THE DAY'S NEWS.

Last night, Mr. Cobden brought on his motion
condemning the course taken by the British autho
rities on the attack upon Canton, and for a Select
Committee, to enquire into the merits and demerits
of the Chinese war. He entered into a detailed
statement of the proceedings and communications
between the British authorities at Canton and
the Chinese Commissioner Yeh ; denied that
the lorcliA Arrow had any right or title to carry
the British flag, and stigmatised the conduct of
the British Admiral as being inexcusable, im-

defended the conduct of the British authorities,
and Sir Edward Bulwer Lytton, Sir E. Perry, and
Lord John Russell spoke in favour of the motion ;
after which the debate was adjourned, Lord
Palmerston fixing to-night (Friday) for its resump-

In the House of Lords last night the adjourned
debate on Lord Derby's motion came on. The Earl
of Camarvon condemned the policy of the Govern-

course. Ultimately a division took place, when
there appeared—For the motion, 110 ; against it,
146; mnjority for the Government, J 3.
The uusal weekly meetings of the Dock and Health
Committees were held yesterday. In the former
the proceedings were of but slight interest. Two
