By such a removal ho did not think that anything beneficial would accrue. It wouldnot be the right use of the moral power entrusted to the University. Tho religious teaching might be very small, and some persons car ried it farther and said that it was only a sceptical teaching. He denied in the first instance the fact, but even if it were so it was no argument why the whole machinery should b 3 destroyed because of this scepticism. When the sa, went down the great. landmarks would reappear, and so it would be when sceptici.srn • . passel away.

The Duke of DEVONSHIRE sa d he would make a few remarks Lpon what was the Wate of the feeling of the University of Cambridge on the subject. lii con sidered that there was a gr:►dually growing feeling that these tests should be abolished.

STATE OF PUBLI J BUSINESS. Lnrd MALMESBURY having moved the adjournment of the house till the Bth of June, Lord RUSSELL rose to call attention to the state of public affairs, and, after reciting the events which fol lowed upon the vote of the House of Commons respecting the Irish Church, declared it was extraordinary and un precedented that a Minister, being in a minority in the House of Commons, should remain in power for six months after advising the Crown to dissolve Parliament. He admitted that the course pursued was convenient to the Government and to the members of the House of Com mons, but ho imputed to the Government a desire to protract the Reform discussions, which ha I needlessly prolonged the present session. He sought from the Government an assurance that measures would be taken to expedite the Registration, and urged more rapid progress with the Irish and Scotch Reform Bills and with the Boundary Bill. It was also desirable, he urged, that the Government should, on its appeal to the country, de c'are what were the principles upon which it relied for public approval, specially referring to the questions of education and the state of Ireland, upon which no definite policy has as yet been propounded. Quoting the Hyde torder, Lordsadmitted o u o f Park riots and the Manchester rescue as e vidence s of the R G C ou o ms s v l •n ol m nr es 7 ae t rn t tde o da p st r to e e s td e h r ew v e ah de p vt e he a er c Br th a a a ' omaintainriy e u e as a constitutional principle that it was wro n g to hold office without possessing the confidence o f the Hous e of o Government t Commons. Lord MALMESBURY admitted the constitutional prin ciple, but denied that it was proved the present Govern ment did nut possess the confidence of the House of Com mons merely because it was not supported upon one ques tion by a majority. The test of a motion of want of con fidence had not been applied, and therefore it was reason able to assume that for the conduct of the general business of the country the Government did possess the confidence of Parliament. He attributed the backward condition of Parliamentary business to the unnecessary intro duction of the question of the Irish Church, to the destruction of which he declared himself a determined opponent, and concluded by stating that the Government were as anxious for a dissolution as any of their opponents could be. The house then adjourned until Monday, June 8. COMP AGNIE GENERALE TRANS ATLANTIQUE, 8, Place Vendome, Paris.

The Royal consent was given by commission to a num ber of public and private bills. The members of the Royal commission were the Lord Chancellor, the Earl of °ado gan, and the Earl of Devon. The business of the house wa s postponed until 5 o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The following bills were read a third time :—Norwich Union Life Insurance, Cork Gas, Cork Improvement, Haverfordwest Borough Bill, Midland Railway, Merthyr Stipendiary Magistrates Bill. heCha rman of Committees moved that the time for depositing petitions to bo heard against private bills; which would otherwise expire during the adjournment of the house, be extended to Monday next. RELIGIOUS TESTS. The Earl of KIMBERLEY presented petitions from the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge against the impo sition of religious tests in those Universities. A groat many of the colleges had subscribed to this petition. There were only six colleges where there was a majority against it. In some it was almost unanimous, in others government of the col there was a majority o f two-thir ds. It was considered a great hardship th at in the Universities no person could become one of the leges unless he w as a meeker of the Chur c h o f E ng l an d. He could understand such a regulation if members of other denominations were exclude d altogether, but it appeared very arbitrary w h e n they formed a porti om o f th e consti cuent body. He had bro u g ht for ward last session a bill, hwehicshuggheostowdasths:t the rrYtosaywas reject e d, i n whi c h restriction a s t o t h e t es t s i n who would be ex e the elu de universities if number it w of thetwere r e shouldno so, middle ben and wle io abolished, awss and, cousikleriug the great were r not members of the s Church of Eugland e it would be considered highly desir able. The religions instruction was really so little that while he was a member of the great College of Christ church, all they had to do was to get up a short lesson in the Greek Testament, and learn by heart the 39 Articles, and then they were left to themselves. Lord HOUGHTON said he hoped that the business of the Session would not prevent a bill which was already before the other house being brought before them before long. . The Earl of CARNARVON -said that since he sat in their lordships' house three distinct phases had been in troduced as to this question of University tests. He con - sidered that it was an attempt to lower the Government standard of the universities, but never to effect that to the utmost extent. It was an attempt to hand young men over at the ago of 17, 18, and 19 to a system where no religious securities would surround them. It was much the same if you removed the educational otoritios, and to th a t V_Tory no would object o 4 ithar. M!•. COWPER differed from the hou. and learned gen tleman. Hs thought the proposed sito was the most convenient that could bY adopted, and mach to b 3 pre ferred to that of thy Thames E:nbank neat. It seemed altogether to have escape I the attention of the hon. gentle man that the !leases that woall have to by purchased if the site was re:neve:l t) the Thanns E abank . nent would cost twice a; much as those of C tray-street and the stit ,, rounding neighh )arlio )d.

