PATENT LAW AMENDMENT .BILL._ On the motion for re-appointing this Bi.ll until after the other orders, Sir B. HALL sari he should object to its beirig taken till after the notices of motion for to-day had been dis posed of. The SPEAKER said the order could be taken before any of thn other business. Sir B. HALL said in that case he must submit a mo tion to the House on the subject. The SPEAKER ruled that the Hon. Barc.net could not move till the other orders and notices had been dis posed of. Sir B. HALL said he intended to make his motion as an ameudent to the proposal that the Bill be postponed until after the other orders of the day. There was hardly an instance where a Bill of this importance, which had come down so late from the Lords, and which had excited so much opposition, had been pressed formard in this manner. It was utterly impossible that it could pass into a law in the course of the present session, un less the standing orders were suspended, and he hovel it would be withdrawn at once. At all events, he objected to this hurried mode of legislation, and he called upon the House to support him in resisting the further pro - gress of the Bill. Lord JOHN RUSSELL consented to allow the Bill to stand over until all the other business had been dis posed of. The motion was then agreed to. IRISH PARLIAMENTARY AND LAW 'REFORM. Mr. ROCHE wished to ask Lord John Russell, whether, looking to the fact that under the late fran chise law in Ireland voters in boroughs have been re duced nearly to eight thousand, and also to thti unequal state of the representation in that country, he will be prepared to t xteed his new Refoena Bill to Ireland. Whether he will be prepared to appoint a Commiaion to inquire into the statute law of Ireland with a view to its amendment and consolidation. Whether he has any objection to lay on the table of the House a copy of any letter written by the Chief Justice of the Queen's Bench in Ireland to the Lord Chancellor or Attorney-General for Ireland iu re— ference to the system of legislation for that country, and the unsatisfactory state of the law. Lord J. RUSSELL, in reply to the first question, re quested the Hun. Member to watt for an answer until the Government mea-are wits brought in. —(A laugh.) With regard to the second question, Government were not prepared to appoint such a Commission; while, wit a regard to the third question, he had no knowledge .of any such letter having been received. MESSAGES ro THE LORDS. On the motion of Lord JOHN RUSSELL, the fol lowing Committee was appointed:— Select Committee to settle the order in which Tileme hers shalt accompany Mr. Speaker on all occasions when her Majesty shall command the House to attend her Majesty in the House of Pe.,re:—Lord John Russell, Sir Charles Wood, Sir James Graham, Mr. Henley, Mi.. Goulburn, Sir John Yards) Buller, Sir De Lacy Even e, Mr. Bernal, Sir John Duckworth, Sir Joshua Walma ley, Mr. Evelyn Denison, Mr. Brotherton, Lord Marcus Hill, and Mr. Greene; three to be the quorum. EPISCOPAL AND CAPITULAR ESTATES bid - _ NAGEMENT (No. 2) BILL. On the ncotiO:& 7 the thiid re;:ding of this Bill, Mr. HENLEY said the more he examined the prov. sions of the um the more he was convinced that it woul I not work well either for the Church or the lessees; oat + of the necessary consequences of the Bill would be tt give power to ecclesiastical corporations to force sur renders from their poorer lessees, by refusing them re newals, and ultima.ely he was afraid the operation of the Bill would stop all renewals. No renewal could take place without a surrender, and he was afraid when once a lessee surre ndered m the h o p e of o b ta i n i ng a re newal, t h e provisions of this Bill wou ld b e p u t in face to prevent the renewal. Be should, therefore, move that the Bill be read a third time this day six months. Col. SUSI:IIORP . sec,nded the am en d ment. When ever measures of this tance were p resse d f orwar d with undue haste, he always suspected that there was some underhand work going on; and in this case he en tirely agreed with all that bad fallen from the lion. Member for Oxforthhire, who had moved the amend- meat. air. J. A. SMITH said, the lessees as a body were fAreittly interested io this 13111, and it was an injustice to them to hurry it through the nous° without first giving th em a 1 , 0 ,,.., a opportunity of considering its details. He u, f h o owever, this Bill was only a prelude to legis lationly,r tu.king the settlement of Church leases com to Pass. and in that hope only he should allow the Bill Mr. 3.14c0"e-ii -- ' which reitaxveditLoit 7 a r ie e s n se tt , r o e . ly satisfied with the clauses Sir 11. J. it left the righ t of OUGH3Y ohjected to the Bill because this Bill in that re:enewal in doubt. The ambiguity of panetpteicuttought to be cleared up before the meLsure was Mr. AGLIONBy into law' holding the ecaies of justice the Government were beat t e beta een the lessee and the lessor, and doing th eir aiu, a. to . secure justice and equity to boils sides. Trio stood, was foeluded u p=ll honest and fair intention?, l n :i 'l ut w at the same time he tilt that it would ultimately he ru.ces."ary to pass a compulsory Bill. Mr. R. PALMER said the claims of the lessee