Mr. HUME said he was always ashamed of being duped.—(A laugh.) The petitioner had offered to give important evidence on the subject of smuggling, but when he came before the Committee he stated a lot of rigmarole—(A laugh)—but evidently withheld the in formation which he could have given. He claimed 171. for his expenses, and he (Mr. Hume) gave him 51.; but if the thing were to be done over again he would not give him a shilling. The fact was he had been the dupe of a cunning, crafty man.—(Hear, hear, and a laugh.) He could appeal to the members of the Committee wlio were then in the House as to the value of the peti tioner's evidence. Dr. BOWRING said he never herd more worthless evidence in his life.—(Hear. hear.) Mr..DARBY said he believed that it was the gene ral opinion of the Committee that the lion. Member for Montrose had been done for the first time in his life. BANK CHARTER BILL. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. 'STANDARD.—As it is not improbable that the high easterly winds in St. George's Channel may delay our Irish expresS, conveying the report of yesterday's . proceedings in the Dublin Court of Queen's Bench, we will take the opportunity to say a few words upon the effect of the. State prosecutions in Ireland. We are well aware, thaPthe topic has for some mouths pos sessed very little interest ; but this absence of all interest in the repeal agitation, and in the destina tion of i's authors, is the very fact upon which, if we could, we would willingly fasten attention. We pray of our readers to reeal, rts faithful a retrospect as they can . of their views, their feelings, and their expectations regarding Ireland for the last fifteen or twenty years ; or, indeed, rs . long as any of us can remember. We again pray them, having done this, to say, can they point to any month within .the period of recollection during which Ireland has been so little the object of interest as during the last three/ months ; and, finally, whether the interest of which Ireland has been for so many years constantly the ob jecte has not been a painful interest—the interest of some present danger, or of some evil, the cure of which ap-. paired to be hopeless. For the first time within the memory of the existing generation, that interest is altogether extinguished. If any one now asks a question about. Ireland, it has relation to the success of the at moepheric principle, upon trial at Dalkey, or the Cashel ee - railroad, or the facilities of crossing the Irish Sea, or the capacity fur improvement of the western ports or the w estern fisheries, or perhaps it concerns the. progress of agricultural schools or educational societies ; in short, whether weak or strong, the pre - sent interest in Irish affairs is of a pleasant nature. Who .would have thought sued a change possible this time three years, when the country was threatened with an Irish rebellion if it dared to dismiss the Whig Minisnrs. ? Who would have thought such a change possible twelve short months ago, when Mr. O'Connell was arranging his campaign of monster meetings ? What would have been thought, in May, 1843, if the Attorney-General for Ireland, had he been rash enough to promise the one-half of what he has done by mildly putting the law in motion in its most simple and constitutional form ? Even that halt' would be more for the pacification of Ireland than - has been accomplished by all the statesmen that have ruled the country for half a century. This is to walk in the light of the Constitution, and to stand upon the law. The path may be often rugged, steep, and tedious, but it is direct and broad, arid it is sure in the end to bring you to victory, to whatever toils and attacks it may expose you by the way ; and it is thusi that Ml-., Smith has achieved the peace of ,his coun try. He has, single-handed, grappled with con• spirators and a conspiracy that held a long series of - governments in a slavery more or less degrading ; he has flung them down upon the threshold of the penal dungeon about to open for them ; and this not only without provoking the rebellion so often threatened as the penalty of la.yinie hands upon the inviolable person of the arch-incendiary—not only-without provoking re bellion—but, as we see contemporaneously, extinguish , ing every motive and opportunity for rebellion. This is what has been effected, by the learning and vigour of one' man, and he, perhaps, the most modest, unpre tending man that ever took su prominent a part in pub lic life. GLOBE.—The erection of the Nelson monument in Trafalgar-square has given universal satisfaction to the nation. It seemed to be an atonement to the memory of England's greatest naval hero, fur a neglect with which the metropolis was justly chargeable, in omitting to grace one of the principal thoroughfares of the chief city of the empire with a statue to* commemo rate his unrivalled deeds of heroism. The combined naval power of France and Spain was annihilated by Nelson, at the moment when Europe was in arms against us, and our existence, as a nation, was threatened by the restless ambition of the former power. Trafalgar bore the same relation to the destinies of Britain upon the ocean which Waterloo exercised over them upon the • hind. Yet Wellington, in his military character, has been honoured, as he-deserved to be, during life; and the victories he a-hiered perpetuated by statues erected to • commemorate his deeds. But forty years were suffered to elapse ere a public place in London was appropriated to a statue to remind the country which Nelson ho noured—and, we may add, which Nelson saved—of those heroic deeds that shed a glory around the name of Britain and preserved to