ONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, The prospectus of " The London" Hotel Com pany has been issued with a proposed capital of £55,000 in 5,500 of £lO each, £1 payable on ap plication, and £4 on allotment. The association is formed for the purpose of converting "The London" into a company, under the provisions of the Act of 1862. The Directors refer to the fact that there is no class of enterprise which derives greater benefit from the application of the new act than that of public places of entertainment, and quote as illustrations the success of the London Tavern and Albion Hotel, which were carried into operation only six months since, and the shares now stand at 50 per cent. premium, while the business has in.. creased to an unprecedented extent, which they attribute to the combined interest of so many shareholders. There is no doubt but that " The Landon" has attained a most satisfactory position under its late able management, and that its profits have been highly remunerative, and by this organi sation may be considerably augmented. The pro perty proposed to be purchased consists of the lease of the premises for 33 years, with good-will, furni. tare, &c., at the priced .04,500, one-half of which is to be taken in shares, with £7 credited thereon. The present manager has agreed to undertake the Management of the company's business for three years for one-half the profits after the payment of a 121 per cent. dividend gu iranteed on all the capital invested. The gentlemen who form the board are eminently practical and responsible men, Whose names will inspire confidence in the project. Two o'CLock.

At the first meeting of shareholders to-day of the Public Works Credit Company, the directors recommended that, in addition to the bonus of £1 per share already proposed, a dividend at the rate of 10 per cent. per annum, free of income tax, be declared.

One of the largest private undertakings that have yet been converted into a limited joint-stock com pany is the Ebbw Vale Collieries and Ironworks, which are to be constituted as the Ebbw Vale Com pany, and for which a capital of £4,000,000 in shares of £5O each is required. An idea of the ex tent of the property may be gathered from the fact that it comprises 3,254 acres of freehold land and Mints, 2,137 acres of leasehold mines, 700 acres of mines held under the Crown, and about nine miles in length of the spathose iron ore veins in Somer setshire, together with 2,000 houses and cottages, accommodating a population of 15,000 persons. The rentals from land, farms, and houses amount to £14,000 a year; the collieries produce 850,000 tons of coal annually, which could at little extra cost be increased to 1,500,000 ; and the yield of ironstone is 280,000 tons, which could be increased to 450,000. There are 23 blast furnaces on the estate, 16 of Which are in operation,yielding at present annually about 130,000 tons of pig iron. About 90,000 tons of rails and finished iron are sold annually, which, with the present pant, could be raised to 120,000. The valuations of the property have been carefully made, and the magnitude its operations has attained is stated to be the only reason for its conversion into a public company.

(Betore Mr Commissioner Goulburn.) Tit RE COL, WAVOR , --APPLICATION FOR AN ALLOWANCE TO THB BANKRUPT. Mr Sargood applied in the case of Col. Waugh, for an allowance to the bankrupt, on the ground that he was in a state of utter destitution, having been wholly occupied in assisting Messrs. Brown and Dubois, the accountants appointed by the Court to prepare the accounts. He (Mr Sargood) urged that there was a very large sum in hand available for a dividend, a great portion of which had been derived from Mr Waugh's private estate. His Honour doubted whether he had any authority to make any order after such a lapse of time since the surrender (March, 1863), especially as the bankrupt had taken £5OO when he went away. Mr Linklater, for the assignees, said he was willing to leave the matter entirely in the hands of the Court, and the assignees would be perfectly satisfied. His Honour asked whether there was any instance where an allowance had been made after such a lapse of time? ' Mr. Sargood said he was not prepared to show one, but this was an exceptional case. His Honour said that he did not feel at all inclined to decide the point—the assignees had throughout acted with the greatest fairness and candour, and had also done their strictest duty to the creditors at large—he should leave the matter entirely in their hands, but probably, if the bankrupt was so wholly destitute as he said, they might consider his application favourably. Mr Munu appeared to oppose on behalf the Eastern Banking Corporation, but, as they had not proved their debt, his Honour said he could not hear him. Mr Sargood suggested £1 a week from the time of sur• render, and up to the time of last examination. Mr Linklatet said he would communicate with the , assignees on the subject. POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Days MARLBOROUGH STREET. A WoULD•BE SUICIDE,—EmiIy Yates, a married woman, of 15, Saville-street, Marylebone, was charged before Mr Tyrwhitt with attempting to commit suicide by cutting her hroat. Ito Lea Pitt, 171 E, said that yesterday he was called to 8, Saville-street, and