Yet nothing is, ordinarily, so difficult to obtain. Tb ere are the greatest facilities for purchasing every tiling which will heat the already heated blond, and in crease the thirst a'reaiy suffered ; there are certain cooling drinks which may be had for money, though not readily ; but the great- natural provision for thirst can scarcely be had at all. The weary wanderer, who has hardly the means of procuring food, the very many poor children whom yarirea , causes send into our streets, suf fer unrelieved ; nor should what the animals kept for convenience endure, be overlooked. In some towne, here and there, the stbee troughi and iron bowl by whioh past generations - rendered some old spring avail able to the wayfarer and to the workman may yet be seen, In others more modern contrivances have been adopted. As population increases there is the more need for the extension of so excellent a sys tem. The subjoined extracts show what'has been done in some places. In the metropolis there are seve re' instances of the same benevolent provision. We heartily recommend to our townsmen the imitation of these laudable examples, believing that a sufficient ,sub scription for the erection of public drinking fountains in Leeds would be readily obtained. The Livcrpool Year Book says :—'s One of the- most spirited and practical efforts ever made to increase our local sanitary appli ence leas emanated from a private individual, Mr. C. P. Melly, of this town. Since March, 1854, Mr. Melly has erected at his own coat numerous drinking foun talne in different parts of the town, which afford a constant supply of pure and refreshing water to the thirsty wayfarer. The first fountain was erected on the 31st cf March, 1854, at the south end of Prince's Dock ; it was of polished Aberdeen granite. In the course of the same year six small cast-iron fountains were erected along the north end of the dock property. The cast .of these latter wae, to a certain degree, re funded by the Town-council, who promised to erect several more, and to maintlin a good supply of water to all. In neither respect did they fulfil their promises ; and in the commencement of the past year (1856), Mr. Mdly, despairing of seeing the number of foun tains increased by the Town-council and finding from statistics that their usefulness far exceeded his most sanguine expectations, again commenced erecting some new ones at his own expense. Mr. M'Donnell, of Aberdeen, seconding him, by offering to furni , la polished granite fountains, according to Mr. Melly's design, at prime cost, without profit to himself ; and we have the - pleasure to announce that 14 polished driuking fountains have been erected in the course of the year. Each fountain has two galvanised iron ladles attached by slight chains to the wall on each side, and - is ornamented with a handsome bronze head of lion, boy, satyr, or other design, furnished by Messenger and Sons, of Birmingham. Oa the 6th and 7th of July, the number drinking at different fountains along the south end of the docks exceeded 2,500 persons per day at each." The British, Worklizan adds,—" We are glad to learn that Brkenhead and Runcorn are following the good example of Liverpool, and we trust that ins London and many other, pieces gentlemen will be found with hearts as large and purses as beau , as Mr. Melly's, by whom water for the people will be provided by means of these public drinking fountains."—Leeds Mercury. THE ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION IN THE QUEEN'S PRISON.-In consequence of the weak and exhausted state of Mr. Robertson, the inquiry into the charge has been adjourned for a week. The wounded man is pro gressing favourably. THE MAILS, &0.-SOUTHAMPTON, Thursday-The Royal Mail Company's steamship Tamar, Captain Jel lime, Failed to-day with the Brazilian and River Plate mails, 62 passengers, specie value 33.2001., jewelry value 32,0001., and a full cargo. The European.and Ame rican Company's steamship Argo, Captain Benson, which left New York on the 24th ult., arrived here early this morning bringing 150 passengers and a general cargo for Southampton and Bremen. She earls for Bremen at daylight. On ber - paesage shepassed the American ship Exchange, in lat. 43 45 N., long 42 14 W. steering to the 'southward •, th'e American ship Potomac, in lat. 46 20 N., long. 36 10 W., steering to the eastward ; and the barque Janet Henderson, in lat. 47 21 N., long. 31 33 W., steering to the westward. The American steamer Vanderbilt, which left yesterday for New York, took a ship letter mail, 122 passengers (chiefly from Havre), and about 1,000 tons of cargo. The basis on which the amalgamation of the Royal Mail Company and the European and Australian Royal Mail Company is proposed to be carried out is stated to he as follows :-The capital stock of the two companies is to be fixed at 2,000,0001. Half of this is to be re presented by 15,000 Royal Mail shares, at 661. 13s. 41. each, which are regarded as folly paid up. The remain ing 1,000,0001. is represented by 9,000 European and Auetra,lian shares, at 661. 13s. 4t1., which would amount to 600,0001., and unissued stock for 400, 00 01. On the European and. Australian shares 200,0001. has yet to be paid, which will be called for by four instalments. These shares are not to receive any dividends for a year, reckoning from the first of July, 1857, it being provided that any profits from the Australian service, together • with the surplus profits of the Royal Mail Company after the letter have paid the usual dividend on their shares, shall be carried dur ing that period to a united reserve fund. Afterwards both sets of shares will rank alike. The conditions are subject to the approval of the shareholders of the respec tive companies and also to a proviso for an extensiou of two years of their exi-tieg contracts being obtained from the Government. PAUPERISM AND THE POOR LAW.