The PALMER STON Cabinet can command as many votes on a motion of censure as they can when bringing forward exorbitant peace supplies. But it does not follow that because they had a majority of 194, whose constituents, taken at an average of 10,000, would not amount to 1 ,500,000 persons out of 27,000,000 of our population, that the large surplus of the people of these realms approve of their conduct Sn dealing with the United States, or :that they think them less culpable. It is necessary that a Cabinet should stand high in Parliament, but it is equally indis pensible that it should have the support of a very large majority of the public out of doors. And those who have read the PREMIER'S speech of Wednesday will be inclined to believe that his government is more popular with the country than they are with the Legislature. But this would be falling into a woeful error heir American policy is concerned. , IDON had been suffered to continnp as fa his dogged and waspish correspondence without reproof—if the noble Earl and his colleagues had been encouraged in their arrogance, and could have carried on their intrigues without detection, war between the two countries must have been the inevetable result. Fortunately for humanity, the people of Eng. land looked to what was going on in good time, and to the determined protest they entered against the conduct of our representatives in the States — the tone of gur official despatches—and the war fomenting tendency of the PALMERSTON Ministry —our deliverance from further bloodshed may be ascribed, and the majority of Ministers accounted for. If the public voice had not been raised in favour of peace, war must have ensued, and if a contest with the Americans was now going on, or war impending over our heads, are we to suppose that the Ministry who had plunged or threatened to involve us in such a disaster, would have had a majority of 194 in favour of their con duct. The danger has happily passed away—the Cabinet have been forced into moderation by popular opinion, and though the result of the division in the Commons is justified by the change which has taken place in the aspect of affairs, that change has not removed one particle of the moral guilt which rests on the authors of the dangers we have providentially escaped. We were not dependent on the United States for soldiers to fight our battles, and we had no right to go there for recruits. Lord PALMERSTON knew how to get British subjects to enlist. The House of Commons knew how they could have drawn Eng lishmen into the ranks still better, and yet Mr CRAMPTON vas instructed to procure help, by some means or other, from the States. The issuing of these instructions was a gross diplomatic blun der, the bungling in their execution a proof of unpardonable incapacity in those intrusted with the job. The whole affair was in fact a shameless exhibition of national weakness and administra tive imbecility. This is candidly, the almost unanimous opinion of the country ; and notwith standing all LORD PAL3IERSTON has said of he his noble colleague, will find that he has not ~'ee of public confidence which CLARENDON secu.,,, -sd for the Foreign Secretary that der s essential to success in the future direction o )ur relations with oti Lord CLAR fled on tl .er Powers hts are not so closely s where and honour are to be gain earer horn he will find a greater popularity I than in America wide field f exercise of all his diplomatic abilitie e Old World morally and by emplo In, win enduring m that P hat they Europe is smart ma 3 e up tl ion of material! y of a is to be the ri a large m House of Commons have recorded a opposition to a still larger majority of the public, and that the PALMER STON Cabinet have shown what they can do on a pinch, and whether right or wrong —Lord CLARENDON will busy himself a little more about the abnormal state of things in coun tries close under our noses, and laave Young Britain and Great Britain to go on in harmony and mutual prosperity. There is no credit to be gained by depriving the Americans of raiment and the British people of food. The lawless hand of despotism is filling its dungeons with the innocence of the fairest portions of Europe. Tragedies are being enacted on the Continent which must end in the bitterest lamentations, if something be not done, and quickly, to stay the waste or merciless tyrants and presumptuous fools. We have no right to intermeddle in the affairs of other countries, but all that vigilance our Foreign Secre tary bestows on the United States, and all the space and labour the London Times devotes to making America appear what she really is not—a land wholly abandoned to a lawless rabble— max be given to the affairs of Naples and the Italian Peninsula, to say nothing of Tur key, Servia, Asia Minor, Circassia, Egypt, and the East generally. The present state of Naples and Parma threaten the peace of Europe, and to the in direct ture condition of the East we look for compensa- on for our losses by war and hence, we say Europe is the mart of fame, in which t tho Stock Circular, g CLARENDON and his " leading journal" should be on the qui vine. And now that all parties must be satisfied, in all conscience, with what has been said for and against Mr. CRA3IPTON, we shall probably find that Lord CLARENDON has changed his stalking-horse, and the London Times has dis covered something in the social and moral tobacco Mad condition of Continental countries to IE CO Swan River AucklanJ, The Queen, accompanied by the Prince of Wales and the Princess Royal, took a drive on Tuesday afternoon in an open landau and four.

