churob, or of the faith width tbey gedimadLas tors exposed
to the influence of men of learciag. of peas powers of
persuasion, and of very attractive Manners, such as those
who had been mentioned; but he hardly thought the hon.
gentleman would recommend that house to adopt any
brie. measure measure to counteract influence of that kind. The
only way in which it could be done was by mug all the
means in their power to ground the youth of the country in
the doctrines of our church and our religion, and thus
better suable them to oope with those influences. Mr.
Smee also appeared to have taken an erroneous view, both
with regard to the object of the Burial Acts
and the powers Invested in the Secretary of Sista.
These acts were entirely for sanitary purposes •
and although the Secretary of State was required to give his
consent to the establishment of burial grounds within the
metropolitan districts, it was never intended by parliament
to confer upon him an arbitrary power in that respect, still
ler that his approval should be obtained or withheld with
the slightest reference to the religions feeling of the per-
sons who made the application. But Mr. Smee thought
otherwise. He was of opinion that he ought to have re-
fused the application in this cue, and he war also clearly of
opinion that an extraordinary course had been adopted, and
some undue secresy observed in obtaining the burial ground.
He (Sir George Grey) hoped the oorrespondence would re-
move that imprerion, sod he regretted that Mr. Sines
bad thought fit to introduce the name of the late Duke of
Norfolk into the discussion. (Cheers.) Tin application
for opening the burial ground was made in the usual course
by Dr. Faber, who was the principal of what was celled
the Roman Catholic College. It was referred to an in-
spector who happened to be occupied in other
business, and u be did not make his report for a
considerable time, the Duke of Norfolk wrote the letter
which was now before the house, calling attention
to the applieatioo, and expressing the importance which the
members of his church attached to it. That letter was
sent to the inspector, who reported in detail, showing
clearly that as regarded sanitary regulations not theslightset
danger was to be apprehended from such a burial ground.
Accordingly the application was granted, as it would be,
and had been, in other cases, where the rued wee for the
exclusive use of the members of a religious community,
whether Roman catholic or protestant. There woe nothing
in the application to show that the pound was for the
members of the order of St. Philip Neri, but
if there had been be could nos have said
that that body was illegal because they said
they were not bound by vows. Eves were they bound
by vows, they must ascertain who imposed the vows and
who accepted them before they cooled take any proceedings
against them for a violation of the Act for the Relief of
Roman Catholics. When Mr. Smee complained last year
that certain regulations existed in the burial ground, the
Inspector was again desired to report, and he made a report
which was satisfactory. It appeared that in the interval of
sever years only three interments had taken place, and
therefore no possible injury could have bean cared to the
inhabitants. Auer was given to the cemetery to
the friends of thou who were buried there; and
with regard to the inscriptions on the tombstones,
that was a matter over which the governmeot had no one-
trot If the real name, of praxis buried were not given,
no doubt ioooseenience might result is searching for names
to establish the right to property, or for any other purpose,
but the inconvenience would be much greeter if no names
whatever &peered over the graves to record who was
buried beneath, and there wars no law which compelled the
erection of tombstones, or the placing of inscriptions upon
them. Mr. Swag complained that his relative was induced
by undue seiritusi influence to dispose of his property ; but
if he had noder such undue infinities disposed of it in •
manor in which he would not have done if be had been
free from that influence, the law furnished a remedy. He
(Sir G. Grey) was told, but it might be a mere rumour,
that proceedings had been taken with regard to the will of
this person, founded on the allegation of undue infinenos.
Mr. NEW DEGATE said he believed the law was totally
insufficient to meet a eau of this kind.

HOUSE OF LORDS.—FRIDAY, Ann. 8.
The Lour Ctumoz.z.oa took his esti cos the woolsack
i 5 o'clock.

PETITIONS.

Lord WYNFORD presented a petition from, u we
understood, some place ia Denbighshire, praying for the
abolition of the milt duty.
The Earl of SHAFTESBURY presented a petition from
the inhabitants of Christchurch, Harkinland, near Halifax,
Yorkshire, praying that bosses for the male of intoxicating
liquors might be closed between the hours of eleven on
Saturday nights and six on Monday mornings.

