THE DAY'S NEWS, In the House of Lords, yesterday, Lord Teyn ham's motion in favour •of manhood suffrage and vote by ballot was, of course, negatived without a division. Several bills were forwarded. In the House of Commons, in reply to several questions, Lord John Russell said that when her. Majesty was advised to dissolve Parliament, the dissolution extended to Scotland and Ireland as a matter of course.' The dissolution was altogether a prerogative of the Crown. According to prac tice, a dissolution would follow the passing of any bill for the reform of the representation, but what advice would be given to her Majesty on that point he could not then state. Sir J. Ferguson moved the adjournment of the debate. Colonel Dickson protested against the conduct adopted towards Ireland in the matter. Sir G. Grey denounced the conduct of the opposition. Lord J. Manners remarked that it was in the opinions of members on the Ministerial side that the Govern ment found its chief opposition. The Lord- Advocate opposed the motion for adjournment. Mr. Bright implored the House to pass a measure which was in every way safe and moderate. Lord Palmerston reviewed the course adopted towards the Reform Bill. He hoped that the bill would, nevertheless, be carried to a successful conclusion before the end of the session. Mr. Disraeli argued at much length that the fault of delay lay at the door of the Government and their partisans. After some remarks in reply from Lord John Russell, the House divided, when the' numbers were : For adjourning the debate, 248 ; against, 269 --- majority against, 21. • Mr. Baillie Cochrane moved that the House should adjourn. The division was immediately taken, when the motion for adjournment was again negatived by 267 to 222—majority, 43. The motion for adjournment was, however, renewed, and, Lord Palmerston assenting, the debate was adjourned to Monday next. The orders for the second reading of the Scotch and Irish reform bills were discharged. The other business was disposed of, and the House adjourned at 3 3 An English steamer had arrived at Marsala, from Queenstown, conveying 60 volunteers, 4,000 rifles, and £l,OOO for Garibaldi. Nothing positive is known on the subject of the armis tice. According to some despatches it is pro longed indefinitely, while others state it is only to the 7th inst. The Malta Observer, of June 2nd, says it was the Neapolitan general that asked an armistice, in order to bury the dead. General Garibaldi, and his adjutant Turr, at once proceeded on board H.lll.'s ship Hannibal, where a conference of all the superior officers was held, and an armistice of 24 hours was agreed on. Subsequently, the Neapolitan general asked that it should be extended to three : days, which Garibaldi not only accepted, but offered to prolong it for three weeks. We learn by way of Geneva; that immediately after the annexation of Nice and Savoy, France will address a note to the powers notifying the fact, and demanding a reply as a recognition of of the annexation by Europe. Sir. Henry Buiwer informed the English mer cantile body, at a levee at Constantinople, held May the 24th, that he had been requested by the French Ambassador, M. De Lavalette, to inform the English merchants, that he never said what had been represented ; and that, far from express ing any fears, he had, on the contrary, encouraged the French merchants to continue their operations, provided they were, as he doubted not, of a legitimate mercantile and industrial nature. The Paris correspondent of the Times, in a review of the alleged tendencies of France to war, says the nation is indifferent even to the question of the Rhenish frontier. A war with England would perhaps be popular for a few weeks, but assuredly on condition of its being invariably successful, and as short as possible-- shorter even than the campaign in Lombardy. The EmPeror of the French is not one of those who believe that we have degenerated. Any struggle between Great Britain . and France must be a struggle for life or death,—not a campaign, but a war perhaps equal in duration to the last, in which all Europe would probably be involved. France is not likely to rush into Such a war merely to satisfy a faded rancour. The writer is incredulous as to the desire of the French people and army to be constantly at war, and particularly at war with England. The war with Russia was viewed' with indif ference by the nation, and the war with Austria Was regarded with marked dissatisfactio n at the commencement, and with disappointment at the end. The people know what ruin would follow from a war with a country like England. From Frankfort, we learn that the French Government has requested the Belgian Cabinet to make proposals, with the object of concluding a commercial treaty. A private letter, received from a French soldier in . Africa, speakd : * a ;fteh ,.. revolt among the Arabs, :which doff' not !air ‘l.. to 15. , _-ite been allowed ib...tranigh . ....4hroftii ',tb,c‘ Paris press. s t The 'Araks 'ar:Paii-10,t6 44 fir, - from