-The ninth annual report of the Poor Law Board (tor the year 1856) hits been printed in the form of a blue-book of 100 pages, with appendices, Bze. In the year ended Ledy-day, 1856, the sum of 6,004,2441. was expended for the relief of the poor, being equivalent to an increase of 114,2031. as compared with the sum expended in the. preceding year, or 1 9 per cent. Tho rate per head on the population was 6s. 3icl. The increase was distributed over the counties as follows-viz., in Staffordshire, 9'7 per cent. ; in Nottinghamshire, 9 . 5 ; in Chester 8.5 ; in - Leicester- . shire, S 8 ; in Salop, 5 7 ; in Bedfordshire. 5 6 ; in Mid dlesex, 5 4 ; in Anglesea, 5 1 ; in Lancashire, 4 8 ; in Yorkshire (West Riding), 4'5 ; in Pembrokeshire, 4 . 4 ; in Radnorshire, 4 . 4 ; in Derbyshire, 4 2 ; in Yorkshire (East) 4.0 ; in Herefordshire, 3 9 ; in Durham, 3 5 ; in Flintshire, 3.5 ; in Worcestershire, 3 5 ; in Bucking hamshire, 3 . 4; in Carnarvonshire, 3'4 ; in More mouth, 3 . 1 ; in Carmarthen, 2 8 ; in Merioneth, 2 . 8 ; in Cardigan, 2.1 ;in Somerset, 2 ;in Rutland, 1 ; in Devon, 1.5 ; in Glamorgan, 1•4 ; in Cornwall, 1 . 2 ; in Ncrthunaberland, 1.1 ; in Montgomery, .1.0 ; in Glou cester, 0 9 ; in Berets, 0 8 ; in Southampton, 0 . 8 ; in -Oxford, 0 . 5; in E.erts, 0.4 ; in Wilts, 0.2 ; in Northamp ton, 01 ; and in Surrey, 0 . 1 per cent. The decrease was as follows :-viz., in Brecon, o'l per cent. ; in Suf folk, 0 . 6; in Denbigh, 0•8 ; in Es-ex, 0 . 9 ; in West moreland, 0 9 ; in Warwick, I'3 ; in Huetingdon, 1 4 ; in Cambridge, 1 . 5 ; in Kent, 1.5 ; in Cumberland, I'6 ; in Lincoln, 16 ; in Dorset, 2 0 - ; in York (North), 2 . 6 ; in Sussex, 3.3 ; and in Norfolk, 3.6 per cent. The in , crease is mainly attributable to the high price of provi sione. An increase is also noticeable in the number of persons receiving relief. Subsequent returns, however, indicate a progressive decrease in the number of paupers, and the commissioners see grounds for expecting that both the number of paupers arid the amount of expeiadi: ture will have a tendency to diminish. Tbe average ex penditure of the 23 years occurring between 1834 and 1856 was 6 4 . 2d. per head on the estimated population, that in the year 1855-56 having been slightly above the ave rage. The commissioners report that they have endea voured to avail themselves of every practicable opportu• nity to promote the education of children in workhouses, and that their views have been shared and acted upon by many boards of guardians. The average number of chil dren attending workhouse scho• Is in the hatf•year ended at Lade-dey, 1856, was 17,666 boys and 17,416 girls, and the average number of children attending district schools 1,488 boys and 1,284 girls. 26,6161. wee the amount paid to boards of gum:liens out of the Parlia mentary grant in respect of the salaries of workhouse and district school teachers in the year ended Lady-day, 1856 ; only 211 perinea were asisted to emigrate during the year. The number of Insane paupers chareeable to the poor rates on the let of Jan. 1857, was 27,643, of whom 17,192 were luna ti c s and 10,501 idiots. The total cost of maintaining these paper lunatic s a pp ea rs to be 480,280/. The number of persons vaccinated by public vacc i na t ors i n England and Wales during the year was 435,012, and of these 422,281 were successful. E?Eli MAJESTY'S VISIT TO ALDERSHOT. The dull routine of camp life at Aldershot was en livened on Wedeesday by a State visit. - Her Majesty, at toneed by the Court and a numerous staff, was present at a most brilliant field-day, and: afterwards made a for mal inspt-etion of the whole cantonment', including the real camp where- the tents are pitched among the firs and little dells of Cwre Common. - The Rqyal party arrived at the private station on the South-WiSstern Railway soon aft( r 9 o'clock, and at a few minutes before 10 reached Farnborough, *here a de tachment Of 7th Hussars was In attendance and escorted the cortege to camp, Her Majesty was mounted On'a superb bay charger and "wore her scarlet ridirg habit with a military sash and open riding hat with a small plume of red and white fJathera. Prince Frederick of Prussia, in the uniform of a colonel of Prussian Dragoons, rode on the right of her Majesty. His Boyd Highness the-Prince Consort, in a Fiel'aMarshal's uniform ; the Duke of Cambridge, the Princess Charlotte of Belgian), and the Prince of - Holienalrern, were on the left. There. were 16ss'than 9,000 troaps upon tho ground. The actual nunahers Beta-a-390 officers, 30 guns, and 8,200 men. Yesterday were represented the mancenvres by which a sudden attack is niet and a - Superior f•ree kept in cheek during a retreat. The heavy cavalry (the Ist and Gth-Dragoons), with a troop 91 Horse Artillery, wheeled round in columns of troops,, and advanced to the foot of Caesar's Camp, so ax to form the extreme left of the defending army, while' the light cavalry (the 7th and 15th Hussars), with another troop of Holao Artil lery, were rapidly advaneed in front, the infantry moving across the plain in solid columns to support. The light cavalry and artillery performed this duty of ad varicingso effectually that they Moved quite out: of sight, awl ap peared to have gone to threaten4Vienieeeter or Basing stoke. _ _ -After an interval of expectation, the light cavalry could be discerned in dark uteven masses on the hills far south . of Farnham-wood, slowly retreating along the high ground and watching the