her the undisputed empire of the seas ! Yet this tardy tribute to the heroic Nelson has been marred by an official interference as ungra cious 113 it is indefensiblts. The Committee appointed to superintend the management of the • funds subscribed tor the erection of the monument to Lord Nelson, were anxious to accompany the opening of the monument to the public eye by an entertainment, to be given on the spot, to the survivors of the old veterans who shared in the glories and the dangers of their invincible leader. Permission for that purpose had been asked and obtained from the Chief Commissioner of Woods and Forests. Circumkanees had caused a postponement of the dinner for a short time. Yesterday was selected by the Committee; and arrangements were made for the purpose. Advertisements were put forth. The Duke of Cambridge was announced as having graciously con sented to preside on the occasion. At almost the last hour, and when the arrangements were deemed complete, Lord Lincoln interfered and withdrew the consent he had' given. Placards were posted around the square on Wednesday evening, announcing that the dinner was unavoidably postponed ; and great surprise and disappointment were in consequence excited. By in terdicting the dinner on the proposed and pecu liarly appropriate spot the only spot where any special interest would be created by the dinner to the brave men who were to be entertained—Lord Lincoln has caused the project to be abandoned. The old - weather-beaten, and in many instances maimed and wounded, veterans were thus deprived of their long expected treat ; and the public were disappointed of witnessing what to every Englishman would hare been a gratifying spectacle, because associated with events which can never be recalled without emotions of a truly patriotic character and tendency. About 250 men of the crews who fought tinder Nelson's leadership are understood to be " laid up " in Greenwich Hospital —many of them bruised and battered indeed, crippled " hulks." Their number is rapidly diminishing. A few months, and they may all be removed beyond the reach of such a gratification as that which was designed for their aged frames ; and far from the disappointment and chagrin which th e aban donment of e festival they were to enjoy, and become the observed of all beholders, has occasioned to their ft clings. - The Bank Charter Bill was brought in and read a first time. POOR-LAWS. On laying the tenth Report of the Poor-law Commis sioners on the table of the House, _ _ _ Sir 3. GRAHAM gave notice, on the part of her Ma• jesty's Government, that on the first day after the recess it was his intention to move the appointment of a Select Committee for the purpose of inquiring into the Report. SUPPRESSION OF GAMBLING. Mr. C. BERKELEY wished to ask the Right Hon. Baronet, the Secretary of State for the Home Depart ment, under what order the metropolitan police force lately employed on Epsom race-course acted ; whether under orders direct from the Home-office, or from the Police Commissioners, or from the local magistrates ? He begged the Right Hon. Gentleman to understand that he did not in the least allude to the suppression of the gambling booths or the thimble-rig tables, or anything of that kind, but he alluded to the unjusti fiable interference of the police to prevent people from throwing sticks as they had been accustomed to. Sir J. GRAHAM said he was not sorry that the Hors. Gentleman had put to him this question, as it afforded him an opportunity of stating the reasons for the course which had been pursued. The House was aware that at a very early period of the session a Committee was ap pointed for the purpose of investigating this subject. The report of that Committee had been presented to the House. It contained a very strong passage with respect to the pernicious extent to which gambling on race courses was carried. In the execution of his duty he had called the attention of the police to the great ex tent to which gaming was carried on in this metropolis —an extent unknown in the other great cities of Europe. Having taken measures for its suppression in the metro polis, he had also thought it his duty, in confor mity with the report of the Committee of the House, to call the attention of the Police Commis sioners to the gaming carried on upon race-courses. He certainly was responsible for the directions which had been given to the PoLce Commissioners to interfere with the gambling in question on the race-course of Epsom. He also gave similar directions to the local magistracy, together with instructions to announce their intention of carrying out the laws. There was not any undue interference on the part of the Police Commissioners, because nothing could be more un just than the play at those games of chance. In fact, these games were not so much games of chance as games of perfect certainty, and if it were necessary, he could produce some of the dice taken by the police in the gambling-houses. There they were (said the Right Hon. Gentleman, presenting the dice in his hand across the table) and they were open to the inspection of Hon. Mem bers.—(Laughter.) They were not loaded dice, but per • fectly correct in every respect, except that with one set of them it was impossible to throw the deuce and ace—(A laugh)—and with another set, one would throw 11 and 12 with equal certainty, and certain other numbers were repeated mere than once. Also with respect to roulette games, they were equally against the party playing; so much so, that they could not be consi dered games of chance, but perfect acts of pillage and robbery.