THE CASE OF MARY ANNE WALKLEY.

Mr. BAGWELL--I beg to ask the right hon. gentleman
the Secretary of State for the Home Department if his at-
tention has been called to the inquest on Mary Anne Walk-
ley, a workwoman in the employment of Madame Elise,
described as a court dressmaker, of 170, Regent-street, the
verdict at which stated that the deceased died of apoplexy ?
if the Government have any intention to take measures for
the registration and inspection of workrooms; and if a pro-
secution is to be instituted in this case ?

Sir G. GREY—Sir, I know nothing of this case except
from the reports of the newspapers, and from the find-
ing of the jury. But there is no doubt that if the evi-
dence has been correctly reported, the finding of the jury
was amply justified; and that it is certain the death of
the poor girl was accelerated through long hours of work
and insufficient ventilation. There can be no question
but that it wculd be very desirable, if possible, to esta-
blish by law regulations that might prevent the occurrence
of such evils as this case brought to light. But lam not
prepared to say that it would be possible to establish a ge-
neral system of registration and inspection with respect to
such employments, they being frequently carried on in pri-
vate houses. In regard to the last question of the hon.
member, most probably, in putting it, he has in view the
act by which masters and mistresses are compelled to pro-
vide adequate food, clothing, and lodging for their appren-
tices, and under which they are liable to heavy penalties
should they be convicted of having wilfully omitted to do so,
and thereby causing danger to life. lam not sure, how-
ever, whether that law is applicable to this case, as I doubt
whether the young woman was an apprentice. I think she
was only a hired workwoman.
THE TRIAL OF JESSIE M`LACHLAN.

In reply to Sir M. S. STEWiatT,
Sir G. GREY said he had no doubt that Lord Deas had
been correctly reported to have decided at the M'Lachlan
trial that the prisoner's declarations were to be read; but
no report of the trial, authorised by the judge, had been
received.

Mr. LOWE said the nobltoe tre:o7fibrdsoured under a strange
misapprehonaLn in regard
that sums

it was a great pity that such a thing should be suggested

However, to answer the question more directly, he :out
say that the Committee of Privy Council knew no

the schools but the managers ; and when they had had Paid
the money voted by Parliament to the managers, the corn_
mittee stood discharged of all liability. In all cases, not
excluding the very improbable one supposed by the noble
lord, the pupil teachers would be without a remedy against
the committee of council. With regard to the noble
lord's second question, as to whether the committee had
made any definition of the term "manual labour " with
a view of excluding the children of certain parents from
the schools, the noble lord was quite mistaken in sup-
posing that the committee had made a regulation exclud-
ing the children of such parents. What the committee
had done was to order that the children of such parents
should be entered in a separate column from the others,
in order that the parents should be made to contribute
towards their education. The committee had not sup-
plied any definition of the term "manual labour ;" but no
doubt, when they had had experience of the classes of per-
sonsale who sent their children to the schools, they should be
to frame a more satisfactory definition of the class in-
tended to be described as living by manual labour.
Lord R. CECIL said he had no desire whatever to accuse

THE BONDS STOLEN FROM THE

WARSAW BANK.

BERLIN, JUNE 23.

Private letters of the 21st received here from
Warsaw state that the Revolutionary Town-Captain
issued a proclamation upon the 19th, to the effect
that the !ist of bonds published as having been
stolen from the Bank at Warsaw is incomplete and
false. _ _

MARKETS--This Day.

MARK LANE.

Fresh up to this morning's market a supply of English
wheat was received. The demand ruled far from active
either for red or white produce, nevertheless Monday's im-
provement in the currency was well supported.
The show of samples of foreign wheat was large. All
descriptions were in slow request, yet prices ruled firm. A
very moderate business was done on French account.
Floating cargoes of grain ruled firm at full quotations.
The supply of barley was small, and the value both of
grinding and distilling parcels, notwithstanding that the
demand was somewhat inactive, was fully maintained.
Malt was in slow request on former terms.

The market was well supplied with oats. The best
qualities changed hands slowly, at Monday's quotations ;
otherwise the trade was dull.
Beans ruled firm, at extreme rates, and the value of peas
was well supported.
In English and foreign flour a fair business was trans-
acted, at full quotations.

THIS DAY.

The election of two citizens to fill the office of Sheriffs of
London and Middlesex took place to-day in the Guildhall,
the candidates for the honour being Alderman Dakin and
Messrs. Neissen, Mitchell, and Cave.
At one o'clock the Lord Mayor, Sheriffs, the respective
candidates and their friends entered the hall, at which hour
there was a full attendance of the livery and a considerable
number of "long shore" men.
As Messrs. Neissen and Mitchell had been nominated on
a former occasion, it only became necessary to submit their
names as candidates.

