SUEZ CANAL.

Mr. D. GRIFFITH asked the First Lord of the Trea-
sury whether there was any truth whatever in the asserticn
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 by 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 PALMERS ION replied that he could not be
answerable for the opinions of M. Lesseps. (Laughter,)
The Government did not know whether what was state(
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. HENxEssY,
Lord PALM ERSTON said it would be unadvi•able 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.

POLAND.

A Warsaw letter gives the following details re-
specting the retirement of the Marquis ►l'ielopo:aki

and his correspondence with the Czar :—" On the
evening of the 17th June the Marquis received
a despatch in cipLer from Count de Bismatk he
then proceeded to the council, where he had not ap
peered 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 rnly 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, es 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."

pared to defend it. It was ascertained that the sum of 30s.
per head was sufficient to provide education for the class for
which they were providing. It was therefore clear that
where endowments reached 58s for each child in the school
the public money would not be well applied if it were given
in addition. The Council had fixed 58s as the maximum,
and it was much in advance of what was laid down as a
sufficient sum for the purposes of education. The noble
duke then defended the regulations regarding inspectors.
The great object and the great difficulty which the Council
had before them was to regulate the outlay of the public
money to the best advantage. (Hear, hear.) That was what
they wished to do, and they hoped they had succeeded.
Lord REDESDALE, in reply, said the effect of the al-
teration would be to destroy the efficacy of a number of
schools. He hoped the matter would be fully considered in
the next sessiun of Parliament, and that a different view
would be taken of the suhjeet,
After a few words from the Earl of DONOUGHMORE and
Earl FORTESCUE, the matter dropped,

SYDENHAM.

Mt. NEWDEGATE asked the Home Secretary a ques-
tion relative to the Roman Catholic burying-ground at
Sydenham P Did it meet with his sanction and approval ?
The hon. member entered 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 fur the priests and lay broth.
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. BO WYER 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-.
Tile SPEAKER blamed the hon. member for the line of
policy ho had adopted, He should have brought the sub-
ject forward by a regular notice. (Hear, hear.)
ROAD AT NIGHT THROUGH HYDE-PARK.
Lord R. CECIL asked the First Commissioner of Works
if he had given attention to a petition from the inhabitants
of Bayswater and Kensington ?
Mr. COWPER replied in the affirmative, and that it. was

quite impossible to grant its prayer to keep p
to one o'clock in the morning, because the poarkenwaourld thusup

acres, it could not be properly watched, and certainly not
lighted.

NENAGH ASSIZES.

Mr. BLAKE called the attention of the Secretary for
Ireland to a statement in the newspapers, saying that a
man who had been charged with firing at Mr. Gore Jones
had been induced, though innocent, by food and promises
of money by the authorities, to sign a false statement that
he was one of the guilty parties.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL for IRELAND com-
plained that the question had been put without notice to
those who knew nothing about the matter. He had, how-
, ever, received a letter stating that the jury could not agree
with respect to one man.
LORDS' AMENDMENTS.
The Lords' amendments to the following bills were
Companies Clauses, Railway
agreed to : —Telegraphs,
Clauses, and Charitable Uses.
EXHIBITIOg MEDALS BILL.
Mr. AYRTON moved that this bill be read a third time
this day week. He stated his objections to the bill
at great length, and urged the lateness of the session, and
their recent acquaintance with the bill, as a reason for not
agreeing to its provisions.
The LORD MAYOR strongly supported the bill.
Air. BUTT opposed the measure, because it would intro-

duce an entirely new and dangerous principle into the
criminal law. _

NO. • 44.•••••••• .••• •• -
COL FRENCH likewise opposed the bill, as also did Mr.
J. POWELL, who had hoped that it might be amended in
committee.
The house divided, when there appeared—

The bill was then read a third time and passed. _ _

Lord R. CECIL gave notice that, early next session, he
should propose a standing order to prevent the surreptitious
passing of bills in this way. (Hear, hear.)
The SPEAKER explained that the bill was not passed in
any irregular way. .

Lord R. CECIL said the bill was only circulated two
hours before those proceedings. (Hear, hear.)

On the motion of Sir G. BOWYER, the order for the second

QUEEN MARY.

