THE PROPOSED ITALIAN LEGION.

Mr. BOWYER, availing himself of the privilege of
moving that the house, at its rising, do adjourn until
Monday, called the attet.tion of the house to the proba-
ble evil consequences which would result from the for-
mation of an Italian Foreign Legion. He con-
tended, at some length.• that at the conclusion
of the war, when the Legion would be disbanded,
the soldiers would flock to their native country
and there be the means of fomenting or reviving those
internal dissensions and disturbances which so short a
period ago resulted in open war. In conclusion, he
wished to ask the noble lord at the head of the Govero•
ment as to how the Government intended to provite for
the Italian Legion, so that it should not *eventually be-
come dangerous to the internal tranquillity of Italy
Lord PALMERSTON, in replying to the hon. gen-
tleman, said that of course the hon. member would with-
cliaw the motion he bad made for the purpose of entering
into the details he had done, because the next mcttuq:
of the house must depend entirely upon the proceeding-
in the other house at a later period of the day. Pro-
ceeding, then, to the question which had been put to him,
the noble lord said the Italian Legion would, he be-
lieved, consist of 3,000 or 4,000 men ; and the hon.
gentleman had applauded the decision of the Governruen;
in raising it, and bad truly said, further, that it would
consist of men fully qualified to make excellent soldiers
and to do this country good service. At the same time,
however, the hon. member seemed to apprehend that
when the war was over, and when these men returne,
to Italy, disbanded or not, they would be exceedingly
dangerous to the internal tranquillity of the country ;
and he therefore wanted to know what security there
would be when these men were disbanded that they should
not become'troublesome or dangerous in the way sug-
gested. His (Lord Palmerston's) reply was that those.
men acquired habits cf order and discipline whilst in ac-
tive service, and were, on that accouut, less likely than
any other persons to become on their return unruly sub-
jects. The noble lord concluded with some general re-
marks, in reply to some of the statements of the hon.
gentleman.
After a few words from Lord HOTEIAM on the im-
proper advantage which the hon. member (Mr. Bowyer)
had taken of the privilege of moving the adjournment
of the house, seeing that what he had had to say might
have been much more appropriately said the other even-
ing, when a speech on a similar subject was made by
the noble lord the member for the City of London, the
subject then dropped.

ARTILLERY IN THE CRIMEA.

In reply t. Sir H. WILLOUGHBY,

Mr. MONSELL said that the last despatches from
the seat of war stated that the army was well supplied
with ammunition and guns of all sorts. The number of
guns sent out within the list three weeks had been con-
siderably increased, and therefore the present state of
things was even more sati:factery than it was at the
period those despatches left.

---
EMOLUMENTS OF CLERKS OF THE PEACE.
. On the motion of Mr. WATSON, returns of the
amount of salaries, fees, and emoluments received by
the several clerks of the peace in England arid Wales
iu re=pect of their respective offices in the years
1852, 1853, 1854, and 18:55, stating in respect cf
what duties such fees are payable ; and, of the amount
of any compensation granted to them it; :aspect of their
offices, stating when, and by what authority, and for
what cause such compensation was awarded, were or-
dered to be laid upon the table of the house.
BALAKLAVA HARBOUR.
On the motion of Sir C. WOOD, a copy was ordered
of all the correspondence relative to the state of Bala-
klava harbour.

DESPATCH OF BUSINESS COURT OF CHAN-

CERY BILL.

The house then went into committee on this bill,
re
sinning the discussion upon clause 1.
Mr. MALINS condemned the policy of proceeding
with this bill at so advanced a period of the session,#vilen
so little time remained for considering it as fully
as its ituport•:nce demanded. Having entered into some
statements as to the existing Law with regard to appeals,
with the object, he observed, of impressing upon the
Guverament the deep urgency of giving this bill the
tpo.•t careful attention, in order that the system now
in force should be brong,ht to an end,
.i!Jr. L. WIGRAM thought it was most important that
the duties of the Chief Clerk should be performed by
himself, and nut by a Junior Clerk. He hoped that
some explanation would be given upon the subject.
