DRAB PRIZE MONEY.

Mr. H. LEWIS asked the' Secretary of State for India
when the second issue of the Dhar pr z 3 money would take
place ; and what was the cause of the delay of such issue ;
and What was the tutal amount now available for distri-
bution ?

Sir C. WOOD said ho had received no information on
the subject from India. lie could not take upon himself to
say that there were funds for another distribution.

THE SAVINGS BANK FUND.
Mr. HENLEY asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer
whether the sum of £7,703 4s. Od., stated in Parliamentary
Pap.,”-, No. 325, of session 1865, to have been paid under
the notholity of the Act 3 end 4 Will. 4,
,c. 14, out of the
fund for the banks of savings, ought not to have been paid
out of the fund upon which the establishment of the Com-
missioners for the Reduction of the National Debt was
chargeable ; and whether the sums of £255 14s. 2d. and
£297 10s., being the amounts charged iu columns 1 and 2
of the same Parliamentary paper, ought not, under the
Act 26 and 27 Vic., c. 87, to have been charged upon the
fund upon which the establishment of the Commissioners
for the Reduction of the National Debt was chargeable.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, said the
payments were all perfectly regular, and- charged to th
proper fund. The right hon. gentleman could raise the
question if he thought proper.
THE CHARITY COMMISSION.
_ _

Mr. 'MUNDY asked. the right hon. member for Cam:
bridge University whether the consent of the Ecch,siastical
Commissioners was previously obtained for the substitution
of the Bishop of St. Asaph for the Bishop of Bangor, as
President of the Hospital of Christ at Ruthin ; and the
like consent for the substitution of the Bishop of Oxford
for Bishop of Lincoln, as trustee of Lady Conyngham's
charities, by order of the Charity Commission.
Mr. WALPOLE said the matter did not affect any ques-
tion of patronage, and therefore it took place without a re-
ference to the Ecclesiastical Commission.
• ENGLAND AND CANADA.
_

Mr. DISRAELI asked whether the right hon. gentle,-
man the Secretary for the Colonies would name any day
for considering the matters relating to England and Canada.
Mr. CARDWELL said it was not his intention to do se
at present. The papers would be produced to-morrow and
after they had been in the hands of members it would then
be time enough -to take such a step. -
LORD AMBERLEY.
Mr. HENNESSY drew attention to a correspondence
with respect to the position in which Viscount Aniberley
travelled on board one of her Majesty's vessels. He was
called an " attache." Now, if that was so, he should like
to know whether he passed the civil service examination,
the date at which he did so, and whether he received a
certificate from the civil examiners.
Mr. LYARD said it was a mistake of the officers
of the ship to call Viscount Amberly an attache.
He travelled as private secretary to Mr. Elliott, who had
been appointed to a special mission, and there was
nothing out of the usual course in so doing. The whole
thing was a very simply matter, and a great deal more had
been made of the matter than there was any occasion for.
