Mr. WODEIIOUSE moved for a return of the ap-
portionment of the land-tax quotas in the several districts
of England and Wales, and in Scotland, arranged ac-
cording to counties; showing the rate per pound in the
value of real property assessed to property-tax
in 1842; appending to each county the average
rate in the pound at which the land-tax is
charged in the several cities, boroughs, and towns,
according to the form adopted in the papers delivered in
by J. Wood, Esq., chairman of the Board of Excise,
when examined before a Committee of the House of

CANADA.

We find the following in the Niagara Chronicle
of July 12 :
"In consequence of some disturbance being antici-
pated at St. Catharine's to-day, the authorities of that
town have sworn in a great number of special con-
stables, and Mr. Foley arrived here last evening with a
requisition for troops, to which Colonel Muter at once
acceded, and sent off forty men to assist in preserving
the peace. The Orangemen, it seems, have resolved to
dine together, and this a large body of labourers on the
canal bad announced their intention to prevent,"
The Montreal Herald of Saturday has the follow-
ing _ _

11 Telegraphic dispatches speak of disturbances of a
serious character in Hamilton and St. Catharine's. In
the former place, reports say, people were arming, and
in St. Catharine's it was reported that one man was
killed, and several were seriously hurt."

MONTREAL, JULY 16.—The weather to-day has
been quite damp and cold. There have been no cholera
returns handed in and it is, therefore, impossible to
give a report. It is supposed, however, to be
gaining ground.
In Quebec the disease is said to be on the decrease.

EVENING, JULY SO, 1849,

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF COMMONS, July 28.
CEYLON.
(Continw,d from our Third Edition of Saturday.)

M. DISRAELI said it was right they should Under-
stand how matters stood. He understood the Govern-
ment to consent to do what their representative on the
Committee lied refused to do.—(Hear, hear.)
Li,rd J. RUSSELL said he understood quite the con-
trary. His Hon. Friend the Under-S. cretary was quite
willing to agree to the proposition of the Hun. Member
tor Beverley.
Mr. DISRAELI said he understood the proposition of
the Hon. Member for Beverley in quite a different light
from the Noble Lord. It was very important that this
matter should be rightly understood.
Lord J. RUSSELL--I have before stated that what
we propose is, that the Committee should re-assemble
and point out what witnesses they think it necessary to
have examined next year; and at the meeting of Parlia-
ment next session, these witnesses should be examined.
Mr. DISRAELI—That is precisely the proposition
made in Committee, to which the Under-Secretary re-
fused to accede.—(Hear, hear.)
Mr. lIUME said it was of great importance that both
sides should be prepared for the re-appointment of the
Committee, and with that view that the facts already
ascertained should be made known to the public. He,
therefore, begged to move, pursuant to the notice which
he had given, that the evidence taken before the Seltct
Committee be laid before the House.

Lord J. RUSSELL thought the motion was not one
that could be agreed to, after the motion of the Hon.
Member for Inverness had been negatived.
Mr. HUME said he would withdraw the motion for the
present, but would bring it forward again_on Tuesday.

RATING OF SMALL TENEMENTS.

Mr. HALSEY obtained leave to bring inaßill to
amend the law relating to small tenements.

The 1:i11 was read afirst time. •
The House then adjourned until Tuesday.

THE HAGUE, JULY 27.—At the opening of the
sitting of the Secor.id. Chamber of the States General
on the 25th, the 51thister for the Colonies communi-
cated an outline of the official report transmitted by
General Micinul-s,
.Commander-in-Chief of the ex-
pedition against Kali. He stated that the inhabitants
of Boloing bad submitted to the Netherlands flag,
and had expelled their Raja ; that the Raja of
Kurang Assam, iu the Island of Bali, had been as-
sassinated by his subjects, who bad at length sub-
mitted to the Dutch Government; that the Dutch
troops had received a reinforcement of 4,000 native
troops from some of the Rajas, and were on the
point of marchirg to Kong-klong. The Minister
added, that the next overland mail would probably
bring the result of the favourable termination of the
war, and an arrangement respecting the settlement of
the new acquisition ; but he did not state the intention
of the Netherlands Government respecting it.
The members of the First Chamber of the States
General are convoked for Thursday, the 2d August.

HUNGARY.

