On Tuesday evening the House again separated without doing anything, in consequence of 28 Mem bers only being in attendance when the STRAKER was about to take the chair. The result would have been very different if even the Hon. Gentlemen who had notices on the paper had been in attendance. Tnere is an old adage, however, " that what's everybody's business is nobody's business," and as it was a duty that devolved equally upon every Member it is scarcely surprising that the required numbers were not forthcoming. Indeed, it frequently requires all the powers of the Ministerial whipper-in, by persua sion as well as by coercion, to collect the forty! No private Member can, however, accomplish the task, unless a party question be on the tapir, and the result is that many valuable days are lost through "counting out" the House. Ministers, how ever, have hitherto supported these "countings out " as convenient modes of getting rid of inconvenient questions, and extinguishing the rising eloquence of some enthusiastic Member. Ru mour bath it that the patronage Secretary of the Treasury occasionally changes his functions, and, in place of being a whipper-in, becomes a whipper-out. This, however, is but a short-sighted policy, for the persona thus deprived of the power of bringing for ward the grievances of which they complain in the ordinary course, will avail themselves of their unquestionable privilege of anticipating the Go vernment on Supply nights. A double por tion of time is thus consumed. Hence the numerous sacrifices perpetrated at the " An nual Massacre of the Innocents," and the emas culation of other measures through the want of time to discuss proposed changes which cannot be consi dered amendments.

Nothing, however, has since been lone, and we are now reaping the fruits of our apathy and carelessness in the unparalleled waste of time during the present session. Whatever differences of opinion may heretofore have existed respecting the propriety of introducing some regulation analogous to La- Cloture must be completely removed by the conduct of the " Irish party," who have also furnished sufficient reasons for removing the power of renew ing the motions for adjournment until a sufficient interval has elapsed to afford a reasonable expectation that the opinion of the ma jority on the subject had been changed. The non attendance of forty Members should also be made a ground for suspending the proceedings until the ne cessary number be present, and not for breaking up the sitting. If these rules were ameliorated, so as to prevent further waste of time, and the Special Com mittee on the Property and Income-tax, which was voted a month since, but has not yet been nominated, should make a proper report on the important matter committed to their charge, we should not consider the session of 1851 altogether wasted, although there would be but trifling additions to the national statute book.

Every ques tion, with the one solitary exception, is treated with the most contemptuous disregard. Except on Govern ment nights, Houses can scarcely be formed or kept to gether. Topics of the deepest interest and the utmost importance to the aelfareand prosperity of the country cannot attract an audience, and it is not too much to say, that one-half of that portion of the session which has already elapsed has been uselessly squandered away through a too rigid observance of the rules, more particularly those relating to the adjournment of debates, and the breaking up of the House if forty Members be not present at any particular time, when a scrutiny into the Members in attendance is demanded. As we have already frequently explained, these regulations were established ler the purpose of pre venting measures of real importance from being car ried in a hasty and inconsiderate manner, and without full time being allowed for discussion, or by a small and insignificant minority in the absence of the great majority. If temperately and judiciously re sorted to, the privilege allowed to the minority was of a very valuable character. But it has been strangely perverted from its, original purpose, and carried to such an extent that the remedy has become far worse than the original disease. It was very proper that a minority should be protected against an abuse of power by a tyrannical majority ; but the character of the evil has completely altered. It is the majority that re quire protection against the proceedings of a factious minority, who with a reckless disregard of public opinion adopt a course wholly unprecedented and un warranted. They are thereby enabled to annoy and delay the proceedings of their op nents, although they cannot possibly hope to succeed in their struggle. They are well aware that they must eventually be defeated, and that they are inflicting serious injury upon the inhabitants of the United Kingdom in general, but more especially upon their own countrymen, by stopping all progress and pre venting any new enactments from being carried, except those mere formal measures which cannot be dispensed with. But they persist in the line of policy they had adopted, not perceiving that, to a certain extent, they are playing the Ministerial game in preventing the introduction of subjects that might not be very acceptable to the Cabinet, and affording a valid excuse for any Minis. terial failures during the Parliamentary campaign a 1851.

THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, JUNE 5, 1861. A circumstance which tended, of course, to lend an air of importance to the meeting which took place yes terday, in Westminster, was the attendance (as chair man) of the Archbishop of CANTERBURY. Under the auspices of the Venerable Primate of the Established Church of England, the discussion was conducted with an appearance of sobriety and earnestness in the highest degree satisfactory. This may be recog nised, despite one or two momentary interruptions by reference to the remarks delivered upon the occa- 'ion by the reverend and honourable speakers. The fact here notified cannot but be viewed as more than ever encouraging, taking place, as the assemblage did so very speedily after the decided defeat of Mr. Fox's motion on the subject of education. Occur- ring, moreov. , r, as it did, in the vicinity of that palace of the Legislature which had so recently witnessed this disheartening, though not ignominious defeat, it could not but be especially gratifying to all sincere promoters of the cause who happen to be residents within the boundaries of the city of Westminster. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. In the Legislative Assembly on Tuesday a discus sion sro3e on the subject of the PitESTDENT'S speech at Dijon. After the usual business had .been dis posed of, the President, M. Durex, made the following announcement : The President—M. Desmousseaux de Givri de mands permission to put questions to the Minister of the Interior, relative to the speech of the President of the Republic at Dijon. What day will the Hon. Minister fix for them? M. Leon Faucher, the Minister of the Interior—Let them come on immediately. M. Desmousseaux de Givri—l congratulate my self on having proposed the interpellations, for the promptness with which the Minister accepts them proves to me that there is no truth in what has been said of there having been a phrase in the speech insulting to the Assembly. The speech of General Chengaruier, which has been so well understood by the Assembly, and which, will also be so by the country—(ilesir, hear) —has furnished the Minister with an opportunity of declaring that there is neither motive nor pretext for calumniating the Assembly; but, if in fact the Presi dent did deliver the phrase which I have before me, it would be a grave attack on the dignity of the Assembly. In presence of the declarations of the Lion. Minister, I withdraw my demand for interpellations. I will now add a few words— The President—You say you withdraw your demand and yet you continue. M. Desmousseaux de Givell—l shall only speak on the order of the day, and I request the Assembly to occupy itself with a proposition which I presented some time since.—(luterruption.) The Presiaent—le is au established fact that the members of the Bureau have DO official character out of this Chem ber.—(Agitation and exclamations.) M. Piscatory—l do not intend to examine the ques tion as to whether the interpellations are useful or op portune, but when once the question is raised it ought to be settled. It is not sufficient that the Minister de Glares that there was nothing meant by the phrase which was said to have been delivered, but he ought to tell us whether or no it was delivered. I therefore ask the Minister of the Interior positively whether or no it was the cast ? (The Minister made no reply.) For want of an answer I shall address myself to several of my Hon. Colleagues— The President—You have no right to do so. M. Piscatory—Tne Lion. President tells me I have no right, but I will remark that the question regards the dignity of the Assembly, and I declare that if I had heard anything offensive used either against the Go vernment or the Assembly, I would frankly declare it. Tho Minister of the Interior, with great emphasis— The Government recogoix:s no other text of the speech delivered by the President of the Republic than that in serted in the Moniker. M. Desmousseaux de Givti—lt is then, understood that the phrase which I have now before me, and which says, "The Assembly has given me its co-operation in every measure of repression, but has tailed me in all the nieusurt s which I have conceived for the interest of the people"—it is agreed, I say, that no one delivered this phrase.—(Laughter and agitation.) M. Piscatory—l am glad that I resumed the interpel lations, for, after the reply of the Government, the phrase must be considered as null, or that, if it was de livered, it is withdrawn, or that the id ea o f i t i s retracted by the Government.—(gear, hear.) We do not in this matter obey any party feeling. We do not wish either directly or indirectly to attack the Government for a party object. When the Ministers who were at Dijon affirm that ti'e phrase which excited the susceptibility of so many Representatives does not exist we are bound to believe them. There is now only one way of ter urinating this discussion with dignity, and that is to pass at once to the order of the . day. That is the only coarse, firm, politic, and honourable, that we can f o ll ow . The order of the day was then put to the vote and adopted. Voice on the Left—lt is a shameful termination.- Noise.) The Assembly roae in considerable agitation at six o'clock. The National thus comments on the attempt of M. DUIIN to stifle discussion on the PRESIDENT'S speech : " The National Assembly, according to the Constitu tion, is the first power of the State. The President of the Assembly is the representative of the sovereign power. The majority decided that this high place should be confided to M. Dupin, and it had yesterday an example of the courage and dignity which the homage d'ajjaires of the Orleans dynasty exhibits in the exercise of his high functions. MM. Piscatory and Desmouss( aux de Givi 41 declare in the tribute that an insult and a calumny had been addressed, on a solemn occa sion, to the Assembly, in presence of its President, two of its Viet-Presidents, and several of its Mem bers. The President, of course, will either contra dict the assertion, or will announce that he protested against that insult and calumny. No, he peipe grates a joke ; M. Desmutisseaux de says he, ' declares that he gives np his interpellations, and at the same time he goes"on with them.' But the Assembly bad no desire to laugh; and then M. Dupin, in order to put down the discussion, hastened to declare that the representatives and the President of the Assembly were present at Dijon as simple spectators, and without any official character. The cocclusion to be drawn is, that the Assembly has nothing to do with the insults offered to M. Dupin. Agreed, M. Dupin; we should take but little notice of insults offered to you personally, and we are of opinion that the country, like us, cares little about them. But when in an official banquet you are placed next to the President of the Republic, it is not without doubt to the old Deputy of the Chamber which betrayed France iu 1815, not to the man of St. Acheut, not to the procureur of the Orleans itti:iAlyestehmabtlyhotmhast itcgeouissidpearidattion i issmtaonittheestedPr.

