Lewis, and fatal liquids might fail to protect those who used it was so successful that the very real and every-day danger of an ignorant nurse or a care less patient, or a thoughtless servant, ap pears to them quite secondary. It reminds one of the German story of the imagi native servant maid who was sent through a narrow passage to a beer cellar, and who called the household together in alarm by her cries. If there had been a hatchet overhead, and it had fallen down as she passed, it might have chopprd her head off. Equally imminent are the dangers that threaten the careless use of the poison bottle. A physician in an urgent case might send to a chemist for some particular poisonous drug in a hurry. The chemist in question might be jufit at that time without a poison bottle in his cuplNoard, and therefore he could not give the medicine. This is Lord SALISBURY'S spectre, not to be laid of course by the consideration that the chemist need not let his stock of bottles get so low, or that there is usually more than one chemist in a neiglibour hood, and that it would be possible to get the bottle from another. The Earl of KIMBERLEY has another fear. A chemist not given to change has suggested to him that a case might arise in which prussic acid in a diluted form would be dispensed for internal doses, together with an external lotion of bella donna. Both would have to be dispensed in poison bottles, so there would be no guarantee the wrong one was not swallowed. Here again it might be suggested that the use of the poison bottle would at least make the patient or his attendant more careful by suggesting the idea of danger. Then, again, the MaTquis of SALISBURY, who has an espe cial antipathy to the poison bottle, thinks such a protecting interference on the part of Government is opposed to the principles of our Legislature. We have never hitherto, he thinks, acted upon the prin ciple of protecting sensible people from possible dangers merely because foolish people might have it in their power to injure themselves. But the line between wise and foolish is not so easily drawn. We are all apt to be heedless or negligent at times, and Lord REDESD ALE very justly found a parallel case, in which the law made people take care of themselves, in the legisla tion which forbade persons to get out of a train while in motion. Such instances might easily be multiplied. In mines it is necessary to impose penalties to make the men use the safety lamp and forego their pipes. In all factories it is necessary to make certain regulations to check the rashness which endangers life and limb, and the law has sanctioned and endorsed many such. Besides the poison bottle would be as useful to guard sensible people against the carelessness of foolish ones as to protect the foolish themselves. An illiterate ser vant or a child would know the shape of a peculiar bottle, while its adoption would be no more objectionable than the rule which now makes the label " Poison" compulsory on cer tain liquids. Lord REDESDALE expressed his willing ness to leave the details of the matter to the de cision of the Privy Council and of the Pharma ceutiCal Society, but the terrible pictures drawn by the Marquis of SALISBURY and the other speakers frightened the Peers, and they negatived the clause by 45 to 31. L)rd KIMBERLEY is therefore relieved of his apprehension that their lordships would be killed by act of Parliament, since they have been so very fearful of doing what was wrong that they have declined to do what was right ! The house of Commons has again made progress and we can now confidently as3ert that the chief work of the Session is over. First of all, some de. sultory conversation ensued as to the best mode of managing the busiuess before the House, and Mr. DisnAELI kept firm to the practice of morning sit• tings, declaring that by that means they c;ou11 the more easily an ethetually g throiigh the work before them. Mr. M. GIBSON male some wane ---- ecsiary remarks upon the inconvenience of putting n the Electric Telegraphs and other bills between he Reform and Boundary Bills, but in reality this objection was a most frivolous one, for of what consequence nu it he after all which comes first, provided that all are properly attended to? The conduct of some of the, more leading member 3 of the Opposition is quite unworthy of statesmen, and they entirely ignore, in their desire to aveng e their particular wrongs, the geaeral impression that they are thus making upon the public by their in consistent course. One day they harass and per- plex the Government by declaring that this and that measure must be settled before the session is over ; then they affirm that the Dissolution ought to take place at once. Not content with these de vices, they proceed to a third dodge, and discover that the only way in which the important work can be accomplished in the given time will not do, and forthwith one after another puts forward a ques tion. Happily for their own dignity and the inte rests of fair play, the occupants of the Treasury benches have continued to be a match for these schemers, but not the less are we called upon to protest against the unsuitable nature