were ne i t h e r founded upon a n e q uit able or a legal up that wn owing to the m istnausgement of the churlght; but, Church property, a system of r enewals had sprung t o the Crown lands of Ireland. The g common lessees, law, were only entitl,cl to term of tenure spe c ified in in their leases ; but owing to the mismanagement to which he had j us t ref,rred, th e lessoes had not only be,ii induced ~ .o ruu.ko a cla - to to texiot-right, but to come to Parliament to seek to have the claim coofirme d. the principles of law laid down by the H onour able aed Learned Gentle man who last addressed them. The l esse es had a . !moral claim to renewals which rwither law nor eqmity bait ever attempted to override, n.nd be was gtad that it was recognised by this BA. It Vra 3 opposed ;the law end experience of the past to s2l that the mismanagement of a property coat not rents suchsot far a . rights hadtne cases of copyholds and gt (man of .he .arisett out of the mismanavcoent property, which the Legislature had urtthtified THE SUN, % over and over again. It was neither for the interest of the Church nor the public that the several claims of the lessees should be denied for the sake of increasing the property of ecclesiastical corporation. Mr. BARROW generally approved of the provi sions of the Bill, and thought that it would benefit both the Church and the public, by enabling the ecclesiastical corporations to buy up or enfranchise leases, and devoting the proceeds towards promoting the spiritual welfare of destitute districts. Sir .M.,CHOLMELEY was convinced that this Bill would be looked upon out of doors with great distrust if it was smuggled through the House within two days of the termination of the session. Many lessees had abstained from petitioning against it because they had been assured that it would not be pressed this session. The amendment was then negatived without a divi sion, and the Bill read a third time. On the motion that the Bill do pass, some verbal amendments were made in several clauses, and two clauses added to the Bill, the first providing that the in terests acquired by lessees should be subject to the equities, and bound by the covenants of renewals to which their leases may be subjected; and the second providing that the leaseholder's interest should not be purchased without the consent of the sub-lessees, who have covenants of renewal. The Bill was then passed. PATENT LAW AMENDMENT BILL. The House then went into Committee (progress) on this Bill. Mr. WILLIAMS protested against proceeding further with this Bill, and demanded that it should be with drawn with the view of its being renewed next session. Mr. LABOUCHERE declined to accede to the re quest, and declared that it was not the fault of the Go vernment that the Bill had come down so late. It had been considered by an able Committee of the House of Lords, and as it was calculated to confer vast benefits upon the industry and intellect of the country, he at tached great importance to its passing without delay. If the House thought the Bill was calculated to work an improvement, he hoped that it would not interpose any obstacle in the way of its passing this session. He hoped that no factious opposition would be offered to its further progress. Sir J. GRAHAM disclaimed a desire for any factious opposition, but he did not think that there was any neces sity for Hon. Members to remain mute and leave the Bill to her Majesty's Government in its entirety. Even if they did so, he could not see what prospect there was of pass ing the measure this session. If the other House showed the slightest disposition to differ from the very extensive alterations which had been made in this House it would be quite impwsible to get the Bill through. Mr. LABOUCHERE was afraid that at least one function of "mutes" was sought to be exercised with re spect to this Bill—that of strangling.— (Laughter.) Sir DE LACY EVANS was sorry for the course which had been taken by the Right Hon. Baronet oppo site, and he thought the country ought to know that if the Bill did not pass it would be mainly owing to the op position which that Right Hon. Baronet had offered to it. Sir J. GIS/N.IIAM again disclaimed any factious op position to the Bill ; but he was not afraid of taking upon himself the responsibility of endeavouring to en sure a fair and ample discussion to this important mea- sure. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL explained that the Government did not seek to complain of factious oppo• sition on the part of Honourable Gentlemen opposite, but he pointed out that if discussions were reiterated on every simple point, it would be impossible to pass it this session. :Now, that the question of colonial and foreign patents had been abandoned by the Government, the only object which the Bill now em braced was to cheapen and facilitate the obtaining pa tents, and he appealed to the House, as it was almost unanimous on this Tat stion, troy to defeat the Bill be lengthened and reiterated opposition. Lord PALMERSTON considered that it was entirely out of order discussing on the 18th clause the general principle of the Bill. He accused the Right Honourable Baronet opposite (Sir Janne Graham) with being a party to a very disorderly proceeding, fur to discuss the principle of the Bill on clauses was not consistent either with the usual practice or orders of the House.