!of the grounds specified in the act. But is case
of the rejection by the magistrates of a Seal applica-
tion, there was no appeal from their detente to the quarter
emnions. As the act had been introduced by his right how.
friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer, be (Sir G. Grey)
could give no assuraoce that his right boo. friend would
bring in a bill granting the right of appeal spoken of.
Mr. COX gays notice that to-morrow (this day) be would
ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he would bring
in a bill (rapines a right of appeal in that ease.
PASSPORTS FOR BRITISH SUBJECTS.

Sir W. FRASER rose to ask the Under Secretary of State
for Foreign Affairs whether peeeports were required by Bri-
tish subjects travelling in France. The hon. baronet ac-
companied his question with a brief statement of the double
which prevailed on the subject, and of the difficulties in
which English travellers were occasionally pl►ced ; and to
put himself in order, said he woald conclude by putting
a motion.

Mr. LA YARD said he must apologise for not having been
prompt when the hoc. baronetalluded to this subject the other
evening. It was well known that the Emperor of the French
bad acted with great liberality in removing all restrictions
on travellers from this country. The regulation was posi-
tive that French vise, should not be required for English-
men travelling in France, and that even passports
were not required to enable Englishmen to travel in
France. Nor were parparta asked for except for the pur-
pose of identifying the travellers' nationality. The French
authorities very frequently asked for a passport as a certifi-
cate that the person was what he represented himself to be.
He had always, himself. experienced the greatest civility
from the French authorities, nor bad he beard of com-
plainta, but at the same time he would recommend English-
men to provide themselves passports in order to prevent say
ioonivesience. For the osovenience of the home he
would read a list of those countries in which passports
for Englishmen were not required. They were—Bavaria,
Belgium, Denmark, Holland, France, Italy, Prussia, Spain,
and Sweden and Norway. (Hear, hear.) In all other
countries passports were required, viski by the ministers
of the respective governments.
Mr. AYRTON rose to a question of order. The hoe.
baronet bad made a speech without concluding with a',
motion.

Sir W. FRASER said he bawd pardon ; be bad made
a motion.

Mr. AYRTOW said that DO motion vu put from the
chair.

The SPEAKER said he understood it appeared to the
house that, though the question was put at somewhat
greater length than usual, it did not much exceed the ordi-
nary limits, and that accordingly no motion was required on
the occasion.

Colonel FRENCH (who was met with cries of " Order !")
said he thought that, if this system were persevered in of
moving the adjournment of the house for the purpose of
enabling members to speak at length in putting their ques-
tions, great ieeonvenieire would he the result.

The SPEAKER said he did not precisely understand the
of the hon. geetleman's observation. In the present
purport
otane•he had given his moons for thinking that no motion
was seasisary. (Bear, hear.)

Lad revenue with a view to facilitating the purchase and
trapdoor of land, and a further half million for the adminis
tration of public justice. The right bon. baronet also de-
tailed the various measures of internal administration
' Varby the government of India with a view to dove-
jdtlie natural reeoures• of the country, enumerating
sinotipt them the construstion of public works, the spoon-
regiment given to railways, she establishment of the elec-
tric telersph. the impulse imparted to cotton cultivation,
and the introduction and succemful culture of tea and cin-
chona.