— (Hear, bear.) He could not conceive more dishonourable proceedings than the conduct such games involved ; and in this country there was no source of sorrow and ruin and crime, producing such certain and fatal effects, as that growing out of the disposition to gambling of late years. That disposition had grown to' a most alarmingly dangerous extent, and he certainly had thought it his duty to carry into execution the law on the subject. He had not gone one step beyond the law, and until he saw some expression of opinion on the part of that House adverse to the course he had . pursued, he should take every means placed in his power by the law for the purpose of checking—he had almost said exterminating this dangerous propensity. Mr. V. SMITH said, that all that had been stated by the Right Hon. Gentleman was perfectly correct except A NEW EPrtzZay.—Rotur M t - in one point. It was not correct that the report of the apprehensive here of the breaking ias ou . t of an epideiny Committee was in the hands of Hon. Members. *WO, during several weeksAs a Member of the Committee, he begged to say, the portion of the states of the Church.

Gentleman), it would be seen that they were di rected to carry into effect the existing law against gamb ling, and he trusted that not only the metropolitan po lice, but that throughout England the local magistrates would endeavour to carry the law into effect. Mr. C. BERKELEY again asked if the prohibition was to apply to the amusements he had named ? Sir J. GRAHAM said if they were pointed out under the existing law it would be carried strictly into effect. • DINNER IN TRAFALGAR-SQUARE. Mr. M. MILNES, seeing the Noble Lord the First Commissioner of Woods and Forests in his place, wished to put a question to him with respect to the public dinner to be given in Trafalgar-square to the brave veterans of Greenwich College. He believed that great expense had been incurred by the Committee, as the steamer had been hired to bring them up the river, and preparations had been made at a noighbouring hotel. At a very late period the Committee was bug. denly informed that the dinner could not take place. He was anxious to hear any explanation the Noble Lord might have to offer. • The Earl of LINCOLN said he could not give any sa tisfactory answer without explaining shortly what took place with refergnce to the subject. An application was made to him in September or October last for leave to have a dinner . given in Trafalgar. square to the Greenwich pensioners. At that time the whole area was hoarded round, and the public were shut out from the space. As he understood that the dinner was supported by the authorities of Greenwich Hospital and the Board of Admiralty, as well as by the Committee for erecting the Column, be gave the per mission required. He subsequently received an applica tion to permit the dinner to be postponed till the 2d of April, and. subsequently he received another ap plication for its postponement to this day, but in the interval the square had been opened to the public, and a deficiency having been discovered in the article used for a portion of the pavement, he could not allow the dinner to take place. He, there fore, wrote to the Committee, stating that though un willing, he was obliged to withdraw his sanction. He also felt that great inconvenience would result from such a dinner being held in the centre of the town, and in such a public place. MANCHESTER BONDING WAREHOUSE BILL. Mr. LABOUCHERE wished to know upon what principle the Government intended to act with respect to the Manchester Bonding Warehouse Bill. • The CHANCELLER of the EXCHEQUER said, that the Bill itself explained the views of the Govern- • ment on the subject. - STATE OF THE POOR. Mr. W. 0. STANLEY asked the Noble Lord the Member for Dorsetshire, who waz the Chairman of the Commission for inquiring into the State of the Poor in England and Wales, when it was likely that the Com missioners would make, their report ? Lord ASHLEY hoped the report would be made the first thing after the recess. ADJOURNMENT OF TIIE HOUSE FOR THE RECESS. _ Sir R. PEEL moved that the House at its rising do adjourn till Thursday, the 30th of May.—Agreed to. COUNTING OUT THE HOUSE. Mr. CHRISTIE wished to explain the circumstances under which he had been induced to bring forward his motion on the subject Of the Universities last evening. He had arranged with the Honourable Baronet opposite, the Member for Oxford, not to bring forward the motion after the 13th of June. And in return the Hon. Baronet the Member for Oxford said he would use his influence with Hon. Gen tlemen opposite to prevent the interruption to the de bate which took place last night. It was only necessary for him (Mr. Christie) to say that the Honourable Baronet fulfilled his promise to the utmost. I But . he (Mr. Christie) was sorry that he } had placed more reliance upon the influence of the Hon. Baronet with Members on the opposite side of the House—(Laughter)--than he was justified in doing. Several of his Hon. Friends had asked him if they might safely go to dinner—(Laughter)—and he told them that he thought they might.—(Renewed laughter.) But he. had something else to rely upon. He did rely on what he conceived perhaps erroneously conceived—to be a . proper return from the Government to gentlemen on ; that (the Opposition) side of the House, who had en tered notices of motion yesterday ; that courtesy would be extended in return for the President of the Board of Trade being allowed, at the commence ment of the business of the evening (Loud cheers)—contrary to the usual course, as a mat ter of convenience to the Government, to I take a Government order, namely, the Customs Bill—(lronical cheers)—before the notices of motion. After that, he did think the Government would have done what , they could towards keeping a House.