PIRACY IN THE INDIAN ARCHIPELAGO.

- - ------ ---
Lord STRATFORD DE REDOLIFFE drew attention to
• statement published is the Pre* Press of Singapore in
reference to an expedition by the Sarawak steamer Rain-
bow, Capt.ia Hewat, against the pirates of the Archipelago,
and asked if any measures were being taken for the pro-
tection of British commerce in those seas.
The Duke of SOMERSET said that her Majesty's govern-
aunt had received information withrefereoce to the
sop of the Rajah of Sarawak against the pirates, rutte
details were rather meagre. It was quite true, however,
as was stated by that officer, that it was useless to attempt
to overtake the puttee with a remold 1,400 tons, because they
had vessels of very light draught, and the moment they
were pursued by • vowel of war they sought the protection
ell the shoals, and it 'was oisessaary therefore that small
gunboat. should be provided to follow them. Her Majesty's
government had celled the attention of the government of
the Netherlands ad the governmentof Spain to the matter,
with a view of °tiepins( • proper naval force to put down
piracy, and it wasexpected that an arrangement would shortly
become to between those powers with that view. He believed
that the officers upon the station had done their duty as far
se they could to dear the seas of those pirates, but it must
be remembered that the difficulties with which they had to
eostisod had of late rears very much increased. Hong
Moog used to be the head-quarters of the admiral, and
from thence it was easy to send down ships of war against
the pirates, but now the station had been removed to the
northward, and the coast to be overlooked by oar naval
fares had considerably extended. He hoped, however, that
in the coarse al • short time, arrangement, would be roods
in coonexios with the other powers claiming property in
the I rchipelago, by which all difficulties would be removed,
and piracy effectually suppressed.

REPORT OF ROYAL COMMISSION ON VOLIIN'TEER
AID.
_ _

Lord TRURO said the Under Secretary for War
whether the report of the royal commission on volunteer
aid had vet been received. He wu of opinion that the
volunteer artillery would be in • position to serve their
country better than they can now do if they were trained
to moveable field guns. If it was intended by the govern-
ment that the volunteer movement should be fully developed
and rendered perfect sou to be able to meet any emergency
which might arise, they would place every means at their
disposal for that purpose, and
.particularly would supply
them with beldgune,so that their utility would not be con-
fined to garrison duty. He regretted that delay bad existed
I the issuing of the oommusica, and hoped that the re-
port would scan be placed before their lordship'.
Earl DE GREY and RIPON said that the royal commie-
'loners had not yet seat in thou report, but he had every
reason to believe that it would be sent in is the course of
the next few days, and that their lordships would receive it
before the close of the present sssaioo. He could assure
his noble friend that there had not been any unnecessary de-
lay either in the aiming of the commission or in the prepara-
tion of the report. Tile commission had been issued
ea the 16th of Hay ; the commissioner, met on the 21st
of May, and issued • aerie' of questions to the
commanders of volunteers corps ; they examined b 3 wit-
nesses, they issued 1,488 circulars, and received over 1,200
answers, which, of course, they bad to consider. It was
alter therefore that they had been most diligent is the di-
atoms of the duties entrusted to them. (Hoar, hear.) If
the royal commissiouers recommended that inoressed aid
to gives to the volunteers, and her Majesty's
governmeut, after full consideration, acquiesoed in that
recommendatioa. it would to • great extent
alter the character ot • forme which had been

arganited upon the footing that it was to cost
nothing whatever to the country. With respect to the
artillery, they bad beeu treated from the beginning with
peculiar favour, having received instruction and ammuni-
tion gratuitously at a time when such aid wee not granted
to any other portion of the force. The main utility of the
volaateer artillery in cue of war would he am garrvon artil-
lery, and much doubt existed as to whether eth could de-
vote to drill the time that would be necessary to make them
effuent as field artillery. For himself, he believed that
they would be much more usefully employed se garrtion
thee as field artillery. (Hear, hear.)
Lord OVEHISTONE assured the noble lord who had intro.

duced the subject that the eollloliMiollert. in the dliebarieOi
their duties, bad approached the subject with a very deep
sense of the importance and delicacy of the questions which
they had to consider. In the course of two months from the
date of the commission they hail gone through the exten-
sive inquiries mentioned by the noble earl, and considered
the condition and requirement. of the force in all its
branches. The report had that day been agreed to, and
only awaited the formal signature of the commissioners.
Their lordships adjourned at twenty minutes past seven
o'clock.

HOUSE OF OOKIKONS.—TuaRDAy, Jul.: 29.
ROY AL ACADEMY.