having 1. ,, .., ‘.. . . . . be lit it awed to submisision pr to have lost conti •.. i : slence,,for they have assumed , the offensive. The Campaign, it is 'hoped,will be terminated before - the intinth of August. Intelligence has been received of the safe arrival, at Singapore, of all the gunboats which sailed from England in the beginning of last November. The mail steamer Fulton arrived at South ampton With New York advices to-the 26th ult. The particulars of her'news will be found else where. Accounts from Newfoundland state that Cap tain hell was .about. to commence the raising of the American end of the Atlantic cable, in order that a complete examination of its condition may he made. Mr. U. F. Varley, the well-known electrician, will superintend the investigation. The Adverti s er says that in. the event:of Mr. Mackinnon's amendment being carried, the effect of which amendment would be to postpone the Reform Bill indefinitely, Lord J. Russell and Mr. Gladstone will resign. In the assumed con tingency, it is understood that Lora Clarendon would return to the Foreign Office, and Sif doine wall Lewis to the office .of Chancellor of the Exchequer.' *-' • • , , A Cork correspondent says :—" The enlist ment for the : Papal army is increasing very much in this locality: On .TucSdaY evening no fewer than 350 persons were enrolled at the North Chapel, and it is known that many more are about to offer theniselves. The enlistmeiit in this county has gone on more successfully . than was expected, and more men have joined than accommodation can be found for. A telegram has, in consequence, been received from England, directing the agents in this country to stop recruiting for the present, as there were no means of transport, and the places of rendezvous in London were quite full." . The report, was issued yesterday of the select committee appointed td . inquire into the opera tion and effect of the Corrupt Practices Preven- tion Act, 1834. They recommend its renewal for five years, subject to a great number of additions and alterations, which are enumerated in the report. • • - Mr. Cobdela has written a letter on the question' of privilege raised by the Lords' rejection of the bill for the repeal of the paper duty The hon. gentleman, of course, strongly condemns the step taken by the Veers, In the year 1859, 939 vessels, of 185,970 tons, Were built and registered in the United Kingdom. This is above the average of the years 1815-54, but less than in any year since 1854 ; less than in 1858 by 61 vessels, and the tonnage by 22,110 tons; but the fact is that in 1855, a very great increase of shipbuilding began, and that extraor dinary increase is not now maintained. A public meeting in furtherance of the objects of the Early-closing Association, and as specially tending thereby to the extension of the Rifle Volunteer movement, has been held at Saint James's-hall, London. Lord Elcho, in rising to introduce the business of the meeting, expressed a wish before doing so that he should be.. allowed to tender an apology for occupying such a position. His only apology was the connection between the early-closing movement and the Rifle Volunteer Movement. The necessity of relaxation from labour and of occasional half-holidays had been so frequently urged by the association, that it did not require to be proved or to be dilated on at any length. Alluding to the restriction of the hours a labouk, he remembered, about the year 1811, Wlin first he entered Parliament, Sir James Graham, the then Home Secretary, was making the greatest, exertions in opposition to the Earl of Shaftes bury, to prevent such a restriction, and pre saging the worst consequences. Since then, however, on the passing of the Bleaching Bill, the former gentleman 'stated that the opinions which he had previously expressed with reference to the ten hours' movement had been unfounded, and that the amount of labour had not decreased thereby. Mr. Roebuck also expressed ii similar change of opinion. The speaker next read ex tracts of correspondence froth Edinburgh, where the movement of the Saturday half-holiday had been generally adopted, testifying that no incon venience or loss accrued to the masters by the plan. He intimated, also, that Mr. Locke, of Regent-street, and other representatives of West end houses were favourable to the movement, .believing that its results . would be beneficial to employer and employed. Lord Brougham proposes to alter the law, so that any person accused of certain crimes shall be allowed, if he thinks fit to give evidence on his own behalf; that the wife of any man shall be at liberty to give evidence on behalf of her husband, and the husband on behalf of his wife ; and that no person, either in civil or criminal cases, shall be protected from answering as to matters which would tend to degrade him or render' him to punishment. , But his lordship's bill 'provides that no evidence so given shall be used on any i • proceedings against the person giving it, except in proceedings against him for