Mr. HUME said, as this clause would meet the object he had in view, he would give it his support. What he waut,sd was to empower the Court of Directors or the secret committee to record their dissent whenever they happened to differ in opinion from the Board of Control. Sir J. HOGG was sorry ho could not, consistently with his sense of public duty, support the clause. , Mr. DISRAELI wished to make an inquiry of the Go vernment with respect to the statement of the hon. bart., that her Majesty's Ministers were responsible for the peace and security of India, and that the responsibility should rest with those who exercised the power. He wanted to know whether the power of recalling the Governor-Gene ral of India was to be left with the Court of Directors ? He would not go into any question as to the propriety of leaving that power with the directors ; but he thought'it was one of the most important powers which could be con ceived; and if her Majesty's Government were to be held responsible for the government of India, it appeared to be quite impossibl e th a t th ey cou l d fulfil that responsibility if no change was made in the power of recalling the Governor-General. Sir J. HOGG had confined his observations to the secret committee. Sir C. WOOD said the responsibility connected with questions of peace and war, and of negotiations with native princes, had for the last twenty years rested with her Majesty's Government, and he proposed to con tinue it there. Daring the same period the Court of Di rectors had exercised the power of recalling the Governor- General, or any other public officer, and of that power he did not propose to deprive them. Mr. HUME said one of his objects in supporting the clause was to enable the secret committee to communicate their proceedings to their colleagues in the direction. At present they were not able to do so, except with the con sent of the Board of Control. Mr. RICH should vote for the clause, because it would give reality and substance to the remonstrances which the secret committee could now make. Mr. OT WAY said it was important it should be known in India by whom public officers were recalled. At present that could not be known, in consequence of the directors being compelled to sign disp a t c h es aga i ns t w hi c h th ey h ad solemnly protested. Allow them, however, to record their dissent, and they would be relieved from a disagreeable position. Mr. BLACKETT observed that Mr. Tuckett, an East India director, whose memoirs were lately published, speak ing in reference to the Affghan war, said that he had felt humiliated at his name being mentioned in connection with that war, although he had not concurred in the order of the secret committee in which it originated. He (Mr. Blackett) thought that responsibility should always be laid on the proper shoulders, and he should, ther e f ore , su pp or t th e amendment of the hon. baronet. Mr. V. SMITH did not much admire the constitution of body like the secret committee, and he quite understood how humiliating it must be to be compelled to sign orders in respect to which there was no responsibility and no credit. On this account he should have wished that the Court of Directors should be smaller, in order that the secret committee might be done away with, and that the orders might be transmitted through the whole Court. But he thought there was much force in the objections which had been stated by the hon. baronet the member for Honi ton, against registering the dissents of the members of the committee, sad he should, therefore, not think it advisable 1 to support the amendment. The committee then divided— , For the amendment... 3O Against it Majority against —42 Mr. HUME moved the insertion of a clause extending the qualifications of electors of the Court of Directors to all persons having 5001. stock in the East India Company, and having had that for 12 months, as by the present law; a l s o, all holders of co mp any ' s p a p er to the value of 10,000 rupees; also, to allow every civil and military servant who had served the company 20 years in India, and who should have retired from the service of the company, to vote for a director after he should have been 12 months at home, and t a 2 ra i 2 a en 9 d n ra th e s n a t ft w e s r aas h id e tht should have resigned the service, and to enable all electors to vote by proxy.

He therefore felt himself compelled to oppose the amend mead. Mr. WISE supported the clause. Sir C. WOOD considered that there was this fatal ob jection to any increase in the existing constituency in the inas incr now proposed, that it would be totally inconsistent wit le the decision to which the house had already come, viz.., that the government of India should, for a time at lea st, be vested in the East India Company ; that was, iu tin, propriet ors o f E as t I n di a St oc k.

