AT a time when the Capital of the country has been so libe rally applied. through the medium of Joint Stock Com paCom- panies, in promoting objects of great public interest and national utility, it is singular that no such measure has yet been adopted for supplying, under more favourable circumstances than at present exist, an article of such general and important use as Coal. The vastly increased consumption which of late years has taken place in large towns lying out of the Coal districts, and snore especially in the Metropolis, renders it an object of the first importance that these places sho'uld have the advantage of being steadily supplied not only with a sufficient quantity, hut that also of the best quality, and under the most favourable cir cumstances. it is a well ascertained fact that many of the Coal Mines in Northumberland, upon which the public have been hitherto mainly dependent, are now nearly exhausted, at least so far as regards their capability of supplying the better description of Coals, and it, therefore, become s important that consumers should not be reduced to the necessity of deriving their supply from that or any other quarter-where inferior Coal is only to he h a d, w h e n ample resources are in existence for providing an efficient supply with greater advantage. In the Southern Division of the county of Durham in parti cular, extensive fields of Coal of the very best description are found to exist, which as yet have been but partially worked; but it has row been determined to conduct several of these upon a system of more extended operation, and this determination is likely to be much aided by the recently established and newly projected lines of Railway, which will facilitate the communica tion between these Collieries and the present Shipping Ports of the Tees. In order to secure the full effect of these advantages, an d tin der the conviction that they will be best secured by a combina tion of energy and the employment of capital on an extended scale, it has been determined to establish "The Durham County Coal Company." That several of the Collieries now in the hands of private individuals are realising very large annual profits on the in vested capital is beyond question, and when the immensely increased and increasing coirsumption of Coal not only in Lon don but in the various other parts of this country which are dependent for their supply upon the Collieries in the North. and also the growing demand in Continental Ports, are consi dered, there appears no reason to doubt that these liberal profits will continue to be maintained. A sufficient number of Shares having already been subscribed for, the Provisional Committee of the Company have purchased several valuable and extensive Collieries, which are now in suc cessful operation, and the produce of which maintain a first-rate character in the London market. They have also purchased two other Collieries now in progress of completion, which in the course of a few months will be capable of producing for ship ment a large quantity of the best Wall's End Coals. The Directors have concluded all the necessary preliminaries for the formation of the Company and for actively working the the For the present it is the intention of the Directors to confine operations of the Company to the county of Durham, as g containi ngo h the most valuable description of Coal, and the vend h fSwareholcieelirswill produce the greatest return of profit to the The p ro all requertY will b e h e ld by T rus t ees f or th e C ompany , an d holders.isife arrangements made for the security of the Share- The CollieriesNvillhe under the superintendence of a Man ager, Engineer , and Viewer, all of high character and experi ence.

A considerable number of Shares having been allotted, and the deposits paid, under the original plan of establishing a Line of Steam Ships from London only to New York, the public will perceive that, in consequence of the increase of capital to meet the expense of the Line from Liverpool, a further issue of Shares will be made.

"These, 0 sinful pleasures, these are thy trophies—'tis thus co-operating with the foe of God and man, thou degradest hu man nature, and blasteth the opening prospects of human le- So said Professor Swedour, when he discovered his grand PANACEA for this Complaint, The "Hyyeair Pills." (then un known to the annals of medical discoverres,)as a specific reme dy to exterminate from the system, that intruder on the plea sures frequently imbibed in moments of inebriation, or thought lessness : never did a discovery excite' a greater sensation, it was sought after with avidity, anci used with undeviating success in the most minute and intricate cases of the delicate complaint, for the cure of which, they have been so long cele brated. The fame of these Pills throughout Germany, caused their speedy introduction into almost every country, and ad dresses were presented to the talented Professor Swedour who filled the chair at Leyden University, congratulatory of the cir cumstance. The certainty with which they were continually administered, can be attested by many thousands, in fact during the long continental war they were the inseparable companion and safeguard of the soldier, in all cases where the slightest suspicion of infection was entertained. What Medicine can be more appropriate than that which has given such general satis. faction. The Hygean Pills root out every particle of the insid uous poison, purifying in their progress the whole mass of fluids, they not only remove the disease, but renovate by their action the different functions of the bo'o:y—expelling the grosser hu mours and in a manner so mild and imperceptible as to con vince the most sceptical of their astonishing and unequalled powers, they neither contain mercury or any other mineral, and may be taken without the slightest suspicion of discovery— they require no restraint of diet, loss of time, or hindrance of business. The Hvgean Pills may be depended upon as a cer tain cure by persons of either sex, in all stages of a certain dis ease, and that without producing the least inconvenience. At any period when the slightest suspicion may exist, it will be well to have recourse to the Hygean Pills, for when taken be fore the disease has made its appearance it acts as a certain preventive, removing . the complaint effectually and secretly. l'he deplorable state in which many persons have been when visiting the proprietor from the use of mercury, renders it im peratively necessary to caution the public against that danger ous mineral when injudiciously administered.

