Glucksburg, and the Duke of Cambridge. The di,-
teens. was oommenord by Mr. Pi Cochrane,who moved
for an address for farther correspoodenee on the sob-
pan of Greece, stating that, as the unguarante-d debt
of Grams to this country amounted to £7,000,000, and
the guaranteed delkt to £2.000,000, the people of Eng-
land might naturally be expected to take a deep lolanda
in the welfare of that country. He maintained that
Government had Abeen neither juat nor generous
towards the Greeks, who had been deceived and trilled
with in their efforts to obtain • constitutional Sovereign,
and regretted that Place Alfred had not been allowed
to accept the offeredithrotte. Mr. Gregory co-melded
that Government had Jed the Greeks astray. but eon-
ceived that the time had come when We ought to with-
draw oar support of the Turkish calcite, nem lend
aristanee to the Christian popnlatioa in MON regions.

ment.

late disgraceful outrages at Cork. Sir &bort Peel re-
plied that wine persons had been arrested, and would
be tried according to the ordinary course .4th. law.
Govermitent had also offered a reward of £5O for the '
apprehension of say persons actively engaged in the
not. Mr. Soma moved for leave to bring in a Bill for
the purpose of altogether closing publinhonies on Sun-
day. and obtained it hr • majority of /41 to 52. Sir
George Grey was unwilling to take the unusual wane
of opposing the introduction of a Bill, but would hold
out no hope of supporting the Bill in its further Mages,
unless under very considerelde modilleations, Kr.
Roebuck ennounoed that if the Bill passed a second
marling, he should move a clause for shutting up the
Club. on Sundays. XL W. Fester moved for a select
eonamittee to consider the operation of the existing
Game TAWS. He found that poaching was on the
incr.-axe. aid that its demoraltring effects were in-
creased by the existing laws. Sir G. Grey was willing
to support the motion, which he considered reasonable
and called for, but the majority rejected it. Mr. Roe-
buck moved for sundry returns **Deeming applications
for the Royal hawse to shaven patronymic., referring
to the well-known ease of Mr. Jones, or Herbert, of
Clytha. The SolicitorGoneral said there was so positive
law on the subject. People might alter their names if
they like, and get recognition if they couhl. Oficial*
were bound to recognise the change when it became •
matter of common reputation ; but no ow was,bottad to
aid in recognising the name while yet • matter of un-
certainty or dispute. This wenn to be pretty much the
doctrine that the European Powers apply to the Con'
federate States of America.

this afternoon. Mr. Parrand gave notice that on Friday
he would ask the Goternment whether they were will-

time which be had made during the debate on Greece

to • ramose that it had been intended to replace Sir

formed not only that that rumour was wholly US-
founded, but that Mr. Elliott'. family were very much
pained at the remarks he had made. He DOW apologised,
expressing hie belief that Mr. Elliott was a most
honourable and deserving servant of the Crown. The
Chancellor of the Exchequer then moved that the
House go into a weeemittee on the Tobacco Duties 1301.
In doing so he appealed to Mr. Aynon not to mese his
motion for referring the bill to • select committee, on
time ground that such • coarse was wheal), seetrary to
precedent, and would occasion injurious delay in passing
of the IDOWWID. Mr. Ayrton, however, declined to
accede to the request, and moved that the ball be re-
ferred tea West essmaittee. After some discussion Mr.