—(Loud laugh ter.) But as it was, only four Members of the Government were in their places--(Loud cheers.) lie (Mr. Christie) certainly met the Hon. Gentleman the Under-Secretary of State for the Home department and Member for Cambridge coming into the House after it was counted out. The President of the Board of Trade was not in his place, but he (Mr. Chris tie) saw that Right Hon. Gentleman leave the House before it was counted out. lie hoped that the Right Hon. Gentleman would be able to explain this. He (Mr. Christie) saw the Right Hon. Gentleman come into the House dressed for dinner and go out again. He did not come in again, and this certainly looked like a part of a scheme. Mr. GLA DSTONE dissented. Mr. cmusnE—The Right Hon. Gentleman denied this, and of course he (Mr. Christie) must take that de nial. lie, however, knew that -the Hon. Member for Wallingford, with four or six of his associates, was engaged for some time in concocting a scheme.—(lroni cal cheers.) The Hon. Member for Wallingford stood,for some minutes at the door to prevent Members from en tering. All the Members for the University were present, and he (Mr. Christie) knew that the Honourable Baronet the Member for Oxford had a sincere wish that the discussion should go on. The reason why he resolved to bring forward the subject yesterday was, that he was under promise to the Hon. Gentleman (Sir R. Inglis), anti that there would be no attendance on Friday, owing to Members going to enjoy the Whitsun holidays. He would, however, bring it forward again next session, if some Member of greater experience did not do so, and he hoped the result would show that the attendance yesterday was no fair criterion of the importance of the subject. Mr. BLACKSTONE said he hoped the House would allow him to explain, as he had been referred to per sonally by the Honourable Gentleman. He came to the House at seven o'clock prepared to listen to the Hon. Gentleman and had remained in the House for three quarters o f hour, during all which time, he did not think there were forty Members present—(Hear, hear, hear.) Seeing that this was the case, ho was of opinion that such an important measure ought not to be brought forward in this House—(Hear, hear)—and for his own part he would much rather see it confided to a Member of longer standing.—(Hear, hear.) When he saw the House was so thin, and that the Pre mier was not in his place—(Laughter)—he thought it better that the question should not be brought forward. Colonel SIBTHORP said that if his Hon. Friend had not moved that the House should be counted, ho would have felt it his duty to do so.—(Laughter.) Sir R. PEEL said, he was sorry that his absence was a cause for counting out the House. He was certainly absent, like others, but he supposed it was necessary that he should be absent at a certain portion of the day for however short a time.--kA laugh.) But he certainly paid a greater compliment to the Hon. Gentlemen than many of his own Friends, for he could call on his Honourable Friend, the Secretary of the Treasury to show that he- had begged of him to give him (Sir R. Peel) notice when the Hon. Gentleman's , motion came on, and having a motion of importance himself on the paper, he felt as much disappointment as the lion. Gentleman when ho heard the House was counted out. He was sorry the Hon. Gentleman gave public notice that there would be no attendance on Friday night, for he (Sir R. Peel) proposed to go on with the Ecclesiastical Courts Bill. On the 3d of June he would take the Sugar question; on the 6th he pro- I posed to take the Dissenters' Chapels Bill, and on the 7th I of June he proposed to take the Scotch Parishes Bill. THE BANK. CHARTER. In answer to a question from Mr. C. BULLER, The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, that on the day after the holidays, he would name the day upon which he would bring on the second reading of the Bank Charter Bill, and take the discussion thereon. EDUCATION IN IRELAND. In answer to a question from Mr. WYNN, Lord ELIOT said that the returns moved for by the lion. Gentleman, on the subject of education in Ireland, were in course of preparation. They were very volumi nous, and as the clerks were not remunerated for the extra labour and expense to which they were put in the preparation, he hoped that gentlemen would con sider them entitled to some indulgence.—(llear.) CORN-LAWS. Mr. VILLIERS said he was obliged to postpone his motion on the corn-laws again, from the 11th till the 18th, in consequence of some Members having given notice of motions on the same day, and from their being unwilling to allow his motion to take precedence of theirs. He wished to observe that this motion was one that engaged much of the attention of the House, and that it n as extremely inconvenient to many Members on both sides not to have the day fixed for its discussion. This was now difficult to do owing to the manner in which Members were only able to give notice, and that the Government had deprived them of one of the days for the purpose. He, therefore, begged to say, that if he was prevented from bringing on the motion on the 18th, he would not take his chance again, but do what he should otherwise have been reluctant to do, which was to move it as an amendment upon the first Order of the Day for going into Supply. Sir R. PEEL postponed the Duchy of Cornwall Bill till Thursday, the 6th of June. On the motion of Mr. WYSE, a Select Committee was appointed on the subject of art-unions. Mr. COLLETT wished to know when the Govern ment would bring on the Irish Registration