—(Hear.) He appealed to the House whether its time might not be employed to greater advantage by going on with the clauses.—(Hear.) It this were done it was still possible to pass the Bill into law during the present session. Sir JAMES GRAHAM denied that he was either out of order or had offered any factious opposition to the Bill. His observations were strictly germane with the question before the House. Mr. LABOUCHERE said nothing was further from his intention than to accuse Hon. Members of taking a factious course in opposition to the Bill. All he said was, that if Members persisted in discussing every clause, and starting general questions upon each, it was appa rent that the Bill could not pass before the close of the session. Mr. W. WILLIAMS condemned the Government for pushing such an important measure through the House at the eleventh hour. He contradicted the statement of Mr. Labouchere that he was the only Member in the House who was opposed to cheapening the price of ob taining patents. His whole object was to prevent persons obtaining patents for worthless articles. Mr. RICARDO was willing to sacrifice his whole in terests as a patentee, in order that the whole system of the patent laws might be altogether abolished. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL observed that the Bill left the patent laws entirely where they stood at present, it being confined to legislation in regard to the cost of patents. Mr. HENLEY considered the House had great rea son to complain of the Government. The President of the Board of Trade had thrown the responsibility of delay on the House, but the fact was, the clauses might have been got through by this time had that Right Honourable Gentleman not made certain observations as to Members availing themselves of the forms of the House in order to prolong their opposition.—(Hear.) After some further observations, Sir J. GRAHAM thought it right the public should understand that the real cause of the delay was to be at tributed to the Government. Hon. Members had been led astray on the subject under discussion by the impu tation of motives which were thrown out right and left by the President of the Board of Trade. He hoped the irregular discussion would now terminate, and that the House would proceed calmly to consider the clauses of the Bill. Lord PALMERSTON again accused Sir James Graham of being out of order, observing that when a charge was disclaimed by an Hon. Member, it was against the rules of the House to again refer to the subject. Ile denied and repudiated the imputation that the Government had obstructed the measure by intro ducing topics which did not belong to the subject under immediate discussion. That charge rested with the other side. It the measure did not pass, the public should know that the fault rested not with the Government, but with the Right Honourable Baronet and those who took part with him. On them rested the responsibility, and he (Lord Palmerston) would not accept it on the part of her Majesty's Go vernment, who were there to do their duty. Mr. LABOUCHERE said it was u,elese g.dng on with the Bill under the circumstances.—(Cries of " Proceed," and "Go on.") He was entirely in the hands of the House. If anything had fallen from him to which ob jection might be justly made, he begged to express his regret, and to withdraw what he had said. The clause as amended was then agreed to. Clauses 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, and 24 were agreed to; ,and after a brief discussion, Clause 25 was struck out, on the motion of the ATTORNEY-GENERAL. On clause 47, Sir J. GRAHAM wished to know the probable amount which would be required to give compensation to persons for loss of office under the Bill. He en tertained a strong opinion that the patent laws would soon disappear from the statute-book, and supposing that opinion to be correct, the compensation awarded to these officers, instead of coming out of the funds voluntarily paid by persons who wanted patents, would fall on :Abe public purse. He confessed that be had himself made a mis take in regard to the compensation of the six clerks in Chancery, but the error be had committed ought to act As is caution to the Government not to proceed with the clause without some consideration. The ATTORNEY•GENERAL said, as many of the old officers would be employed under the new system, ,the amount of compensation would be very small. .Mr. C. LEWIS also considered that the compensation would be very limited in amount. _Ur. W. WILLIAMS thought the Government ought to give a more explicit answer to the question. He re collected that the Six Clerks' Bill was brought in at the r ep of a session and pushed on with great haste. Ia reply to a question which he put, one of the Government of that dszy answered that the compensation under the Bill would be between 5004 and 700 L a-year; but the fact was that these clerks received about 7,000/. out of the Consolidated Fund. The most reprehensible part of the proceeding was, that the compensation was paid for seven years after their death. After