SYDENHAM.

Mr. NEWDEGATE asked the Home Secretary a ques-
tion relative to the Roman Catholic burying-ground at
Sydenham ? Did it meet with his sanction and approval ?
The hon. member enteved into a lengthy statement.
Mr. BRUCE replied that an application was made in
October, 1856, to the Secretary of State for a certificate for
a burial ground at Sydenham for the priests and lay breth•
ren of the Oratory at Brompton. The inspector reported
in favour of the application, and it was granted. Subse-
quently some complaints were made that there was no road
to the burial ground, and that it was not properly inclosed.
There had, it appeared, been but three burials there. The
inspector again reported that being only a private burying
place, no public road was requisite, and it was surrounded
by an oak paling.
Mr. MONSELL stigmatised the conduct of the hon.
member as insulting to the Roman Catholics. His con-
duct was on a piece with that which he had exhibited to-
wards the late Mr. Turnbull, whom he hounded to death.
He spoke advisedly when he said that the anxiety and
misery of mind which that gentleman suffered in conse-
quence of the unjust imputations cast on him by the hon.
member led to his death. In alluding to this subject, he
might, at least, have spared the dead.
Sir G. BOWYER reiterated the opinion of the hon.
member.

Mr.NEWDEGATE withdrew the notice for the adjoUrn-
ment of the house, 'which had enabled him to enter upon
his statement.

The SPRAYEEt blamed the hon. member for the line of
policy he had adopted, He should have brought the sub-
ject forward by a regular notice. (Hear, hear.)
ROAD AT NIGHT THROUGH HYDE-PARL
Lord R. CECIL asked the First Commissioner of Works
if ho had given attention to a petition from the inhabitants
of Bayswater and Kensington?
Mr. 00WPER replied in the affirmative, and that it was
quite impossible to grant its prayer to keep open a road up
to one o'clock in the morning, because the e park. would thus
be thrown open to the public, and as it consisted of 300
acres, it could not be properly watched, and certainly not
lighted.

The Fatal Accident on the Monmouthshire

Railway.

CWMARAY, Saturday.
This protracted inquiry, which has been four times
adjourned, was brought to a close last night. It will be
remembered that an accident of a fearful character occurred
on the Monmouthshire Railway at this place on the 3d inst.,
when an express train ran off the rails, smashed the car-
riages, and killed the driver, Robert M'Ghae, and seriously
injured other persons. rho inquest on M'Ghee was held
before Mr. Brewer, coroner for Monmouthshire, and the
evidence adduced up to yesterday went to show that the
train was proceeding at a rapid pace, and that the line was
not adapted to express speed, the rails being fastened to the
sleepers with wooden pegs or trenails instead of iron ones.
Mr. Harrison, the engineer to the Monmouthshire Rail-
way Company, having stated that the line was in good
re[ air,
Col. Yolland, the Government inspector, was examined.
He said his opinion was that the road was made of fair ma-
terial for the time when it was constructed—l 2 or 14 years
ago--but that it was decidedly not a road suitable for the
express trains of the present day, and he trusted the Mon-
mouthshire Railway Company would take warning by this
accident, and relay their line on the improved principle of
the present day, which the company themselves would find
after all to be the most economical, Wooden transit might
be considered good as long as the wood remained sound, but
the use of iron jang bolts was decidedly better; and it was
almost impossible for an inspector as he passed along the
road to see whether the wooden trenals were rotten or not,
and particularly on a line which was ballasted so heavily
He was of opinion that the train was travelling at a fast
rate, probably 4.5 mil:8 an hour. That was by no means an
unusual speed for an express train. on a proper road con-
structed for express trains, and he did not think the speed
exceeded the time allowed for the journey, which was 15
minutes from Pontypool road to Newport, which was too
little with the road in its present state.
At the close of the inquiry the jury found that the de.
ceased had bees killed by the train accidentally running off
the line, and they added—" We attribute the accident to
the high speed run on a road not originally intended for
fast running, and we urge the company to allow more time
for the express trains from Pontypool-toad to Newport
until the road is reneweri.-

