A SINGULAR ADVENTURE.—Mary Ann Owen, a smartly-dressed woman, was charged with rob bing Robert Somers of a purse containing nearly Prosecutor said—l had been yesterday on an ex cursion to Gravesend, with the teetotallers, and we did not get home till late, and then I went into the Crawley Arms for a little drop of something. Mr. Arnold—Tired of teetotalism ? Prosecutor—Well, I wanted something. There were a good many of us in the excursion who had something to drink. Mr. Arnold—l dare say. Prosecutor—As I was going into the Crawley Arms, in the Fulham-road, the prisoner was at the door, and asked me if I would treat her. I gave her a little gin, and then we walked together towards my house, when all of a sudden she dropped down on the ground, and said " How bad I am." I said I was very sorry, and she sail " 06, I am bad," and laid hold of me and pulle 1 me to wards her. I did not think anything wrong was going on, and she kept coinplaining of being ill, and I was thinking what I had better do for her, when I found she had robbed me of my purse and change of half-a-sovereign. I gave her into custody. Prisoner said she knew nothing of it, as she wa ntoxicatud. Prisoner was remanded. Tli MES. EXTRAORDINARY ROBBERY.—Mary Ann Burke, a woman of very loose moral, who has been a servant to females worse than herself, was brought up on remand before Mr. Benson charged with being concerned with three others not in custody, in stealing a gold charm, three gold lockets, a gold key, a linsey dress, a shawl, a woollen shirt, a handkerchief, and other property belonging to Sophia Dallamore or Delmore. The prosecutrix is a native of Germany, and her father is a paper manufacturer at Frankfort-on the-Maine. About three years ago she formed an intimacy with an English barrister who brought her to England. The intercourse led to the birth of a child, which is now being educated at the ex pense of the putative father. A separation took place, and the prosecutrix fell from one step to an other until she became a common woman on the streets, and took up her abode in that vile and dirty place Blue-gate-fields, Shadwell. The prisoner acted as servant to Dallamore and other fallen men in the same place. The prosecutrix in this feeted den kept up some appearances of her former respectability, had a well furnished room, and other comforts. The prisoner and others formed a plan to rob her on the 17th March last, while she was from home, and they carried it out by stripping her room of everything valuable, including all trinkets. The case was put into the hands of Police-sergeant Freeston, No. 58, but so well was the secret pre served among the infamous women Who committed the robbery that it was not until Dallamore saw her own shawl on the prisoners' back that obtained a clue to the thieves. Freeston ascertained that the prisoner had pawned other things belonging to the prosecutrix, and sold the duplicates relating to them. Freeston arrested the prisoner on the 20th of last month in Shadwell, and upon making her ac quainted with the charge at the station-house she made the following statement, which the sergeant took down in writing. " I shall have them all in it. The young woman that has told was in the swim, and knows all about it. I suppose you will take duck-legged Donahoo, Mary M'Cree, the Con naught girl, and Molly Connor. 1 gave the ticket of a shawl to Poll Towers." After the charge was taken the prisoner said that " Poll Towers and Do nahoo got in at the window and took the things out. Short Welch and Poll Towers had the same as me. Ellen Bryan took the ticket of a shirt and took it out of pawn." Mary Ann 'rowers, who had been examined on a previous occasion, was called, on which the prisoner called out, " Why, Poll, you was there." Witness—l was there, but 1 took nothing. Mr. Benson—You was as bad as the others ; go about your business. Has the jewellery of this wretched German woman been recovered ? Sergeant Freeston—No, sir, there is no chance of recovering a single article of the jewellery. The prisoner, in a noisy manner, said others were in the robbery as well as her. Peg Connor, the pro secutrix's own servant, brought the things out. The prisoner then protested she was outside the house all the time the room of the prosecutrix was being plundered, and only took what was given to her. Mr. Benson said a very gross act of robbery had been committed by a gang of lawless female thieves, and their victim was of the same degraded class as themselves. Some of them were convicted thieves. It was a very bad offence indeed. He should act on the prisoner's plea of guilty, and sen tence her to be imprisoned for four months and kept to hard labour. • MARLBOROUGH-STREET. BURGLARY.