informed that the prisoner bad attempted to cut her throat. A Scripture reader, who had gone for a constable, on his return give him a razor which he had taken from tke prisoner. The prisoner had been drinking, and there was a female, 85 years of age, with her in the room. • Prisoner said she had been drinking with some other women, and they pledged her shawl and then beat her, and this caused her to attempt to destroy herself. She was sorry for what she had done, but would not repeat the act. The person in the room with her was her mother. In answer to Mr Tyrwhitt, Inspector Garforth said the Scripture reader was not present. The prisoner said her husband worked at Chelsea, and that if she were allowed to go she would not offand again. Mr Tyrwhitt observed that he could not let her go with out some kind of security that she would not do such a thing again. if her husband came for her she would be given up to him ; if not, she would be remanded. A DESERVING CASE.—lnspector Walker of the C Divi sion, introduced to Mr Tyrwhitt this morning a poor widow named Ann Palpey, and stated that her husband had died a few days ago after two hours' illness; that she was left with five children, the eldest only 10 3 ears of age, and that she was at present without means of gaining a livelihood for them. Mr Walker further stated that Mrs Palpey had been known to him for some years, and that she was a very deserving person. Mr Tyrwhitt afforded Mrs Palpey some assistance from the poor box, for which she seemed very grateful. WESTMINSTER. ATTEMPT TO STAB,—Catherine Cook, a middle-aged woman, was charged before Mr Selfe with attempting to stab Mary Neville, a married woman, in Manor-street, Chelsea. It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner and the prosecutrix lived in Manor-street, and that an ill feeling existed between them. Between 8 and 9 o'clock last night some words took place between them. In the course of the dispute, the prisoner, who had a knife in her hand, made a plunge at prosecutrix with it, and it cut her slightly upon the nose. The prosecutrix fell, and when she was on the ground, she raised the knife, and was about to stab the prosecutrix with it. She was prevented by her(prosecutrix's) husband from doing her an injury, as he held her hand, but in doing so his own hand was cut. The husband of the prosecutrix said that had the knife not have been blunt he had no doubt but that murder would have been committed. Mr Selfe—What is the cause of the quarrel ? The husband replied that he did not know, and he stated that his wife had been a good friend to her. During the scufila the prisoner aimed a blow at him with the knife. The knife was taken away from her with a great deal of diffi culty. She had had three months' imprisonment for a previous assault. The knife Cs table knife) was produced. Mr Selfo—Did the prisoner say anything when she used the knife ? Husband—No, Sir, she was in such a rage. The prisoner did not deny the assault, when Mr Selfe observed that she was a most dangerous woman, and that her temper must be controlled. In her passion one of these days she would commit murder. She was sent for two months to the House of Correction. pressioxu Meeting of the bonservative Party.

He commenced his observations by stating that during tho last two or three sessions several attacks had been made in Par liament upon the Established Church of this country, but that, owing to the firm front that had been opposed to them, they had been discontinued, and he might say they were now abandoned. He would not, he said, trouble them by referring to the 800 pages of papers on the Denmark question which had been laid before Parliament, or with the 161 pages of protocols and papers which had been issued that morning, but would content himself with re viewing in a very few words the course of proceeding which had been adopted by the noble earl the Secretary for Foreign Affairs (Earl Russell) and ter the no3le lord at the head of her Majesty's Government with regard to Denmark. Among the most remarkable of the statements which had been made by her Majesty's Government to Parliament during the discussions which had taken place on the Danish question :was, that in certait contingencies Den mark would not be allowed to enter upon the contest with Germany alone. It appeared, however, that as matters progressed, the ground was shifted, and it was stated that in the event of certain contingencies— the Federal execution, for instance—action might Le taken, The execution, however, did take place, and next there was the invasion of Schleswig, It was then intimated that Frederickstadt was to be regarded as a sacred spot. It was, however, taken possession of by the German forces, and finally a portion of Jutland also, Set nothing was done to induce Denmark to believe that the promises held out to her would be realised. He (the Earl of Derby) would not attempt to say that England ought or ought not to have interfered by force of arms; but what he did say was that her Majesty's Government, having conveyed a hope to Denmark that, in the event of certain things occurring, England would stand by her side, the natural inference was that Denmark had been misled by those representations, and that she now had reason to complain that she found herself deserted by those by whom she