TEA.—The dealings have been of a very limited descrip-
tion. Prices, however, are generally well sustained. The
public sales of Aseam commenced to-day.
SUGAR.—OnIy a moderate business has been reported on
West India, and there is little change of importance to
notice in prices. Business in the refined market has been
confined principally to immediate home requirements.
COFFEE,—For Plantation and Native Ceylon there has
continued to be a fair inquiry at full rates ; other descrip-
tions remain without change in values.
RICE.—The demand has been rather more active, good
and fine descriptions of East India having realised fully
previous quotations.
SALTPETRE.—A rather large business has been trans-
acted, and the tendency of prices has been upwards.
TALLOW.—The advices from St. Petersburg, coupled
with the unsatisfactory state of political affairs in Poland,
has caused considerable agitation in the tallow market, a
large speculative business having been done for forward
delivery. P.Y.C. on the spot is quoted 435. 9d. to 445.,
and last three months' delivery 40s. 6d. per cwt.

A SUPERANNUAThD POST-CEIAISE.—ii was a
post-chaise taken off its axletree and wheels, and
plumped down on the clayey soil among a ragged growth
of vegetables. It was a post-chaise not even set straight
upon the ground, but tilted over as if it had fallen out of a
balloon. It was a post chaise that had been a long time in
those decayed circumstances, and against which scarlet
beans were trained. It was a post-chaise patched and
mended with old tea-trays, or with scraps of iron that
looked like them, and boarded up as to the windows, but
having a knocker on the off-side door. Whether it was
a post-chaise used as tool-house, summer-house, or
dwelling-house, I could not discover, for there was nobody
at home at the post-chaise when I knocked, but it was cer-
tainly used for something, and locked up. In the wonder
of this discovery, I walked round and round the post-chaise
many times, and sat down by the post-chaise, waiting for
further elucidation. None came.—Dickens's 6,41 l ti

is no doubt that the name of his correspondent is
very familiar to Mr. GIDEON ELLE& This latter
gentleman, doubtless, finds it very convenient to
make use of envoys and emissaries, and when their
work is done, or when their mission is over for the
time, he gives them up altogether, and even some-
times denies their collusion with him. So it is
doubtless in this aff Air that has lately engaged so
much attention, and there is every cause to congra-
tulate Mr. LAIRD on the bold stand he has made in
this dilemma. He has no reason to be ashamed or
afraid of the part he has taken, and as an English-
man he stands bound to explain his conduct, and to
testify to the actions of those who are not so inde-
pendent as he is.

POLAND.

A Warsaw letter gives the following, details re-
specting the retirement of the Marquis Wielopohski

and his correspondence with the Czar :—" On the
evening of the 17th June the Marquis received
a despatch in cipher from Count de Bismark ; he
then proceeded to the council, where he had not ap-
peared during the preceding month. When the
meeting, in which certain capital condemnations
had been discussed, was closed, the Marquis rose
and said, ' It is thus that empires are lost !' He was
about to leave the council chamber when Berg
rushed forward and exclaimed, Excellency, I take
that observation as an insult addressed to myself.'
You would be wrong, General, the Marquis
coldly replied, ' for you are not the cnly one
who acts thus!' The generals inclined their heads,
and the Marquis departed ; that was the last time
that he appeared at the council. On the 23d the
propositions of the Powers were communicated to
the Grand Duke by telegraph, and by his Highness
to the Marquis. On the following day the latter
wrote to the Emperor in obedience to the wish ex-
pressed by his Majesty that he should give his views
on the despatches of the Western Powers. He de-
clared that he was happy to find that the Powers
were acting in so amicable and moderate a manner,
and that, as his Majesty's Minister, ne could only
give them his adhesion. On the 27th a tele-
graph despatch from St. Petersburg declared that
the Emperor's council was not of that opinion,
and that the reply adopted would demand certain
modifications in the notes. The next day the Mar-
quis again wrote to the Emperor, concluding his
letter in these words. The propositions of the
Cabinets are so wise and moderate, and the honour
of the Crown has been so scrupulously studied in the
present circumstances, that I can imagine nothing
more practical and more conformable to the real
interests of the empire than the pure and simple
acceptation of them without discussion. In the
opposite case I shall have the regret of considering
myself obliged to separate entirely from a policy
which I can only look upon as hurtful and danger-
ous, and to renounce all hope that my presence can
be useful to the welfare of the country and to the
service of your Imperial Majesty."

THE BASIN AT PORTSMOUTH.

