He would not go further into the subject, but he wished to declare, on the first legitimate occasion •that C3:110 be fors the house, his Opinion that the war with Persia, was just, and ti , at we had been Contending not with :Persia, but with Russia. - The Earl of CLARENDON coati not allow the at tack of the noble earl on Mr. Murray to pass withoutan observation. The noble earl said that the war had been caused by the - unfitness of Mr. Murray for his office, and the grounds of the charge were that he had no experience and no influence, and was unfit to deal with Orients. But it - Was on account of the experience which Mr. Mur ray bad had of Oriental - 4, and his success in deafing with them, that he was appointed. He had been six years in Egypt, and bad given great satisfactionto those by whom he had been employed. He was an admirable' Arabic scholar, and within a short time of his arrival at Tehe- • ran he conducted his. Conversation with the natives in. 'their own language. He was appointed therefore on the ' very ground, on which the noble earl says such, an official ought to be serected. • The -Earl- f ALBEMARLE,passing from the subject of ths Persian war, wished to say a few words on the subject of the financial condition of India. He expressed his disapprobation-of the financial blundering of the late Governor-General, and adduced a number of calculations by which he showed that the deficiency of the revenue of India had increased' under the rule of that noble lord, and that rkotwithi,tanding his boast that the annexations pf territory he had made had tended to lessen it. And the state of the credaloithe Indian empire was shown by the fact that the 4 and' .1 per cent. loans were at I con siderable discount. The motion was then agreed to. The Income Tax Bill and the Indemnity Bill were se verally brought up, and read a fiat time. The house adjourned at 20 minutes to seven. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—(YESTERDAY.) The SPEAKER took the Chair at 4 o'clock. PRIVATE BILLS. The South Devon Railway Bill was real a third time and passed. The rirtland Harbour Bill was read a second time and ordered to be committed.

ECCLESIASTICAL AND CAPITULAR ESTATES Mr. MACGREGOR asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he would place the proposed Ecclesiastical and Capitular Estates Bill of the Government on the table, for the purpose of being painted and circulated. Sir G. GREY said that it would be impossible to lay the bill on the table of the house this session. THE BARNSLEY COLLIERY EXPLOSION. In answer to a question from Mr. CAYLEY, Sir G. GREY said that he was unable to give any information relative to this unfortunate accident be yond what the public were in possession of, and for the reason that the pit had been closed under the advice of persons of the greatest experience in these matters, and which was the only means that could be adopted under the circumstances. Until the pit was opened and exa mined it would be impossible for him to give the house any information on the melancholy subject. He had taken care that the fullest investigation should be made into the circumstances. INDUSTRIAL SCHOOLS. On .the motion of Sir W. HEATUCOTE, for Sir S. Nortbcote, the promoter of the bill, the order of the day for going into committee on the Industrial Schools B►ll was read and discharged. THE FOUNDLING HOSPITAL. Viscount RAYNHAM asked the Attorney-General whether the attention of the Charity Commissioners bad been directed to the complicated state of the finances of the Foundling Hospital, and to the. effects of the exist ence of that institution ? The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said that the Charity Commissioners were prosecuting a vigorous inquiry into the finances and all the circumstances connected with the management of this charity. The report was not quite ready, but he expected shortly to receive it from ".he Commissioners. SPIRITS AND MALT.

Agreed to. CASUAL POOR. Viscount RAYNIIA.III asked the President of the Poor-law Board whether casual poor were admitted on application into the workhouse of St. George's, Hano ver-square ; and, if so, for what purpose a notice was affixed to the walls of that workhouse, stating that on and after the 7th of July, 1856, the tramp wards of that hoosa would he closed Mi. BOUVERIE said that it was true such a notice had been put up, but that casual poor were admitted, such as those taken there by the police, or the master considered destitute. No regular tramps were ad mitted, and since the notice had been posted up none had applied for admission. SMITHFIELD MARKET. Lord R. GROSVENOR asked the First Minister whether ho was able to give an assurance that the influ ence of the Government would be used to prevent the appropriation of the vacant site of Smithfield Market to any other purpose than that of the enjoyment and recrea tion of the public I _ _ _ The CHANCELLOR cf the EXCHEQUER, in re ply to the question, repeated his answer given last night to a similar question, and added that he had received a communication from the city authorities stating that the corporation would next week make a communication to the Government relative to the appropriation of this site. He could not give an answer to the question until after . that communication h a d b een received by the Govern ment. DANISH TRANSIT DUES. Mr. G. DUNDAS asked the Chancellor of the Ex chequer, with reference to the statement made by him that f air-fifths of the Dania . Transit Dues were to be abolished, if he had consi ;,_re I the expediency, before any treaty was signed, of stipulating for the abolition of the remaining fifth also ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that the subject bad been carefully negotiated by the Minister of Copenhagen and the other Powers interested in the remission of these dues, and whose views were embodied in the treaty about to be signed. That treaty had given satisfaction to all the Powers more directly in terested in the transit of goods through Denmark. He believed that by this time the treaty was signed. CIVIL SERVICE FUND. Mr. WILLCOX a•lted the Chancellor of the Exche quer, he having expresso i in the house his hopes that. the Report of the Royili Commissioners upon the Civil Service Superannuation Ac: would be laid upon the table before Easter, whether he bad intimated to them his x pectations upon this point ; anel, if not, whether he wit: do so, reminding them at the same time that they had had this questi.,n in charge ever since October. 1856/ The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER bail it woull not be proper for him to give instructions to the Commissioners when they should make their report. He understood from them that the report would he ready before Ester. A. In reply to some obsPerEßvati ones of Srl A.

