the Church of England for attendance on an equal number
of soldiers ; and, if so, upon what grounds such a scale had
been adopted ?
Mr. S. HERBERT said a distinction was made between
the allowance made to married and unmarried clergymen,
a larger allowance being made to the former thal the
latter.

PROSPECT OF PEACE.
On the motion for reading the order of the day,
Lord J. RUSSELL rose and said—Sir, it will be
satisfactory to the house to hear what I have to say.
It has been stated in the newspapers that the Go-
vernment of Russia had acceded to the proposition of
the Governments of Austria and Prussia to evacuate
the Principalities. (Hear.) With' respect to any such
statement, I can only say that no official intelligence has
been received to that effect by her Majesty's Government;
but a despatch has been received to-day from Lord West-
moreland, in which he states it as certain, from Bucharest,
that the siege of Silistria has been raised. (Cheers.)
OXFORD UNIVERSITY BILL.

On the order of the day for the third reading of this
bill,

Mr. PHINN moved the insertion of the following
clauses :—That from and after the passing of this act, the
Court of the-Vice-Chancellor of Oxford-shalt in ell matters
of law be governed by the common and statute law of
the realm, and not by the rules of the civil law.
That it shall be lawful for any three of the Judges of the
Superior Courts to make such rules as they may deem fit
for the regulation of the procedure of the said court ; and
that the said court shall proceed in all matters subject to
the said rules in conformity with the mode of procedure
established in the County Cow ts. That all persons
duly admitted to act as counsel or attorney in
any Court of Law or Equity, shall be admitted
to practise in the said court ; and that no person
in holy orders shall be permitted to practise therein as ad-
vocate or proctor.
The motion was agreed to, and the clause was added to
the bill.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved the
insertion of the following clause :—Provided always that all
ordinances and regulations framed by the Commissioners
and objected to by two-thirds of the governing body or
bodies of the college, school, or schools, to which the same
respectively relate, shall, in all cases where new ordinances
and regulations shall not have been substituted under the
provisions of this act for such as shall have been so obj-
jected to, be embodied in a report to be transmitted forth-
with to one of her Majesty's Principal Secretaries of State,
and laid before the two Houses of Parliament.
-Sl'he clause was agreed to and added to the bill.
Mr. HEYWOOD moved for the insertion of the clause
which he had moved, and which was rejected on Thursday
night, in the bill, the object of the clause being to abolish
tests on taking the degree of a B.A. in any of the faculties.
The real object of his clause was to set up the flag of reli-
gious liberty in the university.
Mr. GASKELL seconded the motion. The tests that
were now imposed upon the university students form d no
security for the Church of England, as the incidents of the
last fifteen years fully established. During that period,
the enemies of the Church in the university were not Pro-
testant Dissenters, but men who had signed the thirty-nine
Articles, and he could not help feel ng, that instead of
weakening they would strengthen the Church by admitting
Dissenters to the university.
Mr. NEWDEGATE insisted that before students were
called upon to sign the 39 articles, proper care was taken
to make them acquainted with their force and meaning
He thought these testa ought not to be disposed of in a
single clause. but made the subject of a separate bill.
It was only right that at least one of the three
Universities should be closely allied to the Established
Church of the country, and that was why he objected to
the abolition of these tests at Oxford.
Lord J. RUSSELL remarked that after the decision
which the house came to on another clause on Thursday
night, it was only right that they should pass some such
clause as this. He had always been favourable to the ad-
mission of Dissenters to the university, but at the same time
he thought it unwise to allow them to run the race
of competition at the university, and yet debar
them from participating in its privileges. So far, therefore,
as the clause went, namely, to allow Dissenters to receive
the degree of B.A. in law and medicine without conform-
ing to any test except that of-the. oath of allegiance, he was
not indisposed to support it. _ The clause would confer no
right of obtaining a fellowship, or taking any part in
the government of the university, without the can-
didate subscribed to the other tests, and under those
circumstances he hoped the harm would experience
no difficulty in acceding to the clause. (Hear, hear.)
Sir J. PAKINGTON said the change which had been
made in the clause since Thursday had come upon the
house by surprise, and as a matter of Parliamentary prac-
tice he objected to proceeding to a division upon it until
ample time had been given for considering its force and
