POLAND,

Lord STRATHEDEN then moved that, in the opinion
of this house, the correspondence of her Majesty's Govern-
ment with the Cabinet of Saint Petersburg on the Polish
question has not as yet reached a satisfactory conclusion,
and that the Czar, having failed to comply with the condi-
tions upon which, according to the Treaty of Vienna, he
acquired his sovereignty in Poland, it was no longer bind-
ing upon the English Government to acknowledge it.
Earl RUSSELL opposed the motion on the ground that
instead of increasing it would tend to impair the authority
of the house. The conditions of the Treaty of Vienna
would not satisfy the Polish insurgents, who declared that
they would rest contented with nothing short of the resto-
ration of their country to the position which it formerly
held as a kingdom. The noble earl vindicated the course
pursued by Ministers on the Polish question, and said they
would have been justly blameworthy if they had involved
this country in a war with Russia on behalf of Poland, At
the same time he was strongly of opinion that if, at a
period of tranquillity, the Emperor of Russia disregarded
the conditions of the Treaty of Vienna, he could not con-
tinue to claim the right of sovereignty over Poland.
Earl GREY concurred with Lord Stratheden in think-
ing that the correspondence had come to an unsatistaeory
conclusion, and uttered an expression of regret that the
Foreign Secretary, if he were not prepared to take up arms
in defence of Poland, should have entered into a corre-
spondence which could lead to no useful result. His in-
terference, in fact, had only encouraged the Poles in a use-
less and hopeless resistance to overwhelming numbers,

The motion was then withdrawn.
The Customs and Inland Revenue Bill was read a second
time, and the Naval and Victualling Stores Bill vias read a
third time and passed.
Other bins were also advanced a stage, and their lord-
ships adjourned.

GRIEVANCES OF INDIAN OFFICERS.

Captain JERVIS asked the Secretary of State for India
when he would lay upon the table of the house the pro-
posed plan for redressing the grievances of the cfncers of
the Indian army.
Sir C. WOOD said there was necessarily delay in making
a report on this subject, as there were several miaute de-
t.ilz to bo carefully considered. However, the moment the
details were ready he would lay a report on the table of the
house.

ARMY PRIZES.

Colonel NORTH asked the Under Secretary of State for
War whether the Royal Commission upon Army Prize had
made its repwrt ; and, if 50, when it would be
placed upon
the table of the house ?
Mr. PEEL said that the report had been received, and
would bo shortly laid on the table,
THE CONFERENCE AND THE ARMISTICE.
Mr. HOP WOOD asked tile Home Secretary whether the
Government would state what course they intended to take
with regard to Denmark before the house adjourned fc r

Whitsuntide.
Sir G. GREY—The question put to me by the hon. gen-
tleman is very similar to that which was put the other day
by the hon. member for North Warwickshire (Mr. Newde-
g ite). I then stated that the Conference was sitting, that
it was hoped the first result would be the establishment of
an armistice, and that the Government would continue, in
concert with other Powers, to take those steps which would
be conducive to that end. I have now the satisfaction to
intorm the house that to day the Conference, have agreed
upon an armistice for a month. (Cheers.)
PUNISHMENT FOR VAGRANCY.

Mr. HUNT drew attention to the case of a poor woman
and her two children, who had been sentenced to three
weeks' imprisonment for having been found sleeping in a
tent. He wisheß to know if the right hon. gentleman, the
Secretary of State for the Home Department, had had his
attention directed to the matter.
Sir G. GREY replied in the aegative, and said he would
direct an inquiry into the subject.
INSPECTORS OF PUBLIC SCHOOLS,

In reply to Sir J. PAKINGTO.N,
Sir G. GREY said the motion on this subject would be
brought on next Thursday.
POLAND.

Sir G. GREY said that if the hon. member (Mr. Hen-
nessy) would postpone his motion relative to Poland, he
guaranteed on the part of Government that an opportunity
would be afforded of bringing it on un the 19th inst.
Mr. HENNESSY consented to postpone his resolutions
respecting Poland until the 19th inst.
THE ARMISTICE.

Mr. D. GRIFFITH, who on rising was received with
loud cheers from both sides of the house, said—l beg leave,
if suitable to the convenience of the Government, to ask
the right hon. baronet whether he can communicate to us
what the terms of the armistice are. (Laughter.)
Sir G. GREY—I am unable to cornmunicite the term