SIR, —Having been informed that a relieving stopper for a ship's steering wheel, and which had answered exceedingly well, was to be seen on board of the new American ship Shakspeare, I was induced to visit that vessel for the purpose of inspecting the same, when to my, surprise I found it to have been pirated from my own invention, and for which the Society of Arts voted me their large silver medal. On inquiring from the master of the vessel, he assured me it answered every purpose for which it was intended; at the same time he told me it was an American invention, and for which a patent had been granted in that country, and that the Shakspeare was the first vessel that had been fitted with it, which, from the circumstance of her being a new vessel, could only be a few months since. The first vessel I fitted about two years ago was the ship Tyrian, of London, Captain Cunningham, now in the Prince's Dock, which vessel has made a voyage to the west coast of South America, returned to London, and from thence to this port. In giving publicity to these particulars, I must disclaim all inten tion of detracting from the merit of any invention which may -have originated with our American friends; but I feel that - I should be wanting in justice to myself, as well as to the country of which I am proud to call myself a native, if 1 allowed this or any other invention to be claimed by a party who had not suf ficient rectitude of feeling to a cknowledge it to be copied from myself or any of my countrymen. -1 am, sir, your obedient servant, H.

EXPERIENCE has fully proved that the 1 1 j ance is more satisfactorily conducted b than by private individuals. This fact is universally admitted with respect to Fire and Life Assurance, and since the alteration or the law, which now af fords the same protection to Marine Insurance, a growing favour is daily manifesting itself in this department towards the security and stability of such Associations. The general expansion of commerce and the transfer to the public of the Trade of the East India Company, who were al ways their own Underwriters, obviously make room for another Marine Insurance Company in addition to those which have been for some time so respectably and beneficially established in the metropolis. The Directors propose to introduce such clauses in their Po licies as will tend to prevent litigation and facilitate the speedy settlement of claims; and whilst they offer every practicable advantage and indemnity to the Assured, they feel confident that by a prudent and careful management they shall be able to afford ample remuneration to the Proprietors. The parties already interested in the Society securing at once a large connexion, it is proposed to commence business imme diately. The Directors reserve to themselves authority to frame such Rules and Regulations, to adopt such arrangements with re spect to Deed of Settlement, Charter, or Act of Parliament, and to alter or amend the terms of this Prospectus, as to them shall seem best for the general interest of the Society.

MEN interested in this Line of RA ILWAY, held at the residence of the Earl of Charletnont, 49, Grosvenor-square, The Earl of CHAI{LEMONT in the Chair, . . A Circular Letter from the Secretary to the Committee of the Dublin, Drogheda, and Navan Inland Line of Railway, the several l'atrons of this Company, was read. It was moved by Lord Acheson, and seco dby Lord Dufferin, and unanimously resolved, That it is the opinion of this Nleetin t "the fixed and determined principle" put forward in original Prospectus of the Company, "to have a comm iicatiou by the shortest, most level, and least expensive Line, between Dublin and Belfast, by Armagh, and that the different towns on each side of the Line should, if it be considered expedient, establish Branch Railways, "should not be abandoned, but steadily be kept in view in all the measures of the Company; it being of the greatest importance to preserve to the proposed Line the prominent characteristic stated in the Prospectus, that "it will complete the communication from the Metropolis of Ireland by Belfast to Scotland and the North of England, and will obviously he the course of conveyance for his Majesty's Mails, as well as for Passengers and Goods." It was moved by Cord Templemore, and seconded by Gusta vus Lambart, Esq., and unanimously resolved, That it is the decided opinion of this Meeting, that in any Railway communication between Dublin and the North of Ireland, it would be impracticable to adopt a Coastwise Line of Railway. That no Line can be satisfactory to the North of Ireland, as a trunk line, which