ADMIRALTY, JUNE 10. .Despatches,.Of which the following are copies or extracts, have been received from Vice-Admiral Dundas, C. 8., Commander-in• Chief of her Majesty's Ships and Vessels in the Mediterranean and Black Sea.; — PRESENT STATE OF THE FORTS ON THE COASTS OF CIRCAR.SIA AND GEORGIA. Britannia, off Baljik, May 25, 1854. beg you will acquaint the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, that the Mogador arrived yesterday frOm Redoubt Kale, on the coast of Georgia, having left Sir Edinund_Lyons with the Agamemnon, Charlemagne, Sampson, and Highflyer there, on the 20th instant, and I expect him to-night or to-morrow morning 2. I have not yet received Sir Edmund Lyons' official degpatches, which will be forwarded as soon as I get them; but the result of his movements appears to be, that from the entrance of the Sea of Azof to the Turkish Asiatic Boundary, the flag of Russia only flies over the fortre ;sea of Anapa and Sonjak, and the only two vessels that were on that coast have been captured, as noted in my letter No. 214. No. 22'. 3. All the places were evacuated, and the forts and ma teriel more or less destroyed (many of the guns however being serviceable), except Redoubt Kale and Poti, from -which the Russian soldiers were driven by the fire of the French and English ship 4, 'and they were then garrisoned by a battalion of Turkish soldiers who, with three field pieces, had been previously embarked on board our vessels at St. Nicolai (Chefketil). The Russians, about 700 or 800 men, are supposed to have gone in the direction of Khutais, where also the garrison of Soukhum Kale, 2,000 or 3,000 is supposed to have directed its march. '4. The Sampson is on the coast, and last night the Sans Niel' and two Turkish 'steamers left for Redoubt Kale, with arms, ammunition, and 200 to 300 Circassians. 5. I em happy to say that there is an appearance of •more unity and stronger feeling among the different tribes against the Russians. , I Illiye, &c,, The Secretary of the Admiralty. No. 243 J. W. D. DUNDAS, Vice-Admiral. Britannia, off Baljik, May 28, 1854. Sir,—l acquaint you, for the information of the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, that Sir E. Lyons re joined me this morning, from the coasts of Circassia, Georgia; and Anatolia ; and I have very great pleasure in transmitting, for their Lordships' information, Sir E. Lyons' official reports of the proceedings of the detach ment placed under hi s or d ers . 2.. The operation ther, in detailed, as well as the intelli gence as to the state of the coasts he has visited, are very important and.interesting ; and I trust my Lords will con eider I have done right in expressing my entire approval 01 the great skill and judgment displayed by Sir K Lyons, and his colleague, Viscount do Chabannes ; and I beg to add my testimony to the ability and conduct of the Agamemnon, of whom Sir E Lyons has made such honourable mention.—l have. Sce, J. IV. D. Du DAs, "Vice-Admiral. No. 21. Agamemnon, at Redoute Kaleh, May, 21, 1854. Sin,- I have great pleasure in, reporting to you that the small squadron placed under my orders by you and Admiral Hauelin, lisve been the means of expelling the Russian garrison frum the only place on this extensive coast, with the exception of the is:;rongholds of Anana and Soejak Kaleh, near the Crimea, that the Emperor Nicholas exempted from the general abandonment two months ago. 2. At Seukottm Kaleh I learned that the Russians were still in possession of Redout Kaleh, and that they at tached great importance to maintaining thsmselves there as long as possible, in order to forward to their army at Kutais, a large quantity of ammunition and stores still in the magazines ; and at the same time to intercept the .comissunications of Selim Pacha at this cri`ical juncture, and prevent-his occupation of so favourable a port for the introduction of supliea. 