INLAND REVENUE OFFICERS.

Lord ELCHO asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer
whether, having reference to the increased duties of ordi-
nary Inland Revenue officers, and to a supposed under-
standing come to on the subject, it was intended to
increase their salaries; and if so, from what time the in-
crease would date.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said an increase of
clerks he hoped would be required by the recent tame.
tions, and therefore they would havc to reconsider the
whole matter.

FRENO4 DEFUBLICAN DEMONSTRATION IN
HYDE PARK.

Genetal FORESTER asked the Secretary of State whether
he had seen the notice in the newspapers on this subject
from the sympathisers with M. Flewerks, and whether the
demonstratiort was to he permitted on Sunday next.
Mr. Biztyys said he had seen the paragraph, and
that he believed that the scheme for the demonstration arose
from the supposition that a demand had been made for the
extradition of Gustave Flourens and some other French
refugees by the French Government. He whiled therefore to
take that opportunity of stating that neither officially or
privately, and neither directly or indirectly had Lard Cla-
rendon received any communisation from the French Go-
vernment on the subject. Seeing that there was no founda-
tion for such a belief, he ho ed that no attempt would be
made at a demonstration, but if the meeting was held care
would be taken to pr serve peace and order.
