Paid Leasing Companies Closing Moos this day. Busittess this day Mr. MALINS also objected to the law for imprison ment for debt, and assured the committee that many were so enamoured with their imprisonment that they declined to be liberated, and he instanced a case in which he was counsel, where a man who had been imprisoned 20 years had no desire to be liberated. With'a view to giving the Attorney-General for Ireland time to consider the seggestion made, he moved that the chairman report progress. The ATTORNEY-GENERA.L for Ireland resisted .-•. the motion for reporting progress. He Nas not framing a code of laws that had had no t xistencee, but manly consolidating tho Bankruptcy and Insolvent la - ws of Irebnci, and asking to abolish a Court that was useless, and to some extent, a nuisance. The hill had cost him much labour and anxiety. It was first introduced in 1855, when it was printed and circulated for the conside ration of hon. members, as well as those connected with the law in Ireland soliciting improvements. The only objections to the bill earns from the hon. and learned member for Enniskillen, and he (the Attorney-General) adopted such as he thought improvements. (El-an) The learned gentleman then alluded to his being unable to proceed with the bill in 1855, and said that was the first stage at which the bill had been opposed. It the house at any time wished to abolish the distinction between bankruptcy and insol vency, this bill would not interfere with it, because it only re-enacted the present lass. When he undei took this measure it Was repre , ented to him by commercial !mu in Ireland that the Insolvent Court was unnecessary —that its existence embarrassed mercantile transactiorj, and thar, the administration of the two laws might be ad vanta2:eously vested in one tribunal. This bill would not interfere with the discharge of insolvents by clunty court judges as now-existed, and it only provided br the distri bution of insolvent estates by the Court of Bankruptcy. at/ should be able to show when tt.e corn eattee came to consider the financial clause that the bill would - not increase the expenditure one chilling, but, on the con trary, that when the compervati.ins fell in there would be a permanent saving of 3,0001. per atrium. The officers of the proposed new court wooly he taken from the rxeting court , , or from discharged officers of those courts. His only object was to substitute one court for two bad oues ; to make the law cheap and efficacious, and to invest the new court with powers that would prove advantageous to the trading couamu nity. After some remarks from Mr. Henley, Mr. White side,'and Mr. Malins, the motion for reporting progress was withdra wo. Clauses 1 to 28 were then agreed to. Oa clause 29, relative to appea', Mr. VANCE said that tbere were but t-r:o courts of appeal in England, and saw no rea'on why tLere should be three in Ireland. lie moved that the appeal to the Lord C'iancellor, should be struck out. After a discussion in which Mr. Matins, Mr. Ser jeant O'Brien, Mr. Bland, and the Attorney General for Ireland took part, the amendment was agreed to without a division. Causes 30 to 33 inclusive were agreed to, aftar verbal amendments. Clau-tie 34 was struck out of the bill. Clauses 35 to 45 Acre after a few alterations agreed to. Clause 46, having reference to the appointment of officers, was postponed. Clauses 47 to 67 were agreed to, after amendments. On clAtve 68. securing the payment of costs to the offic,al assignee when plaintiff by order of the Court, Mr. VANCE moved that it be struck out. Official assignees in England were not so protected. Mr. AYRTON suggested that the costs should be directed to be paid out of the estate. The amendment was withdrawn, and the clause agreed to, the Attorney-General for Ireland promising to con sider Mr. Ayrton's on bringing up the report. C auses 69 to to 84 were agreed to. Ou clause 85, relative to the retiring pension of the officers, Mr. MALINS a - , , lted why the Chief Commissioner was to be allowed to rotire after °ay three years' sor vico on full salary. ' Mr. AYRTOST protested against the passing of the clause. He suggested that if the commissioner was not to be employed again that the retiring sum should be reduced to two-thirds of his present amount, but that if he was to be paid in full he should be compelled to re sign his pension and take the first office that became vacant after his resignation. After some remarks from the Attorney-General for Ir land, in support of the hill, who said that, where there was a compulsory retirement, it was usual to give the full amount of salary as a retiring pension, and that he bra , ' made provision for the deduction of the pension on the reappointment of the ChM Commisssioner to office, The clause wag agreed to, the Attorney-General pro mising to consider the claim to full - compensation of officers who had held office 30 years on bringing up the report. Clauses up to 158 were agreed to, on the undemtand ing that certain alterations were to be made ou bringing up the report. The Chairman reported progress, and obtained leave ;0 bit again.