'ARY AND COMMERCIAL, LIVERPOOL, WEDNESDAY EVENING There has again been a very active Cotton Market, and a good business has been done at full prices, the sales reaching 10,000 bales, of which fully 8,000 have been taken by the trade. The Liverpool Share Market opened this morning with a strong feeling, but during the day became easier, and left off firm following quotations :—Aberdeen, 151 Chester and Birkenhead, 171 18.

Ditto New Shares, '6 3 9-16 Great Luxembourg, at and Hodgson, in their Monthly ae following report of the London The general character of the market has remained in a similar state to that represented in our last, and there has been no disposition to make sales unless at full rates. Business last month was transacted to a greater extent than could have been anticipated (conaiderimr, the reduced state of stock of all descriptions), and sales may be taken at nearly 1,000 hhds-400 hhds leaf; and 600 hhds strips. Recent advices from the United States fully confirm the statements we gave on the 2ud ultimo, respecting the make of strips, and the estimated supply to make up this year's export. Various opinions are expressed as to the present differences with this country, but the general tone of the mercantile interest may be gathered from the fol lowing extract:—." It is a very sad state of trouble, dis cord, and confusion through which we are now passing, in consequence of the unwise and ruinous measures of our present administration of government ; but we shall weather the storm, and settle down upon some compro mise, eventually, no doubt." Advices fr6m the Mauritius, by way of Suez, to the 21st April, report an active trade in sugar with Australia, but a dull business with England, on account of the fall reported at the beginning of Spring. The crop of sugar this year is said to be more deficient than any which has happened for some time. It is calculated at about 102,000 tons, being 5,000 tons less than last season—which also was a deficient crop. The cause of this has been the ravages of a disease in the canes during the flowering season. The exports of sugars of this year's crop from the port of the Mauritius to foreign countries up to the 31st March, was as follows : United Kingdom 149,130,327 Ibs France 7,126,508 " Cape of Good Hope 2,809,149 " Australian Colonies 20,138,207 " Other Colonies 302,964 " Total 175,507,155 lbs. Freights had fallen considerably, and ranged from 13.75 p. to 14 371 p. to Great Britain. The rates for Australia were nomEnal at 15p., all the vessels laid on for those colonies having sailed; and for the Cape of Good Hope they were quoted at 10p. The cholera was still raging at Port Louis and in the country. Great distress was expected, and want of labour in the colony. Mr. Miller, of the Jerusalem Coffee-house, has published his usual monthly list of vessels now on the berth for Australia, New Zealand, &c. The following are the particulars of the number of ves sels and the tonnage to sail during the present month : Launceston Hobart Town New South Wales and Moreton Bay Melbourne, Geelong, Portland Bay, and Port Fairy Adelaide Tons. 970 5 2,532 18 18,066 30,503 8 ... 4,140 3 .. 1,140 Wellington, Canterbury, Nelsen, and New Plymouth The Rhymney Iron Company, at their meeting of to-day, declared a dividend of 2/. per share, being at the rate of 4 per cent. per annum.

