in August, 1849, and to the ead of June this year, the re-
turns have been 395 tons. yieldl..g 6,8141. 6,. 7.1. The pre-

VISIT OF THE NEPAULESE AMBASSADOR TO

THE SOUTH TAMAR. MINE,
BEIRMATON, Aro. I.

His Highness the Neonate's Ambassador, wit► a sumer-

ow suite, and accompanied by'Sapt. Sir T. Maitland, Major
Cavanagh, Lieutenant Warren, and other officers of her
Majesty's service, visited this mine yesterday afternoon.
After inspeetkes.sis staeleisaly and all the surface opera-
OM, his highness proceeded underground, together with
Captain Sir Thomas Maitland, three gentlemen of his suite,
and Mr. Gormally, of her Majesty's Dockyard. They de-
scended by Olyn's shaft, ani passing through the 90 (+thorn
level, wentdown the engine shaft to the lower levels (100
fathoms), and came to surface by the main engine shaft. The
rapidity with which his highness descended, passed through
the different levels, climbed into the pitches, and ascended
the ladders, was truly astonishing, and exhibited
an activity that has seldom been equalled under-
ground. He appeared much pleased with his outs-
tay inspection, and seen viewing the lcde. in the
back of the 100 r fathom level, frequently exclaimed, " Beau-
tiful, beautiful," but seemed to be more surprised at the
means employed for raising the water, and ob d that he
had mines in his country, but not the machinery necessary
for draining and working them. After changing his dress,
his highness sat in front of the account house for half
an hour or more, and partook of a basket of cherries, pre-
muted to him by Miss Jackson, residing near the mine, and
who was very liberally rewarded for thus presenting the
only kind of refreshment his highness c Ain partake o'. The
party came up the river as far as the Tavy in one of her
Majesty's steamers, and then in boats, landing at Mills.,
head, between the mine and Ward-quay, and returned in
the lame way a little before eight o'clock. His highness
presented hie sol-umbra to James Wolfentan, Esq , the
menager of the mine, and liberally rewarded Captein
Tremayne, the agent.

TUE ALTEN MINING As'SOCIATION received de-
spatches yesterday from Norway, dated 15th July, with
• bill of lading of the shipment of 72 tons refined cop-
per in ingots to the Thanes, per ship Emma. The esti-
mated produce for the month of June is 126 tons of
ore, containing 8 tons of fine copper. The quantity
is less than usual, owing to the great numb .r of hands
employed in unloading coal vessels; the whole of the
force on the establishment have now returned to the
mines, and a great increase in the monthly produce is
expected. The mines generally hold out fair pro-
spect*.
QU.SNANGEN MINING ASSOCIATION.—The de-
mach's receivedyesterday from the mines, dated 17th
July, are important, and some highly favourable
changes have taken place. The report states :At lode
C. we have cut a good course of ore, from 2; to 3 feet
big; the lode is principally comp.wed of rich yellow
ore throughout, together with a little iron pyrites in
a matrix of quartz and lime. A fery days ago, whilst
investigating the mountains in company with toe
mine agent, another new lode was discovered, con-
taining purple and grey ore and copper pyrites of the
richest quality. This lode is situated a short distance
to the westward of lode C.; its size at the Budges
varies from 3to 9 feet. . . .

" Mr. Rosen came to Alten on Sunday last, and
brought samples of the new discoveries. The ore is
of an unusually rich quality; the stones are massive,
and very promising, and are superior to anything of
the kind found here for the last eight years. The
prospects of the works have thus undergone a highly
important and valuable change within the last fort-
night, and we have every reason to feel highly grati-
fied, and I hope the trials now making will develop
hemselves, and enable us to hand you a further con-
firmation of this most cheering report by next poet."

The LORD-CHANCELLOR bad refrained from spoilt.
lag ea this subject he'ort, bivalve he thought that the way
in which it bad been brought before the house was Irrelevant,
and because it was possible that he might have to pronounce
a decision on the subject is another plies. If his leaned
friend would give the bongo a legitimate opportunity for a
debate on the subject, he (the Lord C ) would an
(intake to prove that the Sawa of the Attorney• General