Sir G. GREY thought if that were wit must be because
the judge or the jury before whom the osse came, came to
the conclusion that undue influence had not bees used,
Heir.) He believed that so caw had been made out fat
granting the inquiry which the hon. member sought. No
doubt steps of the kind mentioned by the hon. member had
been taken in other countries, but the same reasons did Dot
apply to England. The law of mortrimin here prevented
those evils which he said were the foundation el the pro-
reeding' in the Italian parliament. The right boo. baronet,
in sooclasiou, unites he did not see that any good regalia
could arise from the inquiry, he must oppose the motion.
Lord L HOWARD complained of the toes of Mr. New-
degates speech, and of the calumnious attacks made upon
his own family is the petition. With regard to the Oratory,
any act. of that society supposed to be illeg►l were coots-
able by the ordinary tribunals of the country. As to the
increase of conventual establishments, most of them WWI
merely edocatioaal.
Mr. MUTE said the noble lord had cast a sort of impala-
Lion upon the boa member for Warwickshire for having
brought this matter forward without giving him notice.
That imputation was wholly unfounded. He had had no
communicatioa with the hos. member, but be knew all
about this case, sad that it weld be brought forward ; and
the cable lord seemed to know that also. But he rose to
refer to what fell from the Secretary of the Home
Department, for be believed that religious influences, how-
ever strongly exhibited, and however close to de►th, did
not afford a legal reason for setting aside a will. The only
question was whether such cases as those cited by the boa•
member for North Warwickshire were sufficiently
numerous to justify legislative interfereoas ; but whether
they were or not, he thought the hop. member, instead of
the reprobation, deserved the thanks of the house for
calling attention to this institution.
Mr. O'HAGAN contended that it was unmanly and
unfair to email these priest" is a place where they could
not be present to defend themselves, and that the house
should not agree to this motion on assertions such as they had
beard that evening.

Sir G. BOWYER said that the hon. member for Warwick-
shire complained that the name on Father Hutchinsoo's
tomb was sot his baptismal epplioatioo, but the fact was
that he had changed his name at coofirmation, as was per •
barely legal. The hoe. member would see on the highest
authority, Coke upon Littleton, that it wee perfectly lip'
for a mac to change his name at confirmation. With respect
to the will, it was so death-bed will, but had been made
by Father Hutehiasoa three years before hie death.
Mr. R. P. LONG disc/aimed for Mr. Newdegate any in-
tuition to amperes the family of the sable lord the member
for Arundel. The noble lord's speech was a most ingenious
panorama of his hon. friends observations. He (tlr.
Long) must my that if he were a Roman catholic member,
he would not oppose a inotioo of this sort. lonised of
keeping cooreats and moosatie institutions hermetically
sealed, the object of all members of that house should be
to let light into them, and to expose the coercion and
maltreatmeat of the inmates (Order.)
Lord E. HOWARD wished to know whether the boo.
member applied the words " ingresses perversion " to
anything he (Lord E. Howard) had said. (Order, order.)
Sir P. O'BRIEN recommended to the hon. member for
Chippenhase to remember an axiom of hie political thief
which told them that " insolenoe was not sarcasm, and
violent* wee not invective.° (Loud cries of "Order.")
NEWDEGATE essayed a few words in reply, but
was called to order by the Speaker.
The house divided :

For Mr. Newdegate's amendment
THE NEW BANKRUPTCY ACT.

fir. MOFFATT directed attention to the ;;;king of the
new bankruptcy law which, he contend, imperatively
required amendment,contended,
bevies signally failed to realise the
expectatious of parlianisot, and encouraged the perpetra.
Coo of gross frauds, sad the demoraliaatioo of the mercan-
tile community. He argued that it wee the duty of the
legialatnie either to eliminate the act from the statute book
altogether, or to institute a searching inquiry.
Mr. MURRAY also urged the necessity of taking steps
to alter and amend the net of 1861, in the principle of which
he entirely concurred, though the mode in which it had
been administered was most objectionable.
The ATTORN EY-GENERAL said that inquiry was us.
doubtedly desirable, owing to the manifest defects of the
law. He thought, for example, that experience of its
operation did not eemourage them to persevere is croetinaierg
the practice of entrusting to creditoes' amigo... the collie-
lion of the assets, inasmuch as it had been found that these
persoos did not realise laiger divideods for the creditors, ear
reduce the expense of administering estates. It also ap-
peared that the oasts of the court ware intolerably great.

THE BIRKENHEAD STEAM RAMS.
Sir L PALK called attastion to a rule obtained for a
commission to examine the Paths of Eqpt and other
witnesses at Cairo to obtain evidence against the steam
rams detained at Birkenbeed and asked how long the in-
vestigation was likely to last, and the probable expense of
it ; whether the trial of the Birkeehead iron dads would
be postponed from May next, until this information should
be obtained, and why the rule was not applied for when
the vessels were Snit detained.