SEYMOUR looked epee the statement as, on the
whole, highly satisfactory ; at the WOO time, he expressed
his regret that greater encouragement was not given by the
Indian government to induce Engliihmen to settle in the
country.
Mr. J. B. SMITH complinaad that the lodise budget had
been delayed tent within two days of the whitebait dieter.
He also urged the importance of opening up the River Go.
davery, which was one of the natural highways of India, but
which was navigable for 400 miles only est of 2,800.
Mr. CRAWFORD directed attention to the exemeive
export duty en saltpetre, the eonsumpnon of which, he
said, had fallen away is consequence.
A desultory debate ensued, in which Mr. Vansittert, Mr.
Baxley, Mr. Tenons, Sir Henry Willoughby, Colonel
Sykes, and others took part. A general expreniee of
satisfaction was elicited at the statement of Sir Cheeks
Wood, but nearly every speaker speed in condemning
the pewot inseam by which the Indian budget is delayed
nstil the expiring days of the maim.
Mr. G. DUFF made an attack upon Sir Charles Wood,
whose speech he described, not as a lucid and intelligible
statement, but as a concatenation of interjectional *en-
toucan., jerked out by • person to whom Heaven Ind denied
the gift of articulate speech. This elicited general in-
dications of disapprobation from the committee.
The resolutions as proposed by Sir Charles Wood were
ultimately speed to, end the house resumed.
CONSOLIDATED FUND (APPROPRIATION) BILL.
On the motion for going iato committee on this bi 1,
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER mid be pro-
posed to muerte the same course on this cioession as he
adopted last year—namely, to state to the hoses the roe-
tifiad figured of the balance of the account, which had arisen
in consequence of supplementary estimates, of the memo
for the year 1864-1865. The charges upon the consolidated
fund remained the same. The army estimates remained as
they were. The most important charge was with regard to the
estimates for the navy. The estimate ler the
navy was stated at 10,432,0001. ; whereas the ow-
meted animate was 10,708,0001. Of this dif-
ference of nearly 280,(001. • portiop amounting
to 60,000/. bad been already animus by him in general
terms, in consequence of the ineresaed pay of certain classes
of persons in the service. He had reseeTed 80,0004 for the
purpose of meeting that difference. Besides that, another
more important charge had been imposed upon this service
I by the purchase of the two ironclad meals, of which they
' had heard so much. for the sum of 225,0001. Thee again the
miscellaneous estimates which had been charged at
7,628,0001. were actually voted at 70338,0001. The packet
service vote which bad been taken at 883,000/. had been voted
at 860,0001. Taking all these charges together the remelt was
that whereas the total revenue of the year had been esti-
mated at 67,128,0001., and the total expenditure at
66,890.000/., leaving • surplus of 0001. ; the estimate
, for the revenue remained the same, but the charges had
been increased to 67,073,0001., leaving • nominal surplus
of only 55,0001. He did not apprehend that there was any
ration to apprehend that surplus would be further dimi-
nished, but he admitted that it was not suck a surplus
as the government would have been justified io submitting
to the house. But the diminution had erne* out
of charges which were not contemplated at the
time when the financial statement was made ;
and the main difference arose out of an arrange-
ment which was not so much • question of finance, as
one of general expenditure, having relation to our national
interests, and our relations with foreign countries. It was
not einem:cable to hope that this increase in our ex-
penditure might lead to • corresponding reduction in the
following year. but as matters stood the account presented
a merely nominal surplus of 56,0001.
Sir N. WIL lASUGH BY sail he thought the surplus had
more than vanished. Had the right hoe. gentleman taken
i Into consideration the whole of the supplementary votes for
the army, the vote for the yeomanry, and that for Sir it.
Hill's pension •.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER aid—Yes;
the figures he had nand were taken from the Appropria-
tion Bill, and therefore were sanctioned by the highest
authority. He had no reason to anticipate any further
dare-
Mr. WHITE asked why the right boa gentleman had
sot taken into account the 500,0001. which slight be ex-
pected to be repaid by the colony of New Zealand.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that if
that mousey was repaid it would go telecom's the amount of
the revenue for the year.
Mr. WALPOLE said that this was • very serious matter
indeed. The balance was a very small one, and it was a
question whether the revenue we. in • sufficient state of
buoyancy to meet the charges that were likely to be made
upon it with respect to New Zealand. He thought it be-
came the government to make a fuller statement of what
their anticipations were with respect to the charges for this
war.
THE BALANCE OF POWER IN EUROPE.

Europe, for the maintenance of which the army supplies
are appropriated, and urged that this country had spent
above a hundred millions in six years fur that object, and
took OCCSInOII to protest against the continuance of the
guarantee given by this country by the tre►ty of Vienna to
Prussia of her Saxon provinces, which he contended that
abs had forfeited by her recent conduct in regard to
Denmark.
Sir J. FERGUSSON said that the house ought not to
separate without knowing what was the posit on of the
country in regard to the treaties to which it was a party.
There were treaties older than the treaty of 1815, to which
the hon. member alluded. By the treaty of 1720, England
was Linde, guarantee to protect Denmark, and the noble
lord himself admitted that this country lay wider such au
obligation. Bet that treaty was now forgotten by the noble
lord. Why the, should they pay so much regard to the
treaty of 1815 when the older treaty of 1720 was violated
with impunity. It was a novel principle that treaties might
thus be set amide with impunity. They abandoned Den-
mark when she had her back to the wall and her Noe to