—Thos. Lennard, a strange-looking fellow, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with bur glariously breaking and entering the house of Mr. Wm. Thomas Barns, the Grapes Tavern, No. 52, Haymarket, and stealing some silver and copper moneys and other articles, the property of Mr. Barns. Miss Sarah Watts, assistant to Mr. Dovanos, the keeper of a cafe at 50, Haymarket, said—About half-past three o'clock on Sunday morning I was awoke by the noise of some one opening a window, and on getting up I saw a man trying to get into Mr. Barns' house by means of a window in the court, which runs alongside the house, but the man not being able todo so went away. Yesterday (Monday) morning, about the same time, I was again awoke by hearing a similar noise to that I heard the morning before, anti on going to my window I saw the same man as I had seen before pull down the window of Mr. Barns' house and get in, he having no shoes or stoclthlgs on at the time. Mr. Tyrwhitt—lle understands how to do it, it appears. Are you sure the prisoner is the same man ? Witness—l am. I waited a short time at the window to see whit sort of head the man had, but he did not come out of the house again. I then went and woke up Mr. Dovanos, and told him that some one was getting into Mr. Barns's house, and Mr. Dovanos went round and told the police, and the police went into the house and secured the prisoner. Mr. Tyrwhitt committed the prisoner for trial to the next sessions of the Central Criminal Court. THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, JULY 7, 1865. , SHARE LIST. ORDINAILY diIAKES AND STOCKS.

The last share number issued to Midsummer, 1868, was No. 30,047. The estates allotted siuc3 the last Lady-day report have been the following:— Clapham Junetion'Estate, 'Kist Surrey, Ist portion, 29th April, 1868. Ditto, ditto, 2d portion, 24th Juno, 1868. The executive committee have much satisfaction in being enabled to inform the members that the first portion of the above property, divided into 113 plots, was entirely dis posed of within such a short period as to justify the board in announcing a second allotment at once, the result of which has been a very large sale of the 181 plots on the second plan, which has frontages to Wandsworth-common. Bolingbroke House, with the grounds, will be reserved for the present. No time will be, however, lost in the opening up of the estate by the making of five new roads, connect ing the Battersea-rise with Wandsworth-common. The Clapham Junction Estate, from its extent and position, is adapted for sites to erect houses thereon to suit all classes of the community. The remaining allotments fcr the pre sent financial year will be Holloway Estate, on Thursday, the 16th inst. ; the 'Waterslade Estate, Red-hill, on the 24th ; and the Northampton Estate, on the 19th of August. These three properties will be the last allotted by the so ciety, the business of which at Michaelmas will be con fined to advances and ‘r the Benefit Buil ling Acts, whilst the dealings in land will be carried on at the same offices by the United Land Company (Limited), which has com menced operations in purchasing estates. Considerable sales have taken place on the St. Margaret's Estates, the building on which is progressing. There are now but a few plots remrtining, with frontages to the ornamental dardens, to be disposed of. The land left on hand on the Roehampton and Putney-heath Estates is now confined to a few plots. The roads on the Malvern Link and Sandown (Isle of Wight) Estates have been completed. It is ex pected that the works on the fourth portion of the It mind Hill Estate, Brighton, on the second portion of the Forest Gate Estate, and the Finchley Estate, No. 2, will all be completed before the close of the year. The members of the Conservative Land Society have invested largely in the United Land Company (Limited) since the last report of the executive committee, which announced that inves tors might join both society and company if they thought fit, the liability in both cases being confined to the amount of the shares taken. The members of the Conservative Land Society will continue to have the option of taking shares in the United Land Company (Limited). The Con servative Land Society will be enabled, on the termination of its 16th year, to extend largely the building advance business, and thus develope more rapidly the estates which will be in the hands of the United Land Company (Limited), and the working of the two on the co-operative principle will promote the prosperity of both associations.