Tile present silo up to the pre3lat time had c33t .£78),0)0, but the c?et of the whole site would be .£393,003. That was the known cost of the one p3sitiou ; what th 3 other w..mld b 3 on the Thames Embankment, no one could tell. Mr. W. E. FORSTER, asked Mr. Disraeli what stops he meant to take for expediting the dissolution of Parliament on the new constituency early in the autumn, and he pointed out various abbreviations of the processes of re gistration by which the now Parliament could be brought together by the 12th of November. Mr. HIBBERT held that without disturbing the present arrangements a general election could be got over by the middle of Decea..ber, so that candidates might eat their Chastmas dinners in peace, and the new Parliament might be called together. in January. Lord ELCHO maintained that the question affected others besides the ocenonti of the two front benches, and protested against the holidays of private members being taken np in electioneering unless a great public necessity could be shown. There was no adequate justification for straining the ordinary machinery of registration merely to take a general election a month earlier, for though the Government was in a minority on the Irish Church, on the subject of Reform, both this year and last year, it had commanded decided majorities. On the contrary, the public interest required that the election should not be precipitate. Mr. CLAY urged that the house ought to press for a dissolution at the earliest mommt, in order to justify its long toleration of a Ministry in an unconstitutional posi tion. Mr. M. GIBSON maintained that all contested business should be dropped, instancing the Electric Telegraphs, Foreign Cattle Importation, and the Corrupt Practices Bills; but Sir R. KNIGHTLEY insisted that this Parliament was pledged to go on with the Corrupt Practices Bill. After some observations from Mr. OTWAY, who was for an early dissolution, and from Mr. WHILLEy, who thought that the country should have ample time to apprehend the great question at issue, Mr. DISRAELI, replying first to Mr. MILNER GIBSON, reminded him that he had already stated that the labours of the ssssioa should be confined to necessary business, meaning thereby the Supplementary Reform Bills. The Election Petitions and Corrupt Practices Bill he should give up with a pang, and if there ware time he should de sire to go on with it. The other bills mentioned were in the hands of the house, though there ware particular rea sons why they had not been formally withdrawn. To Mr. Forster's question ho was not in a position to give a more precise answer than that which he had given two days ago, and it was a subject on which it was useless to speak ex cept with the greatest precision. The subject had been for some time under the consideration of the Government, and though there had been several disturbing elements— such as the delay in passing the Boundaries Bill, and in the necessity of settling the Scotch and Irish boundaries— it was hoped they would be overcome. But in preparing any proposition for the consideration of the house it was most important that no suspicion should be suggested to the minds of the new electors that an attempt was being made to neutralise their privileges by hurrying and hustling on a general election. The result of this pre cipitancy would be the return of a Parliament in the election of which the great body of the people would think it had had no share. Mr. GLADSTONE, referring with much severity to Lord Elcho's speech, rejoined that this was not a question to be settled by its effect on " private membeis' holydays," , and that the "situation," as described by the Premier him -1 s th el , f . ,:lled for the earliest possible dissolution. Thera were difficulties arising from the extreme inexpediency, under the circumstances, of employing the machinery of d constipuencies; but though nearly a month ago Mr. Disraeli had confidently stated that they could be sur mounted, his tone was now chan t ; .d. He had nothing but a vague hope to hold out, and could not even promise when he would satisfy the house. Mr. Gladstone, there fore, impressed on him the grave necessity of bringing the matter to an issue, and aided that if the Government were not ready after the recess to declare their intentions, it would be the duty of independent members to