of their ac- tions, for it is a policy unworthy of the character of the English Parliament, and it is quite con temptible to ste the desire for place infuse so bitter a spirit and create so factious a course as that of which we have so many and really notable in• stances, day by day and night by night. One thing is certain, namely, th tt the Government have con trived to get through the work of the session in the most sufprising muner, which proves in a very sufficient manner that they are as anxious to hasten the time of trial as their opponents can be. Upon the House going into Committee on the Irish Reform Bill, Mr. DISRAELI entered into somo explanation of the course that the Government intended to pur- sue with respect to it. They had, in the first in stance, been impressed by the conviction that it was not easy to settle the particulars of the Redistribu tion of the seats in Ireland, but that they had acted quite irrespective of party motives throughout, as they should do now. The right hon. gentleman was certainly justified in saying that what had been proposed by the Government had been unfavour ably received on both sides of the House. In order to trace the causes of this the Premier entered into the different characters of the English and Irish borough representation. Finally, he announced that the Government had resolved to withdraw the Redis tribution part of the bill altogether. On the whole thi s is the best thing that can be done, and we must bear in mind two things in con nection with this subject. First of all, that it is much more difficult to legislate for Ireland than for England or Scotland ; and next that the temper of the House of Commons is not at all like what it wa , , last year. Mr. GLADST,)NE has-contrived to confuse things, and perplex people to such a degree that a calm and comprehensive inquiry is quite out of the question. The dogs of war are let loose, and will not be chainA np until a general rehabili tation has taken place. Every mischievous member who on ordinary occasions is kept in check by the decorum of the House now considers that he has full licence to disturb the business of the Ses and to interfere on every imaginable opportunity as the spirit moves him. Hence the objections of Mr. GOLDSMD and gr. HArrEn, on the different treatment which the English and Irish small L boroughs had received, were not valid ones. The Comm3n36 at 7.

Red Bull Wharf, Angel-passage, 93, Upper Thames- Atr.,,i London. E.C. AT:Co e „, UIf:DON, FRIDAY, JUNE 19, 18G8. The members of the Upper Ilouse are apparently determined that people should not be deprived of the pleasure of putting themselves or their relations out of the world by mistake. The ingenuity with vihich several peers and their correspondents set to work to discover possible, if not probable. cases, in which the use of the poison bottle for dangerous TILE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, JUNE 19, 1868. new clauses, and at last by dint of great exertion LATEST INTELL LGENCE, the bill, were got through committee, and ordered to be reported on Monday. Fortune favoured tie (REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.) Ministers yesterday, and they carried clause after clause until the bill passed through committee. This showed the propriety of Mr. DISRAELI having thrown over the redistribution part of the business, for it simplified matters very much, and enabled those really anxious to get on to bring things to a close. Some excitement was created by the clause of Dr. BRADY and the ballot. This came on at so late an hour that it was proposed to report progress, but this being objected to, Mr. DISRAELI offered to let it come up on the report, in order that the Committee on the Bill might come to an end. Some officious friends would not le,t Dr. BRADY agree to this plan, and finally Sir J. GRAY undertook the management of the affair, but not very satisfactory, for a largo majority divided against it. The hardest fight of the evening was upon the amendment of Colonel FRENCH to reduce the county franchise to eight pounds rateable value from twelve, as proposed. Lord MAYO explained very clearly that this plan was not a desirable one to carry, because it interfered with the Government when putting the county franchise on the samelevel in ,the three kingdoms ; but several hon. mem bers thought this a locus standi for their prejudices, and Mr. OSBORNE fired away at the bill as a whole, designating it as a farce and an ignis fatuus. Mr. GLADSTONE gave it as his opinion that so limited a measure could not be said to dis pose of the question of Irish Reform at all, and went back to 1856 to show that at that period the House had accepted an eight-pound franchise for Ireland. The majority of thirty-six in favour of Ministers was a great triumph, after the determined set which had been made in the matter, and it was no wonder that the announcement of the numbers was received with loud cheers from the Ministerial benches. The good sense of the house was in the ascendant last evening, and it was evident that many believed it to be of consequence to complete the work before the House, instead of yielding to the