SPAIN.

In reference to the Royal order issued lately at
Madrid, that no Basque shall Le permitted to form
part of the crews of vessels trading at Spanish ports
beyond the coasts of Biscay and Guipulcoa unless
he has served on board a man-of-war, a communi-
cation from Santander states that the Commandant
of Marine at that port has just received instructions
directing him to continue the clearance of ships as
before, although they have Basque seamen on board
who have not served in men•of-war. Things,
therefore, remain as they were for the present.

The quotation of gold at Paris is about 4 per mills pm., and
the short exchange on London is 25.30 per 41 sterling. On
comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3
17s. 104 d. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is
about 1-10th per cent. dearer in London than in path.
By advices fromilamburg the price of gold is 423} per mark
and the short exchange on London is 13.41 per .£1 staling.
Standard gold at the English Mint price is, therefore, rather
more than 3-10ths per cent. dearer in London than in dam-
burg.

THE ARMY.

The announcement was yesterday made at Chat-
ham of the appointment of Lieut.-Col. A. P. S.
Green to the command of the Ist division of the
Depot Brigade Royal Artillery, in succession to
Lieut.-Col. R. Talbot, who has been placed under
orders to embark for the Cape of Good Hope, to
take the command of two batteries of the 2d Brigade
Royal Artillery.
London, England, 1864-03-09

THE HORSE ARTILLERY.

Col. NORTH asked the Under Secretary of State for
War if the whole of the increased expanses caused by the
new brigade of horse artillery were to be borne by the Homo
Government, or to be shared with the Indian Government.
And whether it were intended that this augmentation should
absorb one of the supernumerary coLnels commandant of
late Indian artillery ?

The Marquis of HARTINGTON replied that the
whole expense would devolve upon the imperial revenue.
What had taken place, however, was not so much the
formation of a new brigade, as the division of the old bri-
gade of horse artillery, with its 10 batteries, into two brigades,
with five batteries each. The additional expense, which
had been incurred through the appointment of commissioned
and non-commissioned officers, had been met by other re-
ductions made in other branches of the artillery. The extra
expense therefore had been very trifling indeed. In reply
to the second question be might state that there were two
supernumerary colonels and two supernumerary lieutenant
colonels absorbed by the new arrangements on our own,
and not on the Indian list.

IMPROPER CONDUCT OF THE POLtcE.—Archibald
Stewart and James Langley, two respectable-looking young
men, were charged with stealing a shawl, the property of
Susan Whittaker. .

Prosecutrix said she was coming home from school on
Tuesday afternoon, when Langley came up to her in the
King's-road, Chelsea, and snatched her shawl, tearing it.
She followed him, and the other man and Langley ran
away, and were lost sight of. The prisoner Stewart con•
tinw.d on his way, and she and two school fellows followed
him to a public-house, where Langley was. While there
a policeman came up and asked her if she wanted
.to give
them in charge, and Langley was locked up.
Walter Smith, 260 A, said that he saw a great crowd
collected in front of a public-house, and the three girls
crying. He asked what was the matter, and they wished
to give Langley into custody for stealing a shawl. He was
accordingly locked up. He offered to make any compensa-
tion, and volunteered his address.
A respectable person having spoken to Stewart's
character,

Mr. Arnold asked what the prisoners had to say ?
Stewart said his friend was locked up for a mere lark,
and he followed to see the end, and was himself detained all
night. His character would be ruined. Langley said it
was nothing but a lark. He never had any intention of a
felony.
Mr. Arnold said the conduct of Langley was very impro-
per, but Stews] t was, in his opinon, very wrongfully before
him. There was not the slightest foundation for a charge
of felony against respecteblo young men like the ac-
cused. He should advise Langley to make some compensa-
tion, and discharged the prisoners without any stain on
their characters, The conduct of the police-sergeant, 38 V,
in entertaining the charge had been disgraceful, and he
should leave the young men to get their remedy against
the police fcr their conduct.

I MPERIAL PARLIAMEN

HOUSE OF LORDS—Last Evening.

The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at
fire o'clock.

THE DANO-GERMAN WAR.

The Earl of DERBY, without wishing to raise a dis-
cussion, or to offer any remarks upon the question, wished
to ask the noble earl the Secretary of Foreign Affairs if it
was the intention of her Majesty's Government to give any
information to Parliament of a later date than that given
by the correspondence already published. Events were
succeeding one another so rapidly as to cause the greatest
anxiety in the public mind.
Earl RUSSELL reminded the noble earl that Austria
and Prussia had refused to accede to proposals made to them
by the other European powers, and had engaged in a most
unjustifiable war, and he considered the Danish Govern-
ment quite justified in resisting the demands made upon
them, He did not think, in the present condition of affairs,
that it would be fur the public advantage that all correspon-
dence that had taken place in each step of the negotiations,
illustrative of the conrac of events and the conduct of her
3lajesty's Government, should be published, At the end
of the week her Majesty's Government expect to receive the
reply of the Danish Government in answer to the invitation
to the Congress. When that answer had been received
there would be a break in the negotiations, and that
would be a favourable opportunity for making known
the progress that had been made up to that
time. He hoped that when the answer of the belligerents
had been obtained, if that decision were favourable, there
would be little difficulty in obtaining the assent of France,
Russia, and Sweden to an invitation to going into consi •
deration of the question in the proposed congress.
Earl DERBY asked the noble earl if he could say, for
certain, whether the papers would be laid on the table pre-
vious to the Easter recess.