3: The squadron left Soukoum Kaleh on the morning of the 18th, and as wo passed Redout Kaleh we observed a body of about 1,001 infantry under arms, and that the few gnus an the sea defences were manned. If we had opened our broadsides we could have obliged the enemy to retire, bathe mould, no doubt, have returned to occupy the place on our disappearing, and I, therefore, went on with the squadron as fast as possible to Chouruksoo, in hopes of in ducing the General commanding there to aid me w ith a sufficient number to occu py an d maintain the place, after we should have driven the enemy out of it with our guns; he sent an express to Selim Paella ' whose reply arri ve d early on the following morning, and who placed at my dis posal a •battalion of 300 infantry and 3 field pieces, which • were immediately embarked on board the ships of the squa dron with a degree of alacrity I have never seen surpassed. 4. At 4 p.m. the squadron reappeared off /taloa Ka /eh, where the troops weee disembarked, under cover of the steam-vessels, about two miles from the batteries, and at the same time a summons was sent to the Commander of the Russian forces by Vicomte de Chabannes, the senior officer of the French division of the squadron, and myself, under cove r o f a fl ag o f t ruce , an d i n charge f Lieutenant Masse,' of this ship, by whom it was delivered to an officer who spoke F renc h' fluently, and alleged as the reason why an answer could not be given without considerable delay, that the commandant was not on tie spot. 5. After a delay of nearly half an hour Lieut. Masse left the shore without an answer, and consequently the Aga memnon and Charlemagne stood in, as close as the depth of water w ou ld perm i t, and opened their fire upon the quarter occupied by the Russian troops as well as on the sea defences, which tried an ineflectual fire on the boats. The enemy soon returned out of reach of the ships' guns, and the Turkish troops advancing along the beach, took possession of the batteries, when the firing ceased. 6. The enemy retreated so precipitately from under the fire of the ships, that he failed in his attempt to ignite the combustibles which were laid for the destruction of the Military Quarter, but when - out of gun-shot, and his re treat secured by crossing the river and destroying the bridge, he tet fire t o the magazines and st ore h ouses, an d at nightfall the Commercial Town, which commen ce d a t some dist ance from the sea and extended about a mile and a half up each bank of theriver, was in a bl aze , so th a t i n the morning the flo an awful scene -of ulls lug pl ace o f th e even i ng presented l desolation ; the Mingrelian inhabitants, • who had r endered th s seyv es very o b noxious to the dis pleasure of the Turke tieng retired with the Russians. 7. This devastation is, doubt, deeply to be deplored, but it is some consolation have deprived the enemy of a pdleapcootooff soyinil military intatoproersitin ced, tllave driven him from a irregularitarising from success. without any accident, or any 8.

Agamemnon, at Baljik, May 28, 1854. Sir,—With reference to my letters of the 17th and 21st instant, Nos. 20 and 21, I feel that my report of the visit of the allied efitiadron under my orders to the coast of Cir cassia would be very incomplete if I were not to relate that we were evwcliginayelc omet lmAlyereTs by the remark ableA race by Whom is peofilea: — li 2. The weather was fine, and the water deep, so we approached very near th e l an d , and always by daylight ; an d as we opened each beautiful valley, with our English owl French colours flying, the Circassians flocked to the j beach, and testified their joy by firing musquets and waving flags and handkerchiefs. :3. On landing at the principal places the natives assisted us out of our boats, and after giving expression to their delight fo r a f ew minutes, formed a circle around us, pre serving the most perfect order, while their chiefs came forward and addressed the Viscount de Chabannes and me, speaking fluently and sensibly with an ai r of self-esteem, which, combined with their handsome and lofty mien, and their manner of carrying their weapons, was exceedingly striking. They invariably said that while they turned towards England and France with gratit u d e and admiration, as the instruments in the hands of Provi dence for delivering them from their invader s , th ey con fessed that they considered it the jut reward of their patriotism and constancy. 4. They are certainly a fine intelligent race, and I can readily believe them to be second to none in desultory mountain warfare.—l have, &c. (Signed) EDMUND LYONS, Rear-Admiral.

