The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, in reply to Mr. Danby Seymour, said that it was the intention of Government to propoie to Parliament to build a new gallery for the national collection of pictures, but the consideration of the subject was not sufficiently advanced to enable him to say whether the designs would be open to public competition. He entered into some explana tions respecting the newly-purchased Minden Gallery, and added that there was no intention to give the Royal Academy notice to leave the apartments hitherto lent them. The arrival of the pictures of the Minden Gal lery had been unavoidably delayed fur some weeks, and they were at present deposited in one of the rooms in the basement of the National Gallery. There were about 60 pictures in the collection, and it was not intended— for they were not worthy of it—to place the whole of then: in the National Gallery. Mr. Dyce had been for some time.engaged in the examination of the collection, and his report would shortly be presented to the trus tees, stating which in his opinion were best adapted to form a portion of a national gallery. RUSSO-DUTCH LOAN. Lord D. STUART called the attention of the house to the.termillation of all obligation on the part of this country, in consequence of the conduct of Russia, to continue to make any payments on account of the Rus so-Dutch Loan, and he moved a series of resolutions, the effect of which was that Russia, by her neglect to maintain at the Sulina mouth of the Dahuhe the works necessary to prevent obstacles to its navigation, had vio lated the treaty of Vienna and injured the commerce of this country; that upwards of 4,000,0001. had already been paid towards the principal and for the interest of the Russo• Dutch Loan, and that 3,386,0001. more would be required ; and that, inasmuch as the convention of 1831 between England and Russia secured the payment -to the latter part of her old Dutch debt, in consideration of her adhesion to the general arrangements of the Con gress of Viennas the withdrawal by Russia of that adhe sion made it proper to suspend the payments. His lord ship supported these propositions in a speech of great length, most of it delivered to a house of considerably fewer than forty members. Mr. DIGBY SEYNIOUR seconded the motion. Sir W. MOLES\VORTH resisted the proposition. For two centuries it had been the custom of civi Heed nations to pay debts due to an enemy, the single exception being in the, case of the Silesian loan, a case in whi c h th e con d uct of the King of Prussia had been pronounced to be contrary to the law of nations. If the Emperor of Russia had money in eur funds at this time he would receive the dividends thereon, and there was really no difference between such a case and that in question. The desired backsliding and departure from the rule dictated by the spirit of the age ought to be most strongly vindicated. He admitted the general violation of the treaty of Vienna, which, had we not been at war, would have been a cams belli, birt neither that nor war would justify the required repudiation • and he contended that the Emperor of Russia had not committed the specific violation requisite to in validate our agreement. Sir William showed that we had purchased from the Netherlands, the Cape of Good Hope, Demerara, Essequibo, and Berbice, on condition of applying a part of the purchase money in the discharge of the obligation in question ; and that in 1831 we had expressly purchased the assent of Russia to the new arrangement between Belgium and Holland, and that we were bound to continue our pay ments, except in the case of Russia ceasing to concur in our policy in regard to those countries, a contingency which had not arisen. We were, therefore, engaged by treaties arid acts of Parliament to fulfil our obligations ; and he made an eloquent appeal to the house to resist obscure b p s i c •tp u i r o e si d ti e t l t e n z w a t hch eiof some have eld bankrupt mcoe better from h transatlantic s state supported Moles worth, lteslle . than the representative of a great metropolitan con s ti tuency.

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL explained that Mr. Seymour's energy was entirely thrown away, as he bad misconceived the arguments.of Sir W. Molesworth. He briefly re -stated the case, which he characterised as•rst , perfectly clear and simple one. The debt did not rest upon the treaty of Vienna, and no infraction of that treaty crude invalidate our liability.

PAR Pv- __ . The Earl of SHAFTESBURY.—In moving for the papers and correspondence of which I have given notice, I must take the opportunity of vindicating myself and my honour against a charge which has been made by another person in another place seriously affecting my personal honour and character for veracity. I feel, my lords, that it may be of little importance to the world at large what may be the character of so humble an in dividual as myself, but, as a member of your lordships' house, it is a matter of some importance that I should stand erect before you, and either refute the charge which has been made, or submit to the contumely which its confirmation would inflict upon me. lam able, my lords, to give the flattest possible contradiction to every item of the charge which has been made. It will be within your recollection that some time ago I made a statement in which I mentioned that during the trans actions of the Board of H ea lth a meeting was held at which a certain noble lord was present, at whi c h I myse lf was present, an d at which other commissioners were present—that the noble le lord mad e a proposal, and that T that prop osa l f ell. noble lord stated that it fell in consequence of not bein assertion tha ti t never was that the term " secondeg'''ec)n(leodc.curilyd was seconded—that the t t e h r li a m e t v . n e ever was used—that the tweamseztmbaydme yysetrdlayn propo-al was made , opposition to this, I heard a it by the noble lord in these woartad "He had gone to the board on se v eral to them, for example, on the 30th of Jan occasions; h e w en t request of the Government in a specialnery, 1851, at the the Board of Health on this subject.

Mark the words ! This is the way in which the noble lord strikes down another man's honour, and endeavours to erect his own. He solemnly affirms, in opposition to my former statement, that I was not present. In the lint place, I give my word of honour solemnly, and in the most emphatic manner that a gentleman can do, and under the most solemn obligations of an oath, that I was present. • I give my word of honour that I was the per son who spoke upon the subject, and (said not a word by specifyi n gth e date .

The remaining clauses were agreed to, and the house resumed. BILLS OF EXCHANGE (No. 2) BILL. On the motion for going into committee on this bill, Mr. GEACH said this bill involved a very important principle ; it purposed to assimilate the law of England with regard to bills of exchange with that of Scotland, and if it passed, a party registering a bill of exchange would be enabled to obtain an immediate judgment against the acceptor in the event of the bill being dishonoured. The trailing system of Scotland was so widely different to what it was in England • that the two laws could not be assimilated with safety ; for instance, in Scotland, it was the in variable rule to make bills of exchange payable at local bankers, who retained possession of them with oat putting them in circulation; but in R,gland the practice was different, because it was the rule and not the exception to make bills payable at some banking house in London, whose hands it did not reach until it had been in extensive circulation. Little difficulty was experienced in Scotland in renewing bills of exchange, but without the breathing time which the existing English system allowed, but which this bill would abolis ~ traders havi rig dishonoured bills of exchange running might be suddenly drive n i n t o b an k r uptcy, al though with aslight indulgence their estate might be made to yield 305. in the pound.

ELECTRICITY AND ITS USES : NEW DISCOVERY.—In the last number of the Revue des .Deux Mendes is an ex• cellent a rt i cle, entitled ~ L'Electricitd Ouvrierb," by M. Babinet, member o f the French Institute, enumerating the various effects already produced through the agency of electricity, whether artistic , scientific , or industrial.

The whole article is one which every lover of electricity will read with pleasure, and does infinite credit to M. Babinet. At present the chief, and almost only means em -V°Yed in Ittit.the various uses to which electricity e has been applied, is the Voltaic agency, which is of too troublesome an d expens i ve a character to admit o f e l ec . tricity b e i ng more universa ll y use d t h an i t i s, and un doubtedly wou ld b e, were ' s, cheaper and easier m e di um obtainabl e .