take it up. Mr. PAULL animadverted on what he hell to bo the angry and dictatorial style of Mr. Gladstone's speech, and generally on the violent and unrestrained tone of recent debates, instancing particularlyMrßouverie's gross attack on the Government a week ago, and the "lie direct" given by Mr. Bright to Mr. Liddell on Thursday. Those who had contributed most to the delays of the session had the least right to call for the withdrawal of important measures, and of all the Bills before the House Mr. Glad stone's Suspensory Bill was the least necessary. Though personally in favour of a dissolution as soon as the busi ness of the Session could be got through, time ought to be given to the country to understand what they had to de cide upon. _ _ After some remarks from Mr. COGAN, Mr. HARDY pointed out that until the Boundary Bill had been pushed forward it would be impossible to decide what precise measure would ba necessary. He denied emphatically that the Government had changed its tone. Those who were skilled in the subject had their attention fixed upon it, and, if au opportunity were given, the Go vernment would do what they could to hasten a dis- solution. Mr. CARD WELL expressed himself quite satisfied with this assurance, and here the subject ended. Before going into Supply, - Mr. GREENE put a question to ths Government as to their intention of granting a Royal Commission on coal mine accidents; on which Mr. Ayrton took the opportu nity of vindicating the efforts of Parliament to prevent these accidents; and Lord Elcho remarked that what the miners desired was, not further inquiry, but immediate practical action. Mr. Newdegate and Mr. 'Whalley also made soma observations, and Mr. HARDY replied that the Government, but for the disorganisation of the session, would have attempted to deal with the question. Mr. D. GRIFFITH, in moving to rescind the rule of debate which forbids allusion to debates of the other houss, referred to recent infractions of it in language which Mr. Gladstone applied to himself, and which drew from him an explanation on the subject. Mr. Disraeli defended the rule, and the motion was withdrawn. Mr. WHALLEY made a long speech on the recent riots at Ashton and other places in Lancashire, blaming the Government and the local authorities for not affording protection to Protestant lecturers, and urging the neces sity of an inquiry into the origin of these riots. Mr. HARDY rebuked Mr. Whalley for raising these irritating discussions, and intimated that the Government would make no inquiry except that which would result from the impending trials. Mr. BAZfiEY exhorted Mr. Whalley to use his influ ence to withdraw Mr. Murphy from the Northern towns, where he was creating a feeling dangerous to life and property. SirC.O'LOGIILEN in moving for a copy of the Declara tion against Transubstantiation, entered into a long, and, as the Speaker pronounced it, a disorderly explanation of his motives in placing on the paper the notice of motion which had attracted so much attention, to relieve the Sovereign of the necessity for taking that declaration. He denied that Mr. Gladstone was cognizant of his notice, that it made any alteration in the Coronation Oath, or that it affected any of the securities for the Protestantism of the Crown. Mr. NE WDEGATE expressed his unaltered conviction that this was an attempt to tamper with a portion of the Act of Settlement. The motion was not pressed, and after Lord Mayo had fixed the committee on the Irish Reform Bill for Monday fortnight the house went into Committee of Supply, and the votes in Class 111. of the Civil Service Estimates (Judicial Expenses) were completed. Some other business was disposed of, and the house ad journed at a quarter to 1 o'clock. The screw steam gun-vessel Assurance, 4, Com nvulder Jobn B. Scott, from the West Coast of Africa, arrived in Plymouth Sound on Tuesday morning, and brings news that on Friday, the 16th of May, there ar rived at Fayal au American ship with emigrants from Liverpool, bound, it is supposed, to New York. Sho had run down by night the bark Joseph Hume, Captain Morris, from St. Vincent for London. Her helmsman got on board the emigrant ship. Cries of assistance proceeded from the Joseph Hume, the crew of which wished the American to lay by all night ; this was done, but in the morning nothing could be seen.