The following bills were read a second time :—The York, Newcastle, and Berwick Railway (construction of docks, &c.) ; the Cornwall Railway ; the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton Railway (Stratford upon-Avon and Stourbridge branches) ; East Lanca shire, Lancashire and York Shire, and Manchester and Southport Railways ; Bagenalstown acd Wexford Railway (No. 2) ; Mel!ow and Fermoy Railway ; the York, Newcastle, and Berwick Railway (1 , 0 op and South Shields, &c.) Bill, and the North Lo n on Railway Amendments Bill, were read a third time d passed. LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL (C (NADA) BILL. The Duke of NEWCASTHE postponed until Thurs day next this bill, on the ground that it had only just been printed. DIVORCE AND MATRIMONIAL CAUSES BILL, The LORD CHANCELLOR, in moving the second reading of this bill, gave a historical sketch of the law on this subject to which it referred, and which, be said, had engaged the attention of the Legis lature fora great many years. Prior to the Reformation marriage in England as it was still in some Roman Catholic countries, was treated as . a sacrament_ and as absolutely indissoluble, but recourse was had to vari ous expedients whereby those marriages were declared to he null and void from the beginning. In the reign of Henry VIII., and aaerwards in that of Edward VI., a commission was appointed to inquire into the state of law connected with the Church, which included the sub je.;::. of divorce, and they recommended that marriages should be set aside for adultry, and a variety of other causes. Their suggestions, however, were not carried into effect, but they were so conformable to the feelings of man kind-that, at the end of the sixteenth or the beginning of the 11th century, divorces were granted by the eccle siastical courts a men= et thoro, but this only separa' s'd the parties, and did not enable them to marry again. Towards the close of the 19th century it was felt that this state of the law subjected parties to great hardship, and by means of la bill in Parliament, they were enabled to procure a divorce de virculo matrinioni, which placed them in a posit'on to again marry. Three years ago a commission we s appointed to inquire into the existing and to suggest remedies for its defects. Their report was re p ort7ith T s w o o me cl s a l ! g s pwriessented to the house lr,st session, and the present bill ht of mo q d u i e fi s c t a io t n io s ns w , e fo re un c d o e n d s t i l d p e o r n ed th b at whichinlOns -first, what, was the class of cases in y divorcesd e.so and secoendEly:',fe it would w a h n a d t t P .; : b n u P :a r l t c o oul p d erm th i e t of uch quest sons be confided.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF COMMONS-(YESTERDAY.) STAMP DUTIES. On the question of going into committee on the Stamp Duties Bill, Mr. HUME 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 commerc e o f 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 th e c l ause w hi ch would iwpoee 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. HUME 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 etaxes were injurious to commerce, yet at the present "Me 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 is, per cent. which this bill would impose on foreign bills of exchange? (H ear .) H e s h ou ld support the clause as it no w s t oo d, Mr. MA.STERMAN 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 Is. per cent., one of 3s. per cont, would virtually be imposed. Mr. WILSON said that this was far from being a new tax, or a very great additio* 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—wpre subject to rites of duty much higher than those in the present measure. Thus, a bill above 300/. and under 5001. was chargeable with a stamp duty of 45., whereas.by the present bill the duty varied from Is. to la. Bd. ; in fact, it was not until the high amount of 3,000/, was reached that the duty proposed in this measure equalled what was imposed under the existing law. It was, therefore, no new e l emen t in taxation t o s t amp foreignbills of exchange, and i 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. Iu former times there might be some reason for exempting bills drawn out of England from duty, on account of the difficulty of hav ing the 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 be 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 be 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 were 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. AFGREGOR 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 ho 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 comtnereial 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 meaning of the vote which they now called upon to give, for hetbought that the observations of bon. 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. Ho went on this principle iu the first place, that all trade, whether between one country and another, or between the country and the towns, was but barter. In the second place he went upon thisotherprinciplo, that it was very desirable—not for fiscal objects only—that the basis of this barter or exchange should be worked through the means of bills of exchange. Now, in order to do this it was desirable th a t th e p resen t hi g h rate of duty on bills of exchange should be reduced. The hon. member (Mr. T. Baring), said that we had gone upon the principle of removing all restrictions on our commerce ; he (the Chancellor of the Exchequer) had not been aware that such had been the principles of the hon. member— (laughter)—but it was upon that footing that this bill pro ceeded. It was to remove the shackles upon trade, and put home and foreign commerce upon a firm footing. In late times the House of Commons had removed shackles upon the foreign trade of this country, they were now about to remove impediments to the home trade. The fact was that the present duty upon inland bills of ex change amounted to 2,3, 4,5, and even 6 per cent. (Hear, hear.) Tho hon. member (Mr. Williams) had said that it might be better to remove the fetters upon the home trade without imposing any duty upon foreign bills, but the an swer to that was perfectly simple. It could not be done, because Government could not, under present circum stances, diminish the revenue of the country. If the com mittee chose to negative this clause relating to foreign bills of exchange it would be impossible for him to persevere 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 200,000,000/. 