does not pass to the West of Drogheda; and, consequently, that the Coastwise Line of Railway from Dublin to Drogheda, now under the consideration of a Com mittee of the House of Commons, can never be contemplated for this purpose. It was moved by Lord Acheson, and seconded by Lord Temnlemore, and unanimously resolved. That it would not be expedient fur this Company to bind itself to the adoption, as far as Duleek, of the Line of Railway proposed by the Promoters of the Inland Line from Dublin to Drogheda, until it be ascertained, by actual survey, under the direction of this Company, that such will be the best and shdrtest Line, with a view to effect the objects contemplated by them, of having the most direct Line from Belfast to Dublin by Armagh; and that such adoption will not be injuriou* - to this Company. It was also moved by Lord Charlemont, and seconded by B. Bolton Clive, Esq. M.P., and unanimously . resolved. Than it be recommended to the Provisional Committee to consider the propriety of contributing, out of the funds of this Company, to the assistance of the Proprietors of the proposed Inland Line to Drogheda and Navan, in their opposition to the Coastwise Line of Railway Bill. And that in the event of the Drogheda Coastwise Line of Railway Bill at present in the House of Commons being sent up to the House of Lords, it being recommended to the Provi sional Committee of this Company to take the necessary steps to be beard against it there.

ENGINEER—WiIIiam Bald, Esq. CONSULTING ENGINEER—George Stephenson, Esq. Office, Armagh. THE object of this Company is to make a Railway from the Ulster Railway, at Armagh, to Dublin, unconnected with any of the parties promoting the Railways from Drogheda to and now opposing each other in Parliament, (and one of them advocating a coast, and the other an inland line,) and to avoid either a line lengthened by several miles along the coast, or an inland line, prolonged by attempting to connect small towns, both of which would necessarily by attended with considerably increased expense, the fixed and determined prin ciple being to have a communication by the shortest, most level, and least expensive line between Dublin and Belfast by Ar magh, and_that the different Towns on each side of the line should, if itbe considered expedient, establish Branch Railways. To attain these objects, it is proposed that the line should commence at the northern extremity of the City of Dublin, cross the Royal Canal, proceed thence in a northern direction towards the village of Ratoath, West of Duleek, and cross the River Boyne, about five miles westward of the town of Droghe da, thence westward of Colon to Ardee, thence westward of Newtown Hamilton, straight to the city of Armagh, and there join the Belfast and Armagh Railway. An Act having already passed for the Belfast and Armagh Railway, Surveyors are now engaged taking in the Levels, and making tile Surveys, Maps, Sections, and Estimates necessary, in order to obtain an Act for the Armagh and Dublin undertak ing in the next session.—To defray these expenses, the Depo sits will be applied, as far as may be necessary, under the di rection of the Provisional Committee. The Committee, as they deem expedient or when called upon by holders of 1000 Shares, shall from time to time, call General Meetings of the Shareholders. But so soon as the number of Shares for each applicant shall have been allocated, a General Meeting of the Shareholders must be called, and permanent Di rectors, committee, auditors, secretary, treasurer, &c. appointed. General Meetings to be called by advertisements in the public papers, giving at least ten days' notice. Shareholders resident. at a distance greater than ten miles from Armagh may vote by proxy; one vote to be allowed for each live Shares, but no one Shareholder to have more than twenty votes, though possessing more than one hundred Shares. Communications have been had with the great landed propri etors, and others along the Line; and the undertaking has been so well received as to give every reason to expect not only as sent, but co-operation and support. The proposed line will complete the communication from the metropolis of Ireland, by Belfast, to Scotland and the North of England, and will obviously be the course of conveyance for his Majesty's Mails, as well as for Passengers and Goods. Applications for Shares to be made, in Belfast, to the Ulster Railway-office, Fountain-street; in Armagh, to the Secretary, or any of the Provisional Committee; •in Dublin, at the offices of tiro Solicitors, and at Messrs. 80n..x, Low, Piss and Co.'s; in London, to H. and J.