APPOINTMENT OF LORD ELGIN AS PLENIPOTENTIARY TO CHINA. (From the Times ) The Earl of Elgin has accepted the office of Plenipoten tiary to the Court of Pekin, and will proceed on his ardu ous mission as soon as he has been made sufficiently acquainted with the views of her Majesty's Government. It would not be easy to name a more unexceptionable man for the office, or even one with so many positive recommen dations. Lord Elgin performed with admirable tact and entire success the task of conducting Canada from govern ment by cliques and Imperial influences to that system of self-government which has rendered the pros inces of British America an honour, and even a support, to the British Throne, instead o f a scan d a l an d a th orn in our side. He also successfully negotiated the treaty for reciprocity of trade between British America and the United States. Of course, there were those who opposed both these processes, and therefore did not like the agent employed ; but they are now a minority, if not converts to the system which he helped to inaugurate. Lord Elgin is a man of great indus try, patience, and forbearance, with ready powers of ex pression, and a great desire to accommodate himself to the habits of those with whom he has to deal. So well did he discharge the delicate, and, as some thought, impossible task, of turning Canadian rebels into British Royalists without any sacrifice of Imperial dignity, that hie popu larity extended even across the frontier, and ovations were offered him by the citizens of the adjacent States. He will not be objected to, therefore, by these who apprehended that we were going to carry matters with a high hand over the silly barbarians to whom he is now accredited. It is almost superfluous, however, to insist on his qualification when not a single objection has been alleged against him, though his name has been whispered about for the appointment from the very day that it was an nounced. Other names, indeed, have been thought of, either for their higher rank or their diplomatic reputation, but not one for which so much could be said, and against which so little could even be alleged. This becomes a matter of serious importance when it is considered that not only are two empires, the wide world apart, and as different as day and night, to be reconciled, but factions at home almost as discordant and hostile to be won into concurrence. It is not to be supposed that because politicians speak as if Lon don streets were full of competent men therefore they would be satisfied with anybody ; on the contrary, it is from this glib and easy quarter that we are the most likely to find any actual choice denounced and vituperated the moment it is made. In Lord Elgin, then, we have a man for whom the opinions of most men are already engaged, and, though that does not secure him from criticism, it must help to absolve those with whom rests the responsi bility of the choice. We apprehend, however, that Lord Elgin's instructions will be so few and plain that he will scarcely have much opportunity of going wrong. Of cour se , a f ter the failure of the Emperor of Chin a to enforce the observance of the former treaty on the refractory and almost independent Cantonese, and after the consequent rupture we have now to deplore, it will be necessary to demand fuller means of communication with the officials and population of China, and that the engagement shall on no account be evaded or postponed. Whatever demands are made will be in the interest of all nations, and very much, as we firmly believe, in the interest of the Chinese themselves. For our part, we do not believe that any part of this earth was made for the exclusive use and enjoyment of any one particular race. In point of fact, millions of the Chinese cannot live without us and the use we make of our share of the earth's surface, and as little can we do without them and the hill slopes they cover with the fragrant and restora tive tea plant. We allow the Chinese to enter our colonies and our great commercial ports, to share our commerce and divide o ur go ld fields. They have the free range of every town, village, street, or road in the British dominious. It is only a matter of convenience whether we insist on a reciprocity of communication to this extent through the territory of China. But we beg to observe very emphatically —and we press it on the notice of all whom it may concern—that since it is a matter of necessity for us to give the Chinese something for their silk and tea, and no trade on earth can be carried on for ever on the condition of money and money only for goods —and since out of this necessity has arisen that irregular traffic in opium which the more narrow-minded philan thropists—that is, about ninety-nine out of a hundred of them—are always laying to the charge of England—not only our interest, but our reputation and humanity itself, demand that we should have every opportunity of substi tuting some other merchandise than opium. It has been said, indeed, that the Chinese have so few wants, and that labour is so cheap there, that we can never hope to bring our manufactures into competition with theirs, even if it were humane to drive their labour out of the field. As the same objections have been made to every step in the economy or labour, the extension of trade, and the com mercial intercourse of nations everywhere and in every age, we set them down at their proper worth. For our part, then, we admit no limit to what we may demand from these whimsical, subtle, and faithless barbarians, so long as our demands are regulated by equity and in the interest of all nations. What it may at this moment be convenient to demand is another affair, and one which we presume may be left to her Majesty's advisers. No doubt, any demands whatever which may be thought an adequate result, for a great expedition sent across the globe will be unpalatable to the barbaric pride or politic jealousy of the Chinese Government.

