IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT

HOUSE OF LORDS—This Evening,
The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat ou the woolsack
at the usual hour.

NOTICE OF A MOTION OF WANT OF CONFI-

DENCE.

The Earl of M3,LIIESBURY gave notice that on Fri-
day next he should move, in reference to the termination of
the Conference, a resolution which he would read. The
noble earl then stated the terms of his resolution, the words
of which were similar to those employed by Mr. Disraeli in
his motion in the House of Commons.
THE DANO-GERMAN WAR.
Lord STRATFORD DE RED CLIFFE said that to-
morrow, before the orders of the day were commenced, he
should ask a question of Earl Russell respecting
the correspondence which was published in the
Morning Pest of Saturday last relating to the Conference.
He would state to-morrow his reasons for believing the
documents more likely to Le genuine than was generally
supposed.

Earl RUSSELL, in'referenee to:the genuineness of the
correspondence, was understood to say that it was denied
by Prusaia only.
EDUCTION IN IRELAND.

Viscount CLANCARTY rose to call the attention of
the house to the petitions that have beam presented against
the alterations recently made by the Board of National
Education in Ireland in their rules with regard to the grants
to conventual schools, and asked whether it was the inten-
tion of her Mejesty's Government to sanction them.
London, England, 1864-07-04

As an illustration of the facility and certainty
with which the blockade is now defied I will
mention in conclusion a few facts. Between the
Ist of May and the Ist of June no less than twenty-
four vessels made the port of Wilmington safely
without disaster befalling a single vessel. No
wonder that piles upon piles of Government goods
are stored here, awaiting, when there is less strain
upon the railroads, transportation to Richmond and
Atlanta. lam informed by the Government agent
here that in his whole experience he has never lost
a single outward-bound letter. A gentleman at
Bermuda, the agent of an eminent English firm, told
me that during two years he had sent an average
of three mails per month from Bermuda and Nassau
into Secessia, and that the whole time only two
mails had been lost.

I shall defer until my arrival in Richmond any
remarks upon the condition of military affairs in
Virginia and Georgia as I find them at this moment,
britfly remarking that it is infinitely more en-
couraging in every respect than I had been led at
Halifax to anticipate.
London, England, 1864-07-04

LONDON, MONDAY, JULY 4, 1864.

The House of Commons meets to-tight under
circumstances of the utmost interest and impor-
tance. The result of the debate to be commenced
this evening will, it is no exaggeration to say, be
awaited with anxiety, not only by politicians and
partizins, but by the country and by Europe. The
question at stake is riot the rise or fall of a States-
man, the triumph or downfall of a Party. It is
not a question between Lord PALMERSTON and
Lord DERBY, between Mr. GLADSTONE and
Mr. DISRAELI. It is not even a question of peace
or war, it is a question, to us Englishmen, of far
more importance—it is a question which vitally
concerns the honour and faith of England. It is
not so much that our supremacy in the councils of
Europe is at stake; much as we may justly value
that, there is something still dearer to us all—our
own national integrity and self-respect. This
integrity and self respect, we believe, may, as we
have more than once reiterated, be even yet
honourably maintained without War. Whoever
can accomplish that desirable result is the man of
the hour, the Minister for the people, no matter
what his party. If Lord PALMERSTON and Lord
RUSSELL can achieve this object, their triumph
in the division will be right welcome. If, as they
seem to intimate, that power has slipped from their
grasp, then, indeed, their defeat will be a subject
of general satisfaction. The present is one of those
occasions so justly recognised by Sir ROBERT PEEL
on the subject of the Corn Laws, when the inte-
rests of Party must give way to the paramount
interests of the people. While these grave inte-
rests are at issue, it is somewhat surprising to
notice the gay flippancy with which Lord PAL.
MERSTON on Saturday, as
Master of the Trinity-
house, proposed the health of her MAJESTY'S
Ministers at the customary banquet. Equally
amazing, under, the cireumstaneee,
s the language
of another veteran statesman at
another banquet
which took place on Saturday. At the Law Ailiend-
ment Society's Dinner, Lord Bac:stole&11 actually
attempted
arbitration the present disastrous resultof
arbitration as " a step in social progress." « 'Can.
not help feeling it," said the noble lord, " as rather
a step in social progress, that instead of having
recourse to arbitrament of the sword, we should
have recourse only to serious complaint and reason-
ing with the wrongdoer—that we should rather try
the effect of the moral influence and the expressed
opinion of the public who are wholly disinterested
both on one side and the other—that we should have
made protestations, have given our advice, and have
entered into these negociations in order to support
the right and to condemn the wrong—l say that it
is a step in social progress, that having done all
this, we should stop short of actual force and refuse
to throw away our forces is an impossible expedi-
tion for the sake of revenging the injury that
has been done to others. I AIM, however, far