temptations so insidiously put before them by divers individuals. After the Irish Bill had passed through committee some other business was disposed of ; the Scotch Reform Bill was real a third time and passed, and an amendment was inserted into the Boundary Bill, in allusion to the compound householders in those districts which were for the first time to be included in a Parliamentary borough. The Electric Telegraphs Bill was also read a second time, and ordered to be referred to a select committee, upon the understanding that an Instruction should be moved to the com mittee to inquire into all the chief points of the general question. Hence there is very little now of an important nature to be done before the session terminates, but this is entirely owing to the courage which the Ministers have s'nown in disregarding the sneers and taun's of those who are jealous of their success, and seek to rob them of their hard. earned spoils of victory. The chief error of Mr. DISRAELI and his followers is not that they are inimical to any particular mea sure, but that they persist in remaining in office until the new Parliament assembles. This is a crime which cannot be over- looked nor pardoned, and consequently th,) Government must expect to pay full penance for their sins. The country is not to be bamboozled by fine-sounding words, and will very readily ap preciate the small meanness and party spirit which prompt and animate the constant strain of abuse which is directed against the occupants of the Treasury benches by their opponents. The Court of Common Council is never slow in paying its tribute to great public services, and therefore we are not surprised that it should be the first in the van in its recognition of the achieve ments of Sir ltonEnT NarlEn. We learn by tele gram from Suez that Sir ROBZItT, with Consul CAMERON and General STAVELEY, arrived there yesterday morning en route homewards, so that it will not be very long before the successful General is personally welcomed amongst us. We are glad to find by Sir S. NORTIICOTE'S reply to Mr. BAILI.IE CocitnANE last evening that the Government, consi dering the great hardship thetroops have undergone in the campaign, have decided on granting them six months batta, or extra pay, as is done in India after a trying campaign. This announcement was received with cheers, and will be read with satisfaction by the public, who like to sec such conspicuous merit and arduous exertion pro uptly as well as generously recognised by the authorities. For the leader of the expedition, however, other acknowledgments are needed, and the Corporation of the City of Lon don have resolved to do their part with their accus tomed liberality an I spirit. It was resolved yes terday, " That tho freedom of the city, with a sword of the value of 200 guineas, be presented to Major-General Sir R. NAPIER, Commander of the Forces in Bombay, in admiration of the fortitude, skill, energy, and promptitude displayed by him in bringing the Abyssinian war to so successful and brilliant a close." The resolution, which was moved by Mr. Alderman COT roN, was carried with great enthusiasm. A. slight demur was made by two gentlemen, who thought the vote of the House of Commons should be allowed precedence ; but this argument was silenced by Mr. BEDFORD, who re minded the Court of the appropriateness of the day (the anniversary of Waterloo) for the occasion. As to the resolution itself there was no question of the greatest unanimity of sentiment being displayed. Mr. Alderman COTTON, in an interesting address, reminded the Court of the dismal predictions which had confronted Sir ROBERT NAPIER at the outset of the campaign. Medical and scientific men had augured that his army would suffer more from the climate tha❑ from any other enemy. " What was the result ? He had con ducted an army, composed of 10,800 fighting men and about 14,500 camp followers, making 25,000 in all, with a large commissariat, and about 25,000 camels, elephants, bullocks, and other animals, by a march of 400 miles through dry and arid plains, across mountains, over rivers, through dells and dangerous ravines and defiles, arriving safely at length before Magdala ; and all that had been ac complished by prudence and pluck, combined with an indomitable spirit worthy of the heroic age." It is fit that such services should be promptly and widely acknowledged; and the movement of the Corporation will obtain the sympathy and approval of the public. FIRE AT ALDERSHOT.—Yesterday morning, about seven o'clock, the quarters of Lieut. Doherty, aide-de camp to Lieut.-General the Hon. Sir James Yorke Searh tt, were found to be on fire. The alarm having been g:ven, the camp fire engines were quickly en the spot. It Was soon found that all efforts to save the building were quite useless, as in about an hour after the fire was discovered the hut was completely burnt to the ground. It was with ccneiderable difficulty that the quarters of Lieut. Knollys, aido-de-camp, which are quite close to those occupied by Mr. Doherty, wore saved from being also burnt down. Both officers lived in huts at the headquarters, where Gen. Scarlett transacts his business daily.