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 draw*. Ho advised the committee to take a 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 toto 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 clauses 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. Clauses 12, 13, 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 co esijeratien for whi c h it was granted was suppressed, arid it was in this case only that they could call for au 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 t o send the parti e s t o a solicitor. Any person could count the number of words in the instrument. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said the clause, as it was proposed, was mere merciful and less costly to th e party than if th e sugges ti on o f the right hon. gentleman were adopted. After a conversation, in which. Mr. Mullings, M r . G. Butt, and Mr. Phi nn took part, the clause, as amended, was agreed to, as was clause 16. On clause 17, Mr. VANCE complained of some peculiar burden to which the Dublin pawnbrokers were subject, under an old act of Geo. 111. Mr. WILSON said it was quite true they had to pay 1001. in Irish money in order to carry on their trade ; but they did not pay this to the Imperial exchequer, but t o the city of D u bli n, w hi c h h a d chosen, instead of rating the inhabitants generally, to lay a tax of 1001. a y ear on pawnbrokers. (L aug ht er .) 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 bo to injure the sellers of stamps, who would hardly find it worth while to keep their shops open. pen. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said the reduction of the l i mit a t whioh 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 were the remaining clauses. Mr. PHINN moved a new clause—" That every instru- ment liable to stamp dnty shall be admitted in evidence in any criminal proceeding, although it may not have the stamp required by law impressed on or affixed thereto. 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 ho had received no representation on the subject, and he did not mean to propose any reduction in the present bill, COMMITTEE OF SUPPLY. The house then went into coiiiinittee 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. lie had always understood that this payment was given by Sir R. Peel as an equivalent for the repeal of the corn laws, Ire land being peculiarly an agricultural country. The police in Ireland was not a police in the ordinary sense. He be lieved it to be a wholly unoonstitutional force ; its numbers were not voted by Parliament as were those of the army and navy; and before long he hoped that the state of the county would allow of d its reduction. Sir R. Peel, in what might be called his settlement with Ireland, had promised to relieve the counties from half the expense of convicts and prosecutions, and some other expenses _connected with the poor-law boards. But England had already been relieved in those respects. At this moment there was 246,1951 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 home. Sir J. PAKINGTON wished to know whether, in con sequence of the adoption of the system of penal servitude, 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 ho had received from persous engaged iu 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 eases in which from the peculiar construction of the individual even that period was likely to lead to any permanent in jury, a discr4ionary 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 beneficial effects, that it afforded time for reflection and opportunities 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. (ILar.) 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 lord 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 he was sent to Port land or some other place where he could be employed on the public works. In county - prisons, if properly conducted there should be a certain part arranged in separate cells, in which the criminal could hold communication with the officers of the prison, the chaplain, or the person employed in teaching him a trade. But there should be another part in which the prisoners could be associated together; and there should bo 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 concarred in the views of the noble lord, and asked how long the new plan had been acted upon. Lord PALMERSTON—Since last autumn. Mr. PALK asked whether the same system was pursued at Dartmoor as at Pentonville ? 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. NE WDEGA TE called the attention of the Govern ment to a case in which a notorious malefactor bad been released from prison on the understanding that ho was to bo 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. He (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 SEYMOUR reminded the committee that they were told last year that transportation had 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 94,7651. On 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 407,0301., and the present 371,0001. The figures being so opposite to what might be expected, he should 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 ky s tein of banishment ought to be fully understood by the house. Sir J. PAKINGTON wished also to put another pies , tion. He 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 on which the selection was math). Lord PALMERSTON said that when a prisoner was released it was of course difficult to take any positive security that ho 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 the 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 hold over the 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 tho s e cases means h a d a t once been taken of brin g ing the parties back to th e p u bli c works from whi c h th e y had been sent. With regard to the question of the noble lord (-3eymour) 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 less. 