THE CASE OF PATRICK BOURKE.

Lord J. BROWNE asked the President of the Poor
Law Board, whether, in the promised inquiry into the
circumstances attending the removal of Patrick Bourke
from Leeds to Westport, he had taken any steps to secure
the attendance of the representatives of the Irish Poor Law
Commissioners ?

Mr. C. P. VILLIERS replied that he had only to-day
received the explanation of the authorities. They denied
the statements alleged against them, and stated they were
ready to meet the fullest investigation into the subject.
He should take care that due notice of the day for holding
the investigation was transmitted to the noble lord and
others interested in the matter.

SMALL MADE PARCELS TO HONG KONG.
Colonel SYKES asked the Secretary to the Treasury on
what grounds British manufacturers and others were pro-
hibited from transmitting to India and Hong Kong speci-
mens of textile fabrics of British manufacture under the
book post restrictions, as they were permitted to transmit
them to France and elsewhere ?

Mr. F. PEEL replied that, with the single exception of
France, the principle adverted to did not prevail. That
arrangement was made in 1861. The Post-office did not
carry parcels containing specimens of textile fabrics or trade
parcels elsewhere to other countries, which he attributed to
there being considerable difficulties in the way.
REGISTRATION OF ASSURANCES (IRELAND).
Sir E. GROGAN asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland
if he intended to introduce any bill for the registration of
assut ancee during the present session?

Sir R. PEEL replied that the Government had prepared
a bill, and he purposed immediately introducing it.
THE LICENSING LAWS.

11.1 r. LAWSON asked the Secretary of State for the Home
Department whether, the house having rejected the Liver-
pool Licensing Bill, he was prepared to introduce a general
measure for amending the licensing laws?
Sir G. GREY replied that the Government experienced
some difficulty in introducing a general measure, owing to
the rejection of the Liverpool bill. He could give no posi-
tive assurancl as to the period when the Government
would be able to introduce a general measure.

ITALY.

Mr.W. E. FORSTER—That to•morrow he should ask
the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether
our Foreign Office had in its possession a copy of the re-
cent commercial treaty between France and Italy, now
awaiting ratification, and also of the new Italian tariff, and
if so, whether he would lay copies before the house ; also
whether he was aware that several days ago a copy of those
documents were laid on the tables of the Italian Chambers.

ILLUSTRATIONS OF THE BEAUTIES
OF

TROPICAL SCENERY,
AND
SKETCHES OF OBJECTS OF INTEREST,
With Notes, Historical and Explanatory.

By the Author of " The Nuptials of Barcelona."
"This is a volume of word pictures, in whit'.► the author
gives several graceful poetic descriptions of the scenery in
the tropics, and of various objects interesting to himself and
to a large portion of the public generally. The natural
splendour of the islands of the Western Archipelago, and the
richness of their productions, certainly afford abundant
sources of inspiration to the poet ; and we very fairly con-
gratulate the author upon the successful manner in which he
has treated the various subjects that he has selected for the
outpourings of his graceful muse." —Observer.
"He has happily combined poetical sentiment with much
interesting, historical, and general information."—Weekly
Times.

Liverpool Cotton Market---. This Day.

(REUTER'S TEED:Aux.)
LIVERPOOL, Feb. 27.
Sales of the week 24,190 bales, including 2,860
on speculation, and 6,880 for export. Quotations
of fair Orleans 251 ; Uplands, 231 ; Mobile, 241 ;
Estimated Middling Orleans, 211; Upland, 211 ;
Mobile, 21. Imports of the waek 18,217 bales. _ .

Sales, to-day, probably abou; 3,000 bales. Market
dull.

The Price of Gold.

The quotation of gold at Paris is (bout per mille pm., and
the short exchange on London is '.5.20 per £1 sterling. On
comparing these rates with the Eaglish Mint price of £3
17s. 104 d. per ounce for standard golf,
it appears that gold is
slightly dearer in London than in ?aria.
By advices from Hamburg the price of gold is 4221 per mark,
and the short exchange on Londol is 13.51 per £1 sterling.
Standard gold at the English Mint
price is, therefore, about
8 -10ths per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburg
' The course of exchange at New Y)rk on London for bills at
60 days' sight is about 170 per celt., and the premium on
gold is 54 percent. At these rules there is a profit on
I the importation of gold from the Hafted States.

