IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF LORDS, May 25.

Their rdships assembled at Five o'clock.
The Earl of Sr. GERMANS presented several peti-
tions in favour of the Bill for the protection of women.
The Bishop of NORWICH presented several petitions
with a similar prayer. He wished to impress upon their
Lordships the necessity of adopting some legislative
measure on the subject, and he was persuaded they
might introduce an efficient measure to put a stop to
the horrible trade in prostitution, which was a disgrace
to a civlz community.
M. MAI,TZONI.—THE EXCURSION TO PARIS.
Lord BUOUGHAN drew the attention of their Lord-
ships to a letter signed " Manzoni," which appeared in
the Terrier, challenging him and other Noble Lords to
fight a duel. He had. received a letter from M. Manzoni,
stating that he knew nothing of the letter, and he be-
lievt d must have been inserted by inadvertence. He
thought it due to M. Manzoni to make this statement.
He would also allude to the newly projected visit of the
English to Paris. He wished it to be distinctly
understood that this was merely a private visit. He
wished again to express his opinion that no communica-
tion could take place between the two nations except
officially, and he hoped no official countenance would be
given to the persons intending to visit Paris.
The Marquis of BRE ADALBANE thought we bad
nothing to do with the manner in which the French Go-
vernment might receive the visitors to Paris. Her Ma-
jesty's subjects had a right to go where they liked. .
Lord BROUGHAM had never said a word to present
her Majesty's subjects from going over to France,
or against any good reception that might be given to
them. If the French could afford to treat them, the
more they feted the better, provided they conducted
themselves properly.
After a few words from the Earl of MOUNT-
CASHEL,

Lord gEDESDALE said that in his opinion these
visits ought to be discouraged. Had the visit of the
French National Guards to this country taken place in
the March of last year instead of in the summer, it might
have been attended with the most disastrous effects.

CANADA.
Earl GREY presented papers relating to Canada.