Bill ? Sir R. PEEL was understood to say that he could not, at present, fix any time for proceeding with the Bill. CANADA. On the Order of the Day for the House resolving itself into a Committee of Supply being moved, Mr. lIUME said he had hoped in consequence of the notice given by the Honourable and Learned Member for Bath, that the House would be occupied for some time in discussinF the state of Canada. He had, however, been disappointed by the postponement of the motion. He Would now ask the Noble Lord, the Secretary for the Colonies, 'what kind of government ex isted in Canada, or whether any administration had yet been formed ? The allegation on the part of the Ministers who had resigned was that they were not allowed to exercise the influence which they had a right to expect that they would be allowed to po3- sees ; in short, that responsible governinvst was at an end. He wished to know whether an administration had been foimed which enjoyed the confidence of thb colony? Lord STANLEY had come down to the House in the full expectation that the Hon. Member for Bath would bring on his motion, and he was not aware that any ar rangement had been made for its postponement. As the Hon. Gentleman had postponed his motion, he thought i 4 would be inconvenient to enter upon any discussion of the matter to which it referred. However, he would stale that the Administration of Canada had been formed on the principles recommended by Lord Sydenham, and sanctioned by the House of Assembly. The Administratioh which was to succeed the late one had not been completed, but he expected it would be very shortly complete, some of the offices having been filled up. SUPPLY. The House then went into Committee of Supply on he consideration of the colonial and other miscellaneous estimates: On the first vote of 11,0531., for defraying the charges of the ecclesiastical establishments of the British North American colonies being read, Mr. WILLIAMS protested against the people of this country being taxed to pay for the ecclesiastical estab lishments of Canada. He would divide the Committee on the vote. Mr. HUME wished to know whether the clergy of Canada were paid out of the land fund ? Lord STANLEY said that that had never been the case. Mr. HUME thought that the people of this country ought to call upon the people of Canada to pay their clergy, they having the profits of the whole of the waste lands. After some shoit discussion strangers were ordered to withdraw ; no division, however, took place, and on our return to the gallery we found Mr. HUME on his legs, complaining that the recom mendation of the Committee had not been acted on. The vote was then agreed to. 11,282/. was then proposed for the purpose of defray ing the expenses of the, Colonial Land and Emigration Board. Mr. V. SMITII said the experiment of this Board had succeeded as far as it had been tried; but he thought that it ought to be more numerous and more powerfully constituted. He thought it was worth the consideration of the House and the Secretary for the Colonies, whe ther it would not be expedient to establish a Board more independent of the Colonial-office. At the same time that he was friendly to emigration, be by no means wished the Government to take in hand every com pany that chose to advertise a tine ship destined to a fine colony. But he thought that there might be a system of Government agency, which would en able the public to obtain authentic information. There was another point to which he wished to call the attention of the Noble Lord. He thought that the Noble Lord would do well to control the - governors of colonies, and not allow them to alter irregularly the orders issued from the Colonial .otfiee. The Noble Lord had sent out orders to the 'West Indies and Sierra Leone relating to emigration from Africa to those islands. The Governor of Sierra Leoae in council thought proper to alter those orders, which was an irregularity that ought not to have been allowed, as it rendered emigrants doubtful under what regulations they would eventually be placed. The emigration of Hill Coolies from the East Indies to the Mauritius had completely succeeded ; bat there Was a restriction in the Act which prevented their emigration to the West Indies. Now he wished to ask the Noble Lord before he sat down, whe ther it was his intention to alter that restriction ? Lord STANLEY said that the question was one of very great importance, and great caution was required in dealing with the subject. The moment he had received the dispatch from the Governor-General of India, to which the Right Hon. Gentleman had alluded, the first step he had adopted wal to communicate the dispatch to thellouse, and the next step he had taken was to com municate with the Governors of the West India colonies on the subject, asking them if they could devise means by which emigration from the East Indies to the West Indies might be rendered practicable, while, at the same time, the possibility of abuse might he avoided.. He had re quested them to transmit propositions on the subject to the Colonial-office, in 'order that he (Lord Stanley) might lay the same before his colleagues. He had not taken any other steps in the matter. He believed pro positions fr some . of the colonies bad been transmitted to the Colonial-office, but be had not yet seen them. He had nothing further to say on the subject, except to ex press his desire of seeing some scheme devised which it might be in his power 'to submit to his colleagues and the House as one which he could recommend as practi cable, and at the same time as doing away with the abuses which had formerly existed. Mr. C. BIJLLER wished to put his Right Hon. Friend right on one subject. His Right Hon. Friend need be under no apprehension that be (Mr. C. Buller) would bring forward any proposition for a large grant of public money for the purposes of emigration. The funds arising from the sales of land would be amply sufficient for that purpose if they were properly adtni ministered.