When the Commander-in-Chief— General Pennefather— has made the proper dispositions, and is ready for an advance, the British Plenip o t en ti ary will, we suppose, i nv it e the Emperor to a peaceful settle ment of affairs, and under the present deplorable circum stances of the Chinese Governmeneit is not likely that our chief difficulty will be in that quarter. It has, indeed, been insinuated that we ought not to have taken advan tage of an hour of distress and perplexity to press our claims • but it is the impe r i a l cr i s i s it se lf wh i ch has brought on the rupture, Commissioner Yeh having notori ously presumed for a long period on his security from im perial control. The Plenipotentiary will have to deal, then, not only with the Emperor and his mandarins, but with his insolent viceroys, and with a rebellion almost every where victorious. It is likely enough, therefore, that cir cumstances will arise which may require great discretion, temper, and even courage. Lord Elgin, however, must have counted the cost, and can form some estimate from the experience of his colonial task. Should he meet with success his will be a singular lot and a unique glory in achieving two great works of conciliation so wide apart and under such various circumstances. METROPOLITAN BOARD OF ;YORKS. The ordinary meeting of the Metropolitan Board of Works was hold yesterday in the Council Chamber, Guild hall ; Mr. J. ihwaites in the chair. The financial statement showed a total general balance of 75,341/. lh. IMPORTANT APPROACHES AND NEW STREETS IN THE VICTORIA PARK -ROAD. A deputation attended the Board from the vestry of Mile-end Old-town, and the Board of Works for the Lime house district., tr . ) submit plans and estimates for the forma tion of the Victoria Park-road approaches. The deputa tion was introduced by Mr. Snow, and consisted of the following gentlemen :—Messrs. Attrell, Bird, Moody, Lea therdale, Philpot (clerk), and Lemon (surveyor). The deputation presented the followini memorial " The memorial of the ratepayers and owners of property iu the hamlet of Ratcliffe and the parishes of St. Anne, Lime house, and St. Paul, Shadwell, i n th e coun t y o f Middl esex, showeth— " That a direct communication between the Commercial road-east, the Mile-end-road, and the Victoria-park would be highly advantageous to the hamlet of Ratcliffe and the parishes of St. Anne, St. George-in-the-east, St. Paul, Shadwell, and St. John, of Wapping, containing together a population of 100,000 persons. "That your memorialists have ascertained with feelings of the most lively satisfaction that it is intended to form a new line of streets from the Stepney station of the 131ackwall, North Loudon, North Woolwich, Gravesend, and Southend Railway to the Mile-end-road and the Victoria-park. " That the increased and increasing traffic between the wharfs of Wapping, Shadwoll, and Ratcliffe, and the Mile end-road imperatively demands a new and direct line of tho roughfare. " That your memorialists have ascertained that a new street from the Stepney station to the Mile-end-read and Victoria-park could be constructed at au expense of 12,000/. " That your memorialists have been informed that another new street, from the East India-road to the Mile-end-road and Victoria Park, has been projected, and a plan of the same prepared, and that the estimated expense is 38,0001., being 26,000/. more than the estimated cost of the new street from the Stepney station. " That your memorialists are informed and believe that a now street from the East India-road to the Mile-end-road and the Victoria Park could not be constructed for less than 60,000/., and that if the plan was approved of it would be necessary to purchase a rope-ground and compensate the owner tliereaf for the loss of his business, which would in volve an outlay of 20,000/. That a new street from the East India-road to the Mile-end-road and Victoria Park would be of uo use or benefit to your memorialists, inasmuch as the terminus of the same is at least half a mile from the eastern boundary of the hamlet of Ratcliffe, and a much greater dis tance from the densely populated parishes of St. George, St. John of Wapping, and Shadwell. " That your memorialists respectfully submit that the new line of street projected from the Stepney station to the Mile end-road and Victoria Park could be constructed at one third of the expense of a new street from the East India-road, and possess manifold advantages, both as regards economy and public utility, ever every other plan. " Your memorialists, therefore, humbly solicit the Metro politan Board of Works to withhold their sanction to the pro jected street, commencing in the East India-road, and to ap prove of the plans for making a new street—one from the Stepney station, in the hamlet of Ratcliffe, to the Victoria Park and Mile-end-road, and from High-street, Stepney, to the Globe-road." Thin memorial was very numerously signed. Mr. ATTRELL (one of the deputation) strongly enforced the views of the memorialists, and said, that at a meeting held upon the subject the freeholders had offered voltin tarily;to give up the ground for the formation of the Globe road, which would give great additional accommodation to a densely populated district of not less than 100,000 persons. Mr. SKILLET, a member of the Limehouse Board, sup ported the plan as originally submitted by Lord Dungan non to the House of Commons. Mr. SNOW moved, that the memorial and plan now brought up be referred to the Committee of Works and Imps oveinents. Mr. CRELLIN seconded the motion, which was put and ' carried unanimously. The