CORPORAL PUNISHMENT.

Mr. HUME moved for certain orders respecting the cor-
poral punishment of Europeans and natives in British India, and
also a return of the number of prisoners who suffered corporal
punishment in the different military prisons in England,
Ireland, and Scotland.—Agreed to.
The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and the
House adjourned at six o'clock.

COMMISSION OF ESCHEAT, LONDON.—SEIZURE OF THE
ESTATE or AN ALIEN. —This afternoon a Commission of
Essheat was opened by Messrs. Waddington, Pollock, and
Manic., at the Secondaries' Office, Basinghall-street, to ascer-
tain' whether Mrs. Amelia Susan Maria Mayes was or was
not an alien, and if she was, of what property she was pos-
sessed in the City of London. The facts were these :—Thelady
is the natural daughter of Mr. Jens Wolff, who was formerly
the Danish Consul in London, and was born at Paris of a Mrs.
Tovey, whom Mr. Wolff afterwards married. Mr. Wolff
made a will, bequeathing property in London, Midllesex, and
Surrey, to his son, and after his death tl his daughter, Mrs.
Mayes, who resided abroad, and was married to an officer in
the Belgian army. The property having fallen to her for
her life, the Learned Commissioner said it became escheated
to the Crown, as Mrs. Mayes being illegitimate and born
abroad was not a British subject. The Crown, therefore, had
a right to take to it; and would no doubt, as it always did,
act with liberality and justice to the parties interested,
these proceedings being chiefly for the protection of the pro-
perty. The jury found that the property was of the value of
401. per annum, within the jurisdiction of the Sheriffs of
London. _ _ _ _

DISCOVERY OF A NEW SEAM OF COAL.—On Monday
last, rejoicings on an extensive scale took place at Talk-o'-
th'-Hill, to celebrate the discovery of a new and valuable
seam of coal upon the es'ate of R. E. Heathcote, Esq.,
situate in that parish. The coal is called the Bamford coal,
and workmen had been employed in search of the vein for
the last two years and a-half: It was finally discovered
about 300 yards from the surface, underneath a bed of
stone, about 25 feet in thickness. This source of additional
wealth to the proprietor, and additional employment for the
working classes, is a matter of sincere congratulation ; and
the " find" was accordingly publicly notified by the roasting
of a whole sheep, and the hind quarter of a fine ox ; these
substantials, with a barrel of " October," were distributed to
the workmen and the tenantry ; feux de joie were discharged,
and the greatest enthusiasm and goodwill prevailed through-
out the day.—Staffordshire Mercury

lONDON, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 12, 1846,

Contrary to the established usages of Parliament,
an explanation has occurred simultaneously with the
first reading of the Sugar Duties Bill in the House of
Peers. If employed as a precedent, this innovation
might undoubtedly cause no inconsiderable confusion
to the future deliberations of their Lordships, but,
prefaced as it was by a distinct apology, that explana-
tion cannot but tend to the satisfaction of an anxious
people, and the convenience of a jaded Parliament.
On introducing this measure on Monday, the Earl of
CLARENDON took a most felicitous survey of the
question, demonstrating by lucid arguments and un-
answerable statistics the necessity of some immediate

FLOGGING IN THE ARMY AND NAVY.
Dr. BOWRING presented a petition from the inhabitants
of Hounslow against the practice of flogging in the British
army and navy. The petitioners stated, that in their opinion
the character of the British soldier was lowered by the bar-
barous practice ; that it was foreign to the character of the
British nation, and alien to the principles of religion ; and
therefore they besought the House immediately to abolish the
disgusting practice. He cordially concurred in the prayer of
the petitioners.

AUG. s.—His Majesty theing it et-

pected to return to the Hague in eight or ten days, and
utter that to make a journey to Silesia.
To give an idea of the great coneeirse of people y
yesterday at Scheveningen, we will mart: i6n that 8,000
persons were conveyed thither by 03. stage-coaches : I
and omnibuses, and that the number4dt private jartil
riages were estimated at 600. To-day is he 18thritt1
niversary of the birthday of the Princess Wilhelmenia,

The last accounts from the East Indies to the end of
April, state that the sickness which had so long pre-
vailed among the European inhabitants of Amboyna
had abated, and though fevers were still prevalent, the
number of patients diminished, and deaths were of rare
occurrence.

