After some observations from Lord A. CHURCHILL,

Lord STANLEY thought in the natural course of
things, the Maori race must disappear, as all other abori-
ginal tribes had done who had ever come into contact with
European civilisation. What we ought now to do was to
satisfy ourselves that the colonists did all they could in
their own behalf ; then to continue to them such temporary
military aid as they needed, on the understanding, how-
ever, that it was kept down to the lowest point, and that it
would not be similarly given after the termination of the
war. There was one thing which he hoped would not
be done ; it was that the governor would not have any
power over matters of diplomacy and native relations
independently of all control on the part of his respon-
sible advisers. In short, he would say, limit your aid as
much as you can : withdraw it as soon as possible.

Lord R. CECIL urged that the Legislature was bound
to see that native rights did not suffer harm. At the same
time, as the management of native relations was to be
handed over to the colonists themselves, it was the duty of
Parliament to withdraw the power of England trom the
scene of conflict as rapidly as possible.
Observations were also made by Mr. W. E. Foßsnit
and Mr. KIN-NM:RD.

Mr. CARDNVELL argued that there was ample room for
civilised culture, the growth of population and property,
and for both races to live side by side in New Zealand with-
out the necessity of dispossessing the Maories. And he
added, that if ever there was a native race capable of pro-
fiting by the advantages of civilisation it was the natives
of New Zealand. It might have been wise or not to make

he treaty of Waitangi ; but haring made it it was equally

just, wise, and honourable, to observe its provisions. As
yet the rebellion had not been extinguished, but if the war
was dying out, and we withdre-v the 10,000 troops we had

there, and intimated our desire no longer to be made the
instruments of perpetuating hostilities, he though we might
safely conclude that no war policy would be pursued by
the colonists. He did not believe it possible to subjugate
the Maories without the assistance of the power of Eng-
land, and that being so he presumed the colonists of them-
selves would not be ambitious to attempt it. He readily
accepted, then, the new policy which the colonial Ministry
and Assembly had recently offered to adopt.

Mr. M'EVOY moved to resolve that the Government
should now adopt the recommendations of the select com-
mittee of 1858, with regard to the claims of Ireland to a
grant of the half-cost of medical officers in unions, with
the view of providing for the same in future, as is now the
practice in England and Scotland.
The motion was opposed by the CHANCELLOR
of the EXCHEQUER, on the ground that the re-
commendations of a select committee were not conclu-
sive reasons for guiding the decision of the house, and be-
cause a select committee had been reappointed to consider
the general question of Irish taxation.
After discussion, in which Mr. NEATE, Mr. WHITESIDE,
and other members took part, the motion was negatived,
upon a division, by 37 to 34.

Mr. AUGUSTUS SMITII addressed some remarks to the
house relative to the operations of the Westminster Im-
provement Commission, which elicited an explanation from
Mr. TrrE in reply.

The Game (Ireland) Bill was read a second time by
50 to 8.

The Private Bill Costs Bill was read a third time and
passed.

THEATRES AND PLACES OF AMUSEMENT.
Mr. LOCKE, in moving for leave to introduce a bill
to amend the law relating to theatres and other places of
public amusement, said that its object was partly to obviate
the danger to which the public were at present exposed in
those buildings in case of accident or fire. The object of
the bill would settle the question that had arisen between
the theatres and music halls, and he understood there was
no objection to it on the part of the Government. He
moved for leave to bring in the bill.
Mr. T. G. BARING would not oppose the bill at that
stage. As far as he knew, however, the Lord Chamberlain
had taken every precaution to insure the safety of all build-
ings in which public entertainments were given. (Hear.)
Leave was then given to bring in the bill.
Mr. CHILDERS brought in the Marine Mutiny Bill,
which was read a first time.

The house adjourned at 25 minutes past 9 o'clock.

The Burglary in Mark-lane.

Yesterday the three men named Rowland (otherwise
Hogan), Bell, and Notley, who stand charged with break-
ing and entering the premises of Messrs. T wiss and
Browning, commission agents, at 47, Mark-lane, and
stealing three cashboxes containing banknotes and a
number of securities representing merchandise of great
♦slue, were brought before the Lord Mayor, at the
Justice-room of the Mansion-house, for further examina-
tion.

Mr. Humphreys, solicitor, of Newgate-street (Hum-
phreys and Morgan), conducted the prosecution. The
prisoners, who aro all very young men, defended them-
selves.

The manner in which the prisoners Rowland and Bell
contrived to get within the front door of the premises in
question in Mark-lane, by one of them taking a letter ad-
dressed to a servant girl living at the top of the house, and

lock on the inside ; but the rest of the attendant circum-
stances, some of which are very remarkable, were not
brought clearly out until yesterday. It appears that Messrs
Twigs and Browning, who are
extensively engaged as
commission agents, have two iron safes,
and that these are
inclosed in a strong-room in their office.

one of Chubb's patent locks, and had resisted alls secured
d
efforts
of the burglars to open it. The other safe contained the
books of the firm, some petty cash, and papers in two cash-
boxes, and nearly GO dock warrants in F iron box, repre-
senting merchandise to a large amount, but which a thief
Could not have negotiated. All negotiable bills and moneys
belonging to the firm were kept at their bankers, accord-
ing to a cnstom common among merchants. On the even-
ing preceding the burglary Thomas Young, a clerk of the
firm, before leaving the office, which he did a few minutes
before seven, locked up the one iron safe of which he had
the key, and the strong-room, and left the porter, George.
Rye, to lock up the premises. There were then in the iron
safe the two cashboxes and the iron box containing dock
warrants. Mr. Henry Wood, a principal clerk, had pre-
viously locked the boxes, and there was then in one of
them seven £5 Bank of England notes, an Australian so-
vereign, a bad halfcrown and a bad sixpence ; in another
a check for £5 and some papers, and among the dock
warrants, fifty-seven in number, in the iron box, there
was a£s bank note. On locking the strong-room, Mr.
Young placed the key of it, according to custom, in a
pigeon-hole in the office. The porter Geo. Rye, at eight
o'clock, on leaving for the night, locked the outer door and
piNvnuttrhtehese key of it in his pocket. He had previously observed
that the strong-room door was locked, and that the key was
pigeon-hole. It is already known how the thieves