tender for the reinstatement of the buildings of the United Service Museum, in Middle Scotland-yard, was gained by Messrs. Piper and Sons for 7341. A number of compensation cases for loss of office, in con sequence of the passingthe Court C of ur t t he for Metropolis seyeral L hoursc a I ; but tManage mentle Act, occupied details were unworthy of re p ort. The Board then adjourned. o in Persia that Russia had made peace, we should soon come to a more satisfactory condition of things. • It was only . when Persia showed a disposition to attack and take possession of Herat that we, althonsh we had no diplomatic relations with the Court of Teheran, made a direct communication to the Persian Government, and asked that Government to desist in carrying uut their intentions with regard to Herat; and that. there might be no doubt as to the intentions of lier Maje-ty's Govern ment, I read to your lordships a letter addressed by us to the Persian Government, and their reply. It cannot therefore be said that your lordships were entirely igno rant of the causes of war, for if the w h o l e o f the papers had been laid on the table they could not have more dis tinctly stated the causes ,of the war, the wrong done by the Persian Government, and the course which it was incumbent on us to pursue, in case they dil not listen to our remonstrances. A letter was addressed to me by the Persian minister, avoiding ,the subject of Herat, in which it was said that an ambassador was going on a com plimentary mission to Paris, and he woull be instructed to enter into communication with us. We accordingly gave instructions to Lord Cowley to enter into cononu theation with Ferukh Kban and to ascertain what his instructions were. I should say that the negotiations which were first begun at Constantinople were not broken off by us. We communicated to the Persian ambassador the terms on which we were prepared to negotiate, and he asked if we would wait till he had communicated with his own court, and whether we could suspend hostilities during the progress of the negotiations. .It was impos sible then to suspend hostilities, and Herat fell ; and the Persian ambassador then said that the negotiations must come to an end, and that he must go on to Paris. Our ambassador at Paris did not at once enter into com munication with Ferukh Khan, but in a few days, the Persian ambassador earnestly solicited an interview with Lord Cowley, and stated that he had full powers to ne gotiate. As we had no desire to continue hostilities with Persia, Lord Cowley was desired to listen to the propo sals of Ferukh Khan, and when the negotiations 'had begun in that way, we thought it would be mischievous to lay before Parliament papers which would lead to die _ _ eusscone, which would, without doubt, put au end to the negotiations. Why my noble friend said that he does not know whether the Persian ambassador had full powers to negotiate or not, he forgot the answer I gave to a ques tion of his the other night, when I said that before we entered into negotiations wo had examined into the am bassadors powers, and found them ample to enable him to enter into a treaty of peace. That treaty was con cluded a few days ago, and it would not be proper to lay it before your lordships before it is ratified ; but I have no hesitation in informing your lordships Ex actly what its terms are. (Hear.) By the terms of the treaty, the Persian troops and authorities are all to be withdrawn from Herat and Affghanistan within three months after the exchange of ratifications of the treaty. The Shah of Persia relinquishes all claim on Herat, or any territory in Affghanistan, and engages to abstain from all interference in the affairs of Affghanistan ; he recog nises the independence of Affghanistan and of Herat, and agrees, that in the eve n t o f any difference arising be tween Persia and Affghanistan, the Persian Government will resort to the good offices of England ; and England on her part engages to use her best efforts to tring those differences to a satisfactory settlement. Although it may at times be necessary for Persia to repel aggression from Affghanistan, yet she engages not to enter into hos tilities with that country for any other object, and as soon as satisfaction is obtained in such a case she is to withdraw her troops. With regard to our commercial treaties with Persia, which were not in a satisfactory state, it is now stipulated that in all commercial rela tions England shall be placed by Persia on-.-the footing of the most favoured nations. It is also stipulated that Mr. Murray shall return to Teheran, and that he shall be recei ve d w ith cer t a i n ceremonial ohsza v maces. There is another provision in the treaty which will go far to put an end to one of the most fertile sources of difference, not alone with Persia, but in the East generally, and that is the protection of the subjects of Persia, employed by England and other foreign powers. (Hear, hear.) The Earl of DERBY was understood to make some allusion to the case of Hasbeem.. The Earl of CLARENDON—r must once more deny that Hasheem was a Persian subject. (A. laugh.) This - system has been a constant subject of quarrel in Persia and the East, and I took the liberty, when the subject e f the treaty between Turkey and Russia was before the Congress at Peri., of bringing that question before the representatives of the different Powers, by whom it was well received, and they all undertook to promote a re view of the present system of native protected subjects. We have engaged no longer to protect any subject of the Shah, except those actually in