The Lords' amendments to the following bills were considered apd agreed to :—•British Electric Telegraph Company, London and North-Western Railway (North ampton, &c.), London and North-Western Railway (St. Alban's, &c.), West Harptry Road. The following bills were read a third time and passed: —Banbridge, Dublin, Newry, and Belfast Junction Rail way, Galway Improvement, Warrington and Altrinchan Junction Railway(Warrington, &c.), the Duke of Atholl's Estate, &c. EASTERN UNION RAILWAY. Mr. COBBOLD moved that the amended special re port of the Eastern Union Railway Bill, and the third reading be taken to-morrow. Sir G. PECHELL and Mr. CARDWELL opposed the latter part of the motion, and it was ultimately with drawn, and the former part was agreed to. Sir G. PECHELL then moved that the third reading be taken on Thursday next, and in the meantime that the opponents of the bill be at liberty to point the evi dence—Agreed to. PETITIONS. Mr. MIALL presented a petition from a place in Lan cashire, praying for the repeal of the taxes on knowledge. Mr. A. PELLATT presented a number of petitions from dissenting bodies in Southwark against the opening of the Crystal Palace on Sundays. Mr. HADFIELD and other hon. members presented petitions against the Government Education Bill. ENTRY OF SEAMEN BILL. On the motion for going into committee on this bill, Captain SCOBELL reminded the house that the bili had arrived at it 3 present stage without any statement in explanation of it having been made to Parliament. Now, he thought that was not right, and he hoped the right hon. baronet the First Lord of the Admiralty would take this opportunity of giving some explanation of the nature and object of the bill. Sir G. PECHELL did not think that any explana tion was necessary, as the object of the bill was suffi ciently well understood. It was looked upon by seamen as the charter of the navy, and he hoped no time would be lost in passing it into a law. Sir J. GRAHAM said it was from no want of cour tesy to the house that he had not yet entered into any ex planation of the object o f th e measure, b ut in the Dresent state of the session it was hardly advisable to waste time with lengthened explanations. He might, how h e ver, mentio n now , s i nce t hi s appeal had been made to im, that the object of this bill was to increase the pay of the lower, second, and first class of seamen en which m tering herade IVlajestys service by id., 2d., an d 3d . a d ay, sty s to grant a bounty of one fourth to seamen in cases of emergency, and leave the amount to be paid to the discretion of the Government. Sir G. TYLER, hoped the Government would lay on the table of the house such portions of the evidence taken before the Naval Commission as would not be detrimen tal to the public service. Mr. A. STAFFORD said the evidence was of a pri vate and confidential character, and ought not to be pro duced. Mr. WILLIAMS had ne ver oppos e d any vote for the purpose of making the navy deficient, but he wa s a f ra id the service would never b e i n the St be until flogging was abolished at e that it oug ht t o or, at a ll events, con siderably reduced. That mode of punishment had greatly service had become more perfect. The navy, h owever, kept up the old system, and the s erv i ce was therefore composed of second-class instead of first-class men _ He suggested that the same system of cour t s - martial which prevailed in the army should be extended to the and then there would be some prospect of the sen:vi-ce being rendered efficient. Mr. MACKINNON thought the French system of manning the navy might with some advantage be ex tended _ to the British navy. Lord MONK supported the well p as spothe army.salofestablishing courts-martial in the navy a Mr. HENLEY did not s attributetshhtil s, butedeenfitciency to men in the navy t o t h e sys t em o f punishments, causes connected with the pay.