- He felt obliged to his Right Hon. Friend for having called the attention of the House to the constitu tion of the'Lsnd and. Emigration Commission, and he 'participated in the objections which had been made to that constitution. So little was the existence of this Commission known, that. a gentleman, who had come over last year from Canada for the purpose of arranging a system of emigration, and who had devoted great at-. tention to the subject, after having been no less than three times at the Colonial-office, was not aware, even then, of the existence of this Commission. He thought the Commissioners ought to have more extensive powers, and that it should be a Parliamentary Commission like the Poor-law Commission, or the Tithe Commission, instead of being dependent upon the Colonial-office. Lord STANLEY explained that the Land Emigration Commission bore precisely the,relation to the Colonial office that the Poor-law Commission and the Tithe Com- Commission did to the Home-office. Mr. HUME thought that great evils would have been produced if the proposition, with respect to emigration, Board, of his Hon. Friend, who had just sat down, had been c n a o r t r o ie n d t o ho ut.samHe groundeoleetedas his Hon. Friend did. Heto the Emigrationoard, but thought it ought to be a part and parcel of the Colonial office, inasmuch as the Board, in its decision, was under the control of the Colonial -office. He thought that means should be taken to provide the means of .employment for the emigrants whea they arrived at their destination. But, however, he should object to a n y vo t e t o su pp or t an Emigration Board that was independent of the Colonial office. Mr. HAWES thought the unrestricted importation of free labour into our colonies would have the effect of encouraging slavery. Mr. BERNAL denied that there was any wish on the part of the. West India planters in Jamaica to bring down wages by any unfair or under-hand means. Mr. P. M. STEWART said the price of labour was very high in the West Indian colonies, and the price of food was very low, consequently there was a monopoly in favour of the labourer ; and, therefore, he thought that means should be taken for sending labourers to our colonies. He could not agree with the opinion expressed by .the Hon. Member for Lambeth, for he could assure the Hon. Member that the West Indian colonies were as free as the agricultural counties in this country. He would be glad to be informed whether the Noble Lord, the Secretary for the Colonies, intended to adopt means to facilitate the emigration of free labourers from the coast of Sierra Leone to our West Indian colonies, as he understood that the inhabitants of that district were particularly anxious to emigrate to the British co lonies, and he also Wished to know, whether any faci lities were proposed by the Government to be given to the importation into, the West Indian colonies of Chi nese labourers. Lord STANLEY said that experiments were in course of trial for the importation of labourers from China, but that importation took place under contract, and if that contract should be in any way broken, the contractors would be compelled to give compensation to the emi grants. He (Lord Stanley) was perfectly prepared to sanction emigration from the coast of Africa, under cer tain restrictions, and also from Gambia, which was also a settlement untler the British Crown, but he was not' prepared to sanction emigration which was not within her Majesty's dominions, or from any place over which the Government of England had no control. After a few words from Mr. Hume, Mr. Barnard, and Lord Stanley, the vote was agreed to. A vote of 49,7001. was next proposed, to defray the charges, salaries, allbwances ' and contingencies of the stipendiary justices of the West India colonies, the Mauritius, and the Cape of Good Hope. -Mr. WILLIAMS objected to the vote. Why should these magistrates be paid ? The only reason he saw for their appointment was to maintain and increase patron age. There was nothing in the condition of the black population to justify them; and the miserable people of this country should not be fleeced to sustain such patronage. Ile had received letters from residents in the. West Indies, complaining of these appointments. Lord STANLEY said the Hon. Member had a very odd notion of the patronage exercised at the Colonial office. Since he entered into that office, he had not made a single appointment in the magistracy, except one, and that individual had been temporarily suspended some time before. The Government were now acting on 'the strictest principles of economy, regarding the appoint ments in the West India colonies, and were gradually reducing the number of the stipendiary magistrates there. He believed the llon. Member - was inconsistent in saying that the magistracy was not useful, or desired by the population of the West India islands, as quite a contrary feeling prevailed there. They had been represented as exceedingly beneficial in the of the colonists. ad ministration of justice by several of the most respect able Mr. WARBURTON said that after the assurance of the Government, he hoped the Hon. Member would not divide the House. Mr. P. M. STEWAT expressed a similar wish. Colonel SII3THORP hoped the Hoes. Member would how to the countr o h divide the House, not that h e woedd support him, but because he wished to s strength of the Opposition —he mea at the numbers of those gentlemen who attended when the public money was about to be disposed of. There were now only eleven Liberal Members in the House, and a these eleven two were asleep.