Whatever ultimate importance may grow out of
the success of the most reprehensible attack of the
French on Rome, the A ustro•Russian invasion of
Hungary is at present the subject of pre-eminent
interest. It is no longer a question of whether the old
tyranny of Austria could be patched up and het upon
its legs again, whereby, according to the apprehension
of some, that phantom for which we have squandered
so many millions—the balance of power in Europe
—could be maintained ; but whether Russia shall
succeed in overwhelming the liberties of a large por-
tion of civilized Europe with a torrent of the most
disgusting and atrocious brute force. The suc-
cess of Russia in Hungary would place all the
so-called dominions of Austria, and in all pro-

AUSTRIA and HUNGARY.

The Vienna papers publish the proclamation
which the Austrian Commander- in - Chief, General
Ilaynau, has addressed to the inhabitants of Pesth, on
the occasion of his leaving them to hasten to the
rescue of the Ban of Croatia :

" TO THE INHABITANTS OF BUDA AND PESTH.
After several victories, which the Imperial arms have
obtained over those of the traitors, we are again among
you. We have again planted the Imperial standard on
your steeples. But our feelings are far different from
what they. were when we left you a short time ago.
Doomed to death is every person, no matter of what
rank or sex—doomed to instant death, on the spot of the
crime, is every one who dares to assist the cause of the
rebels, by words, or by deeds, or by revolutionary dress;
doomed to instant death is every one who dares to insult
any of my soldiers, or of those of our allies; doomed to
instant death is every one who enters into traitorous
oommuaication with the enemies of the Crown, or who
nialicioraly presumes by rumours to assist the rebellion,
or to conceal weapons."

CENTRAL GERMANY,
The Kolner Zeitung states that his Highness the
Regent John was expected to arrive at Frankfort on
the 26th of August. His Highness is to be accom-
panied by an Austrian army of 10,000 men.
The same paper gives a list of the sums which the
various states of Germany are still owing to the
Central Power. The whole of the sums amount to
8,894,000 florins, of which Austria owes 4,194,000
florins ; Prussia, 1,800,000 ; Bavaria, 1,296,000;
Wurtemberg, 149,000 ; Hanover, 52,000; and
Saxony, 465,000 florins.

BADEN.

The German papers give the names of the leaders
of the Badish insurrection that have been captured at
Rastadt. Among them are—Messrs. Tiedmann,
Anneke, Biedenfeld, Corvin, Boning, Welker, Reiter,
and Elsenhaus. A court-martial of Prussian officers
was preparing to sit on the 20th inst. The sentences
of this court were to be executed immediately after
judgment had been given.
Letters from Manheim state that that city is the
scene of disgraceful affrays between the Prussian and
Bavarian soldiers.

POLAND.

Letters from Warsaw, of the 25th instant, in the
German papers, announce the arrival in that city of
his Majesty the Czar, accompanied by Count Orloff.

TURKEY. -
The Deutsche Allgemeine Zeitung has letters from
Constantinople of the 11th inst., stating that the re-
lations of Turkey with Hungary are beginning to
assume a more friendly character than they have
hitherto had. A large Turkish army is being con-
centrated between Semlin and Orshova to protect the
frontier against the Imperialist armies, and to disarm
the insurgent Bosnians.

and finances of the island; and also of any petitions or
memorials of the inhabitants of that island, and of the

jesty or the Secretary of State, on the same subjects;

employed.—Agreed to.
SERVICES IN CHURCHES IN WALES.
Mr. J. WILLIAMS said five months ago he moved
for a return of the services in the Protestant churches of
Wales, distinguishing those performed in Welch and
those in English; part of the return had been furnished,
but that with respect to St. David's and Bangor had not
been furnished. What was the cause of this?
Mr. C. LEWIS was understood to say that they had
not been completed.

very probable the Ex-KING of the FRENCH will
honour this ball with his presence.
One of the first architects of Ghent expired on

Letters from Berne announce that the Swiss Con-
federation have ordered a levy of 28,000 men to be

siderable body of Prussian troops being assembled
on the German line in the direction of Switzerland.

HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.