had been given reason to hope that she would receive material assistance. He did not mean it to be understood, nor did he wish to con vey, that his view was that England ought to interfere by force of arms; but that had not been the tone taken by leer Majesty's Government. The noble lord (Lord Palmerston), in his recent declaration in the House of Commons, had still maintained the same tone as that which had led Denmark to believe that she would receive support from England —that she would not be allowed to stand alone in the struggle ; because he said that, in tke event of Copen hagen being bombarded, or the Ring taken a prisoner of war, it might become necessary to consider the matter, or to recommend a change of policy, But from the ex perience of the past there was ne reason to believe that the noble lord might not, in view of t h es e events having actually taken place, allege that some fresh contingency should yet arise before he could act, He (the Earl of Derby) contended that this vacillating and inconsistent policy was discreditable to the Government, and was calcu lated to lower the country inarneasutably, to sink its renown and lessen its influence in th e eyes of Europe He was not himself blind to the consequences which must result to England if such interference in the affairs of Denmark should take place; but it was to be supposed that the Go vernment who conveyed th e id ea that they were disposed to lend them military aid s h ould have consi d ere d th e con sequences before they mad e such a declarat i on . In the part which he and those wh o acted with him th o ught they should take, it was considered right to deal with the Danish question by itself, and not to mix it up with the Italian question, or with the unhappy internecine strife" which was now waging at the other side of tee Atlantic. The Danish question should be dealt with by itself, and the resolution which he was navy about to su b m it f or th e consideration of the me e ti ng would s h o plY be confined to' an expression of opi n i on upon the coureia of conduct and the policy which h a d been pursued by h er Ma jesty's Government, Th e G overnment had appeare d de sirous to leave it to the h ouse to expressan opil? ion, and they bad endeavoured to impose the duty of elicitlnh that opinion upon the Opposition; but he was happy to say that neither his right hon. friend (Mr Disraeli) nor himself had fallen into that trap. The noble earl, in continuation, said that whilst he did not desire to convey to them that he entertained a positive certainty that the resolution would carry with it a majority of the House of Commons, yet he solemnly and sincerely believed that it would carry with it the approving voice of the country. Whether it carried with it the voice of the House of Commons or not, he and the sixteen friends who lead carefully considered the reso lution with him, and who h a d honoured him with their confidence on that occasi on . f e l t i t to be their bounden duty to elicit the opinion of the 110125 e of Commons on the acts of the Administration. The noble earl then read to the meeting the resolution which Mr Disraeli subsequently gave notice of in the House of Commons. It was received with loud and repeated cheering by the meeting. Mr. dint next addressed the meeting. The hon. gentle- man said his feeling was that the resoiution should embody an expression iii faVogr of armed int erference on behalf of Denmark, The observation was receiv e d w ith marks of disapproba tion, and ' The Earl of DgRBT said he h o p ed that the hon. gentle man would have a full opportunity of expressing his feel ings upon the subject. The n o bl e l ord added that he must respectfully differ from the h en , getitlemqn, because if the suggestion he had made were adored, and that such an expression as he had advocat e d were embodied in the reso lution, the Opposition, in tho event of their coming into power, would be bound to carry on warlike operations in favour of Denmark,and this they w ele not prepare d to bi n d themselves to. An HON. MEMBER, representing a northern coun t y , sa id he believed that the feeling in his pan, of the country was entirely in favour of peace. lie reminded the meeting that the constituencies of the country would narrowly watch the conduct of their representatives. From all that he was able to learn he believed that, whoever the country might think of the policy of her Majesty's Government in refer ence to the language held by than towards Denmark, it was decidedly in favour of maintainin g a peaceful attitude. He apprehended, after the statement made in the House of Commons by Lord Palmerston, tbet if a resolution such as that now submitted to tho meeting wsro carried against him in the house, it would be regarded as a demonstration in favour of war, and to this he (the lion. member) was entirely opposed. The Earl cf DEnay explainedt4st, in his opinion, the resolution was not drawn so as to convey any such im- This statement was received vith expressions of appro bation, and appeared to be acquiceccd in generally by the meeting. Lord Ur.s2.l - Lanoz Mid tilt be was not abont to trouble the meeting at any lengtg with opinions of his own, and had only to express his general concurrence in what had fallen from the noble earl. He was anxious to know on what day it