—(Roars of laughter.) The late Chancellor of the Exchequer, he perceived, was zow just emerging from a delightful slumber.—(Great laughter.) Yet these were the gentlemen who talkei I so loudly of the mis-appropriation of the public money Mr. HUME said that if the Minot ensl benches were el su o l t d fo a r n t d h a a t g c r i e r e c 4 u m to- whipper-in might be thanked f or it, who seemed to hare they were to get money; s for the Minister fuller than the Opposition . h e belies red the Ministerial done iris duty very well to-night. s, ° w ll i t. thou ' t a division. if it were ions of the negro sta T n i c t e e tvhoetroewmasiguhlttibmettatenloythaegrr eceoduntot;, A vote of 12,0001. was then prop os, for the religious and educational Institut , population of the West India islaneis. A vote of 35,0001. was next pro sad Nr the libera tion of slaves in the West Indies- • Capt. PECHELL complained that the prizes taken by the cruisers were not divided amongst the officers and crews, but were applied to other purposes, such as the maintainance of the captured negroes. After a short conversation the vote was agreed to. On the vote of 24,0001. for defraying the expenses of Commissions established for the suppression of the slave trade being proposed, Capt. PECHELL said the Government ought to do everything in their power to facilitate the advancement of those who were engilged in the unhealthy employ ment of suppressing the slave-trade. Mr. HUME said the attempt to suppress the slave trade was an entire failure, and had only added to th horrors of the traffic in slaves. Sir T. F. Buxton had even admitted it. They had no business to interfere with the conduct of other nations, and thereby run the risk of endangering the peace of the world. The time was come when they should alter the whole course of their policy in this respect. Captain PECHELL said there was a great deal of truth in the observations of his Hon. Friend. He un derstood the Government were now about to blockade the whole coast of Africa. He was glad of it, and he was also rejoiced that a different class of vessels was to be employed in the service. Those which were at present emrluyed were totally unfit for the service. The vote was then agreed to. On the vote of 107,300/. being proposed to defray the expenses of the consular establishment abroad, Mr. WILLIAMS - complained that there were consuls in places with which they had no trade whatever, as, for instance, in Warsaw. What business had they with a consul in Paris, when they had an ambassador, a secre tary of legation, and two attaclifi4 to whom they paid 13,000/. ? Then there was a consul at Marseilles, who received a salary of 550/. a year, and besides this, he charged every Englishman a certain sum for signing his passport. He had been there about five years ago, and, before he could get his passport signed, lie had to pay Bs., and he was shown an Act of Parliament under which the money was levied. Then with respect to Lisbon the case was almost the same. At that place they had a consul receiving 600/. a year, and a vice-consul 3001. a year. Then, again, with respect to Constantinople, they had an ambassador, consul, vice-consul, altogether re ceiving 15,0001. a year. Then, again, they had consuls at Jerusalem and Tunis, none of whom were of the least use. Ile trusted that some explanation would be given of the causes of these appointments. Sir G. CLERK defended the appointments that had taken place, and argued that they were necessary. After some observations from Mr. Hume, the Chan cellor of the) Exchequer, Captain Pechell, Sir G. Clerk, and other Members, the vote was agreed to. On the proposal to grant 20,000/. for extraordinary expenses of embassies at foreign courts, Mr. WILLIAMS said that a reduction might be made in all the items making up this amount without the least injury to the public service. After a short discussion the vote was agreed to. On the proposal to grant 85,000/. to defray the charges for superannuations and compensations for s the abolition of civil offices, Mr. WILLIAMS complained of the superannuations as being disproportionate to theprevious amount of salary, and to the services rendered. The vote was agreed to, after a desultory conversation. 6,2001. was voted fur allowances to officers, widow. 4, and ophans. 1,8501. was voted for the expenses of the national vaccine establishments. POLAND. On the vote that 12,100/. be granted to her Majesty, for the relief of the Polish refugees in this country, Mr. HUME said that he never could allow that vote to be proposed, without expressing his entire condem nation of the conduct of this country towards the Poles. He regarded the Government of this country as crimi nal as the Emperor of Russia, for the countenance which they had given to him in his treatment of the Pules. --([fear, hear.) The vote was then agreed to. The next vote was agreed to without disciission, viz., 4,9791 for defraying sundry allowances connected with the civil list. On the following.vote being read-2,1541. to pay cer tain charities, allowances, and other charges in Scot land, formerly defrayed from the hereditary revenue. Mr. HUME objected to the vote. He thought that persons were excluded from its benefit who needed it more than those who partook of it, and that, on the whole, those pensions to literary men did not advance literature. Sir R. PEEL defended the grant, and pointed out such persons as Professors