imaginary foe beneath them. The Rifles were despatched to their support, and breaking into skirmishing order, advanced and occupied the borders of the wood of Farnham. Immediately after the action began with an' irregular dropping fire, which swelled gradually into a continued rattle. The Rifles dodged from bush to bush, crowding behind the trees and mounds, lining the hedges, always on the move, but never slackening their fire for a single instant. The Horse Artillery, with the heavy cavalry cn the extreme left, supported them with a smart cannonade ; but the help was apparently unavailing, as, after a fierce defence of an orchard and farmhouse, the. retreat was sounded, and the Rifles fell slowly back. They stele across the open ground in twos and trees, tureirg every now arid then to fire, until they gained the shelt3r of the light cavalry, when the assemblee was sounded, and the whole regiment drawing together, re treated in double time. The light cavalry manceuvred to cover the movement, and in this they were supported by the troops of Horse. Artillery, which commenced the cannonade in hot earnest. The resistance, though gal lant, was supposed to be of no effect. The Artillery were ordered to limber up and retire, and the whole force commenced a rapid retreat. Tnis was one of the most briliiant and animating movements of the day. The heavy rumble of the field batteries 43 they moved off, the rapid movements of the cavalry, and, above al', the ceaseless din of trumpets and hoaree cries which rang from rank to rank, with all the hurry and confusion that seemed to pervade- the force, gave to the whole scene the aspect of a veritable field. The Horse. Artillery were the last to retire. They emerged from the low plantations, pres.eing their horses to the utmost, and thundering across the plain with a rush apparently as resistless as the sweep of destiny. As they fe;l back the regiments of infantry formed massive squares upon the common, through the intervals of which the mounted troops retreated, and formed upon the flanks of the squares to cover their retreat in turn. In this manner the greater portion of tho yinewaew l l i se l d a ro„b i eef i deetrevt, o eper f rslyy: A y,ae l i d :d: ershot - were traversed, the Court and staff moving from height to height, and having a l rapidly p n l t dray:t eo h , a ta t hn twedo were rrkei openedg p al l ed a fe c t e t .fio contributed file Tuhp firing,ep, o i s n e ea into h movement e spectatorsnl idn to swell the din ; but the retreat nevertheless went on as the advance of the enemy was overwhelming. The cavalry and Horse,Artil!ery made a last desperate effort to re trieve the fortunes of the day, and advanced to the point in two megnifieerst lines, with the guns on either flank. After two or three preparatory wheels over the ground, as a hawk might turn before he stooped upon his prey, the 7th and 15th Hussars formed line and halted. The trumpets sounded the advance, and with a dull jingling sound the line moved on faster and faster, till the charge rang out from ,every rank, and on they came, like a whirlwind over the plain, shaking the sclid earth, and scattering the turf like dust behind them. The grandest and most terrible feature of real warfare was here pour ' trayed with a fidelity which.made the very crowd seem awe-stricken and.appalled. Hardly WI the dust in the light cavalry track subsided when the' manoeuvre was repeated by the Dragoons, who swept the plain from end to end. eAs each charge was made tho mounted troops fall hack further and further, until they finally retreated on the flanks of the infantry, who had deployed into line at the foot of some steep heights surmounted by the field batteries. Here the last deeperate stand was made. A fierce file fire was opened, and every one of the 30 guns upon the ground was taxed to the utmost to keep up the Cannonade. Not till all parts of the common were wrapped in smoke, and the - whole scene as invisible to the Court as to the crowd, did the volleys cease. With this finaleffort the movements of the day were brought to a close. A . FRENCIT :BURGLARY The Court of Assizes of the Haute -Gamine has just been occupied two days in trying eight men for burglary and six women for complicity in the same. It appeared that a very old gentleman, named Montauriol, resides in a large house called Chateau des Bistards, in the commune of Mongiscard, and has all his life been accus tomed to . keep a large part of his fortune, which is in specie and bank notes, in his house.; The male priso ners, all worthless characters, of. the adjacent village of Monte.tquieu, formed the project of breaking- into the house, and stealing the money- Accordingly; i n the night of the 25th of September last, they went to the chateau, carrying with them several sacks which they proposed to fill with the inonsYe and also taking a horse to carry their booty away. To effect an entrance they began cutting a hale in the outer wall, but the dogs barked so furiously that they deemed it prudent to take to flight. Tso or three nights after they renewed the attempt, but for the Panne reason it failed. At length; in the pight of the Ist Dec. they went to the house, and while some kept watch around it the others made a hole in the wa 4 l which enabled them to undo the fastenings of a door. They then entered and ascended to the room in which old 111. Montauriol was sleeping. His female servant, w h o was the only person in the house besides himself, hearing a noise, came from her room, but the men pushed her back into it, and fee- Weed the door. The old man having been roused uttered loud cries, and one of the burglars, dragging him from the bed, told Mai they were 20 in number, and would .murder h'en 'if he stirred ; but he contieued to cry out, and they beat him violently about the head until he was silent. 