bearing. (Hear, hear.)
Mr. H. DRUMMOND had always considered the real
object of this bill to be the introduction of Dissenters
into the university. Certainly the university was
not in harmony with the present state of English
society. The university had not changed, but the
English people had, and they were not now so universally
attached to the Established Church as they were at the
time of the Reformation. Originally the University
was intended as a manufactory of clergyman for the Estab-
lished Church ; bat time and circumstances had changed,
and Parliament had now decided that it should be con-
verted into a place of education.' Where, then, could
be the objection to the clause ? He could see none, but
for his part he would exclude no one from the university
except the cause of the exclusion came from themselves.
Mr. NAPIER was most anxious that all parties should
participate in the advantages of the universities, but feared
that the direct interference of Parliament would only re-
tard that object. His opinion was that no alteration could
be successfully carried on unless it got the cheerful co-
operation of the heads of the university. If, by enforcing
the. nomination of masters of arts, they laid political siege
to the university, there would be continued apprehension
on the part of that body that any time the dissenters felt
they had political power• they would besiege the univer-
sity again.
Sir E. PERRY thought it unjust to the dissenters to
treat them in any manner distinct from members of the
Church of England; but though he thought the dissenters
ought to he satisfied with nothing less than free admission
to all the advantages of the university, excluding theol.sgy,
he thought under the circumstances, it would be wrong to
reject the compromise propose i.
The SPEAKER thought it his duty to call attention to
a rule made the other day, and which was now a sessional
order, that no clause could be altered on the consideration
of the report or on the third reading of any bill without
previous notice—and a notice given on the same day as the
motion was intended to be brought forward the house had
never regarded as a notice. (Hear.)
Mr. HE suggested that notice of the clause had
been previously given ; all he now proposed to do was to
alter the form of the clause.
The SPEAKER still held that the clause could not be
proposed without previous notice, unless the amendment
was generally acceded to by the house. If any one mem-
ber objected to the clause in its altered form it could not
be put. The better course would be to postpone the fur-
ther proceedings on the third reading to a future day, and
the hon. member would then have the opportunity of giving
the required notice.
Mr. LABOUC HERE wished to know whether, when a
clause was brought forward on notice, it would not be
competent under the new rule for auy other hon. member
to move an amendment without giving previous notice of
such amendment ?
The SPEAKER replied that the house always reserved
to itself the right of altering any clause after it had been
moved ; but until it had been read a second time, no
amendment could he moved, and no notice hiving been
given of the clause in question in its altered shape the
house could not, under the recently adopted rule receive it;
consequently they had not arrived at that stage when any
amendment could be considered.
Lord J. RUSSELL understood, from the explanation of
the Speaker, that the only course now was to adjourn the
further proceeding on the present stage of the bill, and
his hon. friend would then have the opportunity of giving
notice of his clause in its amended shape. He proposed
that the further proceeding on the third reading should
be adjourned to Thursday next, and would ask an hon.
friend of his (Mr. Layard) who had been promised that
day to bring forward an important motion, to take Friday
instead.
Mr. WALPOLE said the main object was that the
clause should be duly considered before the house came to
a decision. From what took place the other evening and
to-night, it appeared to him that there was a desire on the
part of the house that the bar which prevented the admis-
sion of Dissenters to the University should be rejnoved—.
(cheers)—and as he understood 'the object of the clause as
now proposed was not to interfere with the government of '
the University or with the endowments, and that being
consonant with the opinion expressed by the house on Fri-
day evening, all he required to know was, whether the hon.
gentleman (Mr. Heywood) intended to bring up the clause-
on the further consideration of the bill in the amended
form in which it now was, or in any other form ? He
asked this because he thought it more desirable that the
house should come to a determination by mutual agree-
ment than that they should enter into another long dis-
cussion on the subject. (Cheers.)
After some further remarks from Sir W. Heathcote, Mr.
Sergeant Shee, Mr. V. Scully, and Lord J. Russell, the
further consideration of the bill was adjourned to Thurs-
day next.
PUBLIC REVENUE AND CONSOLIDATED FUND
CHARGES BILL.