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL replied that the man-
rnimion was made returnable on the 10th of May, which wee
an earlier day than the earliest on which the trial could
take place. He could not undertake to say what the ex.
pease was likely to be, bat the crown had adopted the least
expensive course. The rule was not applied for when the
seizure was made, because he we. not then ready to go to

BOMBARDMENT OF SONDERBORO.
Mr. DILLWYN called the Munition of the boom to •
telegraphic despatch which appeared io the Times newspaper
of the 6th inst. relative to the bombardment of Sooderborg
by the Prussian. without previous intircatioa, and asked
the First Lord of the Treasury if her Majesty's government
had received information whether such account gives io that
despatch was substantially correct ; and it so, what steps
had been takes by her Majesty's government to recall the
Prussian government to a seam of the necessity of carr7ieg
on war to accordance with the usages of civilised nations.
He said he did sot come forward as the advocate of owe aids
or the other, further than to my that be *might the Prus-
sians is the first instance were right and the Danes were
wrong. but at the same time be thought the Prussians had
prosecuted their claims in a manner which was most **lent

what they wasted without . bloodshed

would be that it would be prejudicial to the publie
linnets to damn it whilst the conference was sitting. Bat
he thought the bands of the government would rather be
strengthened by • dimmed= on this subject. He trusted
the cable lord, before be sat down, would give the house
some account of what had become of the treaty of 1832.
(Hear, beer.) Did her Majesty's government iotend to
adhere to that treaty, or were they to have another state
of affairs—lnch as • temporary patching up of this intern
strider the eoutersnoe, by which the Bliewig-Holsteners
were to be 000demned to return to the " sway of their lawful
sovereign "—(hear)—bat one whom they did not acknowledge
as their lawful sovereign—(cheep)—sod he was surprised
to dad a chief of the great liberal party forcing upon these
people • treaty bylerhieh they never were concluded. (Hear.)
He hoped the noble lord would give the house some infor-
mation on these points, and sure be was that whatever
might be the present opinion of the country—if it were not
afforded, they would at last come to believe that Germany
had been irritated, Denmark cajoled, sod England
(Chun.)
Mr. Nunnoitre rose, but almost immediately afterwards
gave way to
Lord I'ALMERSTON, who said—My boo. friend ob-
jects to • conference which is to meet for the pur-
pose of endeavouring to put an and to the hostilities which
are now raging. He lays it is absurd to agree to • confer.
am, and it will only do more mischief than already
Male -(" hear, hear," from Mr. Osborne)—and he pledges
hie political sagacity—and I beg that the house will bear
it in mind—that it can lead to no good result'. (" Hear,
bear," from Mr. Osborne.) Well, we will see that in
future, and I bops my hon. friend will be able next year,
and oo the day he has moo tioeed—(laughter)—to remind us of
what be has said to-night. (Chun.) But my boo. friend says
we were equally wrong tot to have goo* to a congress.
("Hear, hear," from Mr. Osborne.) He says the reason
you gave for not agreeing to • congress was absurd.
namely, that there was no object in agreeing to it. V.
there was no object. Then was then no war for • congress
to put an end to. There was DO peculiar object to which its
attention might be directed. Where there is an object—
' a distinct object—the object being to endeavour to reconcile
parties who are differing, and to 'put an end to hostilities
which are raging, I the cam are utterly dissimilar, and
I think my hon. friend might have shown more diecritnina-
; Lion if he had not drawn that distinction, which is exactly
in the wrong direction. Well, I say, all the parties
who concluded the treaty of 1852 agree in
maintaining that they are bound by that treaty, that
treaty binding them to acknowledge King Chriatiin as King
of Denmark, and to respect and mantain the integrity of
the Danish monarchy. My hop. friend may lay that is not
• basis. Still it in ao agreement. All these pasties are
agreed that that is the condition upon which they will enter
the conference, within the treaty and within the limits of
the treaty. My hon. friend coulounds two things which are
in themselves entirely separate—the agreements of 1851
sod 1852 and the treaty of May, 1852. There are dif.
! femme between Germany and Denmark as to the agree-
ments of 1852. Those agreements in the main were that