Capital £200,000. in 10,000 Shares of £2O each. TH E object of this C o mpany is to establish a St ea m Com munication between the Ports of Liverpool and New 1 ork. Its projectors have long entertained the most . ifguine opi nions as t o th e success likely t o a tt en d su an enterprize, when liber a lly b ac k e d by pu bli c patronage • and this, the pre sent prospectus , it i s confidently hoped ill be the means of inducing, for it i s a t ru i sm , that with t its fostering aid all e, . such associations must signally fail in the attainment of their object. Twenty years ago the idea was derided of successfully effect ing an intercourse by Steam between this country and Ireland. Nevertheless, we are now in a position of exposing the fallacy of so concentrated a view, as science, aided by wealth, perse verance, and enterprise have prevailed, and the existing esta blishments are in the most prosperous condition. The assertion, then, may fairly be hazarded, that Steam Na vigation, in the really efficient form it has assumed in the pre. sent day, is capable in an eminent degree of developing the best resources of those fertile, densly populated, and commer cially important districts of North America, (to which the ope rations of this Company will be directed,) by affording that superior facility of intercourse between them and Great Bri tain, for which Steam in other parts of the world has become so justly celebrated, and which, alike to the Merchant and the Emigrant, must be a matter of the most paramount interest. The projectors are justifiable in stating, (inasmuch as it is the expressed opinion of scientific and experienced men,) that, with suitably constructed and powerful vessels, the run out to New York may, in ordinary weather, be accomplished in about Sixteen days. So quick a run by other means, it is believed, would be without a parallel. An ample supply of Fuel may be always calculhted upon, as the great improvement lately introduced in the engineer and boiler department (the invention of the scientific Mr. Hall) has caused a most extraordinary decrease in the consumption of that very important article. In order to disseminate as widely as possible the advantages likely to accrue from such an association as this, well, respect ably, and spiritedly conducted,—a prominent feature in its for mation has been, that of dividing the shares into the moderate amount of Twenty Pounds each ; thus, not . precluding the tradesman or small capitalist from investing in an establish ment which cannot but augment the commercial laurels of this •enterprising community. The Company will be considered as constituted, as soon as bona fide applications to the extent of 5000 shares shall haste been made. _ _ Five Shillings per Share will be required upon installment; and, in one week after Directors have been chosen, it will be necessary for Proprietors to pay £2 per Share.into the Union Bank, to the credit of the Company. The 'remainder of the calls to be made as the direction may deem expedient, in suing not exceeding £2 per Share, and at periods of not less than six weeks between each call. _ . The management of the Company shall be intrusted to Six Directors, to be chosen by the Proprietors. Three of the Di rectors to retire annually, but to be eligible for re-election. The holding of Fifty Shares to constitute the eligibility of a Director, and Auditors shall not be deemed competent to act as Directors. _ Y 'l 'he usual means to secure Proprietors by the restriction of liability will be adopted. A Provisional Committee will be formed immediately, to whom all applications for Shares must be addressed, care of Mr. JOHN CHEYNE, Solicitor, Lord-street. (sz?'

Stn,—lt appears that our dissenting council are not content with refusing the rector's application with regard to the schools, but that they must add a gratuitous insult to that refusal. The'clergy and public are informed that the church of England is a SECT t. that it does not belong, as it professes to do, to that universal body which is connected by a profession of the same great catholic verities, and an adherence to the primitive stan dards of belief, but that it deserves to rank only among those ephemeral sections from that body which are daily springing up around us, maintaining every conceivable variety of error ! ! Now mark the argument they would convey under this false insinuation, that the established religion - of - the country is a sect, and that her clergy have no higher authority to teach than the self-appointed sectarian ministers. The church, they would say, is one sect among some fifteen or twenty different sects in the town, holding various contradictory religious opinions ; therefore she is not snore deserving of public regard than any of the rest. And though the corporation schools are the great charity schools of the town, built with public money, for the purpose of educating the children of the poor in the principles of the established religion of the country—though they have hitherto been conducted upon the national, or Bell's system, with a view rather to the spiritual than the intellectualimprove omit of the children—though they have always been Sunday as well as day schools, and have been under the constant visitation of the clergy—notwithstanding all this, we will not say they scruple to insult the religion of the country, by perverting these schoorg from their original intention, and turning them into juvenile mechanic's institution; instead of seminaries. of mural and religious education. Ido maintain that the corporation, in adopting the late report of the education committee, and their recommendation to try experiments with these schools, (experi ments which they well know must be tantamount to turning the clergy out of the schools)—l do maintain that, by that resolu tion, as well as by the