Tag NELSON MONUMENT.
Mr. COWPER, in answer to the hon. and gallant mem-
ber (Admiral Walcott) who had brought the subject before
the house said that an order had beeri given in 1858 to Sir
E. Landseer for the completion of the lions for the base of
the statue. But he supposed in this, as in other cases,
they could not always command genius, and perhaps the
distinguished artist to whom the work was entrusted was
studying the habits of lions—(laughter)—and he had been
seen frequently in the Zoology Gardens. (Renewed
laughter.) The consequence was that they might look
forward to a work of greater perfection than if it had been
executed at the time the order was given.

POLAND.
Mr. DENMAN called attention to the condition of Po-
land, and moved for papers in reference thereto. He refer •
red to the partition of Poland, and voted the words of Lord
Macaulay in reference to that political event, in which he
designated it like tearing a living man limb from limb. He
then went, in detail, through the different steps that had
been taken by Russia to denationalise Poland sub-
sequent to the partition, and in violation of
the treaty of 'Vienna ; notwithstanding which
; the feeling of nationality in the minds of the people of
l Poland was undiminished. In the conference which took
place between the great powers of Europe prior to the
Treaty of Paris in 1856, Lord Clarendon received an assur-
ance on the part of the Emperor of Russia that certain in-
stitutions would be granted and certain things, done for
Poland, and en the faith of that proiaiso,
Lord Clarendon made no further demands in reference to
Poland. He thought that the Government must be in 108"
session of papers relating to what had taken place in refer-
ence to Poland at that convention, and he thought it "8
not only due to that unfortunate country, but to this, co.QuiT
try, to have those papers produced, to show
feeling was in favour of the cause of Poland.

this is yet to be proved. The 60 sovereigns, however, were
