WEDNESDAY.

Several Bills of a public and private nature were
forwarded • stage. after which their Lordships adjourned
at 25 uxinutes to 6 o'clock.

THURSDAY.
On the motion for passing the East India Loan Bill
through committee,
The I)ake of ARGYLL made • statement on the pre-
sent state of the Indian finances, similar to that made by
Sir C. Wood in the House of Commons. One came of
pleasure, be observed, amid surrounding difficulties, was
that the revenue of India had been increasing annually,
and had not even decreased during the year of the
upitiny. The only scierce of reduction was in militazy
expenditure, which could be the more readily effected,
as we had no longer any foes to contend with in India.
By judicious reductions in the array, by disarming the
people, and by forbidding them to cast artillery, he con-
sidered that the expenditure of India might be reduced ,
to the point at which it stood before the mutiny.
Lord ELLIENBOROUtiII supported the Bill as being
identical with one he had formerly himself proposed,
and because Le did not think the estimated revenue for
the coming year would be realized. Deprecating strongly
the system of guarantees as being to a great extent the
cause of the financial embarrassments in India, he con-
gratulated the Government on their manifest desire to
apply a cure to the present evil by the appointment of
Mr. Wilson as a kind of Chancellor of the Exchequer.
The remedy for these evils did not consist in increasing
taxation, but in ilimiminisiming expenses.
Lord LYWEDLN could not separate the political from
the financial condition of India. The deficiency of the
Indian revenue had long struck him with alarm, and be
had always attributed it to the existence of the double
Government, which, although nouiinally abolished, still
existed.
The Bill was then passed through committee.
A conversation then ensued between the Duke of
SOMFRSKT and Lord ELLENBOROI-GH on the paming of
the Reserve Volunteer Force of Seamen Bill through
committee, during which the Duke of Somerset ex-
plained the object of the Bill.
The other orders of the day were then disposed of,
and their Lordships adjourned at five minutes to 8
o'clock.
Dorchester, Dorset, England, 1859-08-16

The subject then dropped.
Several Bills were advanced a stage, alter which the
HOOM) adjourned at half-past 7 o'clock.

TUESDAY.

Lord RIPON in moving the second reading of the
Militia Laws Amendment Bill, briefly explained the ob-
ject of the Bill.
Lord STRATFORD DC REDCLIFFE regretted the sus.
pension of the ballot for the Militia at a tune when
a large force was so much needed for the de-
fence of the country. In the present condition of
Europe, which he reviewed at some length, it VMS not
only necessary, but an absolute duty to have a sufficient
force to maintain our position and independence as a
nation. At present our position was not one of strength,
and as long as it remained so be earnestly hoped that we
should not enter into the Congress, as we should not
do credit to ourselves. nor exercise a beneficial influence
fur the interests of others.
Lon' KiNuminins pointed out the difficulties which
existed in finding men for the army, navy, and militia,
and insisted not only on the necessity of retaining the
ballot for the militia, but advocated • system which
differed in but few particulars from compulsory service,
or conscription.
Lord RIP,N, while he assured the House that the at-
tention of the Coveniment had been earnestly devoted
to the subject of procuring sufficient forces for the de.
fence of the country, deprecated the adoption of such
measures as these proposed by Lord Kinipdown, rape-
cislly in time of peace. lie thought it expeilient tore-
tamn the ballot as an extraordinary means for procuring
own, but was by no waits convinced that it would
meet with the approbation of the country under present
circumstances, because it would be difficult to distin-
guish it from the system of ,sinscription.
The Bill was then read a second time.
Their Lordships then adjourned at 10 minutes past 6
o'clock.

THK HIGHLAND AGRICULTURAL SOClETT.—Succeis

above the average; the sheep good; but in this elan
the Duke of Richmond's Sussex stock bore off the bell.
At the dinner on Wednesday evening the Duke of Atholl,
wearing the Highland garb, presided ; and in liii after-
dinner speech he described the meeting as "first-
rate."

RUSSIA.