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 ro g ues left in Eng land and then turned loose on society. Hshould 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 9,0001. 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, 9.1. 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 entry in the estimates under the bead 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 ene. Lord PALMERSTON—I suppose the hon. gentleman wants really to know whether Catholic priests are to be allowed in prisons. (Mr. Spooner shook his head in dis sent.) Well, then, all that is to be said is that the 5501. is for Catholic priests who are attending convicts in catho lic 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 Roman 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 re ason w h y he should say more on the subject. (Laughter.) Lord PALMERSTON said, though he might not bo 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 ho were to join him, could have the effect that he desired. And, therefore, as it happened that they had a large proportion of their countrymen who were Catholics, he 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 to Period during which the man was confined W give & 1191? THE TIGER. Captain SCOBELL wished to ask the First Lord of the Admiralty whether any official despatches have been re ceived relating to the loss of her Majesty's steam-vessel Tiger; and whether, if so received, or when received, there will be any objection to such despatches being made public ? Sir J. GRAHANI said the Board of Admiralty had re ceived an account from the first lieutenant of the Tiger of the circumstances which led to the loss of tile Tiger. All the circumstances which really interested the public had been made known through accustomed channels; but in the report from the first lieutenant, there were certain questions of a professional character relating to the loss of the vessel, which must become the subject of investigation before a court martial, and is the opinion of the Bard of Admi ralty the publication of these details would prejudice the BLOCKADE OF RUSSIAN PORTS. Mr. HORSFALL asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether it was interded to establish an effective blockade of the Russian ports in the Balti the Black, and the White Sea, or whether there was to be a distinction in favour of foreign flags. Sir J. GRAHAM had already stated more than once that an effective blockade of Russian ports had been esta blished in the Baltic and the Black Sea, but none had been instituted in the White Sea though he believed such a blockade was in contemplation by the French Govern ment. The blockades would be relaxed in favour of no flags whatever. THE STAR. Mr. WILLIAMS wished to draw the attention of the right hon. baronet to a report which had appeared in a morning urint relative to her Majesty's ship Star. This vessel had just returned into port from foreign service, and on its being communicated to the crew that the ship would not be paid off, but . that she would be re fitted for service in the Baltic, they held a council between decks, and signed a red robbin, calling upon the Board of Admiralty to change their commander, on the ground that he had been guilty of gross cruelty towards them. It appeared that scarcely one of the men had esc..ped flogging, and none of them so flogged had received less than four dozen lashes each. Sir J. GRAHAM said there was no truth in this re port, but in consequence of an annonymous letter which was sent to the Board of Admiralty, an inquiry was insti tuted into the conduct of the commander, and it was found that, although it had been indiscreet, it was yet not wholly indefensible. Arrangements had been made to appease the fears of the crew, and the ship was now refitting for active service. THE POLICE BILL. Captain SCOBELL asked the Secrecary of State for the Home Department, whether a return (ordered to be laid on the table of the house, about three months ago) of the number, cost, &c. of the police force in each city anti borough in England and Wales, will be so rendered, and be in the hands of members previous to the second reading of the Police Bill being moved. Lord PALMERSTON promised that the return should be forthcominc, before the s econ d rea di ng. Mr. M. GIBSON ° thought. there would be little chance of carrying the bill this session, but, at the same time, be should be glad to know when it was proposed to take the second reading. He also wisted to know when the noble lord intended to bring in his'promised bill to give the rate payers of counties a control over the expenditure. Lord PALMERSTON obset ved hat as to fixing the day when the second reading would come on, that must depend, of course, upon the progress of the other business of the house, which was of a more pressing nature, and after the experience of last night it was impossible to say when many bills before the house would be brought on. But it un doubtedly was his intention to ask the house to pass the Police Bill into a law; he should be ready to hear any ob jections that might be made to any particular parts of the bill, and those objections should receive his best attention. With regard to the other measure, such a bill was pre pared, and whenever he saw a chance of bringing it in he should avail himself of it. YOUTHFUL OFFENDERS BILL. Sir J. TROLLOPE asked the right hon. hart. when he roposed to bring in the Youthful Offenders Bill, of which le had given notice. Lord - PALMERSTON said that was a question which required a good deal of consideration. Some doubts had been started with regard to the necessity of such a bill, as the object could be accomplihed without any new law. However, at present he was not prepared to say what could be done. THE BALLOT. Mr. HENRY BERKELEY then rose to ask for leave to bring in a bill to cause the votes of the electors of Great Britain and Ireland to be taken by way of ballot at Parliamentary elections. The hon. member commenced by