resolution of Thursday, they have de liberately insulted the churchmen of this town. Nay more, they have insulted the religious feeling of the whole body of the working classes. Because the church is a sect, and because sects differ in their religious opinions, it is proposed to exclude religion altogether front the great charity schools of the town, so far as it is to _Arm any part of the systematic course of instruction!, Truly this is an easy' ray of getting over a difficulty, where men are agreed that religion is of minor importance in a people's education. But are the people of this opinion ? Can Mr. Rathbone find ten families, even among the dissenting poor, who would not pi efer to give their children an education based upon Cilrith . ,l7t principles ? The only apology for the audacious experiments that are threatened to the christian schools of the town, is the implied unpopularity of the doctrines of the church. But I deny that they are unpopUlar with the mass of the people. The method ists, who are the largest dissenting body, approve of them. No dissenters have ever been refused admittance to the schools, and dissenting parents do not refuse to send their children. If, as is the case in Ireland, four-fifths of the people were opposed to the established religion. there might be some plausibility for the introduction of the Irish system. But, in this town, nineteen , twentieths of the whole population of the working classes have no objection to the doctrines and worship of the church. Can Mr. Rathbone find five poor fatuities within half-a-mile of either of the schools, except papists, who would object on the score of their religion to send tneir children to be educated there? Can the dissenting Mr. Rathbone find even inie family within the same distance possessing his own religious views, to warrant him iu setting himself up as religious dictator among the people, and attempt to thrust the ministers of Christ from that position in which they are placed, not only by the church of Christ. but by the laws of this country.—Yours, A FRIEND OF THE PEOPLE, AND AN ADVOCATE FOR AN ENLIGHTENED SYSTEM OF EDUCA TION, BASED UPON RELIGION. DISTRESS OF THE HAYMAKERS.-It has been aheart-rending right during the past week to travel in the suburban parts of the metropolis, particularly o❑ the ❑orthern roads, where hun dreds of English and Irish - mowers and haymakers, with their numerous families, are grouped about the roads iu the most ab ject poverty. The severity and length of the winter, and the present precarious state of the weather, have so delayed the commencement of the harvest, that scarcely a farmer about town has ventured to cut his grass; and hence shoals of Irish haymakers and English inoWers, who have arrived near town in quest of employment, and failing to find it, have been re duced to a d rplorirble state of privation. Every passenger of respectable appearance, %%briber on foot, horseback, or vehicle, is accosted by a knot of supplicants, of all ages and denomina tions, urging their claims in the most pitiable terms. At night they take up their abode under hay-stacks, in stables, and hedges. JUNE 17 18.76! Empertal ParliantEnt. HOUSE OF LORDS.—MONDA Y. LORD LYNDHURST presented a petition from the inhabitants, of Blackburn, praying their lordships to a dh ere t o th e amend ments made in the Irish municipal bill. The petition was signed by between 2000 and 3000 persons. His l o rd s hip pre sented a simil a r p e titi on f rom Ipswich. ECCLESIASTICAL. COMMISSIONERS. The Earl of RIPON having moved as long ago as May 6th,. for an account of the expenditure of the ecclesiastical' commis sioners for Ireland, wished to know why the return was not before the house ? Viscount D UNC ANN ON replied that a part of the papers were on the table. CH ANCERY BILL. The LORD CHANCE", LOR, moved the second reading of a bill for the better administration of justice in the Court of Chancery, and a second bill for the establishing an improved appellate jurisdiction in the House of Lords. The learned lord spoke at great length in support of these measures, the chief object of wh►ch were separation of the judicial from the political functions of the Lord Chancellor; the noble lord proposed that the Lord High Chancellor and Keeper of the Great Seal should in fu ture preside in the House of Lords as Speaker and as Chief Judge when the house sat as a court of appeal—the Chancellor was also to preside over the sitting of the privy council to hear colonial appeals; in the court of chancery it was proposed that there should be another judge, under the title of Lord Chief Justice of the High Court of Chancery, who should hear original causes but not appeals from the decikons of the other judges in equity. Loan LYNDHuRsT opposed the bill, contending that the pro posed separation of the duties of the Lord Chancellor would destroy the character and utility of that office and prove injuri ous to that house. Lord Lyndhurst concluded by moving that the bills be read a second time that day six months. - The motion was carried; 29 voting for the second reading, and 94 for the amendment, leaving his Majesty's ministers in a ma.: jority of 63. Adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—MONDA Y. The Speaker took the chair at twelve o'clock, at which time there was a full attendance of the members on both sides of the house, there being the case of Sir Fred. Trench and Mr. Rigby Wason to be heard; which, being a case of privilege, would take precedence of all other business. PRIVILEGE. The Sergeant at Arms having informed the Speaker that Sir Frederick Trench and Mr. Rigby Wason were in his custody, the Speaker directed him to produce his prisoners, who, on their appearance in the house, were ordered to take their seats. After after a very long discussion both members having explained