Their lordships asiemblel shortly after four o'clock, Lord Redeedale, the deputy speaker, in the chair. FIRST RE ADINGS. The Sound Dues ; Ct'unty Cess (Ireland) Bill ; and the Militia Act (Ireland) Amendment bill were severally rend a first time. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The South Shielde Gas, Sunderland Gas, South Devon Railway, and Illeriton's and liage , i'g Sufferance Wharves all were read a third time and paeed. Their 1-miships adjourned during pleavure The LORD CHANCELLOR, took his seat on the woolsack sit five o'clock. Lord DUNGANNON presented a petition from Clstle Pollard in Ireland against the Mini.ter's Money The Marquis of WESTM.E3TII presented a petition to a similar effect. _ The Rad of MA_LSIESBURY presented petitions from parishes' in London in favour of an equalisa tion of the poor-rate, and also a petition in favour of a repeal of the Soperanuuaiion Act. The noble lord said hs wad in favour of an equalisation of the peor rate, but thought that some preliminary steps ought to b 3 taken to prevent extravagance. MINISTERS' MONEY BILL. The Earl of WICKLOW said, in the event of this bill being real a ecoud a time, he should roov , that the Ecclesiastical Commi7 , .sioners, from wborn he last night presented kpetition against the bill be heard M their lordship4' bar. Lord ELLENBOROUGH thought that the returns which had been moved for should be on their lordAipi' table before the bi:l was read a second time. He had always been in favour of the abi Mimi of Ministers' niovey, but it ctas important that they should have full information as to the revenues of the Ecclesiastical Com missioners before the discusston came on. ECCLESIASTICAL CO vl IVIISSIONS.- INDIAN LA.W COURTS, Lord MONTEAGLE asked the nolle dnke, the Lord Privy Said, whether it was the intention of the Govern , went to carry out the recommendation of a commi. , sion which sat some time ago and recommended an amal4a mation of the Suddar and Supreme Courts in India. The notle lord accused the Indian Government of a breach of faith in not carrying out the recommendation. The Dnke of ARGYLL said the Indian Govern ment had committed no breach of faith in not carrying out the recommendation. The subjeCt was one so sur rounded with difficulties that it was irepoAsible to give any plc, age as to the course to be punned. The Marqeis of CLANRICARDE stronely con demned the manner in which the affairs of India were administered. The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH trusted that no desire to amalgamate the Suddar and Supreme Courts would induce Parliament to override the authority of the Legislative Council in India. After a few words from Lord MONTEAGLE, the subjeot dropped. REFORMATORY INSTITUTIONS BILL. CA.RiNTA.:./YON rose to move the second reading of this bill. One of the provisions of it was to extend to magi‘trates the power of committing offenders, up to the age of 20, to reforma tory establishments, instead of limiting it to young offenders under 16 years of age. It also contained clauses which enacted that no conditional pardon should be granted to any juvenile offender until he bad under gone one-half of his original sentence.

Petitions were presented frouarelAni in favour of the TeLant Right Bill ; in favour of medical reform ; ex:.en sion of the jurisdiction of the CJunty C'mrts ; for the repeal of obeolete laws relating t, nowapaporg, &c. BANKRUPTCYAI!TD INSOLVENCY (IRELAND) BILL. Tile house went into committee on thi4 bill, on the motion of the ATTORNEY-GENERAL for IRE LAND. Off the let clattge, MA.CARTNn4Y said that, as in a com mittee of progress, he could not move the refer ence of this bill to a select committee, that its pecuniary and official clauses might be properly considered, be should merely confine his remarks to those clauses, and at a future stage of the bid move their reference to a select countnitee for the object he had stated. The hon. gentleman, at some kagth, entered into the constitution Of the present Bankruptcy and In solvent Courts in Ireland, and t' o number of judges and officers connected with them, and the sal tries paid to them. The present bill contained 430 clauses. 30 of them referred to the constitution and pecuniary arrange ment of the new courts ; 4 to the stamp duties ; 271 to bankruptcy ; 72 to insolvency ; and 19 to joint bank - ruptcy and insolvency administration. The el .uses were 'm: - .:cou up in such a manner in thi bill that they required the most serious considerAton and attention of a select committee to put them in a shape to be properly and easily understood. lle asked the committee to suspend the consideration of the pecuniary and official clauses until after they had been considered attentively by a select committee. The honourable gentle man said that a loose system was adopted by the Treasury towards the Irish law courts, and referred to a charge of 37,000/. advanced by the Treasury, within two years, towards the payment of the Bankruptcy Compensation Fund, Chancery Compensation Fee Fund, and the Suitors' Fee Fund. Mr. VANCE also urged various objections to the bill. Great inconvenience must result from combining bankruptcy and insolvency in the :aine court, He also objected to the clauses putting the officers of the old court, who were capable of discharging their duties for many years to come, on the Treasury compensation scale, to their injury and the increase of charges on the public funds that would be occasioned thtreby. Mr. WHITESIDE was at