PETITIONS PRESENTED.
Tits BISHOP or Exams.—By Sir B. HALL, from the
Rev. Mr. Newton, who complained that in IMO he was
nominated to the curacy of St. Thomas of Exeter, hairi..ig
been duly approved of. Ile (the Rev. Mr. Newton) for-
warded his papers to the Bishop of Exeter, who, after hav-
ing kept him in suspense sonic five months, appoin.:td a day
for an interview. At that interview the Bisle„,p rep area
of him to affirm a doctrine which he (the Ref. ?ifT, NT,T.
ton) believed to be of the church of Itom,a, and upon his
afoul to affirm that doctrine the bishop withheld his
license. The petition: now prayed .he house to protect
the cleney against any absolute power sought to be in-
terposed between them and the protection afforded them
by the law.
STEAM COMMUNICATION WITH AUSTRALIA.
Mr. HENLEY wished to 'snow from the Chancellor of
the Exchequer whether it vets the intention of the govern-
Mont to carry out 90 1191K;l1 of the report of the committee
upon the subject of steam communication with Australia as
meornmmileel a route :lets:Ten the Cape of Cvood Hope and
Sydney, and if so, whether nen h recommendation was to be
Carried out by private contract or public arrangement?
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that
nn step or positive determination had been come to on the
sabject. Ile was anxious to etc what the result
of the inquiry would be as regraded the expense.
The suloe,t required their most anxious consideration;
because it appeared that the minimum sum required to
carry out the reeommendations of the committee amounted
to lost, $lOl., being 0,0001. more than they could obtain the
performance of the service for, as estimate d in the last year.
Lord JOCELYN begged to move the adjournment of the
house, for the purpose of having an opportunity of saying a
few words on the subject. Ile begged to say that the state-
ment of the right hon. gentleman was contrary to the facts
n,..iated before the committee. The assertimi was diame-
tr.eally opposed to the evidence on which the committee
came to their conclusion. The statement now made by
the right henouralde gentleman was similar to ow.
whirl; he made before the full cointuittee of accen-
t. ea members, who, having heard the statement and
Wor hoeing titanl the evidence of the various witnesses,
asiseeel to the report whirls he (Lord Jocelyn) had
the honour of drawing up, awl which contained the follow-
ing paregr ph. " Your e.sminitt,e having maturely vreig'itil
the see, cal lines sag:tested, together with the objections
urged against each, have come to the conclusilm that the
line mew /1 from the Cape of (Jowl Mope to Sydney is
the one that combine, th- Fruate4 advantages and the
smallest cost to the public." There was another paragraph
in that report, loath was added subsequently to the state-
meat made by the Chaneellor of the Esehequer, which
was as fellows: " As regards the expewee to the peddle, nes
sc....ley to the maintenance of each of the several lines, it
appear. to your COMlilittlie, in reference to toe tenders made
and to the evidence ...blue .4, that the l'iwaina route would
require for its establishment to Sydney ideate a grant of
&P PM., in addition to that already paid for that
portico of the line. coielucted by the Royal Mai!
Steam Packet Company. To effect the eaten, of the
Cape route, inebuting the root for bittroolonial eomniuniea-

the proolowl made for estahlishing a line from .iirluPtore to
Sydney, it model app ar that the public would be called
upon to contribute a sow of not less than re 1,0010." Thew
