PARLIAMENT

-*-
HOUSE OF LORDS—Last Evening.
The Lord Chancellor took his seat at the usual hour,
PRIVATE BUSINESS.

The Fiint, Holywell, and Mostyn Roads; Southampton
Port, Harbour, and Pier ; Caledonian Railway (Improve-
ments) ; London and Brighton and South-Coast Railway
(Dorking to Leatherhead) ; and the Maidstone Water
bills were read a second time.
THIRD READINGS.
The following bills were read a third time and passed,
viz. :—The Launceston and South Devon Railway, Dare
Valley Railway, Glasgow Gas, Leyland and Farringdon
Gas, Hereford, Hay, and Brecon Railway, Aylesbury
Markets, St. Asaph Roads, and North Beverley Gas.
THE ALKALI WORKS REGULATION BILL.

LOCAL GOVERNMENT ACT (1S58) AMENDMENT
ILL.
This bill was read a thirßd time.
NEW ZEALAND BOUNDARIES BILL.
This bill was also read a third time and passed.
OFFENCES (SOUTH AFRICA) BILL.
This bill was read a third time and passed.
THE GALWAY CONTRACT,
The Earl of HARDWICKE asked h€r Majesty's Go-
vornment whether the contract for the conveyance of her
Majesty's nails between Galway and America was to be
simply a resumption of the old contract, or whether it was
intended to introduce any and what modification therein ;
and also whether the rate of speed originally stipulated was
slid to be exacted, and also whether a copy of the contract
would be laid upon the table of the ILusa of Commons
before the introduction of the estimates for the mail packet
service.

Lord STANLEY of ALDERLEY said he was in the
same condition as he was before, as he had not received any
official intelligence relative to engaging the ships. H©
might, however, say that the same requirements as before
relative to the speed and ships to perform the service would
be required, and a copy of the contract would be laid on the
table of the house before the estimates were taken.
TILE METROPOLITAN RAILWAY.
Earl GRAN VILLE referred to the following motion
which stood upon the paper in the name of Lord Strath-
eden, namely :—" To move a humble address to her Ma-
jesty praying her Majesty to appoint a commission
to inquire whether it was desirable to provide
within the limits of the metropolis any additional
termini or extension of railways already existing, or to pro-
vide any connection or communication between such rail.
ways ; also, whether it was desirable to allow any additional
railways to be made within such limits, and if so, in what
manner, and with what restrictions, the several works
should b 3 carried out. The noble earl said it would be
very inconvenient to move for the appointment of a com-
mission whilst there was a committee sitting, to which the
subject might be referred.

Lord STRATHEDEN thought that good might have
resulted from his motion, but he should not act is opposi-
tion to the opinion of the noble earl.

The Alarq-uis of CLANRICARDE said complications
were arising in Dublin similar to that in London, and he
thought the expression of their lordships' opinion should
,apply to Dublin also.
Lord REDESDALE said he was quite aware of the state
of Dublin, in consequence of the Dublin and Kingston
and other railways, and was of opinion that some interfer-
ence was required.
The motion was then withdrawn, and
Their lordships adjourned.

HOUSE OF COMMONS_Last Evening.
The SPEAKER took the chair at the usual hour.
THIRD READINGS.
The Norwich Poor Bill was read a third time.
The following bills were considered and ordered to be
read a third time :—Blackfriars Bridge—Exeter Gaol—
Great Western Railway (Branch at Great Bridge)—lnver.
news and Perth Junction and Perth and Dunkeld Railway
Companies—Seaton and Beer Railway—Ware, Hadham,
and Buntingford Railway.
PETITIONS.

Lord FEILMOY, from Marylebone, against the amalga-
mation of the City with the Metropolitan Police, and
praying that the metropolitan districts might have the
government of their own police; Mr. J. J. POWELL, from
Gloucester, signed by 900 inhabitants, against the sale of
intoxicating liquors on the Sabbath.
RAILWAY BILLS BILL.
Mr. WHALLEY 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 no.
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
subject, 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.
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 ships 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?

Lori 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 these 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.