peijury upon the very answer. We are glad, however, to see that he does not propose that a husband or a wife should, in criminal matters, give evidence the one against the Other. Notwithstanding the appeals recently made in the House of Commons, in behalf of the persons implicated in the corrupt proceedings at the late Wakefield election, criminal informations have been filed against Mr. W. I-L - Leatham 'ancl7 , Mr. Charlesworth, the two candidates, and six of their leading supporters or agents. Writs were served upon them on Tuesday. f Lieutenant-General Sit William Chalmers,C.B. and died on' Saturday last, at his 'Seat, near Dundee. The deceased general was born in 1787. Soon after completing hissixteenth year he entered the army. During his 'services in Portugal and Spain he had six horses killed or wounded under him in action. During the period he was engaged in active service, he was present in 17 engagements, six of them general actions, exclusive of sieges. The- gallant deceased .was present at 'Waterloo: . At . that batth) he had three horses shot under him. Ho was also at the capture of Paris. The deceased veteran had received the silver war medal and eight clasps for Barrosa, Ciudad Rodrigo, Badajbz, Salamanca, Vittoria, Pyrenees, St: Sebastian, and Nivelle.* A feW days ago, at an early hour . in the morn ing, two desperate burglars, named Stuart and Williams, confined in Cardigan Gaol, endeavoured to strangle the turnkey, preparatory, no doubt, to effecting their escape. ' The turnkey's cries, however, aroused the governor and his wife, who gallantly came to his rescue, the one armed with a sword, and the other with a revolver. After a show of resistance, the burglars resigned them selves to their fate. It should be stated that Williams, under the name of Jack Grant, once fought Tom Sayers, and was vanquished by him. The Stock Exchange Committee's report on Pullinger's case leaves• £152,840 to be accounted for,_a great part of which, probably, went upon the turf, and which it would be difficult to trace, since the amount embezzled included .63,100 in h is announced that tip grand review of the Volunteers by her Majesty is fixed for the 30th instant. The commanding officers of the Metro politaTipnr2s appear 'fo be 'mating great efforts to prepare their men for the august occasion. 'TIS TAIRTY YEARS AGO.. Oun earliest ide . as of Reform are associated with the'lnemory of one of the most exciting periods of our national . histOry,—of a time when the whole body of ; the people had been roused to the utmost degree.,of enthusiasm, and. was inspired with a firm deterniination to carry the Bill, the whole Bill, and nothing but the Bill. If those times were fraught with the dangers of precipitate and unwise action on the part of the multitude, they were to a great extent redeemed by the noble testimony then borne in favour of earnest pa triotism, and all the exalted virtues which are the natural inheritance of a great people. The great Reforni Bill of '32 having at last received the royal assent, the enthusiasm of the people seemed to know no bounds. The originators and pro moters of the measure were popularly idolised, and the fruits to arise from its enactment were esti mated as likely to be so exuberant and plentiful, that the expression of the general joy was limited only by the exhaustion of every possible and available variety of public jubilation. Since then, nearly thirty years have gone ! during which those who were then but children have attained the years of maturity,—*we hope also of discretion,—'-and those who were in the prime of life, have grown old and grey-haired. Nearly thirty years have gone ! with all their cares and pleasures, leaving behind, to those who survive, only the memory of many who were .then an ornament to life and the pride Of the nation, not less confided iu by loving hearts at home, than esteemed and cherished by • the general mind. Nearly thirty years have gone ! during which many changes have come o'er the spirit of our dream in political as well as in social life, and sometimes we . are alniost inclined to breathe a sigh for the good old times before those degenerate days began to dawn upon England, and to wish them back again. 'Tis but a passing weakness. We are now taught, to think that the olden time, beforeßefortnßills 'were dreamt of, was a wretched epoch—unworthy of an intelligent people—cha racteristic only of a nation of bondsmen. Nearly thirty years have gone! and another Reform Bill is in the most critical .stage of its existence; or rather is just about to be gathered to its fathers —to pass away into the limbo of abortive and ill devised schemes which the author of the present measure has produced so plentifully ! We have acquired a habit of looking for a new Reform Bill at the commencement of each session, that we may kill it by neglect, or kick it out in disgust before the session is over. We . ought to he a happy people if apparently endless trafficking in Reform Bills can make a people 'rejoice ! The habit may be a