THE DANISH QUESTION.

Me. B. OSBORNE gave notice that on Tuesday, the
19th April, he should draw the attention of the house
to the effects of our foreign policy in Denmark and the
duchies of Schleswig-Holstein, and should move that it
is both unjust and inexpedient to insist upon the provisions
of the Treaty of London of 1861 so far as they relate to the
order of succession in the duchies, as a basis for the settle-
ment of the Dano•German conflict.
SALE OF INTOXICATING LIQUORS.

Mr. SOAMES gave notice that on Friday, the 22d of
April, he should move for leave to bring in a bill for the re-
striction of the sale of intoxicating liquors on Sunday.
THE GOVERNNIENT ANNUITIES BILL.
In reply to Sir M. FARQUHAR,
Mr. M. GIBSON stated that the Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer was quite willing to refer the Government Annui-
ties Bill to a select committee, provided the reference was
on the clauses, and not on the whole subject, as proposed
by the hon. baronet.
Mr. HUNT asked if the reference would include the
financial alterations on which the bill was based ?
Mr. M. GIBSON was understood to say that it should
be on the bill as it stood,
THE•IONIAN ISLANDS. _

- _
On the the motion for going into committee of supply,
Mr. GREGORY (in a house consisting of 13 members)
called attention to the demolition of the fortifications of
Corfu and the neutralisation of the lonian Islands, and
moved an address for papers.

Captain JERVIS seconded the motion.
Mr. SMOLLETT protested against the proceedings
which the Government had taken in reference to the cession
of the lonian Islands, and said that one of the worst things
they could have done was to allow a young and inexpe•
rienced prince, who, according to his owu admission, was
incapable of government, to be placed at the head of such a
turbulent, intriguing, and licentious population.
Mr. LAYARD said the surrender of the islands had been
made in perfect good faith and loyalty on the part of her
Majesty's Government. He entered at considerable length
into the circumstances which had led to the cession, and
justified the destruction of the fortifications as an act
of policy necessary to the maintenance of our posi-
tion in the Mediterranean. He expressed a hope that
in the course of a very short time the people of
Greece would discontinue the system of agitation in which
they had so long indulged, and adopt a policy more calcu-
lated to promote their real interests. The King of Greece
and his Ministers ware perfectly aware from the first that
the destruction of the fortresses was intended to be effected
under the treaty for the surrender of the islands. He had
no objection to give the papers.
Captain JERVIS asked whether any steps had been
taken to protect the interests of British subjects who had
held office in the islands, and whose appointments neces-
sarily ceased with the cession.
Mr. C. FORTESCUE said that the pensions already
earned would be punctually paid by the Greek Government
to the English Consul at Corfu, and the compensations for
loss of office to our Minister at Athens.
Mr. S. FITZGERALD said this was another instance
in which the Government had committed a mistake in
their foreign policy. They had meddled unnecessarily,
and had done no good to those in whuse behalf they had
interfered.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER justified
the policy of the Government, and contended that the ces-
sion of the lonian Islands was a step calculated to promote
the interests not only of the inhabitants of those islands but
of the whole kingdom of Greece.
After some observations from Lord J. Manners, Mr.
Childers, Mr. Cave, and Mr. D Griffith, the motion wasrs,
withdrawn, and the house went into committe pro forma.
The other business was then disposed of, and the house
adjourned.
