OILS. —Although Pale Seal is to be obtained at the moderate rates of 301 to 301 a 10 per tun; yet operations have been upon a limited scale. Other sorts met with little attention, and 281 to 291 lOs is the value. In Cod transactions have been of little moment, prices are alio on the decline, and rule at 361 103 to 371 10s; there are not buyers for arrival at these terms. Southern is held for 301 to 32/ lOs for low to fine; but arrivals having taken place caused dealers to operate with reluctance.

Several transactions have taken place in Rape Oil, and the market has a firm appearance—brown at 31s 6d to 325, pale 33s to 33s 6d; Foreign Refined 345.

There has been more demand for Cocoa Nut; Sydney at 27s to 28s 6d; Ceylon and Cochin 28s 6d to 31s; the supply is on the decrease, and deliveries are better, both for home-trade purposes and shipment. TALLow.—Russian on the spot is held with more firmness, and 37s 6d to 37s 9d per cwt are the rates asked for fine new yellow Candle; dealers, however, are not disposed to extend their operations.

SEABORNE MAILS. [N signifies that the mails are sent tore the General Post-oflice by the night—and M by the morning--elispatch.] HORRIBLE TRAGEDY IN AMERICA. (From the Boston Courier, June 9.) One of the most distressing events that has occurred in this neighbourhood for many years, took place at Roxbury, on Saturday evening. A man named Ephraim L. Daggett, of Hope, Me., had been noticed, as if labour ing under some religious hallucination, wandering about the city during Friday, and called at several houses. He represented that he was subject to epileptic fits, and pleaded great poverty, and begged food. Among other places, he called at the house of Dr. Train, but the doctor not being at home, Daggett inquired for the re sidence of the Rev. Mr. Trafton, and being told where he was, he left and proceeded in that direction, though it does not appear that he called upon the clergyman. On Saturday morning, about eleven o'clock, he called at the house of Dr. A. J. Cummings, who resides in Church-place, Ruggles-street, near the Freewill Baptist Church; he said he was hungry, and that he was willing to chop wood, or do any other jobs about the house for his dinner. He was supplied with food, and after di nner loitered about the house until six o'clock, when he was furnished with tea. The doctor went out about seven o'clock on a professional errand, leaving Daggett, who soon after complained o f pain in his heart. He asked leave to sit at the kitchen fire for the p ur p ose o f warm ing his feet, and permission was granted. He sub sequently entered t he dining-room, still complaining of pain, took a seat, untied his neck handkerchief, opened his shirt bosom, and said h e wan t e d t o s ee D r . Cummings. His strange manner alarmed Mrs. Cum mings, and she asked a Miss Crosby, who was present, to go and call in some of th e ne i g hb ours . Mi ss C ros by, w ho was holding in her lap Dr. Cumming's daughter, a child about four years old, set the little girl down for the purpose of complying with the request. The moment she didso Daggett rose, and after mut tering in a low tone for a moment, exclaimed, " It is no use—she must go." He seized the child by the hair of her head, pulled her across his knee, and cut her head almost off with a raz e. which he drew from his pocket. The appalled mother attempted to rescue her sweet innocent from the grasp of the slaughterer, but she was attacked, and sustained a wound in the hand. She finally succeeded in rescuing Cie lifeless body of her child, and with it ran into the street, the infant's head dangling over her shoulder, Daggett still in pursuit, at tempting to strike her neck with the raised razor. The appearance of the affrighted mother, as she ran frantic through the streets for help—holding in her arms her almost headless child, bleeding from every severed vein—was a sight too awful to be described. The neigh bours soon heard her outcries, and upon their approach Daggett, who had followed Mrs. Cummings some distance, receded to the piazza of the doctor's house, and there cut his throat in such a manner as to produce death in less than ten minutes. The scene of blood was terrible to behold—the sitting-room and hall of the house, th e piazza outside, and the street ad lipd away,iaceent,we T were sta h in e edwi with it—but those blemishes ca n be v neigh bours, who were appalled with , what they saw , w ill forget the sight; but the rec ollections of this awful tragedy will never pass away from the memory of the moths. Dr. Cummings returned in the midst of the confusion. He found Daggett in his pa r l our, w i th h i s throat cut from ear to ear, and still breathing. He attempted to dress the wound, but death rendered the task unsuccessful. All this time the doctor was unconscious that it was the b o d y of his only child whom he had caressed half an hour be fore, that lay bleeding upon the table. Daggett is supposed to have been insane. His strange manner the day previous to the murder and suicide would se em t o warrant that suppos i t i on. H e carr i e d i n his pocket a small Bible, and several times during the afternoon, and just before the slaughter, he took it out and pretended to read from it. The razor with which he committed the deed he took from a shelf in Dr. Cummings' kitchen, unnoticed. Dr. Cummings allowed Daggett to remain about the house during the afternoon, in the hope that in the mean time he would be able to see some of the city au thorities, and obtain for him a permit to the poor •house. He did not regard him as a dangerous person, and though he seemed demented, there was nothing in his manner to excite fear. QUARREL BETWEEN THE BARBERS AND WIG-MAKERS OF BERLIN. A Berlin correspondent tells the following ludicrous story, showing the absurd extent to which monopoly, or Government division of labour, is carried in Prussia: "The new trade laws, and the restric tions they have introduced as to guilds and occupations, have caused a violent quarrel between the barbers and the wig-makers ! The latter claim an exclusive right, according to the statute, to cut the hair of the public; the barbers insist that their profession is not limited to shaving. The arguments on both sides had to be formally heard by the magistracy, whose judicial gravity was severely tried on the oc cosion. It was solemnly urged on behalf of the barbers that, in the abstract, there is no distinction between the hair of the chin and the hair of the head; the form of the instrument used to remove it did not affect the question; whether the operation was performed by the razor or scissors was a matter indifference. The office of the barber was to remove superfluous hair wherever it grew: ergo, they had as good a right to clip as to mow. The wig -makers, evading the abstract question of right, represented that the barbers do not confine themselves to clipping, but comb, brush, trim, curl, oil, wash, anoint, and otherwise dress and adorn the heads of their customers, and that these higher branches of the art belonged of right to the wig -makers, who alone can legally create a chevelure. The barbers re joined by an objection, as fatal as that in the celebrated case of Shy lock v. Antonio (in Shakspeare's reports). They contended that the business of the wig-makers only began where that of the barbers ended, when there was no hair left to cut; with perfect baldness the bead became the property of the artist in perruques, and at this point the barbers were ready to abandon it, retaining only a right of property in the chin. The ma gistrates considered the force of the objection, and the barbers have triumphed. The above is only a repro duction of the arguments really used before the Court which decides such disputes, and they occur daily. It may be said that all the trades of Berlin now sue each other to establish what occupations belong to one guild and what to another. If ail the claims were listened to, we should shortly arrive at an Oriental division of em ployments, and to get one article complete it would be necessary to go to half-a-dozen shops for the component parts of it. Fortunately this splitting up is no longer possible." LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, eleven and two, at the office of Mr. Graham, Coleman street. E.