The house then went into committee. On the question that the preamble be postponed, Captain SCOBELL said the house would do more towards manning the navy by resorting to a system of encouragement than one of punishment. At present, the amount of punishment depended very much upon the t3mperament of the commanding officer, and it was, therefore, requisite that some limit should be put upon his power in that respect. There ought also to be a redistribution of prize money, for, under the present system, the flag officer got too much and the seaman too little. Sir J. GRAHAM contended that the condition of the sailor was, if possible, superior to that of THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, JULY 26, 1858. elect the council or other body whom they might appoint to be the advisers of the minister for India ; but they notpcorlinldeinle of this consistently, with the eoins c s h te a n r t t l e y r, woirthwtihteh very existence of the East India Compa n y , p la c e upon the biil, or -ev en electoral body by whom the directors were chosen any other class of persons than those who were holders of East India Stock. Mr. T. BARING saw no force in the argument of the President of the Board of Control, that the constituency must be confined to the holders of East India Stock. The right hon. gentleman had himself introduced a great change in that principle, by giving to the Crown the power of no minating to the Court of Directors without any appeal to the Court of Proprietors, and without the qualification on the part of the nominees of being holders of stock. If the principle were applicable to the Court of Directors, it ought to be so also to the constituency who elected them. He wished to see an elective body whose interests should be identical with those of India, and who should be per manent and independent—a body to whom the Government might look in 1874 for the means of efficiently carrying on the government of India. On these grounds he should support the amendment to be proposed by the hon. mem ber for Warwickshire, which, if carried, would certainly identify the Court of Proprietors with the interests of India. He approved also of an extension of the Court of Proprietors, because it would materially affect the evil system of voting by proxy. He was a f ra id, h ow e ver , th a t the amendinentof the lion. member for Montrose would not meet his views. Lord J. RUSSELL begged to observe, before the com mittee divided, that the lion. member for Huntingdon carried the matter far beyond the Government proposition or the necessity of the case. The Government proposed to deal with a body, anomalous indeed, but whose practical administration of the government of India had been for the welfare of India; whereas the hon. member for Hunt ingdon would create a new and strange body, an indepen dent body, standing between the Crown and the people of India, and the working of which was a matter altogether of uncertainty. The point was one, at all events, which should be left to the wisdom of Parliament at some future time ; it was quite inappropriate on the present occasion. The committee then divided. The numbers were— ~ 54 For the clause Against it Majority —2o The clause was consequently lost. Mr. BLACKETT then moved to add the following words to clause 22:—"And whereas doubts have been entertained as to the extent of the powers granted to the Governor- General in Council by the 43d sec. of the said act of the 3d and 4th years of King William IV., it is hereby declared that the said Governor-General in Council shall have full powers to enact, alter, or amend any laws for the said ter ritories (subject to the restrictions specified in the said 43d section of the said act, as well as to the right of disallowance of such laws vested in the Court of Directors by the 44th section of the same), without any previous sanction of the said Court of Directors, except in the cases reserved by the 46th section of the said act, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in former acts or charters still in force and unrepealed." Sir C. WOOD opposed the clause on the ground that there was no doubt whatever with regard to the existing state of the law. There was an old axiom that prevention was better than cure. For that reason he thought it right that the Government should possess the power which they did, and he should therefore oppose the clause. The clause was then negatived without a division. Mr. RICH, who had given notice to move a clause, in quired before doing so whether his right hon. friend had adopted any regulations, and if so, what regulations, to provide for the great difficulties which attended the admis sion of the young natives of India into the college at Hal leybury Sir C. WOOD said it was impossible that he should have made any regulations of the nature referred to until he knew whether the house would assent to the principle of the bill which he had introduced. Mr. RICH concluded, then, that the right hon. gentle man had prepared no regulations on the subject. Although he was certain that it would be rejected, he felt bound to move the resolution of which he had given notice, and to press it to a division in order to show the sense entertained of what was due to the natives, not in word, but in deed. The hon. gentleman then moved a clause giving greater practical efficiency to the 87th section of the act 3d and 4th of William IV., c. 85, which declared that no native of her Majesty's Indian territories, nor any natural born subject of her Majesty resident therein, should by reason only of his religion, place of birth, descent, colour, or any of them be disabled from holding any place, office, or employment under the said company. Sir H. MADDOCK could not support the motion. Mr. BRIGHT believed that justice might be done to the natives of India without diminishing the sources of employ. ment for Europeans in that country, or reducing their emoluments. He was convinced that arrangements might be made which would