It would the of Com ment; to determine afterwards whether the bridge should be free or not. The Government had, of course, no object i n • pos ing a toll, if the house provided the money. (Hear, hear.) The vote was then agreed to. On 35001. being proposed for defraying the expense of cons t ruc ting an embankment and public roadway between Battersea and Vauxhall bridges. Mr. W. BROWN objected to grants of this kind alto gether, for the benefit of the richest city in the world. Col. SIBTHORP objected to the principle of saddling the public generally with the expense of improvements in the metropolis. (Hear, hear.) Mr. HEYWOOD considered that as no public or na tional advantage would be derived from the improvements to which this vote was to be applied, the metropolis ought to bear the expense itself. (Hear, hear.) Mr. DISRAELI thought this vote involved a principle of the utmost importance. The various counties throughout the country supported their own bridges, and he had been very much surprised at the opinion expressed by the hon. member for Montrose, who had stated, some two years ago, in bringing forward a motion on the subject of reform, that he had always found that population and pronerty went together. If that proposition were a true one, it was clear that the large population of the metropolis was no reason for requiring that its bridges should be paid for by the united contributions of all the counties in the country. (Hear, hear.) He really thought a stand ought to be made against the system of taking from the public purse for the use of the metropolis sums which must be supplied by the whole country. (Hear, hear.) When he and his hon. friends had complained of the excessive weight of local taxation which pressed especially upon the rural districts of this country, they had always been told that those that system of taxation had its peculiar advantages. All advantages, whether real or assumed, had, however, beenn. w ithd r awn of late, and he thought it was t he duty_o o f o ho orn. gentlemen, when such votes as that now before th mittee were proposed, to scrutinise them ed upon just ver y closely, . and ascertain whether they were found ed P principles or not. It did not seem to him prin ciple that the various counties of this cyroanunbtrrrdo.sehso,ultdo be called upon, besides paying of the county o f contribute to the expense of the bridges for their o_ Middlesex—(hear, hear)--and that, toor,ieoneetthee.tplea th at in the the county of Middlesex contained the h world. He thought they ought t o . oppo se this v l ot y e, for he able to lay the believed that by doing so they might b founation of a much more salutary sy than now pursued with r egard to the distribution stem of votes for was public works. Sir W. MOLESWORTH expressed his ccrdial concur rence in many of the ohs°, rations of the right hon. gentle man, and especially in the principle that henceforth the metropolis should be required to bear the expense of its own public works. It must, however, be borne in mind that there was not in the metropolis at the present moment any municipal body which had the power of rating the in habitants for these purposes, and that the inhabitants could not be so rated without the adoption of some prin ciple of representation. The Government, he might ob serve, had this subject under their consideration. When it was determined that a royal park should be made at Battersea, with a bridge and embankments, the Commis sioners of Works were empowered to raise slims amount ing (as we understood) to 350,000/., upon the security of the tolls, &c., for the purpose of carrying out the projejt It was at first proposed that the money required should be borrowed from the Exchequer Loan Commissioners, but it was afterwards considered that the better course would be to come at once to Parliament, to state what would be the expense of completing the works which had been com menced, and to ask Parliament to provide for their com pletion. When he (Sir W. Molesworth) came into office, he desired that the estimates might be laid before him, stating how soon the works would be finished, and what sums it would be necessary for Parliament to vote annually, in order to complete them as speedily as possible. If they gave up the embankment the bridge would be completely useless, and without the bridge the park would be compa ratively of no value. He was informed that the cost of the works would be altogether 524,0001. Of that amount the Exchequer Loan Commissioners had furnished 280,0001., and therefore 244,0001. remained to be provide d by Parliamentary votes. He believed, supposing the park to be completed in 1855, that by 1862-3 they would realize from ground rents and other sources 326,0001., and 62,0001. in connection with the Chelsea embankment, making alto gether 388,0001., in addition to the tolls from Chelsea bridge, which were estimated at 6,6001. a-year. The right hon. gentleman opposite had said that bridges ought not to be constructed for the metropolis at the public expense, and it was entirely upon that ground that provisions had been made in the acts of Parliament for levying tolls upon the bridges. He fully approved of the principle that great metropolitan works should be paid for by the metropolis itself ; but he hoped the right hon. gentleman would with draw his objection to this vote, as it was connected with the scheme for the formation of Battersea-park. Mr. DISRAELI said, it was in consequence of the plan for making a park at Battersea that he particularly opposed this vote. They were told by the right hon. baronet that the plan of asking for votes was adopted in consequence of the objection which he (Mr. Disraeli) on the part of the late Government, had made to the system of advances by the Exchequer Loan Commissioners for carrying out this project. The right hon. baronet had not stated, however, that the commissioners had ceased to make these or similar advances, for at present the machinery for such advances still existed, although these votes were proposed in Com mittee of Supply. He (Mr. Disraeli's) objection to the advances by the Exchequer Loan Commissioners was, that very considerable expenditure was thus incurred triithout any proper control on the part of Parliament, for purposes of a local and partial character, and which had really no thing to do with the general convenience and interests of the country. (Hear.) The right hon. baronet said in effect, "We intend to continue the same pernicious system, but, in consequence of the statements you made, we shall con• tinue it by other means." Now, he (Mr. Disraeli) con sidered that Battersea-park ought never to have been made. He objected to the expenditure of half-a-million of money upon the formation of such a park. He wished to stop the system—(hear)—for why should they not be called upon to-morrow to make a park at F i n s c u mmittery. (Hear e of .) He considered that every vote granted supply for these objects was an additional argument in favour of analagous appeals to th e Legislature. Such object ought, in his opinion, to be accomplished by local funds, and if the committee entertained the same view they would resist this vote. He thought the time had come when they must put an end to these grants of public money for local objects, for it was most unjust to continue such a system. He therefore earnestly recommended the committee to oppose the vote, and if they succeeded in resisting it, he believed they would put an end to one of the most flagrant systems of expenditure that had ever existed. (Hear, hear.) Mr. WILSON cordially concurred in the sentiments expressed by the right hon. gentleman ; but he must ob serve that, when the present Government came into office, last December, they found the works for which this vote was required very far advanced ; and although the late Government had not commenced those works, yet they had not stopped them. (Hear.) It was complained that the works were not sufficiently under the control of Parliament, but he had stated to the house at an early period of the session that they would be carried on, but that, as votes would be applied for in supply, they would be continued with the full cognizance of Parliament. Mr. DISRAELI said the hon. member for Westbury was mistaken in supposing that no attempt had been made by the late Government to stop these works. The subject had been been brought before him when he was Chancellor of the Exchequer, and it appeared to him of the greatest importance to the public interests that measures should be adopted for stopping all works of the kind. He took the earliest steps in his power to discontinue advances, and he had entirely opposed all grants for the establishment of a park in Finsbury, which was proposed to the i late Government. t was represented to him by a very large deputati on from that populous and wealthy district, that it was of the utmost importance that such a park should be made, proposition h a e ad he told them he would consider the trict would contribute would inform him what sum the dis rpoi,vtsoet he object. He was sorry to say, however, that the wealthy community of Finsbury were apparently pull() pre p ared to advance a single pound sterling for the (Tar, and laughter.) The late Government, therefore, had given no encouragement whatever to such projects. Sir W.

Manners), and the then Chancellor of the Rube quer—(hear, and a laugh), in order to empower th e Comm i ss ioners of Works to proceed with the e m b ank _ menus before such agreements were made. Mr. FRENCH was sorry to say that the argum en t s of the right hon. gentleman the member for Buckinghamshir e had fa il e d i n carrying conviction to his mind. He be lieved that the property would pay every sixpence laid out upon it. He entirely disapproved of the toll the of upon übli the b r id ge , which would shut out a great portion p from enjoyi n g c the a d va ntages of the park.

JOLLIFFE said that having gone through the evidence which had been taken before the commissioners, he should not offer any opposition to the amendment of the noble lord the member for, the city of Lo-adon, that no new writ be issued during the present set tsion. He wished to know whether the noble lord intended early next session to deal with these boroughs, or whether he proposed that they should remain, be their population more or less—disfranchised, with aview of considering them in connexion with a general measure of Parliamentary reform? The matter was one of great importance as it involved a great constitutional principle. They had issued this session six commissions affecting no. less than 11 members ; and before that the borough of St. Albans and the borough of Sudbury had been disfranchised ; there fore no less than 15 members were excluded fro Ea seats in that house. It was for the house to consider whether they would proceed to legislate on so great a question. as that of a change in the constitution of the house, with those vacancies continuing. He thought it was ver y desirable that the noble lord should express what the intentions of the late Government were upon that point. Lord J. RUSSELL could only so far state w . hat the in tention of the Goverment was as to say that WI aen all the reports of the several commissioners should be printed the Government would consider what measures ought to be adopted with regard to the different places rhich were affected by them. As to whether it would be advisable to include them in any general measure, or to deal with them by a separate one, was a question which must be left open for consideration. As to the discussion of any great measure of reform, he did not think any advantage would arise by the house issuing writs for the election of new members by those corrupt boroughs. Certainly, such a course would not afford any advantage to the house in the consideration of any great measure of Parliamentary reform. The motion for issuing the writ for Canterbury was then negatived. The Crown Suits Bill was read a second time. Defacing the Coin Bill, and the Linen, &c., Manufac tures (Ireland) Bill passed through committee. CUSTOMS, &c., ACTS.