ROYAL COLLEGE OF SURGEONS.—The last exami nation of candidates for the membership of this in stitution for the present session will be held on the 18th inst., and already, owing to the new regulation requiring all students to undergo an additional examination in medi cine, unless they should already have done so, which comes into operation in October next, the number of gentlemen whn have entered their names is considerably, iu excess of former periods. . THE CASE OF SERGEANT FLERON.—The Nord announces that the King of the Belgians has signed a de cree, sparing the life of Sergeant Fleron, condemned to death for shooting his commanding officer. The French Government have granted to Baron Emil Erlanger, of Paris, and Mr. Julius Reuter, of London, an exclusive concession for 20 years to lay and work a submarine telegraph cable between France and the United States. BoARD OF TRADE, June 31.—The Board of Trade, in exercise of the powers vested in them by the Merchant Shipping Act, 1867, have exempted from the rule to be observed respecting limo or lemon juice and other anti-scorbutics to be carried by foreign-going ships those ships bound from any port in the United Kingdom to ports on the Eastern Coast of America situate between the 35th and 60th degrees of north latitude, and also all ships bound to any islands or places in the Atlantic Ocean, situate within those limits. Provided always—first, that the exemption shall not extend to ships which may by the terms of their agreements be also bound to any place out of those limits; aud, . secondly, that the exemption shall not extend to ships. bound to any part of the coast or islands of Greenland situate within the limits aforesaid. The sporting seasonorse races, ha s f r fairly ocaotm races, commenced nidn base-ball America, and there are h matches in profusion. On the Jerome Park race course Privateer has won the Feather Stakes, and Local took the Westchester Cup, valued at $2,000. The rowing match at Philadelphia between Janes Hamill, of Pittsburg, and Henry Coulter, of Alieghany, Pennsylvania, for the championship of America, resulted in the up setting of both the boats, and no decision. THE HAR VARD CLASS REGATTA took place on Monday, Juno 15. The class races of the Harvard University were rowed in presence of 5,000 Bostonians and others, who filled the grounds of the Alma Mater. Four boats entered —viz., the Scientific and Law School, the Juniors, Sopho mores, and w ha e d re in )ff j ft h ra i el s 'eely hand so n t t h lLyman,l e ° d S ay o before the race, making things look blue for that crew. Will Blaikie, the well-known college athlete, acted as starter. At the first send-off the Junior stroke broke his oar, aud the boats were recalled. Ou the second start the Sophs took the 1ea,.1, Freshmen second, Junior.) third, and Scientifics last; but the distance be tween the first and last was not more than a length. At the end of the first half-mile the Scientific took the third place. and at the end of the first mile took sccjnd, the Sophomores also passing the Juniors, who ha I got ahead of thin nearly. The Freshmen now ha I tile lead, and turned the turning sake, t tking the inside track. Now a tight struggle ensued, but the Freshmen had pluck to spare, and came home with a wild cheer ; winning by fifteen and a half seconds to the surprise of all. The following are the names of the crews, and the time made by them :—Scieu title and Law School : .J. Hawthorne (stroke), R. H. Jo rome, H. U. Sargent, J. J. M'Cook, W. Rowland, and R. W.

The Marquis TOWNSLIEND said, in moving the socoul reading of this bill, that ho ro;rettol that Govera ment thought them>olves compiled to olvoso the read ing, therefore he would not tak.; up their ti_u; but would ask that the bo discharged. The order was then discharg INDUSTRIAL SCIIO )LS BILL. The order for this bill was also discharged. ITETROPOLIS LOCAL MANAUESIEN P ACT BILL. The order in this bill was also dischargal. AFFAIRS IN NOVA SCOTIA Lord STBA.THEDEN presented a petition from Nova Scotia, alleging the existence of much dis content in the province in regard to the Act passed lust Session tmder the title of British North America Act, au t mwrsd that an humble aldro3.; be presented to her Majesty to appoint a commission to pro ceed to Nova Scotia for the purpose of examining the allegeA cansesof dissatisfaction, with a view to their removal. 