render the natives of India just as well satisfied with British rule as the Europeans in India were themselves ; and it was because he believed that the proposition before the committee was just in itself, and consistent with the interests of both countries, that he asked the committee to assent to it and to force the Presi dent of the Board of Control to insert it in the bill. Sir C. WOOD observed that the object of her Majesty's Government was to do justice to all classes in India, and to extend the employment of the natives, not only with re gard to the numbers to whom employment was given, but also by promoting them to higher situations than they had hitherto filled. The hon. member for Richmond had stated that the clause in the act of 1833 had been a perfect nullity. Mr. RICH explained that what he had said was, that that clause was a nullity so far as the covenanted service was concerned. It was true that natives had been admit ted, under the company's authority, to minor situations, but they then reached a wall which, by the rules of the covenanted service, was impassable. Sir C. WOOD proceeded to say that the hon. member for Manchester (Mr. Bright) had stated that the clause had been an entire nullity, and that the natives had not been admitted into the service of the company. Mr. BRIGHT explained that he had said that natives were now only employed in offices which were just as ac cessible to them before the clause was passed, and the bar rier which that clause was supposed to throw down still existed. Sir C. WOOD said the object of the clause to which the hon. member referred was to promote the general employ ment of natives in India, and if the natives had been gene rally employed the clause was not a nullity. The hon. member for Manchester had complained that much higher salaries were given to Europeans than to the natives of In dia, but in the evidence taken by the committee it was dis tinctly shown that a much higher salary was required to induce a man of ability to leave this country to undertake office in India, and to expose himself to the climate of that country, than would be received for the performance of similar duties at home. It was necessary that European superintendence should be maintained in India, and large salaries must be paid to officers who occupied high posi tions, and who were called upon to discharge important duties. He must observe, however, that natives of India had been admitted to much higher offices than had here tofore been open to them, and Lord Dalhousie had given to a native the appointment of magistrate at Calcutta. Reference had been made to the petitions which had been presented to Parliament from India, but it was well known that those petitions were not wholly the productions of the natives, for they were partly got up by the English editors of newspapers. He would undertake to say that one of the petitions was written and got up by the editor of a newspaper at Madras—(hear, hear)—and was not, as it was represented to be, the spontaneous production of the natives. It was not necessary, in order to insure the ge neral employment of the natives, that they should be largely admitted into the covenanted service. The door was thrown open to them, practically, to a far greater ex tent than before by the general admission of natives to Haileybury College, and, for his own part, he believed that natives might be admitted safely and advantageously into the covenanted service. Lord STANLEY was afraid that the right hon. baronet was not fully aware of the importance of this amendment. Upon it turned the whole question whether or no the na tives of India were to be admitted to the civil service of the company. For himself, he thought the proposal of the Government, which professed to throw open the civil ser vice to unlimited competition, but which at the same time absolutely excluded natives of India, was a retrograde step. He did not say that because he approved of the old system of patronage, but because, while the old system could not have been permanent, the present plan would not be felt to be an abuse in this country, whatever it might be in India, and it would therefore be allowed to continue without im provement. He confessed he did not think it at all likely that any of the natives of India would come over to be educated at Haileybury ; but that was the less to be re gretted, because the educational establishments in Calcutta and other large towns in India were such as prevented the slightest fear of the education of the natives being much inferior to what it would be if they were educated in Europe. He should vote for the amendment. Mr. LOWE said he could not avoid expressing his surprise at the tone in which this question was taken up and dis cussed. Hon. members founded themselves on clause 87 of the act of 1833, which declared that no native should be disqualified, and they wished to see the spirit of it carried out. But in the military service, where no change had been made, the effect of that very clause was to produce an exclusion of natives. If that section was to be taken as the groundwork of their policy upon this question, it applied as strongly to military covenanted service as to civil covenanted service. By this bill they proposed, in stead of exercising a patronage confined to Europeans, to open the doors of Haileybury to any native of Indi a capable: of passing the requisite ordeal. Colour, religion, and descent had hitherto been disqualifications, but they would be so no longer. The bill, in fact, fully carried out the meaning of the clause, and it was, therefore wrong to op pose the bill in this particular, as if it were not intended to give full effect to the principle of the clause. It might be certainly that there would not be many Indians who would be able to compete with success, but that was not the fault of the bill, but the fault of the system of education pur sued in India. Then, it was said, that poverty might in terfere to prevent the competition, and