PETITIONS. Lord STANLEY presented petitions against the Sites of Churches Bill. Lord BROUGHAM presented a petition from the Edinburgh Chamber of Commerce, praying for a re form of the patent laws ; a petition from Kidder minster with a similar prayer; also a petition from the members of the National Land Company, complaining of the conduct of a Member of Parliament, in conse quence of which they had suffered grievous hardships; and a petition against the Police of Towns Act. APPRENTICES TO SEA SERVICE (IRELAND) BILL. On the motion of the Marquis of CLANRICARDE this Bill went through Committee. PREVENTION OF OFFENCES BILL. Lord CAWBELL said that this Bill had been sent back by the Commons amended by the insertion of a clause punishilg persons more effectually who placed obstacles on railways. He moved that the amendments be agreed to. The amendments were agreed to accordingly. SCHOOL SITES AMENDMENT BILL. On the motion of the Marquis of LANSDOWNE this Bill was read t third time and passed. CAPE OF GOOD HOPE. Lord STANLEY gave notice that he should post pone his motion on this subject, until Monday, and that he should moil that the papers be referred to a Select Committee. I; was his intention to take the sense of the House on the subject. SOUTH-WESTERN (IRELAND) RAILWAY BILL. Lord AIONTEAGLE presented a petition from the landowners of the county of Kerry, praying that they might be permitted to give a guarantee for money lent to the railway ':ompany out of the county rates. Lord REDESDALE was opposed to the principle of landed proprietors being called on to guarantee railway shareholders. Lord BEAUMONT said that in this instance the landowners prayed to be permitted to give the guarantee. CAR OF JOTEE PERSHAUD. The Earl of I' , 4LLENBOROUGII moved for the pro duction of the charges against Jotee Pershaud, an army contractor in India, and of the verdict given on the trial. Jotee Pershaud was no ordinary person. His father had long been connected with the Indian Government, and Jotee Pershaud had continued to take contracts for the supply of the Indian army. He had contracted to find the army of the Satlej, and never had army been better provided, and in the last war in the Punjaub he had contracted to provide the army in provisions and horses, and that army was always well supplied, whilst the enemy had been compelled to surrender for want of provisions. He was always at head. quarters and had agents in all parts of India, over whose conduct of course he could not ex ercise any control. He was a man of gentlemanly demeanour and had performed great services, yet at the end of the war he had had charges of the gravest character brought against him. Now, nothing could be more dangerous than to bring grave charges against a man who had performed great services without being Tery certain that such charges could be proved. Now hestated upon the most high authority, that it would have ben very difficult to carry on operations effectually if Jotee Pershaud had not had the manage ment of the commissariat. The charges against Jotee Pershaud had been referred to the military authorities, and they had reported that those charges were frivolous and vexatious, tad had recommended that they should not be followedlp. This report was sent to the military board, and the military board was divided in opinion as to its adoption. It was not, however, equally divided; for two of the Members concurred with the conclusion of Major Ramsey, while the other thought that the whole matter should be referred to the President in Coun cil. On the 191 s January, 1850, accordingly, reference was made of the matter to the president in council, and on the 15th of February following the President in Coun cil referred the case to the Lieutenant-Governor of the north-western provinces. On the 11th of March the Lieutenant-Governor further referred it to the magistrate of Agra, who nude his report on it on the 27th of June. Other reports were also made, one on the 9th and one on the 12th of July, by two other gentlemen, civil agents, engaged in the investigation of parts of the charge. After the first report was presented it was withdrawn, and the report of one of i these gen tlemen substituted in its place; because t had been discovered in the meanwhile that, unfortunately, the ma gistrate of Agra, to whom it had been referred, was a debtor in a large amount to Jotee Persaud. On that account the farther prosecution of the inquiry was con fided to another person, who, on the 7th of November, made a final report upon the case. The lieutenant governor thereupon directed the prosecution to proceed as against Jotee Persaud, which was confirmed by the Governor-General. All this while, however, the Go vernor-General of India appeared to be without any cognizance of the early proceedings in this case. In January and February, 1850, the Governor-General was at sea, on his voyage from Bombay or to the eastern islands, and he could not therefore have cognizance of this part of the proceedings. In fact he only became so when the final report was naade. The trial took place on the 27th of March, and, after twenty days' trial, the accused was acquitted. He (the Earl of Ellenborough) should state that in September, 1850, after he had been arraigned, Jotee Perabaud proceeded to Calcutta and instituted a civil suit for 57a1,000/., the balance of his claim against the Government. This was a proceeding grounded on misapprehension and ill-advised. Because if it had been brought at first it would not have been competent for the Government to interpose a criminal prosecution while a civil suit was pending. He (the Earl of Ellenborough) did not think it very extraordi nary that Jotee Pershaud, seeing that he was to be tried under the rew Act in the Mofussil court by a