Airie and Owen, and Mrs. Somerville, who had promoted scientific knowledge, as especially entitled to the Royal bounty. There could not be, he thought, mere deserving objects of relief from the public funds than the relatives of such men, for instance, as Burns, the poet, two of whose female rela tives, and a descendant of the founder of Heriot's cha ritable institution, had been saved from distress. Mr. WAKLEY objected to Professors Owen being paid out of the public funds, when he was the officer of so rich an establishment as;:the College of Surgeons, that could afford to remunerate him for his services. Sir R. PEEL said that on inquiring he had been in formed that there was no man of science in the kingdom who so merited the small pecuniary reward which he received from the Crown as Professor Owen ; that in fact since the days of Cuvier there was no man who had so contributed to advance the' science of comparative anatomy. Mr. HAWES drew attention to the case of the eldest son of Sir J. Soane, who, with his children, was now destitute, though his father had left the bulk of his pro • perty to the national museum. Mr. HUME said the case of the descendants of George Heriot ought to make the Government institute an inquiry into the manner in which these bequests were administered. lie believed George Heriot left his for tune for charitable purposes, under the belief that lie had no is lations existing. The foundation was well able to afford ten times the amount to his descendants which they received from the Crown, and instead of granting the public money to them, because they were relatives, the Right Hon. Baronet should have seen them provided for out of their ancestor's property. With respect to the case of Mr. Soane, he knew that a great part of Sir J. Soane's property was left to the children, but in such a manner that they could not make away with it. Mr. lIAWES explained, that to a certain extent Sir J. Soane provided for the rest of his children during his life, but he left the larger portion of his fortune to the Museum, and to his eldest son he left nothing. There had, unhappily, been a long alienation and qaarrel be tween them, and this son and his children were now quite destitute. As reference had been made to the relatives of Heriot, he had thought it right that the case of the son of Sir J. Soane should be mentioned. The vote was then agreed to. The following votes were agreed to without discussion: —6,767/. for the Foundling Hospital, Dublin; 13,5291. for the House of Industry, Dublin ; 1,0001 for the Female Orphan Asylum, Dublin; 2,5001. for the West moreland Lock Hospital, Dublin; 1,000/. for the Lying in Hospital, Dublin; 1,5001 for St. Stephen's Hospital, Dublin; 3,000/. for the House of Recovery from Fever, Cork-street, Dublin; 500/. for the hospital of Incurables, Dublin; 700/. for the salary of the Commissioners of Charitable Trusts (Ireland). On the last vote, Mr. HUME said he hoped that some similar ma chinery as this Commission would be adopted in England. On 35,000/. being proposed for the allowances to non conforming Protestant ministers in Ireland, Mr. HUME made an objection, but did not divide the Committee, and the vote was agreed to. 7,340/ was then granted for charitable allowances (Ireland), and 5,000/. for the expenses of the county survey. On a vote of 2,5971. being proposed for the expenses of the Shannon Navigation Improvement Commission, Mr. F. FRENCH expressed a hope that the Govern ment would grant some inquiry into the working of this Shannon Commission. It inflicted great hardship upon many •of the Irish counties, which were unjustly taxed to defray the expenses of the Shannon improvement. Colonel SIBTIIORP agreed: that there ought to be some inquiry into this, which was the job of jobs. It was the greatest job ever perpetrated by the late Go vernment, and it was only to benefit the lands of two Noble Lords, proprietors in the county of Limerick, one of whom had held the office of Chancellor of the Exche quer. He should be delighted to show up this job, and he would vote against every future grant. Mr. REDINGTON defended the vote. Inquiry could add nothing to the knowledge which they had pos sessed on the subject at the time the Commission had been already voted. He believed that the improvement of the navigation of the Shannon was a subject of national importance, and he was prepared to support the vote which he had originally given in favour of the ap pointment of this Commission. After a few words from Mr. lIUME, the vote was agreed to. The vote of 1,330/ for the repairs of the Ambassa dor's house in Paris, was then agreed to. A vote of 10,0001. for rebuilding the Ambassador's house in Constantinople, was agreed to, after a few words from- Mr. COLLETT. A vote of 30,000/. for the expenses of the steam navigation to India, by way of the Red Sea, was agreed to without discussion. On a vote of 16,000/. being proposed for the expenses of the militia and volunteers in Canada, Mr. lIUME asked why the country should be called upon to pay for the support of the militia and volunteers of Canada ? lie must object to any more money being granted for Canada. Lord STANLEY defended the vote. Mr. HUME would take the sense of the Committee on the vote. The Committee then divided on the vote, when there appeared— For the vote . Against it 7 Majority in favour of the vote The vote was then agreed to. A vote of 4,1591 was then proposed to defray the ex penses of the London University.—Granted. A vote of 3,1871 was next proposed to defray the ex penses of the Scotch Universities.—Granted. A vote of 300/. was then proposed to defray the ex penses of the Royal Irish Academy.—Granted.