a loss to understand why' the distinction should be kept uu between bankruptcy and insolvency. It infi cted great injustice ou many, and he instanced the ca‘e of a gentleman who succeeded to an estate in Irela,d, on which there were certain charges to some of which he made himself liable. He gave up everything. His estate was .old in the In cumbered Estates Court, and he was made an insolvent, the effedt of which was that he Was still liable, whereas if he had been made a bankrupt he would have received his certificate and become a new man. (Hear, bear.) The learned gentleman also objected to the abolition and creation of so many law offices in Ireland, and said that he intended to move fur a return of the number of persons capable of attending to business who had been compensated or pensioned by the Government to make room for new officers on every change that took place in the administration of the l aw in Ire land. He assured the committee that they would be astonished at the number of pensioned law-officers walking idly about the streets of Dublin who were in the prima of life and capable of discharging efficiently very important duties. This bill would add to the num ber. This bill if passed would entail great a xpense with out a correspondime benefit. He concurred in the sug gestion that the bill should be referred to a select com mittee, as the result might tend to the improvement of the bankruptcy and insolvent law of England and Ire land, by abolishing the distinction that at present existed between the two. Mr. MALINS concurred in the remarks of the bon. and learned member for Enniskillen with reference to the distinction between bankruptcy and insolvency, and supported the suggestion for referring this bill to a select coinrnittee. He was at a loss to know why the dis tinction was kept up between traders aed non-traders, and why a non trader who gave up all be possessed, should nut be able to clear himself on becoming insol vents as a trader did when he became a bankrupt, and commence the world again as a free man. There was no reasonable prospect of this bill being properly discussed this session, amid therefore he hoped to see it referred to a select committee of com mercial men and lawyers, that many of the objections taken to it, and to the distinction between bankruptcy and insolvency, might be properly discussed and consi dered. Mr. HADFIELD called attention to the present state of the law relative to imprisonment for debt, and also to the unprecedented length of time suitors of the Court of Chancery were imprisoned for contempt of that court. Though Vie Crown might extend mercy in cases of life or death, it could not in reference to imprisonment for contempt of the Court of Chancery. He had lately succeeded • in releasing two 'idles who had been imprisoned 14 years for contempt of that court. Both imprisonments were a scandal to the law, WAR-OFFICE, JUNE 16.

THE NEW ZEALAND GOLDFIELDS.—Tsars. Nichol son and Ridings, of Nelson, New Zealand, in their gold circular, dated the 14th of March, say :—" From the date of our last circular (26% ult.) to the 10th inst. the produce of the Ace ere goldfield is stated to be, at a moderate estimate, 150 ounces, of which over 50 ounces have reached Ni ton. The number of diggers at that date was about 150, one-third of whom had very re cently arrived. The average yield per man, therefore, gives good wages, and we have not heard of a gold field where success is more evenly distributed. From a gu ly on this side the great dividing ra n g e, and within a short distance of Motueka (a small settle ment within 18 miles by water from the town) 18 pennyweights of gold have this w eek been received. This sample is rounder than any other we have yet seen. It was in the neighbourhood l of the place where this sample was found t hat, during last win ter, the first indications of the existence of gold in the province were met with. From the Takaka Valley, which is also on the east side of the range, a few grains of gold have been brought into town, and a party has gone out to pr os p ect that countr y more fully. We have in these facts an evidence that the washings from both sides of the range, on the west at the Aorere, and on the east at the Takaka and Motueka, contain gold ; and this, taken in connexion with the highly auriferous appearance of the mountains, leads . to the rea sonable presumption that the whole range will be found gold-producing. It may be taken as a very favourable indication that, the nearer to the high mountains the diggers proceed, the larger become the particles of gold. Some men have sold to our correspondent at the Aorere an ounce taken from a gully about two miles nearer to the range, about which he writes that it is quite a dif ferent character of gold ; it is a much larger grain, and darker in colour.' " On the 20th of the same month they supplement the following :—" The advices to-day from our goldfields we may briefly state to be that success had been during the past week very general among the 300 men engaged in digging, though some had been alto gether unsuccessful, and that the yield for the week was over 200 ounces. Of this we have ourselves obtained more than one-half, but for the remainder were over- ' bidden, Our own purohases to date amount to 2GO oz." 981 9 --, S 9. 9 ,65 41 I 1011 100} i 112.1 11 A niii 101 100 i 83,1 41 31 43i i 921 2 la 71.1 70i 33i i 2a 1081 9 611 1 591 91 211 23 23 I 557 half-pay 83th t 3 be Captain, vice Brevet-Major E.