good or a bad one, but we have learned it ; and now we have our new Reform Bill every year as a matter of course, and we enjoy it as we would a cigar, until it is done, when we throw it away and look for another. In Reform Bills, as in the luxury we have mentioned, tastes vary ; some preferring a dry whiff, while others incline towards the enjoyment of the weed in a more luscious appli cation of the narcotic.. The annual Reform Bills answer many purposes during their ephemeral existence. Our politicians use them as gentle men do their canes, or ladies their fans ; and like these they vary in style and mode accord ing to the " fashions for the season." Great Reform ,Bills are no longer in fashion—we now prefeetliem little : and the latest has been called .par excellence "the little Reform Bill." People speak playfully of it as Grandpa RUSSELL'S sickly little bantling ; and there are many people soft enough to feel for its parent in the prospect of another bereavement. But this is a mistake, of course, for it is well known he never cared much for the "little 'un," and scarcely expected or desired that it should cut its back-teeth. People were wont thirty years ago' to shout and bully about " the bill," but the, fashion is now widely different, and such a demonstration would be considered an unpardonable piece of vulgarity. Every attempt to check the progress of the bill of '32 seemed likely to lead to instant revolution, and people swore terrible oaths as to the conse quencea of its being much longer delayed. Now a-days everybody is impatient to see the little brat kicked under the table. It has had its session, and is not that enough ? It has become a bore, and people wonder why it is not strangled out of the way, once and for all, i.e. for the session ; for, of course, we shall look for a new one again when the season comes round. Is Parliamentary Reform then altogether a dream of the past, a toy of the present, an inter minable quantity—a mere " repeater" for the future ? Is our system of popular representation perfect, and incapable of further improvement ? Or is it not the general belief that now is the time for a sound measure of reform ? Is it not universally admitted that there ought to be an extension of the franchise, and some redistri bution of seatS"? If it be so—and it is not to be denied—who are the authors of this despicable system of trifling with the feelings and wants of the country, and by what terms can We depict the hideousness of the conspiracy to cheat us out of these'nitional requirements? 'Those factious and unpatriotic Whigs " Palter with us in a double sense, Keeping the word of promise to the ear, And break it to the hope." The course pursued by the Conservatives, 'although it may have been susceptible of improvement in detail, has been a very model of consistency and honour, as compared with the paltry shuffling of Lord JOHN RUSSELL and other sham reformers. We all remember well the programme Lord JOHN RUSSELL gave :when in Opposition—how Stern and strict he was as to the only conditions on which the represen :tation of the country ought to be reformed—and how heroicallihe challenged a verdict from the House of Commons that led to a dissolution. We -remember well how, when speaking under the grave responsibility of an expectant Minister, he defined very minutely the qualifications for the franchise—how he urged on a vote adverse to Lord DERBY'S Government, and appealed to the opinion of the country in his own favour. The high-toned -programme with which the present session was commenced is also fresh in our minds. Is it possible that the high Reform Policy which 'destroyed a Ministry, dissolved a Parliament, and the discussion of which has occupied the best part of another session, has already melted away ? Is it true that Lord JOHN RUSSELL, after all his fanfaronade in Opposition, after `having enjoyed the most ample opportunities for maturing his schemes.in the advantageous position of a ;Minister of the Crown, and after coming forward with the most• pompons pretensions of definitively legislating on the subject this session, has entirely broken down, and succeeded only in 'proving his own incompetency and inconsistency? Alas ! it is so. He has . himself proved to a demonstration that he does not in any way con template the achievement of the policy he himself 'has recommended. He now forces us to believe that Mr. DISRAELI spoke prophetically when he warned him last year, that he had been exer cising from the first on this subject a sinister and a fatal influence upon the fortunes of his party and upon his own reputation—that he had been ' induced to recommend a policy, out of office, which he would tad. it impossible to accomplishas a Minister. Has not this solemn warning realised? ierd JOHN RUSSELL has' hazarded t;he. safety .of the . c ountry in order, not even ,that he may realise a fair reputation as a reform er, but that he might, perchance , carry out—in a m anne r ta__e—an t a h n t cl iti ' , b p y means .andwh w ic h h ich are h 7 have