PROGRESS OF CIVILISATION IN CHINA.—The
Moniteur publishes a recent decree of the Emperor

General Tienn, who was concermd in the murder of the
Abbe Neel, has behaved with cruelty towards the Chris-
tians, and that therefore he ouglt to be dismissed the ser-
i vice, lest he should again commit similar acts. The decree
sanctions 11iN dismissal for the mous aboYQ urgod,

GENERAL MEETING-THIS DAY,

The ordinary general meeting of the proprietors of this
company was held to-day at the London Tavern; W.
Barber, Esq., in the chair.
The report having been taken as read,
The CHAIRMAN said it would be recollected that at the
last meeting it had been decided that the ship should be
brought home as speedily as possible; that had been done,
and the vessel had been placed on the gridiron in the Mer-
sey. Captain Paton was present, and would be happy to
answer any questions that might be submitted to
him. The engineer had made another report,
since that which had already been published, which stated
that the painting on the sicbs and bottom was in good con-
dition. It also had been ascertained positively that the in-
juries were confined to the outer skin, and consisted of
small cracks in some of the plates, the openings in the
centre of which wer e not more than two or threeinches. The
directors had thought it advisable to advertise the next
sailing of the vessel. (Hear, hear,) They had decided
that she should leave Liverpool on the 4th of April, New
York on the 25th of April, Liverpool on the 19th of May,
and New York on the 9th of June, The directors calculated
that the cost for repairs to the vessel at Liverpool would
not exceed £2,000. It was clearly shown that the
earnings of,the ship when the accident occurred were in-
creasing, and therefore the accident was much to be regretted.
The balance sheet showed that of the amount authorised to
be raised by debentures, on the 28th November last, the
sum of £55,722 10s. had been subscribed, and by which the
then existing second mortgage had been absorbed, leaving
£9,277 10s. still to be raised, to complete the loan to
£65,000, with which it was proposed to incorporate, on the
31st May next, the present first mortgage of £35,000;
the loan of £lOO,OOO thereby created will then become a
first and only charge on the ship. The direectors again
appealed to those proprietors who had not yet contributed,
to come forward at once and, by subscribing their quota,
place the cmpany in a position by which their property
might be restored to at least its original value. The in-
vestment was now one of a first-class description, and if the
proprietors did not avail themselves of it the directors felt
that it would become their duty to obtain the money, which
they felt they would have no difficulty in getting.
Mr. Goocx seconded the motion for the adoption of the
report, which, on being put to the meeting, was carried
unanimously.

SMALL MADE PARCELS TO HONG KONG.

colonel SYKES asked the Secretary to the Treasury on
what grounds British manufacturers and others were pro-
hibited from transmitting to India and Hong Kong speci-
mens of textile fabrics of British manufacture under the
book post restrictions, as they were permitted to transmit
them to France and elsewhere ?

Mr. F. PEEL replied that; with the single exception of
France, the principle adverted to did not prevail. That
arrangement was made in 1561. The Post-office did not
carry parcels containing specimens of textile fabrics or trade
parcels elsewhere to other countries, which he attributed to
there being considerable difficulties in the way.
REGISTRATION OF ASSURANCES (IRELAND).
Sir E. GROGAN asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland
if he intended to introduce any bill for the registration of
assurances during the present session?

Sir R. PEEL replied that the Government had prepared
a bill, and he purposed immediately introducing it.

THE LICENSING LAWS.

Mr. LAWSON asked the Secretary of State for the Home
Department whether, the house having rejected the Liver-
pool Licensing Bill, he was prepared to introduce a general
measure for amending the licensing lima P
Sir G. GREY replied that the Government experienced
some difficulty in introducing a general measure, owing to
the rejection of the Liverpool bill. He could give no posi-
tive assurance as to the period when the Government
would be able to introduce a general measure.

LAUNCH OF THE WOLVERINE.

Another important addition to the navy was made
to-day at Woolwich dockyard, by the launch of
the screw steam-corvette Wolverine, of 21 guns,
and 1,700 tons burthen. A booth was erected
near the bow of the vessel, and every accommoda-
tion made for visitors, who were admitted to
the dockyard without restriction after one o'clock.
The launch took place precisely at two o'clock,
under the direction of Mr. Turner, master ship-
wright at Woolwich, and the ceremony of christen-
ing the vessel was performed by Miss Turner, the
eldest daughter of that officer.