A CENTENARIAN.—Last week an old %voting, named Christina IbleLend or Inkster, was examined as a wit ness iu the Leith plied court against a person for steal ing various artichs of clothing from her house. She stated that she was 100 years and five months old. Notwithstanding her extreme old age, ehe gave her evidence in a clear, lucid manner. She is in possession of all her bodily and mental faculties, and looks as if she might live 10 or 15 years longer. She states she was burn in Orkney, where she resided till about 15 years ago, when she went ta Leith ; that she was married when she was 24 years of age, and that she bad seven children, all of whom are dead with the exception of one son, au ell man, living in Ca'tleness. Her circum stances are not by any means good, her chief support belie , ha f-a-erown a week from the parochial board. — Northern Ensign, AMERICAN 6TEABISHIP —The Vanderbilt has dissp p dated those who ex t elleted her to make one of the crack ocean passages, and the Niagara has succeeded in crose iug the oce.n in something over 18 dm s, during 14 of which she was under sail and steam. We understand that the astonishing velocity of the Niagara is explained by Capt. Hudon's very proper dread of losing his spars; we have no doubt that the Vanderbilt would have made as quick a trip as her friends predicted had not her en gineer been afraid of overheating her boilers or chafing her wheels. It is all right as it is ; and people who want to grumble will be so good as to hold their peace. We hope, however, we may inquire what becomes of the Collins steamer Blank, commanded by Captain Blank, which leaves on Wednesdays, at bl ink intervals, from the foot of Canal•street, and on beard of which passen g rs are earnestly renue,ted to have their luggage by an early hour in the morning. Is there any such steamer? Dues she , reall leave ? Or would the passenger who sent his luggage down in compliance with the advertisement find him-elf even blanker than the gallant ship and her notle commander, Captain -- ? It really looks as thou g h the control of the ocean was parting from us, and being securely vested in foreign nations. England is crowding the Atlantic with steamers of all sizes and model , from the (heat Eastern downwards. Her screws bid fair, at no distant period, to monopolise the traffic of the ocean, and, of course, in like manner to sweep it in case of war. France enters the lists with three Trans at!antic lines, to whica the State grants 14,000,000 fr. subvention, nearly $1,000,000 per annum per line. Even Sardinia, Spain, and Holland are on the track. We alone teem to be stationary. The policy of those Western and South-Western members of Congress who have ob tained from the United States millions of acres of land for the development of their country by means of rail roads bas always been to discountenance appropriat tions for ocean steamshipe, on the ground that they were monopolies—in their nature opposed to the public in terest. By this dog-in-the-manger system, while they helped themselves to all they wanted, they ruined the prospects of our steam marine. They induced the Post office and Congress to refuse appropriations in aid of steamers, and the consequence is the decay which we see. It will take some private energy and enterprise to raise the United States to the position she ought to occupy.—New York Herald. ELOPIMENT EXTBAORDINARY.—On Wednesday even ing, the 3d inst., a man and a woman arrived by rail at the Bridlington station, and made their way by omnibus to an inn in the Market-elace, where they took up their abode fur the night as husband and wife, stating, among other things, they had been married two month-, and had come to Bridlington to obtain work, the man as a labourer and the woman in any way she could be useful, especi ally in the stitching line. They had a large quantity of luggage, comprising female attire and abundance of pro visions, consisting of pies of various kinds and sizes, cheesecakes, tarts, ham, bread, a bottle of wine, &a. They ate, drank, and were very merry, and the good people of the inn seemed greatly taken with their new guests, who intimated their intention of remaining in that hospitable domicile for some time to come. At length to bed they went, but bow they slept deponent knoweth not. In the morning they reappeared, and in due time a sumptuous breakfast was prepared, to which the happy couple sat down ; but, as it is said, the course of eras love seldom runs smooth, so in this instance, for scarcely had the revelry begun, when le 1 in popped the woman's husband, accompanied by a policeman. Now, under such circumstances it is natural enough to expect that all the crockery on the table and the heads of the wife and her paramour would be smashed to atoms, or at least seriously injured : but no, the tender-hearted, fondly loving husband merely said, with the utmost sangfroid, " My dear, Ize come to tak thee hooano • w ill thou gang •To which his cars sposa as coolly replied, "No, never.' Yet all was peace and quietness ; the loving eouple continued doing ample justice to their luxurious repast, while the husband eat looking on and smoking his pipe. After breakfast some conversation followed, in which the unhappy husband used all the eloquence of which he was capable to induce his faithless spouse to return to his home, at Sutton, near Hull, promising, if she would return, he would freely forgive her and never again men tion her misconduct. She, however, seemed resolved to abide by her choice, and all entreaties, promises, and arguments appeared but a waste of words. At length threats were resorted to, and, seeing the strong arm of the law bef , re her, madame most reluctantly consented to go back, but declared most positively and d e t ann i,. nately that she would never live with him again; and before packing up for her departure shetold her paramour to meet her at Hull, in the parting of h igthey te h embra ced other most lovingly the presence nsba ei nd h ! Many other sayings and doings connected with this serio comic affair might have been given, some of which were very amusing and some of a , contrary character. The husband and wife appeared to be about 40 years of age each, and the lady's love about 26.—Yorkshireman.
