ROUSE OF COMMONS.-MONDAY .451„.,Cl TM; ME D ICAL P,ROFRIISION. 11 0 DUIN B asked the • Secretary of War why men iXtie, ' Qived the legal rigat to practice .surgery and 1 / 4 1 from the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland 414 ded from becoming candidates for the medical ad 'l3 pointtnents in the army, and whether there o any - jeetion on the part of Government to bring in a bill to grant to those deserving medical officers who have retired from the service the same additional rank which will be given to those who are at present serving on their retirement ? Mr. S. HERBERT said that since the remuneration to army Burn-eons had been increased, it had been decided that, in addition to the diploma to the, College of Surgeons, another from some other body should also be required. As to the second question, he said there would be great difficulty in altering the preSent system. ARMY OFFICERS IN INDIA. Colonel SYRus asked the Secretary for India whether, as the 56th clause of the Government of India Act (1858), transferring the direCt Government of India to the Crown, guaranteed to the officers of the Indian army the rank and privileges, &c., they leld at the time of the passing of the said act, it is the intention of her Majesty's Government to alter the'rank held by the field officers of the Artillery and. Engineers of the Indian army at the time of passing of said act. ' Sir C. WooD, after explaining the circumstances, said it was not intended to alter or cancel the rank or position of the officers in question. Sir F. SMITH' asked the Secretary for War whether the Royal Commissioners, to inquire into the defences of the countrys had been appointed, and whether there is any pro bability of their making a report, before the prorogation of Parliament ; and if not, whether, on the recommendation of the commissioners, her Majesty's Government will feel at liberty to suspend any' works which have been already authorised by Parliament, or ' commence, without such authority ; any other works which the commissioners may represent to be of an urgent character ? ' Mr. S. HERBERT did not expect the contingency to occur, or that the Commissioners would recommend Government to suspend any, works now authorised by Parliament. ROAT AM CATHOLIC SOLDIERS. Captain 0' CONNELI; asked the Secretary for War,Whether he is prepared to introdnce a reiulation to - enable Roman Catholic soldiers to attend . mass on the holidays of : their church, when they can .do so without interference with their military duties. Mr. 'HERBERT said a regulation existed enabling the soldiers to attend divine worship before nine o'clock, when ever their duties permitted. • . .• A NEW WRIT FOR BODMIN On the motion of Mr. E. James, a new writ was ordered for Bodmin, in place of Mr. Michell, who had accepted the office of Steward of the Mano - f of Northstedd. The orders of the day having, on the motion of Lord PALMERSTON, been suspended, THE ITALIAN QUESTION.—LOED ELCHO'S MOTION. Lord. -- ELeno moved, that an humble address be presented to her Majesty stating that, in the opinion of this House, it would be consistent neither with the honour nor the dignity of this cmintry which, throughout the late negotiations, has preserved a strict and impartial neutrality between the con tending powers, and use,' its earnest endeavours to prevent the outbreak of hostilities, to take part in any conference for the purpose of settling the details of a peace, the prelimi naries of which have - been arranged between the Emperor of the French and the Emperor of Austria. He urged; that; as we had been neutral from the commencement, we should be neutral to the end, which could not be if we were mixed up with a conference. He did not blame the Emperor of the French for making peace ; he had, doubtless, found dif ficulties, for which he was not prepared, in the way of his original views ; but, neither could he consider Austria as, morally, the aggressor, or responsible for the war. That power had not added a single soldier to her force till the Emperor of the French commenced to use menacing language towards the Emperor of Austria, and had made preparations, shelving that war was airs ady in his mind. It was not, he contended,,_ to Austria, but to France and Sardinia, that we should attribute outbreak of hostilities. With all our administration for Sardinia, we could not deny ,that, for years, its attitude towards Austria had been one of provocation and insult. The conduct of France and Sar dinia constituted a precedent, against which, they, as Englishmen, were bound to protest, (an authorised armed intervention in favour of nationalities,) by which the public law of Europe would be alto gether destroyed. As to the peace, there could be no doubt that the present British Government was anxious that Austria should be driven across the Alps, if not by the sword, by the pen, and would be disappointed at any other result. , With such objects, and the precedents under which it had always acted, it could not be called neutral. The French Government assumed that the views of our Government on the subject were identical with its own ; and the French Government, assuredly , could not