was proposed to move the resolution. The Earl of DERBY observed that as that duty would de- volve upon his right hon. friend (Mr Disraeli), he would leave him to answer the question. Mr DISRAELI said that his first intention was to give notice of the motion that evening for Thursday, and on Thursday to submit it to the house, if that day should prove convenient to the Government. On further reflection, however, he thought that perhaps Thursday would ba too early a day, He believed Lord Palmerston was prepared to give every facility for proceeding with the debate, and under these circumstances he thought the more judicious course would be to give notice that evening in the House of Commons, and to move the resolution on Monday evening. Sir .loHw WAL SI( said that he was adverse to an oppo sitien which would indulge in merely party views, but in the resolution proposed by the noble earl he entirely concurred. The hon. baronet was expressing his opinions on the subject at considerable length, when there was a general movement in the direction of the door. Mr KER subsequently essayed to address the meeting. but was lett with a very limited audience. New Treaty between Japan and France. PARIS, June 27. The following is the official text of the new treaty concluded between the French Minister for Foreign Affairs and the Japanese Ambassadors The preamble states that his Majesty the Emperor of the French and his Majesty the Emperor of Japan, desiring to consolidate by proofs of mutual confidence the relations of friend- ship and commerce existing between the two countrieF, have resolved to regulate, by common agreement and special arrangement, the differences which have arisen between their Governments since 1862. The articles of the treaty follow ;: "1. In compensation for the hostile act committed in Slily, 1863, against the ship Kien-Cheng, of the Imperial navy,which wasfired upon in the province of Nagato, the Japanese Government engages to pay into the hands of the French Minister at Jeddo, three months after the return of their Excellencies the Ambassadors of the Taycoon to Japan, an in demnity of 140,000 Mexican piastres, 100,000 of which ate to be paid by the Government, and 40,000 by the authorities of the province of Nagato. " 2. The Japanese Government further engages, within three months following the return of their Excellencies the Ambassadors of the Taycoon to Japan, to raise the impediments now encountered by French ships desirous of passing the Straits of Simonosaki, and to keep the passage free for ever ; having recourse, if necessary, to the employment of force, and, if requisite, acting in concert with the commander of the French naval force. "3. It is agreed between the two governments that, in order to facilitate the regular development of commercial exchange between France and Japan, the reductions of the tariff granted in the last-men tioned empire by the Government of his Majesty the Taycoon to foreign trade shall be maintained in fa vour of articles imported by French traders, or under the French flag, pending the entire duration of the treaty concluded at Yeddo between the two coun tries on the 9th October, 1858. " So long, therefore, es the treaty remains in oree, the Japanese Customhouse will admit free the following articles used for the preparation and package of tea :—Leaf lead, lead solder, rush or straw mattiug, rattans, oils for painting, indigo, gypsum, pans, and baskets. An ad valorem duty of only 5 per cent. will be levied upon the import of wines and spirits, white sugar, iron and tin plates, machines, and detached pieces of machines, linens, clocks, watches and watch chains, glass and medicines, and a duty of 6 per cent. upon looking glasses and mirrors, porcelains, jewellery, per fumery, soaps, arms, cutlery, books, p a p ers , engrav . ings, and drawings. "4. This arrangement is to be considered as form ing an integral part of the treaty of October 9, 1858, between France and Japan, and is immedi ately to become valid without the necessity of its being submitted to the ratification of the respective sovereigns." The signatures follow. In addition to the above arrangement the Japanese Ambassadors, charged by the Tycoon to offer to the Emperor's Government compensation for the attack of which a Fronoh officoop, Lion t .nnnt 0.232 was tlio victim, have engaged to pay an in demnity of 35,000 dollars (192,000 francs) for the benefit of that officer's family. This payment has already been made. The Ambassadors further atated.that their Government would take all neces sary steps to discover and punish the murderers. STATE OF TRADE. MANCHESTER, June 28.