110 said that the cause of discontent was the Confederation of Nova Scotia with Upper aid Dever Canada, the former province preferring still to rehab attached to the British empire instead of being included in the Confederation. The issue before the House was net as to the merits of the Confederation, which subject had been so often discussed. With regard to it he was ready to concede what they liked. Bat they had not met to review the advantages of confederation, but for the purpose of ascer taining what was the amount of disaffection. The noble lord entered i Ito a statement as to the iin2ortance of the stronghold of Nova Scotia, and said that although England deprecated a war with the United States, yet Nova Scotia in such an event WAS most important as a military and naval station, and by the discontent to which he reforrel we ran the risk of losing it. Earl Grey, the late Duke of Newcastle, Sir John Bargoyne, and many others considered Halifax as One of the most important strongholds that we had. Under these circumstances it was most j !alously to be guarded, a,3 the loss of Halifax and Nova Scotia would be of the most vital importance. -He - would now enter into a few of the facts connected with the disaffection he had spoken of. In 1863, in the month of July, a general disaffection took place in Nova 1 Scotia. The population was aroused to sp:. , OA. - upon car taia subjects of discontent. _During the Parliament of ;h:it yea . r a great organic change took plqce. The '• true object of discontent was that as Nova Scotia was i always intensely British, and in all great demon strations against England she was most loyal and ' always first to oppose invasion, therefore was she the first to resist being dissevered from the Bri tish Empire. When the members of her Parliament assembled at Halifax iu January following shown 1 that they were the partisans of Coafeleeaeion their discontent arose. In consequence of this fifteen resolutions wore framed, and delegates had been many months iu this country ready to express the discontent that was felt in Nova Scotia. Another subject of annoyanee was that Canada. had re fused to enrol the Nova Scotian militia. The new local Parliament of Nova Scotia assembled in August and the question must speedily be decided on. Woul lit be sup posed that &scent eat would pass away unless something was done before the Bth of August? He did not believe in the statement that the union of peoples must aroaso some discontent., nor was he of opinion that unions of that descri, tion were always successful. The local Par liament will meet is a few Weelee and this question must then be settle 1 or lea 1 to all the evils which he had shadowed forth. With regard to the manner iu which the discontent was to be dispersed, there were one or two ways. The one was that of repeal, but this, when the session was almost exhausted, was impossible. Thera was another means, and that was that there should be a committee appointed to inquire int 3 what were the causes of disaffection. This inquiry could not be made by the Governor-General, because that would only preci pitate an outbreak, and however clover an I dispas sionate he might be, his opinion coming from the Go vernment of Canada would create uo respect.. The inquiry should be by commission, and would be accepted as a fair investigation ; and it would have the effect of drawing out in Nova Scotia whatever feeling there was in favour of Confederation, and would elicit the opinions of those who did not join in tFee discontent. The Duke of BUCKINGHAM, while regretting that the notice of motion had been so long before the house with out action being taken on it, pointed out that the alleged grievances arose entirely from the course adopted by the first Canadian Parliament, and these had teen completely removed by the action of the tuccceding Parliament. The feeling in Nova Scotia was far from being unanimous against the Confederation ; in fact, it was the feeling of as small majority. He pointed out the great advat.tage which Nova See tia would derive by joining with her sister colonies. Ile deprecated any inquiry by Commission, and urged that her Majesty's Government would do all that they could in a spirit of conciliation towards the province, and would use their influence in Canada in favour of a similar policy. Lord CARNARVON vindicated the course which Government had taken in the matter, and want through dates and facts 'to show that the course a lopted had been approved by the other Provinces, and sanctioned by both houses of the Home Legislature. lie hoped the house would reject the prayer of the petition. The discussion was continued by the Marquis of Normanby, who was against any Commission, and by Lord Lyveden, Lord Lyttelton, and Lord Airlie, who were also opposed to it, while the Marquis of Clanricarde was in its favour. Lord Russell briefly added that ho thought all the representa tions of such a loyal colony deserved the gravest con sideration. Lord STRATIIEDEN declined to divide the house and then withdrew his motion. The Boundary Bill passed through committee, but on its report being brought up, Lord RAVENSWORTH moved as an amendment that Jarrow should be added to the borough of South Shields. This led to a brief discussion, in which several peers took part. Eventually the amendment was pushed to a divi sion, and being defeated by a majority of 19, the bill passed through committee. The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and their lordships adjourned at 10 minutes to nine o'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS--LAST