it was suggested, that a third of the admission should be open to competi tion in India, If that system were adopted, however, it would be found that the effect would be that those who were elected under examination in India would be inferior to those elected under the examinations in England. Be sides, if the principle were good for anything, why should the numbers of admissions be limited to a third ? His opinion was, the Hindoos ought to receive fair opportuni ties for competition, and nothing more. His belief was that the bill was unjustly accused, and that for the first time it broke through the restrictions of European mono poly, more than that which a growing nation ought not to concede. Mr. M. MILNES said he could not vote for the clause of the hon. member for Richmond, although it appeared to be a fair logical deduction from the conclusions to which the house had come. The effect of this system of compe tition, he was convinced, would be to open the Indian population to the conviction that these ranks and honours were impossible for them fairly to obtain. After a few words from Mr. PHILLIMORE, Mr. RICH replied, and The committee then divided— For Mr. Rich's clause Against it Majority The clause was, consequently, rejected. 47 173 -126 Mr. NE WDEGATE moved the addition of the following clause, with a view of giving the proprietors of East India stock votes according to the value of their stock :—" At every ballot for the election of directors of the East India Company, the proprietors of stock or shares in any corn any or assoc i a ti on o f persons established by authority of arliament, or of th e governmen t o f I n di a, for the purpose of effectin g or carrying on by means of joint stock any un dertaking of irrigation, drainage, railway or other com munication, or other object of internal improvement in (India, under the supervision of the Government thereof such proprietors being qualified as hereinafter mentioned), shall be entitled to vote in respect of their paid up stock or shares, according to the scale following, that is to say, one vote in respect of 2,000/. ; two votes in respect of 4,0004 ; three votes in respect of 7,0001, ; four votes in respect of 10,0001. and upwards. His object was to en courage the application of capital and enterprise from this country for the improvement of India. He would not, however, divide the committee on the subject. The clause was then brought up and read a first time. On the question being put that it be read a second time, Sir C. WOOD acknowledged the temperate manner in which the hon. member had introduced the clause, but doubted very much that it would be wise to adopt it. The clause was then negatived without a division. Mr. J. G. PHILLIMORE then moved that the Chair man should report progress. Lord J. RUSSELL did not object to the Chairman re porting progress, but in the present stage of the bill he proposed that it should be proceeded with this day at 12 o'clock. After a few words from Mr. PHILLIMORE, the Chairman reported progress, and asked leave to sit again at 12 o'clock this day. CRIME AND OUTRAGE (IRELAND)_BILL. On the motion that this bill be s reacl a second time, Mr. MAGUIRE wished to have some reasons from the Government for the renewal of this measure at a time when Ireland was unusually tranquil. Sir J. YOUNG was happy to corroborate the statement of the hon. gentleman that Ireland was at the present mo ment in a state of great tranquillity. The act would not be necessary at the present time, if it were not that many circumstances had convinced the Government that the baneful system of Ribbonism extensively iraii;d; and it was against that, and that alone, that the provisions and powers of this act were directed. He was sorry to say that disturbances prevailed in the north of Ireland, while in the west and south they were tranquil. He denied that the act was intended to be directed against the liberties of the country, because every one who was the true friend of his country would endeavour to put down those outrages. With the ono single exception of these secret societies, he could congratulate the house and the hon. gentleman upon the general tranquillity and prosperity of the country. Mr. F. SCULLY contended that the peace of Ireland was not at the present moment in such danger as to re quire so stringent a measure, which went far beyond the necessities of the case. In the hands of a hostile Govern ment the bill might be enforced to a degree which would interfere with the liberties of the people. He complained also of the heavy additional taxation which the enforce ment of the provisions of the measure would entail upon the unfortunate people. If the north of Ireland was so disturbed let them pass an act applicable to it, but let them not visit the sins of the north upon the south of Ire land. The bill interfered with the liberty of the subject, and was a violation of the constitution, therefore he would divide the house against it. Mr. SULLIVAN protested against the attack made upon the people of Kilkenny, in the presence of the British parliament by the right hon. baronet the Se cretary for Ireland, Mr. BOWYER moved that the bill be read a second time that day three months. He did not think the bill was needed for Ireland, and the house should pause before it assented to such a stringent and unconstitu tional measure. In the county of Louth Ribbonism was entirely extinct, in consequence of the efforts of the clergy, aided by the pastoral of Archbishop Cullen. The greater portion of the evidence given by the witnesses before the committee on the state of crime in Ireland, as regarded the county of Louth, was a tissue of fables, cal culated to convey a most false and mischievous impression of the state of that county. Mr. LUCAS was astonished at the statement of the right hon. baronet as regarded the return. The proclamations referred to were few of themrecent, some being since 1848, and some antecedent. Since 1850 there was not one, except from the