In reply to Mr. CoRRT,
Lord C. PAGET said that, during the recess, It would be
the duty of the Admiralty to prepare a private bill to con-
struct the basin at Portsmouth. The cost would be asked
in the ordinary way in the navy estimates. It was his in-
tention early next session to move the appointment of a select
committee on basins and docks.
RE-MARRIAGE OF DISSENTERS.

Sir M. PE CO asked her Majesty's Government whether
they had heard of the re-marriage of a Mr. and Mrs. Hulin
by the Rev. Horatio Walmeeley, vicar of St. Briavels,
Gloucestershire, after they had been previously married in
a Dissenting chapel, and on which re-marriage the vicar
entered the parties in his register-book as bachelor and
spinster, knowing of the previous marriage; and whether
her Majesty's Government would prosecute the vicar for
making such entries un,'er the statute 7th George IV., sec.
29 ?

Mr. BRUCE did not consider that the conduct of the
vicar rendered him liable to prosecution under the act spe-
cified. Either the first marriage was valid or not. The
offence might be one against good manners and the views
of man, but not against the law.
NAUTICAL SCHOOLS AT GREENWICH.
Sir M. PETO asked the Civil Lord of the Admiralty
whether any decision had yet been come to by the Admi-
ralty with respect to the building for the Nautical School
School at Greenwich; and whether the objects aimed at
could be gained without incurring so large an outlay for
additional buildings as contemplated?
Mr. STANSFELD, in the first place, intimated that
through a mistake in one of the Malta papers, a despatch
from Admiral Codrington at Malta had not been in-
cluded in the correspondence on the table. The Secretary
for the Admiralty had been blamed for not printing the
letter, but the accident was no fault of his. The omission
would be rectified without any further delay. The hon.
gentleman then entered into a lengthened explanation of
the steps taken with respect to the enlargement of these
schools, so as to adapt them to present requirements and the
health of the 800 boys. The cost of the new wing, instead
of costing £25,000, would not Emceed £3,000 or £4,000, and
the alterations in the chapel about £750. The boys
would attend the chapel with all the other inmates of the
college.
THE ORDER OF ST. MICHAEL AND ST.
GEORGE.

Lord E. BRUCE asked whether, in the event of the
withdrawal of protection from the lonian Isles, her Ma-
jesty would continua to confer the order of St. Michael and
St. George on persons she might think proper?
Mr. FORTESCUE replied that her Majesty would cer-
tainly continue, as heretofore, to hold the power of confer-
ring these honours, and it would not therefore be trans-
ferred to the King of Greece with the lonian Islands.

PAROCHIAL ASSESSMENT.

Mr. PUGH asked the President of the Poor-law Board
whether it was the intention of Government to introduce
next session any bill with instructions to the parochial as-
sessment committees, Ike. ?
Mr. VILLIERS was not in a position to state what
course the Government might think proper to adopt in order
to procure a better assessment. Early next session, how•
ever, he should be happy to intimate their intentions.

GREECE.

A Copenhagen letter lately mentioned that the
young king of Greece made his departure for
Athens to depend on a mixed occupation of that
capital by English and French troops. The Cour-
tier du Dimanche declares itself authorised to con-
tradict that report in the most formal manner.
That journal also states that George I, will proceed
to his kingdom between the Ist and 15th Sept.
Another Copenhagen letter contains the follow-
ing A rather curious accident which occurred
a few days back at the Hamburg International Ex-
hibition is now forming the subject of conversation
here. The young King George I. being there,
found himself, while in one of the compartments of
the division where the newly-invented agricultural
machines were exhibited, close to King Otho.
Everyone remarked the embarrassment with which
the newly-erected Sovereign was seized on being
unexpectedly placed in presence of the monarch he
is about to succeed."

MITTEE ROOMS.

The Earl of LONGFORD called attention to the defec-
tive state of the ventilation of the house and the committee
rooms, and expressed a hope that attention would be paid
to the matter before next session.
TELEGRAPHS BILL.

Lord STANLEY of ALDERLEY said the Commons
had agreed to all the amendments except the word " re-
spectively," and he hoped their lordships would not insist
upon that.
The house resolved not to insist on their amendments.
Their lordships adjourned at twenty minutes past six
o'clock.

HOUSE OF COMMONS—Last Evening.
Ttie SPEAKER took the chair at four o'clock.
RETURNS.
A large number of unopposed returns were ordered.
THE MHOW COURT-MARTIAL.
Mr. CONINGHAM intimated that owing to the late
period of the session, and the recent date the papers were
laid on the table, he should not proceed with his motion on
this subject ; but he should take the earliest opportunity
next session of bringing it forward.