EVENING. The SPELIC.EIt toak the Chair at 4 o'clock, WINDSOR BARRACKS. Colonel LESLIE asked the Secretary for War whet her he had seen the report in the papers of the sanitary coin missioners of the Lancet on Windsor Cavalry Barracks ; and whether there was any truth in that report as to ttm bad state of the barracks? Sir J. PAKINGTON said he had seen the report, but he thought the complaints with respect to married soldiers' quarters were somewhat overstrained. Comparing the condition of married soldiers now with what they were ten years ago, he thought the arrangements were very satisfactory. They had already spent £llO,OOO in im proving the quarters of married soldiers, and now the outlay was between £30,000 or £lO,OOO per annum in order to secure each married soldier a separate room. He thought that it was making too great a demand that soldiers having four or five children should have two rooms. With regard to the shortness of water, ho did not think, so close as the barracks were to the River Thames, such complaints ought to exist. CAVALRY HORSES. Sir R. ANSTRUTHER asked the Secretary of State for War whether his attention had been called to Captain Cockerell's Report to the Co:nmissionera of the Paris Ex hibition upon the new system of shoeing horses irate duced by M. Charlier, and now extensively used in Paris, and whether he would give directions that a trial of this system of shooing should be made at the Cavalry Depot at Canterbury. Sir J. PAKINGTON said he had seen the report, but as he was in communication with the proper offieers he oould not at that moment give an answer to the questio n . THE ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH. Col. FRENCH, in the absence of Mr. Dillwyn, asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether it was true that negotiations, contingent upon the passing of the Tele graphs Bill either in this or the next session of Parliament, for the purchase of their interest in telegraph companies by the Government, had been entered into by the Post office authorities with certain railway and other com panies, notwithstanding that a select committee of the house was I1)W conducting an inquiry into the whole question of the expediency of the Government's taking up the telegraphs; and, if so, whether ho would lay a copy of the suggested form of agreement upon the table of the house? Tho CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said an agreement had been entered into with the electric tele graph companies and the railway companies opposing the bill subject to the approbation of the committee. If it was approved of there would be full opportunity given to tho house to express its opiui un the subject. THE DOVER FORTIFICATION 3. In rep:y to Mr. DIXON, Sir J. PXKINGTON sald he had re.luivod intelligence through a private slur , :e that a schooner, whilst lying in Dover Roads, hat been struck by a shot from the bat teries, and he had given directions that a moat searching inquiry should be made into the circumstance. THE REGISTRITION BILL. Mr. lIARDY moved that, first, the orders of the day bo postponed, in order that the R:gistration Bill might be read a third time that it might be sent up to the House of Peers. • The motion having been agreed to, The SPEAKBR put the question that the bill be read a third time. Mr. CANDLISH wished to call the attention of the house to a decision which had been given in the Court of Common Pleas on Saturday last, which was to the effect that tenants of a portion of a house were not subject to th 3 piyanat of ra1.33, ai therofora u.)t cu- t!tlod to the 4raue7iiie as h.) balicved it wa; iu- tended they shoalff (Rear, hear.) The effect of .the decision of the Chi !f Justice of Common Pleas would be to disqualify from between 100,000 and 200,000 parsons, whom it was intended to onfranchise. In the b)rough he representol he believed b:itwoen 2,000 and 3,000 would be prevented from t•ileu4 prt is the next election, and in Newcastle-upon-Tyna the num'rr woall ba between 5,000 a-id 6,00). The now R3forin Bill, accarding ta that decision, would not enfrancliis thal ons-half tll3 nu alto r that was intends-0, an 1, as it was a matter of such great impirtanc3, to-morrow hs should ask the right hen: gentlern to wLtether he intended to bring in a short bill to give effect to that which was the intention of Parliament. (hear, hear.) Mr. NEWDEGATE wished to know what steps were to be taken to prevent houses being unduly crowded is order to obtain a vote. Mr. HARDY said there was nothing in the act abJut crowding hous3s. The great question to be decided would be, was the person claiming qua!itled to vote ? Sir G. BOWYER expressed r,.gt'et th it evidence had not been hoard on the naatt3r, an 1 113 qa.:stion33d very much whether the registration would be carriel out satis factorily. The bill was then ra,d a third tinip and passed CaRRUPT PFLA.:;TICES AT ELEJTIONS BILLS. Tile house then went into co nraitte.: oa this bill. On clause 5 being