theaervice of the missions and consuls ;',of course, on conditiot that all other powers agree to adopt the same course. In every respect Eng land is to be plassidr in the same position in Persia as the most favoured nations, and I have De MYtYjea p whICTI 'Will do - &ors -- i - rth'is•aEyrilog to prevent differences between Persia and foreign powers. With regard to the slave trade in the Persian Gulf, there is a treaty which will expire in 188.1, but Persia has- en gaged to prolong it for ten years more after the expira tion of the time at which it was originally fixed. It is stipulated that hostilities shall cease on the ratification of the treaty, and that our troops shall be withdrawn from Persia, and the Persian troops are to be withdrawn from Herat. Ferukh Khan has sent letters to the autho rities at the seat of war, proposng that an armistice shall be entered into, and we have sent similar instruc tions to our commanding officers. I do not think that I have omitted to state anything ci importance which is provided for by the treaty, and I think your lordships will agree that by the treaty we have obtained everything which is of importance to us to have obtained. (Hear.) We have obtained an engagement ;or the withdrawal of the Persian troops from Affghanis;an ; we have secured the independence of Herat.and Afghanistan ; we have made stipulations to prevent futtre quarrels between Persia, and Herat, and Affghanistsn, as far as it is pos sible, and we obtained their establishment as neutral territory. There is nothing in the treaty derogatory to the honour of Persia, and if it is carried out in its spirit it will lead to satisfactory relations between Persia and this country. " - The Earl of MALMESBURY was understood to in quire if there was any stipulation ler the establishment of coaling stations for English ships is the Gulf of Persia. The Earl of CLA.RENDON—Ifot in this treaty. The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH regretted' that it was not possible to place tae papers relating to the Per sian war before the house ; but at Ihe same time it would be uncandid in him if he did not at once admit that, looking to the proclamation of the government of India, and assuming the facts stated in that proclamation to be correct, he thought the government of India was per fectly justified in entering into hostile operations against Persia ; and more, that even if there had been no treaty like that which had been infringed, it would have been, in his opinion, the bounden duty of the government of India to resort to hostilities to prevent the occupation of Herat by Persia ; for it was as much the interest of India to main tain Herat in the hands of an independent power, as it was to the interest of the western powers to maintain the Bosphorus in the hands of an independent power. It was essential that that gate of our Indian empire should be in the hands of those whom we could trust. But, at the same time, he did not think that this had been really a quar rel between this country and Persia the r.:al quarrel had been not with Persia as an independent power, but with Russia, under whose dictation Persia had acted. Not oily were the operations against Herat carried on during the war with Russia, when they were calculated to act as a diversion, but they were carried on after the war with Russia had ceased, and be took the treaty as comple mental to the treaty of Paris, and as showing that Rus sia for the present adjourned her designs on India ; that she had reconsidered her position and bad found that her' interests demanded that there should be a good under standing between her and England in Europe, which could never come to pass so long as she was carrying on operations in the direction of India; which must be ob jectionable to England. He founded his opinions of the policy of Russia towards India on her patent acts, by her march to Keiva, and her advance so far towards Bok hare. He concluded from all her acts that she enter tained designs on India, for no state could do what she had done in that direc ion without having ultimate ob jects in view. He could not now orat any other time discuss the probability of the success of Russia in such designs. It was not expedient to de so. But he could say that we exposed ourselves to imminent danger if we considered the advance of an army directed by Russians to India an impossibility. Unless we took care to place in India the ablest men at the bead of the di - mutton of our military power; if we imagined that we could send any man to command our armies there ; that we could commit the command of our armies tea gentleman who, however respectable in civil life, was not essentially a soldier, if we did that we incurred imminent danger, for it was only by meant; of the first ability en our part that the ability with which the Russian troops would be di rected that they could be met. They heard much of the improvement of India, of canals and railroads, but de pend upon it it was not on any of those civil improve- ments that we should find the ultimate security of that empire. It had been founded by tie savor 4 , and by the sword it must be maietaioed. It was only by means of a well-disciplined and well-comnianded army that the empire could be saved to us. When he looked back t o the events of the last few months, he looked with dismay on our prospects in the Ea , t, if the sort of administration which had hitherte prevailed was to be the basis of our po icy. We had bad two wars, one with China, and one with Persia, and both were owing bad appoint ments with the representatives of England. No one