PARIS, THURSDAY, June lik At the last meeting of Ministers the question of the eneral election was discussed. M. Rouher urged that it should take place in September. He said that while the Government were quite ready with their candidates the Opposition would not be prepared, and he used all his eloquence to obtain the Emperor's consent. Most of the Minister's colleagues supported him, but not M. Pinard, between whom and M. Rouher, as your readers do not need to be informed, there is no love lost. As M. Pinard is Minister of the Interior, and it would devolve upon him to manage the elections, his opposition notably had weight with the Emperor. At any rate, his Majesty, after listening to what his advisers had to say, came tono decision, postponement being every year a more favourite solution of difficulties with him. In this instance, perhaps, his notorious indecision was aggravated by the indifferent health which he .has suffered for some time past. As time is rapidly passing, it is now most probable that the elections will not take place until next year, when they must come off by effluxion of time. It is not surprising that what with the prolonged ses sion (seven months) and the great heat (90 deg. in the shade), deputies of the Corps Ldgislatif should be pretty well tired out, and want a holiday. The number of appli cations for leave of absence increases every day. And yet the Budget has not been brought in, much less dis cussed or voted. It is probable that it will not be intro duced' until the 29th. However, the Opposition are nume rically so w( ak that the Government can afford to grant furlough to a large number of its supporters, and run no risk of defeat. And as to oratory, the less the truants say the better for Ministers. As Baron Haussmann is not a member of either branch of the Legislature, and has no opportunity of defending orally his administration of the Paris Budget, he has eagerly availed himself of the invitation which the Emperor has given him to explain what he has done during his reign as Emperor of Paris. His defence occu pies thirteen columns of the Moniteur. I may perhaps be pardoned for saying that I have not read it through, and if I had read it your readers would scarcely care to have even an analysis of the Baron's copious statistics. I may mention, however, that according to these the excess of receipts over expenditure increased about £220,000 during the year 1867 as compared with 1866. The Baron, while magnifying his achievements, intimates with a sort of melancholy resignation that he no longer The Avenir National predicts that " the solitary power of wishes to bear alone the responsibility of his great office. llaussmann is finished." To day we have rather disquieting news from Prague. is said that the murder of Prince Michael has given a fresh impulse to the Czech agitation, and that the Bohe mians, who have long been demanding an autonomy like that of Hungary, will join with the Servians in getting up a national agitation which may have very serious con sequences. The Emperor Francis Joseph is going to Prague, in order, if possible, to allay the agitation. Meanwhile, Prince Napoleon avoids Belgrade at this critical juncture, and is on his way to Constantinople, vita Bucharest and Varna. An action for libel has just been brought by the Baron de Soubeyran aga'nst two persons connected with the International, the French newspaper published in London. The journal in question said that the Baron had been " executed" at the Paris Bourse, and had found it ex pedient, in consequence of a " financial indisposition," to leave Paris. For this the Baron indicted M. Dupont, the author of the article, and M. David, the Paris manager. His case was all the stronger because the International subsequently published a denial of the charge, with the word " annulled" stamped on the denial. The matter was further complicated by the fact that M. Jules David, the Paris manager of the International, had republished the charge in another paper. The antecedents of M. David are not favourable, and he had thought it wisest to absent himself from the trial. In his absence he was condemned to three months' imprisonment and £BO fine. M. Dupont got off by proving that the libel had been intercalated by D avid. A. very important trial is now going on with respect to a demand made by the United States against Messrs. Arman, Erlanger, and others, for the value of certain ships which belonged to the Southern States during the, civil war, and which have not been delivered. The velocipe le mania is spreading, and has infected the Prince Impefal, who goes out racing with his friend, young Conneau, at Fontainebleau. THE WEATHER TABLE.-THIS DAAY.

No tickets are required for officers in uniform, as erroneously statei with out authority. Horsemen are particularly requested not to ride within the line of sentries, nor to attempt to follow the manoeuvres of the troops. Spectators in general are earnestly recommended to keep their places after the review until the troops have marched off by the. Long Walk, so as not to impede the progress of the volunteers to the railways or to endanger their own safety. The following official Memorandum was issued from the 'War-office last night : The infantry corps, coming from Virginia Water, Staines; and Egham, will rendezvous near the Statue at the end of the Long Walk. A gun will be tirel by the Honourable Artillery Company at 3.30 p.m., as a signal for the corps to get un ler arms b !fore moving into position on the review ground. After the review the several corps will proved to the railway stations, where they alighted, with the ex ception of those country corps which came to the Windsor Station, these will be marched to Slough Station.