be callel neutral. To enter into a Congress in such a spirit would be to depart from those principles of non-intervention which our greatest statesmen had now adopted as the true policy of this country. All our attempts at intervention in that spirit had produced nothing but mischief and disappoint ment. How were they prepared to deal with the great Italian difficulties—the retention by Austria of the strong holds which formed the keys of Italy, or the administration of the Pope ?' If they had confidence in the Emperor of the French, their interference was superfluous. lie re peated that he saw no good result that would follow from our entering into the Conference ; but, if 'the noble lord would engage in it, not as a partisan, but in the spirit of fairness and impartiality, he for one should cordially pray for its success. Mr. HORSMAN seconded the motion. Mr. M. KINGLAXE moved the previous question, without saying that the motion was unconstitutional. It so far interposed between Government and its duties as to amount to a vote of want of-confidence. It was, he thought, incon ceivably rash thus to prejudice the future, and decide .6n the Conduct to be pursued months hence, when the circiim_ stances might be totally altered. He should follow the old fashion principle of conceding latitude of action to he - Majesty's Ministers, and holding them re3ponsibler for that action. At the same time he agreed with the motion so far in deprecating our join ing a Congress, that he was unwilling -to meet ,the motion by a direct negative. At the close of a general war,' the nations concerned might meet in Congress,.but, in the present instance, we had not engaged in the war, and would, therefore, enter Congress without weight or au thority. Moreover, our statesmen had not distinguished themselves in Congresses. They had not come out of those of 1815 or . 1856 with any increase of reputation; and had often committed themselves to opinions derogatory to the honour of the country. _ The Criarremmon of the EXCHEQUER said the Govern ment was prepared to meet this motion by a direct negative ; but, as the previous miestion had been moved, they would adopt and support it. The terms of peace would be settled by the belligerents themselves ; but, if we entered into a conference it would be for the purpose of arranging ques tions, not merely Italian, but European ; and it was absurd to pledge the Government in advance as to the course they should pursue under circumstances which had not yet arisen. He admitted the feverish desire for peace maintained by the late government, but protested against the d istinction drawn in itsfavourbetween the present government by the noble lord. Neither was the language of Mr. Disraeli in that House con sistent with strict neutrality when he declared the conduct of Sardinia was ambiguous and suspicious, and that of Austria want of dignified conciliation. It was the attitude of that Government which induced Austria to take the steps which finally led to the rupture of peace. The objct of Lord Elcho was to prevent England from engaging in a confe rence lest its views should be too favourable to Italy, and too hostile to Austria. The very idea of imputing hostili ties to Austria was preposterous and absurd; we werff deeply interested in the preservation of that Power as. essential to the equilibrium of Europe. The Italian difficulty did not only exist in that present mo ment, it went back, at least to 1815, since which time whenever the slightest attempt was made on the part of Italy for freedom, the iron hand of Austria interposed and re-established all .the rigours of previous governments. Hence, the very position of Sardinia as a free state became a standing menace to Austria. Under such circumstances he could not blame either Austria or Sardinia for the atti tudes they had assumed. Recurring to the Italian question, he could not believe that the supremacy of Austria could ever be exercised to good effect ; and even those most favourable to her power might wish that she might be confined within limits where she could exercise a just and beneficial dominion. As to the Congress, it was asked what they would do when they got there. This was a matter which belonged to the distant future, and in re spect of which he protested against the House of Commons usurping the functions of the Executive, or recording an unconditional declaration against any line of action. Eng land hid always manifested its sympathies for Italy. She had joined with other Powers in endeavouring to persuade the Pope to ameliorate his government, and we were not now to proclaim our isolation, and refuse to take its part in effecting good. It was said that we always disgraced ourselves in Congresses. He did not believe that an. Englishman could not be found able to take his part with representatives of other nations. He again protested against the proposal for tying the hands of Government to prevent the possibility of their doing good to a large portion of mankind, and repressing tyranny in some of the fairest countries of the earth. They were told not - to assist France, civil if she was sincere in her efforts to 'obtain freedom for Italy. He