to to h d l ignify unwise, an immature, and, even now, we will say, a factious policy. The country must feel assured that whatever he may have said of the working classes, he has never had any conviction of the absolute and imperial necessity of the measure he has brought forward ; neither has he ever believed that, if carried, it would accomplish or fulfil its purpose. Has he not virtually assured the House that the Government has no settled policy—no conviction of the necessity of the measure—no confidence in its provisions ? Why, his very last utterances on the subject in Parliament *ere a confessinti. that, 'beside's:a once giving up all reform for Scotland and for Ireland, for at least another year, he is prepared to give up the very marrow of his bill,—that he is prepared to change even the proposed rate of franchise— that very rate which, when in opposition last year, he so solemnly asserted was absolutely indispensa ble, and by the triumphant assertion of which he climbed into office ! With all these marvellous inconsistencies and feeble attempts at what has been fitly called " scrambling legislation," it is lamentable to have to add that Ministers have evidently no intention either of fulfilling a rash promise, or of boldly carrying through a bad compromise. It is vain and unavailing to talk of the progress of the measure having been obstructed. The Conservatives did not oppose the second reading, or offer any other obstruction to legislation on the general principle, however much they may have disapproved of the policy pursued in the matter, or of the mode in which that policy was attempted to he carried out. If Lir# J. RUSSELL, having obtained the power to deal cttprehensively and completely with the whole question of Reform, had come forward and said—here are our matured schemes, by them we are prepared to stand or fall, and, in the face of every difficulty and doubt, we feel that such a policy will strengthen the Constitution, elevate the people, and re-invigorate the whole nation,—we might have still differed with him as to the wisdom of his propositions, but he would at least have commanded some measure of respect. Instead of following such a course, Lord JOHN RUSSELL at last plainly con fesses that he has no policy at all, and he hints at a compromise, which he has no intention of effecting —a compromise so paltry and unwise, that its adop tion, were it practicable, would effectually disor ganise and enfeeble the Legislature, and cast an indelible insult—a lasting affront upon a loyal, contented, and happy people.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS.-YESTERDAY. The Trustees and:Mortgages Bill and the Ecclesiastical Courts Jurisdiction Bill were read a third time and passed. Sir J. Barnard's Act Repeal Bill was read a second time. Lord TEYNIIAM moved a resolution that the House, desiring the settlement of the great question of Parliamentary Reform, and for the sake of the peace of the country, was willing to give its most careful consideration to the petitions presented to it in favour of manhood suffrage and vote by ballot, as the broadest basis of the electoral franchise. The resolution con tained other clauses, preventing vagrant and improper char acters from being put upon the register. He proceeded to develop his views amidst the general amusement of the House, declaring that universal suffrage was the object towards which their deliberation ought to teed, though at present they might be contented with household suffrage.. Lord Gliaxvittz briefly opposed' the 'motion, which was negatived without a division . The House then adjourned at ten minutes to eight. HOUSE OF COMMONS.-YESTERDAY. The Speaker took the chair at four o'clock. Mr. BLAxx asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether in the event of a measure for the amendment of the representation of the people passing during the present session of Parliament for England alone. a dissolution and general election for Great Britain and Ireland would take place, to be followed by elections in Scotland and Ireland, on the passing of the bills for the amendment of the representation of the People for those countries. Lord J. RUtiSELL said that when her Majesty was advised to dissolve Parliament, the dissolution extended to Scotland and Ireland as a matter of course. Mr. BRA Dl' asked whether, if the English Reform Bill became law before the Scotch and Irish; whether the dissolution would take place previously to these last becoming law. Lord J. RUSSELL repeated that the dissolution was altogether a prerogative of the Crown. According to practice, a disso lution would follow the passing any bill for the reform of the representation, but what advice would be given to her Majesty on that point he could not then state: In reply to Mr. H. Baillie, Lord J. Russam. said that he intended, after the night's reform debate was closed, to propose the withdrawal of the Scotch and Irish bills. On the order of the day for resuming the debate on the motion for going into committee on the