man pve a detailed but brief amount of it. proceedings,
and set out the evidence, which he had obtained that Dr.
Livingstone was not murdered by the Masetu,
or any other tribe, and that the Johanna men
deserted him soon after he had left Marengo, and
returned by the same route that he had taken. The expe-
dition met with no difficulties until it reached Chibisa, on
the 6th of last August. At that place, which is a Porto•
geese station, Mr. Young learned that the Masetu were in
fall faros on the Shire, burning the houses and murdering
she natives, and he therefore arranged that if their pre-
sence should prevent the Makololo from accompanying
him, the Portuguese should send, as they were very ready
to do, 100 or 150 men to his moisture. With some diffi-
culty, however, Mr. Young induced a party of the litho-
lolo, by whom the expedition was well received, to render
their services. The cataracts were passed in four days and
a half, and on the 29th August the party reached Kom-
punda. At this place they first heard from a native of a
white man having pseud through Marinade, at the south
end of Lake Nahum As they proceeded the statement
was confirmed, and the information was added, that after
resting at Mapunda the traveller had proceeded in a
westerly direction. He himself felt convinced thatthis must
be Livinptone, but did not express this belief, because had
he acne so the Maboldo whom ha had only engaged to
remain with him until he had obtained evidence either
that the doctor had gone on in safety or had been killed,
would have insisted upon returning. After it was fairly
afloat upon Lake Niasea, the steel boat was steered as
nearly as possible for the Arab landing place as laid down
by Dr. Livingstone. Before long a heavy gale came on,
and for three hours the little vessel ran along the coast;
her commander eagerly searching for a place of shelter.
The blabololos were so frightened that they laid down in
the boat and refused to assist in baling it out. At kngth
a sheltered place was found, and Mr. Young and his
companions landed to dry their clothes. At this place
they met only one native, who was at first much fright-
ened,
_but afterwards stated that a year before an English-
man had passed through the village' coming from the
Arab settlement, and had gone south to Mapunda. He

NATURALISATION AND IZPATRIATION.

The discussion on Mr. John Westlake's paper
on " Naturalisation and Expetriation, or • Change of
Nationality," was resumed last evening in the Jurisprn.
deuce Department of the Social Science Association, at
their moms in the Adelphi. Mr. Frederic Hill, who a
fortnight ego moved the adjournment of the debate, com-
menced the discussion. .He was followed by Mr. Charles
Clarke, and at the close at that gentleman's remarks Mr.
Westlake said be had been told that the only right by
which Mr. Samuelson sat in the Hones of Commons was
that; his grandfather was born in Virginia when Virginia
was an English colony. Dr. Wsddilove, the chairman,
said the question of naturalisation and expatriation could
not be so malty settled as some imagined. It bad been
before the world for some time but treated with in-
differeut carelessness. Public atter:tier/4°w, however, was
so imperatively forced upon the matter that something must
be done. The recent Fenian trials had shown us how in-
convenient and absurd the system was as it at lament
existed. V encouraged emigration, and the mitt' ants in
course of tint. became quasi American citizents ; never-
theism, we claimed their allegiance, although, as the
American war showed, we did not give them correspond.
tog protection. The contract was in point of fact one•
sided, and the thing could net be held in abeyance any
longer. As far as America was concerned, we most have
a little concession on Loth sides. We ought not to set the
American government at defiance, but endeavour to wive
the question harmoniously and peaceably. He suggested
that the properly qualified committees of the asscciation
should join in devising • scheme to secure what was
wanted. Mr. Merriman said it was perfectly monstrous
that a man should be unable to change his nationality if
he wished to do so ; and another gentleman said some
friends of his, Prussians long engned in trade in England,
were summoned to Freesia during the war, to lake part in
it. Some of them obeyed the summons, but One who did
not dared not now return, for fear of the puniehment to
which he Lad become amenable. Mr. Chisholm .matey
and others who had expressed their views at the previous
sleeting, were allowed the privilege of speaking a second
time, as the debate appeared to be on the point of dying
out at an early stage of the proceedings. Mr. Westlake
replied on the whole, and the practical result was the
reference of the question to the standing committee on
---vtional law.

