. and learned member would press his mo tion to a division. Mr. CAIRNS also expressed a hope that the motion would bo passed, and said if it were carried it would strengthen the hands of Government hereafter in intro ducing a bill. Mr. HORSFALL said like the hon. and learned member fur the University of Dublin, he should be in a difficulty if the motion were passed. The report having been pre sented only a few days ago, if he voted at all it would be not on the merits of the question, but in order to prevent • the house from pledging is self to an abstract resolution. Mr. T. HANKEY regretted that the Government should have requested the withdrawal of this motion, and believing that the change to which it was preparatory would be conducive to the best interests of the commercial community, he trusted that the time was not far distant when that change would be made. Mr. CROSSLEY had not at all made up, his mind on the subject, though he had listened attentively to the debate. He hoped, therefore, that the hon. and learned member would not divide • but, if he did, he should divide with him. (Laughter.) „ I Mr. SPOONER thought that an'abstract resolution - was always objectionable, and as there appeared' to be a desire on the part of hon. gentlemen on the Ministerial . .side to press for a division, he should move the previous question. • The SPEAKER said it was not competent to the hon. member to do so, as there was an' amendment before the house. Mr. J. BALL observed that four members of the com mission out of eight were in favour of allowing special [PRICE SD, ~ Glasgow Lord Overstcrne, Mr. Prescott, Mr. Willia m Brown, 1 - 1 -P-, and-many others. It would clearly be pr e :. cipitate to ask the house to agree to this resolution before they had had time to 'weigh these authorities. The'satue conclusion Was enforced bya consideration of the history of this question. In 1837 a committee which sat at thd instance of Mr. Poulett Thompson reported that the opi nions of those best able to form an opinion on this diffi cult subject were divided, but that by far the greaterf number of those they had examined were against an alte ration of the present law. Accordingly, no steps were taken to introduce any changes. The next titne.the sub ject came under rconsideratlon was in an, incidental man ner, before the joint stock companies committee, in 1844; they, however, came to no decleion.• In 1850 a committee was eppOinted to consider the subject, but they separated without'coming to any formal resoluti on . I n 1851 a com mittee was again appointed.. In the report, they referred to the groat difficulties of the subject ; and recommended the appointment of a. commission of adequate legal, and commercial knowlelge, not only to consider the propriety of consolidating the'existing law but also to'sug-gest such chaii , ' e4 as might be- required by existing 'circumstances. Such a commission was accordingly appointed. It was pre sided over by one of-the most eminent lawyers in the United Kingdom—th& - Master of the Rolls in Ireland. it contained two of the most eminent members of the English. and Scotch benches-Mr. Justice Cresswell and Lord Cur riehill ; well as two other distinguished lawYers—Mr. ,Anderson and Mr.'Brainwell ' antember of the Bank direc tion, the President of the Manchester Chamber of Commerce; and a gentleman also of great legal knowledge, but now engaged iu commeree—Mr: Slater. The commis sioners in their report stated that they had been mach em 4 barrassed by the great contrariety of opinion entertained by those . who favoured them with answers to the questions; that gentleinen of-great experience and talent had arrived at conclusions diametrically opposite, and in supporting them had displayed reasoning power of the highest order. The louse would- certainly not refuse to consider such opinions, collected at their own. desire. (Hear.) Now of the eight commissioners, six had decided in favour of the existing.ltw. Three had not signed the report—Mr. An derson, who, althoughiti the Main agreeing with the other commissioners, differed with theM iu respect to the per mission of loans, the interest of which should vary, with the profits ; and Mr. Bramwell and Mr. Sidon Hodgson, who were in favour of establishing by Parliamentary enactment a presumptive limitation of liability-, or that which was known as coinnzaadite partnership. A committee had been appointed in 1837, which reported that it was inexpedient to altar the law. In 1844 the subject was again considered by a committee appointed on the motion of Mr. Slaney ; and in 1851 a Cominittee, alainappointed under the same auspices, recommended that a partial change should be made in the law, and also that a commission of inquiry should be instituted: For himself, during the time he had held the invidious power of granting charters, he had fulfilled .the pledge he gave. to the house, by keeping the subject as