Review OF THE FLEer.—Since the close of the war
the attention of the Grand Duke Constantine—the most
active-minded man in all RU511.6.--has been applied to
the development of the navy. He has visited every
dockyard in France, and has made himself practically
acquainted with all improvements in construction and
machinery. It is to his influence that Russia, owes the
Mediterranean port lately ceded by Sardinia. The fleet
is consequently no longer confined to the Baltic, where
naval manomvres were impossible during eight months of
the year, and where summer sailors only could be reared.
Steam vessels have been constructed on the best models
and at great expense, both in England and America.
During the war but one screw frigate, the Palkane,
remained motionless behind the batteries of Cronstadt,
hopelessly regarding the magnificent steam fleet of
Great Britain. On Saturday, the Zlrd ult., the Emperor,
accompanied by the tirand-Duke Constantine, Grand
Admiral, reviewed a fleet of 21 vessels, all propeUed by
steam, and the greater part screws.
The /inlaid( RtI4IC publishes an article insisting that
a Congress shall assemble for the settlement of the

Imperial parliament.

HOUSE OF LORDS.-MONDAY

Lord NORMANDY in rising to ask • question relating '
to the proposals for peace submitted to Austria by Her
Majesty's Government, expressed his belief that this
was the only country in which any mystery still ex-
isted in regard to the propositions of the peace of Villa-
franca. These propositions were popularly believed on
the continent to be the joint production of M. De Per.
signy and Lord Palmerston, and were considered dis-
creditable to our professed neutrality, which, had, in
the opinion of other Powers, been often violated. He
strongly deprecated any course by which England might
be mixed up with these differences, and hoped we
should not be parties to any Conference to settle Italian
affairs.
Lord Wommonsg stated, that some days before the
conclusion of peace at Villafnuica, the French Ambas-
sador gave Lout John Russell a statement concerning
the data on which France was willing to make peace
with Austria. Lord John Russell agreed to transmit
the document to the Austrian Minister, but did not give
any advice whatever in respect to it, as he did not think
the time arrived for Her Majesty's Government to in-
terfere with effect. If constitutional liberty should be
established in Italy it would be owing to Piedmont.
Lord NORMANHY asked Lord Granville whether the
transmission of the French proposals to Austria was or
was not the act of the Cabinet?
Lord GRANYlLLZanswered the question in the affirma-
tive. .

PARLIAMENTARY PAPERS.

VACCINATION.—An order has been issued from the
Privy Council-office stating, that whereas by the Public
Health Act of 18Ni the Pnvy Council are empowered to
issue regulations for securing the due qualification of all
persons to be contracted with by guardians and overseers
of unions and parishes in England for the vaccination
of persons resident in such unions and parishes, it is en-
acted "That no contract for vaccination shall be en-
tered into by such guardians or overseers, except with
a medical practitioner who shall be legally competent to
practise both medicine and surgery in England or Wales.
Provided, that if in any union or parish it aliall not be
practicable for the guardians or overseers to contract
I with a person residing in or near to the district for which
he shall he required to act, fully qualified as aforesaid,
the guardians or overseers may report the circumstances
to the Poor Law Board, and the said board may permit
a contract to be entered into with a medical practitioner
not fully qualified for so long a time as the said Board
shall deem proper."
INDIAN FINANCE.—A return to the House of Lords
was issued on Tuesday, containing copies of all the
notifications issued by tbe Governor-General of India !
f the co 11111 l eneement of the year 15.17 to the .resent
time, relative to the terms on which the Government
would receive money on loan. The paper concludes
with the last "notification" of the :Ist of February,
ISh9. the terms of which were criticized in a leading
article of The Times of Tuesday. It is intimated that
reductions iti the ',mien t " enormous " war charges will be
made as early and to as gnat an extent its may he safe,
and and that ineamurea will be taken for the permanent
increase of the Imtiati revenue as largely as may be con-
aimtent with mound policy ; "but the full benefit of theme
operations," it is added, " will not be felt in the year
11t59-60." The loan for which Viscount Cannning will
look to the Indian market for the service of 1859-60 is
five crores of rupees, and when this amount is realized
the account will be closed and no further loan opened
in India during " that " (this?) year. The loan to be
opened on the lido( May is to be a hi per cent, loan,
and, if it should not produce the required amount, the
Governor-General will recommend to the Secretary of
State for India that the deficency he supplied from England
The issue of Treasury-bills on the terms notifi d on the
20th of January will be closed on the 30th inst., and a
new issue will be notified froin the Ist of May, bearing
interest at the rate of 14 pie per centum per diem. The
Soma received on these notes will not be counted as
part of the five crores to be raised by loan.