called Upon the House to reject a proposition so derogatory to the House and the interest of the country. Mr.S, FrrzognAtm said that it Wat lieiattse the opposi tion distrusted the pone) , of Lord PalmerstOn, and it was because they viewed,with alarm the objects with 'whiCh he would enter a congress, that they desired the house to ex- press an opinion on the subject: He entered at some length into the diplomatic policy of the present Government, com plaining that the House and the country were left in igno rance, and that if • the' GoVernment was miSiudged it was their own fault. As to the congress, if the noble lord en-:. tered into it, he would sPeedily - find himself such 'differ- , ence of opinion_ with the' other powers, that he Would be compelled to retire before this opposition. It' would be far better -to avoid the congress altogether , than to risk such a reSult. PrOjeCts would be subinitted to the congress which this country Could not admit without dis grace, 'or oppose without danger, which, of itself, was a suffieient reason for • - abstaining • from 'taking part in. it. • Lord 11. VANE supported the previous question. Mr. QOCHRANE, supported the resolution, decliiring that the conduct of Lord,Pahnerstori'was Such as to deprive him of all confidence. Mn GILIuN Said" the " question before the House was not whether it was or was • nbt advisable to enter into a COngress, but -Whether the hands of the administration should.; be so fettered as' to 'be de prived of u, liberty of ' action,' whatever circumstances might arise. This latter 'course taken just before'the . rising of Parliament would, he contended, be most imprudent and unwarran:able. _ Mr. Q'bONOGIIIJE" siippOrted The resolution. The prin ciples of peace had already been . Settled, and nothing re mained but to carry out the details. , . Mr: 31. MILNrs objected to the reso'_ution, as involving a hypothetical_ proposition against a cOnting,ehey occurring no One knew when or where. Mr. vHENNESSY, adduced various authorities to show; that the Papal States were, more prosperous and better governed than Sardinia:. He supported the resolution. Mr. Honsmax said the only Werence to be drawn from the speeches and the Conduct of the Ministry was that they desired, if they did not intend to; abandon principles of neutrality hitherto so cattfully maintained, and drag; the country into the entanglements and controversy which now beset foreign political questions. He. called on the House td'exprss such an opinion as should prevent , the Ministry from committing themselves durinm '' the recess to a policy repugnant alike to the opinions of Parliament and the feel ings of the nation. On'thiS' ground he 'strongly-supported . the resolution, believing that an alliance with France for the purpose of carrying Out French policy in Italy was utterly repugnant to the national sentiments. Mr. S. HERBERT entered in detail into the state of Italy, contending that we had no right to say that the' people were unfit for freedom. He did not say that they were about to enter in a congres. The difficulties of that course had been already pointed Out ; but if those difficulties were removed, were they to refuse to join in the task of restoring Italy to her rank among nations ? The resolution called upon . the House to bind, not only the Government, but itself as to its actions under circumstances which no one could foresee2—a course which he declared would be the hcight of human folly. Mr. WHITESIDE, after arguing that a congress would oc cupy itself with, matters the discussion of which could only lead this country into inexplicable difficulties, and pointed out the inconsistency of Mr. Gladstone, who first declared that Government had no to Austria, and then de nounced her rule as an iron depotism. Mr. Gladstone had de clared that peace could not last while Austria held a foot of land in Italy. How could a Ministry—one of the principal members of which held such language—enter fairly and impartially into a congress ? He declared that no congress could dQ more for Italy than had been done already, and therefdre fully approved the principle of the resolution. Lord J. RUSSELL said that nothing could be more ill-, timed than advising 'the Crown not to permit the Ministry to do what it had never been asked to do, and under the present circumstances it had no, intention of doing. After defending the conduct of Sardinia, rendered necessary by her position and circumstances, he objected to the resolu tion, that it did not prevent England from joining France in a war against Italy, or precluded her from anything, except taking part in a congress. He said this, fully admit ting that it was doubted whether it would be prudent foi this country to take such a course, and that of France and Austria at Zurich to settle the whole ,question,, it would not become the honour or dignity of this country to add its signature, to such a settlement. At the same time, affairs might take a very different turn; and render our intervention useful and even necessary . for the protection of Italy from the double, danger of foreign intervention and domestic revolution, by forming a Confederation on a ;sound and durable basis. Was England to register a vow which should preclude her from taking part in such .a work ? This was a question. which, like others ? ought to be left to the 4iscretion and re sponsibility of the Ministers' of the Crown.' 