On the order of the day being read for resuming the
adjourned debate on the consideration of this bill as
amended,
Colonel DUNNE moved that the bill be i ecommitted.
After some discussion the house divided, and the motion
for recommitment was negatived by a majority of 90
against 53.

The original motion was then agreed to.
THE CONSTITUTION OF NEW ZEALAND.
On the motion for going into committee of supply,
Mr. ADDERLEY called the attention of the house to
the conduct of the late Governor of New Zealand in delay-
ing and partially frustrating the new constitution granted
to that colony. He charged Governor Grey with being
attached to the old autocratic colonial system, and with
having set himself to retard the.working of recent consti-
tutional legislation, not only by availing himself of the
utmost period of legal delay in convening the Legislature,
but by certain illegal acts in regard to the coloniarrevenue,
Crown lands, and otherwise. • •
Mr. F. PEEL defended the count, which had been
adopted by Governor Grey, and said that it was unfair to
assail him for using the discretion allowed him' by law.
The constitution had, he said, been given to the colony as
early as Parliament had intended should be the case, and
the delay spoken of was no more than was necessaryfor the
due working ont of the details of the electoral system. He
also vindicated Governor Grey's conduct, in regard to the
other points on which it had been attacked by Mr. Adder-
ley, and, eulogising the character of Sir George said that
the very best results might be anticipated from his appoint-
ment to th 3 government of the Cape.
Sir JOHN PAKINGTON bore general testimony to the
merits of Sir G. Grey es a colonial governor, but he could
not consider that recent acts of Sir George in the colony of
Nee; Zealand had been successfully vindicated by Mr. Peel.
He thought that Sir George had acted indiscreetly in re-
gard to the disposal of the land, and that he had not acted
in conformity with the intentions of Parliament in delay-
ing the convening of the Legislature.
The COLONIAL SECRETARY said a few words in vin-
ilication of Sir G. Grey from a minor charge advanced by
Sir J. Pakington, of having left the colony before the new
constitutional arrangements had been completed.
The subject then dropped.
COLONIAL ESTIMATES.
The house then went into committee on theserestiinates.
On the vote of 4,0191. for the Bermudas,
Sir G. PECHELL complained that a very lax practice
prevailed with reference to allowing the military (Accra
to act as governors in the absence of the governor from the
colony. He remarked
.that the salary of the governor in
this vote was 1,5001., while in other colonies the amount
!Cos only 1,0001. or 1,2001.
Sir J. PAKINGTON asked whether any accounts had

^r

' lately been received from the West Indian Islands, and
also whether the Government intended to appoint medical
inspectors for that place ?
Sir G. GREY said the accounts had been received from
Jamaica and Barbadnes, from which it appeared that a
serious ainouet of ill health had prevailed there, and Go-
vernment had sent out two inspectors. With regard to the
expense of inspectors, Oen) might be no objection in some
instances to aid the colonists iu part paying those officers ;
the matter, however, was under consideration.
Mr. WILLIAMS objected to the salary of the Governor
of the Windward Islands (4,0001. a year) who was, he said,
really only governor of Barbadoes. The hon. member ob-
jected also to the salary of the Governor of Jamaica to
3,5001. a year, whilst the colonists gave him 1,5001. a year.
The people of Jamaica made their own laws and should
pay their own governor. He moved that this item be
omitted.
Mr. F. PEEL explained that it was not a new charge,
but had been settled.by arrangement with the colonists of
Jamaica, to induce them to alter their constitution.
Sir G. PECHELL objected to- the salary of the Gover-
nor of Nova Scotia.
Captain SCOBELL approved of the motion of the hon.
member for Lambeth ; but as the salary was the result of
a bargain he supposed it could not be helped. He wished
to know how long the compact was to last ?
Mr. F. PEEL said it dated frem.last year, and was to
last for three. At the end of that time it would be open
for re-consideration.
Mr. W. WILLIAMS did not see of what advantage
to this country were the proceedings of the Assembly of
Jamaica.
- Lord J. RUSSELL explained that it had been for many
years an object with the Home Government to obtain cer-
tain alterations in the constitution of Jamaica. Last year
those alterations were effected, and the vote objected to
formed a portion of the arrangement,
Mr. OT WAY objected to the salary of the Governor of
Prince Edward's Island. The accounts of this Island
showed a surplus revenue, and therefore there was no rea-
son why the colony should not pay its own governor.
Mr. W. WILLIAMS withdrew his motion, and the vote
was agreed to.
28,8751., salaries of stipendiary jtaitrees in the Island of
Mauritius and the West Indies.
Capt. SCOBELL and Mr. WILLIAMS respectively ob-
jected to the vote, and called for particulars.
Mr. A. PEL GATT also objected to the vote, but after a
short discussion it was agreed to.
14,1101., civil establishments on the west coast of Africa.
-Agreed to.
12,476/ , establishments in the island of St. Helena.--
Agreed to.
2,313/.; establishments at Western Australia.
Mr. J. A. SMITH attempted to raise a discussion with
respect to the Governor of New Zealand, but was called
to order by the chairman.
Sir J. PAKINGTON inquired why the salary of the
Bishop of New Zealand did not appear in the votes. It
was only 6001. a-year, but he (Sir J. Pakington) had been
informed that some days since the Bishop of New Zealand
had received an intimation that his salary was withdrawn.
Sir G. GREY, after bearing his testimony to the high
character which the Bishop of New Zealand enjoyed, said
the right hon. gentleman was mistaken in supposing that
this was the first year the sum of 6001. was omitted from
this vote. The 6001 was voted up to 1852, but in conse- Inv.„Aintctcoei