M r. THOMAS REYNOLDS said he had a gentleman. to pro-
pose, who would, he felt assured, well maintain the
privileges of the citizens of London, and at a time when their
privileges had been attempted to be invaded, it was of the
utmost importance they should have sheriffs who will do
all in their power to preserve their rights in all their inte-
grity. He had treat pleasure in proposing Mr. Thomas
Cave.

Mr. GLOVER seconded the nomination of Mr. Cave, and
said if the citizens elected him they would have the right
man in the right place.
The names of the respective candidates were then sub-
mitted to the livery, when
Alderman LAWRENCE declared that the election had
fallen upon Hilliary Neissen. Esq., and Thomas Cave,
Esq. (Cheers.)
The Comtos SERGEANT then submitted the name of
Benjamin Scott for re-election as City Chamberlain.
Mr. JONES said he hoped before they re-elected the City
Chamberlain they would give him a few minutes attention.
lhe speaker then proceeded, amidst continued interruption,
to complain of the way in which the city accounts were
kept, and which he said were 18 months in arrear.
Mr. MEISSEN and Mr. CAVE having returned thanks for
the honour conferred on them, the proceedings terminated.

(managers of embezzlement, but, at .the same time, it was
quite possible they might retain money through misappre-
hension, which ought to be paid over to the pupil i eachers.
Well, then, in the case of such misapprehension, he desired
to know whether the committee of council would give any
further validity to the promises made to the pupil teachers.
Mr. LOWE said the question answered itself. If mana-
gers declined to pay money over after their attention had
been called to the matter, they could not be said to do so
under misapprehension. (Hear, hear.) In such case, all
that the committee of council could do would be to strike a
school off the list of those entitled to share in the grant.

THE CASE OF MR. BISHOP.

The Marquis of NORMANBY again brought the case of
Mr. Bishop under the consideration of their lordships, and
complained of the apathy of her Majesty's Government in
not urging the Italian Government to liberate that gentle-
man from further imprisonment.

Earl RUSSELL in effect repeated the answer he had
riven the other evening, which was to the effect that Mr.
Bishop would be released as soon as brigandage was sup-
pressed. The Italian Government had stated that in the
present state of Southern Italy, and with a due regard to
justice in the case of their own subjects convicted of a similar
offence, they could not liberate Mr. Bishop at present, but
that they would release him at the first favourable oppor-
trtnity.

The Earl of HARDWICKE did not believe that
brigandage would be suppressed during his lifetime, and
under such circumstances there was more necessity than
ever of the British Government urging his release.

THE lONIAN ISLANDS.
The Earl of DERBY said that on Thursday next he
would ask the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs a
question with respect to the proclamation said to have been
issued at Corfh announcing the annexation of the lonian
Islands to Greece.

Earl RUSSELL expressed his opinion that no procla-
mation had been issued in the manner stated in the news-
papers.

The Duke of NEWCASTLE expressed a similar
opinion.

In reply to Mr. WYVILL,
The Marquis of EIARTINGTON said it was true that
the Fife Artillery Militia were unprovided during their
period of training last year with any gun or battery from
which they could fire shot or shell, and he was afraid that
the same must be the case this year.
METROPOLITAN CABS.

Lord E. THYNNE asked the Secretary of State for the
Home Department whether, as the police prevent cabs from
plying in Pall-mall, he would give instructions to the
metropolitan police to enforce that system throughout the
entire metropolis.
Sir G. GREY said that, in consequence of the large num-
ber of cabs plying between Waterloo station and St. James's-
street, the order in question had been issued ; but that, to
meet the traffic of the locality three additional cabstands
had been established in the vicinity. A general order was
in existence by which the police were ordered to summon
drivers who might be plying for fares about the streets.

MARK LANE.

Fresh up to this morning's market a supply of English
wheat was received. The demand ruled far from active
either for red or white produce, nevertheless Monday's im-
provement in the currency was well supported.
The show of samples of foreign wheat was large. All
descriptions were in slow request, yet prices ruled firm. A
very moderate business was done on French account.
Floating cargoes of grain ruled firm at fall quotations.
The supply of barley was small, and the value both of
grinding and distilling parcels, notwithstanding that the
demand was somewhat inactive, was fully maintained.
Malt was in slow request on former•terms.
The market was well supplied with oats. The best
qualities changed hands slowly, at Monday's quotations;
otherwise the trade was dull.
Beans ruled firm, at extreme rates, sad the value of peas
was well supported.
In English and foreign flour a fair business was trans-
acted, at full quotations.