could doubt that Dr. Bowring was thesanse of the war with China. He could not say that Mr. Murray was the cause of the war with Persia, but it was certain that he had added to our difficulties with that country. Ho re collected how the influence of such men as Sir J. Mal. who and Sir J. Macdonald operated in Persia ; so lone' as they were at Teheran everything went wt U. Then no thing was wanted from Russia, for all Persia felt that England was her friend, and fat tile() that . Russia was her enemy. Apy man of ability should be able to ava 1 himself of those natural advautagee , audobtain in Persia a due influence for this country. He did not say that Mr. Murray was not a man of ability, but talent which was adapted to England was a very dire ent thi ng t o th at which was required to manage Orientals. All the lute rest that Orientals took in Europeans was personal, and IMPERIAL PAR LIAMEN T, HOUSE OF LORDS.—(YESTERDAY.) The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at 5 o'clock. Lord ST. L EONTAR DS said he had given notice of his intention to call the attention of their lordships to the Turner collection of pictures, bat .he had not named a day on which he would bring•forward his motion.. He now begged•to inform the house that it was his intention to bring it . forward on Monday next. LAW OF LIBEL. Lord CAMPBELL said that being unexpectedly enabled to attend their lordships' house to-day he begged to give notice that on 'account of the approach ing dissolution of Parliament it was not his intention of proceeding furth er thi s sess i on w ith th e se l ec t com mittee that had b een appointed b y t h e i r l or d s hi ps t o con sider how fa r th e pr i v i lege of giving publicity to the pro ceediugs of th e courts of law m i ght b e exten d e d to t h e proceedings i n P ar li ament and other assem bli es. How ever, lininediately upon the re-assembling of the new Parliament it was his intention to move that the select committee be re-appoi n t e d. Ile did not suppose that their lordships would bethought to give immunity to the publication of everyt hi ng that * night be spoken at every public meeting. H e b el i eved suc h a proceeding would be inconsistent with public safety, and destructive of public character. He, however, still hoped that the grievances of which journalists complained of would be, to a certain degree, am e li o rated. There were, how ever, certain publications whi he thought might be placed on the same footi ng as publications of the pro ceedings of the law courts. It was possible that such a definition might be given to the law of publication as would enable the privilege to be generally applied. The present state of the law was greatly mitigated by the fact that juries only give nominal damages in certain cases. Very recently if an action of libel were taken, and a far thing damages were returned, full costs were given, which enc)uraged pettifogging actions to be brought for the sake of costs. At present, unless substantial damages were given, no costs were allowed. In actions arising from libellous publications the law might be fram ed so that if no real injury had been sustained the costs of the action should fall upon the party bringing the action. Also that if only nomi na l d amages were given, power might be given to the judge to order not only that no costs be paid to the plaintiff, but the mightplain tiff parties. These e o ub sb subject, however y payj ud get! eo the costs of id be referred to the select committee. For the p urpose of expediting the proceedings of the committee, h e would also move b ti o ff t h pa r that the standing order be suspended which required the oath to be administered to witnesses at the bar of the house. It would be much more convenient that the select committee should have the power of admin istering the oath to the witnesses. Lori MONTEAGLE concurre 1 in the latter observa tion of the honourable and learned lord, and sug- gested that a select committee of the house should have the same power and privileges, in respect t 3 sum moning and sw, acing witnesses as the committees of the other house of Parliament, The LORD CHANCELLOR doubted much whe ther the present system of swearing witnesses at the bar of the house could be altered without an Act of Patna meet. • AFFAIRS OF THE COUNTRY. The Earl of DERBY said that, having been informed that the second reading of the Income Tax would be taken on Monday, he hoped the noble lord (Albe marl •), who had a motion on the pap er for that day, would postpone it in order to afford him an opportunity of bringing forward the motion of which he had given notice. The Earl of ALBEiSIARLE said he would postpone his motion until Friday. THE WAR WITH PERSIA. The Marquis of CLANRICARDE moved for copies of any correspondence that may have taken place between the Court of Directors and the Board of Control, or be tween the Board of Control and the Treasury, respecting the proportion of the cost of the *fir with Persia to be charged upon the Indian revenue, or relating to the ways and means by which provision for such expenditure is to be made in India. The noble marquis said it ap peared to him that the finances of India were in a most unsatidactoty state. It had been intimated that one-half the expenses of the late war with Persia were to be de frayed by the Government of India, and the Court of Directors appeared to be well satisfied with that arrange. ment ; hut it did not appear what portion of the re sources of that country were available for carrying on any war, or in what manner the necessary funds were to be raised. Was it intended