At the evening eritit4,— ..
Lord BURY, Treasurer of the Household, brought up
the reply of her Majesty to the address of the house praying
teethe appointment of a royal commission to inquire
the constitution of the Royal Academy. Her Majesty
stated that she had given directions for the appointment of
a commission for that purpose.
ROYAL COMMISSION.
Colonel CUPPOiD, the Yeoman Usher of the Black
Rod, summoned the house to attend the Rome of Peers to
bear the Royal assent given to several bills.
The Seim:Art, accompanied by the Serjeant•es-Arme and
several hon. member., then proceeded to the Lords, and on
ha return announced the bills which bad received the Royal
assert.
THE TEMPORARY ROAD ACROSS HYDE•PARK
AND THE MARBLE ARCH.
Sir Mt. PETO asked the First Commissioner of Works if
he world permit the temporary reed across the park from
Bayswater•road to the queen's-pie, Kensington, to remain
open for six months after the close of the International
Exhibition, to allow time for consideration of the best plan
for the permanent road ; and if it was not desirable to
incur the small expense which would be incident to the
cleansing the facade of the Marble-arob at Cumberland-

Mr. COWPER said he did not feel authorised to keep the
mad ups• after the Rxhibitioc. He thought that the
experience of this reed might be of assistance to any consi-
deration which the louse might give to the establishment of
a permanent rood. The Marble-arch, like other public
monuments exposesito the atmosphere of London. required
periodical cleansing. He had tried water from • ere-engine
without any very decided result. Be thought it settereary
that the Marble-arch should be cleansed more thoroughly at
the end of every tea years.
PUBLIC VACCINATOR&
Mr. H. B. SHERIDAN asked the Vioe-President of the
Coom.ittee of Council whether it was the intention of the
.Lerds of Privy Council, in consequence of the way in which
the compulsory Vaccination Act had worked, to permit sec-
tarian who have the diploma of the Royal College of Sur-
geon', sad who have also undergone an examination in
vuednation, and have obtained • certificate of oompeteacy
se raccisation, to receive the appointment of public ram-
esker wherever boards of guardians are disposed to make
the appointment order such pialihcations ; and whether the
Privy Council had not been made aoluitinted with the appa-
rent necessity for some relaxation f the regulations with
reference to the present mode of appointing public yard.

Mr. LOWE mid, when parliament established the prin.
ciple of public mocioation, it became necessary to see that ,
the vaccinatios was as good as possible. For this purpose
the Privy Council made regulations that persons who should
contract with the hoards cl guardians should hare a sir.
tifloste. It was thou found that the bodies who gwe
medical and surgical degrees took no care whate►er with
respect to the practice of rumination. The remit was, that
the Privy Comical established 15 stations in England, which
were presided over by gentlemen who were skilful vsooia.

• medical or surgical degree, sad wished to contract with
the poor-law guardians, should receive a certificate as vac-
cinator from one of these 15 stations ; and care was taken
that there should be a station near every medical school in
England. He did not think it right to relax them mule.

Sir M. PETO asked the Secrets/7 of State for War whe-
ther he had any objection to l upon the table the report
of the Barrack Committee ; and if he proposed to adopt the

OPERATIONS OF THE REBELS IN CHINA.

ColoniaSlkE4asitediii7 Ctid;isecriiilr;oritate for
Foreign Affairs what foundation there was for the state-
ments in the China journals, received yesterday, that
the allies at Shanghae had been obliged to relinquish all the
cities and positions they had captured from the Taepings
and retire upon Shanghae ; that 400.000 rebels had sud-
denly appeared, and in exasperation for the allied attacks
upon them, were desolating the neighbourhood of Shinghae;
and whether • requisition hada been made to the Indian
government for • reinforcement of troops.
Yr. LA Y ARD said no information had been received by
government, which at all corroborated the statement in the
hon. and gallant gentleman's question. The allies had not
been obliged to relinquish a position in the neighbourhood
of Shanghae. The general in command bad thought it
right to withdraw the troops from one position, but he was
not compelled to do so. As regarded the 400,000 rebels,
aster as has information west they only existed in the
imagination of the officer who bad oomuuniested with his
hon. and gallant friend.
SAPPERS AND MINERS IN THE EXHIBITION.

Mr. H. B. SHERIDAN askedthe Secretary of
War whether there was any truth in the report that a
body of Sappers and Miners bad been marched into the In-
binational Exhibition building, and had forcibly covered up
and hidden the stall of an exhibitor, in consequence of
such exhibitor having placed on hie own glass case • printed
expression of opinion adverse to the decision of the com-
missioners who h►d adjudged the prizes, and that guards
bad been mounted over the same stall ; and if this report
were true, by whose authority had the military been thus
employed.
Sir G. C. LEWIS said, in consequence of the notice of
the hon. gentleman, he bad caused inquiries to be made,
and be fated that no guard of sappers and miners was
placed at the stall ; but in ooesequence of an adverse opi-
nion to that of the jury having been exposed at the stall •
sapper caused the stall to be closed or covered up, and he
did so by the order of the authorities of the Exhibition,
communicated to him by the superintendent of the clam to
which the stall belongs&