some further discussion, Mr. LABOUCHERE promised that the Government would consider the subject, and state what alterations they proposed in the clause on bringing up the report. The clause was then e"rced to. The remaining clauses and the preamble were then passed, the House resumed, and the Chairman reported progress. REGULATIONS TO BE OBSERVED AT THE PROROGATION. Lord J. RUSSELL brought up the report of the Se lect Committee appointed to inquire into the arrange ments, on the occasion of this House being summoned by her Majesty to attend the House of Lords, which stated that the Committee had come to a resolution, that in order to ensure regularity, all Members who wished to attend the opening or prorogation of Parliament should give previous notice in writing of their intention to the clerk of the House. That the Cabinet Ministers should immediately follow the Speaker, and that the names of the other Members should be put into a glass, arid that the order in which they were drawn should regulate the position which the Members ought to occupy in the procession. The rcso ltuhteionn o t u u s r e th o c f r L r o t r q d u s. ired that Members shou ld not cross or recros s an y o f the passages between this House a nd Lord JOHN RUSSELLsaid he had now to move that the report be printed, and tomorrow he should that such a seransi:ie P this L move that it be ad iii f ei tt o l nt d ao.h b ou e id aN h - o a l v d e rd so a m s e ter:. It was exceedingly desirable at the opening of Mr. V. SMITH said to raise to the r eport took k ee p ti l o a n ce s many Members out of town:Z=ll,las there were time to take advantage of the batl:t, but anortatureotuurrnhaind LONDON, gone abroad which he wss anxious now to refer to. It was said that Cabinet Ministers were to have prece dence of other Members on state occasions. Now no such distinction ought to be recognised, nor was it recognised at the last Coronation, for then it was sup posed that Members attended upon the Sovereign not as Ministers, but as representatives of the people, who all stood on an equal footing. After a few words from Mr. M. J. O'CorarELL and Lord JOHN REISSULL. the motion was agreed to, and the report ordered to ba printed. BIRTHS AND DEATHS IN SCOTLAND, Viscount MELGUND moved an address for returns stating the number of births, of deaths, and of marriages, registered in each parish of each county in Scotland, in each year since the 31st day of December, 1841, and the scale of fees established in each parish for such regis trations. —Agreed to. The remaining orders were then disposed of, and the House adjourned at Twenty minutes to Six o'clock. HOUSE OF LORDS.-(THIS DAY.) Their Lordships sat in appeals at one o'clock. The Peers present were the Lord Chancellor, Lord Cran worth, and Earl Fortescue. BRIGHT V. HUTTON. HUTTON V. BRIGHT. These were two cross appeals from a judgment of Lord Cranworth's. The bill was filed originally by Mr. Hutton, the official manager appointed under the Joint stock Companies Winding-up Act to wind up the affairs of the Direct Birmingham, Oxford, Reading, and Brigh ton Railway Company. it appeard that on the 25th September, 1845, the prospectus of this company was first issued, containing among the names of the pro visional committee the name of Mr. Bright, and on the 14th of October Mr. Bright also became an allottee, by accepting an allotment of 100 shares, on which he paid 262/. 10s. as a deposit. On the 21st only 67,630 shares out of the 80,000 of which the company was to consist, had been applied for, and no Act of Parliament was ever applied for, and the undertaking was afterwards wholly abandoned. On the 21st December an order was made by the late Vice-Chancellor of England to dissolve and wind up the affairs of the company; and Master Brougham, who was charged with that winding up, on the 3rd of July made an order for a call of 101. per share for the expenses incurred, upon each of the con tributories, among whom Mr. Bright was to bear a rateable proportion of the expenses incurred from the 14th of October, the day on which he became an allottee, up to the period when the company was dissolved. Lord Cranworth, on a motion before the Court, confirmed the said order, and against this decision both parties appealed, Mr. Bright contending that no expenses whatever could be recovered from him, and the official manager seeking to fix Mr. Bright with a rateable proportion of the ex penses of the company from the time of its first forma tion down to its abandonment. Mr. C. T. Cooper and Mr. Morris appeared for the appellant, Mr. Bright, and Mr. Bethell and Mr. Rox bury for the official manager. We are happy to be able to announce that two distinguished Hon. Members, Mr. Hume and Mr. Roebuck, who have been absent from their Parliamentary duties through severe indisposition, are so far recovered as to be able to resume their duties this session. Both gentlemen were present in their seats in the House this morning. STATE OF TRADE. (From the Manchester Guardian of this day.) M ANC HESTER, TUESDAY.