complimenting Lord John Russell on the persevering and consistent course of his advocacy of the Jewish claims of admission to Parliament —a course which he contended entitled him (Mr. Berkeley) to perse vere for so long a time in endeavouring to obtain that protection for the voter in the exercise of his electoral franchise which could only be afforded him by the ballot. As a strong argument in favour of the ballot, he would refer the house to those blue books, which ought to be called black books, the reports of the numerous election committees, who sat last session on the sins of the last general election. The hon. member then read part of the i evidence taken by the Cork Election Committee. The evi -1 dence which took place at that election he attributed to i the want of the ballot, by which the voters were com pelled by the pressure from without to vote against their own convictions. They had the best reason to know that the ballot, wherever it had been tried, had succeeded. America had been cited as a triumphant example of of the failure of the ballot. Facts would show exactly the reverse, In America the ballot is enforced in 29 States out of 31 States. The elections begin at 10 o'cloek in the morning, and end at two, and nothing can be more peaceable or orderly. The same peaceful results of election by ballot were found to take place in Switzerland, Holland, and Belgium. France afforded a brilliant example of the working of the ballot; yet bad men in that country made a tool of it, and tied it round the neck of Louis Napoleon. He did not forget that Lord Panmure, then in the Whig Ministry, declared that he had hitherto supported the ballot, but that he should no longer support it, because the ballot had made Louis Napoleon to be elected Emperor, and the Times newspaper, echoing the same no bl e sen ti men t s, em b a l med it in a leader. (Laughter.) He had been told he ought to give up the ballot because the Government had given up the Reform Bill. Ho did not understand that argu merit at all. They might as well be told they should not go into Ocotland to shoot grouse because Lord Aberdeen did not wear the peilibeg. (Loud laughter.) The constituencies in Defoe's time were nearly as cor rupt as they were now. Defoe said they had than (in his day) lately had passed two or three sharp laws, passed to prevent bribery and corruption at elections ; but never were those practices so barefaced before, as they be• came atter the passing of these laWs: (Hear, hear.)

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 time, and he thought it a good one, and it was his inteetion that it should be extended to all the Goveinmont 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.) He could not seriously deal with the alarm of the hon. 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 combine:don of punishment with reformation. They wanted to avail themselves of the 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 better man, and less likely to be dangerous to the community. How were they to do it ? The Pro testant bad 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 oision ; but a Catholic priest did not come into contact with 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 ha,d 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 the 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 theii 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. CROSSLE I opposed the • vote on the ground that the State ought not to pay any sect whatever for religious instruction. Mr. HOitSFALL could not on principle consent to the proposed vote, because it involved the teaching of error. It, moreover, involved a violation of theconstitution. And ho 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 admitted 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, read returns relative to s e vera l p r i sons , which he 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. B2sides the Church of England there was, therefore, nobody to perform the service but the Roman Catholics • and, performing the work, they natur a lly as k e d 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 This 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." Ho was aware that there were other grants to Roman Catholic priests; but this being a new vote, he felt it right to make a stand upon it. (Hear, bear.) His simple object in opposing it was to raise a Protestant voice in that house. (Hear, hear.) lie believed that to vote a suns 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 he 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 CHAIRSSAN 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 prbposed 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 Governm en t m i g ht b e, th e h ouse was not. Mr.DISRA.ELI 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, would obviate all difficulty. A discussion then took place, in which Mr. M`Malion, 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 minutes past 1) adjourn. Mr. DI iRAELI 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 1.! o'clock, until the hon. member for eorsetshire (Mr. Ker Seymer) had been communicated with. That communication bad been made, and the bon. 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 be 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 Shea) 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 he moved these bills that any one was intending to oppose them. In committee there woul Ibe 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 great 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. char The ed order for th e bill b eing committed was then dill- I g. MORNING SITTINGS. On the motion of Mr. DISRAELI, the twelve o'clock orders for this day were 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 at this period of the session, considering that there was no pressure of public business. Lori 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 jnoved that the Lands Improve ment Bill should be committed on this day week, at twelve o'clock, but this motion meeting with opposition, it was ultimately withdrawn. The house then adjourned at ten minutes to 2 o'clock.
