After • few remarks by hit. SLANCT and Admiral

Mr. CRAWFORD &eked the Secretary of State for Inilie

nc ipto and es lesaliture ; or whether it arrow front the
falling if of the evailable sources of income or increue
of expenditure in India.
Sir C. Wool), in reply. explained that large fund.
had to be provided iii England for the seisms of
India, and, on the ether hand, the main portion of
the means Totluired for railroads in ludi riniuired large
remittance,. to India, which were paid into. coil drawn

1:2,750.000 churl of what he had expected, an 1 he hail,
therefore, found it necesstry to exercise the power
given by Parliament feat FM:scion. As to tile bulk of
the expenditure in Inilie. he was happy to say that
there was tie necessity for borrowing • single shilling.
The expenditure had he... very considerably reduced
oincti he had lut addressed the House upon this sub-
ject. Trot military expenditure would be reduced in
the course of the year £3.300.000, following a reduc•
lion but year of £3.500.1100, making a total reduction
in the connre of two years of k 6,800.000 ; and next

the income and expenditure would be *lomat balanced.
Mr. S. FITZAARALD. adverting to what he conceived
to be oniisciona in the !loyal Speech on the eubject of
foreign affairs, referred to the two deiltatches of Lord
.1. Rouen of August and October. He did not com-
plain, he said. cif the Government ethiptiug the prin-
ciple of non-intervention. but he complained of their

principle while they published documents incormietent
with it, and whieli menaced intervention. The deepatch
of October was utterly incowdstent with that of August.
It proclaisowl the dangerous doctrine that the lo••Ple
were the judges whether they he.l good canoe of com-
plaint against their Sovereign or not. ant that a
Government or people who torsieted them in reoiating
their Sovereign would be guilty of no infraction of in-
ternational law —a doctrine which, he contended, was
incompatible with non•Mtervention.
Lord .1. RIPWICLL observed that hi. deopatch of
October had beau miserbetrued by Mr. Fitsg. ral.l. It
was absurd to lay down • general rule applicable to all
cues, and to place the redstanee of peoples to their
Sovereigns in one and the bailie category. Every cue