The officers of the 7th (Queen's Own) Hussars held their anniversary dinner in commemoration of the services of the regiment at Waterloo on Tues day last, at the St. James's Hotel, Berkeley-street, REMARKS. very little change is reported in barometrical pressures during the last twenty-fonr hours : at the western stations readings are about one-tet.th of an inch lower. Pressure at Scarborough is more than four-tel.ths of an inch below that at L'Orient. Since yesterday tem peratures have risen in the north and west, and are generally very high. The vII 1 yesterday was rather fresh from the eastward on our southern coast. Light winds are reported this morning from northern st, ions : on our other coasts winds are moderate, with directions varyi g between south and cart. The weather continues very dry. The assassins of Prince Michael appear to have done their work con amore. The Neue Preis Trsse says : " Whilst the Prince, struck by three balls, was lying lifeless on tlee ground, one of the assassins threw himself •on the body and plunged a knife into it several times. It was mutilated and backed, and the nose was literally cut off. The body has three gaping wounds, the arm and leg are pierced, and the articulations of the hand so injured that the glove which he wore had to be cut from end to end to draw it off. The wounds in the face produced a frightfu picture. What gives a more terrible aspect to the murder is the report that the poignards and knives were poisoned. The murderers fired sixteen shots." This extravagance of violence seems to indicate that the assassins were not mur-: derers in the pay of another person, but the avengers of some wrong of their o vii. In the meanwhile Russian and Austrian diplomatists are mutually accusing each other of having perpetrated the crime. A correspondent of the Morning Post sends that journal an account of a recent visit to Crete. He went from Constantinople to Suda Bay on board the Turkish gunboat Candia. This vessel is one of the five • blockade-runners that the Turkish Government bought from the Americans after the war. She came down with her holds crammed with stores and provisions of various kinds, so that there remained no other place for the stowage of the bullion that was also carried (E3),0)0) than the cabins, which were consequently filled completely with sacks of silver and small bronze moneys, and kept sacredly locked. • All bands, therefore, slept and lived on deck. On board there were four companies of infantry. ArriVed at Kanea, the correspondent found the troops well employed in making roads and building fortified stations at intervals. One that is advancing the most rapidly at present starts from ICanea, by Galata and Alikiani to the east, to a little distance beyond which place it is complete, and then turns down the D6rt southward across the island by Omalo, and so on to the coast. Fortified towers are also in course Of comtruction across the eastern end of the island, commanding the passes, and it is on the sates of these works that a little harassing war fire is kept up from day to day. Wherever the troops move to work, todies of insurgents follow them, and ly taking up safe positions are able to give the troops some annoyance. In a skirmish which took place at Alikiani two days before the date of the corn. munication (June 1), one captain, two sergeants, and five Or six men were sent in wounded, and the insurgents were stated to have lost some fifteen or twenty. There bad been some little row at Candia, and Omar Pasha had shewn the writer a sort of infernal machine that the Cretans were using, comprising a tin case, capable of containing about '6olb. of powder, and a little clock machine apart from, but capable of being attached to it, which, being woundup, explodes the w:.ole at the time that it is set for. The invention is said to be American. The pans and mat ;Mai 4i ar.9 0 4 1 ; PrIVY VaCArailds GREAT FIRE AT DULWICH. Shortly , before 12 last night one of the most ex ;ensive fires that has occurred for years broke out in the premises belonging to Mr. Dawson, the well known brick and tile manufacturer, and contractor for several public works, including some for the British Government. The factories, which werJ probably the largest of the kind in this country, were fitted up with steam power, and were filled with manufactured and partially finished goods. As was the usual custom, the day hands left off work and ouly the usual night hands were kept on the pre mises. One of these all of a sudden noticed that a stack of straw in the back of the buildings and ad joining had taken fire, and at the same moment he saw fire issuing from the counting-house, the boiler-- house, engine -house, as well as the general offices an 3 stables. _ _ In the last-named compartment 3 were 16 valu able horses, and a little further to the north were a number of pigs and a large number o► fowls, ducks, and geese. These were fortunately saved, but three of the noble horses were burnt to death, i being impossible for any one to stand the heat Elen forth by such a powerful body of fire, to drag them out, and their cries during the time the fire was attacking them were painful to hear. Two of the Metropolitan Brigade engines were soon in attendance under the command of Messrs. J. and G. Jerrard, and these were followed by Mr. liewatt, the eminent brewer,. of Larkhall-lane, Clapham, and his bold body of volunteer firemen, with a land