Mr. LOWE obtained leave to bring in a bill to c ontinue a ppointment under the act for consolidating the Copyhold and Inclosure Commissions and for completing proceedings under the Tithe Commutation Acts ; and the bill was sub sequently brought in and read a first time. Mr. WILSON obtained leave to bring in a bill to autho rise the inclosure of certain lands under the Commissioners for England and Wales ; and this bill was also brought in and read a first time. On the motion of Mr. WILSON the house, at its rising, was adjourned till Monday next. The house then adjourned at 1 o'clock. SPURTING INTELLIGENC. BRIGHTON RACES-FRIDAY.

LATEST BETTING AT MANCHESTER (FRIDAY). There was a thin attendance at the rooms this morn ing, and business dull in . the extreme. The following would be, in his opinion, not by any means a wise pro ceeding to discontinue them. The committee then divided— Ayes Noes 94 27 -67 Majority The vote was then agreed to. On the vote of a sum not exceeding 20,0001., to defray he expenses of the harbour and lighthouse of Ardglass, in the county of Down, Mr. MACARTNEY objected to the vote on two grounds ; one was, that he did not believe that the country would receive advantage commensurate with the expenditure, and the other was, that if the Government we re prepared to lay out money upon harbour accommodation, they should fall back upon the report of the Tidal Commissioners of 1851. He suggested that the vote should be postponed till next year. Mr. IRK objected to the vote. The report of the Tidal Commissioners of 1845 was clearly to the effect that an outlay upon this harbour would not be at all advantageous, and that opinion had been confirmed by a later report. The money proposed might be much more advantageously expended, and he was clearly of opinion that the vote ought to be postponed. Colonel DTJNNE supported the vote, and expressed his surprise that any Irish memb er should propose so small a sum as this for an important local improvement in loveme n reland t , after voting a large sum for metropolitan improvements out of an Irish income tax. Mr. FRENCH was one of those who had supported the metropolitan votes referred to, because he thought they were intended to promote important public improvements ; but he felt bound to object to the present vote, because he did not think it would serve any useful purpose. (Hear.) Mr. WILSON explained that the vote had been recom mended by Captain Denham and Mr. Rendall (the commis sioners who were appointed by the Government to report on the subject), and who were of opinion that the improve ment of tha harbour would not only be of great advantage to the coasting trade, but would tend to prevent the occur rence of the numerous shipwrecks which now took place in the neighbourho od of Ardglass. Sir R. FERGUSON hoped the vote would be with- M dr Mr.CAIRNS suggested that, at all events, it should be postponed until the Government had ascertained whether the money could not be laid out to greater advantage on some other part of the coast. Mr. G. A. HAMILTON said, it was impossible that for 20,0001. Ardglass could be converted into a harbour of refuge. He thought it would be better to postpone the vote until they had ascertained which was the best site for a proper harbour of refuge, which he maintained was es sentially necessary. Sir J. GRAHAM protested against postponing the vote in order to have an inquiry with regard to a much larger work ; but with regard to the smaller question as to whe ther 20,0001. should be laid out on Ardglass or not, he had no objection to postpone the vote. (Hear.) The vote was accordingly postponed. On the vote of 4,0001. for the purchase of Archer's pa tent perforating machine. Mr. V. SMITH wished to know what advantage the Government expected to derive from this machine at all commensurate with the snm of 4,000/., which seemed to him a monstrous sum to give for it ? (Hear, hear.) The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, he thought the committee who had inquired into the subject must have formed a high opinion of the advantages likely to result to the public from the adoption of Mr. Archer's invention, or they would not have recommended its pur chase. Re must say his own opinion was, that the patent was worth the money they were giving for it. (Hear, hear.) As the patent had been purchased without any reservation, any person might make use of it, and it might be applied to bankers' checks, or any other purposes. The vote was then agreed to.: On the vote of 5,0001., as compensation to Sir W. Snow Harris for his expenditure of time and money in perfecting a mode of applying electric conductors on board ships, whereby great saving of life and property had accrued, more particularly in her Majesty's navy, Mr. HUME said he believed the adoption of this inven tion had been the means of savin g a large amount of pro perty, and he asked whether the Government would pro duce any papers or documents in their possession showing the merits of Sir W. Harris's conductors ? Sir J. GRAHAM said he would have much pleasure in laying on the table the report of the Admiralty to the Treasury, strongly recommending the conductors invented by Sir W. Harris, who, he thought, had contributed more to the preservation of life and property than perhaps any individual he could mention. Sir W. Harris had never, until this time, received any grant of money whatever , although the public, her Majesty's service, and the mer chant service had had the free use of his valuable inven tion ; and he (Sir J. Graham) never in his life recom mended