judge and jury appointed by the Government, and seeing the way in which the trial was to be got up, should prefer a trial in the Supreme Court to a trial at bar. He thought the President of the Council committed a great error when he did not adhere to the opinion of the majority of the military board, and not proceed further with the inquiry. But he thought the proceedings from the first founded in error as to the course the Government ought to pursue. That course should have been to direct the military accounts to be investigated, to pay to Jotee Pershaud what they believed to be due to him, and leave him to bring his action for whatever balance he might deem due to himself: But undoubtedly they were grave charges which were brought against the persons who were concerned in those transactions. He understood that the witnesses against Jotee Pershaud were per sons who had been concerned in the military con tracts, and that they had been brought by force under the escort of the police to Agra; that at first their evi dence was in favour of Jotes Pershaud, that they were then threstened with prosecution for their own mal practices, but were also told that if they made a full confession they would be pardoned, and some of the wit nesses were kept in durance until the trial commenced. The whole of the evidence, too, on which he was ar rainged was evidence taken in his absence. Jotee Per shaud in the meantime went to Calcutta, and not having returned at the expiry of his term of bail his recog nizanoes were estreated, and Mr. Laing, who was his ad vocate and also his bailsman, instead of having his goods seized, had an embargo laid upon his press—for ho was the editor of a newspaper—the object being to stop the mouth of the paper. In this country how great would be the indignation excited if a party were to enter the bedroom of a lady and seize her jewels; but in India to violate the sanctity of the zenana of a Hindoo was cal culated to excite not merely the indignation of the people, bat to raise a spirit of insurrection from one end of the country to the other. It was an offence never to be forgiven, and if they disregarded the opinions and feelings of the people in matters of that kind they might be sure their dominion in India would not be worth a fortnight's purchase. He thought he bad es tablished sufficient grounds for the production of the papers be had moved for. Lord BROUGHTON said that the Noble Earl bad given an accurate account of the early part of the pro ceedings to which be bad alluded. But there was this inconvenience in discussing the subject in the presen state of their information, that the official documen which had reached him did not come down to the par ticular transactions to which the,Noble Earl had espe cially alluded, and which ho thought most worthy of censure. Ho was happy to find that the charges which in the first instance were brought against the Govern ment of India had not been repeated by the Noble Lord; that, on the contrary, he had the candour and straightforwardness to state, that the charge against the Government of having instituted the criminal investiga tion for the purpose of putting a stop to the civil suit was wholly without foundation. The contrary was the fact; the civil suit was not instituted until a great part of the criminal investigation bad been proceeded with. The facts were shortly these:—On the 30th of March, 184 Q, a native contractor sent a communication :o th© authorities, charging Jotee Pershaud with fraud, embezzleaient, and forgery. A military board, consisting of three members, was appointed to investigate the matter, and two members of the board reported that the charges were not sufficiently well founded to be worthy of being further prosecuted; the third officer, however, being of a contrary opinion, and Sir John Littler, the Governor of the north-western province, on receiving those two different opinions, ordered the investigation to be pursued. The inquiry was put into the hands of Mr. Denison, who, after ex amining the accounts, reported that he bad discovered a false charge for 4,400 bullocks, which had never been used, and also that another false charge for 2,500 bul locks had only been withdrawn on the announcement of the inquiry having been instituted. Subsequently the inquiry was put into the hands of Mr. Cumming, who reported that he had examined all the proceedings and all the witnesses, and that he was fully satisfied there existed the most extensive frauds. It wins true that Mr. Denison on a former occasion had borrowed a sum of money from Jotee Pershaud, with which he purchased a house; which, however, ho had subsequently mortgaged to him for the money thus lent, and before the close of the investigation the money was repaid. But when Lord Dalhousie became acquainted with the affair he at once ordered the investigation to be entrusted to other hands. Two other magistrates also investigated the charges, and reported that they had discovered frauds of great extent. That was in July, 1850, and up to that time there had been no hint, on the part of Joteo Pershaud or his ad visers, of an intention to proceed by civil suit to recover in the Supreme Court balances alleged to be due to him. It was not till after the commencement of the criminal investigation that such an intention was announced. Lord ELLENBOROUGH—After his arrest. Lord BROUGHTON—The amount of those balances was set down at 570,0001., and respecting them Colonel Newbold, the assistant commissary-general, expressed his surprise at such a demand, as no previous claim had been made by Jotee Pershaud. But, to show the spirit of fairness in vlid; the whole offoir wifris 00124licied, be 1 CERTIFICATES GRANTED. J. Burrell,:Blackmore, Essex, victualler, certificate of the third class—W.