—The statements made by Ministers in Parliament last night have re moved a load of anxiety from the minds of many business men, and there has been a more cheerful 'eeling in this market to-day. Confidence. how has not been restored to an extent which causes any great improvement. This is more espe cially the case with regard to cloth. There has been a little more inquiry as to the prices which manufacturers are prepared to accept, both for goods from stock and goods to make, but it has not led to much actual business. Where sales have been made of cloth fair prices have generally been obtained, but the sales have mostly been of small quantities, and there have not been many of them. Manufacturers are generally rather firm, and there is no change in prices as compared with last week. Some people think the tone of the market promises better for business eventually, but what has been done to-day has certainly disap pointed the expectations of sellers. In shipping yarns there has been more doing for the principal markets, and an advance has been obtained of about id per lb., compared with what spinners would have accepted yesterday. In some few cases id per lb. advance has been obtained. The market for these yarns closes very firm, and buyers seem more disposed to enter into engagements than for some time past. In home trade yarns we have also had a rather better market, and for some of the better kinds a little advance in price has been obtained. Lower counts and qualities have also been steadier i n 1. - irice. A moderate amount of business is re ported in home trade yarn. LEEDS, 28.--The market to-day has been an ex cellent one for all; lasses of seasonable goods. Some large sales took place ~7f coloured goods, both of meltons and the still heavies kinds; and manufac turers of such fabrics have het , °Y engagements in hand. Orders are not at all scare.'' and it is un doubted that the tone of feeling among :he clothi ers is very much improved in consequence of , the pre vious evening's proceedings in Parliament. 'a rn .her is still an animated inquiry for black unions, ane supers maintain a firm position. Cloaking's are sought after, and the home demand for fancy coat ings is large, and several Continental houses have been selecting low meltons to a fair extent, but just now there is a pause in the efflux of goods to America. ever, NOTTINGHAM, 28.—At this Exchange hall today there was a fair attendance, and an advance of 2d per lb. was asked on all descriptions of lace yarns ; the rise, however, was not generally paid. Hosiery yarns had also an upward tendency. Silks very firm. The demand for brown nets was slow, but recent rates were fully realized. ROCHDALE, 27.—The business done at to-day's market has been pretty good, considering th at there was but a scanty supply, owing to manufac turers being generally engaged upon large orders. The dearness of Yorkshire goods still continues, but it has not the effect of deterring purchasers from making selections of all kinds. The flannel trade in the warehouses keeps brisk. The demand, how ever, is more for fancy goods than for fine plains. It was the sentiment of many at market to-day that, should a continental war occur, it would ani mate the trade of this district very much, for some time at least. INQUEST ON MR. WASHINGTON WILKES.—Dr. Lankaster, coroner for Central Middlesex, and a jury ae sembled at the Elephant and Castle, Camden Town, last evening to inquire into the death of Mr Washington Wilkes, aged 38. Dr. H. C. Andrews, who had made a post-mor tem examination of the body, said the cause of death was serous apoplexy, no doubt produced by the excitement of his speaking. The jury ultimately returned a verdict "That decaased died from the effects of congestion of the braiu I , rodum/ from sudden emitvzimt." THAMES. EXTENSIVE AND DARING ROBBERY. —James aged 40, and described as a labourer, of 92, Eastfield-street, Limehouse, was brought before Mr Partridge charged with stealing 430 yards of red cambric, valued £36, from a barge called The Sisters, on the Regent's Canal., Mr William Adams, an inspector of Thames police, said he saw the prisoner on Haggerstone-bridge, in the parish of Shoreditch, yesterday evening. The prisoner was look ing at a barge called The Sisters, laden with valuable mer chandise, coming along the Regent's Canal towards the bridge. He followed the barge and kept the prisoner in view, for he knew that a robbery was intended. At last he went to Eastfield-street, Limehuuse, the eastern end of which looked on to the canal. There was a fence at the end of the street. He saw the prisoner leave the barge and come towards the fence. A man followed the prisoner with a large sack on his back containing something bulky. The prisoner climbed over the fence into Eastfield-street, and the man behind him pitched the sack and its contents over the fence. The prisoner immediately raised the sack from the ground, put it on his shoulder, and was proceed. ing towards his own house when he seizEd the prisoner, and assisted by a constable took the load to the station house. The sack contained 20 pieces of red cambric, each piece containing 24 yards. The value of it was is 6d per yard, and it was in charge of the Great Northern Railway Company for exportation to India. A Solicitor, who appeared for the prosecution, raid he would offer no more evidence today, and asked for a remand. Mr Partr idge —Certainly. The prisoner is remanded for a week. LOSING AND FINDING A £5 NOTE.