LONDON, FRIDAY, MAY 11, 1855.

Sir ERSKINE PERRY has entitled himself to the
thanks and gratitude of the community, for the
masterly manner in which he treated the im-
portant subject which he last night brought under
the consideration of the House of Commons and
the nation. He has already amply avenged the
slight cast upon himself, and the gallant and dis-
tinguished body of men, of whom he was the
faithful and efficient advocate, by the " count-
out" of Tuesday fortnight. The just claims of
the Indian army can no longer be shelved by a
Ministerial trick, or even by a Ministerial sneer:
They have recently received a small instalment of
justice ; but, trivial7pd, insignificant as was that
instalment, taken per fie, it might be regarded as
the intaroduction of " the shirp end of the wedge,"
by means , whereof the defences of ignorance
and prejudice by -which a full measure of
justice was obstructed and delayed will
speedily be rent in sunder. Within little
more than a fortnight the House readily gave the
required hearing ; and, although we cannot but
deplore the decision arrived at, we feel that the
discussion was eminently useful, and that it has
paved the way to the full and complete success,
at some future and not very remote period, which
the proposition so pre-eminently merited.

Let us now look to the result of the division of
last night. By a very decided majority of nearly
three to one (171 to 62), the representatives of
the people of Great Britain resolved that it was
not expedient or proper to appoint a select com-
mittee to inquire how the army of India might be
made moat available for war in Europe, or the
steps necessary to be taken if it should be deemed
advisable to constitute the army of the East India
Company a Royal army. Matters are so exceed-
ingly auspicious just at this moment—the po-
litical atmosphere is so perfectly cloudless, that
Parliament can repudiate the services of several
hundred thousand veterans rather than wound
the too tender susceptibilities of those who, having
purchased their commissions, have a right to de-
mand that nothing should be done to depreciate the
value of the commodity for which they have paid
down hard cash. These gentlemen, or their
friends, earnestly protest against " Free Trade"
in military appointments. They must be pro-
tected against the competition of the tried and
experienced veterans of the Anglo-Indian service,
the Secretary for War gravely remarked, it is
only fair that they should have their turn for
acquiring a knowledge of military affairs, and
that they may have the chance, the country is to
submit to the loss of the services of men who could
have avoided the mischances that more than
quadrupled the losses occasioned by the War—and
who might have led to its termination long ere this
had they been employed. In other words, we have
had to submit to an addition of sixteen millions to
the permanent debt, an annuity of 116,0001. for
thirty years, as well as an addition of more than
fifteen millions to our taxes, with a prospect of
an early and considerable addition thereto, in
order to preserve the venal system of military pro-
motion intact, and to keep the patronage of India
in the hands of a few elderly gentlemen, who ob-
tain ample interest for the money they invested in
what was originally, and ever ought to have been, a
purely mercantile speculation. As thp time may not
be distant, when Noble Lords (by courtesy) and
Right Hon. and Hon. Gentlemen will have to
render accounts of their respective stewardships,
it is well that their several constituents should be
thoroughly cognisant of the nature of the votes
given i,
pposation to Sir ERSKINE PERRY'S
motion.

What is it, then, that has been thus summarily,
and, we regret to be obliged to add, contumeliously
rejected ? The aid. of 457,000 trained men and
12,000 experienced officers! It is true that a
large proportiOn of these men belong to the na-
tive populations, but the sepoys, when well offi-
cered, have ever proved themselves brave and
efficient soldiers ; and there are

emergency 1 it is, indeed, too bad. It is a piece

of folly that must be speedily got rid of, co that
England may be enabled to show the mistake
made in asserting that she is not a military na-

tion.

Nearly two years ago, when Sir CHARLES WOOD
was striving to perpetuate the government of "the
Company,"
we pointed out the propriety of amal-
gamating the Company's and the Royal troops.
We proved that there was no necessity for retain-
ing the complicated machineryin Leadenhall-street,
and that the government of nearly 150,000,000 of
her subjects should thenceforward be conducted
I
in the name of the British Sovereign. An in-
competent Minister and a truckling and apathetic
and prejudiced majority thought otherwise. We
vow have learned some of the evils arising from
the India Bill of 1853. We shall know more on
the subject, if Parliament be not warned in time.
Unless it speedily pursue the course on which it
should have entered two years since, ourselves
and our children, and our children's children, will
have to lament in sackcloth and ashes the legisla-
tive blindness or corruption which prevents us from
lavailing ourselves of our most important resources
during a life-and-death struggle against such a
Power as Russia. We cannot with impunity suffer
such a continued drain on our resources, for under
the existing system India is a drain on, in place of
becoming, as it would be, the right arm of, the
empire. We are now fighting with that arm tied.
We should free it, so as to bring all our force to
bear against our gigantic and formidable opponent.
If we had the services of the Indian Army we
should rot be obliged to truckle to Germanism,
or submit to discreditable terms in order to look
for the assistance of Austria.