Last Thursday Mrs. Smith gave a public lecture on dress and its relations, both hygienic and social, with reference to the present and future fashions, at Hope Chapel, Broadway. There was a very large and fashionable audience; indeed, the lecture-room was filled to its utmost extent. Mrs. Smith, after making some preliminary remarks said that ladies should at least, consult their comfort and health—that one cannot exist without the other—but at present woman was the creature of sunshine, and she sacrificed all to , prevailing fashions and conventional forms. We understood her then to say that there was phi , losophy in dress as in all other things; and that it should be observed that the dress now coming into use was adapted to all kinds of weather, and it was especially adapted to out-door purposes ; " but," added she, " let my sisters by all means preserve the long robe for parlour purposes; for the sake, however, of their comfort and for the sake of humanity, let them adopt the new style. In articles of dress it is time that women should begin to disenthral themselves from vulgar customs, and think for themselves, at least in articles of dress, and consult their own comfort and hap piness, and, I may say, the happiness of those who come after them, even though they should for the present be sneered at by the press. The costume now being introduced is adapted to our institutions. "Why should we," said Mrs. Smith, " care for what is worn in profligate courts? We should seek for what is healthful, and what will contribute to our comfort, and adopt it. We, the daughters of this Republic, why should we bo the slaves of foreign fashions?—(Applause.) Let us come near to something that will contribute to our comfort and health. It would be curious (said she) to investigate the laws which have precluded woman from assuming the manly costume, but perhaps it would be found to arise from the different organization of the sexes." Here she admitted that there should always be a distinctive character in the costume of the sexes. She then went on to describe the various fashions of different ages, and their inconvenience and danger to health. " But you," said she, addressing herself to the ladies. " have no right to destroy God's handiwork." It was a duty they owed, not only to themselves but to their posterity, to adopt whatever gave the freest action to their limbs. As yet they were the slaves of fashion and custom, which was in some measure to be attri buted to milliners and tailors. " We must (said she) ha►e a dress easy of adjustment ; such a one as a lady can put on without calling in the assistance of her neigh bours." Mrs. Smith then recommended the French hat and Turkish trousers, but not so short as to trans form a woman into a figurante. Over this robe a Gre cian jacket, which may be adapted to the taste and wealth of the wearer. Such a dress would give grace and elegance to the person, and she who wears it would walk with more ease and breathe freer. Public opinion was in favour of them, and they should take advantage of it. Mrs. Smith was loudly applauded during the delivery of several passages of her address. —New York Herald. HOUSE OF COMMONS, June 24. (Continued from our Afternoon Edition of yesterday.) SMITHFIELD MARKET REMOVAL BILL. On the motion for the third reading, Mr. STAFFORD protested against the Bill, but inti mated that it was not his intention to divide the House on the motion for the third reading. He hoped the Bill would meet with a different fate in another place. Mr. HUME thought the House had proceeded in a rash and inconsiderate manner, in agreeing to this Bill, which in his opinion stigmatized and disgraced the first municipal corporation in the country. He moved that the Bill be read a third time this day six months. Mr. W. WILLIAMS rose to second the amendment, believing that his constituents would be very seriously injured by this Bill. Sir G. GREY defended the Bill, and called upon the House to adhere to his former decisions on this Bill, and read it a third time. There was no desire to exclude the city of London from the management of the new market; but, on the contrary, he yet entertained hopes that eventually the Corporation would be induced to un dertake its entire control. Sir JAMES DUKE repeated that the City was dis posed to make the existing market almost a free market, besides considerably increasing its size and improving its details, and he therefore could not help feeling that there was no necessity for this. He insisted that the Govern ment ought to give the House some idea of the number of acres that would be required for the new market if they were not prepared to name where its site would be. Again, he protested against the Bill, and trusted it would be thrown out elsewhere. Mr. CARDWELL supported the Bill. Ho denied that the Select Committee who considered the matter had not done ample justice to the City. They gave the Corporation a fair hearing, and he ventured to assert that when the public came to look fairly at the question they would agree that the Committee had arrived at a just conclusion. Sir H. VERNEY contended that Smithfield was a great nuisance, and its removal was imperatively de manded by the wants and wishes of the public. Sir W. JOLLIFFE thought it'was for the advantage of the public that the market should be in the centre of the metropolis, rather than five miles to the north. It was not strictly correct to say that the city of London was fairly treated either by the Bill or the Government, because how could they undertake the management of a market which they knew nothing of? Then House then divided, when there appeared— For the third reading 81 ,Against it Majority ... —49 The Bill was then read a third time and passed. CHURCH BUILDING ACTS AMENDMENT BILL. On the motion for the second reading of this Bill, Mr. HUME asked what the object of the measure was. Sir G. GREY said the Bill proposed to facilitate the erection of churches in populous districts, and make pro vision for their endowment by the sale of pew rents. Mr. HUME complained that there was one clause in the Bill which would have the effect of preventing parties from building churches unless they allowed the bishop of the diocese to nominate the clergyman. The Bishop of London and others of • his class made a great noise about the spiritual destitution of parti cular districts, and yet they promoted Bills of this description, which were little better than a robbery on the public and the poor. It would have the effect of taking away one•half of the free seats in all churches that have been built by voluntary contribution. Sir GEORGE GREY said he should have no objec . tion to take that clause out. Mr. HTIME was glad of it, but even that would not remove his objection to the Bill; and it appeared to him to be a measure that ought to be referred to the consi deration of a Select Committee. This mode of legisla tion, in defiance of the wishes and wants of the poor, would before long lead to the destruction of the Esta blished Church, and he should propose that it be read a second time this day six months. Sir B. HALL said the clause in the Bill for the sub-divibion of populous parishes was a good one, but the Bill went considerably beyond that, and the House should pause before they reed it a second time. This was not the first occasion in which a Bill of this nature had been