From this we learn that Aali Pacha had succeeded, during his sojourn at the Austrian Court, in effecting an arrangement by which the Principalities will continue to remain separated. companies which ever met in Glasgow assembled in the City Hall to do honour to the distinguished hero of a hundred fights, Major-General Sir Colin Campbell. The excitement in the city was most intense, and when the cortege reached the Royal Exchange in Queen-street, the carriage containing the illustrious warrior was surrounded by thousands of his enthusiastic admirers, who applauded him most vociferously at every stage. The chair was taken at twelve o'clock by the Righ Hon. the Lord Provost, who was supported on the righ by Sir Colin Campbell, Sir Archibald Alison, Bailie Wright, and Bailie Young; and on the left by Bailie Hannan, Bailie Thomson, Bailie Clouston, and Bailie Taylor. The Lord Provost rose," amid applause, and in an appropriate speech adverted to the event of the day. His Lordship then handed the burgess ticket to Sir Colin, enclosed in a handsome box of solid gold, amid great applause. Sir Colin Campbell, on receiving the diploma, said : My Lord Provost, ladies, and gentlemen, on arriving to-day in my native city, after an absence of upwards of half a century, it has become my lot to receive this civic honour, and it is also intended to confer another honour of a mili tary kind. (Cheers.) These both coming from my towns men, it is hard to say which I value most highly; I can say that I shall always be ready to draw the sword, about to be presented to me, in defence of my freedom. (Great applause.) I shall always value, as I ought to do, highly re c t e o p t b i n o n n n t n o f -day , , d . a n n n d m a y bo t a n n e d g g r r e a a t t e I h u n l n 1 y n , n ther conferred,manner a o n f d me. The recompense which I desire to give you is, in every possible way to do my duty to my country. Sir Colin sat down amid tremendous cheering. Sir Archibald Alison, amid much applause, rose and said—Sir Colin Campbell, you have just received from the Lord Provost and magistrates of this city the highest honour which they have it in their power to bestow. It is now my honoured privilege to present to you a testi monial of another description—a sword, the gift of six thousand of your grateful countrymen, in token of admi ration of your distinguished services and respect for your manly character. (Applause.) Sir Archibald then, in a long and animated oration, concluded by saying am confident that, should the storms of war again arise, the sword which I now present to you will again be drawn in defence of your country, and again achieve deeds an example to all future times, and which will live for ever in its grateful recollection; and however feeble may have been my expression of the feelings with which at this moment all in this vast assembly are animated, I am con fident that the applause which will follow your reception of it will cause you to feel for a moment "the electric shack of a nation's gratitude." (Applause.) When the learned Sheriff presented the sword, the whale audience rose to their feet, and gave three hearty and enthusiastic rounds of cheering. V.; S r Colin Campbell then rose and. said—Sir Archibald, and fe110.7 countrymen, I was quite unprepared for the eloquent manner in which this honour has been done me. (Applause) I can never forget the reception I have met with on this occasion, and the honours which have been conferred on me, surpassing, in amount of recompense, all the services I have been able to perform. (Great cheering.) There is another party- who ought not to be forgotten on this occasion. I owe all this to my hardy veteran soldiers of the Highland Brigade—(cheers)—and to them is the honour due for what you have now con ferred on me. This should not be forgotten, that these are conferred in their name as well as my own. (Tre mendous cheering.) NEW WATER FILTERS —FORSTER'S PATENT.—One of the greatest of human luxuries, especially at the present season, is a wholesome draught of pure water. However impure the original liquid, this luxury is ensured to those who—wisely for themselves—adopt the use of " Forster's Patent Rapid Water Purifier." In addition to purifica tion, this invaluable invention presents a further advan tage—that of rendering the water deliciously cool—a great desideratum in all warm climates, and even in our own, as evidenced by the few days' hot weather we have already experienced. The testimonials received by the patentee from the many highly respectable individuals, who have either tried or adopted his invention, furnish a guarantee of its complete success; and looking at the portable form, the economy of labour, the luxury it supplies, we cannot doubt but that it' the advantages it secured were but generally known, its adoption wouldjbe universal. On the other hand, we learn that the Moldavian population have expressed an adverse opinion in most unmistakeable terms. CANADA. ARRIVAL OF THE STEAMER INDIAN The Montreal Ocean Steam Ship Company's screw steamer, Indian, Captain Jones, arrived in the Mersey yesterday morning. She left Quebec on Saturday the 21st June, and has made the run in the space of 10 days and 7 hours. She brings 70 cabin and 54 steerage passengers, and a quantity of specie. On the 23rd, she exchanged signals with the s.s. Anglo Saxon, in lat. 49 54 north, 59.33 west. The Indian was detained 12 hours in the ice. She spoke the Nile, of Glasgow, bound for Batavia, abreast of Torry Island, By the Indian we have files of Quebec and Mon treal papers to the 21st of June, and from them we learn that on the 1911], the House of Assembly concurred in the resolutions appropriating 4,000,000 acres of land for the construction of the Quebec and Lake Huron railroad—Yeas, 56; Nays, 33. The concurrence of the house in Mr. Cayley's Grand Trunk resolutions was also taken, and the bill read a first time—majority, 16. The Religious Incorpoaations bill has been rejected in the Legis lative Council by a vote of Bto 5. We annex the latest report of the timber trade : The arrivals from sea have not been numerous of late, although, compared with last year to this date, there is a considerable increase in the amount of tonnage. A good number of vessels are due, and when they arrive they may give some animation to the trade, which is very dull, owing in a great measure to the unsatisfactory state of the market in a,gland. Rafts are daily arriving, and, until the last few days, have been taken pretty freely at prices varying from 411 to 7d for inferior to ordinary timber, very few superior having arrived; some sales of last year's timber have been made in the Raft at 'lid to 8&d. -.- Our weather continues dry, and, without doubt, much timber intended for the Quebec market will not get down this season. RED PINE is selling in small quantities at lld for 40 feet. Oak is selling by the dram at 181, and as yet very little has come to market, although the stock of old is large. ELM is in demand for 40 feet average, which brings our highest quotation in shipping order. TAMARAC is dull, both for square and flatted, while ash and birch are scarce and enquired for. SravEs—although dull of sale—are held firmly at £62 lOs to 462 for all pipe, and £l6 for West India. DEALS are high, especially for Ist quality, but it is difficult to effect sales by the specification. FREIGHTS are dull, vessels having been taken at 29s for Liverpool; but for London they are in better request at .45 15s.

