THE CONDUCT OF BUSINESS IN THE HOUSE OF
CotMoNS.--lin the meeting of the house, on Monday, Mr.
Gladstone will move that the standing order of the Mb
day of August, 181i3, reserving the right of her Majesty's
ministers of placing government orders at the head of the
list of orders of the day, be suspended ; and that the other
orders of the day be postponed until after the order of
the day for the committee on the Established Churth
(Leland).
METROPOLITAN BOARD OF WORE S.—The usual
meeting of the Metropolitan Board of Works was held
yesterday at the office in Spring-gardens ; Sir John
Tbwaites in the chair. The board-room was not opened
until an hour and a half after the usual time, the mem-
bers of it being in committee considering the tender for
contract No. 3 of the Thames northeru embankment.
On the public being admitted, the Chairnian said the
works on the southern embankment, from Westminster-
bridge to Lambeth Palace, were in such a condition as to
be ready to be opened, and it was the intention of the
committee that the barriers should to-day be thrown
down, and the public be admitted—there was •
hoarding the whole length. which would sufficiently
protect the entire area, and that portion of the buildings
for the St. Thomas's Hospital—but that on the 13th of
May, when it was the intention of the Queen to lay
tie first stone of the !hospital, the barriers should
again be nut up, so as to avoid on that otcasion any pos-
sible inconvenience. The board was working most har-
moniously with the hospital anthorities, but still it bad al
duty to discharge to the public to open the roadway as
coon as possible. He had had a conversation with Mr.
Tite, anal he was very anxious that the footpath should
not be opened on the day of the Queen's visit. Mr. Bid-
good regretted that it was the intention of the board to
open the footpath before the 13th of May, as they had
had enough of the violence of the people on some public
occasions. He moved that the footpath of the southern
embankment be not opened till after the 13th of May.
Lieutenant-Colonel Hogg, M.P., seconded the motion.
Mr. Westerton moved as an amendment that the roadway
be opened to-day, and that the barriers be re-erected on
the 13th of May. Mr. Howe seconded the amendment.
After a discusaion the amendment was declared to be
carried, and therefore the footway will be opened to-day.
On the business paper was the following notice, " To fur-
ther consider report of the Works and General Purposes
Committee with reference to the proposal of the Metropo-
litan District Railway Company as to the construction of a
solid embankment between the Temple and itlackfriars-
bridge ; to receive reply of the company to the proposition
made by the board on Friday last, and to pass such orders
on the subject as may be deemed advisable." It was stated
that the board still adhered to the terms they hod pro-
posed, but deferred their final determination until Friday
next, to enable the Railway Company to complete their
arrangements. A report was brought up from the Fire
Brigade Committee, the substance of which was the terms
of au arrangement with the directors of the Cryatal Palace
Company for the establishment of • fire station at the
Palace, but as they were not considered by the board as
sufficiently explicit, on the motion of Mi. Newton, the
report was referred back to the committee for further eon-
kideastion. The board then adjourned.

THE COLLIERY' STRIKE IN SOUTH LANCASHIRE.
FRIDAY.—The trial of the three young men
charged with riot atWhelley on the 20th inst., wan brought
to a close late last evening, in the Quarter Sessions Courts
before the recorder, Mr. J. Cstterall. On the morning of
the day named, the house of a knobetiok named Rowe, in
Whelley, near the Lindsay pit, was attacked by en armed
mob, who committed grievoua damage. The three prisoners
were identified as haying taken part in the disturbance by
several witnesses, and were found "Guilty," and sentenced
to penal servitude for five years. Yesterday afternoon a
demonstration was made at Rindley by the turn-outs, who
paraded the streets, accompanied by a party of musician..
The military were sent for by Inspector Peters, and
soldiers were forwarded from Plate-bridge. There
was a conflict between the turn•outs and the

special constables on duty in the neighbourhood,
and two men were taken into custody. One was brought
before the oounty magistrates at Wigan this morning, and
remanded till Tuesday next on the charge of riot. For
some days past Skelmeredele has been in an excited state,
for from :".00 to 1,000 colliers, armed with heavy bludgeons,
have patrolled the lanes at the hour when the colliers com-
mence work. These men are said to come from Wigan and
St. Helens, and there is no doubt that they were success-
ful in intimidating the knobsticks. Lord Skelmersdale's
troop of the Lancashire Hussars were called out, and on
Wednesday evening they were drawn up, in command of
Sergeant-Major Nunnerly, in front of the Railway Hotel,
where the magistrates were in consultation. The
Yeomanry remained on duty all night, special constables
were sworn in, and yesterday morning the men at Lord
Skehnersdale's collieries and at the pita of the Crow,
Orchard, and White Moss Coal Companies were able to
mums work.
A special and very numerously-attended meet-
ing of the Court of Common Council was held at the
Guildhall yesterday afternoon for the purpose of agreeing
to an address to be presented to her Majesty the Queen,
exproesing the horror and indignation felt by the court
at the recent attempt upon the life of Ina Royal Highness
the Luke of Edinburgh, and congratulating her Majesty,
with the most sincere and heartfelt feelings, upon his pro-
vidential Neaps from mortal injury.
" I am much gratified in being able to testify to
the eftlesey of your Vegetable Pain Killer. For the last
twelve months I have suffered the greatest agony from
neuralgia, which deprived me of all energy in the pursuit
of my usual avocation. Accidentally meeting your agent,
I procured a bottle of your medicine, from which I derived
the great benefit and instantaneous relief ; and I have no
hesitation in recommending it to all suffering from this
'disease of the day.'--Joain KELLY, Dublin, Oct. 21, 1867.
To Perry Davis tt Son, 17, Southampton-row, Holborn."
