Thus the stock now in hand in Europa, and of East

only 665,0011 bales, against 2,511,000 at the same period
last year. Such a comparatively small supply for the next
three months will naturally strike those who may even not

efforts should be made to obtain from India, now our only
hope, as large a proportion as possible of the supply of
cotton which Europe now requires to meet the consump- •
tion of Cotton goods going on.
Permit me to thank you for the able manner in which
you have so frequently of late discussed this question, and
for having so clearly pointtd out to spinners that the
question rates with themselves alone; for did they
but entertain a vise appreciation of their position we
should not have witne•sed, a. of late, w althy and exten-

Mr. VILLIERS said the question now raised was the
same which had been dispos,d of the other n ght. The
object of the bill was more to relieve rate payers than to
provide relief for the poor. He b:tlieved that the distress
would be greater than at present, but that the worst time
would be over by October.

Aft« r some remarks from General LINDSAY and Mr.
CRALTURD,

Nr. COBDEN said he bad that morning received a
telegram from Rochdale, infotmiog him of the opinion of
the people that the bill would be valueless. It was the
general desire of the people of Lancashire that borrowing
powers should be granted. In the name of Lancashire, be
was willing to give up the rate in aid altogether if they
could not have the borrowing powers with it. (Hear,
hear.)

Mr. J. B. SMITH supported the rate in aid. He
thtught the Government made a great mistake in itot
to ing means for promotiug the growth of cotton in India.
Ile opposed the borrowing powers, considering that if money
were borrowed, the parishes would nut be ab.e to pay with-
out great emberra.ssment.
Mr. NEW DEGATE thought the request of Lancashire
reasonable one. The people of that county must be the
best judges of theit own requirements. The loan, he
thought. ought to be granted in the first instance.
Mr. HENLEY approved of the plan of the Government
rather than than of borrowing. He thought the plan of
the G 'vernmeot should be adopted, and if it failed, Parlia-
ment could be called together in the a .tutrin.
Mr C. LEIGH suupported the views expressed by Mr.
Cobden.

Lord PALMERSTON said that nn doubt it was an easy
way of getting money t. borrow it, rtgardless of conse-
quences, but it w.Juld be the introduction of a new principle
which might be applied to every district in the country in
which there was any (Est rsss. He believed that
the wealth of Lancashire and Cheshire was suf-
ficiently great to provide for any rate in aid which might
be thrown upon them. (Hear, hear.) He regretted that
some of the wealthy capitalists of Lancashire and Cheshire,
perceiving the diffi,ulties and distress which were cowing
on, bad sold the mitetials they ought to have used, and
had gone out of the country. He hui•ed the house would
stand by the bill as it stood.
111 r. AYR VON denuunced the bill as it stood as a gross
injustice.

Mr. DEEDES supported the ameLdinent propcsed by
Mr. Pul er.

A'dernian SIDNEY supported the proposal of the Go-
verLmt nt. He ou!cl not understand where the money
pi °post dto be b rrowt d was to come from. He thought
a loan would be a very unsuuni mode of meeting et tem-
porary pressure.
The Marquis of HAILTINGTON supported the amend-
mcnt, believing that Laos would be the only means of
making pr perty pay its fair share.

The house divided—

Col. .V. PATTEN hoped th:A al er each au rxpresion

Lord PALMERSTON said, the house having decided
in favour of the loan principle, the Government would in-
troduce a measure embodying the principle affirmed.
Mr. VILLIERS said he would uvdertalto to propose a
clause giving the alternative power of a rate in aid or a
10%, er.

Recent discussions in Parliament have called
special attention to the new mansion erected by
the Duke of Buccleuch on the site of Montagu-
Louse, and which is just now on the point of com-
pletion. but though every care has been taken,
and no expense spared, to make this house one of
the moat perfect in metropolis, there seems to be a
doubt now whether, after all, the Duke will over
inhabit it ; certain it is that his Grace has renewed.
the term of his temporary residence, which expired
this autumn. The peat fault of old Montagu-
house was that, in wry high tides, it admitted Old
Father Thames into its kitchen, and the greatest
care has been taken in the new structure to prevent
the entrance of so unwelcome a visitor. All the
old materials were ground down and made into a
sort of concrete to form the foundation of the new
building, and ev-ry possible precaution taken to
make the new mansion water-tight in its lower
regions ; and, while thus guarded in its foundations
from the irruption of one element, due care has been
taken in the superstructure against the destructive
agency of another. The new house is substantially,
though perhaps not theoretically, fire-proof. Iron
has been substituted for wood in all the most im-
portant parts of the construction, and should a fire
unfortunately arise, every possible precaution has
been taken to prevent its spreading beyond the
aparment in which it should arise. Everything,
therefore, has been done that wealth could com-
mand and talent devise to make this a desirable
abode for a nobleman of the highest rank. But
there is a rumour that the Duke is not indisposed
o part with his house to the Government on being
reimbursed his outlay ; and therefore the new
Montagu-house may yet be converted into public
offices. The contract for the completion of the
building expires at the latter end of this autumn,
and ere the Duke begins to decorate end furnish
there is no doubt the destination of the bui,iding
will be decided.—Cuttrt Journal.