introduced; for in a former session a similar Bill was brought in, which would have had the effect, had it passed, of considerably increasing church rates, and this Bill was like that, the Bill of the Bishop of London. Its real object was to tax the free seats of existing churches. His Hon. Friend the Member for Montrose had truly stated that no private individual was SUOMI to 000 0 *WA VIULIMI OCicsigin it, 44 4 the - - J UNE 25, 1851. might mention that Major Bygrave, who had been ap pointed to examine those accounts, had reported that there was a balance in favour of Jotee Pershaud. Lord BROUGHAM—How much? Lord BROUGHTON did not know the exact amount. Major Lawrence, who signed the minutes of the Council of the Government, in a minute, an extract from which he had now before him, made mention of an offer which bad been made on the part of Jotee Pershaud of a com promise, in which he agreed to put an end to the civil suit if the Government would abandon the criminal pro ceedings against him. The offer was refused. Subse quently the whole of the proceedings were reviewed by the Governor-General; and, in his minute of the 4th of November, Lord Dalhousie expressed his approval of the determination of the Council to persevere in the prosecu tion, in order that, if it were true, as alleged, the cha racter of high departmental officers was implicated, their misdeeds might the sooner be brought to light; or, on the other hand, if there was no foundation for those imputa tions that their character might be the sooner vindicated. With respect to some of the minor charges, he had only seen them in the newspapers. Mr. Wylie showed that the great est indulgence had been shown Jotee Pershaud; there had been no extortion practised on him. He had forfeited his recognizances, and he had been left unmolested. He knew, therefore, of no charge which could be brought against the Government in the matter, unless the Noble Earl said he was not fairly tried. That, however, could not be justly maintained; for the jury consisted of four half-castes and a native, a very able advocate had de fended him, and he was acquitted. What, then, did the Noble Earl complain of? Was it of an error of judg ment on the part of the Governor-General in having ordered his trial? Had he not ordered the trial, would it not have been said that it was in consequence of some complicity between Jotee and some high departmental officers, whose conduct the Government did not want to have exposed? What, too, was to be done with the re ports of the magistrates, four of whom had given it as their decision that the charges against Jotee Pershaud were well-founded, and ought to be prosecuted? The Government had, in fact, no other alternative than to order the trial, and he could not see that it should be made a ground of complaint against the Government that they had failed to obtain a verdict. Their Lord ships knew that it was not always possible to obtain a verdict in this country. All that he contended for was, that there had been a sufficient case to go before a jury in the matter. The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH replied. He con tended that there had been a great error in judgment committed in the proceeding criminally until Jotee Per shaud had proceeded with his civil suit, and had bean found to rely upon upon documents liable tq im peachment. He brought no charge against the Gover nor-General, who he believed could not have acted in any other manner than he had done; but still he doubted if the prosecution would have been sanctioned by him had he been in Calcutta in February. REGISTRATION OF ASSURANCES BILL. This Bill was read a third time. On the question that the Bill do pass, The Marquis of LANSDOWNE observed that in the passing of that Bill it was his belief that they had ar rived at the satisfactory solution of a most important qeestion—a question, too, that for centuries had been in agitation. Although this Bill had been introduced with the sanction of the Government, still the chief merit of the solution of the difficulties in its details mainly belonged to his Noble and Learned Friend (Lord Campbell), who had been the Chairman of a Com mission for the investigation of this subject. The measure was one not hastily or rashly adopted. It was, on the contrary, the result of the most careful inquiry. It was a measure that went from that House with greater sanction as a measure of law reform than any that had ever before been approved of by their Lordships; it went from them with their unanimous approval; it was a measure more entitled to the approbation of the public than any that he knew of; and he trusted that it would meet with the concurrence of the other House of Parlia ment.—(Hear.) The Bill then passed. SALMON FISHERIES BILL. On the motion of the Duke of ARGYLL, this Bill passed through Committee. AGRICULTURAL DISTRESS. Lord BERNERS presented a petition from Leicester against Papal aggression, and then stated that nothing but an imperative sense of duty would induce him to proceed with the notice he bad given of presenting peti tions complaining of the continuance of agricultural dis tress, and praying that the laws of settlement and re moval might be repealed. He had hoped that some measure would have been introduced by her Majesty's Government in consequence of the report of a Select Committee of their Lordships' House; but now the petitioners whose cause ho advocated were placed at a disadvantage in not having the aid of the Noble Duke the Lord-Lieutenant of Leicester. The petitions be had to present were signed by upwards of 1,000 respect able farmers in Lincolnshire and Leicestershire, who were suffering very great distress, and who hoped some measures would be adopted, relieving them from the great burden of taxation to which they were sub jected. There had been other petitions to the same effect entrusted to him, but he would not occupy their Lordships' time with them at that hour, espe cially as some Noble Lords who intended to take part in the discussion had left the House. There were three allegations made in those petitions—first, that there was increased distress; second, as to the mischiefs of the law of settlement; third, as to the injustice of an unequal system of rating. He reserved, however, to a fitter occasion the discussion on these points which he hoped would receive their Lordships' attention. COMMON LODGING-HOUSES BILL. The Earl of SHAFTESBURY, in moving the second reading of this Bill, hoped that it would meet with the same kind indulgence from their Lordships which it had received from the other House. After a few words from the Earl of MINTO, The Dulto of ARGYLL said, he hoped that the Bill would be extended to Scotland, where the lodging-houses were worse than in any part of England. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE complimented the Noble Earl (Shaftesbury) on the success of his labours in the improvement of the condition of the poor. The Bill was then read a second time. BRITISH WHITE HERRING FISHERY BILL This Bill was read a second time. MARRIAGES (INDIA) BILL. The report on this Bill was agreed to. Their Lordships then adjourned. consequence was, as had actually occurred in a district with which he was connected, that large portions of the population went entirely without church accommoda tion. It was not the doctrine but the discipline of our Church that required reformation, and before the House entrusted greater powers to Right Reverend Pre lates they ought to insist upon reforming their discipline. Mr. PLUMPTRE said the two preceeding speakers bad taken a very erroneous view of the Bill, though ho was not prepared to dispute that some of its provisions were highly objectionable, but these could be removed in Committee and the Bill made a very useful one. Mr. W. J. FOX said this Bill had Lit en brought for ward at a time when it was utterly impossible to con sider it fairly, either in or out of doors, and he con tended that it was only an act of justice that the second *mailing should be postponed to some future occasion. —(Hear, hear.) The Bill contained many c l auses , all of which were of great importance, and some of which would seriously tax the poor. Ancient parishes were to be exempted from the operation of the Bill, so that a man would be taxed for living in a comparatively speaking new church district, while another clause pro posed to pay the clergymen of the churches which the Bill would embrace out of pew rents, thereby introduc ing into the church establishment the worst feature of dissenting voluntaryism. Sir R. H. INGLIS admitted that the Bill had bee❑ pushed forward a little too rapidly to allow of its being fully discussed, but it did not follow from that circum stance that the Bill was either had or undesirable. He denied that the Bill was the Bill of the Bishop of Lon don, or that it was prepared for the sake of extending the patronage of that Right Reverend Prelate. Why, it would not, in point of fact, confer upon him more patronage than many Honourable Members of the House bestowed upon their butlers. He agreed with the Hon. Member for Oldham, that paying clergy men by pew-rents was a bad system, but that defect could be modified or remedied in Committee; and as the Bill on the whole was a good one, he hoped the House would not hastily reject it. Lord ROBERT GROSVENOR assured the House that the Bill was very much desired by the working classes, because it would remove many of the existing obstacles that stood in the way of building and endow ing new churches, and so far from its object being to increase the patronage of the Bishop, it would in point of fact have the effect of reducing it. Mr. HENLEY should vote for the second reading upon the recommendation of the Noble Lord; but it must not be held from that fact that he was pledged to all the provisions of the measure. Indeed he disap proved of many of its clauses, and when they got into Committee he should endeavour to get them omitted. He thought more time ought to have been given to the House for discussing the principle of the Bill. Sir G. GREY said the report upon which the Bill was founded was laid before Parliament more than two years ago. It was unfair to assert that the object of the Bill was either to increase the patronage or the revenues of the Bishops. He should be prepared en going into Committee to alter many of the provisions, and he therefore hoped the House would consent now to read the Bill a second time. Lord DUNCAN complained that the Bill bad been too hurriedly pushed forward, but his main objection to the measure was that it sought to maintain clergymen out of pew-rents, which he certainly thought a most unwise principle. The thirtieth clause related to the validity of marriages, and as it was a most improper clause to introduce into a measure of this kind, he should be glad to know how it came there. Mr. MO WATT had had ample time to make up bis mind upon this Bill, which he thought was highly ob jectionable, and ought to be rejected by the House. The Church had within its own revenue the means of making adequate provisions for the spiritual wants of the poor, and he should be the last to assent to a Bill of this nature, which it appeared to him was intended to im pose a tax on the puor for the benefit of the rich. On the motion of Sir GEORGE PECHELL the de bate was then adjourned until Friday. ST. ALBANS BRIBERY COMMISSION BILL. On the motion that this Bill be read a third time, Mr. BANKES hoped the motion would not be pressed at that hour, four o'clock, otherwise he must be allowed to state his objection to it. Mr. ELLICE said he would withdraw the motion. The motion was accordingly withdrawn, and re-ap pointed for Friday. The House adjourned at ten minutes past Four until Six o'clock. The House resumed at Six o'clock. MR. DISRAELI'S RESOLUTION., Mr. DISRAELI said, in answer to the question of the Hon. Baronet the Member for Marylebone, the other night, as to what stage of the Government measure he in tended to move his resolution, that ho had found that his Hon. Friend the Member for Huntingdon (Ur. Baring) had give❑ notice of a motion respecting the duties on coffee, which must be brought forward on the first measure of the Government on Mon day, the 30th instant. Therefore-, it would be ne cessary for him to move the resolutions, by way of amendment to the Government propositions, on the second measure as it applied to the general policy of the Government, and not to any particular measure. The resolution which he intended to propose was as follows:—" That according to an estimate of the probable future produce of the existing taxes, sub mitted to this: House by the Chancellor of the Ex chequer, it appears that a surplus revenue may be ex pected in the present year to the extent of about 2,000,0001.; that in the revenue so estimated is included a sum exceeding 5,000,0001, derived from the tax on in come, respecting which an inquiry has been directed to be made by a Committee of this' House, on the result of whose labours may depend the future renewal or modi fication of that important impost; that in this provisional state of the financial arrangements of the country, it ap pears to this House to be most consistent with a due regard to the maintenance of public credit, and the exi gencies of the public service, not to make any material sacrifice of public income in effecting such changes as may be deemed advisable in other branches of taxation." BONDED WAREHOUSES AT MANCHESTER. Mr. MILNER GIBSON rose to move for a Select Committee, to inquire into the working of the system of warehousing foreign goods, in bond, in Man chester, as it affects importers, dealers, and consumers of goods liable to Customs duty, residing in Manchester and the neighbour ing towns ; also as to its effects on the Cus toms revenue, and to report to the House as to the expediency or otherwise of placing Manchester on an equal footing with all bonded towns in the United Kingdom. He did not ask for this Committee on behalf of the cor poration of Manchester, or of any particular interest in that town, but on behalf of the whole in dustrial population in that immense and im portant district. At present foreign goods were allowed to be bonded in Manchester; but it was under stood that the Government were about to nemove these bonded warehouses, and kis object was to ask for a Com mittee to inquire into the propriety of that removal. In 1340, when a Bill was brought forward for establish , ing bonded warehouses, an exception was made by those who opposed the Bill in favour of Manchester. By the law as it now stood the Corporation of Manchester were, in the first instance, liable for the expenses of the Cus toms' establishment in Manchester, connected with the bonding system; but as that