—The prevailing spirit of this day's market has been of a satisfactory character. Though extremely cautious, and not inclined to exceed their previous limits, the buyers of yarns and goods have yet shown a rather better disposition fur business at the rates of last week; and, at the same time, both spinners and manufacturers, thou'4li wishful to keep under contract, are enabled to manifest fully as much firmness as they did a week ago. The buying hes been of a general character in goods and yarns, bud of con siderable aggregate amount, effected generally et the full previous rates, and attended with a hardening tendency in sc.me articles. For low mule and water twist, extra hard twisted Mediterranean yarns, and throatle warps up to No. 28's, for jth and 36-inch cloths, domes tics, T's, and long cloths, there continues to be a demand, which keeps the market extremely bare. The Germans still show much hesitation, yet their timid operations are of fair extent on the whole. Last ek, there might be said to be no commissions in the market on Eastern account; to-day, however, some orders, attracted by the low point to which prices have fallen, have been received by the agency houses, and pur chases of ehirtings to a fair amount have taken place. There has been a little inquiry also for Indian yarns of some counts. There continues to be a moderate call for fine yarns on Russian account, and also for some numbers of doubled. ROCHDALE, MONDAY.—We have had a steady demand for flannels to-day, without any change of prices from the preceding week. Wool is firm, at the last week's quotations. MACCLESFIELD, TUESDAY.—Nothing has taken place since Friday's report to give an impulse to business in silk manufactured goods, though some of our principal manufacturing houses have begun to put out their pat tern warps for the approaching autumnal season. HALIFAX, SATURDAY.—The aspect of business in our Piece Hall to-day has not varied much from that of last Saturday. Low lastings are still inquired for; but the sale of other descriptions of goods is somewhat limited. We cannot note any improvement in the demand for yarn, which meets a heavy sale, at late rates. The transactions in wool are far from extensive, and, in con sequence of the depression, it may be purchased in rather easier terms. LEEDS, TUESDAY.—The market has been rather dull to-day; but the woollen trade generally continues active, and stocks keep low. A fair business doing in the warehouses, both for borne and foreign trade. HUDDERSFIELD, TUESDAT.—III our market to-day there has been an increased activity upon last week's. In the Cloth Hall a good business has been done in blacks and mixtures of the middle qualities. Fancies, of new and seasonable qualities, have been in demand. Stocks in the Cloth-hall are at present low, indeed much more so than is usual at this time of the year. The shipping trade at present is quiet. The market in wools has been rather more brisk than last week. BIRMINGHAM, MONDAL—ICL our last notice of the iron trade we mentioned that expectations were enter tained of the gradual giving out of such orders as had been withheld at quarter day, at the prices current before that time ; and we are' happy to say they are now being realised. During the past week, the demand has become more active, and specifications are more freely obtained, though unfortunately there is still no tendency towards improved prices. Throughout every branch of the business, complaints of losses and want of remuneration are most energetic. Confidence, indeed, is fast giving way to a feeling of anxiety for the result of the present unmodified production under such ruinous circumstances. Still the aggregate employment of our mills and forges is again about equal to that of the Same period in the last quarter. For rails also there are considerably more contracts in the market; but the figures at which they are required render them either unworthy of notice or altogether im practicable. We have not beard that more than one furnace has been put out of blast, though at some the make has been rest:ieted.—Aris'a Birmingham Gazette. THE NEW SCREW STEAMER PROBE. The advance of =proven:lout in the manufacture of merchant vessels, says a correspondent, is in no instance more strikingly developed than in the building of auxiliary screws in the present year. We have had occasion to take notice of several this year, which have attracted great attention, but in no instance have the lines been so flue, or has the model eli cited such general gratification, as in that of the Pacebe. This fine vessel, of 600 tons register and 150 horse power, was launched on Saturday last, from the building yard of Messrs. Alexander Denny and Brother, of Dumbarton, who appear rather favourite builders with our Liverpool folk; aed she certainly does them every credit, as she promises, from her peculiar model and greater proportionate power than some of the steamers lately built, to outrival all her predecessors in the Medi terranean trade. Although remarkably yacht-like in ap pearance, as she gracefully entered the water, still, for strength of construction, her builders have challenged all competitors. Her plates throughout are double rivetted, and she has a larger scantling than any other steamer we have seen. -Her commander, Captain P. P. Brenan, who is also a large proprietor, expects to have her iu Liver pool this month, when she will be laid upon her intended