free as possible for the deliberations of Parlia ment, when the report of 'the commissioners should be laid before theui. Besides recommending that the law of joint-stock companies should 'occupy the attention of the Government, the commissioners also recommended the re peal of the laws of usury, and in conformity with that re commendation his sight hon. friend had given notice of a motion for leave to introduce a bill on that subject. In conclusion, he could only say that‘he should be most happy that the House of Commons should be enabled to improve the law as it existed in thiecountry, but they must all feel that the true way to accomplish reforms of every kind, and particularly commercial reforms, was to carry along with them the confidence of those whose in- terests were at stake, and whose property would be affected by the changes contemplated. 'Under our present law, let its defects be what they might, this at least had happened, that our industry had been extended to an unparalleled degree, and our credit raised higher than was the case in any other country, for no other could be pointed out in which the rate of interest was so low, and capital could be obtained on such moderate terms. If we could, by tem perate legislation, add to the stability of our commercial system, to its expansive power, and to the security on which that power was founded and directed, let them not hesitate to enter on that course, and to show the commu nity that when they had to deal with subjects confessedly difficult in the opinion of the most able men, the method they adopted was to inquire first, and then, having ob tained the evidence, to deliberate on it, and finally to ap proach it, not by way of abstract resolution—at all times an unsatisfactory mode of proceeding—but by embodying their conclusions in the provisions of a bill, which when carried, into law . might enhance the prosperity of the country, and secure that it should remain the central point to which the commerce of all nations would gravitate. Mr. LUCAS urged the special cese of the condition of of Ireland, and moved the addition of words to the effect that the modification of the partnership law was especially necessary in that country. - Mr. COBDEN said the arguments against limited liabi lity were founded on the fallacy that those people who had capital to dispose of—and who, he ventured to say, were among the shrewdest people in the world—could not be trusted to discriminate between a'good investment and a bad one. In seeking to protect such persons bylaw they were engaged in a work of complete supererogation. . An other fallacy was, that they were going to pass a law to force people to trust firms founded on the principle of limited liability. Nothing of the kind was contemplated. He did ' not believe that firms established on the principle of limited liability would have less credit than firms established on the principle of unlimited liability. -In .reading over the evidence in the blue book he had been struck—, and he mentioned it without any intention of casting a' slur upon the class referred to—that the questions had generally been addressed to men of business of the large capitalist class, and yet even of that class not one half of them gave opinions in favour of the principle of unlimited liability. In another class—the young men in shops and in warehouses, of whom there were in London alone per haps not less than 100,000—he doubted whether a unani mity of feeling - would not be found in favour of the: prin ciple which gave them a bettir opportunity of entering into business than they now possessed. :Among skilled artisans he believed there was a unanimous feeling in favour of the alteration now sought for. In a social point of view, he took the deepest interest in this question. In the committee of 1851 Mr. Wynne Ellis stated that on 1 Several occasions he had been asked by deserving young men strugglingin the world to enter into partnership with them on the principle of limited liability, but that he had been deterred from giving his name, because ho dared not to risk his whole capital. He believed that similar instances had occurred in other large towns. In all such cases the law of unlimited liability was a great obstacle to young . menerising in the world. With respect to the arguments in favour of maintaining the present state of the law, he was surprised on reading the evidence to find coming from men—whom he had considered sound in political economy—opinions not only adverse to sound political economy, but supported with a feebleness -of ar-, gument which could only come from men who had. a bad cause to` support. They had ventured to predict what would be the consequences of an alteration of the-law, but he had looked in vain for any argument against limited l liability.. When he found men arguing in the future tense as to what -would be or might be, he was always inclined to think that they had not good grounds_for. their argu ment. 