that the Indian finances were to go on as usual, and was no attempt to be made to bring them into regular order? There had been a constant deficieney for several years, and it was most desirable,to anestalab,qyz the war charges were to ihere • was a debt of more than 7,0(0,0001, and the ques tion for coLsithration was the state of the credit of the Indian Government. Their financial operations bad struck a blow at public credit, and had produced the most in convenient results. When they attempted to raise a loan of 2,000,000/ , at 4 per cent., only one-tenth of the amount was obtained. In the 5 per cent. ban very small progress had been made, and not much could be expected, seeing that parties might obtain a guarantee oq Indian railways of 5 per cent., besides the chance of additional profits. He trusted the papers for which he moved would be produced, to ge th er w i th the estimate t o which they referred. The Earl of MALMESBURY thought it was of the greatest importance, irs the present state of public affairs, that th e coun t ry should at l as t k now some thing about th e P ers i an war; w hich up to this time had been a sor t o f myt h , for all i n f orma tion on the subject had b een re f use d b y the Governmen t. The coun try knew nothing of the original quarrel, of the negotia tions, aif the answers of the Persian Government to the appesls of her Majesty's Government, of the orders given to the troops, and the preparations for carrying on the war when war was declared in a very unsatis factory and irregular wanter. Something was known of the operations at Bushire, but after that nothing was known exospt through the medium of the public journals and that our ambassador with th e P ers i an a mbassador, —viz., th a t nego ti at i ons h a d b een carr ied on at Paris by a treaty had b een s i gne d . The noble lord at the head of the Government was accustensed to treit men and things very coolly, and had made no except ea in this case with respect to the houses of Parliament. If the noble lord had not confidence in the decision of their lordships he gave himself confidence, and declared the house was at issue with the country. If the house was not in a Batis ta _tory state, accordieg to the noble lord's opinion, he dissolved it. The noble lord might perhaps consider he was within the four corners of the constitution. But he (the Earl of Maltnesbury) was not satisfied that such was the case when he considered the manner iu which the Government had begun, continued, arid ended the Per sian war, without aff riding any explanation to Parlia ment,and without producing a single paperconnected with the war. He did not see why an account of the causes of the war arid of the efforts made to prevent the war should not have been laid on the table, whether the war was going on or not, or was about to be concluded by treaty. He should like to know what chance there was of getting any history of the war within a reasonable time. On the re-assembling of Parliament the subject would be as stale as the wars of the RoESS. The war appeared to be a private war with Persia, of which the country had had no notice whatever. At the end of 1852, when the Government of his noble friend (fe: rd Derby) went out, Herat was in the possession of the Persians, and that Government did all they could to persuade them to re tire. He did not know when or how, or for what reason they retired. Nothing was known of any treaty, and now that the war had been going on for 7 or 8 months, and negotiations had been in progress, and there had been a battle and a victory, a treaty of peace had been signed at Paris, and there had not been a particle of in formation afforded by her Majesty's Government. That morning, for the first time, an apparently official docu ment had come before them. His noble friend shook his head ; and therefore it would seem that the last hope of getting any information was gone. Well, an influential newspaper had given an account not only of the treaty which had been negotiated, but of one which ought to have been signed at Constantinople. He would not press this matter further, but would ask his noble friend whether, considering the circumstances in which the country was placed, it would not be right, proper, and decent, to give some information on the subject of the war, arid to give, at least, a sketch of the causes of the war, and of the treaty which had been signed. The Duke of ARGYLL said, before his noble ;friend the Secretary for Foreign Affairs addressed their lord ships, he hoped he might be alio wed to answer the question of the noble Marquis (Clanricarde). There was no objection to the production of the papers he asked for, and he was sure the noble lord would not consider it disrespectful if he did not follow him into the large question of Indian finance. With regard to tke estimate which was asked for it would be improper to produce it till the treaty with Persi a was ratified ; be sides which it would be useless, as it had been made for l a year._ 'The Earl of CLARENDON said—My lords, I cannot regret that my noble frienn opposite has put to me the question he has been so good as to ask ; for I can assure my noble friend and your lordships that it has been a matter of great regret to me that a sense o f public duty has compelled her Majesty's Government to withhold .dy had a ri g ht to expec t . No thinguty prevent e d our l a yi n g the information with respect to the P ers i an war, wh i c h Par , the country of iourti papers relating to that subject bef ore P ar li ament. B u t my noble friend is not correct wh en h e says t h at no in formation