expense (2,7091. a year) was not deemed to be a proper application of the funds of the rate-payers, the Corporation had given notice, as they were entitled to do, of their desire to terminate their liability. It had been said that to allow bonding to be carried on at the expense of the State would lead to the establishment of a general system of inland bonding. Hon. Members on the Treasury bench need not be alarmed on that point, for they had supported the Bill introduced by the late Lord Sydenham in 1839, for establishing a general system of inland bonding. The privilege of a bonded warehouse had been granted to Manchester, but was clogged with the condition that the borough funds should be liable for the expense of the Cus toms' establishment. That condition was proposed at the eleventh hour, and was accepted by Manchester because it could not be resisted ; but it was always believed that they would be relieved from this fin proper liability as soon as the experiment had proved successful. Supposing it was worth the while of Man chester to continue that system, why let it do so. Well, then, and if other towns similarly circumstanced claimed the same privilege he had no objection it should be granted to them. The State having granted the privi lege to eighty other places of having bonding warehouses, and having undertaken the expenses of Custom-house officers, why not beer the expense in that case also? If the Chancellor of the Exchequer were of opinion that the bonding warehouses system was carried too far, he would ask was it reasonable to commence with a town which was eighth on the list, and where a large amount of revenue was collected? There were only seven other towns in which a larger amount of revenue was collected than in Manchester. He did not ask that bonding should be discontinued anywhere; but he thought the Chancellor of the Exchequer should not lessen his bonding facilities in the midst of such a locality as that was. It might be said that Manchester was not a seaport; and he knew great stress was laid upon that argument. But Manchester had communication with the sea by water. Was it not frequently the case in London that goods were taken out of ships down the river, and brought up hero to be bonded? What was to prevent the same thing from being done in Man chester? In Chester, a very large proportion of the goods warehoused was brought from other places, and not imported directly into the place. He could not see what difference there was between Chester and Man chester in that respect. In Carlisle, too, there had been Customs received for one year to the amount of no less than 36,4111. for bonding foreign goods; yet not one fraction of them ha d been imported int o Carlisle direct.e Ships could not go up there, for he believed it was ten alli these goods had tere In weret he been o r twelve el v receivedm miles e from of from otherm the sea;b bonding ut warehouses. c ase of one principal article, viz, that of tea, there only seven places into which it was permitted to be im bauntdththeerreefwoetreetey 40 others into w h ic h i t m i g h t b e did depart from the prin cpbiroporleteegd of only f t only allowin" bonding to take place in a sea port. The same might be said of tobacco an d var i ous other articles in th e way of trade. If their b on di ng es tablishment in Manchester was not worth keeping, then discontinue it. If the Committee for which he sought thought it was improper to l put the public to the ex pense of th e charge of the he s a ti sfied Manchester; but ift warehouses heyh t ou and gh Customs then he would t Somerset,otherwis otherwise then tbat he would Government if forwou d say, in the wor d s o f L or d G. he the would most ruinous principle,hsake of an tle y ti p n e g da o n n ti a c attachment to the opinions of cld Customhouse officers they were to refine paying the expense where such establishments were already placed. Mr. Goulburn's opinion had been in favour of the system which be recommended, provided the necessary expenditure would be repaid by the benefit to the public. Go vernment, nu doubt, would be well represented on the coaluittoo for which he moved; in fact all partial would be cared for on it. The amount of re ye n 9 ,5 collected at Manchester was no less than 350, 04)0 1 , and that had been collected at an expense of oral 17s. per cent., whereas in other places the expense. had reached as much as Si. 16s. 6d. per cent. He w could, therefore, without trespassing further on the attenti. so of the House, conclude by moving, according to the t gm* of his notice. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he had often admired the eloquence and ingenuity of his Right Hon. Friend, but never so much as on that occa sion, for if people only took their ideas of the present question from his speech they would have but a faint notion of what the real merits were.—(Laughter.) If he were to confine himself to the mere point of opposing the appointment of the Committee he would not have much to address to the House on that occasion; nor would he have to go into the various subjects touched upon by his Right Hon. Friend. But his Right Eon. Friend had made it necessary for him to say a few words on those topics to which he had adverted. If his Right Hon. Friend's definition of a port was to be taken for granted, it would be rather difficult to make out the real meaning of the term; for if the fact of Manchester having some communication with the sea was sufficient to make it a port, if that description was to be adopted, then almost every town in England might claim to be considered as a port. Th e ware h ous ing system bad been hitherto confined to the ports alone, with the single exception of Manchester; although there were other places which formerly enjoyed the privilege, and from which it had not been taken away. Otherwise it was confined to those places which came under the well-defined term of " ports." In 1840 a Com mittee had sat on that subject, and they had reported " that if, with advantage to trade, and safety to the re venue, inland bonding warehouses might be established , they could be conceded under certain restrictions." ,And when an application was made by Manchester on the subject, the privilege had been allowed to that place, on condition that the expenses were to be borne by the town. He denied that any hope had ever been held oat by the Treasury that the expenses was to be borne by the public. Nor did he think his Right Hon. Friend the Member for Cambridge (Mr. Goulbourn), who, he re gretted, was not then in his place, could ever have given reason to expect that after a certain number of years such could be the case. But the arrangement which had been entered into by the consent of all parties bad bout embodied in an Act of Parliament. Probably, how ever, after the removal of the duty on cotton, which had been a large item in the Customs, the people of Manchester did not find it was so profitable a bargain as they contem plated, and, therefore, they sought a change. They had come to him asking him to take the charge of the duties upon himself; but he had said he thought they had no right to ask the public to pay for that which was for their own particular benefit. They had been recommended to put a reasonable rate o f duty upon goods warehoused in order to meet the ex penses, but that they had refused doing. They preferred