"EXTRACT OF PARLIAMENT."
In the House of TAirls on 'Monday night, toed
WAVENFY moved an address to Her Majesty to invite
the co-operation of the Governments of the maritime
States in maintaining the security of commerce in the
Mediterranean. His lordship expressed a tear it would
be impossible to ',realise the Eastern war. The Earl
of DEBBY declined to enter into a discussion upon the
topics touched upon by the noble lord, lint sail the
Government was alive to the importance of the subject
mentioned, lie hoped the motion would not he
pressed. The subject was subsequently withdrawn.
On Tuesday the Duke of RFTLAND called attention
to the despatch of Lord Derby in answer to Prince
Gortschacoli's Circtilar, and expressed his opinion
that it was conched in much stronger language than
the occasion demanded. The Earl of DERRY defended
the language of the I leopateh, which he considered
justified by the cirenmstances under which it was
written. He deprec ited the practice of night after
night call tng upon Ministers to expresa opinions %Kind e.
licatequestions of international practice. Earl Granville
made some observations in ,lef ence of the course which
the Duke of Rutland had taken; and after a few
words from the Lord Chancellor the subject dropped.
The Solicitors' Examination Bill was read a second
time. The South African Bill and the Public Records
Office Bill passed through committee.
Thursday being Ascension Day the House of Loris
did not meet.
On Friday the Duke of Sr. AtRANI mered the
iiscmil reading of the Railway Companies Somata'
Bill, which, after some discussion, was withdrawn.
The House of Commons was crowded on Monday
evening in expectation of a great debate on Mr. Glad.
stone's Resolutions. An unexpected and extraordinary
scene tcok place. Mr. Gladstone, yielding to the
solicitations of his friends, withdrew his third and
fourth Resolutions, and consented to a modification of
the second. In support of the proposals thus amended
Mr. Gtanwronr delivered an elaborate speech. Sir
H. D. WOLFF moved the previous question, and was
followed by Mr. CIiIMBERLAIS, who hoped the policy
indicated by the Resolutions might prevail. Mr.
CROSS spoke next, and defended the policy of the
Cabinet. Ile emphatically condemned the mineral*
of Turkey, and unequivocally declared that our
Government would do nothing to protect the Porte.
On Tuesday the debate was resumed by Mr.
CHILDERS, who was followed by several members. Mr.
ROEIVYCK, who addressed the House from the Liberal
side. uggegted that Mr. Gladstone was no longer
worthy the respect of hon. members, and declared
that the time would come when the country would
acknowledge how wise and good were the Govern-
ment. After a few words from the Arroitstrv-
GENERAL, Mr. LOWE traced the exciting state of
affairs to the "constant mistakes, the useless conceal-
ment, and the unnecessary swaggering and bravado of
Ministers." Lord JOHN MANNERS replied in favour
of the Government, and the debate was adjourned to
Thursday.
On Wednesday the County Court Jurisdiction Bill,
the second, the reading of which was moved hy SirJ.
Eardley Wilmot, was negatived without a division.
The Bar cf England and of Ireland Bill, which came
on for second reading, was withdrawn. Mr. Biggar's
bill to improve the mode of preparing the lists of voters
in Ireland was rejected by 125 to 99.
On Thursday the debate on Mr. Gladstone's resolu-
tions was resumed by Mr. Courtney, who recom-
mended a policy of force, and the gradual dismember-
ment of the Ottoman Empire. He also advocated an
alliance with Russia. Mr. Chaplin defended Lord
Beaconsfield from the charge of having treated the
Bulgarian outrages with levity. The policy of
England in the present crisis ought, he thought, to he
one of strict neutrality and preparedness. Russia
ought not to be allowed to set foot in Constantinople
while England hail a man or a gun to prevent it, and
we were bound to keep the highway to India open if
we had to sweep the Meditterranean to do it. Mr. M.
Henry, Mr. Hubbard and Mr. Forsyth. having
addressed the House, Sir R. Peel gave Mr. Gladstone
credit for sincerity and earnestness, but strongly
condemned the atrocity agitation which he got up, end
described it as mischievous in itself and ungenerous to
the Government He recommended the Ministers to
adhere to their policy of strict neutrality, but to
prepare, if necessary, to protect British interests, and
prevent at all hazards the advance of Russia to the
13osphorons. Mr. Forster, while admitting that the
claim of Turkey to the moral support of this country
was established by the Treaty of 1856 argued that elm
had forfeited that claim by her subsequent conduct.
He maintained that the condition of the Christie&
population in Turkey would be greatly improved
under the Government of Russia. He strongly
condemned the language used by Lord Derby in reply
to the Circular of Prince Gortschakoff, and said that
the tone of the despatch of the Foreign Secretary
indicated danger of war between England and RUSRII,
and fully accounted for the fall in the funds at every
Bourse in Europe. The debate was then adjourned.
On Friday the debate on the Eastern Question was
resumed by Mr. Bourke. the principal speakers being
Lord Elcho, Sir John Lubbock, Mr. Walter, and Mr.
Goschen. The debate was adjourned to Monday, the
Marquis of Hartington expressing a hope that it would
close that night