Mr. Claudet had the honour of daguerreotyping a group at Gloucester-house on Monday, consisting of her Majesty, the Duchess of Gloucester, the Prince of Wales, and Princess Alice. __-...._ TRH RETURN OF THE GUARDS.—The third and remain ing battalion of the Guards is expected to arrive from the Crimea in the course of to-day, so that the public entry of the three battalions into London may be almost imme diately expected. The line of march at present intended is from the Nine Elms station, over Vauxhall-bridge, through some of the new Pimlico squares, along Victoria street, to Buckingham Palace, and thence by Constitution hill to Hyde-park. As soon as the Guards have reached their destination, the Queen will, we believe, proceed in a carriage to Hyde-park, and the Brigade, 3,000 strong, will be there inspected by her Majesty. DEATH OF THE EARL OF CORK.—The death of a noble man in his 89th year is not a subject of surprise ; tut the Earl of Cork was favoured with such excellent health, that until within the last two months his death was not apprehended. Within that period, however, his health has been failing, and at six o'clock on Sunday evening he died in London. His lordship was the oldest member of the peerage, and :one of the oldest, if not the oldest, on the army list. He has enjoyed the title since 1796, and was in command, as Major-General of the Southern Dis trict, so far back as 1804. His: estates were extensive and his tenants found in hi m a goo d and liberal landlord,, while to charitable institutions he was a generous con tributor. He is succeeded by his grandson, Viscount Dungarvan, whose elevation to the earldom creates a vacancy in the representation of Frome. His lordship, in 1853, married Lady Emily, second daughter of the Marquis of Clanricarde. COUNTY COURT.—Yesterday, T. S. Raffles, Esq , in the absence of the judge, J. Pollock, Esq., presided in this court. Upwards of 120 cases were disposed of, none of which possessed the slightest public interest. ACCIDENT AT THE NORTH-END IRON WORKS.—Yester. day, William M'Cann, a labourer, employed at Messrs Pearson's iron works, had his leg fractured, by some heavy weights of iron falling upon him. ACCIDENT AT ST. GEOIIGE'W DOCK.—Yesterday afternoon, as a very aged man whose name, we understand, is Ralph Porter, was passing over one of the bridges at the north end of St. George's Dock, he missed his footing and fell into the well, and was much injured. He was immediately conveyed to the Northern Hospital, when it was discovered that he had received a severe scalp wound, besides con tusions in various parts of the body. It is feared that he will not recover. _ _ W. Tetley, and G. F. Collier, _ J. e ßyder hants a ; ti d m. DISSOLUTIONS of PARTN P ER e s r ii n y m .