CANADA.

.... —•-•
A new tariff introducvl by Mr. Oalt, the provincial
Chancellor of the Exchequer. adopts the principle of ail
valorem duties on ivany articles, the object being to en-
courage direct imports from foreign countries by the St. !
Lawrence, such as tea, coffee sugar, ,ke , instead for hav-
ing to resort to the market of New York. Such •
policy the merchants contend will materially benefit
B 'tish shipping and the ports of Quebec and Portland,
as well as throw a large trailic on the Canadian Trunk
Railway. The bill will be opposed by the members for
certain portions of Upper Canada, whose constituents
regard New York as their best market ; hut the Cana-
dian interests below Toronto will support the cid rulorrist
ditties with a view to direct imports f China and the
West Indies, exchanging with the latter lumber, fish,
flour, and provisions. The Canadian Legislature has
also adopted a me ..... rial to the Imperial Government
against granting subsidies to inail steamers running to
American ports, while witholding any postal subsidy to
the Canadian mail steamers. They ask for the port of
Portluel to be substituted for Boston—a demand which
appears reasonable, and one that would serve Canada
and the United States better than the present arrange-
ment.

INDIA.
Lord Canning's notification of the purposes of Govern-
ment to borrow nioney by proinimory notes has caused
• panic in the market; and the financial embarrassment
of the Govennuent is represented as most serious.
From Central India we hear that the rebels were at
Mehidpoor, but that the Rao Sahib, who led them, was
ready to arrange the terms of submission. General
Michel was moving upon Bhopal. The whereabouts of
Ferose Shah was not known.

It is understood that both the present members
will seek for re-clection. Sir J. C. Jervoise, in his
address, contents himself with soliciting a renewal
of the trust confided to him in 15.17, " in the con-
viction that I have not departed from the principles
on which I then became a candidate." The Hon.
It. H. Dutton voted for the Government Reform
Bill, for the purpose of getting it altered in -
mittee, disagreeing with some of its provisions.
There is some talk of a second Liberal candidate

WESTERN CIRCUIT.
BRISTOL, A Pill I. 4.
(Before Mr. Baron WATSON.)
Buvrouv r. nation's.
Mr. Collier and Mr. Stone were counsel for the I
plaintiff. and Mr. Smith and Mr. Kingdon for the
defendant.
The plaintiff was a livery.stable keeper at Bristol, and
the defendant wan a wine and spirit merchant at Cry-
diton, in Devonshire.
This was an action upon the warranty of a mare. On
the (*art of the defendant the warranty was denied. The
evidence was as contradictory as it always is in such
cases. The mare died from disease of the longs.
The learned Judge said the question was warranty or
not warranty. By some law of Providence, in all horse
causes one party or the other counnitted the grossest
perjury, and in this case it was perfectly clear either
the plaintiff or defendant had been guilty of the most
wilful perjury. There was no escaping (ruin ii. The
jury were to may which party they believed.
The jury, having first retired, returned a cerdictf.r
the plaintiff,—damages £2O.
HILL AND WIVE V. Ittenaun.
Mr. Slade and Mr. Cole were counsel for the plaintiff.
The case wan undefended.
The action was upon a pond. Verdict for the
plaintiff.