L_ The 'Earl and Countess of Wilton have left town, for Cowes, Isle of Wight. They have gone there in order to recruit the noble earl's strength, for since his recent attack of gout, although recovered from the malady, his lordship does not regain strength. N EIV S PAPE t THE LATE STO - -- • ... The storm whicht,broke over the metro :.: 4 3 anral§ parts of the North of ,England o n Fr'eay "t: e severest known for many years. The Victoria Tower of the Houses of Parliament was struck by lightning in the afternoon. The House of Lords was sitting at the time for the purpose of hearing appeals. The shock was sensibly felt, and their lordships suspended their sitting& for a short time in consequence. It was ascertained that no material damage had been sustained, and the Fatting was resumed. Several sheep were killed,/by the fig,btning at Streatham, and a horse at Wanilsworth. T w , t ; men were knocked down by the electric fluid at HaniLlersmith and severely injured. The premises of Mr. Davy-,:„of No. 1, Church-street, Hackney, linen-draper, and a wooden house in East-street, Bromley, were struck by', lightning, but although much damage was done, one was injured. A most serious acci, cleat; befell a Party of five who left Newington-causewai. in a waggonette about ten o'clock in the morning, At Ewell the party stopped for refreshment at a public. house. Three of the number went into the house, while the ether two, named Turner and Draper, stood at the mare's head to keep her gala. While they were patting her head there came a very vivid flash of lightning, which struck the mare and the men, and knocked them all, (town, the mare falling upon the two men. Those in the house immediately ran out, and found to their horror that Turner was dead and that Draper was insensible. The mare was much frightened, but beyond a few scratches was unhurt. A medical man, who was near at the time of the occurrence, rendered ina ) mediate assistance, but up to a late hour Mr. Draper was reported to be in a precarious condition. Mr. Turner's body is stated to be much disfigured.. At half-past six o'clock, a beautiful rainbow set in the heavens, and while it lasted was observed with great interest. Up to mid, night there were frequent flashes of lightning, witholit the accompaniment of thunder or rain. At Brighton the lightning descended the chiraney'be• longing to a boys' school, driving a register-stove from its position ; it then ascended into the drawing-room, scatter. ing the fireirons and throwing the fender to the other side of the room. Fortunately, no bodily injury was sustained, An inspector of police, on entering the telegraph office, was met by a flash passing friniCene instrument to anOth — e - r. He was stunned and temporarily blinded, and it was a considerable time before he recovered his eyesight. The worst calamity, however, which we have to record took place in the neighbourhood of Birmingham. At, Saltley, Mr. Lilly, who keeps a fog - signal manufactory, was in a shed looking on at the storm, when he saw the shed, in which there were about 300 gross of fog. signals, illuminated with lightning which played along the edge of the roof and lighted up the interior. There was an immediate explosion. The fog-signals went off, one package after another. Fire burst from the roof of the wooden shed and burned with fury. Six girls were inside, four of whom were rescued, but were so fearfully burned, that two of them are not expected to recover. Two of the six remained inside. The fire was not extinguished until the lapse of about two hours and a half. Then the bodies of the two children were recovered. They pre. sented a most sickening spectacle. Their skulls were shattered, the arms and legs were separated from the body % and the flesh was burnt off their faces to the bones. Her Majesty intends to give a concert at Buck ingham Palace on the 19th of the ensuing month, and will give, towards the latter end of June and early in July two breakfast parties at the same Palace. THE PROPOSED RAILWAY AMALGAMATION IN THS SOUTH OF ENGLAND. —Meetings have been held at Hastings, Canterbury, and Margate, at which resolutions condemnatory of the proposed amalgamation of the rail. ways serving those districts were adopted. THE PRINCE AND PRINCESS OF WALES.—Exten. sive improvements are in progress at Sandringham House, the Norfolk residence of the Prince and Princess of Wales. Should the Prince and Princess pay a visit to Sandring ham during the summer months, they wilt occupy for tha . time Park House, the seat of General Knollys. TENDERING EXTRAORDINARY.—A correspondent of the Builder states that the committee for restoring St. Peter's Church, Berkhamstead, have accepted a tender for £390 ; the next was £B5O ; and the highest £1,170 ! The correspondent writes to know how these " frightful differences occur." THE 34TH FOOT.