province of Ulster, that was to say subse quent to the famine having passed away. This was a subject worth serious attention. He (Mr. L.) drew the at tention of the right hon. baronet to certain words attri buted to the Irish Attorney-General, at the Monaghan assizes, in which that great law officer of the Crown urged the landlords of that county not to reduce their rents— stating that in a country disturbed by crime the landlord who did so would be an enemy of his country. He (Mr. Lucas) wished to know whether these were also the senti ments of her Majesty's Government, assuming the facts to be as represented. Re (Mr. Lucas) seconded the amend ment. The house then divided— For the second reading l4l Against it 23 Majority The bill was read a second time accordingly. BURIALS (BEYOND METROPOLIS) BILL. . .. . The house went * into committee on this bill. On clause 7 being proposed, Mr. MIALL complained that no provision was made in the bill for interments of deceased persons by dissenting ministers in parishes where there was but one burial ground, and that attached to the parish church, in which those ministers were not allowed to perform the rites ac- cording to their own peculiar religious views. ---- -- Lord PALMERSTON" said the bill was of a purely sani tary character, and was not intended to operate to the ad vantage or disadvantage of any particular sect. Lord J. MANNER said the clause already provided that there should be a piece of unconsecrated ground set apart in every graveyard for the use of dissenters, so that, in fact, the object of the hon. member was fully provided for. The clause was then agreed to, and the bill passed through committee. STAMP DUTIES (No. 2) BILL. The house then went into committee on this bill. On the third clause being read, The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER (in reply to Mr. Newdegate) said that the effect of this clause would be to enlarge the statutory size of the newspaper by one half, leaving it open to the proprietors to make what use they pleased of the enlarged space, provided they did not divide it into more than two sheets. Mr. NEWDEGATE said they were about to make a present of 34,030/. to some six newspapers, at the expense of the smaller and struggling publications. He should therefore move that the clause be omitted. The committee divided— For the clause Against it 4O Majority for the clause —s2 The other clauses were also agreed to, and the bill was reported to the house. The Land Tax Redemption Bill was read a third time and passed. The Newspaper Stamp Duties Bill was read a third time and passed. The Highway Rates Bill was read a third time and passed. TURNPIKE ACTS CONTINUANCE, &c., BILL. This bill was read a third time. On the motion that it do pass, Mr. FREWEN moved the insertion of a clause, to the effect that upon the same trust a second toll should not be paid at any turnpike-gate within two miles of the gate at which the previous toll was paid. Mr. FITZROY opposed the clause. The house divided, and there appeared— For the clause 27 Against it lOl Majority —74 Lord NEWPORT then moved the insertion of a clause prohibiting the use of dogs in drawing, or helping to draw, carts or barrows on turnpike roads, under the penalty of 20s. and costs, or 21 days' imprisonment with hard labour. Mr. 0. GORE supported the clause. Mr. FITZROY opposed it, but expressed a hope that if the clause were adopted by the house the noble lord would consent to mitigate the penalty of hard labour. Mr. FREWEN supported the clause as a means of get ting rid of a moot dangerous nuisance. Lord NEWPORT said he had no objection to omit the words " hard labour," if the Government would consent to the clause in that shape. The house went into committee, and the words " hard labour" having been expunged from the clause, it was agreed to, and read a third time, and the bill passed. The Sheep, &c., Contagious Diseases Prevention Bill was read a third time and passed. The Consolidated Annuities (Ireland) Bill was read a third time and The Betting-houses Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be committed on Thursday next. The Dublin Coinage Bill was committed pro forma, and ordered to be recommitted on Thursday. The Customs, t&c., Duties Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be committed to-morrow (this day). METROPOLITAN BUILDING ACT FURTHER AMENDMENT BILL. Mr. LOCKE moved the postponement of the second reading of this bill until Thursday next. Sir W. MOLESWORTH moved, as an amendment, that it be read a second time that day three months, on the ground that its object was to enable a private indivi dual to set aside the provisions of the Metropolitan Building Act. The amendment was agreed to, and the bill was accord ingly lost. The Encumbered Estates (Ireland) Act Continuance Bill went through committee. The other orders having been disposed of, the house adjourned at half-past three o'clock. The Earl of ANNESLEY and Sir JOHN RAMSDEN have paired for the session. UPPER INDIA RAILWAY.--A - meeting of the scrip holders of this company is to be held on Thursday to re ceive a report from the directors of the terms of amal gamation which have been arranged between the chairman of the company and the chairman of the East India Railway Company. The directors have re solved to appropriate the remaining 23,980 unallotted shares, pro rata, among the scripholders, in order that the whole capital of 4,000,000/. should be subscribed. This sum, added to the 2,000,000/. at present authorised to be raised by the East India Railway Company, and a further sum of 300,000/. required for the works, will make a capital of 6,00,000/. NORTH AND SOUTH-WESTERN JUNCTION RAILWAY.— This short line of railway which runs from the London and North-Western Railway near Willesden, to Kew, and Brentford, and which has hitherto only been worked for goods traffic, is to be opened for passenger traffic on the Ist August next, in connexion with the North London (Dock line) and the Blackwall Railway.