'AdVertiag to the proposals made by France to Austria, through the British Government, ho proceeded to explain the cir cumstances under which, without sanctioning them, the Ministry became the channel of their 'communication, distinctly declaring that it offered no advice in the matter. Ile rejoiced that peace bad been concluded, believing that the councils of peace would do more than any contingency of war for the future Of Europe. and Italy. He claimed for Italy the right to assume by so many other nations, of founding its own Government on the basis of a popular movement, and declared" to be the duty of this country to abstain ,from a policy of isolating, which may in the end endanger its own independence. Mr.DISRAELI defended himself from the charge of having violated neutrality by the expressions he had used in refer ence to Austria and Sardinia. He had said nothing that was not warranted by the facts, and justified by the statements of our ambassador. Recurring to the denunciations, by Mr. Gladstone, of the treaties of Vienna, he asked if those used were shared by his colleagues, and if it was with such intent that they would enter into the congress if to, he --contended that the preliminaries of Villa Franca formed a most unsatis factory basis for altering the settlements of 1815. He said that Lord J. Russell had given every information respecting his part in the communication between France and Austria, except what they wanted to know, namely, whether the Government approved that communication or not. Coming to the question ofatongress he argued strongly against our engaging mit, as we should either donothing or violate the principle of non-intervention. As for the motion it touched the most vital question of the constitutional right, and it was one, therefore, which ought not to be introduced at the very close of the session. The House could not then do justice to the subject, and he therefore trusted Lord Elcho would consider his object attained, and withdraw his vm m a lo o Lor t , i : o cc n dush . petirA H yLige e )ulvi o e n ßsto l fd y Ttu b iN e ine s o cqgo u utn g ehgr h set t iahoto L nul o iltda r ht cl aaeynd P s, a mht l oa m rd.l e ep r ba s evi t ese o rn n ath , etle i ai n the inter en Pope k i di taking h a ay l t arohnwnei we composition h r o rpm e f n poa gdor conducts the hti ineo l ntm e toohhft e eei Ano assertiont r h e ere d ri da eh i s neaaltwdaoer.bfeetdtehhnie at to occurrences rightnco c eb u enc hen. es gentlemanprevious t assumedh of djenmiofitshetdaetxTrn becausea ha. l done our most to prevent peace from being broken we were to do nothing to render it more durable. Now that it was re-established on the general question, he said that Austria would be stronger without her possessions in Italy, which were her vulnerable points—a source of weakness to her. If they could do good to Italy by entering into a congress, .it would not be their duty to decline it. A motion precluding the Crown from acting under circum stances neither politic nor constitutional. lie would have preferred a direct negative to it, but would support the indulgent mode of meeting it, proposed by the amendment, of the previous motion. Lord ELcuo, after defending his motion, withdrew it, accepting the amendment of the previous motion. The amendment was agreed to. The Appropriation and the East India Loan Bill passed through committ,ee. The Reserve Volunteer Force Seamen Bill was read a third time and passed. After a protest from Mr. Ayrton against' fhe penal laws, other bills were advanced a stage. The House adjourned at twenty minutes to three. NORTIIIIRN DAPItraTIMESii ,♦ ST.

Woodruff, llmighton, Shimmin, and Mellor. , A report from the Engineer, recommending some altera tions in St. Martin's market, was ordered to be printed, and a,copy sent to each meniber of the committee. before the magistrates, on Saturday, where a person named CHAIRMAN emonrin c that 'called Iled morning's attention g,spare ors relative v committee aa t s o e wa T i s s tha su te mmonedlor causing an obstruction in Queen's-square. Froth the observations then made, the public were led to believe that the Markets' Committee were actually doing nothing lets than obtaining money under false pretences for the party summoned stated that, after paying rent for space, he was charged with obstructing the way by remain ing there. He only drew attention .to the circumstance as showing the absolute necessity that existed for a wholesale market, in consequence of the, crowded state of Queen's square. It was quite sufficient to justify the committee in bringing before the Council some scheme for a wholesale market, which sooner or later must be proved. THE SYSTEM OF . BOOK-KEEPING AT THE MAEKET3 The CHAIRMAN called upon Mr. Shimmin to proceed with his renewed motion with respect to the mode in which the books should be kept. Mr. SIIMMIN said he could not say more on the matter than he had already said. He believed that if the com