—His Royal Highness the Field- Nlarshal Commanding-in-Chief has been pleased to sanc tion the wearing of a laurel wreath on the forage caps by the sergeants of this corps. Colonel Gwilt, C. 8., in com municating the fact, congratulated..the sergeants, as the ;;Ith is the only regiment in the British service to whom the ornament is allowed.—United Service Gazette. ANOTHER. CLUB HOUSE. —The committee of the new club, now called the Marlborough Club, have pur chased for £lB,OOO the freehold property in Pall-mall known as the British Institution. The contract for the building, which is to be erected from the designs of Mr. David, Brandon, has been taken by Messrs. Trollope and Sons.—• Builder. A LARGE FAMILY.—The King of Siam has just published an official list containing the names of his children, with the dates of their birth and of the decease of those who have departed this life. The royal family numbers eighty-one children, the eldest of whom was born in 1823, and the youngest in 1868. ixty-six of these are still living. The last king but one had sixty-three chil dren, and thirty still survive. A man named Flauratty, who is a sort of under agent on a property in the county Monaghan, having ren• dered himself obnoxious by inducing the landlord to charge rent for the bog on it, which was never done before, twelve armed men broke into his house the other night, and " warned him that if he did not desist from giving his master bad advice the consequence to himself would be very unpleasant." They then went to the house of a. bailiff on the property and gave him a similar caution. THE CONFESSION OF MURDER IN NEW ZEA.- ',lND.—Esther Hoskin, whose circumstantial confession, at New Zealand, of murdering her sweetheart by stabbing him and throwing him over a cliff near Helston, has been reported in this paper, was two years ago indicted at Bodmin Assizes for arson, and acquitted on the ground of insanity. The man she says she murdered is alive in California. The supposed motive of the confession is a desire to return to England. This statement has been for. warded to New Zealand, where Hoskin is in custody.—. Tres:ern Morning News. LORD BROUGHAM'S FUNERAL.—An Edinburg} gentleman, travelling in the South of France, in a lettei dated Cannes, May 24, writes :—" This afternoon, at five o'clock, the remains of Henry Lord Brougham were conveyed in a plain deal coffin, covered with black cloth, and nailed down with plain black nails, without any orna,.. ment or superscription, carried in a musty old hearse dragged by two sorry horses, to the public cemetery at Cannes, and pushed into a vault so clumsily that part of the black cloth was torn off the coffin. A clergyman read the customary prayers at the mouth of the vault, and then laid on the coffin two of those common wreaths of immortelles ; then a Frenchman stepped forward and read an empty eulogium, the gist of which was that Lord Brougham had been the means of bringing the English to Cannes. A motley collection of odd-looking vehicles fol lowed the hearse, containing Lord Brougham's relatives and friends. There were also some Frenchmen, and the remnant of the English whose avocations do not allow them to leave the place with the fashionable world. When we arrived at the cemetery, we found a crowd of peasantry—men, women, and children. I followed the hearse the whole way ; it was a hot and a long walk." —Scotsman. THE DUKE OF EDINBURGH. —The Lancet is enabled to give some additional particulars of the wound inflicted on the Duke of Edinburgh by the villain O'Farrell. Upon examination a circular depressed wound, about a third of an inch in diameter, was found on the right side, about one inch from the spinous processes of the vertebral column, and over the ninth rib. There was indicated the hemorrhage. As no external appea rances the course of the ball, it became a source of anxiety to discover the direction it had taken; and, it was found necessary to probe the wound. When the probe had entered about two inches it would not pass further, probably becoming entangled in torn muscular tissue. Ills Royal Highnes3 suffered extremely from shock ; the pulse was almost imperceptible, a cold per spiration bedewed the face, he frequently requested "more air," and made several attempts to vomit. Ice and iced el= p tune were administered ; and, to admit the air more freely, the sides of the tent were cut and rolled up, the temperature being about SO deg. Fahrenheit.. After an hour the Duke rallied considerably, but com plained of great pain in the right thigh and leg, in the course of the large nerves. An hour and a half having elapsed, the pulse had become more natural, the pallor had lessened, and the sickness passed off. A re-examina tion was now made of the right side of the chest, which . shewed the breathing to be perfectly natural. The Lancet adds that under the care of Dr. Wright and Dr. Watson hie Royal Highness lies progressed 111 4 ikY2ALY towardcresayery. Face Powder, is. AIR-CURLING FLUID, 248.