Dupin; but jet i; ; 110k .qt!hi s t tionangiuto la which W 9 regard to the probable influence of the National Society for Promoting the Education of the Poor. This, moreover, we may remark, is an opinion which may be uttered without anything like disparagement of the labours, or of the general efficiency of the association. For, ac cording to a very generally received belief, and one the reasonableness of which must be apparent to the most mediocre capacity, no scheme can by possibility be adequate as a means of affording education to the masses which has not immediately emanated from, or received the patronage of, the Supreme Government. Individual efforts are all well enough as methods of bringing about certain local or provincial improve ments ; but it is altogether frivolous to imagine for an instant that they can prove sufficient as a mode of diffusing knowledge over the whole surface of the population. Consequently, whatever may be the success achieved by the society already particularised, it must inevitably turn out to be inoperative as a plan for the dissipation of popular ignorance. Reformers of all times and of all classes have had to battle with difficulties as numerous, and at starting as apparently insurmountable as those which have in terrupted the progress of the advocates of national education. It behoves them, therefore, to be in no way discouraged by their repeated failures both outside the walls of the Parliament and in the bosom of the Imperial Legislature. Free-trade doe trines were ultimately triumphant over the doctrines of Protection, notwithstanding the annual defeats encountered by the Hon. CHARLES PELHAM VIL LIERS : and Catholic Emancipation was at length obtained in spite of the defeats endured again and again by DANIEL O'CoNNEnn and his adherents. It will be well consequently if the Member for Oldham will bear continually in remembrance the pertinacity di.played against all kinds of opposition both by the Liberator and by the Representative of Wolverhampton. So soon as the measure of the evil has been tasted to the dregs, so soon, but no sooner, will the constituted authorities consent to their removal. Delayed the anticipated moment of change may be beyond all conceivable conjecture, but arrive it will in the end as by an infallible necessity, the most obdurate antagonism yielding at length to the force of a firm and conscientious per severance. An implicit confidence in this is the secret upon which the ulterior victory of all re formers is principally dependent. Mr. Fox should, consequently, cherish it perpetually in his heart as a consolation under every disappointment, and as an as SUMACS of his tardy but inevitable success as a pro moter of enlightenment. are placed it ought to find some independence and firm ness in the repre,entative to whom it confides the care of watching over its honour and its security. M. Dupin proved yesterday to those who were before ignorant of it, that he will be able to find arguments to justify all his weakness. At the end of the sitting, M. Dupin ob tained the recompense of his silence at Dijon, and of his demeanour in the Assembly, for M. Fiatin (de Peraigny) affectionately took possession of his arm, and accompa nied him out of the Assembly." BUSINESS OONE IN FOREIGN RAILWAYS AT THE LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE, JUNE 4.