In the dominion of the Sultan of Sumanap, in the
island of Madure, a violent sickness had attacked 4,000
persons, chiefly inhabitants on the coast, of vshoin 629
were carried off by it. A rapid change for the better
had taken place.
In the month of March, ten pirate vessels, supposed
to belong to one of the Soloe islands, appeared off the
island of Kangeaa, east of Madura. The pirates landed
and killed or carried off several persons. The chief of
the island quickly assembled an armed force, but was
unable to fall in with them.

Four native.: trading vessels were captured near Go-
rontalo, in the island of Celebes, by six pirate vessels,
supposed to be Tabellorese.
It seems that the want of ships to convey the troops,
occasioned by the late arrival of the merchantmen ex-
p2cted from the Netherlanls, was one cause of the delay
of the expedition against Bali.
ARNFIEDI, AUG. s.—Just as we were going to press,

Belgium), and that 30,000 persons lost their lives.
We hop° that this melancholy statement will not be
confirmed.—Antheint Courant.

The Hawkishlad says, in copying this paragraph, we
must add that none of our German correspondents men-

GUIANA.

Mr. G. BERKELEY inquired whether it was the inten-
tion of her Majesty's Ministers to take advantage of the
recent arrangements made by the Government to promote the
immigration of free labourers between British Guiana or the
West Indian colonies and the free states of Africa? He also
wished to know whether there would be any objection on the
part of the Government to promote free emigration to Guiana
after the new duties came into operation.
Lord JOHN RUSSELL, who was very indistinctly
heard in the gallery, said he had already stated that
there was every desire on the part of the Government
to promote immigration from the coast of Africa to
Guiana, but there was considerable difficulty in carrying out
such an object, and of limiting the numbers. Since his Noble,

DEBATE ON T EIE SUGAR DUTIES.
The Bishop of OXFORD was desirous to draw the attention
of their Lordships to a matter personal to himself, though it
was not wholly personal to himself. He alluded to the unusual
course adopted last night with respect to the sugar duties in
taking the debate on the first, instead of the second reading
of that measure. He was entirely ignorant of that arrange-
ment, and the consequence was that the debate went forth
to the public without his having taken any part in it, although
it was his determination to have done so. As far as their Lord-
ships were concerned, his absence might not be of much con-
. sequence, but he considered that such a departure trout, the
ordinary course was a personal injustice to himself, as he was
most desirous to have had an opportunity of entering his
protest against the measure. He said he was anxious to take
that opportunity y of sain tht somethin like an understand-
ing having been come to, that there wculdg be no further debate
on the second reading, he, being no party to that agreement,
could not be bound by any such agreement. He said he did
not stand alone • he had been requested to mention this on
behalf of the Right Rev. Prelate the Bishop of London, who
was equally ignorant of any arrangement, though he was
resent at an early part of the evening last night.
The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said no.hing could be
further from the intentions of Noble Lords en that side the
House than to take any course which would exclude any Noble
Lord from taking part in the debates.
erstandin
Lord BROUGHAM—There was no und g.
The Marquis of L A N SD()
WNE said there was a common
consent that the whole business on the Bill should be opened
on the first readin,r; but it was not intended thereby to ex-
clude any party who thought proper to re-open the debate on
the second reading.
The Bishop of OXFORD said he did not mean that he
supposed it had been the intention of Noble Lords to exclude
any, but he lamented that he, and others with him, not being
privy to that arrangement, had been excluded from taking part
in the discussion.
Lord BROUGHAM said that no one suffered more than he
did, having come 300 miles to attend the House a week earlier
than he intended; but at the same time he felt the arrange..
meta to be a great convenience at that time of the session,
when many of their Lordships were leaving for the country,
but he felt nothing more than the absence of the Right Ilan, i
Prelate from the debate._.That the name of Wilberforce should

be left out in a debate on slavery and the slave trade was
unusual, and anything but agreeable to them.

table the minutes of the Committee of the Privy Council on
Education, also the sixth report of the Commission on the

THIRD ALLEGATION.