whereas, on the one band, the German powers agreed not
to require that which had formerly been demanded—the ad-
ministrative and political union of Holstein and Slessiig;
oe the other head, the Daniell government agreed not to
do anything tendiog to iocorper.-ate Sleawq with Denmark.
These were the agreements of 1851 and 1852 ; but they are
totally different from the treaty of 1&52 ; and it is quite
essential to the understanding of the matter that that dia.
' Unction should be bone in mind. The agreements
of 1861-1852 may be settled either way, with-
out at all infringing the treaty of 1852 • and
the treaty may be adhered to by that; who
entertain very different opinions as to the agreements which
preceded that treaty. Then my hon. friend asked when the
conference was to meet. We have the assent of all the
powers who coocluded the treaty—l don't mean those who
aoudad afterwards, but of those who signed it—nsmelv
France, Austria, Prins* Russia, Sweden, and Denmark:
The German Confederation was not • party to that treaty.
(Mr. 01:180111 —They were never asked.) No ; at that
time there was an objection to the proposal that they
should join. At one time Prune objected, but she
afterwards changed her mind ; and other German
power dad not &arse. But we have asked the
Diet to send • plenipotentiary to the conference.
Whether the Diet be so long in giving an answer as my
bon friend supposes Ido not know, but with regard to the
meeting of the conference, it has been postponed at the de-
sire of Austria and Prussia from the 12th to the 20th of
Apnl. France, it is true, wishes that the Diet should send
a representative, but that is not • sine quk non. France
says that if the Diet does not send a representative, the
protocol may be left *pee for the Diet tome& to it after.
My hon. friend alluded to • despatch frost the French
Minister of Foreign Affairs, containing a eaggestios for an
appeal to the population of Sleswig-Holstein—tot as a basis,
as stated by my hon. friend, but a suggestion thrown out.
To any each proceeding it is not likely that the other powers
would accede. (Hear, hut.) The French he
say
that they abide by the treaty of 1852. That is the state of
the case. My bon. friend has his opinion, but I do not
think it is partaken by the country at large. (Hear.) But
though abundant in criticism. I was at • lose to understand
what my hoe. friend would do if he had the management of
the affair. (Hear, hear.) (Mr. Onsoang—Leave it alone.]
My hon. friend, therefore, being a party to a treaty which
bound him to acknowledge • certain sovereign as king of a
cottony under the sway of the crown of Denmark,
and to respect the integrity of the Danish monarchy,
and which he was bound by buriar and interest
to maintain, would sit by and do nothing. (Hear.) I do
not think that such • course would be creditable to the
government or satisfactory to the country. (Hear, hear.)
The view of my boo. friend is not our view. We may be
right or we may he wrong. We endeavour to persuade
other governor, ots to fall into our view, and we have accom-
plished or are about to accomplish our object by assembling
a conformal with • view to the restoration of peace.
(Rear.) That is the Rumor to my hon. friend. 1 will not!
at this hour go into the other matters to which he referred.
He began his question by referring to what was said to have
taken place at Sonderborg, and from what we have heard I
am afraid it really took place. We have DO official
statement, but I mu inclined to think that a bombardment
of flonderborg did take place, and that the lives of several
citizens were sacrificed. I have already said that the inse-
am of Danish territory was, in my opinion, uojust and un-
justifiable, and I am sorry to say that Proceedings have
Wren place with regard to the conduct of the Gorman
troops during the invasion which are not in keeping with
the practice of civilised nations. ( Loud opposition chem.)
We have made inquiries at Berlin as to whether this thing
was true, and if so by whose authority it did take place.
We bare received so answer yet. IJo not mean to say
that we can assume the right of dictating to the Prussian
government, but at the earn* time there are opinions which
may fairly be expressed in the interests of humanity if
the usages of war have been departed from. And it remains
for us to determine what we shall say when we get an
answer. (Hear, hear.)
Mr. KINGLAKE anticipated no good results, but rather
fresh difficulties and a-implications, from the conference,
and he censured Lord PiJmerston for having that evening
declared that the King of Denmark was the only lawful
Sovereign of the Duchies. This could not but prove offen-
sive to the Germans._