Earl RUSSELL said the clerks in the Foreign-office
had been so hardworked, in consequence of the number of
papers required of them, that he could not promise the
papers would be in the possession of their lordships before
the Easter holidays,

Lord STRATFORD DE REDCLIFFE hoped that her
Majesty's Government would be in a position before the
adjournment for the Easter holidays to state definitely
what course they intended to pursue with respect to the
whole question.

In reply to farther questions from the Earl of ELLEN.
BOROUGH,

Earl RUSSELL said he believed that Austria and
Prussia would require some modification to be made in the
treaty of 1852, but what they wished precisely it was im-
possible for the Government to say.

HOI7SE OF LORDS—Last Evening,

T he LORD C HANCELLOR took hie seat on the woolsack al

THE DANO-GERMAN WAR.

' The Earl of DERBY, without wishing to raise a dis-
cu 38 i on, or to offer any remarks upon the question, wished
to ask the noble earl the Secretary of Foreign Affairs if it
was the intention of her Majesty's Government to give any
information to Parliament of a later date than that given
by the correspondence already published. Events were
succeeding one another so rapidly as to cause the greatest
anxiety in the public mind.
Earl RUSSELL reminded the noble earl that Austria
and Prussia had refused to accede to proposals made to them
by the other European powers, and had engaged in a most
unjustifiable war, and he considered the Danish Govern-
ment quite justified in resisting the demands made upon
them. He did not think, in the present condition of affairs,
that it would be fur the public advantage that all correspon-
dence that had taken place in each step of the negotiations,
illrLstrative of the course of events and the conduct of her
Majesty's Government, should be published. At the end
of the week her Majesty's Government expect to receive the
reply of the Danish Government in answer to the invitation
to the Congress. When that answer had been received

there would be a break in the negotiations, and that
would be a favourable opportunity for making known
the progress that had been made up to that
time. He hoped that when the answer of the belligerents
had been obtsined, if that decision were favourable, there
would be little difficulty in obtaining the assent of France,
Russia, and Sweden to an invitation to going into consi •
deration of the question in the proposed congress.
Earl DERBY asked the noble earl if he could say, for
certain, whether the papers would be laid on the table pre-
vious to the Easter recess.

Earl RUSSELL said the clerks in the Foreign-office
had been so hardworked, in consequence of the number of
papers required of them, that he could not promise the
papers would be in the possession of their lordships before
the Easter holidays.

Lord STRATFORD DE REDCLIFFE hoped that her
Majesty's Government would be in a position before the
adjournment for the Easter holidays to state definitely
what course they intended to pursue with respect to the
whole question.
In reply to further questions from the Earl of E LLEN-
BOROUGH,

Earl RUSSELL said he believed that Austria and
Prussia would require some modification to be made in the
treaty of 1852, but what they wished precisely it was im-
possible for the Government to say,

Oder the rays from this source parallel, and transmit

THE EASTER RECESS.

Lord PALMERSTON—It will be for the convenience of
hon. members that I should say we intend to propose to
adjourn on Friday the 18th inst. until the following Mon-
day fortnight for the Easter recess.
THE BRITISH PROVIDENT SOCIETY AND THE
HON. MEMBER FOR DUDLEY.

Mr. H. B. SHE RIDAN—I wish to claim the indul-
gence of the house while I make a statement of a per-
sonal nature. I have been reminded that I omitted last
evening to reply to one point urged against me by the
Chancellor of the Exchequer. The right hon. gentleman
stated that, some five or six years ago, I was auditor
to one of the insurance companies to which he referred, and
that in my capacity as auditor—l presume the right hon.
gentleman intended to say—l passed accounts that ought
not to have been passed.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER—I beg to
call the hon. gentleman to order. I never made any such
statement.

Mr. H. B. SHERIDAN—I am very glad to hear it. But
I beg to explain that six years ago I twice acted as auditor
to the company in question, and that I then withdrew from
the office. That company was then in a position to enable
it to meet all its policy obligations—(hear)—and up to this
moment it has met all its obligations, and that all its policy-
holders are secure. Therefore, so far as my connection with
that company, six years ago, the functions I discharged
were not discharged with reference to a society which has
not been able to meet its obligations. (Hear, hear.)

LONDON, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 9, 1864.

The disasters now befalling Denmark are a
disgrace to England. It is nothing lees than dis-
graceful that England should be holding aloof all
this while, during a periud whin the soil of Den-
mark Proper, not the. of Holstein and of Schleswig,
but even that of Jutland itself, is being devastated
by a 'war brutally commenced against the Danes
by the two chief Powers of Germany. It would be
tlisgraceful,at any time and ander any circumstances,
that Eiglauththould stand aside apathetically while
outrage of this flagrant character was being
rrpetrated by two of the great powers conjointly,
and perpetrated by them upon one of the minor
powers opposed to them single-handed. As the
Earl of SHAFTESBURY remarked last evening in the
Llrds, putting the matter before us in a. mere