[ADVERTISEMENT.] - Holloway's Ointment and Pills.—
Hearty and Healthy.—The experience of thousands both
at home and abroad has amply demonstrated the power
poesessed by these healing and purifying remedies of re-
moving cutaneous eruptions, repairing ulcerati. ns, and
relieving &rules and abscesses. These hidden evils fre-
quently rob life of every comfort through the reluctance of
the sufferer to expose his infirmity. Holloway's ointment
supersedes such dreaded publicity by placing within the
reach of all plain instructions for curing themselves without
any danger, and without the necessity of mentioning their
malady to any one. The ointment and pills will likewise
cure bad legs, scabby rashes, and those blemishes which
arise from the abuse of mercury, and from the use of other
deleterious drug.

THE GREAT GAOL AT CALCUTTA.
Mr LESLIE asked the Secretary of Stare for India,
whether there was any foundation for the statements con-
tained in the letter of the Indian correspondent in the Tildes,
which appeared in that paper on Friday last, regarding the
condition of the great gaol at Calcutta, " that it is a den
of iniquity, a sink of filth; that no one could inform the
President of the Sanitary Commission how many pri-
soners died in the gaol; that the medical attendant could
not say fur certain what the mortality was; and that
some prisoners have been murdered by the native
gaolers in the attempt to extort bribes from them and their
friends." And, whether her Majesty's Government would
consent to lay upon the table of the house the report of Mr
Strachey, the President of the Sanitary Commission, en
the subject of the Calcutta and other Indian prisons.
Sir C. WOOD said he had received no information on the
subject.

Brecknock Arms the fare wa4 threepence each, and the
same was charged for all distances beyond the Britannia.
Witness told his driver to go on, when prisoner caught

prisoner gave him a tremendous blow with hug wicket bat

by a young man and given into custody.
Prosecutor handed in a medical certificate, which set forth
that his eye was most fearfully cut, and the bone of his nose
broken.

Mr Mansfield said he did not know what injuries the pro-
secutor had received, but he trusted that he would go on
well under the surgical treatment. Unfortunately in such

Fair supplies of new potatoes are on sale at these markets.
and the demand for them rules steady, at from 53. to Bs.

the import, last week, having amounted to only 1559 baskets
from Dunkirk-979 Rotterdam-106 Boulogne—,l6 Jersey

is dull. The best samples command 50s to 555; but in-
ferior produce is selling at 20s to 40s per ton.

BOROUGH HOP.

The accounts at hand from the P►antations this morn-
ing are not to say favourable, but the latest advices from
the continent and America report favourably respecting
the appearance of the plant. The supply both of English
and toreign hops on sale is very moderate, nevertheless, the
trade is dal, and the quotations have a downward tendency.
Last week's import was 477 bales from New York.

The demand for seeds has been very moderate, but no
change of importance has taken place in the quotations.
The inquiry for linseed was very dull, and the value of
East India ruled the turn in favour of buyers. Rapeseed

After the explanations in Parliament on Monday

prices both of combing and clothing descriptions improved.

John Burton, park constable, said that in consequence of
nuumereus complaints of the prisoner, he kept his eye on
him, and on Saturday evening he saw him sitting on the
same seat as the two girls were, and saw him with a book
showing them. He spoke to the girls, and in consequence
of what they said took the prisoner into custody, end found
the book upon him.
Mr Lewis having addressed the magistrate on the pri-
soner's behalf,
Mr Tyrwhitt said the case vs as clearly proved against the
prisoner, and his conduct was first that of corrupting girls
and then making wretched women of them. It was through
such persons as the prisoner that respectable females were
prevented from taking fresh air in the parks. He should
commit the prisoner for three months with hard labour.