" Your confidence, your ready coming forward, will materially advance the work, and the reception which I have met with in your boundaries confirms my hopes. " It is. however, with deep sorrow that I have re marked here and there on my tour through this other wise highly-favoured country, the still want of respect for property, continued mistrust, and mutual enmity of the different nationalities, the consequences of the revo lution and civil wars, which are still slumbering, and retarding the healing of the wounds inflicted. " It will, therefore, be my first duty to procure once more the inviolable respect for the laws, the long-looked for peace and order for the country, and for every in dividual the security to which he is entitled. " The Government is most earnestly striving, with a conscientious regard to every nationality, to promote the welfare of these Crown lands in the interest of this united empire. I should, therefore, be compelled to treat with the most inflexible severity any one who would presume to disseminate mistrust against the acts of the Government, or who would under any pretence whatso ever excite dissatisfaction and disturbances. •' Transylvanians' full of eJutidenee I come amid you; meet me will] the came sincerity and good will. " Cheerfully and with full assurance of success I enter on my cluufe. The Royal, Imperial, Civil and Military Governor of Transylvania, Field-Marshal Lieutenant, and Army Corps Commander.

The German Journal of Frankfort under date of Vienna, 28th ult., says—" By the la •accounts re ceived from Gallicia we learn that collisions have taken place between the peasants and the gendarmes. The latter had been called in by the authorities to prevent the execution of Lynch law by the former, when the gendarmes, attempting to disperse the pea sants, were disarmed. A reinforcement, however, coming up at the time, the ringleaders of the peasants were arrested. The little town of Barlenstein (East Prussia) was the scene of a terrible conflagration on the night of the 24 25th May. In a few hours 21 houses and 68 barns fell a prey to the flames. This is the second time within a very short period that that town has been visited with such a calamity. ITALY.

His ' Lordship has issued the following farewell address to the electors:---" To the Electors of Bath, June 2d, 1851.—Gen tlemen,—By a domestic afiiction, which has just occurred, I am removed from the representation of the city of Bath. I take the earliest opportunity of expressing to you my deep sense of the high honour you conferred on me when I ob tained the seat b y your suffrages in 1847, and, I must add the lasting gratitude I shall feel for the kindness I have ever experienced at your hands; nor shall I cease to entertain the liveliest interest for your individual and collective welfare. I am, gentlemen, with much gratitude, your very faithful fria •d and servant, —Ashley." Captain Scobell, R.N., has offered himself a cancbdate on the Liberal interest.

