THE LEICESTER MAIL.

Mr. FREWEN moved that the Postmaster-General be
requested to order that the day mail between London and
Leicester should be conveyed by way of Peterborough,
Stamford, and Melton Mowbray, until the line of railway
between Leicester and Rugby (which has been stopped
in conseoquence of the injury done to it, caused by the
late heavy rains) be re-opened.
The SPEAKER said the House had no power to in-
terfere with the Postmaster-General in the manner pro-
posed.
Mr. FREWEN said he then would amend his motion
so as to, make it declare that it was the opinion of the
House that the mail ought to be carried by the route
specified.
_

- Mr. HAMILTON, however, resisted the motion, and
,t was ultimately withdrawn.

INDIAN TERRITORIES.
Mr. HERRIES moved that the Select Committee on
Indian Territories do consist of 31 members, viz. :—Mr.
Herrias, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Lord John
Russell, Mr. Baring, Sir Charles Wood, Mr. Baillie, Mr.
Gladstone, Mr. Newdegate, Mr. Johnston, Sir James
Grabam, Mr. Alderman Thompson, Sir Wm. Moles-
worth, Sir R. Inglis, Viscount Jocelyn, Mr. Cobden,
Mr. Hardinge, Mr. Milner Gibson, Mr. Mangles,
Sir James Hogg, Mr. Hume, Mr. Bankes, Mr. Vernon
Smith, Mr. Robert Hildyard, Mr. J. Nelson, Mr.
Spooner, Mr. Keogh, Mr. Macaulay, Lord Stanley, Mr.
Robert Clive, Mr. Edward Allice, Viscount Palmer-
ston.

After a brief discussion, in which Sir W. Willoughby,
Mr. Macgregor, and Mr. Hume took part, the motion
was agreed to.

TILE LATE DUKE.
Mr. HUME -wished to know if an estimate of the ex-
pense which would be incurred at the funeral of the late
Duke of Wellington could not be laid before the House
at once. They had a precedent for doing so in the case
of Pitt. (Hear, hear.)
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he
had forgotten the hint thrown out the other night on
this subjact by the Hon. Gentleman whip asked the ques-
tion, but the fact was, the pressure of circumstance con-
nected with the solemnities had been so great that it
was quite impossible to prepare an estimate. Every
shilling expended would, however, be accounted for
hereafter. (Hear, hear.)
After a few remarks from Lord D. STUART, the
House adjourned.