THE REVISED CODE.

Lord R. CECIL asked the vice-president of the com-
mittee of council whether the committee of council held
hat they were discharged of all liability to the pupil tet.ch-
e_re under article 54 of the revised code by paying, in ac-
cordswith paragraph 36 of the instructions, to the
gratuities the amount of the pupil teachers' stipends and

However, to answer the question more directly, he :in

the schools but the managers ; and when they had had Paid
the money voted by Parliament to the managers, the ewe_
mittee stood discharged of all liability. In all cases, not
excluding the very improbable one supposed by the noble
lord, the pupil teachers would be without a remedy against
the committee of council. With regard to the noble
lord's second question, as to whether the committee had
made any definition of the term " manual labour" with
a view of excluding the children of certain parents from
the schools, the noble lord was quite mistaken in sup-
posing that the committee had made a regulation exclud-
ing the children of such parents. What the committee
had done was to order that the children of such parents
should be entered in a separate column from the others,
in order that the parents should be made to contribute
towards their education. The committee had not sup-
plied any definition of the term "manual labour ;" but no
doubt, when they had had experience of the classes of per-
sons who sent their children to the schools, they should be
able to frame a more satisfactory definition of the class in-
tended to be described as living by manual labour.

CAPTAIN COLES'S PAMPHLET.

Mr, ADDINGTON asked the Secretary to the Admiralty
whether his attention had been directed to a pamphlet pub-
lished by Captain Cowper Coles, R.N , purporting to con-
tain a correct statement of the comparative expense of build-
ing iron skips of war to carry broadside guns, and ships of
war with the same weight of metal fitted on the cupola sys-
tem; and whether the statement therein contained was ac-
cepted by him as correct?

Lord C. PAGET said he had read the pamphlet of Capt.
Coles, and found it a very interesting work. He should be
sorry to guarantee that this gallant officer's assertion with
respect to those ships were correct. Very probably he had
taken great pains in estimating the figures upon which his
conclusions were based, but he (Lord C. Paget) knew full
well that many estimates which had been made on this and
kindred subjects had not turned out correct.
CRIMINAL LUNATICS.

Gen. BUCKLEY asked the Secretary of State for the
Home Department whether the building intended for
criminal lunatics was ready ; and whether those criminal
lunatics now confined at the private asylum at Fisherton,
near Salisbury, amounting to the number of 284, were
likely shortly to be removed to the new asylum ?
Sir G. GREY replied that he was informed that a large
portion of the new building was ready, and 100 criminal
luuatics would shortly be received. He could not say when
it would be ready for the reception of a larger number.
The first inmates would consist of persons from Fisherton.

NOSE.—Every attempt, says the Rocnesay corre-
spondent of the Morning Journal, made to arrange
the differences betwixt these gentlemen, in refer-
ence to the Bailie pulling Mr. Comrie's nose twice at
a meeting, having failed, an action of damages (for
£6OO, we team) before the Court of Session will be served
on the Bailie in the early part of next week. The Bailie is
to raise two counter actions for £lOO each as a solatium for
alleged language uttered by Mr. Connie derogatory to
the Bailie's character. From the correspondence that
has passed betwixt their agents, and which we have
seen, we learn that Mr. Connie agreed to accept a full apo-

RAILWAY BILLS BILL.

Mr. VHALI:EY postponed the second reading of this
bill until to-morrow fortnight, as the committee up stairs
had not yet brought its sittings to a close.
FACTORY OPERATIVES.

Mr. FERRAND gave notice that on Thursday next he
should ask the President of the Poor-law Board whether the
number of those factory operatives who had never applied
for out-door relief were included in the number of unem-
ployed cited by him in the recent debate, and whether
there was any return of the unemployed married women.
MEDICAL OFFICERS (INDIA).
In reply to Mr. BAZLEY,

Sir C. WOOD said that the warrant of 1860 did not
profess to make the two services identical. The question
with respect to the medical officers was then under discus-
sion. There was a difference of opinion in India on the
Fubject, and a medical commission had been appointed to
report upon it, Until, however, the Indian Board received
the decision of the Secretary at War upon the matter they
could not well determine what course to adopt.

" Thus in ancient times did the King and the National Diet
greet envoys and visitors of mark. But since Poland

With what, then, shall we greet thee—unless with an old
legend drawn from the people's Sibylline Books, and
written down in the days when the nation rose with
faith in the name of the Virgin and strove with arms
against its enemies P It was then that an inspired bard,
while bewailing the agony of Pt land, foretold its re-
demption.