steam engine by Shand, Mason, and Co. By this time buildings covering exactly 444 feet in length, and in some parts three floors high, were in a general blaze. Acting foreman Macduff and head engineers Duck and Helps next arrived with several other steam and manual power engines, and the mains of tke Lambeth company afforded a most abundant supply of water, but the factories on fire were so far away from the main road that it required not less than 30 lengths of hose, each of 42 feet, to reach the scene of conflagration. The paying out of such enormous lengths of piping took but a very few minutes, an the engines were worked with full vigour, but hours elapsed before the least impression could be made upon the violence of the fire. Some of the engines in order to get near the fire to be called into operation had to pass up and down hills, over green fields, &c., and we regret to state that the Watling-street engine in ploughing its way across one of the newly made roads overturned and threw the firemen upon the ground, and Mr. Hatchins, one of the engineers, was badly injured by the wheel of the engine passing over his leg. The London Salvage Corps, under the direction of Mr. Superintendent Swanton and Foremen Cooper and Puckett, were also remarkably early in arriving, and they assisted materially the brigade in sub duing the fire ; but it was not until an advanced hour this morning, notwithstanding the vast streams of water that were pouring from the engines, that the slightest impression could be made upon the violence of the conflagration. At length, however, the firemen had the gratification of seeing the flames palpably diminish, and before 7 o'clock they were entirely extinguished. The damage done by the diastrous event will reach to several thousand pounds sterling. Mr. White, the assessor to the County Fire Office, and other gentlemen, as soon as the fire was sub duel, made an inspection of the ruins, for the pur pose of ascertaining the cause of the fire and the amount of property destroyed. As far as the for mer was concerned, not the least reliable informa tion could be gleaned, but it was stated that Mr. Dawson's loss will exceed £7,000. Unfortunately he was not insured. The chimney stalk, up wards of 170 feet in height, is standing, as we ll as a long range of warehouses and workshops, and, what was also fortunate, the books, which were taken out of a red hot patent Hobb's safe, were found to be perfectly legible, so that the fifty workmen thrown out of employment will be enabled to resume their employment much sooner than would have been the case had the books and documents been destroyed. The police, under Mr. Inspector Gredge of the P divisioa, renderel great assistance to the firemen by keeping the crowd out of danger, and Mr. Fountain, of the Plough Tavern, threw open his house for the night, for the accommodation of the Brigade. The following is a copy of Captain Shaw's official report of the damage :—" Lordship-lane, Dulwich.— Mr. Dawson, patent brick and tile manufacturer ; a brick boilding of two floors, 60ft. long and 370 ft. broad, used as boiler and steam engine house, offices and stabling burned down and roof off ; a brick and timber building of three floors, 240 ft. long and 34ft. wide, used as drying-houses, machine-rooms, and dwelling-house, about 50ft. severely damaged by fire, and part of roof burned off—all adjoining and communicating. Three horses burned to death." r'' '' o r, _ D. '4 Na HER MAJESTY. WINDSOR CASTLE, June 18.

Cardwell has issued the fol- [owing address to the electors :- 3 To THE FREEMEN AND ELECTORS OF THE CITY OF OXFORD. " Gentlemen,—The Government have proposed , and the House of Commons have adopted, a bill for shortening the duration of the present Parliament , and for expediting the appeal which is about to be made to the constituent body. I desire, therefore, respectfully to solicit a renewal of the trust which for so many Parliaments it has been my privilege to enjoy. " When first I had the honour to be chosen by you I was a member of Lord Aberdeen's Govern ment, which then proposed the largest scheme of providing by the disfranchisement of small borougbs for the enfranchisement of populous communities that has ever been proposed by any Govern ment since the year 1832. In the present Parliament I have endeavoured to promote the same object. The bill of 1866 proposed to re distribute 49 seats, to be taken from small boroughs/ and given to counties and great towns. It was de feated by the party now in office ; and in 1867 0 0 1 proposed a very inadequate measure in its stead. I was one of those who endeavoured, with partial success, to make that measure more extensive. " The proposal for au extension of the franchise, made in 1866 by Lor I Russell's Government, Was defeated, nominally at least, on a question of rating. That principle was consequently introduced int o the bill of last year, and the result has been a degree of confusion and a sense of grievance in many part s of the country, which will require the early atten tion of the reformed Parliament. "In the present session the new First Lord of the Treasury informed us that his Administratio n would pursue in reference to home affairs a truly Liberal policy.' What this policy was to be as re garded Ireland has been a subject of much controA versy. Its authors have employed such expression s as these, viz. A change in the status of the no; endowed