A second charge was then preferred against the prisoner
by a young girl named Agnes Burns, in service at High-
street, Notting-hill, and the case being clearly proved
against the prisoner, Mr. Tyrwhitt said it was the duty of
a magistrate, when these cases were proved, to inflict the
full punishment, and he should, therefore, commit the pri-
soner for a second term of three months, with hard
labour.
London, England, 1864-07-04

Royal Botanic Society of London,

There was a magnificent exhibition at the society's gar-
dens, in the Regent's-park, on Saturday. The fruits,
especially the grapes, pines, and peaches, might, from their
size and richness, have been gathered in a garden that had
been presided over by Pomona herself. There was one pine
amongst those exhibited that weighed over ten pounds,
and there were three bunches of grapes more than ten
pounds each. These fruits did, indeed, look magnificent,
but we must add that they were very tantalising alto. The
exotic orchids were very beautiful, and so were the gera-
niums. The ambition of the growers of geraniums appears
now to be to exhibit the largest plant in the smallest pot.
Among the company preiient were the Princess Mary of
Cambridge, the Bishop of Oxford, Marquis of Bristol, Earl
of Horne, Earl of St. German's and Countess of St. Ger
man's, Lord Chesham, Lord Yarborough, Lord A. Hervey,
Lady Mary Hervey, Lord Alfred Hervey, Lady Laura
Palmer, Lrdy Elizabeth Waldegrave, Lady Duncombe,
Lady Julia Powers, Lady Anson, Lady Laura Gratton,
Lady Mary Stanley, Lady Cremorne, Lady Frances Rus-
sell, Lady Yarborough, Lady Proby, Lady Bannerman,
Lady Isabella Blatchford, Lady Painter, Lady M'Farlane,
Baron Nathan Da Rothschild, Sir Walter Stirling, Sir
Philip Duncombe, Sir John Anson, Sir William Hooker,
General Dixon, Colonel Hammer, Hon. Mrs. Calthorpe,
Hon. Mr and Mrs Twistleton, Miss Burdett Coutts, Mrs
Gladstone and family, and the Portuguese, Russian,
Danish, Spanish, and Austrian Ministers. •
The bands of the Ist Life Guards and of the Royal Horse
Guards performed during the day a selection of overtures
from the principal operas, marches, and dance music.

On Friday evening Colonel MlMnrdo, the inspeo

or-general of volunteers, was entertained at a
banquet at Edinburgh. In speaking of the condition and
prospects of the volunteers, the gallant Colonel bare high
testimony to their efficiency, and said he considered their
present strength to be but the nucleus of what would be
required in times of war, The number at present enrolled
was 163,003, of whom about 130,000 or 140,000 were efficient,
Judging by the number who had passed through drill, and
-etired from the force, he calculated that in an emergency
the volunteers would very rapidly increase to 200,000.
Colonel 111`Murdo made a passing allusion to another body
of volunteers, the yeomanry, whom he said he should like
to make more of soldiers than they now are."

For the time of year the supply of meat on sale at the e

is slow; nevertheless prices are without material change
from Monday last.

BOROUGH HOP.

The accounts at hand from the Plantations this morn-
ing are not to say favourable, but the latest advioes from
the continent and America report favourably respecting
the appearance of the plant. The supply both of English
and foreign hops on sale is very moderate, nevertheless, the
trade is dull, and the quotations have a downward tendency.
Last week's import was 477 bales from New York.
BOROUGH AND SPITALFIELDS.

Fair supplies of new potatoes are on sale at these markets.
and the demand for them rules steady, at from ss. to Bs.
per cwt. Very little foreign produce, however, is on offer,
the import, last week, having amounted to only 1559 baskets
from Dunkirk-979 Rotterdam-106 Boulogne—M Jersey
—and 20 barrels from Oporto. For old produce, the trade
is dull. The best samples command 50s to 55s ; but in-
ferior produce is selling at 20s to 40s per ton.