'They then west into the room in which the money was kept, and breaking open a cup board proceeded to fill their sacks w ith money. Mean while, the fetuale . rsereeet,, opening her window, gave the Alarm. Some farm labourers, in. the service of Mauntauriel, hearing the cries hurried to the chateau ; and on their approach the burglars teok to flight, Carry ing with them the money which . they had collected. They afterwards divided the booty in different proper-. tiona according to the share each had had in the bur glary. As to the vvonsen,*who were wives of six of the men, they also rceved portions of the stolen money. On some of the burglars being arrested, one of them made full reveletionS respecting the whole affair. The precise amount which Was stolen was not known by M, Mon tauriol, but the 'prisoners themselves confessed that it was stated that the sum M. it was 35,835 f. Ttes jury acquitted the six women and one of the who was very fro. o rA ld, si a x n t d o c 2 o o nv y i e c a t r e s " . the u other seven prisoner-.

ELECTION. Mr. SCIIOLEFIELD brought up a report from the select committee appointed to try the Mayo election peti tion, to the effect that two letters had been - produced be fore the committee by Col. Higgins, alleging that a voter, J. M'Loughlin, had been seriously maltreated by a mob; and another voter, J.Gannon, had been jured so as to place his life in dang<r, in consequence of the evidence they had given before the committee. The committee, under these circumstances, had felt it their duty to make a special report of the same to the house, leaving it to the house to take such steps as it might see fit in the matter. Mr. WALPOLE.—I will for one moment. call at tention of the house to the report presented by tho chair roan of the committee for the Mayo election. I under stand that evidence was produced in the form of two letters addressed to Col. Higgins, that two persons who had been examined as witnesses before that committee have been seriously maltreated, and the life of one of them, John Gannon, placed in danger, by a mob, led on by a person named Sheridan. As that report is drawn up it contains no allegation as against any individual ; but I. think it right that '01313 house should not leave the matter as it stands without some further inquiry ; and it will, in Any opinion,.bethe best course to take to ask the Attor ney-General for Ireland if such intelligence has reached him, and if so, whether he is prepared to take such steps in the matter as may be deemed necessary. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL for IRELAND-- I. Having in the course of the day heard of the production of these letters before the committee, my right hon. friend the Chief Secretary for Ireland immediately telegraphed to Dublin ; and the reply received from the Under Secre tary for Ireland was, that intelligence had certainly been received that two persons had been beaten severely, but for what cause did not appear. The local authorities, however, acting with the stipendiary magistrate, had ar rested nine persons charged with participation in this outrage. The information further stated that as I was expected in Dublin the nest day, the papers relating to the case have been retained for my inspection. I shall be in Dublin to-morrow, and I apprize' the house that as the assizes for Mayo will commence this day week, I apprehend there will be no difficulty in putting these persons upon their trial, and if they are guilty bringing them to jastice. The penalty for the offence is very sc.. vere, and therefore any interference on the part of the house at this particular moment would, in my opinion, be an interference with the course of justice. There is no proof of the fact that the persons in question were maltreated for their evidence before the committee, and it will be somewhat difficult to establish it In the meantime, however, I may assure the house that the arm of the law is long enough and strong enough to reach the guilty parties ; and that I will take care it shall be immediately put in motion against them. (Hear, hear.) LUNATICS (SCOTLAND) BILL. On the order for the second reading of this bill, Mr. BAXTER rose and said the attention of this house has been called to a serious evil, and he hoped they would apply a suitable remedy. He hoped no feel itro of excitement would be allowed to weigh in earning to a decision. He believed much of the evil had arisen frem a defective state of the law with respect to nauper lunatics, The hon. member read an extract from the re port of the Commissioners on Lunacy in Scotland in sup port of his proposition. He hoped there would be no ob jection to reading the bill a second time. There was no time for delay, and it would not do to gloss over any of the evils which had been brought to light. While depre cating those evils, he thought that, on the part of Eng lishmen and Irishmen, a serious misconception existed as to the true state of affairs in relation to the Scotch lunatic poor. No country, in proportion to the popula tion, had done so much for lunatics as Scotland. That was proved by the report of the commissioners, although they had not been liberal enough in their commendations with respect to the chartered lunatic asylums of Scotland. Any one who could speak from personal experience would tear him out in that assertion. What they wanted in Scotland was an increase of the,e large chartered asy lums. For that deficiency the bill would provide a 1.4 rnedy, and he would like to see