proposed, Mr. BOUVERIE moved that the clause and all clauses following up to clause 18 inclusive be omitted. He did so because he believed that the provisions were such that the whole intention of the measure would be frustrated.. The right hon. gentleman moved a number of clauses to take the place of those proposed to be left out : the first set forth the place at which the trial was to be held, the next provided for the appointment of three additional judges, " and the other clauses provided that every such election inquiry should be presided over .by one of the judges of her Majesty's superior Courts of Common Law at Westmin ster, such judge not being a member cf the base of Peers, and such judge should alone decide every question of law arising ou such trial, whether relating to the admissibility of evidence or otherwise, and slieula direct the said com- mittee upon the law by which their decision was to be governed, and such committee should accord ingly, as a jury, give their decisioa only on the facts of the case : provided always that such trial should proceed and be con lacted in all 'respects iu the same way as a trial at Nisi Prim., or a cri minal proceeding before a jury. Oa the conclusion of the trial the judge,ha proposed, should certify to the Speaker the result of the trial, at the same time stating if any and what corrupt practices had prevailed. Ile thought if the house were to adopt his amendments, that great good would result, and they would have a tribunal which would do the work far more efficiently thau at present. Sir P. COLLIER objected to the ammlneuts, the more so as they did not provide for any local inquiry, an ar rangement very gmerally desired, and also that no provision WAS made for au inquiry being Urea - when the house was not sitting.. (Hear, hear.) He thought if the house parted with the jurisdiction of conducting these inquiries into corrupt practices, the power should only be given to the highest judicial authorities. He obj3ctul to give it to barristers of ten years' standing or county court judges. (Hear, hear.) It had been said that the inquiry would b.: too severe, but he did not thick that could be so, for if there was corruption existing it was well for the country that it should be known and ruotel out. Mr. LOPES' supported the amend aunts of the right hon. member for Kilmarnock. Ile nought that the proposal to try these ele:tion incriir:es by an ass•eeser a.id a kind of jury selected from that house was one of the best arrangements that coul I be made. Mr. lIUGESSEN said the select committee having de cided upon the house giving up iti jurisdiction, he thought the best thing to do was to agree to it rather than fritter ing the time away of the house in useless dis,:us,ions, which would only prevent anything Wing done at all dur ing the present session. (Hear, hear.) Mr. HENLEY supported the chaise, bacaule it gave th e .security of a jury, rather than making their decisions rest upon the opinion of one man. Mr. MILL said ho wished it could ba mala unlawful for bribsry to be tolocatel, and that could not ba done as long as PArliament itself took the initiative in deciding the question. If the matter vas d6cidad by an indepen . dent tribunal, a mach more satisfactmy state of things would result than that which at present existed. Mt. GLADSTONE, though personally preferring, both to the bill and to Mr. Bouverie's amendment, a plan con templated by Mr. Ayrton (to institute preliminary in quiries by effi.;ials specially appointed, and to be called attorneys of the Rouse of Commons), pressed the Govern ment to facilitate the progress of the bill by accepting Mr. Mill's amendment ; but Mr. DISBIIELI declined to give any opinion at present as to the expediency of limiting the duration of the bill, though ho promised favourably to consider it when it was propo.s -ed as a substantial amendment. Mr. Bouverie'i4 amouclm3nt, ho intimated, would be considered as fatal to the whole principle of the bill. Mr. Lopes and Sir C. O'Loghlen supported the amend ' went, and Mr. Knatchbull-liugessen supported it. On a division there was a majority of 77 against it, and in favour of the bill-201 to 127. The committee was occupied with the bill up to half past ten o'clock, but no material amendment was made in it until clause 10, which sanctions the appointment of two election judges, and on this an important decision was arrived at, which for the moment has brought the bill to a stop. Mr. AYRTON suggested that, instead of nominating two judges to bo - specially set apart for this duty, one judge should be added to each of the Common Law courts, and election petitions should be tried indiscriminately by the general body of judges, according to a settled rota. Mr. Russell Gurney, Mr. Kerslake, Mr. Denman, Mr. Sergeant Gaselee, and others supported this plan, and The SOLICITOR-GENERAL, in opposing it, pointed out that the remonstrance of the judges against having this duty imposed on them was not withdrawn, and