station, Syra, Constantinople, and Smyrna, and from an experience of upwards of twenty years i❑ the trade we have nO doubt he will make the most of her. She is the first of an intended line of new iron screw steamers for the Levant, under the management of Messrs. Preston and Watson, of this town, who have adopted all the most recent improvements in naval archi tecture, and who seeing the daily increasing demands of the trade are by this means securing their former prominent position in the Turkey trade. Messrs. Tulloch and Denny, of Dumbarton, are putting the engines into the Phoebe, and, on c l ose examination, they have been pronounced one of the compactest and neatest jobs of the kind ever turned out of the Clyde, and her proprietors have every confidence, with all their appliances, of receiving the liberal support of the shippers to the Mediterranean. She is 175 feet long, 26 feet beam, 154 feet deep, is barque rigged, of a peculiar rakish appearance, which is improved by her bow being planned so as to appear high out of the water— nearly straight, and particularly light—an improvement on the late vessel, for which we are indebted to her practi cal commander,Captain P.P. Brenan. Her screw has oaly two blades, but it appears particularly strong. She has comfortable houses on deck for the officers and engineers, and she has also a bath-room on deck, which is de servedly appreciated as a great luxury in trading to oriental shores. Her cabins were large and spa cious ; in fact, the berths appear to us so airy and commodious that passengers must give her a preference—their ventilation, comfort, and elegance being suplior in every respect. The la dies' cabin is a little drawing-room in miniature—is elegantly furnished; that also has a comfortable bath room attached. She is divided into four air-tight cam partments, and is calculated to carry 650 tone of goods, and 220 tons of coals, besides twenty passengers. From the energetic chancier of her agent, and the great par tiality shown by old hands in the trade to the captain, that success is prophesied to the Ph :ea? which her spirited originators deserve." —Liverpool Mercury. MARAZION.—MAN•TBAF EXTRAORDINARY.—EarIy on Wednesday morning last Captain Matthew Hill, when taking a walk in him orchard, observed a person's arm thrust through a small window, or air-hole, of a cattle-house, near which was a favourite apple-tree, and from which the hid den thief WAS helping himself. At last Captain White walked quickly up by the side of the wall and laid hold of his arm, in which position he kept the thief for a considerable time, looking at the apples with his arm securely fixed.— Cornwall Gazette. WEDNESDAY EVENING, AUGUST 6. HEALTH OFLONDO.NDURING THE WEEK (From the Report of the Registrar-General.) The moreelity exhibits a continued tendeucy to in crease; the deaths in London, which in the three pre ceding weeks of July were successively 881, 873, 956, rOse in the last week to 1,010. The average number of deaths in the ten corresponding weeks of 1841-50 was 1,028, and with the same rate of mortality amongst population equal to the present number of inhabitants it would hove been 1,131; but excluding 1849 from the account, in the corresponding week of which year cholera had raised the mortality from all causes to nearly 2,000, the number of deaths registered last week does not differ materially from the average thus ob tained and corrected for increase of population. While the persons who sank under diseases of the respiratory organs were 84—almost exactly the same number as in tho preceding week, which showed a de cided reduction—and while phthisis, one of the tubercu lar class, has fallen to 122, the complaints classed as " epidemic" continue to increase rapidly. Epidemics were fatal in the two previous weeks in 209 and 282 cases respectively, and in last week the number rose to 333. This increase arises from diarrheas, the growing pre valence of which, concurrently with the approach of autumn, is shown by the numbers of the last five weeks —namely, 23, 53, 64, 83, and (in the week ending last Saturday) 143. The number now returned does not exceed the usual weekly amount at this period during the last five years; but it would appear from a review of the last decennial period that the fatality of this disease among children has of late years increased to an enor mous extent. It will be seen thatithe registrars specify loyal nui sances in connexion with the appearance of diarrhoea in particular instance!. A child died of it, as reported in the last return, in a house in Payne-street, Islington; another has since been registered, and now the father and a third child are suffering. The smell of a drain, which the registrar describes as" overpowering," is con sidered the exciting cause. Twelve fatal cases of cholera were registered in the previous week, and the same number appears in the present. The following are the particulars: — In Paddington, St. John, at 3, Itarket-street, on the 29th cf July, the daughter of a servant, aged two months, died of " English cholera (40 hours)." In the same sub-district at 18, Cambridge-place, on the 30th of July, the daughter of a servant, aged one year, " cholera infantum (4 days)," post mortem.