That the treatment pursued towards prisoners has led
to suicides in the prison to a considerable extent ;
the names of three individuals were given who committed
suicide in consequence of the cruel treatment which
they had received ; indeed he might say that there were
four who had destroyed themselves in their cells since
the present governor had gone there. But that was not
all, he was prepared to prove that twelve others had
made the attempt to commit suicide, and were only
saved by the vigilance of the officer.
The inspectors have examined the records of the pri-
son relating both to the suicides and the attempts at sui-
cide, and have ascertained that of the four prisoners
who have committed suicide, only one had been sub-
jected to punishment of any kind, namely, William
Pearson, who had been confined in a dark cell for
three days on bread and water, for violent and muti-
nous conduct, and for disobedience of orders in refu•
sing, with an oath, to repick oakum, and for using
insolent and offensive lsnguage towards Supervisor
Lawrence. There had been no case of corporal punish-
ment during the time he was in the prison, and up to
that period there had not been-a single case of corporal
punishment during the time that Captain Groves was
governor.
With reference to this prisoner, the court before which
he was tried, in passing sentence, had observed that they
would not be responsible fiir the consequences if they
allowed such a hardened off.nder, nursed in crime, ever
to return to this country.
Charles Shipwerth, twenty-two years of age, sentenced
for life for arson, was received into this prison on the
10th of June, ant: destroyed himself by hanging
four days afterwards. This man, during the four days
that he was in prison, between his reception and the act
which terminated his lite, was under great depression of
spirits, and strongly protested•his innocence of the crime
with which he was charged, having said that he was
going to suffer for a cime that h.' had never committed.
The prisoner never was subjected to punishment of any
kind.

Thomas Bentley, thirty-two years of age, was re-
ceived into the prison on the 12th of August, 1844,
under sentence of t even years' transportation for stealing
rabbits, and destroyed himself on the following day; on
the ni,;bt of the 13th, or the morning of the 14th
August ; he never was subject to punishment of any
kind, or cognisant of it in the ease of others. _ _ _

Thomas I'erry, twenty-five years of age, convicted of
burglary, and sentenced for fifteen years, was. received
on the 25th of August, 1845 ; he destroyed himself on
the 29th of October in the same year. He was never
subjected to punishment of any kind himself, or wit•
nessed corporal punishment in others.

COMMONS INCLOSURE (No. 3) BILL.

This Bill then went through Committee, and was ordered
o be read a third time on Thursday next.
CONTAGIOUS DISEASES PREVENTION BILL.

The House having resolved itself into Committee on this
Bill,

Lord GR ANVILLE SOMERSET complained that the
powers propo.ed to be given by it to the Secretary of State and
the corporations of towns were toe summary and exclusive.
Lord MORPETH said that no danger need be ap-
prehended by any party from the exercise of
those powers ; they were, in fact, such as were absolutely ne-
cessary for the health of the people,
Mr. BERNAL begged to call the attention of his Noble
Friend (Lord Morpeth) to a point in connexion with this ques-
tion. Whilst they were all talking of improving the health of
towns, within a mile from the very house within which they
were sitting, there was a large sewer pouring its filthy
strerms into the river Thames, and yet there was not
the slightest covering over it, and the people of
that neighbourhood were suffering from the sickness and
contagion arising from it.—( Hear, hear.) And there were
several such sewers in and around the metropolis. Now he
wanted to know whose province it was to remedy this state of
things ?—( Hear, hear.) Was it that of the Commis-
missioners of Sewers, the surveyor of the district, or were
the people of such unhealthy districts to be left to the last re-
source of indicting the local authorities, for having suffered the
continuance of such nuisances?

Mr. WAKLEY having condemned the present imperfect
sewage system in large towns.
Lord MORPETH said that the nuisances complained of
could be removed by a very summary process, which was
afforded by the present law.
Mr. SHEIL confirmed the statement of the Hon. Member
as to the sewer in Westminster. He was so struck with the
odious appearance of the sewer in the neighbourhood of
Shaftesbury-terrace, that he went from house to house
for the purpose of inquiring whether, in their
opinion they suffered anything from the nuisance, and they
stated that it was most prejudicial to their health.—(Hear. )
After a few further observations from different Members, the
Bill went through Committee, the report was brought up, and
the Bill ordered to be re-committed en Thursday.