hinted that the adoption of this scheme might imperil the bill. Mr. LOWE strongly protested against this line of argu ment. It was the duty of the house to create the best tri bunal in its power, without reference to the protest of the Judges, or to the possible action of the House of Lords. He strongly urged the Government, therefore, to consider their determination, and to commit the jurisdiction to the Common Law Bench, reinforced by the addition of three new Judges. • . Mr. DISRAELI admitted that this might be the best course, but, remembering the effect of the Judges' protest on the House of Commons, it was possible it might be equally powerful with the other house. It was therefore necessary to consider not so much what was best as what would be most likely to be carried ; and, not being pre pared to risk the success of the bill, he declined to assent to the suggestion. On a division Mr. Ayrtou's amendment to omit the essential portion of the clause was carried by a majority of 65-136 to 71. Upon this Mr. Disraeli moved to report progress, with the view of considering what could be done to meet the views of the house, but he added that he could not conceal from himself the great difileulties ho had to contend with. The further progress of the bill was then adjourned until Thursday. The Army Estimates were the next business on the paper, but befere going into supply, Major ANSON interposed with an elaborate attack on the manufacturing department of the army, which he ac cused of gross waste, extravagance, misrepresentation, and even falsification of accounts. Under the head of gun manufacture especially Major Anson pushed his attack into minute detail, supporting it by a great mass of figures, and concluded by a comprehensive resolution containing three propositions—first, that in order to secu-o greater accuracy of accounts an annual statement of the stores in possession of the troops and in the arsenals be laid be fore Parliament ; next, that in order to prevent the Go vernment manufactories becoming monopolies a certain proportion of stores be purchased from the private trade ; and, lastly, that the manufacturing departments be worked as private firms. Sir J. PAKINGTON complained that Major Anson had given no notice of his most serious charge against the manufacturing departments; consequently he was unable to answer them on the spot. To the first proposition Sir John made no difficulty in acceding by way of experi ment, though he pointed out it would be very costly. To the second he rep'ied by showing in what large propor tions such stores as clothing, gunpowder, small arms, &c., are purchased from private manufacturers, and on the third and most important of Major Anson's proposals, while acknowledging its desirability, he refused to commit him self without further consideration. The Marquis of HA.RTINGTON held it to be imprac ticable to conduct the Government manufactories as pri vate firms, and on that account chiefly he urged that Major Anson's charges against them should be strictly in vestigated. Mr. Otway, Sir G. Bowyer, and General Herbert made some observations on the same subject ; and Lord Elcho, on Major Anson's behalf, offered to submit his case to a select committee or any other inqui,ition. The practice of iutrusting privates and non-commis sioned officers with 20 rounds of ball cartrilge in time of peace was mooted by Mr. HAI TER, and these preliminary discussions occupied the house until so late au hour that the army estimates were postponed until the next supply night. The Earl of MAYO brought in the Registration Bill for Ireland, which, like the English bill, is confined chiefly to the process of revision. It provides that the process shall be completed between September 8 and October 6, so that the lists shall be in the hands of S heriffs by the Ist of November. It also contains provisions for facilitating the making up of the supplemental lists of lie w voters, and the general result is that everything will be ready for a general election in Ireland about the same time as in England. The house adjourned at a quarter to two o'clock. 7HE COIVSERVATIVE LAND SOCIETY.

Eugene Pelouze has found that naphthaline prevents plants from being attacked by insects. Its effect is not to kill either ono or the other, but a very small quantity is sufficient to effectually drive the insects from the plant, and he believes that in this substance florists and agricul turists will find a very serviceable friend. ode unrtr Tyrx, Basil and g 03 pub cf a time soner and ining 3UtOr ulti ming Leath, a pri. )ened ;sible eying oned )os:a 0 rail- 3oner v 0 0 rose n hi 4 „i z ed, roVea r tho id i a Df 10 1 pl." a ient ad in pri beea e fivo )rac that that ;circa bill larne 3uCC 4 ~400 Mr• ►tion post• an vich ttur- luni" )arly w 35 toula g the 3d to sub take ;end, ppli-. iedi- isioo bi of en. haul' sectl- ulial . and °pa ct wits rilOS ° C iOll4 aible• ed 0 1 over fresh ees i bail rsdai e de' I the bales• both ) rallY icrat° t°