coming to the Chancellor of the Exchequer to ask for that which he was obliged to decline granting. He did not think there was any use for an inquiry in that case. He had been applied to last year to put an end to bonding altogether, and he had agreed to their proposal, but bad told them, that as an Act of Parliament bad been passed in the matter, they would have to get another to repeal it. They had accordingly introduced a Bill, but he had objected to the one they brought in. An officer of Cus toms had been then sent down to make all due inquiry, and to examine whatever witnesses they thought proper to produce; and at the end of that inquiry the officer bad been highly complimented by them for the manner in which he had conducted the inquiry. The evidence taken upon that occasion was then before him, and he had no objection that it should be printed; but any fur ther investigation into the subject would be a waste of time and money. But he would say that the evidence taken before that Commission did fail in making out a case of any great advantage to be derived from that bonding system. The Right Hon. Baronet here read several ex tracts from the evidence alluded to with respect to various articles, to show that what he had stated was correct. But, after all, it was only a question of benefit to the people of Manchester. And some of the witnesses most in favour of the proposition of his Hon. Friend were obliged to admit that it was an advantage to the town worth paying for. One of the Manchester witnesses also said that the advantage was worth paying for, b u t that it was a matter of feeling with the inhabitants of Man chester to obtain it through the Government, and th e y complained that they should be singled out to bear tha t charge. But it should be observed that they had be en singled out at their own request. The question wa s, whether the revenue should at present be charged wi th a sum of 2,7001. a year for the purpose of carrying out an arrangement into which the people of Manchester had voluntarily entered, with a view to promote their own interests. His Right Hon. Friend seemed to think that there was something peculiar in the case of Man chester; but he (the Chancellor of the Exchequer) con fessed that he could not see it. On the contrary, be thought that Leeds and many other large towns, re moved far inland, bad a stronger claim to the indulgence in question than Manchester, which had an easy and most rapid means of communication with the great port of Liverpool. But the consequences of extending the proposed concession to all large inland towns, would be to create a serious loss to the revenue. lie thought it was a wise principle, that when a town asked for the benefit of the bonding system, it should undertake to pay tee expenses rendered necessary by the concession. His Right Hon. Friend had referred to the small cost of collecting the revenue at Manchester as compared with other towns. But it should be re membered that in Manchester it was unnecessary to incur the expense of a landing establishment, which was indispensable at a seaport, and he would further remind his Right Hon. Friend and the House that whether the bonding system was or was not adopted at Manchester, it would still be necessary to incur at the seaport the present expenses of the landing establishments. In reply to the application for an inquiry into the subject, he had only to observe that they bad already enough of evidence before them, and that he did not see how they could derive the slightest advantage from the col lection of any additional quantity. Mr. BRIGHT said that the Right Hon. Gentleman the Chancellor of the Exchequer seemed to think that the people of Manchester were liable to the charge of knocking at the Treasury doors and asking the Treasury to do something for them which they were not ready to do for themselves. Now be (Mr. Bright) would not undertake to defend the people of Manchester against that charge, because he believed it was perfectly notorious that there was no other portion of the inhabitants of the United Kingdom against whom it could be less reasonably urged. It appeared that the Right Hon. Gentleman himself had formerly been an advocate for that very concession to the people of Man chester.—(" No," from the Chancellor of the Exche quer.) Well, it appeared, at all events, that the Right Hon. Gentleman had voted in favour of a Bill which had been introduced by his colleagues for carrying out that object. In his (Mr. Bright's) opinion it was a mere su perstition to suppose that seaports only ought to have the privilege of bonding establishments. There was no thing in the position of Liverpool, as compared with the position of Manchester, which could prevent one of these places from benefitting by the system as well as the other. The Right Hon. Gentleman thought that it would be necessary to impose some check on the exten sion of the system. But he (Mr. Bright) believed it would be easy to impose any check that could reason ably be required by enacting that no town should be en titled to the privilege unless a town in which a sum of 100,0001. or 200,0001. a year were not collected, and by further enacting that all towns asking for the privilege should bear the expenses of it for the first five years There had been received in Manchester 70,0001. in 1845, 187,0001. in 1846, 177,0001. in 1847, 249,0001. in 1848, and 319,000/. in 1849. Manchester was at present the sixth largest bonding place in the kingdom, and that fact alone constituted a strong ground why the inhabi tants of Manchester should receive the privilege in question. He did not wish to say anything offensive to the Right Honourable Gentleman, but he should ob serve that any person with a capacity above that of an exciseman for the consideration of such questions must be aware that the exchequer could not, under the pro posed concession, lose the whole sum of 2,700 L, which was at present raised from the ratepayers of Manches ter, for it was manifest that any measure which gave in creased facilities for the distribution and consumption of articles on which duties were paid, among a vast and prosperous population like that of Manchester and its neighbourhood, must lead to some addition to the re venue of the state. But the people of Dlanchester only asked for an inquiry into that matter; and that was, be believed, a fair and reasonable demand. Mr. CARDWELL said that his Right Hon. Friend the Member for the University of Cambridge (Mr. Goulburn), who was confined to his bed by indisposition , had requested him to state what had been the circum stances under which the bonding system had been ex tended to Manchester in the year 1846. His Ri g ht Hon. Friend h a d o bj ected to a departure f rom the prac tice which li m i te d t h e pr i v i lege to seapor t towns; and he had st a t e d t h at he could not see why, cession were made to Manchester, it should not like wise be made to any other large town which might put; forward a similar application. The proper check,2 the opinion of his Right Honourable Friend, against a ny abuse in snch cases, was that those towns which r a . if such a con for the privilege should bear the expense ofe youd ing it into effect; and he thought that thebrich had be an infringement of the understanding ewcession at been come to upon the subject, if the present demanded were granted to M bolter (Mr. Hon.
