In the Hones of Commons- on Friday Sir Stafford
Northoote refined to give Sir J. Glo'Amid an oppor•
snotty for discuaring the Ministerial policy in
relation to Egypt, and proceeded to move 'ha
second reading of the 'East India Lain Bill.
Having sketched the position of Indian finance,
which he rid was embarrassed by the cost of the
Afghan war and the mete of the ee=l
he said the Government proposed to offer
temporary loan of £2,000.000 repayable without
interest in seven years by annual instalments.—Mr.
F•wc•titiZtvoted against the system of throwing
upon burtheris which had arisen from the
Imperial polly, and ought to be borne by Imperial
shoalders. Mr moved • rmolutiou affirming the
Injustice of making India pay towards the expenses
of the Afghan war seven times as much as would be
contributed by the United Kingdom.—Mr. Laing,
Sir G. Campbell, Hr. Great Duff, Sir Goons Balfour,
and Mr. Goechen ado condemned the policy of the
Government and the Mimetic* of ita proposal.—Mr.
Stanhope denied that the Government had ever
admitted that the war way dictated by their European

proving. Childers remarked that if Mr. Stwritin.he :s-
-had correctly deecribed the views of the Government
all justification for a ken without interest disappenred.
—After some further &bete, Sir Stafford Northcote
said it was undesirable that a deficit should exist In
the Indian finances, and the Government thought it
beet to offer this heLp to tide over a temporary
difficulty. Mr. Gladstone strongly opposed the
as indefensible on any theory that could
re =Teti, but it was especially objectionable
because the annul expenditure on the war would be
concealed in the public accounts.—On a division, the
amendment was rejected by the narrow majority of
137 aged/set 125.—The bill was then read • second
time. —Mr. Stanhope then moved the second reading
of the East India Loan (11,000,(B0) Bill, but an
amendment was moved by Sir G. Campbell, and the
debate had to be adjourned under the standing order.
In the evening a lengthj discussion took place on the
case of • man named Galley, who was sentenced to
transportation many years ev at Exeter, but is now
believed by Lord Chief Ju-Mos Cockburn and others
to have been innocent of any crime.—Sir E. Wilmot's
motion for an Address to the Crown, advising the
pardon of the convict, was eventually modified and
agreed to.

and captain W. C. Yates and Lieutenant Rooks. of the

Mr. Vs, were apprehensive of the defendants
getting into their rooms at night. By way of securing

fashion that if any one touched theme bell would be set