and given the required pledge that they would neither challenge nor accept a challenge from each other, they were discharged ant of custody. IRISH CORPORATIONS BILL. The house then proceeded to the order of the day for the fur ther consideratio❑ of the lords' amendments to the Irish Muni cipal Corporations bill. Sir ROBERT PEEL wished to know whether the amendments the honourable and learned member meant to move, were amendments upon the lords' amendments, and whether they were printed ? They could do no more than deal with the lords' amendments. Mr. 0' LoG H LEN said the amendments were printed, and that it was intended to move the re-introduction of the clauses which had been rejected by the lords, so altering some as to meet the limited number of corporations. Mr. S. CR A WFORD wished to know from the government what would be the proper time for bringing forward a motion for in cluding all the corporate towns in this bill which were in the first one. He gave notice that he would divide the house upon that question. He must also protest against that clause which raised the franchise in small towns to £lO. Col. SI RTHOR P wished to know what was doing. He was bound to suspect every measure or amendment proposed by the other side. Clauses to 31 were then restored without amendment. On the next clause being proposed, Sir ROBERT PEEL said that this proceeding was utterly un intelligible. After the debate which had taken place, and the decisive majority that had followed, be did not intend opposi tion of a vexatious character. But in a bill of such importance they ought to see what they were doing. He hoped the amend ments they were to have proposed to them would be printed, so that the.. might see what they were doing. Lord *JOHN RUSSELL said . they were now merely restoring some of the original clauses. A great number of the original clauses of the bill were re, stored as amendments upon the lords' amendments. At three o'clock the Speaker adjourned the house to five o'clock. SECOND SITTING. Lord F. EGERTON brought up the report of the Liverpool Dock Committee. He gave notice that the report be talon in to further consideration to•morrow week. NORTH AMERICAN BANKING COMPANY. This . bill, on the motion of Mr. Robinson, was read a second time. NEW WRIT. A new writ for the Southern Division of Warwickshire, was moved for, to supply a vacancy occasioned by the death of E. R. C. Sheldon, Esq., deceased. MARRIAGE, &C., REGISTRATION RILL This bill was passed through a committee on the motion of Lord John Russell. THE MARRIAGES BILL. The house went into a committee on this bill, and agreed to the first 28 clauses, when the chairman reported progress, and asked leave to sit again. Adjourned. lIOUSE OF L Lord Berners toelt the oaths and ORD S his seat.—TeesnAr. UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE. The Marquis of CAM nEx presented a petition, signed by upwards of 300 members of the University of Cambridge, praying that a clause might be inserted in the English municipal act amendment bill, au thorising the Vice-Chancellor of the University to be appointed a magistrate of the borough. The `noble marquis gave notice that he should move a clause to that effectwhen the bill was in committee. RAILROADS. In answer to a questi on put by the Duke of WELLINGTON; to the effect of asking whether governmei.t was now prepared to, bring for ward some general proposition on the subject of preventing railroads from becoming monopolies. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE' said that ht; was prepared to say th a t government was not prepared with any general plan at the present moment ; but at the same time that he admitted this he was prepared to go a little beyond the mere answer of the question, and to inform the noble duke and the house that in the course of a very few days some bills would be brought under the notice of the other House of Parliament upon the subject. The Duke of WELLINGTON said as it appeared theta measure - was in eontemp4dion on the part of government upon the subject to which he had before directed the attention of the house, he thought it would be most desirable that the bills which were now in progress should have the principle applied to them that was intended to be applied generally, and with that view he would read to th e i r l or d s hi ps a c l ause which had been prepared to be inserted in all the hills now in pia:. gress. He would move to have the clause printed, so that noble lords might be in possession of its contents. On Thursday next he should move to have the clause printed, so that noble lords might be in pos session of its contents. On Thursday next he should move that it be inserted in the bill which stood for the third reading, and of which notice had been given by a noble marquis (the Marquis of Clanri carde.) Their lordships would have time to consider the clause be tween to-day and Thursday. The noble duke then read the clause, to this effect : By virtue of th e powers and provisions of the general. —" act for the regulation of railroads which shall be passed, for the se curity and advantage of the public, within the present sestion, all railroad bills now.in progress to be governed." The clause was then ordered to be printed. The Dublin police bill was read a second time. The bishopric of Durham bill was read a third time and passed. The Scotch universities bill was read a second time. MUNICIPAL CORPORATIONS. The house having resolved itself into a committee of the whole house on the municipal corporations act amendment bill. The Marquis CAMDEN proposed a clause to be added to the bill making the Vice-Chancellor of Cambridge justice of the peace for the time being. The Earl of RADNOR opposed the clause, because the Vice-Chan-' cellor assumed to hi mself the sole right of licensing ale-houses, in the university.