SERIOUS INJURY FROM CARELESSNES.— Yest erd ay, a most serious a cc id ent occurred to a cal r, named Robert H a ll, w h o li ves in Rose Vale, by will.;11 he will, in all probability, lose the sight of one of his eyes. It occurred in the following manner :—Hall was engaged in unloading a cart at one of the warehouses in Dutton. street, when the iron eye of the rope dropped out, while at a considerable elevation, and struck him on the eve. The unfortunate man was taken to the Northern Hos pital, and every as6istance was paid to him, but, as we have already stated, without any hope of the preservation of the injured eye.. SPAIN, A despatch from Madrid, bearing date the Ist instant, mentions that on that day the Cortes would be prorogued. THE FRENCII FUNDS PARIS, WEDNESDAY EVENING The Three per Cents at the close of the trans actions on the Bourse today were quoted at 72f• FRANCE. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, TUESDAY EVENING The Emperor left this afternoon by the Strasburg , ra ilway for Nancy, from whence he will proceed to rlombieres for the benefit of the waters. He is a ccompanied by his aides de camp, Generals Fleury and Espinasse. The Cardinal Legate Monseigneur Patrizzi, took his departure for Rome this morning. He went by the Lyons railway, and stopped at Fontainbleau to breakfast. The Emperor has presented him with the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honour, with the decorations in brilliants; the Emperor has made him a present of valuable Sevres' porcelain. The Corps Legislatif in its sitting of to-day adopted the bill for conferring three pensions of £B,OOO each on the families of the daughters of the late King Louis Philippe. It also adopted the bill for forming a network of railways in the depart ments of the Pyrenees. It postponed the discus sion of the bill for enabling the Emperor to grant donations to a certain amount. In the sitting of yesterday the bill on companies, en commandite, (limited liability) was adopted. There has been some idle talk about the Russian Government having thought of nominating M. de Kisselieff, its Ambassador in this city ; but I can assure you with tolerable confidence, that there is no ground for it. Indeed, as M. de Kisselieff was Ambassador here when the war broke out, he would hardly be a fit man to select now that peace is concluded. The Bourse has not been so favourable to day as had been expected, owing to money from reports (continuations) not being any thing like so plenti ful as had been expected The Vicomte Th. du Moncel has brought out a new edition of his very remarkable work, entitled Expose des Applications de l' Electricite. This work, as its title imports, treats of the various practical applications of electricity in mechanical and useful arts, in telegraphic communications, in apparatus for preventing accidents on railways, in science and medicine, &1., &e. It is ornamented with excellent plans, and contains the results of the experiments and study not only of the Vicomte du Moncel himself, but of a great number of distinguished savans and inventors. The work is of the greatest importance to all who occupy themselves with electricity, and espe cially to those who seek new applications of that wondrous agent. A translation of the book into English would, I should think, be very useful. An arrival from Constantinople, with dates of the 23rd ult., brings the news that the English have evacuated Kertch, and that M. Boutenieff is to be the Russian Ambassador to the Porte. P.S.—lt is now considered quite certain that the Emperor, before returning to Paris, is to have a conference with the Emperor of Austria some where on the S wiss frontier. PARIS, MONDAY EVENING. Of political news there is a scarcity to-day, and it is probable that nothing of any importance is expected to occur for some little time as the Em peror goes out of town to-morrow, the Minister of Finance, M. Magne the day after tomorrow, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Count Walewski, on Thursday, whilst the Minister of Public Instruc tion, M. Fortoul, has already left. All the great official dignitaries, most of the members of the corps diplornatique, and a great number of political personages, are also escaping as fast as they can from this hot and dusty city. M. Baroche, Presi dent of the Council of State, is likely to take the ad interim administration of the Foreign depart ment; M. Fould, Minister of State, that of the Finance department ; and the Minister of War, Marshal Valliant, that of Public Instruction. The newspapers record a sad affair—the arrest of a canon of the cathedral of Versailles, on the charge of having caused the death of a young woman, by means of an operation of a very delicate nature, calculated to prevent her pregnancy by him from becoming known. _ _ _ _ A solemn service for the repose of the soul of Madame de Girardin, wife of the celebrated editor of the Presse, has been celebrated to-day in the church of Chaillot, this being the first anniversary of her death. It was attended by her husband and a number of political, literary, and artistic celebrities. I have heard some vague talk of an intention, existing on the part of Prince Napoleon, to take measures to prevent his father's son, by his first wife, with Mrs. Patterson, of the United States, from calling himself Bonaparte. The ground on which the Prince takes his stand is this :—lf Mr. Bona parte has the right to call himself Bonaparte, the marriage between Mrs. Patterson and Prince Jerome, the father, was valid ; and in that case Mr. Bonaparte is the eldest son and heir of old Jerome —he, Prince Napoleon, being only the elder by a subsequent marriage. But, considering that the marriage between Jerome and Mrs. Patterson was declared void by the