Gement PEEL said that the bombardment d Sooderborg
was too serious a subject to be treated with laughter in that
house. (Hear, hear.) He regarded each • mode of dealing
with the subject as nothing lees than an insult to the house.
(Hear, bear.) The noble lord said there was nothing in the
blue-book to lead anyooe to the °occlusion that Denmark
wee urged on by the government of this country. He was
afraid that there was • great deal not in the
blue-book which ought to be there. (Beer, hear.)
The noble lord stated last session that if the duchies were
invaded the Danes would not be lett alma (Hear, hear.)
For his part, be regarded that declaration when made as
a very indiscreet ooe on the part of the Prime Minister of
England, but he perfectly relied on it. (Hear,
bear.) Daring the winter when be was abroad, and whoa
be heard the Germans speaking of the invasion of the
duchies, to his statement that such • proceeding would be
resisted by thin country, be invariably received the
reply, "Oh no, it will not; Denmark will be left
alone." (Hear, bear.) Bin °sly object in rising
was to Gamma his opinion that it was not upon
• question being naked upon going into committee
of supply, es to whether a telegram which appeared in a
newspaper wee true or not, that a matter of so much impor-
tant, as that which had been introduced should be die.
cussed. The significant fact that there had been omitted
from the speech from the throne the usual paragraph as to
• good feeling subsisting between this country and foreign
powers rendered it necessary for the house to inquire
whether the absence of that sesuraoce wasor was not the
result of the foreign policy that had been adopted by the
government from the moment they came into office. That
was a question which it was the duty of the house to ask,
and which he ventured to promise them they would have
an opportunity of discussing. (Opposition cheers.)
Mr. PEACOCK E regretted the toes adopted by the noble
lord, and advocated non.interventioo, because be believed
Denmark was originally in the wrong, and had never yet
put herself io the right. A solution of the difficulty would
not be rendered more easy by the use of exasperating lan.
gouge.

After few words from Sir H. VERNIT and Mr. S.
Etuomorr, the bowie went into committee of euppiy pro

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

EPSOM SPiaNG MZTING.

The weather had uadergone a delightful change mice
yesterday, the air ea the Dowse being that of real balmy
@piing, and the sports commencing in bright sanshiee, the
effect was a great increase in the attendance, the road being
well patronised, whilst the crowds from the seaway station
reminded the spectator@ in some degree of the Derby-day.
Lord Westmorland on his appearance in the inclose» was
again warmly congratulated by the noble patrons of
the turf, and his lordship's anomie in the City
and Suburban Handicap had the effect of improving
the position of Birch Broom in the Derby quotations,
as inquiries were frequently made after him, aid as little as
14 to I would have been taken to win a good stake. We
believe the noble,owner of Many Hart netted 12,00131., and,
generallyspeaking, for bookmakers the wianerof tin City and
Suburban was a bad ooe, as very few were fortuoate enough
to escape without laying all their hooka. It is needless to
say that though the Metropolitan Handicap was the feature
of the day, it has sow give° way in public favour to the
City end Suburban, which is decidedly on. of the moat
popular handicaps of the spring. The card contained six
items, the first of which was fixed at 1.30, bat owing to a
delay at the start, the officials were thrown back fully half
an hour. Fourteen ran for the opening reset, the Waterloo
and old Suburban upset the calculations of " the West "
(who selected Practitioner and Atteché) by winning in the
easiest manner. A dozen ran for the New Two-Year-Old
Stakes, and smolt brilliant struggle ensued with the three
placed. Friday, who at the dietetics looked oat of the race,
"came" again with such a vigorous rush that he secured a
head victory from the French horse, °outran, end
Lemonade, who tleished equally close for almond and third
positions. The Balaclava Stakes, like all the selling races,
produced some animated spetialatioe, and the immense
favuunte, Usher, was beaten by William Day's " var.
mint-looking" filly by Vedette from Vixen, whose
male realised 1351. in excess of the entry price.
The great Metropolitan Handicap had eleven starters,
the brothen William and John Day supplying the
two fint favourites. A magnificent race occurred with Joco,
Touchend-go, Major, and King Charming ; and »close was
the finish that the spectators were left in suspense as to the
result until Mr. Clark announced the fortunate Epsom
" No. 7 " (Joco) as the winner. The eleven upon the card
out of the twenty-one entries for the Walton Stakes only
brought out five runners, conspicuous amongst the ab-
sentees being Gleaduak and Cceur de Lion. The backers of
hones freely supported Attraction and Attache, but they
were defeated by Zona» Junior, another good•loring 2-yr-
old from the French stable. The two days' meeting was
wound up with the Durdans Plate, for which Flettoe,
Countersign, Knight Templar, and Practitioner were the
non-starters of the thirteen entered. The rape, which at
tint began at a smart pace, was throughout confined to Earl
of Surrey and T. P. Cooke, Mr. Fred. Fisher, however,
beating his former confederate, Mr. T. Hughes, very easily
at the finish. Subjoined are details of the day's running :
