THE DAY'S NEWS.

In the House of Commons, yesterday, on the
motion that the House go into committee on the
Aggravated Assaults Bill, Lord Enfield moved,
as an amendment, that the House do go into com-
mittee that day three months. Mr. Hardy sup-
ported the amendment. After some discussion,
Sir G. C. Lewis observed that these excessive
punishments only defeat their own objects by
preventing prosecution. The Attorney-General
read letters from several police magistrates, stating
their opinion that the punishment of wife beating
by flogging is only aggravating the evil. After
some further debate the House divided, when the
amendment was carried by 174 to 57. The bill
was therefore lost. The second reading of the
Valuation of Lands (Scotland) Amendment Bill,
the object of which was to assess the land after
the nett, and not the gross, rental, was negatived
by 116 to 69. The Felony and Misdemeanour
Bill, the object of which was to allow the counsel
for the prisoner to reply after the evidence had
been given, was read a second time. The
adjourned debate on the second reading of the
Ecclesiastical Commission Bill was cut short by
the House. Several other bills were forwarded,

and notices given.
By extraordinary express, in anticipation of
the Overland Mail, we have received letters and
papers from Bombay to the 24th May. The
The following is from the Bombay Times and
Standard of that date :—The last Bombay mail
having left us no longer ago than Sunday, the
13th inst., we have but ten days' intelligence,
and that of the most humdrum character, to
summarise. The one topic of the press is still
" the income tax," and the propriety of enforcing
it in a country situated as India is.

The cry of a suffering nationality comes to us
from Bosnia. In this Christian province of
Turkey, if we can believe a report in the Nord
of Brussels, the Turks have just now delivered
themselves up to a paroxysm of fury against the
Christian inhabitants. Thousands of the latter
have been thrown into prison without reason, and
a dozen or two of the chief of them—priests and
proprietors—have been cut off, it is supposed, by
poison. It is just possible, however, that these
atrocities are exaggerated.
Garibaldi has already five or six steam vessels,
either bought or hired. Attempts are now
being made to arm them, and next week we
shall see the game in full chase after the hunts-
man. Before leaving Palermo, Garibaldi wishes
to organise the defence of the island, so that the

native troops ituly be aile to theiiground
against the army of 20,006 ineni which the
Neapolitan Governnierit is preparing to concen-
trate on Messina, On the mainland there will
disembark none bit the braVe Volunteers of
NOrtherti Italy) who are docking to fight under
the banner of the " Unity of Italy," raised by his
Excellency the Filibuster. By the way, we are
told, one sees now upon all the houses of Sicily,
as upon those of Central Italy last autumn, " We
demand annexation to the kingdmri of Victor
Emthanuel !" " Long live Victor Enimaniiel,
our King !" The Sardinian officers who are in
the harbour of Palermo dare not lani, for fear
of the ovations they would receive. Generally
speaking, the officers of foreign vessels land but
rarely. The Austrians never. The Italian clergy
are behaving admirably. The Archbishop of
Palermo has paid several visits to Garibaldi ; he
has contributed a large sum to the national
subscription for the defence of the island ;
and sent four of his horses fcr the same
service. He is highly respected by the people.
7,000 Neapolitans, commanded by Marshal
Afan de Rivera, have quitted Catania, after
having pillaged it for twenty-four hours. These
troops have gone to Messina, together with a
large body of cavalry who were in the environs,
and they are about to start for Reggio, to take
up their quarters in the entrenched camp which
has been formed there. In the skirmish which
took place at Catania considerable losses were
sustained on both sides.

It will be remembered that a week or two ago
we reported the proceedings which had been insti-
tuted by the Captain of the Surrey Volunteers
against the lessee of the Kennington toll-gate
for having required three members of that corps
who were returning home from drill in a cab to
pay the toll. This demand was held to be an
infraction of an Act of George IV., by which
volunteers in going to or returning from their
place of exercise, or while employed on public
duty, should be exempt from the payment of
tolls. Mr. Elliott has delivered his judgment in
this important case, and decided that the act was
only intended to apply to carriages which had
been used in the performance of some public duty,
such as the conveyance of baggage or stores, or of
sick or wounded soldiers. For these reasons he
dismissed the summons. One of the complainants
asked for permission to appeal, and this having
been granted, the case will no doubt furnish
ample material for numerous hair-splitting argu-
ments in the Court of Queen's Bench.