Reform Bill, Sir .1. FERGUSON said that he had given notice of his inten tion to move that the committal of the bill be postponed till after the second reading of the Scotch and Irish bills. Finding that this motion was irregular, he should move . the adjourn ment of the debate. He attacked the principle of the bill itself, and the piecemeal legislation adopted by the ministry in carrying out that principle. All the evils. he apprehended would be greatly aggravated unless the three bills were dealt with at the same time. He declared that the Conservatives had no wish to displace-the Government; but they were not to be deterred from opposing a measure which they felt to be perilous to the country. Colonel Dtosson protested against the conduct adopted towards Iteland in the matter. After the dangerous budget which had been proposed by the ministry, the house would be better occupied in discussing the finance of the country than the abortion of a bill. Sir G. GREY could 'only regard the conduct of the opposition as another attempt to delay the bill after ., all other pretexts had been exhausted. He 'denounced this ungenerous mode of treating a measure which no one had the courage to meet by a direct negative. He could not believe that any party in that house would seriously have opposed going into committee after having agreed solemnly to the principle of the bill; still less could he conceive how any reformer would adopt a course so opposite to his principles and his professed objects. Lord J. MANNERS remarked, on this last observation, that it proved where its difficulty lay. It was in the opinions of members on the Ministerial side that the Government found its chief opposition. It was not the Conservative party, but the Ministers themselves who were responsible for delaying the progress of reform, and truly chargeable with insincerity in this mode of dealing with it. It was the Government who had now to answer for a discontented Parliament and a deluded People.. . Sir J. COLEBROOK, while admitting that Scotland was not fairly dealt with, would not on that account delay the progress of the bill. . _ —.—....

L or ds Grey and DerbY, 0 h d ec lared the imputation they con tained ag ainst the iVoriring classes to be most unfair and unjust. - - Mr. C. BRUCE did' not believe that the withdrawal of the bill w ould prod uce an y such indignation. At all e v ents, justice a s well as policy demanded that Scotland should be put upon a level with England. Mr. BAXTER thought that by forwarding the enactment of a reform bill for England, they would do what was best towards ensuring a similar bill for Scotland. Mr. GEORGE regretted that the question of reform for-the different sections of the United Kingdom had been separated. The three bills ought to Proceed and pass. Mr. PEASE vindicated the right of the working classes to the franchise. After a few remarks from Mr.. Stirling, The LORD-ADVOCATE opposed the motion for adjournment. It was impossible to take three reform bills into consideration simultaneously—one must have priority. The Government were most anxious to proceed with the Scotch and Irish bills, and Wished only thafthe members Who seemed , so impatient on. that point would help them to get into committee, on the measure already before the House.. Mr. Wurrasins argued that if the English Bill was passe d all discussion upon the Irish and Scotch Bills would become useless. The new representation would be settled, and what ever right to new members might he established on behalf of Ireland and Scotland, there would be no seats to give away. Mr. BRIOHT denounced the interminable amendments and frivolous delays which had been interposed to prevent the preg,ress of the bill. The question was, whether the House was willing to Pass any reform of any sort during the present session. He proceeded to discuss the general question, and cited many facts, showing the advance of •the working classes in education, in intelligence, and even - in wealth. The" classes had, he believed, generally expressed their satisfactio n with the bill brought in by the Government, and be implored the House to pass a measure which was in every way e el° and moderate. Sir H. Cstaiss reverted to the qtiestion which he said 1; 14 specially before the House, namely, whether the Scotch ant Irish ,billS shoulel,bessroeeeded with at the same tinl e.a , the, English. He contended that the measure ought not to be di-severed. Lord PALMERSTON, in reviewing the course idorted tesrard • the Reform Bill, said that the measure had held de.ayel, entirely by the superabundant use of the gift of tongues by its opponents. He asked the House to answer the plain question whether it was proper to pass a bill for reforming th e representation during the present or in any future see lion. The op,esition when themselves in office had aecepted the principle of reform, and this conduct was not straight forward in now attempting to defeat it by delay. All their objections related to matters of detail, and ought i n consistency to be