TROOPS IN INDIA.
The Horr. GENTLEMAN also intimated that early next
session he should call the attention of the house to the
anomalous position of the Commander-in-Chief with respect
'to the Indian army, and whether it was not expedient that
that army should be placed in the same favourable position,
with regard to liberty and treatment, as that at home.
London, England, 1863-07-28

SUEZ CANAL.

Mr. D. GRIFFITH asked the First Lord of the Trea-
sury whether there was any truth whatever in the assertion
made by M. Lesseps, in his report to the shareholders of
the Suez Canal, in which, for the purpose of palliating or
defending the employment of forced labour on that work,
he undertakes to say, "The Company of the English
steamers, in their establishment at Suez, is provided oy the
Egyptian Government with the porters and labourers neces-
sary for the embarkation and debarkation of their cargoes,
by means of forced labour (travail obligatoire) ?
Lord PALMERSION replied that ho could not be
answerable for the opinions of M. Lesseps. (Laughter.)
The Government did not know whether what was stated
was a fact or not. No doubt when the firman of the Sultan,
advisedly Enforced, was put into operation, all the labourers
would have the benefit of the concession.
POLAND.
In reply to a question from Mr. HENNESSY,
Lord PALM ERSTON said it would be unadvigable to
adopt the suggestion of the hon. and learned member that
the Government should withdraw the Queen's Ambassador
at St. Petersburg, or refuse to recognise the dominion of
Russia in Poland.

NENAGH ASSIZES—LIME RI CK,
Mr. BLAKE repeated his question with respect to the
man Philip Hayes, tried at the live Nenagh Assizes.
Mr. MONSELL asked if the Queen's proclamation, now
that Limerick was peaceable, would be withdrawn?
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL for IRELAND replied
that the matter was under the consideration of the Execu-
tive Government. In the case of Limerick, no doubt a
favourable result would follow its now peaceable condition.
THE PROROGATION.
Precisely at one minute after 3 o'clock, Sir AUGUSTUS
CLIFFORD, Gentleman Usher of the Black Rod, advanced
to the table and summoned the Speaker and the house to
hear the Royal Commissioner read her Majesty's Speech
on the prorogation of Parliament.
The Speaker, accompanied by the whole of the members,
immediately left the house and repaired to the Route of
Lords. _ _

At a quarter to 4 the Speaker returned, and, calling the
members round the table, took up his position at the place
of the Chief Clerk, and read the Speech, written on paper
edged with black.
The right hon. gentleman then shook hands with the 40
or 50 members present and then retired.
Thus ended the session of 1863.
London, England, 1863-07-28

FRANCE.

The Emperor is expected at the Camp of Chalons
about the 12ila August, where he will remain for
several days, to be present at manoeuvres of the
troops and hold a general review.
Prince Napoleon Charles Bonaparte two days
back visited the experimental silk-growing estab-
lishment organised by M. Guerin-MOneville on the
Imperial Farm of V:ncennes, near Joinville-le-
Pont. The Prince went over the plantations of
oaks and mulberry-trees, and especially noticed the
fine cocoons of the oak silkworm, and the different
stages from the eggs to the worms placed in the
hedges, and making their cocoons in the open air.
Oa leaving his highness congratulated M. Guerin-
Meneville on the success of his eAperiments, which
promise most advantageous results for the silk in-
dustry.

M. Kern, Envoy Extraordinary and Minister
Plenipotentiary of the Helvetic Confederation, left
Paris last evening for Switzerland. It has already
been stated that the conferences on the Franco-
Swiss Treaty cf Commerce are suspended till
October.

Rear-Admiral Daboville has been appointed to
the command.in-chief of the naval division in the
Levant, in place of Rear-Admiral Touchard, whose
term has expired.

The Marquis de Gallifet, on his return from
Vichy last week, proceeded at once to St. Cloud to
deliver to the Prince Imperial the small cannon
offered to the French army in Mexico. This piece
of miniature artillery is of American manufacture,
having been presentee by a President of the United
States to the Mexican Government. The young
Prince appeared delighted with the present, and
had it placed, with the thirty rounds of ammunition
which accompanied it, under cover in the Palace -
garden. Tho wounded officer was received by the
Empress with great distinction.