In reply to Mr. SCHREIBER, Mr. DISRAELI said he could not at that moment say on what day the Corrupt Practices at Elections Bill would be proceeded with, but he would state the day on the house meeting aft-r the holidays. CAPTURE OF A BRITISH SUBJECT. Mr. WYLD asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if any information had been received from her Britannic Majesty's Ambassador at Constantinople an nouncing the release of Mr. J. W. Stevens, a British sub ject, who had been captured by brigands near Smyrna ; and if the restoration of Mr. Stevens cannot be obtained without the payment of the money demanded by his cap tors, application would be made to the Ott9man Covarn ment to pay the required ransom ? Lord STANLEY regretted he could get no information on the subject, but a mail was due from Constantinople that day, by which he hyped to gat soma intelligence. THE STEAMSHIP GA.RON STE. Admiral ERSKINE asked the Vice-President of the Board of Trade if the board would institute an inquiry into the loss of the steamer Garonne on the Land's Ead, which was said to have boon causod by a want of slani tuship, wird - to have been attendecl✓bps - great loss of-life ? Mr. CAVE said an inquiry into the whole of the cir• eumstances had been directed by the awe:an:mt. THE RIOTS AT ASHTON. Mr. WHALLEY asked the Secretary of State for tho Home Department whether it was the intention of the Government to institute any inquiry as to the origin and nature of the recent riots at Ashton and other places, in the c,muty of Lancaster, and at Birmingham and other places, in the counties of Warwick and Staffotd ; and whether the G - vernme3t had made any and what provision for the bAter protection of public lecturers and those who may attend such lectures in the event of threats to suppress such lec tures by riot and outrage, and then prevent the recurrence of such riots as before referred to? Mr. HARDY said he had practically answered the ques tion tho other evening, but ho had now to repeat that it was not the intention of the Government to institute any inquiry whilst the trials were proceeding. With respect to the latter part of the question, that rested entirely with the local authorities. OBSTRUCTIONS IN THE STREETS. Mr. OTWAY asked the First Commissioner of Works the cause of so many of the principal streets in the metro polis being blocked up by work going on in the roads. It was exceedingly inconvenient when London was fullest that the roads should I.» obstructed ; but it sc...amed to be the general practice whenever the ordinary traffic was increased that was the exact time chosen for repairs. Lord JOHN MANNERS said the Government was not responsible for the control of the public streets. The funds for their maintenance were not taken from the Con solidatel Fund, hut were contributed by the ratepayers, and the representatives of those parties were those who had the management of the streets. It was no fault of the Government that the roads were so bad in Flo many places at that particular period. THE IRISH CHURCH. Mr. GLADSTONE said the committee on this bill stood for Friday next, and as it would be for the con venience of hon. members, he begged to ask what course the Government proposed to take with respect to this bill ? Mr. DISRAELI said he thought the bill a vary bad one, and that it was useless to attempt to improve it. 110 should therefore offer no formal opposition to the com mittee. THE BOUNDARY BILL. Mr. WALPOLE brought up the report of the select committee on this bill, and said it would be in the hands of members on Monday next. THE NEW LAW COURTS. _ _ On the motion that the SPEIKER do leave the chair, Mr. B. COCHRANE called the attention of the house to the site of the law courts. He thought it was the duty of the house to consider this matter before it was too late. They had already laid out a vary large amount of money, but after all it was the opinion of all competent persons that the plan proposed could not be carried out on the site proposed. It was most lamentable that a great sum of money was to be expended in erecting the new law courts on the site near Temple Bar, which he contended was altogether a mistake, when such a fine position as the Thames Etnbankment could now be had. He hoped the Government and the house would pause and reconsider the whole matter before the building was commenced. It was not because they had acquired a questionable site that, therefore, they were compelled to raise the proposed new courts on it. Mr. M. CHAMBERS was of opinion that the present site was most objectionable, as it was surrounded by the dirtiest and most dilapidated buildings in the metropolis. He con demned the whole seheete, because it would cost an enormous sum of money, much more than the most ex travagant now expected, and the result would bs total and miserable failure on account of the unmanage able nature of the site selected. He thought in this country too much was sacrificed in ex terior grandeur, and not solidity and sedateness in architecture in the country. Nothing seemed to go down now but the cathedral style of architecture, and way it should be so he could not understand, because he found as a rule that all b co.nztru tefl of late in that style were, in, fact, most inconvenient, and, to a great extent, not at all adapted to the parpe ;a in tended. Ha thought it woel I be the wisest course to a I ept to call in tire a 'vie) of a com petent person to ascertain what was the value of the site at present acquired, with a view to either re-setting or letting it off cn building leases, and to set about selecting a position on the Thames Embankment for the new Palace of Justice. He did not go along with those who said as we have got a site we must build upon it. He thought that instead of a loss being sustained by the giving up of the proposed site that a gain would accrue to it, as in the disposal of the ground things were man aged in a businesslike manner. At all events, he thought the proposed site about ono of the worst that could have I been selected. RUPTURES.-BY ROYAL LETTERS PATENT.