—Alexander Good body, who said he was a tailor, was brought before Mr. Partridge charged with stealing a £5 note. On the night of Thursday, the 15th of the present month, Mr. Henry Masson, of 56, Smith-street, Stepney, lost a£6 note between the hours of 9 and 13 o'clock. He thought it was abut half-past nine when he missed the note in Smith • street, a few yards from his own door. It was wrapped up in a tax paper and fell out of a book. Mr. Masson gave information of his loss to the police, and a notice was sent to the Bank of England, where the note was paid in on the 23d of June by Truman and Hanbury, the brewers, who received it from Mr. Edwin 13artictt, the landlord of the White Horse publia house, gnthr o d, at the corner of Stepney-green. Mr Bartlett said he cashed the note for the prisoner on the morning of Monday, the 20th of June. The prisoner indorsed the note as follows;--Mr Goodbody, No. 3, Henry street, Stepney. Mr Richard Adie Barley, clerk in the Bank of England, producad a cancelled £5 note, No. 82,189, April 16, 1864, which Mr. Masson identified as Ihe one he had lost. James Briden, a police sergeant, No. 4 IC, said that he took the prisoner into custody this mcrning, and he said that he took the note on Hampton Racecourse cn the after noon of the 16th of June, at 5 o'clock, in payment of a bet. The prisoner—Yes, I took it at 4 o'clock--the day Caller Oa won the Queen's Plate, Mr Partridge—you took it on Hampton Racecourse fonr hours and a halt before it was lost, and did not part with it till the following Monday ? I don't believe you took it on Hampton race-course. Briden—The prisoner gave a fictitious address. Mr Pa4tridge said the prisoner was a dishonest fellow, who found the lost note, and instead of looking for the owner, whose address was on the ta4 paper, he converted it to his own use. He hued the prisoner 20s for the unlawful possession of the note, and in detanit one mouth's impri sonment, ACHROMATIC T ELESCOPE. — Messrs,Solonlons and Co. Of London) have produced a beautiful achro matic telescope, terrestrial and celestial, for the nominal sum of Lb. The instrument, in all important respects, is well adapted for all its purposes; in fact, is equal to one usually costing £7O. It shows clearly the planets and their satellites, the belts of Jupiter, the rings of Saturn, &c., ez3. The face of a man four miles and a half away, the shot marks on a target two miles distant, and the time on a clock dial ten miles dist int, are distinctly seen. The instrument has a 3-inch superior achromatic object glass, the body is metal, covered with a polished brass tube, with the accompaniment of terrestrial eye-piece, as also an astronomical eye-piece of the best construction. A. dark glass, for the San, is suit ably mounted on an appropriate portable metal tripod with pillar and stand. Its cheapness is as marvellous as its power is wonderful, and will prove a great boon to parents and those who are anxious to impart to the young, or to study themselves, the sublime science of astronomy, and not unimportant to our rifle vpluuteers during their rifle conte4s end practices, SPORTING INTELLIGENCE—Tb Is Day, CHELMSFORD RACES-THIS I IAT.

He ad mitted that the people of Ireland had too much pride to go into the workhouses, but he had no hesitation to say there was not a farmer throughout the country who would not receive outdoor relief. The pecple paid the rates, and ac cepting relief, they considered they were merely getting back a portion of what they had paid. He had himself known applicants for relief who had a thousand pounds in the bank. (Loud laughter.) Mr P. URQUHART supported the bill on account of its permissive character, and because it was only designed to meet special cases of distress. Sir R. PEEL said as the feeling of the house appeared to be against the bill, the hon. and loarned gentleman would not press it to a division. He believed the law of the two countries could not be assimilated with advantage. Mr. BLAKE denied that the impression of the house was against the bill. He thoubgt it a good one and he should therefore give it his support. He hoped his hon. friend would go to a division. (LEFT SPEAKING.) SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. CHELMSFORD RACES, TUESDAY.

Mr HENNESSY moved the second reading of this bi which ho said would give to the Poor Law Commissioners in Ireland the same permissive power now possessed by t English Poor Law Board of issuing orders for the out— door relief of the able-bodied. He contended that while the system was expensive, it oper,,ted against the morality of the people. Lord NAAS regretted the hon. member had renewed this question, which was discussed very fully at the com mencement of the session, when it was shown that a com mittee which had sat upon the subject had reported almost unanimously against the proposition proposed by the hon. gentleman. He denied that this bill would assimilate the Irish law with that of England, and contended that if it did tho English law could never work in Ireland. He believed that public opinion was altogether against the measure in Ireland, He, therefore, moved that the bill be read a second time that day three months. THE CAPE MAIL.

The Union Company's steamer Cambrian, with the above mails, has arrived here. The Cambrian left Cape Town on the 22d ult., calling at St.. Helena on the Ist, and at Ascension on the 6th inst. She brings 77 passengers, and 141 military invalids and time-expired men, with 12 women and 16 children. At the Cape great excitement was caused by the issue of a notice that importers re leasing goods from bond must give an undertaking to pay any additional duty which might be approved of by Parliament. Parliament had since passed an act increming the impost duties by 25 par cent. The validity of these proceedings i called into question. BANKRUP T S.