clergy,' To create and not to destroy, No objection to make all Churches equal, but the result must be secured by elevation, and not 11 confiscation,' and other ambiguous, though, I ima gine, very pregnant sentences. It has, however, clearly appeared that one intention was to establish in Ireland an university for an exclusively Roman Catholic education, and pay its expenses from the public funds. " Under these circumstances the leader of t he Liberal party had, in my opinion, no alternatiV• His duty was to invite the Liberal party to declare whether they accepted such an interpretation of 3 ' truly Liberal policy,' an I submit to P a rliamen t , and the country a policy more worthy ° 1 that name. I had previously stated in 0 ford that no settlement of this question could be satisfactory which failed to treat oi l equal terms all the Queen's Irish subjects, whether Protestants of the Establishment, Presbyterians, or that largo. majority of the people who belong to the Roman Catholic Church. Establishment of the m all is impossible ; and I am convinced that Mfr' Gladstone's proposal affords the only prospect of equality, and that without equality we can never have that perfect union of heart and feeling With Ireland which is essential to the security of the empire, and to the honour of the Crown. I havo, , therefore, cordially supported the resolutions an d the bill which Mr. Gladstone has carried by larg e majorities through the House of Commons. " The subject of education will doubtless occupy a principal share of the attention of the new Par liament. The object at which' we ought t° aim is the instruction of the children of the, whole people ; but considering the establ ished usages of this country with respect to local taxation and the pressure sustained by the 103 r wealthy classes of the population in providing for the maintenance and clothing of their children, 1, will be necessary to proceed with caution. I OW' that we ought to exhaust every other effort befo re we have recourse to compulsory laws. Every Mee] sure which elevates the teaching of the higher classl has an important bearing on that of the lower ; au I believe that by e giving in our great universities s_" united education to the future teachers of the p eop To we shall improve the instruction of the NO )° , country, promote concord among all the profess(); of our common faith, and strengthen the gene!. influence of religion over all classes of t h e coni t nity. I have, therefore, heartily agreed with P, Coleridge in his proposal for opening the full pri g leges of our universities to all our fellow cone men. "'Modern improvements in the arms of warfa.ft recent experience on the continent, and a grovill conviction, both in the colonies and at home, ef the necessity for a greater self-relianc:3 on the part of our distant dependencies, will make a review of military and naval establishments a cardinal qww, tion in the future Parliament. I trust that the re, suit will lead to a diminution of the public b° , r, dens, by showing that a considerable retreocl'of ment is not incompatible with perfect measures security. ii " On less important or less pressing questionB #.4 0 is not necessary for me to enter within the limitthe present address. When my Parliamentsl duties are over, and the time of election is nearer, shall have many opportunities of explaining 111,,t sentiments on ary subjects with which yo u are ay already well acquainted. " The appeal I now venture to make is addres sa :, to an enlarged constituency. I was an earnest a vacate of the Reform Bill in 1832. I have sa t the House of Commons during the greater poPeo of the time which has elapsed since that act " i3e passed—for the most part by your favour , as °O, of the members for the city of Oxford. Th e . 4 ., formed House of Commons has abolished slaye'olf has opened the corporations, has repealed taxes upon food and other articles of flea s 0 . which narrowed the comforts and fette red the o'o dustry of the people ; has removed restrictions fro the press; has united England and France jo i „; friendly obligations of a liberal co mm e rcial treslver and will leave a memory, perhaps , of greater of sures than ever signalised the history of id other Legislative Assembly in an equal time' 0 jo expiring voice declares that equali t y shaP o o future be the rule in Ireland, so that the b° which unite us with that country may be dra o close as those which unite us with Scotland. „ L eff "I confidently believe that the country will ";,0$ this promise; and if, by your favour , I shall wolf member of the new Parliament, I will do all ° lid tpower to promote so beneficent a result. The P ee is of our opponents, wise in their generation, has to ol to sow disunion in the Liberal ranks ; but I road that, forewarned of their desig ns, we are foresoiti against their efforts, that we shall be cordiallyilivce in exertions for the common cause ; and Oa' tai sent in the future House of Commons the ell e . c or itii of an harmonious, and therefore a decisive, WO 0 0 6 —I have the honour to be, gentlemen, r tir obedient and most faithful sere WARant, CAllm' , Ths cE l,l " "EDD 6 ' 74, Eaton-square, June 17," 1 ..■62a......., I© COX] N otwith con ey in t tae prebab per c above tilos, fall en off; 1 3 4,,0 5e o f to. y et I 'll the while the 1 and a ha', t arn of th 4 divide n d s e plethl tb. e Banks a PPlioatio r cent, T hi th e Previc Decrea Increa: Decrea No chr.