has been given with r egar d to t h e can=es of iiam enthu andt a the war. I felt it to be so necess ary no t t o l ose an y time in iving information on that su bj ect to P ar li amen t, that en the first night of to e ses -i on, in replying to the speech of my noble friend opp os i te, I alluded to the quar rel between the Persian Gov ernment and Mr. Murray, whic4 I stated had been set aside, an d was no t one o f the causes of the war. I said that although Mr. Murray had been compelled to leave Teheran, arid that some incon venience bad been caused by the su s p ens i on o f di p l oma tic relations, yet that we did not c ons id er t h at matter as a cause for war with Persia. We knew that the conduct or: Persia was ... -ne of the consequences of the war with Rue sia, end a, e knew that, as soon as it was fully understood //.2 ~~~lz~ ~<. NEWSPAPER t 's iZ 1 ing on the subject. He should . . 1 .•! .0- .9... 11..2J, • bees example' by stating anyttingn rwerd the treaty, but with reference to the t innee nce that: had arisen from the practice that prevailed in Persia, under which'foreign missions were entitled by Prescription, to exercise protection over Persian subjects now actually employed in the British service. It vi t a% most desirable for the permanence of friendly,ielations with Persia: ` that the practice shonid - be disoontinueei and that the Government would- be happy to. renounce, all protection in conjunction with-other friendly powers with Persia. Mr. LAYARD said be ooncerred 4h *bat had fallen from the noble lord with reference bo thie protection: HI asked the noble lord whether the terms that had been. accepted at Pa!is were not similar to 'those Offered a t Constantinople last year, and whether, in fact, Persia was willing to give more then than she now bad at Paris. Lord PALMERSTON - said that . tbe treaty concluded • at Paris was better than anything they were likelyfo ob tain by the Constantinople negotiations.' The negotia tions at Constantinople were not'broken off by the Eng lish ainbas:ador there, but by Perak Khan:. Atm, In reply to a question froth' Sir IL WILLOUGHBY, Mr. LAIIOUCHERE said that by the laat.aceousts from 'China tranquillity prevailed in all the northern ports of China. s _ , PETITIONS -AGAIN' ST ME MBERS. Mr. VANCE called attention to the annoyance ex perienced at the last general tlection by the Irish neMbers from the wholesale petitions that were pre- Beate& against the Irish Conservative members, - and asked theGoyernwont to interfere to prevent its recur rence. The motion for theladjournment of the house till Mon. pay was withdrawn. THE SPEAKER'S PENSION. The house then went into committee •of supply to con eider her Majesty's answer to the address presented to her relative to the retirement of the - Speaker ; Lurd Mouck in the chair. Lord PALMERSTON said that he had to propose a motion to the house to give effect to her Majesty's gra dons message ralative4e the retirement of Mr. Speaker, and be -had. to- • propose that an annuity of 4,0001. per an Mina (dasera) , bbr e ,greated to. her Majesty with which to pension MV - Sp'eatiei on' life retirement from the chair, and that the same should take effect from that period. (Cheers.) The resolution was carried unanimously, and the house resumed. ARMY t STIMATES. On bringing up the report of the committee of sup. ply on the army estimates, Mr. BTAFFO RD called attention to the present state of the Army Medical Department, and stated that the report of his committee in reference to it, which sat last session, had not been carried out. Mr. PEEL defended the conduct of the Government in reference-to-this department. Sir W. WILLIAMS, of Kars, bore testimony to the admiral state of Woolwich Hospital. Miss Nightingale had recently visited it, and expressed her admiration of its efficiency. TRANSPORT OF TROOPS. Sir DE LACY EVINS called attention to the state of the tranKporte engaged to convey troops to China. , Admiral BERKELEY said that every care had been taken to procure efficient ships. THE MEGARA. Sir J. PAKINGTON inquired of the Under Secre tary of War if it was the intention of the Government to give compensation to the officers who had received in jury from the leakage of the Megatra ? Mr. F. PEEL said he was unable to answer the ques tion. Sir J. PAKINGTON gave notice that he would re new his question on a future day. PROFESSORSHIP OF MILITARY SURGERY IN THE UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH. Mr. COWAN attired the Under• Secretary for War if the Government intend to fill up the Professorship of Military Surgery in the University of Edinburgh, which had become vacant by the death of Sir George Ballingall about the end of the year 1855. Mr. PEEL said that it was the intention of the Go vernment to appoint a successor to Sir George Bailin gall. The arrangements would be completed in a few days. The report was then agreed to. WAYS AND MEANS. The report on Ways and Means was brought up by Lord MoNCK, and agreed to. The house then went into committee on Ways and Means. On the motion of the CHANCELLOR of the EL CHEQUER a vote out of the Consolidated Fund of a 'sum of 13,000,0001. to cover the supplies voted during the session (in committee of Ways and Means) was agrced to. The following bills were read a third time and passed —The Customs Duty ; the Racehorse Duty Act Amend ment; the Cinque Ports Act Amendment, and the Pau per Maintenance. MUTINY BILL. This bill was brought in and read a first time. 14.1A_RINP. The house at a quarter to six o'clock adjourned till t )-morrow at one o'clock. Naval and Military intelligence. Major S. G.