mittee adopted his plan, it would be such an effectual check on their •servants as to prevent the possibility of further Mr. MELLOR seconded the motion The CHAIRMAN said. that when the 'subject was last brought forward by Mr. Shimmin, the feeling of the com mittee seemed to be, that the consideration. of his plan should be postponed until the new staff Was completed, and the new system of book-kepping recomMended by the trea surer had been tried. He thought it rather advisable. that they should postpone the matter. until the treasurer was fairly able to ; report to the committee on the working of the new system, and whether he could suggest any alteration in the system to meet the necessary requirements. Mi. Sim mix said they saw fhat the books now in use aid not meet the requirements ; but if they adopted his plan, the committee would • weekly have before them the exact state of the markets. They would have before them every shop and stall that was empty, and, also, all those occupied. Mr. WOODRUFF called for the books containing a reso solution of the committee on the subject passed at a previous meeting ;. and after some conversation, in the course of which the Chairman and Mr. Woodruff said the Treasurer had not fairly tried the new system, Mr. SunumiN said that if the treasurer had not tried the system, he submitted that he ought to have done, for he had had since February last to do it in. The CHAIRMAN said the treasurer had only made up one quarter, and he wished the committee to bear with him while he had the result of a second quarter's accounts before him, on which the treasurer was called in. The CHAIRMAN said the committee wished to know whether he was in a position to report as to the present mode of book-keeping. The TREASURER, in reply, said that, from what he had already seen, he thought very highly of it. He was of opinion that system with, perhaps, some slight modifi cations, would be a very good one under which to . carry on the market accounts. With possible alterations, which would suggest themselves by experience, he thought it would be a good system. Mr. MELLOR enquired whether it did not, in many respects, correspond with the system now proposed by Mr. Shimmin, The TREASURER said that no doubt a great many of the features in Mr. Shimmin's plan might be Introduced, but at present he thOught his plan-was complicated. - The CHAIRMAN : You would not advise the committee to withdraw the present system for the purpose of introducing Mr. Shimmin's plan ? The TREASURER : No, I would not. admitted of any bl un de r s. if properly carried out. If Mr. WOODRUFF inquired if the system n ow in existence The TREA SURER sa id not, the books were properly kept under the present system, the committee would be able to see every week exactly how they stood. Mr. WOODRUFF said, a t the proper time he should be ready to adopt any plan which might be an improvement, no matter from whom it came. Any new plan at present, however, would, in hid epinion, complicate the operations of the committ ee . After some further discussion , Mr. Shimm i n declined to his withdraw mo tio n. H The CHAIRMAN then put the motion, when two voted for it . and two against it, o n which the, chairman said he should give his vot e against th e motion, on the sole ground that he aid not think sufficient time had been given to try the pre sent system. There was no further business.

She bring twenty-six passengers, and 2,010 ounces of gold-dust. Her dates are from Benin to June 24 ; Brass River, 25 ; Fernando Po, 29 ; Camerogus, July 1 ; Old Calabdr, 2nd,; Bonny, 7 ; Lagos, 11 ; Accra, 12 ; Cape Coast Castle, 14 ; Cape Palmas, 17 ; Sierra Leone, 21; Bathurst, 25 ; Teneriffe, 30 ; and ,Madeira .to the Ist of August. The i li.M.S.S. Et:dope was off Cape Palmas on the 17th of July, and the R.M.S.S. Athenian at Madeira, on the Ist of August. • Her cargo consists of 214 casks of palm oil ; 1 box, 2 parcels, and ,34 teeth ivory ; boxes specie, valued at £ 10 ,700; 16' boxes of arrowroot ; 40' tons camWoiid . ; ',3 packages beeswax; 10 cases monkey skin.; 52 bags cochi neal ; ' 67 boxes oranges; and 46 packageg;sundries.

Most. of the cargo saved, but much damaged. In Old Calabar River an improvement in the supply of oil. Ships healthy. The prico of palm oil at Accra has risen to the outrageous rate of eight he ids Of.cowries for the pot of nine gallons. of warm oil. The rains this year have been terrific ill most parts of the Eastern district. Some of the mountain brooks have swollen into laroe rivers, and the path from Accra to Crob boe is quite flooded. Strange to say. there has b een v er y little rain in Crob boe itself. • • Advices from the Eastern districts of the Gold Coast, under date of the 6th instant, inform us that, at the town of Kpong, on the bank of the river Volta, there had been collected four tons' of cotton, and.that two tons more were on their way to Kpong; Other accounts of 'a later date speak of the large quantities of this article that are 'likely to be shipped to En,gland, now that the natives have been taught to know that it is valuable. There is now no doubt whatever that the Gold Coast will become a cotton export ing country.