'lt was said that limited liability might do in France, Germany, and Holland—countries Which had not so much capital as England. He could not understand that mode of arguing. He did not admit that the prin.- , ciples of political economy were like certain fruits and) flowers, only suited for certain clim a te s . If those prin- ciples were true they were applicable at all times. Bnt the obvious answer to that question was, that if the win ciple of limited liability did not suit' it would not be, adopted. All that was asked for was, that the law should be permissive. It was no argument to say that we had a greater abundance of capital. No one supposed that a future gene ration might not possess a greater abundance of capital. If a fixed amount of capital was to be maintained there would be an end to all change in their mercantile laws. Such a dectrine might suit a stationary people like the Chinese, but if• this country was to be progressive, that ar. gument could, have no effect. He would not refer thie que stion to the arbitrament of any one class, for no class could be trusted to legislate for its . own interest: -In legislating on this question, therefore, they ought not to look exclusively to the opinions of the great capitalists in this country, because they were unconsciously warped by their own feelings of self-interest. If the alteration now proposed .was carried] °tit, capitalists would find employ ment_ for capital for which they were now seeking em ployment elsewhere, and - might obtain 10 per cent.; In stead of 3i, from the Exchequer Bonds.. The present law did not permit a free marriage between capital and in dustry and skill, - and the bands were forbidden liy this law of unlimited • liability. If there was a blot in our social system, it was the tendency which capital had to accumulate in great masses in a few hands. He believed that the law of unlimited liability stood in the way of the diffusion, as well as of the creation, of capital, and that social considerations rendered it desirable that they should bridge over the gulf which 'eel:4.l.9les capital and industry. He hoped, therefore • that the Government would giv e the sanction of their authority to the change proposed. (Heir, hear.) , Mr MALINS predicted, from the present state of (*- then on the subject, that the anomalous condition of _the law would soon be remedi ed by legislation in the spt of the proposed resolution. He regretted 'to gather from Mr. CardwelPs tone that he was opposed to an alteration of the law, and he bore professional testimony to the great mischiefs it occasioned. Mr. GLYN admitted that the commercial law of 'the country was in a most anomalous state, but the evidence which had been taken did not satisfy him that the house had information enough before them to justify them in making the proposed change. He observed that the pen visions which all the foreign witnesses had concurred in saying must be taken against fraud, if the change were made, would render the new system so odious as to defeat its object. He also urged that the change would necessitate an immense difference in our system of commercial trans actions, and he thought that the discussion should be entered-upon with the fullest knowledge, but he added that he advanced these .considerations in no desire to delay a measure which would We a decided improvement in com mercial legislation. Mr. G. PHILLIMORE ridiculed the idea that the house had not sufficient information upon a subject which had been under discussion so ma n y years. It was most important, he said, to show the lower classes that we were most anxious to legislate for their benefit. In answer to Mr. Glynn, he said that it was not the contemplated societie et commandite but the soczet . ie anonyme that re q wired the penal legislation alluded to. Mr. LEVESON GOWER, in an effective maiden speech, supported the resolution, expressed his opinion that the present age tended to atociation, the power of which was only beginning to be appreciated z and insisted upon the advantage of extending the benents of associa tion to honest and prudent men instead of to gamblers. Mr. DIGBY SEYMOUR argued -that the speech of Mr. Cardwell, and the proposed abolition of the usury laws, indicat e d s teps in advance on the part of the Govern ment. He supported the resolution. Mr. KENNAL briefly explained the advantages given by the Stannary laws in the case of the Cornish mines. Mr. W. BROWN said he considered that limited lia bility would be injurious to the credit of the country and to the interests of the lower classes. Mr. SOTHERON thought that harm rather than good was done by the affirming abstract propositions, and being himself favourable to the object of the mover of the reso lution, he suggested that, instead of the resolution itself, a bill should be brought in authorising loans for business Only these ran.
