PARLIAMENTARY SUMMARY.

In the LORDS' last night, after the presentation of a great
many pcqitior.s on various subjects, the Cheltenham and Great
Western Railway Bill was read a second time. The Marquis
of Londonderry, in reference to Railroad Bills, said that in
several of them frauds had been practised. Lord Minto stated,
in answer to an inquiry from the Earl of Hardwicke, that the
Naval College at Portsmouth was to be suppressed, and that
the means by which naval architecture could be taught were
now umier the consideration of Government. The Archbishop
of Canterbury's Bill, relating to benefices, pluralities, &c., after
a few words from Lord Ashburton and the Bishop of London,
was read a second time. The Mutiny Bill was also read a
second time. _ _

In the Comm°Ns', there was considernble discussion on the
Dublin. Steam Packet Company Bill. It was negatived by a
majority of 174 over 120. In reference to the size of News-
papers, it was stated by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, that
he hoped to include the largest sized sheet for a penny, and
said that he should give an opportunity to those who wished
to publish a half sheet extra to do so for three half-pence, and
a double sheet for twopence. The remainder of the sitting
was occupied by an interesting discussion en Mr. Harvey's
motion for a Revision of the Pension List. The motion was
lost on a division, the numbers being 146 for, and 216 against
it, making a majority of 70. We have made some remarks on
this subject elsewhere, and have only room now to refer to the
speech of the Hon. Member for Southwark. It will amply
repay perusal by the amusement and instruction it affords.