WESTMINSTER FREEHOLD LAND SOCIETY.-Last evening a meeting was held at the Rosemary Branch Ta vern, Boxton, for the purpose of explaining the objects and principles of the society, to enrol new members, and to make arrangements fur the tiansmission of subscriptions ; Mr. Rey nolds in the chair. It appeared that the members of the society numbered 917, holding 1,347 shares, and that estates had already been purchased for their benefit at Eatst Moul sey (near Hampton Court), and at Reigate, the first com prising 30 acres of land, and making 213 allotments; the second 24 acres, and making about 130 allotments. It was further stated that negotiations were pending for the pur chase of some land within three miles of London, in order to accommodate members who could not conveniently take shares in the estates mentioned. Several new members were then enrolled, and the meeting was adjourned for a fort night. THE SEIOEULACK SOCIETY. —This society, which was established some time since for the purpose of accom modating the public on the one hand and with a view to the giving of permanent employment to a number of the well conducted attendants of some of the Ragged Schools on the other, has proved very successful. It is, however, stated that a number of persons, not connected with the society, have commenced working on their own account. With re spect to the boys connected with the society, Lord Ashley, in a letter to a contemporary, says :—" These boys have been raised from the very lowest depths of society ; and, to show the good effect of their training, I cannot do better than give an extract of a letter which I have just received : The I rejoice to say, flourishes. Last week they earned nearly W. An Irisu boy, one of the number, re ceived a sovereign from a drunken man in place of a shilling, but returnea immediately. They make good use of the library and returned tickets. Their Bible reading and prayer every morning 'at the depository before going out produces an excellent rfOult. Several of them have removed to the model loclniiig:houses ; and, indeed, everything connected with them is se'prosperous as to fill our hearts with thank fulness.' " SCOTTISH Hosrurar„—Yesterday was held the annual spring festival in aid of the funds of this ancient cha rity. The dinner was given at the Trafalgar Hotel, Green wich, the chair being taken by the Duke of Argyll. After a very excellent repast, during which the ears of the guests were regaled by the sound of the bagpipes, the routine of loyal and patriotic demonstrations were gone through, each toast being introduced by the Noble Chairman with unusual freshness and felicity- of style. Then came the toast of the evening, "The Scottish Hospital," and in proposing it the Chairman made a sensible and amusing speech, which was responded to by the Rev. Dr. Cumming, one of the chap lains of the charity, who made an appeal to the pockets of the guests with all the warm' h and eloquence which the oc casion required, lilr. Milne, the Scottish vocalist, then gave some of his national ballads, with his usual marked effect and good taste, after the Chairman's speech referring to the charitable and humane object of the institution. A beautiful song named " Ilka blade o' grass keps its sin drip o' dew," was enthusiastically applauded and re-demanded. Among the guests were Lord James Stuart, the Hon. Colonel Cathcart, Sir David Brewster, Sir James Camp bell, &c. Tire thief donations announced were—the Queen, 103/. ; the Duke of Sutherland, 401.; the Marquis of Staf ford, 10/. lOs ; the Duke of Montrose, 21/.; and the Earl of Eglinton, 101.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti mated at 7,000 bales, of which 1,000 were taken for ex port and 500 on speculation. The sales comprised about 6,000 American, 200 Pernam and Maranham at 60. to 7f d., 100 Bahia at 6td. to 6id., 200 Egyptian at 7 id. to and 400 Surat at 3}d. to 4fd. per lb. The mar ket was steady, but closed heavily.—Railway Shares were quiet. To complete the shipping statistics:of the United King dom, given in part yesterday, an analysis of the re turn concerning the vessels employed in the coasting trade may be given. The entries inwards during the month to May 5 were 1,016,557 tons against 1,056,596 tons in 1850. The clearances outwards may be thus arranged:— Month. 1850. 1851. Four month 1850. 185 Employed in the inter course between Great Britain and Ireland 186,203 198,484 702,454 800,5 i i Other coasting vessels 918,965 896,469 3,478,0833,495.20 Total 1,105,168 1,094,853 4,180,537 4,296,331 The Arctic steamer has arrived from the United States with a further largo amount of bullioa and ad vices of the 24th ult. Cotton was dull, and in flour not much was doing. Respecting the dry-goods' mar ket, it is reported from New York that the total value of foreign dry goods put upon the market during the past week was only 439,981 dolls. No one can com plain of that importation. A few weeks of such inac tivity in this trade would reduce the monthly average very materially. The limited quantity of goods arriving may have a favourable effect on prices, and such a re sult is most desirable. The import trade this season has by no means been prosperous, but the losses have been pretty well distributed at home and abroad. The Californian accounts by this opportunity are in teresting. From the San Joaquin valley it is stated, " The effect of the late rains has been of the most favourable character. The gulches in the mountain have been well filled, and a gentleman just from James town says that miners who could not make 3 dolls. a day by packing the dirt, are now earning from 6 dolls. to 20 dolls. He says that each shower was worth a million of dollars. " The grass and other crops on the plain wear a very luxuriant appearance. Mining, trade, crops, all are looking up.' " The recent reports from Salmon Creek and Klamath River were more favourable. The miners are of the opinion that as soon as the rainy season is over, they can average 20 dolls. to 30 dolls. per day. " A lump of pure gold, taken from Salmon Creek, which is now in the hands of M. G. Dow, who came pas senger in the General Warren, weighed twenty-six ounces. " Provisions at the mines are said to be scarce and high. Snow is still deep i❑ the mountains." Parties who write from Chagres, under date of May 5, describe it as being a dirty and unhealthy, though a busy town. The accounts from Mexico describe General Arista as acting with great energy, and as being disposed to oarry out an improved system of finance, according to Esteva's recommendations. In fact, it is asserted, that the Pre sidont will attend to these matters himself hereafter. The Amsterdam market on the 3d inst. was much the same as regards prices, Dutch Bonds being in request. The Two-and-a-Half per Cents. were 57i to 15-16. Accounts have been received at Lloyd's to-day, stating that the Neptune steamer, from London to St. Petersburgb, was on shore on the Swineboden, near Hullen, on the lit inst., with six feet water in her hold. The cargo consisted of Indigo, bale goods, &c., esti mated at 40,0004, principally insurtd at Lloyd's at a low premium. There is a very quiet market for English Stocks, but prices are firm. Consols have been 97i to 98 for Trans fer and Account. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. hare realised 98i to and the Three per Cents 97i Bank Stook is at 211. Exchequer-bills have improved to 445. and 45,. premium. Foreign Securities have been very variable. Mexican have fallen to 344- and 34, on a report, as usual from New York, of a loan being intended, but which deserves no credence. Peruvian have risen to 86 and 87. Spanish Three per Cents. are 40k, and Portuguese Four per Cents. 33. The last week's Railway Receipts ascertained up to ,his day are, in round figures, as under:— 1851. 1850. Great Western...