first Napoleon, and has always, for political purposes, been so considered since—considering, too, that if it v".me not void, Jerome's subsequent marriage was null, and his son Napoleon, born of it, is illegitimate, I cannot, • for my part, believe that, in spite of what is said, any attempt to deprive Mr. Bonaparte of his name really exists. The American Legation, at Paris, has commu nicated to the newspapers here, the message of President Pierce, announcing the dismissal of Mr. Crampton, and the documents which accompanied it. MURDER AT MANCHESTER, Two brothers, named Andrew and James Bracken, were brought before the city magistrates at Manchester on Monday, charged with killing William Bates, a mechanic, on Saturday evening last. The deceased was stated to be about 40 years of age, and to have recently come to Rochdale in search of employment, and it would appear that he met with his death under circumstances or great barbarity, having been casually involved in a street brawl, and murderously assaulted by those who had no previous knowledge of or against him. Ellen Smith said, about nine o'clock on Saturday evening she saw the two prisoners fighting with another man in the street, at the corner of a beershop called the Brown Cow. They got the man into the shop, left him there, and then returned to the street, demanding who would face them. They struck ene man, who ran away, and then another man, who also ran away. A tall man (the deceased Bates) then came up, and the prisoners knocked him down. He got up and went into the middle of the street, but the prisoners followed him, and Andrew Bracken knocked him down again. The other prisoner kicked him on the head, and Andrew joined in the kicking. Witness made some remonstrance, and Andrew Bracken replied that he would kill him. The blood was then flowing from Bates's ears. Witness then went down Medlock-street, and saw no more of the matter. In cross examination she stated that she was within two yards of the man when James Bracken kicked him. There was a great crowd round, and Andrew Bracken was in his shirt sleeves, as though ready to fight. The affair lasted about a quarter of an 11' ur. Other witnesses gave corrobora tive evidence, and an inquest was held on the body by Mr. Albany Fonblanquo, deputy-coroner for the city, when Mr. Forster, house surgeon at the Chorlton Dispensary, stated that the deceased died from fracture of the skull, which ruptured a blood vessel, and caused extensive effusion on the brain. He had received six cuts, with bruises underneath some of them. The jury returned a verdict of wilful murder against James and Andrew Bracken, who were committed for trial at the assizes. IMPORTANT DECISION AFFECTING /I AI LWAYS THE LANCASHIRE AND YORKSHIRE RAIL WAY COMPANY V. TILE EAST LANCASIIIRE COMPANY, This was a writ of error from a judgment of the Court of Exchequer, which carne before the House of Lords and the Judges on Appeal, and was heard on Monday last. The facts we-•e as follows:—The Manchester and Bolton Railway Company, through their authorised agents, entered into an agreement in November, 1843, with the authorised agents of a company called the Bury and Rossendale Railway, that the latter company should have the use of their station at Salford, on such terms as three indifferent persons might determine, and their traffic should be carried on at their own cost as to carriages, &c.; and that they should pay to the Manchester and Bolton Company for the use of their railway, and in respect of the traffic thereon specified, a pro rata propor tion, according to the distance passed over the two lines respectively, of all and singular the gross rates and pro ceeds arising from such traffic, and that the Manchester company would subscribe towards the making of the Bury and Rossendale Railway. The Manchester and Bolton Company has now, by amalgamation, become the Lanca shire and Yorkshire, and the Bury and Rossendale in the same manner has grown into the East Lancashire Railway Company, and the sole question between the parties is, whether the agreement to run in this manner, and on these terms, over a portion of the Lancashire and York shire, continues in force after these extensions and amal gamations. The Lancashire and Yorkshire, at a trial in the Court of Exchequer, obtained a verdict in their favour. The case was argued in the Exchequer Chamber in Jan., 11354, and describing,andjudg the positionmentwasfort of theheEast parties, Lancashire. said The court, that " these extensions of the East Lancashire line, and con sequent increase of the traffic which they . bring upon the the agreement, and the greater use which the make of the portion of the Lancashire and Ytowhrhkti party lhhi passesr line, insists, spoken rwo htvhee stations, with the greater accommolation they required t traffic Oneffio of that for its reception and disposal, give rise to the question we agreement is limited to the original line, the other contends that c a o t. inm. t now e h n e c r: a s g b h o o r t u extends x n ttdoesn on n s e c a t i o: yae partl original line, from or to Manchester, whether its transit comes from or goes to any station upon any part of the new . and extension lines. The court below were of opinion with the . Lancashire and Yorkshire, and we have come, upon consideration, to the opposite conclusiun." The case was argued . on Monday, and their lordships delivered their unanimous decision, affirming the judgment of the Court of Exchequer Chamber. The Lord- Chancellor agreed with . the learned judges, and moved the house to affirm the judgment of the court. Judgment accordingly. t a rh t t o ehr f t e h ii i retn SCHOOL TREAT.—Yesterday, the !boys connected with the Orphan's Asylum, in Myrtle-street, were treated with an excursion to Eastham.