any reward with a clearer conscience than he did this vote. The vote was agreed to. The next vote was for 30,000 1 ., for the purpose of laying down an independent line of wires from London to the con tinent, and thus to enable her Majesty's Government to join a convention recently concluded between France, Belgium, and Prussia, for regulating the transmission of messages by electric telegraph. In reply to a question from Mr. Hume, Mr. CARD WELL said that a convention had been agreed upon between certain foreign countries forthe establishment of electric communication throughout the whole continent of Europe. This country was invited to join the conven tion, bat the Government of the day did not accept the invitation because they had no power of establishing a communication with the wires upon the continent, That communication, had, however, since been effected, and he thought it most important that the Government of this country should avail itself of the advantages of the con vention. The advantages of joining the convention, so far as the diplomatic service was concerned, were the right to priority of intelligence, to send messages in cipher, and to the continuous transmission of messages, which might be sent through several countries without any delay. Then the advantage with regard to commercial messages was this --the English language was not allowed to be used in the transmission of English messages across the continent, unless the British Government were parties to the conven tion. If the Government of this country joined the con vention, messages in the English language might, however , be sent to all the continental countries the Governments of which had agreed to the convention. The estimate now proposed included the sum required for laying down six independent lines wire from London to Dover, and thence to the opposite coast. This was the estimate of the whole cost Parliament would be called upon to incur. He had been informed by the Foreign Secretary that, even if this arrangement were confined to the transmission of diplo matic messages, it would be attendedwith great advantage. He (Mr. Cardwell) had, however, to deal with the com mercial bearing of the question, and he was most desirous that, if any just and fair arrangement could be made, the benefits of this mode of communication should be avail able for the interests of British commerce. (Hear, hear.) He might observe that it was not intended that any of the lines of this telegraph should extend beyond London, or interfere with the perfectly free competition which now existed between the electric telegraph compa nies whose lines were established in this country. In reply to Mr. HUME, Mr. CARDWELL said that the States which had already joined the convention were France, Belgium, the Nether lands, Hanover, V urtemberg, the German States, Prussia, Austria, Bavaria, Saxony, Switzerland, and Sardinia. In answer to a question from Mr. BRIGHT, Mr. CARDWELL said he had been assured by engineers that the vote they proposed would be fully sufficient to carry out the plan, and that no further vote would be re quared. Colonel SIBTHORP viewed the proposition with the utmost suspicion. He objected altogether to the principle of trusting to foreigners, who, he was sure, were trying to undermine the country to which he was proud to belong. The vote he considered absurd, ridiculous, and dangerous, and he must protest against it. Mr. COBDEN thought that it would be more advan tageous to endeavour make arrangements with some exist ing company before asking for a vote of public money to establish a new line, and he did not clearly understand on what principle the line when established would be worked. Mr. CARDWELL said that the object of the new line would be to obtain means for diplomatic and Government correspondence, but at the same time the commercial in terest of this country would derive the same advantages as that of the other nations who joined the convention. It was most expedient that the Government should have the power of laying down an independent line. Mr. COBDEN wished to know whether the lino pro posed to be laid down was to be at the service of the public, or only to be used by the Government. Mr. CARDWELL hoped that advantage might be given to the public without using that line for commercial purposes. Mr. COBDEN did not think that the necessity of the vote had been clearly established. It did not appear to have been considered whether the same purposes could not be accomplished by the line already established. It was not clear that the use of cipher in diplomatic correspond ence could not be employed in existing lines ; and, as to priority of intelligence, it had not been shown that ex isting companies would not have entered into arrangements to afford that priority. He was not quite satisfied that it would not have been possible to enter into an arrange ment by which the Government could have sent a clerk of their own to work the wires, so that any message could be dispatched in cypher or otherwise. There had been so much mystery in the explanation which had been given by the President of the Board of Trade, that he should like to have heard the matter fully discussed. Mr. CARDWELL explained, that one of the principal reasons which rendered it advantageous for this country to join the convention was, that the whole of the lines were worked at present under monopolies granted by the Sove reigns of the various nations. The vote was agreed to. On a vote of 2,5001. for the funds of the Royal Dublin Society, In answer to Mr. F. Serrwav, ix , J. J.