Mdlle. Parodi appeared last evening, in the character
of Leonora, in I)uuizetti's opera La Favorita, and it is
not too much to say that those who have not seen Mdll-.
Parodi in Leonora have not seen the opera. Former
representatives of this character have been content to
sing the music of Dimizetti more or less correctly—to
appear in a succession of various costumes, and to act
the character either not at all, or as that of a
mere walking lady. They have been either unable
or afraid to sound the depths of passion which lie beneath
the surface of the character, and to represent Leonora
as she really is, is being of intense feeling, energetic will,
ungovernable impulses, tint yet who loves—loves ardently,
impassionedly, loves as only the children of the South
can love—with all her soul, and all her heart, and all her
mind, and all her strength. Those depths of passion have,
however, been sounded by Parodi; and her Leonora is
one of the most wonderful pieces of impassioned acting
ever seen. Her countenance expresses Each change of
passion in the most marvellous manner, and her. voice is
at times choked as it were by emotion. Her opening
scene with Fernando was a delightful representation of
the fondest and most impassioned love, and then her
scent, when informed that Fernando is to be
her husband, was superb. Never has the con-
flict of contending passions been more artistically
represented; and in the finale to the tbird act, when
Fernando breaks his sword and renounces his allegiance,
she seemed the impersonation of, the wildest horror and
despair. The last scene in the cloister was a perfect
triumph of art. Who could see the heart-broken creature
listening to the voice of her lover as he takes the
monastic vows—who could see her fall at his fe. t in
abject supplication—who could see her die in his
arms without feeling for her and him, and cursing the
Kiug who had been the cause of all this misery? Mdlle.
Parodi has now vindicated her right to the throne of
lyric tragedy. She is, without exception, the greatest
actress on the stage; she has made the character of
Leonora, and with it, that of the opera, which will hence-
forth be La Favour ita not in name only, but in deed and
in truth. She was called on several times during
the course of the performance, and at tho con-
clusion she was three times called on, and on each
occasion bouquets were showered on her from all parts
of the house. The cast of the opera was exceedingly
strong—Gardoni, who was in excellent voice, was the
Fernando, Co:Qui Vie Alfonso, and Lablache the Monk
Balthazar. The house was very well attended.

MRS. TROLLOPE'S NEW NOVSL.—TIIE LOT-
TERY OF MARRlAGE.—Marriage, being the great end
and aim of feminine existence, naturally forms a promi-
nent feature in the story of every heroine, but our
great artist iu pen and ink, Mrs. Trollope, has given. it,
in her new work, the importance it deserves, by making
it a subject instead of a feature. She cleverly produces
it in every light in which it can be exhibited, and brings
forward its objects, advantages, and results with v.
graphic force that is no less instructive thnn amusing. In
The Lottery of Marriage" Mrs. Trollope has produced
a picture of our social system full of new, and striking
portraits, in a narrative that for felicity of construction.
and originality of idea, equals the most successful of her
former efforts.—Eveningpaper.
THE ARCTIC EXPEDITION.—Letters for her Ma-
jesty's ships Erebus and Terror, Enterprise and Invest'
gator, employed upon the Arctic Expeditions, will be in
time to be forwarded by the North Star, if sent to the
Secretary of the Admiralty on or before Saturday the
ith of May.

The Prussian Stoats Anzirger of the 28th pub:ishes
the following:— •
" From the occurrences yesterday in the Donhof•
Plata and thereabouts, in consequence of which the sol-
diers had to use their arms with energy, it seems that a
part of the inhabitants entertain the erroneous idea that
the state of siege exists ❑o longer in Berlin and within
a radius of eight miles. I take, therefore, this occasion
to declare that the state of siege is by no means removed,
but is still in full force.—Berlin, April 28th, 1849.

THE HAGUE, MAY I.—The Ambassador of her
Britannic Majesty yesterday had the honour of being
admitted to an audience with the KING, at which he
delivered his credentials. He was received with the
usual formalities.
Baron B. MARCONAY, the Chamberlain of the
Grand Duke of SAXONY, also had the honour of
being presented to the KING.
It is generally reported that it is his MAJESTY'S
intention to give public audiences, according to the
example of his grandfather. This will gain him
great popularity. His MAJESTY continues to consult',
his uncle, Prince FREDERICK, on all matters of busi-
ness. The character of Prince Fasnalticic has
always been held in the highest esteem and unbounded
respect.
His MAJESTY, a few days since, was taking his
daily walk in a wood, between eight and nine o'clock
in the morning, when he saw one of the stable boys
thrown from his horse and quite unable to rise. The
KING instantly hurried up to him, and with the as-
sistance of his aid-de-camp carried the young lad to
a small public-house not far off, where he desired
that every attention should be paid to him.
Letters from St. Petersburgh speak of new modifi-
cations projected by the Russian Government in the
tariff of import duties on sugar. Contrary to the
present system, refined sugar in loaves is to be ad-
mitted at a higher rate, the amount of which is how-
ever not yet fixed. Nor is it stated at what time the
measure will come into operation, but it is generally
expected that it will be carried into effect at the
opening of the navigation this year.