it rendered illegal to con fine pauper lunatics in any licensed madhouse. Tice good effect of the chartered asylums had been proved in Forfarshire, where they had two such institutions, and consequently that county would scarcely require to come under the operation of the bill. He trusted the Lord Ad vocate would see his way to place the inspection of those institutions at once under the Secretary of State for the Home Department, and abandon the temporary board scheme contained in the bill. Ho trusted the bill might pass during the present session, but he feared the op position which the proposed board would mite in Scotland would be fatal to the accomplishment of that desirable object. Mr. C. BRUCE regretted that he had not been able to attend the meeting of Scotch members on the subject of the bill. He concurred in what bad fallen from the lttt speaker with reference to the Scotch lunatic asylums, and entirely dissented from the necessity of creating any new board to look after lunatic asylums. The report of the commissioners had shown that the public asylums of Scotland were in as good a state as they could be, and that consequently the creation of a certain number of such institutions in each country would remove the evils connected with private asylums. There could be no doubt that many of the evils of the Scotch lunatic asylums had arisen from the defects in existing laws. The attention of Lord Derby's Government had been brought in 1852 to the fact that the Poor-law Board of Scotland had not power enough to deal with the evils of the system. He thought, instead of a new board, all they required was to nominate at once two inspectors to the Board of Super vision. He believed that step would be amply sufficient to remedy the evil which at present existed, iu regard to licensed houses. The condition of the pauper lunatics had been much ameliorated since the poor laws had been in operation, and consequently he did not think the cum brous machinery of such a board as was proposed by the bill was at all required. Lot the Lord Advocate give ' 1 them power to compel counties not having s ufficient ac commodation for pauper lunatics, to provide that ac commodation, and it would be all the legislation that was required. Mr. H. DRUMMOND said that the inspectors were the main cause of the mischief complained of by th e frauds they committed. They were only popular with the lairds and the doctors, and they dreaded the censure of the people. It was necessary something should be done to protect these poor creatures, and he hoped the house would not consent to delay. The treatment of the poor in Scotland was scandalous, and he should like to see a commission appointed for investigating their condition in that country. Mr. 11, JOHNSTONE hoped there would be no delay n passing the bill, which, with a little alteration, would meet the evils complained of i❑ the treatment of Scotch lunatics. Colonel SYKES said that the bead of the Bob.rd of Su pervision did not deserve the odium that bad been cast upon him. He had over and over again reported the evils pointed out by the commissioners, but unfortudatay be could not remedy them, and the Home Secretary and the sheriffs, whose glace it was to act, bad declined to do so. Mr. WHITBREAD called attention -to the commis sioners' reports relative to Hill-end-house, and said that if the Lord Advocate, wished to prove he was in earnest in this matter he would touch the pockets of those per sons who made their living by keeping these establish ments, by proceeding against them for penalties on the evidence taken by the commissioners. After some remarks from Mr. F. DUNDAS, who denied the truth of the Kirkdale case, that of a poor woman's ribs being broken from the violence of the gaoler of Kirkwall. Mr. E ELLICE, jun., contended that 'he report of the commissioners was a fair average of - the treatment to which lunatics were subjected in Scotland. He com pl tined of the constitution of the Board of Supervision, which he sail had been the cause of many of the evils, from the indifferent manner in which the members had discharged their duties, and he could not acquit the head of that board of culpability. In legislating on the subject, three things should be observed; first, the establishment. of proper asylums for the reception of pauper lunatics ; secondly, proper inspection of every place in which lunatics might be confined ; and thirdly, that the Board of Supervision should retain the power of exempting, under certain circumstances, the lodging of pauper lunatics in asylums, guarantees being taken that it should not be abused. The course he meant to take, was to leave the working out of ehe detads of the measure to the respeesibility of Government. He stated his views on certain clauses of the bill, observing that he was much averse to centralisation, which, naturally excited the displeasure of the people. The case of the medical men connect=ed with pauper lunatics in Scotland loudly called for interference, and the Government should take care that a minimum alio veance for them should be inserted in the bill, which the parishes should be bound to pay. He called upcn the Government to make examples of the keepers of lunatic asylums whose conduct bad been con demned by the commissioners, and he asked that some • thing should be done for those pauper lunatics, espe cially females, who would be at liberty during the build ing of the new asylums. Unless the Parishes were corn to take care of them he should support the bill, and he thanked the Lord Advocate for having intro duced it so soon after he (Mr. Ellice) had called the at tention of the house to the subject. In reference to the