discussed in committee. The motion then Underdiscussien for adjodrning the • debate was one of a s eries of dilatory pleas designed only to dells' add frtistratc the TV' gress of the measure. It was based upon the assumption that the Government had abandoned the Scotch and Irish reform bills. Tbis was altogether untrue, and he contended that 70 inconvenience would arise Isom postponing those bills until anather session, as there was no time to pass them in thisr et .; The course pursued by the opposition with regard to the hit ' was, he maintained, unworthy of a great political party. I le hoped that the bill would, nevertheless, be carried to a VIC . " cessful conclusion before the end of the session. Mr. DisrisEst argued at much length that the fault of delay lay at the door of the Government and their partisans. After some remarks in reply, from Lord John Russell, th e House divided, and the numbers were.: For adjourning t h° debate, 248; against, 229---majority against, 21. Mr. BAILUE COCHRANE moved that the House should adjourn. The division was immediately taken, when the motion fat adjournment was again negatived by 267 to 222: majoritlt 45 ; The motion for adjournment was, however, renewed , and Lord Palhieritola asSentingl; the debate was adjourned to Monday nest. The orders for the second reading of the Sciitch and Irish Reform Bills were discharged. The other business was disdosed of, and the House adjOnited t five minutes past three a.m. THE COUNTESS OF DERBY'S ASSEMBLY• • The Countess of Derby had a brilliant reception ell Wednesday night, at the family mansion, St. Jamas' square, London. The Sovereign Prince of Lichtenstei n and their Serene Highnesses Prince and Princess Edward of Saxe Weimar were among the Countess's earliest visitors. Previously the Earl and Countess of Derby received at dinner a select party, including the Marquis and Marchioness of Exeter and Lady Mary Cecil, the Earl and Countess of Portarlington, Viscount Mahon' , Lord and Lady Claude Hamilton, Lord Delamere, Lo d and Lady Templemore, Lady Marion Alford, Lord Redesdale, Colonel the Hon. Percy Herbert, and the Hon. George Heathcote. GREAT LOSS OF FISHERMEN OFF • YARMOUTH. Up to the present date the little that has been heard of the missing fishing boats has served only to con6 ol the most dismal apprehensions. The lugger chgmpiou has been picked up disabled,with her nets entangled ahon t her, as if the storm swept away the unfortunate crew before they had time to haul in. Part of the stern of the smack Prince of Wales has also been picked up, leaving little doubt as to -her fate. The missing vessels were the Contest and the Atalanta, the Stamboul (a cruiser), the Paymaster, the Three Sisters, the Planet, the SylPh , and another. The Royalist, of Gorleston, and the James and Ann, of Sheringham, which sailed from Gre at Yarmouth harbouri together with four luggers and two cutters from Lowestoft, and two Yarmouth. smacks are also among the missing. These luggers we re manned each by nine or ten men and one boy, and tho smacks by about half the number ; 5° that the loss of fishermen on this part of the coast, and within a distance of about a dozen miles, will fall very little short of 200 ; tha number lost front Yarmouth alone is about 130. The number of families ruined, of women made widows, and children , fatherless by this appalling calamity is painful to contemplate, the number of children alone being upwards of 200. We understand 'that a public appeal will be made on behalf of these poor creatures who are now utterly destitute, and, surely Ileaven-barn charity never expended itself on more deserving objects ! The fishermen here are absolutely panic' stricken ; numbers of boats are lying idle in the roads, the men refusing to go to sea. Several owners ha ve made up for the season, and landed their nets, sc' disheartened are they by this havoc of their property. The pecuniary loss directly entailed on the tows cannot be less than £10,000; and, as fishing is th e staple trade of the port, a large capital being invested in it, and thousands of poor men living throughout the year on what they are able to earn in the season, it is difficult to estimate the indirect effects of the catas trophe. On Monday six vessels sailed to the North So' in the expectation of being able to ascertain some tidings of the missing boats or their crews, but not a human being here cherishes the faintest hope of their safetY- It is a most remarkable circumstance that these boats were in most cases commanded by some of the old and most experienced masters belonging to the port. EXHIBITION OF 1862.—A meeting of the guarantee committee of the Society of Arts was held at the society : 5 house on Tuesday, the Marquis of Salisbury, i t u the chair, when it was announced that the s um already subscribed amounted to £302,000. THE Rev. C. H. SPuaeflois.