PLATT AND ANOTHER r. SIR JOHN HARE.
Mr. M. Smith and Mr. (;reavea were counsel for the
plaintiffs; and Mr. Collier and Mr. Coleridge for the
defendant.
This was an action for a breach of contract with
regard to the purchase of certain lands at WesWn-super-
Mare.
A verdict was taken for the plaintiffs for C2O), subject
to the opinion of the Court above upon the construction
of the contract.
GASTON AND ANOTHER r. THE BRISTOL AND EXETER
RAILWAY.
Mr. Collier and Mr. }Alin were counsal for the
plaintiffs; and Mr. Butt, Mr. M. Smith, and Mr. Stone
for the defendants.
This was the well known packed parcel question, and
it was decided that a verdict should be taken for the
plaintiffs for es. tid., and that the case should go to the
Court above, but should not be brought on before the
final decision of • similar case now before the Court of
Error.

S ( iFTIIA NIPTON.

The sitting Libe—rasl Members. Messrs. Willcox and
Weguelin, will again come forward, and are about to
issue a joint sitarists. Humour whispers the namini
of one or two gentlemen as probable candidates in
the i 'onservative interest. . .

Molars. AN illeox and Weguelin have issued their
address to the electors, in which they say :—" Her
Majesty having been graciously pleased, for the
fourth time, iii her Speech from the Throne, to re•
commend to the considemt of Parliament a
measure for the better representation of the people.
the Government introduced a Bill into the House of
Commons. which by the almost unanimous decision
of all parties in the House, has been rejected as inad-
equate, or contrary to the spirit of Her Majesty's
recommendation. Upon being placed ins minority
of :IS upon a resolution declaring that it is neither
just nor politic to interfere in the inanner proposed
by the Government Reform Bill with the freehold fran-
chise, and that a greater extension of the suffrage in
cities and boroughs than is contemplated in that flies-
sure is necessary and expedient,' the I lovemment have
thought tit to declare that they consider themselves
released from the public pledge they gave on the
subject of reform on their accession to office, and,
while they appeal to the country, give no promise
that they will again attempt the settlement of this
great question. Dissolving upon reform, they pro-
fess to abandon it as impracticable in their hands.
It is therefore left to the country to decide whether
they can any longer be intruded with its settlement.
For our own part, we believe that the country is sin-
cere in desiring an extension of the basis of represen-
tation both in counties and boroughs." We there-
fore do not hesitate to appeal to the electors of
Southampton to raise their voice in favour of this
principle, and in offering ourselves again for the
high honour of representing the borough in Parlia-
ment, we refer with confidence to the many proofs we
have given of our devotion to what we consider to be
the just rights of the poople, and to every measure
' tending to promotetheir social and political progress."

public events, and to report the siune.

BRIDGWATER.

.....
The contest here has begun in earnest, and pro-
mises to be an extremely tierce one. On Thursday
evening the two Conservative eambilatea, Mr. Pad-
wick and Mr. Westrop, arrived by the express train
from London, and met with a most enthusiastic race's-
tion. Accompanied by their principal supporters
and preceded by a bawl of music, they at once pro-
ceeded to the Clarence Hotel, where they addressed
the electors. They announced their determination,
if elected, to support Lord Derby against what they
called the factitious opposition of Lords Palmerston
and John Russell. They commenced their canvass on
Friday morning. The Liberal aindidates are also
stirring themselves, and both parties are determined
to exert themselves to the utmost in behalf of their
respective candidates.

BANIERVPTCV Cotirr, April s.—lu Re Oak and
Snow.—The bankrupts were bankers at IFllandford
Forum, Goreetshire. The failure occurred some
time ago ; the bankrupts passed their examination;
but the certificate meeting has been adjourned from
time to time with the view of enabling the bank-
rupts to supersede the adjudication by nutking a
satisfactory proposal to their creditors. At the last
meeting it transpired that they had offered a pay-
ment, which, with the dividends already made,
would amount to a composition of 6s. in the pound

on their joint debts ; and this was the sitting
appointed for the creditors to approve or reject that
proposal. Mr. Fox, the aolicitor for the assignees,
attended, with powers from a large number of cre-
ditors to vote against the pmposal. No one appea--
ing on the part iif the bankrupts, the result is that
the proposal falls through.