Mr. Leonard states that " this case was brought from No. 16, Bedfordhury. Since the sanitary inspection in the spring of 1849 the cesspool has been removed, and a trapped pan suppled with water upon a drain has been substituted. The supply of water is good in quantity, but bad in quality, and the butt is uncovered, while the dustbin, which con tains decomposing vegetable matters, is also uncovered. The rooms, though small, are clean. The patient, who was formerly a nurse in Guy's, Sr. Thomas's, and Charing-cross llespitais,was of regular habits. Diurrhcia, continues prevalent. In sub-district of Berwick-etreet, at 7, Rupert-street, on the 26th of July, the keeper of an eating-house, aged 42 years, " English cholera (3 dr,ys), delirium CUM tee more (2 days). apoplexy."

Lose-alley, Bishopsgatn, on the 29th ~f the soe:of a I ibourer,uged 1 I:montbs, "choleraic dierriicee (3 diys)." Mr. Spencer describes this us " a cluse and crowd, It neighbourhood; rho parents of the deceased are. Irish, and with his wife and tour chilli-en, and his eieter (a widow) with two children, making altogether nine persons, occupy a single apartment.

In Spital4elds, at 63, Wentworth-street, on the 28th of July, the daughter of a labourer, aged 2 mouths, " infantile cholera (4 days), cerebral congestion (24 hours)." The number of deaths from cholera now returned is not greater than is usual in a week at the end of July iu ordinary years; and it appears from the above list that, with the exception of three cases, which occurred to persons between 40 and 50 years, the sufferers were children of very tender age.

ECCLE3IA.S fIC AL yl rLEs ASSUbirTION ACT AMENDMENT BILL. Lord MONTE AGLE moved the second reading of a Bill which hra bad introduced to modify, amend, and explain the Ecclesiastical Titles Assumption Act. The object of his Bill was to enact as a substantive law the clause which he had proposed on the bringing up of the report. He introduced it in the spirit of peace. to pre vent consequences which he foresaw would arise under the operation of that law, and which ho tested would be most lamentabl-% The Marquis of LASDOWNE opposed the Bill, and called upon their Lordships to refused their assent to the second reading upon precisely the same grounds on which he bad objected to the admission of the Noble Lord's clause into the Bill in G,mmittee. _ . The LORD CHANCELLOR also opposed the mea sure, and contended that the Bili es framed, instead of removing, was calculated to create doubt and ambiguity. The Earl of sr. GERMANS inquired whether the courts of law would construe an act of strictly episcopal jurisdiction to be a spiritual act exposing the person exercising it to the penalties of the statute? The LORD CHANCELLOR replied that no act done by virtue of the spiritual office of a bishop was a matter of jurisdiction; nor would it be so hold by any court of law. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE moved as an amend ment that the Bill be read a second time that day six months. _ _ _ r. The amendment was agreed to witho!it a division, and the Bill was accordingly lost. Lord BEAUMONT presented a petition from Charles Nash, sen., praying the House to suspend its decision or judgment as to a petition of the Ist of July, and the premature signing thereof, until he had been heard upon the evidence taken in Select Committee and in explana tion thereof, and of the special circura,tances which led to the anticipatory signing of such petitions by him and others, _ Lord CAMOYS brought up the report of the Select Committee appointed to consider so much of the report of the Select Committee on the Waterford, Wexford, Wicklow, and Dublin Railway Bill as related to the conduct of Charles De Ltcy Nash under the attention of the House; and moved that, in consequence of his re prehensible conduct, he should not be admitted hereafter to act as a Parliamentary agent before this House or its Committees. The motion was agreed to. BOARD OF HEALTH (No. 3) BILL. Lord REDESDALE presented a petition from Mac clesfield, signed by 6,000 persons, against being included in the schedule of