—The friends and ea" miters of this popular preacher met at New Park-street Chapel on Monday evening last to take leave of him for a short time, as he is going to have a tour through Switzerland, and will be absent from his congregktie u about two months. Mr. Spurgeon has for some tiMe past complained of great weariness, brought on, 11 7 doubt, by his indefatigable zeal. The amount of hl labours may in a measure be estimated when it is state , ' that for the last seven years he has preached on an a verage ten sermons a week, always to large congregations, but, sometimes to as many as 30,000 souls at one time, beside ; other public duties. SINGULAR DEATH OF A CHILD.—On Monday after noon, as a little girl was passing near a house in the neighbourhood of Hillhouse, near Huddersfield, she observed something strange in a tub of dirty water, enu on calling the attention of an older person to it they found it to be the legs and feet of a child obtrudini over the sides of the tub. They drew the child out, an found it to be a boy named James Holland, two Yee rs and five months old, who had been playing about the pavement a very short time previously. and it is eliP posed that in leaning over the tub, which was in all exposed position, he overbalanced himself and fell in- There were only a few inches of liquid matter a t the bottom of the tub. FATAL ACCIDENT FROM CRINOLINE.—On Monday, fatal accident occurred at the Owlerton Paper Mill, t Miss Kate Marshall. aged 17, daughter of Mr. W. Mar shall, paper manufacturer. Between eight and nine o'clock, Miss Marshall went into the mill: simply for pastime, and with no particular object in view — e n " while standing' near • the shafting that turns ene of the calenders, her dress—caused by her crinoline —got itit contact with the machinery, and she was whirled round and killed instantly. The shaft not revolving very swiftly, and the workmen not being in the habit of driving at a fast speed, it had never been thought neces sary to box it off. Just before the accident, the deceased had been applying a little lubrication to the necksof o tte calender, and it was while watching the •letteT at that her clothes got wound round the machinery. he when ni s shaft was only two.feet from the ground, and w deceased was whirred round if . the floor fractured her t ' skull, the immediate cause of deifb. A GREAT Groa.—The great gun cast at Fort Pitt , ab f Foundry, some months ago , i s now com p leted. The bore is fifteen inches in feet long. It is large enough to diameter, and hold sixteen out bus ourteen, hel& and a stout, broad shouldered man may enter it and pas - . 4 down to the bottom. While undergoing the different processes of boring,, turning, and planing, the gun had turned round in its lathe about 65,000 times, and. some parts of its exterior surface moved a distance of one rod at each turn, making the whole distance which some parts of the iron have travelled while in the lathe, more than two hundred miles ! The gun is now encircled by two massive rings, six feet in diameter and one foot of face; which~ are secured by set screws. The gnu serves as an axle, roll along tog ether on a the rings act as wheels, and a ll and heavy wooden railway. H o l e s are cast in the face of pikes.

COLONEL DAUBENY'S VISIT TO PARIS. ColOtlel Datibeny, Inspector General of Army Clothing, has just returned from his official visit to Paris, where every facility was, we understand, offered him for thoroughly examining the various Imperial . manufactures and depots. The Colonel's first visit was paid to the flagnificent establi s h ment of the Messrs. Urandil l o t, in the Rue Roch ec h ouart, wh e re every article of army clothing is made on an enormous scale, and princi pally by machinery. The first process examined was the stitching of tents, which is all done by women working a whole wilderness of sewing machines, specially con structed for the purpose. Colonel Daubeny was next taken through the boot and shoo-making department , where ankle boots for the 'troops are manufactured at the ordinary rate of 30,000 pairs per mbnih, with power, under pressure, of doubling that number. The motive power, by the >aid of which all the operations of this department are carried on, is steam, which, propelling a beautiful and elaborate arran geme nt of machinery, succes s f u lly cu t s ou t the leather, beats the soles into shape, punches the holes for the stitches, and finally stitches th e wor k t oge ther.; in short, turns out the boot or sh oe a per f ect piece of •work. By a minu te subdivision of s i zes , 24 in number — we have onl y three—every 'rec ru it in the French army can be pro perly fitted with shoes in a moment. The careful inspec tion which the colonel gave to this department eneourage3 the hope that we may, ere long, see something of the sort established •in this country, where the corns of o ur recruits could tell terrible tales of the suffering e endur ed through ill-fitting shoes and ankle jacks. The insp ci iecottoy subsequently v i s it e d th e Imperial manufactory of th at Beauvais, and filially the central depot at Paso' ,w h the arrangements of both' of -which he was very P..11.4c gratified.--United Service Gazette.