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

WESTMINSTER.
A VERY AGREEABLE StillPßlSE.—Ellen Lay, a very
respectable looking young woman, was placed at the bar
charged with stealing a silk umbrella and pair of stockings.
Mr William Brason, surgeon dentist, 2, 'Winchester-
street, Pimlico, said that the prisoner was sent to him as a
servant from a registry office on Saturday last. She was
engaged to go out of town with prosecutor's wife, and was
to come in day by day until Wednesday:next,when she was
fully to enter into the situation. Prisoner came to the
house on Sunday and left at 10 o'clock at night, and on the
following morning an umbrella and a pair of stockings were
missed. They ware taken from a box in a bedroom belong-
ing to a lady who is staying in prosecutor's house.
Mr Arnold inquired whether the box had been left open.
Witness—No, it had not. It was locked, and prisoner
opened it with one of her own keys which fitted it.
Mr Arnold—Where is the lady P
Witness—She is not here ; she has gone a little way into
the country.
Mr Arnold—When can she attend I'
Witness—She is a person of very nervous temperament
and cannot attend.
Mr Arnold—Of course, you can only state the particulars
of the case from what you have heard, but it is necessary it
should be proved by personal knowledge. If the prisoner
is remanded, the lady must attend, or it will be useless to
remand the accused.
Witness—The girl admitted that she had stolen the
things. I knew that the umbrella was taken out of the
box on Sunday morning by the lady as it was considered it
would be used that day.
Mr Arnold—ln order to support this complaint it is
necessary that the lady should attend ; if she cannot, it is
useless to remand the prisoner.
Witness—l know she cannot.
Mr Arnold—Then the prisoner is discharged.

Central Criminal Court—This Day,

OLD COURT.
(Before the Recorder.)

Henry Powell and William Finch were indicted for steal

ing X 9 15, the monies of John Mantle Chambers, by induc•
ing him to play ond " bet in games of skittles." The
Recorder said the facts would not maintain the indictment
for larceny, and directed an acquittal.
The prisoners were then indicted for the misdemeanour in
obtaining the monies by cheating with intent to defraud.
Mr. Orridge, having orened the case, called the prose-
cutor, who detailed the manner in which he had been
induced to play and bet with the prisoners, who told
him the usual plausible stories. In his cross-examina-
tion by Mr. Ribton, he said he had been paid
back £lO, but the present prosecution was instituted by the
Crown. He could not now particularise the bets and the
games, but it was at skittles. Powell bet that he could
knock the balls down in a certain number of times, and pro-
secutor bet he could not, and at the time he certainly affected
to win. He was told by the police constable to employ a
person named Allen as solicitor to prosecutor, and that the
prosecutions would not cost him anything. George Ed-
wards, City police constable 343, was the constable who
told him to do so.

Mr. Ribton said he was afraid that tho system was too
common, and tho bar had to complain of it, and endeavoured
to put a stop to it as much as they could.
The Recorder said the officers of the Court were taking
measures to stop it. _

George Edwards, police constable 343, proved taking the
prisoners into custody and search them, but nothing ma-
terial was found,

Mrs. Meekhaw, the wife of the landlord of the public-
house, 253, Strand, identified the two prisoners as being in
the, house when the prosecutor was there some time in
February.

Mr Ribton objected, there was not evidence even suffi-
cient to maintain the indictment for a misdemeanour. The
prosecutor was playing and betting, and for anything they
knew it was being done fairly.
The Recorder said he did not think there was a case to
go to the jury. No doubt there was a trick being played.to
get the prosecutor's money.

The Prisoners wore then acquitted.
The Recorder cautioned Powell, as he had been there
before.

The Recorder admonished the police constable Edwards
for introducing any person as an attorney, and refused
costs except to witnesses, and said he should do so in all
oases of the kind.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd.)

His Honour was the only sitting Commissioner, and he
was occupied principally in hearing small debt summonses
of no interest.

IN RE CRACKNELL.

His Honour then proceeded to hear arguments in a
special case as to who was entitled to certain moneys in the
hands of Mr Edwards, the official assignee. The facts
were that on the 6th of November an execution was levied
by the Sheriff on behalf of a person named Patterson,
but the officer retired by arrangement with Crack-
nell, who entered into an undertaking to allow
the bankrupt to re-enter whenever he chose. The
Sheriff retook possession on the 12th November, and Crack-
nell then petitioned this court, and on the 14th the messen-
ger took possession, and the Sheriff went out again. The
property was sold under the bankruptcy, and the proceeds
handed over to the official assignee, but on the Bth Decem-
ber the petition was dismissed. The bankrupt then made
an assignment for the benefit of the creditors, and the ques-
tion now was who was entitled to the proceeds of the sale.
The case was just called on and proceeding.

DEPUTATION TO THE CHANCELLOR OF THE

EXCHEQUER THIS AFTERNOON.

This afternoon, at half-past two, Mr. Gladstone, the
Chancellor of the Exchequer, received a deputation at his
oillce in Downing-street, consisting of half a dozen gentle-
men, who represented the working wen.
After a lengthened inturview, the Chancellor of the Ex.
chequer repudiated the statement of Mr. Sheen at the
meeting on Primrose-hill last Eaturday as totally unworthy
of belief. At the conclusion of his remarks,
Mr. GLADSTONE said that he was always glad
to meet his fellow countrymen under any circum-
stances, and after making a passing remark upon the
allusicn to his Royal highness the Prince of Wales.
he said:—" If you think I have given you all the
information you require I have nothing more to say." Mr
Beales replied "I think you have been very frank and full
in your statement to us." Mr. Gladstone then shook hands
with the members of the deputation, and with great
courtesy bid them farewell. They then left him at twenty
minutes past three.

liiPERIAL PARLIAMENT

HOUSE OF LORDS—Last Evening,
The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack
at five o'clock.
THE DAN 0-GERMAN WAR—A SUSPENSION OF