YORK AND NORTH MIDLAND RAILWAY V. GEORGE HUDSON, M.P. , --- - His Honour gave judgment on the reserved point in this case, as to whether the defendant should be decreed to pay interest on 9,0001. which he had received for iron more than he had paid, and which he retained in his hands from 1840 to 1849. His Honour said he was of opinion that plaintiffs might have required interest at the rate of 5 per cent. from the defendant, but as they received his cheque in 1849 without demanding interest, he must consider it as a settled account ; and therefore, so far as respected this demand, the bill must be dis missed. He bad already stated that he should reserve the costs till after the inquiries were made. ALLSOPP AND OTHERS V. FRASER AND ANOTHER.-IM PORTANT DECISION. - THE EAST INDIA PALE ALE INJUNCTION CONTINUED. Mr. Lloyd, Q.C., and Mr. Fisher moved, on the part of the defendant Fraser, who carries on the business of a porter and ale merchant in Thames-street, under the firm of "J. H. Fraser and C 0.," to dissolve an injunc tion granted by his Honour in June last, restraining the defendant from selling a spurious artic'e as Allsopp's celebrated pale ale. The learned counsel stated that the notice of motion was given for the following seal, but it stood over for affidavits. It might be taken as admitted that the ale which had been sold as Allsopp's East India pale ale was, in truth, a very different and an inferior article. It had been sold by Coombes, the other defendant, and not by Fraser, and the latter was not aware that Coombes sold it under the denomination of Allsopp's East India pale ale. It appeared that as to the 168 dozen which formed part of the ale in question, it was already bottled and in Fraser's cellar when it was sold to King, and that after it was sold it was labelled and packed in Fraser's cellars by Coombes. It was also admitted that an in voice was delivered by Coombes to King, the purchaser, in these terms, " Bought of G. Coombes, agent to J. H. Fraser and Co." Fraser, however, stated in his affidavit that he was ignorant of any such invoice hav ing been given until after the bill was filed, and Coombes stated that the only reason for his using Fraser's name was that he himself had no licence, and that without Fraser's knowledge he used his name in order to escape the penalties of selling without a licence, and that in truth he was not the agent of Fraser. Another ground for the present application was that after King had purchased the ale, he himself, through the medium of Coombes, got 20,000 labels printed,lo,ooo of them copies of Bass's labels, and 10,000 copies of Allsopp's ; and he submitted that as that fact was not stated when the mo tion for injunction was made, the court would on that ground alone, in accordance with the usual practice, re• fuse to entertain the injunction. The learned counsel then read the affidavit of Fraser, in which he denied any knowledge that Coombes was selling the ale as Allsopp's ale, and stating that he did not see the bottles when labelled, and that it was usual when a large quantity of ale was sold by an ale merchant to allow the purchasers the use of his cellar for the purpose of labelling and packing. He submitted, therefore, as the continuance of the injunction was injurious to the defendant's char acter, and as the aefendant had no guilty knowledge that the ale was sold as Allsopp's, the injunction should as regarded him be dissolved. Mr. Fisher followed on the same side. His Honour, without hearing Mr. R. Palmer and Mr. Gifford, instructed by Messrs. Amory, Travers, and Smith, who appeared on the other side, said he had seldom met with a case which had given him less embar rassment than he had in refusing this application. The facts of the case as admitted by Fraser himself were, that he had in his cellar a large quantity of damaged ale, which was Prestonpans ale. He was at a loss to under stand for what honest purpose any sale whatever for the purposes of consumption of this ale was to be allowed. The price of it was 3s. a dozen the quart bottle, bottles included. In the absence of evidence, he did not believe that large dealers in ale in this metropolis would allow ale of this description to be sold on their premises. It W 23 admitted that Coombes bought this ale of Fraser, and that Coombes did not buy it for