The invention of a new clock upon the prin-
ciple of the thermometer by pressure of air upon
mercury, is making a great sensation in Paris.
The cost of the clock, which goes twenty-four
hours, and then has only to be turned like the
hour glass) is no more than a franc. M. Babinet,
is said to be the inventor of this ingenious appa-
ratus, and as he is generous enough to have
refused to take out a patent, it is announced that
in a few days Paris will be inundated with atmos-
pheric clocks, which will enable every man to
know the time of day with the smallest outlay
possible.
Lord Palmerston, it seems, is now at direct
issue with a portion, at least, of his usual sup-
porters. The strong objection that is felt on the
Ministerial benches to the proposed house-to-
house inquisition into the " religious pro-
fession" of the population in the census of
1861, has found expression in a meeting of
Liberal members, convened by Mr. Baines.
About fifty gentlemen responded to the invita-
tion, comprising not only Dissenting M.P.'s, but
many members of the Church of England and the
representatives of Scotch constituencies. The
meeting was quite unanimous in favour of the
adoption of a memorial to the Prime Minister,
requesting him to withdraw that provision of the
Census Bill. Several members spoke of the
strong indignation that prevailed amongst their
constituents against the scheme, and others
complained of ,the unprecedented course taken
by Lord Palmerston in entering into
a compact with the leader of the Oppo-
sition against his own supporters. Most of
those present at once signed the memorial, and
we believe that, before it is presented, it will
have received the signatures of a great majority
of the independent supporters of the Government.
The Star says: "For his own sake, and that of
the Liberal party, Lord Palmerson cannot too
soon abandon an obnoxious High Church propo-
sal, which, if persisted in, will create disunion in
the Ministerial ranks, and pave the way for a dis-
ruption of the Cabinet."
The case of Stone v. Lord Llanover came on in
the Court of Queen's Bench yesterday. It is an
action to recover damages for slander, it being
alleged that the defendant had charged the plain-
tiff with the commission of an unnatural offence.
Sir F. Kelly and others appeared for the plaintiff►
and Mr. Edwin James and another for defendant.
The plaintiff had formerly been an officer in the
Enniskillen Dragoons, had kept race-horses, and
at present resided at Bath. The plaintiff was
examined yesterday.

THE VOLUNTEER REVIEW AT CHESTER.

THE most imposing display of the Volunteer
force which has yet been witnessed out of London,
was beheld yesterday, at Chester, by tens of
thousands of spectators, from all parts of the
country, embracing Peers, spiritual and temporal,
and Commoners of the highest civil and military
positions, and of every variety and grade of middle
and even of lower class of life. Yesterday's review
at Chester was a great fact in the history of the
noble Volunteer movement. The unanimous
opinion of all who were present, including that
of military men, bred in the strictest schools of
training and discipline, constituted one grand
triumphant proof in favour of the success of this
great patriotic effort for self-defence. We might
exhaust every form of eulogism in describing the
details of the military evolutions performed by the
troops, and the spirit-stirring effect these produced
upon the vast concourse of spectators, without exag-
geration. There arose, occasionally, from the far-
spread but densely crowded spaces commanding
the view, a deep murmur of satisfaction, like the
low and distant roar of many waters, as the more
skilful field operations were observed with admir-
ing astonishment. For instance, when the left bat-
talion advanced in line while the right was firing,
and halted within twenty yards of it, formed four
deep, to allow the right battalion to pass through
—and then reformed two deep, and took up
the firing,—every eye was gratified with the
beautiful precision of the skilful manoeuvre,
and very heart beat high with proud
consciousness that the men who had attained
so much perfection in drill, at so much
cost of time and means, were not mere mercenary
machines ; but of, and belonging to, themselves
—their own friends and equals—in the highest
sense their own fellow-countrymen. Or, again,
who could fail to appreciate and applaud the ex-
cellent and effective manner in which these newly-
organised corps fixed swords, and prepared to
receive
cavalry—whether in battalions,lN
or in the
echelon forming company squares ? lether in
open column or in line, in marching or in
skirmishing., in wheeling or
deploying, or in
any other of their more complicated
operations,
the Volunteers yesterday wer© the subject
of
universal and unqualified approval
and delight.
The individual appearance and conduct of the
men were equally proof to the most severe criticism.

It is scarcely possible, however, to participate
in such an occasion, and listen to all that passes
among the hundreds with whom we are brought
into contact at such a great meeting as
that of yesterday Without being convinced
