TILE DANO-GERMAN QUESTION,
Earl RUSSELL said that a few evenings ago he had
stated that in a few days either preliminaries for peace
would be arranged between Germany and Denmark, or war
would be recommenced. He was sorry to say that the
latter alternative was likely to be the result, and that hos-
tilities would probably be resumed on Sunday. On Mon-
day next he proposed to lay on the table the protocol of the
Conference, and in so doing to state the general course of
the negotiations.

BRIBERY AND CORRUPTION.
Lord BROUGHAM laid upon rho table a bill to prevent
bribery and corruption in returning members to the House
of Commons.

The bill was Tr.ad a first t7me.

FACILITIES FOR DIVINE SERVICE IN COL-
LEGIATE SCHOOLS BILL.
The Bishop of OXFORD moved the second reading of
this bill. The whole of the clergy who had expressed an
opinion upon it seemed highly to approve of its provisions,
and thought it wou'd aid in the education of the people.
The Earl of SHAFTESB URY entirely disapproved of
the provisions of the bill, and moved that it be read this
day three months.
The Archbishop of CANTERBURY said the bill only
legalised existing practices.
Lord PORTMAN thought if the bill did act upon any
other than chartered schools there could be no objection
to it.
The LORD CHANCELLOR thought there was come
danger in the bill, and therefore he should be compelled to
vote against the second reading if it was pressed to a divi-
sion.
The Estop of LONDON advised the postponement of
the bill.