any honest purpose appeared by his own affidavit. According to Coombes's own statement, it was bought for the purpose of being sold at fairs and races. It was true he did not say that in all cases it was labelled as Allsopp's pale ale. His brother took some of it to sell at one race, and a friend took another portion, and brought it back with " Allsopp's pale ale' upon it, on which he made no remark at all. If the court could protect the public against conduct of this description, the court would be willing enough to grant an injunction against any such ale being sold to the public ; but the court had no power, unless it interfered with the rights of individuals. When Mr. King suggested that Coombes should procure for him 200 dozen of this damaged ale, they went to Mr. Fraser's cellar for the purpose of testing it, Mr. Fraser bringing the sample bottle. Mr. Fraser says he went away, and that he kn ew no thi ng a b ou t it. ✓ He knew, however, that King came there for the purpose of making some arrangement for the purchase of the ale, and he (Fraser) agreed to sell Coombes 186 doz. at 3s. a doz. Coombes had no licence, and Fraser allowed a per son of this description, according to his own statement, to sell ale upon his premises. He went into the cellar while the ale was being bottled. He says he did not see the labels, and that he did not read them, though they were manifest enough, and there must have been bottles standing about. The invoice was made out as for ale sold by him, and was delivered to the purchaser in his presence. He said he did not know the contents of the invoices and that they were improperly made out. The cheque was given to him, and crossed with his banker's name, and he paid himself out of it the 3s. a dozen which he charged to Coombes, and handed the difference to Coombes. Upon that state of facts he came here and asked to dissolve this injunction. It ap peared to him that he (Fraser) having given every faci lity to Coombes to carry out this proceeding, that lie could not dissolve the injunction, and the motion must therefore be refused, with costs. Motion refused with costs accordingly. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. MIDLAND CIRCUIT.—LEICESTER, JULY 25. LA MERT V. DAWSON AND ANOTHER. This was an action for libel. Mr. Macaulay, Q.C., Mr. Mellor, Q.C., Mr. Sergeant Miller, and Mr. Hayes were for the plaintiff; Mr. Field and Mr. Brewer were for the defence. The action arose out of the following circumstances : The plaintiff was educated for the surgical profession, but has never taken out his diploma, contenting himself years back with purchasing the business of a chemist in the eastern part of London, where he obtained consider able practice in the treatment of those diseases popularly known as "secret." He subsequently removed to Albe marle-street, Piccadilly, where, under the name of Curtis, he continued to be very generally consulted, he having extensively advertised himself and his works under the name of Curtis, particularly a work called " Manhood." The defendant, Mr. Dawson, is a regularly admitted surgeon practising in Lomita', and is the author of a scientific work on a particular class of complaints, and in that book was contained the alleged libel, which was to the effect that he (Mr. Dawson) had been repeatedly consulted by patients who complained of having paid the advertising quack large sums of money, and that he had at the time of publication a gentleman under his care, who had been sent to him by a medical man in London, and who " was proceeding against Curtis (meaning the plaintiff), the author of 1€ Manhood,' for a similar fraud. ' The article then went on to charge the obtaining money by means of fraudulent representations as to curing the parties. The pleaofjustification was put upon the record. The jury found a verdict for the plaintiff, with a farthing damages, thus negativing the pleas, and leaving each party to pay their own costs. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE. CUSTOM-HOUSE, JULY 25.

Being of the stone colour as the skin, it is not perceptible ; it enables deaf persons to hear distinctly at church and at public as semblies ; the unpleasant sensation of singing noises in the ears is entirely removed ; and it affords all the assist ance that possibly could be desired.—S. and B.