GLADSTONE presented a MM petition. fro T m the borough of Leices ter in favour of the Lords' amendment for abolishing all corporations in Ireland, and praying that a similar measure might be passed for abolishing all corporations in England and Wales—(cheers and laughter) —as tending to a more proper administration of the corporate funds, and to the recce and tranquillity of the towns. • POST-OFFICE—FRANCS. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, in answer to a question put by Mr. Hume, stated that the treaty with France. as to the.comninni catkin by post, had been signed, and would be forthwith laid on the table of the house. PRISON OF THE HOUSE OF COMMONS. Col. TRENCH said he had to bring under the notice of the house a cause of complaint, and it so happened that the object of the com plaint was no other than the person who filled the chair of that house. (Laughter.) He had to complain ghat with respect to the new prison lately erected fur committals under the Speaker's warrants, most in adequate arrangements had been made. (Laughter.) It was his for tune to have been the first inhabitant of that prison—(great laughter) —and the fault he found with it—(renewed laughter)—did not refer to• its not being plastered, but to its entire construction—(roars of laugh ter)—the rooms being so situated,vsith respect .to ..sae another, as to expose parties to the most unpleasant inconvenience, if it should so happen that two persons should be confined there together. It was a mere accident that prevented the hon. member for Ipswich from being confined there—(laughter) —at the very time that he was himself ay inhabitant of it—the hon. member having been comfortably at home in bed, instead of being at Calais, as the Sergeant -at-Arms fancied. (Laughter.) Even were it otherwise, he was sure the hon. member would, under the circumstances of which he complained, have acted • towards him, with that courtesy which he certainly should have. evinced towards him. (Hear. hear.) But had the hon. zneinber for Ipswich become an inmate of the place, they would have bee n u n d e r the necessity of passing freque n tly through each other's apartments ; —(laughter)—the inconvenience of which he should have particularly. felt, as, at the time, he had the misfortune to labour under severe in... disposition. (Roars of laughter.) He had, however, bee n spared 'Sri% • embarrassing inconvenience, hut it might so happen that two hon. members, not so courteously disposed, and of much more violent feel ings towards one another, should he confined together in these apart-. ments, from which the most unpleasant inconveniences mi g ht follow. (Laughter.) He was little skilled in architecture, but he was suffi ciently acquainted with it to know that the apartments in question were most inconvenient, and he thought it would be , of. advantage to hon. members that their constuction should he improved. (Laughter.), Indeed, from the spirit he saw latterly infused into the debates ottliat house, he apprehended it would be necessary for the Speaker, whose duty it was to see that its laws were maintained ; to provide a far' greater number of cells. (Roars of laughter.) In making these ob servations, he was on his part perfectly disinterested—(laughter)--as it was his intention in future so to conduct himself as.not to.coistra . vene Mr. Speaker's jurisdiction. (Laughter.) RAILWAYS. The Tremouth railway and h ar b our b ill and the Manchester an d Cheshire junction railway bill were each a d vance d a stage. SOUTH AMERICAN, INDEPENDENCE. Lord MAIION inquired of the Foreign Secretary whether any result s had attended the negociations, at M a d r id , regard i ng the recogn i tion 0 4 • the independence of South America Lord PaLstaRSTON replied in the negative, but at the same time ob served that thou •h the negotiations had not originated with the British government, its best efforts would not be wanting, could they be use fully exerted. .