During the agitation which took place in Man-
chester many yews ago in favour of a national :sting for
education it was proposed by some members of a commit-
tee to include in the scheme a provision for allowing
religions instruction to be given by ministers of various
denorsiestidons in the school buildings themselves. This
was objected to among others by the Rev. Francis Tucker,
then of Maacheeter and now of London, and who was one
of the few evangelical ministers who at that time were In
favour of the Manchester project. Mr. Tucker wrote to
Mr. Cobden on the subject, and received from him the
following interesting reply :

ILidlunt, Nov. 3, ISM..

" My dear sir,—Your letter reached me yesterday, only,
in consequence of my absence from home, or I would have
replied to it earlier. I agree with you entirely in your
views u respects the ' facilities • to be afforded for reli-
gious education. I prefer your interpretation to that of
thou who would wish that places in the school building
itself should be set apart for the use of ministers of reli-
gion. It cannot be denied that the reeolution sa it stands
might bear both interpretations, and some of those who
were present when it was agreed to, and probably the
reverend seconder himself, appeared to wish that con-
'enlist space in the school butg ahoulti be set apart
roe an '-iitiillViii -tailors. he interpnitilion 1
.. .. .

should wish to put upon my resolution is this,—that
we wish to be understood as willing to give all facilities for
ministers of religion to reach the children which they could
peesibly have if secular schools did not exist. For inetanoe
bike an extreme case. I am living here in a primitive little
pubit (Heyshott) where everybody goes to the parish
eharalt,—now let as suppose that the clergyman has his
stated periods for catechising or instructing in religion the
children of the parish. I should say that in such a case
the secular teacher ought to afford every facility for
enabling the children to attend those religious services.
And so I would say of every other denomination and of
every case that might arise. We should recognise the
necessity at giving religious instruction, and not
being ourselves competent to give it, we ought to set
out with the avowal that we were anxious to afford those
who have, the opportunity of giving it. But I agree
with you that we ought not to profess to find rooms in
the school-house for the purpose. I hope your view will
be generally concurred in. May I hope that you will be
good enough to confer with the other promoters of the
plan, and give it your influential co-operation? and
believe me, my dear air, most faithfully yours,
"Bev. F. Tucker." " R. CDROM

" CaNSCRINO " A LEOISLAToIt.—In the Ameri-
can House of Representatives, on the 15th, Mr. Dimes
I moved the following resolution:—" Resolved. That Fer-
nando Wood, a member of the house from the State of
New York, hat ing this day used in debate upon the floor
of this house the following words: ' A nionstrucity, a
measure of the most infamous of the many infamous acts
of this infamous Conine' deserves, therefore, the cau-
ser* of this house ; and the Speaker is hereby directed
forthwith to pronounce that censure at the bar of the
house." Mr. Eldridge moved to lay the resolntion on
the table. The motion was docided in the negative. The
"previous question " wu then seconded, and the house
proceeded to vote by yeas and nays on the adoption of the
resolution. The vote resulted as follows :—Yeas, 114 ; nays,
Is. So the resolution was adopted, and the Speaker,
in accordance with it, proceeded to administer a censure
to Mr. Wood, in the following words : Mr. Fernando
Wood—May's treaties on the laws, privileges, and usages
lof parliament, from which we derive the fundamental
principles of our parliamentary law, in speaking of occur-
rent= like that which has calmed the vote, the result of
which has just been announced, thus speaks :—" It is
obviously unbecoming to permit offeusive expressions
ageing the character and conduct of parliament to be
used without rebuke, for they are not only a contempt
of that high court, but calculated to desirede the legis-
lature in the estimation of the people. If directed
against the other house and passed over without
censure, they would appear to implicate one house
in discourtesy to the other. If against the house in which
the words are spoken, it would he impossible to overlook
the disrespect of one of its own members. Words of this
objectionable character are poken but in anger,
and when called to order, the member must see the error
into which lie has been misled ; be must retract and make
a satisfactory apology. Should he fail to satisfy the house
in this manner, he will be punished by a reprimand or
by commitment. Having violated this, the uniouseversallbur
y
reminisced rule of parliamentary law the h
ordered its censure to be pronounced upon you by
its presiding officer. This duty having been nerfonued
you will resume your seat. Mr. Ross inquired whether
Mr. Wood having paid this penalty was not entitled the
Mime. of his hour. The Speaker replied that the house
bad decided otherwise. Mr. Wood said he would like
the house to permit him to finish his remarks. (Derisive
laughter from the Republican side.) The Speaker said
that could only be done ty a reconsideration of the vote
refusing to let the gentleman proceed. Mr. Wood said,
Sir, I shall finish them before the country.