The nation has every reason to complain of
the mode in which public business is transacted
1 in the House pf Commons, and its results. There
far too strong a tendency to palaver, and too
little dignity, order, and resolution discernible
in its proceedings. If Honourable Members
have only opportunity to display their oratorical
powers, can further their private interests, or
glide easily through the Session, they appear to
be contented. The result is, towards the con-
clusion much remains undone that ought to have
been done, and much of what has been done has
been done badly. It is said to be a sign of weak-
ness in an individual to be perpetually in arrears ;
if so, the weakness of the House is most con-
firmed and distressing. It is always behind-hand.
The close of every Session finds it up to the neck
in business that might have been done as it ought
at an earlier period, but was left to be disgrace-
fully hurried through at last.
The House, in fact, is deficient in business
talent and public spirit, and what it has is over-
laid by Ministerial influence and routine. To be
saved trouble Members permit themselves to be
led by Ministers in anything but a creditable
manner. They will suffer measures of the utmost
importance to be hurried through committee
without deliberation, and will daudle over and
over again, by way of show, with measures of no
importance, or measures that notoriously cannot
pass. How well their business and moral calibre
i 3 appreciated by Ministers sufficiently appears
from the history of the "Education (Scotland)
Bill." When first introduced, the House saw
reason to reject it, and did so in a sufficiently
marked manner. Nevertheless—and when we
say it we mean it—to all intents and purposes
the same bill was re-introduced to be again con-
demned. It was sufficiently disrespectful to have
brought forward the bill a second time -without
alteration of its rizovisions. To do so a third
time would be disgraceful ; and yet, in point of
fact, the same bill was brought in a third time.
Government had so little respect for the House,
to say nothing of being so indifferent on the
subject of the bill, as to suffer the Lord-
Advocate to repeat the offence, and the
[rouse submitted patiently to the infliction.
We have nothing to say at present respect-
ing the merits or demerits of the bill. It may be
L good bill, one in every way calculated to effect
its purpose, or it may be a bad one, hateful to the
Scottish people, and likely to prove injurious ;
but whether good or the contrary, we say it was
too bad to have the time of the House, now grow-
ing daily more valuable, taken up by the intro-
duction of a measure on which it had once and a
second time pronounced a decided opinion by re-
jecting it. The House, however, has itself to
thank for the impertinence. If it chooses to earn
a character for indecision, want of earnestness
and self-respect, it ought not to feel any surprise
if it is treated accordingly.
It is not, however, by Ministers only, and in
this instance the House has been so treated. The
evil has extended further. Individuals are to be
found who, session after session, pursue the same
,;arne, if in a less audacious manner. Look at the
attempt so strenuously made to obtain the sanc-
tion of the House for the enclosure of Hamp-
stead-heath. On this measure the House has
cost rightly, and by a large majority, pro-
nounced an unfavourable verdict, and yet,
in one insidious shape or another, it has
session after session been reproduced, and is again,
aye understand, to be presented. We are far from
wishing a verdict of the House in all cases to be
deemed final. Far from it. We are too well
aware to what such a principle would lead. What
we object to is the time lost to the country at this
serious crisis, and the disrespect shown to the House
by the reintroduction of measures to which the
House is opposed, measures backed by no popular
apinion, and that can only be carried by sheer im-
portunity, and against the better judgment of
Honourable Members. We have indicated where
,he fault lies, and if the House will not set to
,vork to remedy it we earnestly trust the public
will set to work to reform the House.

Tn a previous article we have noticed the at-
tempt which, for some time past, has been made
to have Hampstead-heath enclosed. A bill, it
wpears, is shortly to be brought before the House
with this object. Need we say with what feel-
ings we are disposed to regard it ? Need we call
,n Honourable Members at once and indig-
nantly to reject it ? Whether we need or not,
.ve cannot refrain from doing so. The measure
is so unwarranted and of so pernicious a character,
aid the attempt to forward it has been so insidi-
ously and perseveringly pursued, that silence
night be dangerous. Here we are, denizens of

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, Two o'CLocK.

The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday
closed very firmly, but with more offering. The
sales were estimated at 10,000 bales (1,000 of
which were taken for export, and 2,000 on
speculation), comprising 160 Pernam and Maran-
ham at 51-d. to 61d., 300 Egyptian at 41d. to
71d., and 1,500 Surat at 2/d. to 4-0. per lb. The
Railway Share Market was steady.
There has been a moderate business done this
week in colonial produce, but the purchases am
still for immediate wants only. Sugar has gene-
rally been at full rates, with a good inquiry, and
although the aggregate transactions in coffee have
not been numerous, the rates have slightly ad-
vanced. Rice has ruled heavy, and saltpetre has
been dull of sale. Spices have sold slowly at for-
mer values. Tea has rather improved in demand,
and cotton has been brisk. Tallow has declined,
and hemp as well as flax have been dull. Indigo
is firmer since the first day's sale.
The ships Ellenborough and Kate have arrived
from Sydney. The amount of gold they bring is
not Yet known.
Messrs. D. Bell, Son, and Co. report that the
market for American Stocks has been quiet during
the past week, with but little alteration in