ARMS AGREED TO,
The Earl of CARNARVON stated that when he gave
notice that he would this evening draw attention to the
Danish Question, he anticipated that the Conference was
practically at an end. He now wadersto d that an armistice
had been agreed upon, the terms of which had been ac•
cepted by Lord Palmerston as satisfactory. If that was
true ha would withdraw his notice for this evening. The
noble earl then asked the noble earl, the Secretary of State
for Foreign Affairs, if he could state what had really been
agreed upon.
Earl RUSSELL said that the Conference to-day had
agreed to the suspension of hostilities between Austria and
Prussia on the one side, and Denmark on the other. Tho
terms upon which this was done was that each party was
to preserve ita OWR positions bath by sea and land, and the
blockade to be raised. The suspension of hostilities was to
continue for one month. The conference would meet again
on Thursday.
The Earl of CARNARVON asked if there was any fur-
ther information ou the subject.
Earl RUSSELL said the question was between the sus-
pension of arms and an armistice, and tile German Powers
were ready to agree to an arrangement by which Jatland
would be evacuated by the Germans, the Isle of Alsen
being evacuated by Denmark; but the Danish Govern-
vernment preferred a simple suspension of aims, each
power retaining its own position.
The Earl of CARNARVON said under such circum-
stances he should of course postpone proceeding with his
motion, but he could not refrain from remarking that Den-
mark by her extraordinary bravery had entitled herself to
the sympathy of Europe. (Loud cries of "hear, hear.")
The Earl of ELLENBOItor Gil asked if the noble earl
could state the exact day upon which the suspension of arms
was to commence.
Earl RUSSELL replied on the 12th of the present
month.

FRANCE.

A council of Ministers was held on Saturday at
the Tuileries, the Emperor presiding.
The fete given in the Garden of the Tuileries to
the youthful members of the Societe du Prince Im-
perial took place yesterday, and was favoured by
delightful weather. A long table, amply provided
with cakes and fruits of all kinds, was laid out along
the Allee de l'Orangerie, and attracted the marked
attention of the juvenile guests. The furnishers of
lemonade and other refreshing drinks were in great
requisition. Punch and Judy theatres, tumblers,
and other amusements commanded numerous
and delighted audiences. The two military
bands added to the gaiety of the scene by
playing lively morceaux. The Emperor, the
Empress, and the Prince Imperial came into the
garden a little after two; her Majesty leading the
young Prince, and the Emperor giving his arm to
the Princess Clotilda. The Imperial party, attended
by the ladies of the palace and the officers on duty,
walked down the middle alley. Their Majesties
had some difficulty in making their way, the dense
crowd saluting them with loud cheers. They re-
turned to the palace at half-past three, but the
Prince remained in the garden for another hour
in the midst of the youthful crowd. The Prince
enjoyed himself evidently with the children, and
when looking at the exhibitions appeared highly
delighted. Tho number of grown-up persons pre-
sent was exceedingly great.
BOURSE, May 9.—The favourable effect which
might have been produced by the arrival of English
Console with a rise of I, has been neutralised by the
announcement of a further advance in the rate of
discount by the Bank of France. The market has,
however, maintained Saturday's prices, Threes, for

TAXATION.

Mr, JAMES WHITE moved fora Select Committee to
inquire into the operation and incidence of our present Fis-
cal System, and to consider and report if any and what
measures could be devised to secure a more equitable ad-
justment of the burden of imperial taxation. He contended
that the repugnance which the people of this country felt
to the operation of the system of taxation was to a convic-
tion that it was unjust. He contended also that the greatest
advent Tea would result from the inquiries of the commit-
tee he proposed, and he dwelt on the admitted dissatisfac-
tion with which the principle on which the inutile tax was
levied, which calls for a remedy, although he did not deny
that this impost would, in all probability, be necessarily
permanent. Having tidy:rt.:el to the pressure of indirect
taxation on the working classes through the operation of
the customs and excise, which he considered was unduly
sevare, he argued that before there was any diminution of
the duty on spirits, the duty should bo entirely remitted on
tea and sugar so largely c,,nstune,i, and so indispensable to
the comforts of the working classes He contrasted the
principle which prevailed on the Continent with that in
this country, and cited statistics to show that in the
former it was the class who could best afford it that were
must heavily taxed.

LAW INTELLIGENCE—This Day,

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd.)

His Honour was the only sitting Commissioner, and he
was occupied principally in hearing small debt summonses
of no interest.

IN RE CRACKNELL.

His Honour then proceeded to hear arguments in a
special case as to who was entitled to certain moneys in the
hands of Mr Edwards, the official assignee. The facts
were that on the 6th of November an execution was levied
by the Sheriff on behalf of a person named Patterson,
but the officer retired by arrangement with Crack-
nell, who entered into an undertaking to allow
the bankrupt to re-enter whenever he chose. The
Sheriff retook possession on the 12th November, and Crack-
nell then petitioned this court, and on the 14th the messen-
ger took possession, and the Sheriff went out again. The
property was sold under the bankruptcy, and the proceeds