Lord BROUGHAM insisted that he bad hew perfectly in

of 13V J.Bassilly to act as Le had done, bat it walla gaieties

CIVIL LIST.
Lord Remnant and nose other peen were appointed to
coaduet the eonlefehee between the two Uses on the
County Counts Enemies Bid.
Lord BROUGHAM said that he wished to see aa exact
account of the savings which had boon aimed is the eivil
Nat. No one amid be less disposed to overthrow the bar-
gala made with Ins grime, but at the same time there could
be ao objection to the production of the papers for which he
was about to move. By the revenue returns it appeared that
upwards of 148,00 W had beget saved in the civil list on the
year 1849, and Its wanted to know the different depart-
ments is which that saving bad bleu effected. The noble
bed then sassed into various details connected with hi.
motion, ad concluded by Macias that though he had no
objection to withdraw it sor the protest gigolos, he should be
PIT:.to renew it at an early period next yew.
!dinged' of LANSDOWNE objected altogether to the
motion of the noble lord, bees 'e considered that any re-
turn conaeoted with the arrangement of the civil list would
be a violation of a compact sawed tato between the Sore-
riga and parliament. Considering the temper of these
times, kw was prepared to mist the loan infringement of
that onspeet. if any applicadoe for montane to the
civil list were made to parliament it would be time enough
to inquire into the way in which the sums granted by that
list had bees spent. but no such application had been made
by her Majesty, and there would be as much indecorum in
instituting any inquiry on the subject as there would be in
sailing upon any private gentleman for an account of the
way in which he spent his income.
Lord BROUGHAM explained that in framing his motion
he had wished to avail all indecorous invirsigations.
The Duke of WELLINGTON was 'eerie to any inquiry
as to the way in which the money allotted to the eeveril
dame in the civil lige had been sprat. He could bear testi
many to the great paerosity evinced by her Makaty on
several occasions, and had often objected that sufficient pro-
vision bad not been made for be demands on the bounty of
the crows.
Lord MONTEAGLE expressed hi. regret that the present
motion should have ban med.. This was the first time it
bad ever entered into any one's head to inquire into the es.
peaditure of the civil l.st, and for his port he had always
tkoi.ght;that the arrangement entered into is this matter
-between the crown and parliament wag final. Having had
the honour to terve under two ',missive sovereigns he was
happy to state that no persons ever felt gee .ter alarm at tte
idea of incurring debt, ore firmer determination to live bade-
p odent:y within the income aniseed to them than the late
King and her preeent Majesty.
Lord BROUGHAM thought that his old whiff friends
had mightily changed slue they had tasted the sweet' of
ally. He moneyed the time when Ia the House of Com-
mon he mode nylons for inquiry into the revenues of the
grown, for whisk hie friends woo now displayed such extreme
seagitivenegs erred without a word of objecion.
After came further disturbs the motion was withdrawn.

in it ulna rendered it a nosey bill, and the gram ma
being of opinion that it did satreash upon the privileges of

The SPEAKER bad looked at the clause us question,
sad, se far as he could undentand, it did appear to autho-
rise, under certain circumstances, the issue of a certain sum
eel of the ceasolidated fund. As such it wee clearly a money
bill, sad one the introduction of which in mother place
sleeted the privileges of that home. (Rear, hem.) He
cesearred, therefore, wish the hon. member for Kerry that
it ought to be laid aside.
Lord J. RUSSELL, after what had fallen Isms the chair,
would not ask the house to proceed with this measure, but
moved that the order for the second reading be discharged,
and his right hon. friend (84 W. Somerville) would then
mom for leave to balm in tooth,/ bill instead.

will not part with pawns of preeerving peace if I do not feel
tioneincied that theardinary laws withal' sash exmordiaary
powers will meals the govenissat to =Matteis pens. The
noble lord said he had had a Wan la the ceangutese of
the abaadonsamit of the Arms Ad not to part with powen
mktalatad to preserve the Indio peace until the ordinary
law was found snakiest for that purpose. Be was, however,
count that the art should be caudated sly until the 31st
of Doonaber, 1351, and the ant main of pnliament.
Parliament would then hue the gaieties pia be-
fore them, and have to coaskin whether the continuanos
of such powers was desirable. Bat (said Lord John)
I would certainly entreat the house not at pitman to
dodoes that they are quits satisfied that no sash pow-
ers are ascusary sad that Inland should be left
daring the ant autumn, without the exercise of each Rowers.
With reined to the landlord and tenant question, which was
sae of extreme difficulty, ks noble lord said the cabanas,-
meat is which the government had been pissed by attempt-
ing to legislate nut this sabjeet had reduced them to the
alternative uf either ezeiting discontent in the north of in-
land, or actin' cosine, to the rubes which ought to regulate
the rights of property—la fact, to a certain extent, treader-
riag property from one to another. tacker these circus-
steam, and cos sidering the intrinsic difficulties of the wres-
tler, the government had thought it 'Nominal to pause for a
tins bekre they urged forward a measure opts this nbjest,
though they had not been backward in intrados:lag other
11 meanns beset:id to Inland. _ . _

Mr. M. J O'CONNELL would not eppeas the introdu
lion of the bill, as its operation had been limited to two years
Mond of four ; bat he could not dissect from the reeelatioa
moved by Mr. Crawford.
Mr. BRIGHT masidered that no case bad been made oat
for the ineleare, end that the diminutioa of crime and out.
rap is Irelaad bad aeima from other ceases. The bill
being, in las opiasoa, asamsomary, he elould oppose lie
letroduetioa.

Mr. MOORE moved that the debate be adjourned, and
after a long, desultory, and somewhat angry discussion, ula
division advises to that swim Lord J. Russell gave way,
and the debate was adjourned until after the other orders at
the evening sitting.
The home resumed 1.0 sittings at half-put 3 o'clock.

TURNPIKE ROADS RETURNS.
Mr. BOUVERIE brouaht up a large bundle 01 returns
respecting turnpike roads, which he begged to lay on the
table, instead of forwarding to the Journal-office, in order
that the boas. might see the nature et returns which mem-
bers occasionally, without consideration, moo, d lor. These
returns had occupied two years in preparation, and were
utterly valueless. (Hear, hear.) It might be desirable that
some means should be adopted by the now., to prevent the
unnecessary trouble and expense thus cccuioned.
After ems conversation as to the expense of printing, the
returns were ordered to lie on the table.