Mary was small of stature, with beautiful hands and
feet. Her person was well made but too thin, and her car-
riage, though majestic, was exceedingly stiff, and lacked
the grace which ease alone can impart. In her younger
days she had been accounted good-looking, but she could
scarcely be considered so now. Her eyes were large and
grey, and her glances keen and steady. Her face was
round, her tresses inclining to red, if they did not even ac-
tually attain that hue, and the nose too flat and large.
Her lips, too, were thin and compressed. Altogether,
there was a hardness and severity about her face
that destroyed" its pleasing character, while prema-
ture wrinkles about the eyes and brow gave her age.
If Mary did not inherit the beauty either of her father or
mother, she had many of the qualities by which hith were
characterised. She had the courage, firmness, and obsti-
nacy of Henry VIII., and she had all the virues belonging
to the unfortunate Katherine of Arragon. Her conduct,
under the trials to which she was exposed, was most exem•
plary, and even her enemies could find no fault with it.
Firmly attached to the principles of the Catholic religion,
in which she had been brought up, she never wavered for a
moment in her adherence to her faith, but would have suf-
fered martyrdom rather than renounce it. When commanded
by the council under Edward VI. to desist from the per-
formance (Amass, she still continued to celebrate it in private.
Mary spoke well in public, and possessed a voice so sonorous
that she could be distinctly heard by a large assemblage.
Her stirring address to the citizens at Guildhall gave the
coup de grace to Wyat's formidable rebellion.
She arose at daybreak, performed her religious duties, heard
mass, and thenceforward devoted herself to public business,
being easy of access to all who desired to approach her.
Bigoted Mary was intolerant and severe towards those who
differed with her on points of faith; but she had many re-
deeming qualities, which should have saved her from the
obloquy to which she has been subjected.
And here is a lifelike sketch of

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. The wounded officer was received by the
Empress with great distinction.

singular contrast to an uncharitable age is repre-
sented to us in—

CARDINAL POLE.

No man of bis time possessed higher and nobler qthilitles
than the illustrious Reginald Polo. Sanctity of manners,
erudition, wisdom, eloquence, combined to render him one
of the most shining lights of the age. Devout without
bigotry, tolerant, strictly conscientious, and pare-minded,
he was utterly free from debasing passions. Guile and
hypocrisy formed no part of his character. Self-denying,
abstinent, and laborious, he was ever generous and
charitable.

Leaving the gallery of portraits, from which wt
might select many brilliant specimens, we will
transcribe the very animated scene which occurs on
Philip's first arrival in the English waters, when
the high national spirit of the English, shrinking
from "dependence upon foreigners," on the one
hand, and the haughty pride of the imperious
Spaniards on the other, were dangerously mani
Tested.

" By this time the fleet had passed the Solent Sea and was
off Cowes The extreme beauty of the Isle of Wight, as
seen from this point, might have excited t-hilip's admira -
tion, had not his attention been drawn to the ttnglish and
Flemish fleets, which could now be seen advancing to meet
him. On came the two armaments, proudly and defiantly,
as if about to give him battle, or oppose his progress. When
they got within a mile of the Prince, the English ships were
ordered to heave to, and soon became stationary; but the
Flemish squadron continued to advance until it met the
Spaniares, when it wore round and came on with them.

"As yet, no salute had been fired by the Lord High
Admiral.

" Ido not understand such matters,' said the Mike of
Alva, approaching the Prince; but it seems to me that the
English Admiral gives your highness but a cold reception.'
"Philip made no reply, but, after a moment, observed,
' Those are fine ships.'
" They are so,' replied Alva ; but their commander
should be taught to show due respect to his sovereign.'
" Just then an incident occurred which caused the ut-
most astonishment, not unmixed with indignation, through-
out the Spanish fleet. A shot was fited by the Lord High
Admiral across the bows of the Spanish ship nearer. him.
Philip was made instantly aware of the occurrence, and for
a moment exhibited unwonted emotion. His pale cheek
flushed, and ho sprang from his seat, seeming abo t to give
an angry order, but he presently became calmer. Not so
the grandees around him. They were furious; and the
Duke of Alva counselled the Prince immediately to fire upon
the insolent offender.

" ' I am as eager to resent the affront as the Duke,' said
Count D'Egmont; ' but first let an explanation be de-
manded.'

TEA.—The dealings have been of a very limited descrip-
tion. Prices, however, are generally well sustained. The
public sales of Assam 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.
IticE.--The demand has b'en 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. 91. to 445.9
and last three months' delivery 40s. 6d. per cwt.

THE lONIAN ISLANDS.

Mr. D. GRIFFITH asked the First Lord of the Trea-
sury what would be the nature of the guarantee to be
entered into to prevent the future acquisition of the lonian
Islands by any other power than Greece; and which of the
European powers would be the parties by whom that gua-
rantee would be executed

Lord PALMERSTON replied that no step could be taken
in the direorion indicated without the consent of the powers
that were parties to the original protectorate by Great
Britain.

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-
rier 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."

The HON. GENTLEMAN also intimated that early next

Prince Napoleon Charles Bonaparte two days
back visited the experimental silk-growing estab-
lishment organised by M. Guerin-Meneville on the
Imperial Farm of Vincennes, near Joinville-le-
Pont. The Prince went over the plantations of

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.

M ilie onthe success his eAperiments, which

which accompanied it, under cover in the Palace -