MARSEILLES, May 9.7--The quay of the Joliette is
encumbered with cannon, gun carriages, bomb shells,
and a troop of very fine artillery horses, which are being
embarked on steam-vessels and transports, to reinforce
the army in the Crimea. The quantity of. gunpowder
shipped and to be shipped for the East is incredible.
One of the Rhone boats alone brought down 150 tons of
gunpowder, 100 tons of bomb shells, and 100 gun car-
riages.
ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA. Verdi's long-promised
opera, 11 Trovatore (the "Troubadour") was produced
`est night, in the presence of a crowded and brilliant
audience, with great success. Madame Viardot Garcia
made her first appearance this season, as Azucena, the
gipsy, and was received with enthusiasm. The other
parts were sustained by Mademoiselle Jenny Ney, Sig.
nors Tamberlik, Graziani, and Tagliafico. The opera is
splendidly put upon the stage. 11 Trovalore is to be re-
peated to-morrow.
ROYAL VISIT TO THE POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTION.—
Last evening her Majesty, the Prince Consort, the
Duke of Saxe Coburg, Princess Hohenloha, Princess
Royal, Princess Alice, Princess Adelaide Hohenlohe,
Princess Feodore Hohenlohe, the Prince of Wales,
Prince Alfred, Prince Victor Hohenlohe, accompanied
by Lady Gainsborough, Lord Camoys, Baron Tre3kow,
General Buckley, Captain du Plat, Mr. Gibbs, Ste.,
honoured this institution by a visit. The building was
closed throughout the day, in order that the necessary
preparations might be made for the reception and ac-
commodation of the royal party, her Majesty having ex-
pressed a particular desire that the visit should be per-
fectly private. Prince Albert expressed his high
gratification and that of her Majesty at the various
entertainments which had been provided for them, and
the royal party left the institution shortly after eleven
o'clock.

The Queen will hold a levee (the last this season), to-
day, at St. James's Palace. In the evening, her Ma-
jesty, accompanied by the illustrious visitors at present
enjoying the royal hospitality, will honour the amateur
performance at Drury-lane Theatre with their presence.
Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cambridge and
the Princess Mary honoured the performances at the
Royal Italian Opera with their presence last evening.
The Countess of Galloway and family have arrived in

Mr. Truefitt, of the Burlington Arcade, has recently

has been decorated by Mr. C. Broadbridge, the architect,
assisted by Mr. W. Prior. the artist. The style is the
Renaissance, and the tableaux have reference to the
events of the present war. The lanthorn shape of the
room afforis the best possible light from above for the
display of artistic effects, contributing to a tout ensemble
not surpassed by any other apartment designed for
purely trade purposes in the world.
A solemn Te Deum was sung at Florence on the 4th,

sent the following telegraphic t'espatch via Kieff, dated
15th (27th) April :

" Our loss during these days was not important.
" 'The approaches of the enemy do not advance ;
their mining operations are directed against the left face
of Bastion No. 4, but they are still at some distance.'"

" 'From the 12th to the evening of the 15th (24th•
27th) nothing of importance had taken place before
Sebastopol ; the fire of the enemy is slack. We have
constructed, under their fire, on a❑ eminence 100 sagenes
in advance of Bastion No. 5, a series of lodgments,
which have been converted into a continuous trench.

CORN EXCHANGE

There has been a moderate 'arrival of English wheat up
to our •market, coastwise, this week. Fresh up to-day,
however, the receipts of that grain were small, and the show
ir
of samples was limited. Most kinds met a slo sale, yet
scarcely any change took place in Monday's cur cy.
We had a dull market for foreign wheat, 4 how of
which was by no means extensive, at Monday's' prices.
Barley and malt changed hands slowly, but no actual
decline took place in prices.
Good sound oats were steady, at full prices ; but inferior
parcels were dull, and 6.1 per quarter cheaper.
Beans, peas, and flour moved off slowly, on former

We were fairly supplied with beasts to-day. On the
whole, the demand for all kinds ruled steady, at prices
fully equal to those of Monday last. Sheep, the supply of
which was moderate, moved off freely, anti late rates were
well supported in every instance. The lamb trade was
rather brisk, and fine 1 .mbs were worth 6s 10d to 7s per
81bs. The best calves were more scarce and rather dearer,
some of them producing 5i 4d per 81bs, but other kinds of
veal met a slow sale. In pigs, very little was doing.
Mulch cows sold slowly, at from 14/ to 191. each, including
their small calf.
