system, b;
on the subject. The Militia Ballot Suspension Bill
passed a third reading. In, the House of
,Commons,
at the early sitting, in the voting of the supplies,
including a vote for what we may term the " sea
militia," Lord C. Paget explained the objects of
this force. It was intended that 30,000 men should
be enrolled for service in the navy, for five years,
.to be ready when called upon, each volunteer to
receive £5 bounty and £5 a-year during the five
years; to go into training twenty-eight days out of
the year. A bill was introduced for this object, but
the discussion was brought to an end by the
house adjourning. In the evening the breach of
privilege case, in which Dr. Michell, the present
member for Bodmin, was charged by Mr. Roebuck
with having entered into an arrangement to vacate
his seat at the end of the present session, if those
who had petitioned against his return wonld abandon
their proceedings was proceeded with. It was
moved by Mr. Roebuck that it would be a breach of
privilege if any member of the House should accpt
the stewardship of the Chiltern Hundreds, or any.
other office to disqualify him.from sitting in parlia-
ment, when any such imputation as, that alleged ,by
Dr. Michell was uninvestigated. The resolution was
negatived by a large majority: -
We publish late news from India this morning.
It will be seen that it is rather important. The
recruits at Barrackpore had taken their discharge,
and the sth Europeans; at Berhampore, had returned
to duty, with a few exceptions. The rebels ,at
Nepaul had been making their appearance on the
frontiers, and nearly 100 of them had been killed.
The second edition of the Times has a letter from its
Bombay correspondent. Speaking of the Governor-
General's order as to the English troops, he writes :
—" The sth European Regiment, stationed at Ber-
hampore, are, by a sort of postcript attached to the
General Order, excluded from its operation, until
its conduct, which has only recently come to
the knowledge of Government, shall have been
inquired into and reported upon. If rumour is to
be relied on, the behaviour of this regiment has
been disgraceful. The men, with the exception of
160 of them, are said to be in open mutiny, and to
have intrenched themselves in the barracks; and to
have elected their own officers, and forcibly removed
the ammunition and powder from the hospital, where
it had been lodged by the magistrate, in order to be
beyond their reach. A detachment of Artillery,
and of her Majesty's 99th Foot, and of the Buff's,
has been sent from Calcutta to Berhampore.
Of the rebels and their sundry remnants .I have
heard no news from any part of India. Sir Hope
Grant's despatch had been published, which details
his last action at-Jerwah Pass-with a body of rebels
under the Nana and Bala Rao. The loss inflicted
upon the enemy was not great, but their flight was
precipitous, and continued for many days, and until,
it is said, they had placed the second range of hills
between them and -the British. In concluding,; his
despatch, the General states that he ' considers there
is no probability of the rebels attempting to re-enter
Oude this season.'

The news from the Continent does not possess
much importance this morning. The Governor of
Lombardy has published a decree, declaring that none
of the property of the Jesuits now under sequestra-
tion can be mortgaged until further orders.
The Independence Beige states that the French
Government has definitely resolved to employ in
works of public utility the 150,000,000 francs which
remains unexpended of the loan of 500,000,000.
The money was borrowed for the war in Italy. This war
has ended ; but the people of France are not satisfied
at the denouement of Louis Napoleon's campaign on
the banks of the Mincio. We are rather afraid that
the lenders of the money will not be pleased. at the
rather off-hand manner in which the " Emperor of
the French" disposes of their investments.
The Vienna Gazette contains ministerial ordinances
revoking the restrictions which were imposed on
commerce and navigation on account of the war with
France. They, however, maintain for the present
the interdiction to export horses and mules. Although
this seems a very trifling matter, it shows how the
wind blows. Austria is evidently not satisfied that
peace has been restored to Europe, and she keeps her
horses and mules for an emergency. How is it, now
that disarmament is all the rage, that we do not hear
of any reduction in the Austrian army P
The Paris correspondent of the Daily News says,
"it is expected that the Moniteur will, in a day or
two, publish a note in reference to the French Con-
ference which' will confirm the lately announced
pacific disposition of the French Government."
The official journal of Lombardy denies the reports
published by certain papers as to the object of the
mission of Count Reisef, and states that the French
diplomatic agent has received instructions from his
government, which are favourable to the wishes of
Italy.