The Wolverine was laid down at this yard in
April, 1859, and when in a forward state her com-
pletion was suspended, in accordance with the Ad-
miralty order to discontinue the building of timber
vessels, but on a recent visit and inspection, their
lordships directed that the work should be recom-
menced, and the ship got ready for commission.
She is of the same class and size as the ill-fated
Orpheus, and has been constructed, with many
improvements, under the superintendence of Mr.
Turner, master shipwright, who is at present direct-
ing the completion of the iron-clad man-of-war
frigate Caledonia. She is in every respect a fine
specimen of modern naval architecture, and well
calculated for speed. The following are her exact
dimensions :

Ft. In
Length between the perpendiculars 225 0
Do. for tonnage
Breadth extreme 4O 8

Do. moulded 39 8
Depth in hold 24 2
Burthen in tons (old measurement), 1,700 46-94

Immediately after the launch the Wolverine was
removed into dock to be fitted with her screw ma-
chinery, which has been manufactured by Messrs.
Mandalay, Soo, and Field.

EXPLOSIVE COMPOUND IN A LETTER. —On
Wednesday afternoon, while Mrs. Manley, wife of
the postmaster at Warminster, Wilts, was assisting her
husband in stampiag the letters, one of them exploded with
considelablo force. When Mr. Manley hastened to see
what was the matter, he found that his wife had been almost
stunned, the stamp forced out of her hand, and there was
a sulphurous smoke in the apartment. Upon examination
it appeared that one of the letters contained some detonating
composition. Though Mrs. Manley was more frightened
than hurt, the facts were made known to the Postmaster-
General, to whom the name of the sender of the letter was
communicated.

TWO PERSONS FOUND IN THE RlTER,—Yester-
day, Mr. J. Humphreys, the coroner for Middlesex,
received information respecting the discovery of two male
persons unknown, The first was a man about 30; light
brown hair and whiskers, He was dressed iu fustian trousers
and Guernsey shirt, having the appearance of a shore-raker.
The only article found upon him was a clasp knife. The
body was picked up at the entrance of the Regent's Canal
Dock, Limehouse, and was conveyed to the dead-house.—
Another body was found off Stone Stairs, Lower Shadwell,
and the deceased, who was respectably dressed, was removed
to the vault at Shad well Church. Inquests will be held.
ATTEMPTED CHILD itiUBDEII AND SUICIDE IN
MA NCIIESTER,—At the Police-court yesterday
morning, Emma Rothwell, the wife of a warehouseman
living in Cain-street, was charged with attempting to mur-
der two of her cnildren and to destroy herself. The prisoner
had been for some time in a desponding condition, and yes-
terday morning about. 7,30, a neighbour hearing screams
entered her hcuse and found a child two years old with its
throat severely cut, and another slightly wounded. The
prisoner was only slightly cut about the ntok, She was
remlncled till Monday.

CHARGE OF WIFE BEATING.—A man named Hardy
was brought up on a warrant by Knowland, ;the warrant
officer, charged before Mr. Selfe with having assaulted his
wife, Sarah Hardy. _ _ _

The complainant stated ou the Ist of August, in the
afternoon, she was at home when her husband came into
the room where she was. He was not sober, and without
saying a word seized hold of her throat. He grasped it
violently and swore that he would do for her. She screamed
loudly, and made her escape out of the house. He soon
after left her, when she returned home.
Mr. Seife—When did you see him again?

Complainant—This morning (Saturday) complainant
was awoke up by his knocking at the door. She imme-
diately got up and gave information to the warrant officials.
He (prisoner) was not sober.
Rowland observed that the prisoner only took the pledge
a few weeks ago.

Mr. Selfe—Then there is no hope for him. (Laughter.)
Rowland stated that he was called about four o'clock
that morning by the complainant to take the prisoner into
custody. Re went to 25, Regent-street, and found him
there. He then conveyed him to the station-house.
The prisoner was held to bail in two sureties of £5 each
to keep the peace for two months.