Mr, VANCE opposed the commitment of the bill. present law gave sufficient power to creditors over unfortunate debtors. After some remarks from Mr. HADFIELD, Mr. CRAW' FORD, and Mr. DEASY, the 'amendment was withdrawn, and the bill ordered to be committed on Wednesday next. BLEACHING, &C., WORKS (NO. 2) BILL. The debate on the second reading of this bill, wasi resumed by Mr. BAXTER, who said he was not prepared to argue the question of the non-interference of the Legislature between master and servant, but stated his objections to the House proceeding further this session with the bill. All the masters on the east coast of Scotland had peti tioned against it, and so had sections of the operatives. He objected to Mr. Tremenhere's report, on which the bill was based, and the manner in which he had taken the evidence, as one-sided and partial. The hours of labouf did not now exceed those proposed by the bill, and so far' from occupyine. 60 hours a week, as s t a t e d i n t h e repor t / did not amount' to 50 hours a week. The honourable'. member entered into many of the difficulties with whiclt the manufacturers had to contend against, especially iron , the weather, and said that unless the hon. and learned member for Youghall postponed the bill and obtained further information on what he proposed to legislate, the bill in its present form would inflict material an serious injury on an important branch of trade. The provisions of the bill showed that those who had drawn it up were not conversant with the subject. One of the effects of the bill would be to substitute female for male labour. Colonel DUNNE supported the second reading of t Mr. DuNcAN opposed the bill on the ground that uncalled for, and would not act benefiAally f operatives. Mr. Muaaouog supported the bill, and compl the conduct of hon. members who expressed thch rence of slavery abroad, but did not trouble the about the slavery that existed in this country. upon the House to rescue the operatives in bleach dying works from the slavery they were subjec these works. Sir J. GRAHAM thought there was no good to be by lengthening the discussion on this subject, be would be impossible to pass the measure at this let of the session. Much benefit would resat from d , further consideration of the measure. The bill be House did not correspond with Mr. Tremanhere'. which bore on the face of it errors of so grave and a character that, if the bill rested on it he (Sir J.

I desirous of consulting the health, comfort, hap and wealth of the working classes, but if they tu tionally and accidentally inflicted an injury on tr. legislation of this kind, instead of conferring the they wished on the operatives, they would be indieth manent evils, the effect of which on the working ( would be of the greatest magnitude, and such as the) not foresee. The bleaching trade of this countr open to the keen competition of foreign rivals, whi admitted by Mr. fremanhere, and the error into that gentleman had fallen, appeared to be this whilst admitting the keenness of that competitic admitted that by following his advice the cost of pi tion would be increased ten per cent, and the in article one per cent. That Mr. Tremanhere consi would have but a trifling effect on the trade. On a •• - of trade, he (Sir J. Graham) was not disposed to follogl blindfolded the advice of Mr. Tremanhere, for if it bo foh lowed in this instance, he (Sir J. Graham) predicted with confidence, that by a hasty and wild legislation, theY, would ensure the sacce ss o f t h e trade of Saxony ana Bavaria, the rivals of this country. He suggested 010,, the question should b e properly i nvestigated by a sele ct committee. To appoint such a committee at this period of the session, would be a delusion and a farce, and be thought it better to postpone going into a committee for six months. (Hear.)

He called upon the House to affirm the principle o; the bill by a second reading, to show the House was in 9 position to legislate on the subject, if they refused after to proceed further with it this session.