this Bill. The Bill was then read a second time. ADMINISTRATEJN OF_CRIMINAL JUSTICE of the Home of Commons wcre agreed to, others were altered. And the rest were rejected. The Commons' amethjoAelit to the Attorneys and So licitors it , -gulition Act Amendment Bill were considered and agreed to. The Earl of CARLISLE presented a petition from the attorneys of Lancaster against the Registration of Aa surAnctA Bill. Their Ig)rdships then adjourned until twelve o'clock :his day (Wedt,psdly). HOUSE OF COMMONS, August 5. (Continued from our Third Edition of N es terd ay.) MILITARY KNIGHTS OF WINDSOR. Colonel SALWEY then proceeded with his motion for a 6elect Coxmittee, to inquire into the case and claims of" the Military Knights of Windsor," as set forth and referred to in their two petitions presented to this House upon the 7th day of August, 1846, and 23d day of February, 1847, and which are further set fortk and referred to in the petition of the 2)th April, 1849, by several electors, tax and rate-payers of the borough of New Windsor. The Honourable and Gallant Colonel, after ot:oerving that this was not a question of law, but one involving the honour and prerogatives of the Crown as Sovereign of the Order of the Garter, proceeded to give en account of the foundation and history of the institution referred to in his motion. He observed that, by the ancient charters, the Dean and Canons of Wind sor were appointed trustees for the Poor Knights, but that they had scandalously abused the trust reposed in them, and was about to specify the nature of the ancient foundation, when An HON. MEMBER moved that the House be counted. More than 40 Members being present, Colonel SALWEY resumed. He referred to the fre quent attempts made by the Dean and Chapter of Windsor to throw off their military brethren, and the many instances in which they had deprived them of their duo share of the benefits of the order, as so many proofs of the insatiable rapacity of the clergy in these days. He rested his case on behalf of the Poor Knights of Windsor on two deeds, one framed o❑ the 4th of August 1547, in the reign of Edward VI., the other an in denture of Queen Elizabeth, in 1559. By a covenant made by the Dean and Canons of Windsor with the Crown in the sth year of the reign of Elizabeth, it was laid dawn that lands, &c., of the value of 6001. per annum were for ever to be bestowed on 13 Poor Knights within the Castle of Windsor. The Honour able and Gallant Colonel wee proceeding to animadvert upon the fact that about 17,000/. had from time to time been voted in the miceilaneoua estimates for re pairs and alerations of tie houses of the Military Knights, when An Horn. MEMBER again moved that the House be counted. There not being 40 Members present, the House adjourned. PARLIAMENTARY DIVISION S. From the Votes and Proceerizngs of the House of Commons.

CHANCERY BUSINESS. The Earl of HARRINGTON moved for—" 1. The production of papers describing suits pending in the Court ot Chancery, stating when they commenced, and the probable period of their duration, when that can be ascertained; also, 2, a similar return of the suits in the winding-up courts; also, 3, a list of the suits in the winding-up courts that have been finally settled; and also, 4, copy of the orders passed under the administra ions of the Enrl ot Eldon, Lord Brougham and Vaux, and Lord Coctenham, for the relief of the suitors in Chancery, in order to promote cheap and speedy justice." The LORD CHANCELLOR said that the bulk of the returns moved for were quite impracticable, aL.d, even if they were practicable, wou!d be of no utility. Lord BEAUMONT recommended the Noble Earl to postpone his motion bntil next session. The LORI) CHANCELLOR said that the Noble Earl was perteedy unacquainted with the orders to which he had referred, and had hardly done himself- justice in not having looked more into the matter before he brou e ;ht it forward. The Noble Earl was quite miitok en in sup posing that those vrdeis had not coLisi.krably accelereLed the progress of business in the Court of Chancery. The ructi•in was then withdrawn.