COLONEL SIDTIIORP AND TUB EXHIBITION.--NOt' withstanding the antipathy of our Gallant Member to the importorlatio of foreign goods and f ore i gners to this country to d's Fair, it gives us great pleasure to inform our readers that the Colonel was observed in the Crystal Palace on Wednesday last, evidently highly interested in the mag nificent display before him. He paid particular attention to the American and French departments, and was apparently astonished at the ingenious production of Colt, the gun' maker, so justly celebrated for his six-barrelled revolver pistol. He was also much pleased with the splendid articles of vertu displayed in the French department. He spent nearly the wh o l e of the day in the building, and we do hone strong J o h n B ull prejudices with reference to the Exhi bition, so often evinced in quaint and humorous speeches, will have departed from him.---Lincolre Times.

Two courts are to be established under the same roof , , over one of which the m ayor and honorary magistrates will preside.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. (T/lIS DAY.) •yste J. Linstead, a journeyman tailor, IV. L ew i s , a pri in the Coldstream Guards, and Benjamin Swan, chimney sweeper, were c h arged with robbing a og man named Bruce of the sum of 19s. 6d. It appeared that the prosecutor and a young were drinking at the bar of a public-house in West' ster, and proiecutor took the silver out of his pocket bl pay, when a soldier, who was in company with seer: others present, struc k hi m on the arm, and knocked t° o money out of hi s b an d. T he soldier did not stoop , 0 .' take up any of t h e money, but the others round blre scrambled for it, and ran away from the house. 1 ° prosecutor gave th e th ree prisoners afterwards 113',0 custody. _ Lewis, who wore a good-conduct mark, denied ti tl 3 he was in the h ouse t h at evening at any time, and ' sergeant was present to give him a character; whe re. upon The JUDGE remarked that this was the first time 10 had ever seen in the dock a soldier with that chevrofl upon his arm.

The a r r i va l s were i ncessant from nine tl half-past ten o'clock, by which time every availabl e corner of the civic p a l ace was crowded to suffocation' The Egyptian Hall was brilliantly illuminated, and at' ranged as a concert-room, in which was performed e concert of English music, and we need hardly add tbst it formed the great point of attraction. In the ball-room were laid out various objects of interest contributed bi friends of the Lord Mayor, among which were model° of ships from the Admiralty, electro plate from Messrs. Elkington's, the beautiful and novel glass globes which now figure so frequently at pahil entertainments, some fine specimens ot enameled glass from Mr. Kied; and lust, though not least in interest, a rare and curious manuscript chronicle of French history sent from the City archives by the City Rememi.rancer. In other parts were flags front the Tower, and suits of armour from various quarters; in short, nothing was wantiog to give eclat to the wee" come which our worthy chief magistrate dispensed to his distinguished f ore i gn and English guests. Between half-past ten end eleven the scene was gay and attractive to an extraordinary degree, the number of foreign sod, especially of e as t ern costumes giving quite a pictorial chat aster to the groups, or rather crowds, which one met in every quarter. The distinguished visitors were severally introduced by Mr. Cattey, the Lord Mayor's secretary, who most effectively superintended the Be' neral arrangements, and received by the Lady Mayoress with all duo graciousness and hospitality. The cola' pany, which numbered altogether nearly .1,500, b gas to depart shortly after the concert, but great numbers protracted the reception until nearly twelve o'clock. 2S 2 $ ' STOI Tl to: -- Great Wi Leeds Thi terfor time.