Kirk wall case be said he hact made inquiries and found, the poor wowan was under a delusion where she re ceived her injury, but the facts remained the same. Mr. BLACKBURN said that the Board of Supervi sion bad been most anxious to answer all the charges made against them, and on investigating the case § brought under the notice of the commissioners the Board of Supervision had found the evidence to be more erro usous than they expected. Out of four cases two of them had been proved not to be lunatic& , He agreed with the necessity of asylums being established, and a better system of supervision introduced. He asked for a return of the correspondence, that had passed between the commission and the board of supervision on this sub ject, and their answer to' the report. Referring to the Kirkwall case, he thought it would be found that the poor woman end net receive her injuries from any gaoler or keeper of a lunatic asylum, but from an accident. Sir G. GREY said that be bad received a report from the Bard of Supervision, in answer to the re port of the commissioners, but in consequence of its con taining statements contrary to the forms of the house, he ceull not lay it on the table of the house. He bad, therefore, sent it back for correction, and when he received it in an amended form he should have no objec-' tiou to produce it. He did not consider the report im pugned the commissioners' report sufficiently to render immediate legislation on the subject necessary. He was bound in justice to Sir J. M'Neill to state that he en tirely concurred in his conduct as' e head of the Board of Supervision. Mr. EWART suggested that the board should be local, and under the control of the local authorities. He trusted the Lord Advocate would give consideration to the suggestions of those hon. members who thought the bill inadequate to effect its objects. He should support the second reading, in the hopes that the bill would be improved in committee. Mr. DUNLOP expressed his great gratification at seeing a speedy end to those harrowing scenes that at present went on in Scotland. He was quite sure that tender a proper system the existing evils might have been avoided. The law required to be altered, and without the power of erecting asylums and sending proper persons I to inspect them, no amount of care would be sufficient. . The LORD ADVOCATE, in reference to the consti tution of the board, said that the proposition of an Eng lish, board and two commissioners had been considered, and that it would be impossible to work with such a system. Another proposal was to put it under the Secre tary of State, and that might answer very well when the system was well established ; but for the first five years it would be advisable to have one or two unpaid mem bers associated e ith the inspectors rather than to leave the whole matter in the hands of the Secretary of State. In respect to the case of a lunatic who was said to have been illused, every inquiry bad been made, and there was not the slightest ground for believing that any vio lence had been used. She was a very violent lunatio. Mr. BLACK did not consider himself justified in re maining silent after the attack on the board of supervi• sion, of which he had been a member, and he never saw business better conducted than it had been by that board. It was necessary to consider the mode of hying of the people, for the dietary form in some English workhouses would be considered perfect luxury by even the peasan try in some parts of Scotland, so that if the same dietary were adopted there, there would be a competition to get on the pauper roll. If there had been a striking of the poor, it was not by the fault of the board of supervision. Mr. COWAN thought it was time that something was done to remedy the existing discreditable state of affairs. The bill was then read a second time, and appointed to go through committee this day week at 12 o'clock. FRAUDULENT TRUSTEES BILL. The house went committee on this bill. On clauAi 4, • Mr. E. EGERTON moved to insert after the word " property" the words "or being entrusted with ary property of any description for the purpose of perform ing, or causing to be perfo'tned, any work or labour upon or in respect of the same." Mr. AYRTON objected that many acts which at pre sent could ba treated as larcenies, and dealt with sum marily, could under this amendment be only treated by indictment at tho assizes. Mr. HADFIELD and Mr. C. LEIGH supported the amendment. Tho ATTORNEY-GENERAL had no objection to the comprehending the special case intended in this bill in accordance with the principle which several hon. gen amen tiad advocated, but he was afrid of including other cases not intended. He suggested that the amendment should stand over, and should be brought up again on the report. After some further conversation the amendment was withdrawn, and the clause was agreed to. On clause 9, Mr. HADFIELD called the attention of the house to the hardship to which honest trustees were erKposed, and the consequent unwillingness of respectable persons to un dertake S 9 arduous and perilous an office. He trusted something would be done far the relief of the honest trus tee from the risks to which he was at present (*posed. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said he proposed to make some alterations which would meet the difficulties suggested. The clause with some amendments was agreed to. On clause 10, providing that any answer compulsorily given by a trustee under the act, shall not be used against him in criminal cases, Mr. BUTT objected to the clause, as trenching upon an important principle of the law. Mr. AYRTOiN said this was the first Act of Parlia ment over introduced violating the principle of law ad verted to by the last speaker, and thought the commit tee should be very n , refui in adopting it. The ATTORNEY-GENEItAL contended that this proviso wculil not violate any principle of law, and with out it the bill would be useless. Mr. BAINES considered that the danger appre hended was guarded against by the latter part of the clause. Mr. MALINS held that if the clause wera altered it would destroy justice instead of promoting it. Mr. COLLIER said there was no novelty. in the clsuse.which was based upon the recognised ples rincip of English law. On clause 11, nothing lir.CintiNs S a p t r c o o p n o t saei contained add tehffeeseet wortswords j : u — d i'ci And not e a y agreemert entered into or security given by any trustee, heeling for its object the r estoration or repayment of any trust property misappropriaeed." The ATTORNEY -GENERAL acceded te the addition of the words, and the clause as amended was agreed to. On clause 12, Mr. CAIRNS moved that it might be so amended as to stand as follows :--" No proceeding or prosecution for any offence included in the first seation of this act shall be commenced or carried on otherwise than in the manner hereinafter mentioned—that is to say 1. That in any civil proceeding against a trustee, or in a ny proceeding under the bankruptcy of any person be- - ing a trustee, it shall appear to the court or judge be fore whom such proceeding shall be pending that there is reasonable and probable cause for a criminal prosecu tion against such trustee under this act, it shall he law ful for such c curt or judge to make au order sanctioning such prosecution. 2. Such order sanctioning a prose cution may be made at any stage of the proceeding pending before such court or ju-fge, and may he ob tained upon motion or petition in a summary way. 3. If the court or judge, on an application being made to sanction such prosecution, shall be of opinion that th e trustee should be held to bail until either such sanction shall be refused, or until a warrant for the arre.t of such trustee shall be issued in due course of law, it shall be lawful for the court or judge to direct a writ or writs of ne (fleet regno to issue against the trustee, marked for such sum as the court or judge shal lthink fit, not ex ceeding the estimated value of the property alleged to Ihave been misappropriated, and such writ rie mat thei earner, 4se-;eseleel-a, and shall be rettoahll ilk the usual tan: that the court or judge - shall Lavep o. r re from the pera rn applYing for ary soc'i writ ,y to answer any d ten2,ge4 in ca-e it shall be found that si writrwas - improperly obtained." Mr. 130 WYER considered the amendment an impor. tant improvement in the bi 1. Under the bill as it'stood he believed that there were many persons who would be unable to-obtain trustees at all. The office of trustee was an unpaid office and frequently a very thankless one, and yet the law imposed , Upon trustees a greater degree of responsibility, and a greater amount of skill, exact ness, and care than upon any other class of persons. It was very I:lnadvisable to impose fresh burdens upon them. Mr. COLLIER complained that the bill made the Court of Chancery a vestibule to the Old Bailey. Under its provisions a widow, for instance, could not prosecute a trustee for appropriating a hundred sovereigns without application to the Court of Chancery. Why should there be more difficulty in prosecutinni for appropriating .a hundred Sovereigns than for stealing a hundred sove reigns ? Why should the expensive machinery of- the Court of Chancery be made necessary t It might be Made necessary to obtain the consent Of sortie-Public office ; but to make a writ in Chancery necessary was preposterous. Mr. CAIRNS said that the suit in Chancery areonntei merely to putting a piece of pap er on a fi le, and the very might go t o a j u d ge and institute tide would co s t b ut a few shillings, earn© hisp r h o s o e u c r u t t o e n p , a a r n t d y and would erabla the judge to call the other parties before him. Sir F. KELLY thought that both the c i lause and th an..enchneet were open to objection. The oljection to the clause was, that by it a trustee might be apprehended and sentto prison without being beam inhis own defence. A slight alteration would set this right. The clause pro vided that a prosecution could only be instituted by-con sent. of a judge or the Attorney-General. Now, be thought that before this was done•the part; should -be summoned, and heard in his own defence. He was aware that even now by application to the grand jury a person might,be apprehended without being beard,, but now for the first time, this power was given to a large number of single it.dividuals, and noblemen and gentlemen might then find themselves suddenly dragged to prison. He entreated that whether the clause or amendment were adopted, the party should be first heard in his own defence. Before they allowed the Attorney. General to authorise prosecutions, they should give a power to the courts when a trustee appeared guilty of fraud or error, to order a prosecution to be instituted ; but in every case the trustees should have an opportu nity of showing cause against the prosecutor. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said that the recom mendation that had just been made by the learned gen tleman New, that ajudge or the Attorney General should, upon summoning the accused party, have power, Jo dis pose of the case. But if a summons was necessary, the fraudulent trustee would immediately get out of the kingdom. Again, the bee. and learned member advised that a power should be given to the judge of authorising a prosecution. The bill, as it stood, already went further than this. As to the ameuiment of the hon. member for Belfast (Mr. Cairns), it dealt with a clause which he himself had only inserted in deference to the advice of others. Trustees were now threatened on account of technical rules, in regard to their having erred from the beSt possible motivee. On the other band, they may have erred intentionary and with fraudulent motives. These were the two matters they had to deal with. It had been said that there were great objections to entrust ing the power of order log proceedings in these matters to the Attorney-General, but similar duties at present at tached to the office of the Attorney-General, as for in stance, in all criminal prosecutions ordered by the State. But much of the difficulty would be got rid of by the im provement of our criminal law, which had so long been thought of, the appointment of a public prosecutor. The authorisation of such prosecutor as that contained in the bill, should not be entrusted to an ordinary police magistrate. and for that reason he proposed that at plication ~ hould first bo made to the Attorney-General or ajado at chambers, and he thought that he had es t ibilshed sufficient preliminary inquiry to prevent abuse, and yet so rapid as to answer ad purpose of preventing escape from justice. lie would then come to the hon. member'b amendment. The first clauses ordered a civil proceeding, and that it must judicially appear that there was a sufficient cause for the prosecution. This could only appear after going regularly through the evidence. But a procee hug of this kind would be foreign to the habits of a juJge, and one which he would undertake with extreme reluctance. The rault would be that they wouldziot order a prosecution till after the trial of tie case. Of clurse a jury would be affected by a preliminary inquiry of this kind ) and for this reason the first two causes of the amendment seemed highly :obieettonable. The third clause provided for an arrest of the trustee, but the consequence of its provision would be to allow the trustee to give bail for tue smallest amount of which he was accused, after which he would be eff to the conti nent. He, therefore, trusted that the committee would agree with him in supportinc , the original clause. Sir F. KELLY concurred with his learned friend in the view he took of the danger of escape of the guilty party, unless immediate steps were taken to arrest him. This might be provided for by giving the judge the power of causing that party to be insantly brought before him, to show cause why prosecution should not be instituted against him. But he held to his opinion that the party ought to be alio ed to be heard in his.own defence. He woule be content if the clause gave a summary power to the Attorney-Generallo summon the parties before him, but as they were constituting a new class of offences, it-. should be clearly understood that the judges, nnleas eas tisfied of the necessity of an instantsprosecutim, amid first summon the par:ies before him. Mr. BOLT said the bill ought to provide for the protectien of the innocent trustee as much as for the punishment of the guilty. The relation of a trustee to his ward was altogether different from those of any other relations of life. The relation of cestnique trust lasted for life, and was taken up without hope of profit. It was, therefore, necessary to protect the innocent trustee from malicious persecution. As to the two clauses be fore the house, he thought that the amendment was to be preferred to the original clause. By the original clause, all the preliminary proceedings were to be ex parte. The discretionary power given to the Attorney- General was such as would never be acted upon, and then the guilty would escape, or be always acted upon, and then the innocent would be punished. The amendment of his hon. friend was a happy medium ; it gave the powers of [-auctioning a prosecution at any stage of the proceedinr, yet allowing bail if the accused party should be able to chow good reasons why it should be granted. It struck the happy medium. It did not allow the guilty party to escape, or the innocent party to be punished without a fair chance of making his defence. The only difference between the two clauses was that by the one the cestuique trust would prosecute the trustee without notice ; while, by the other, a fair opportunity was given to the trustee of being heard is his own defence. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said that the object of the amendment was to provide that no order could be made by the judge withcut hearing the case. Now this was provided by the bill, unless where it was necessary, from the circumstances of the case, to provide otherwise. It was left to the discretion of the judge. He could not conceive the object of the amendment, which was not already provided for by the clause, which provided both for the exparte statement and the hearing of the accused parties. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said that he had origi nally intended that the judges should have the power to commit in the same manner as police magistrates ; but he bad since found that the judges felt great reluctance to exercise that power, and he had, therefore, framed the clause in the manner in which it now stood. Mr. CAIRNS then withdrew the amendment, and clause 12, as amended, was ordered to stand part of the bill, as were also the remaining clauses. COURT OF SESSION (SCOTLAND) BILL. The LORD-ADVOCATE moved the second reading of this bill. Mr. BLACK moved that the bill be read a second time this day three months.
