FELONY BILL.

This bill, the object of which is to amend the law with
respect to the forfeiture of the property of felons, and
which was introduced in the other House by Mr. C.
Forster, was read a second time.
NORWICH VOTERS' DISFRANCHISEMENT
BILL.

The House went into committee on this bill.

On clause 2 being proposed, Lord CAIRNS moved an
amendment to extend the exceptions set out in the clause
to the name of Mr. Arthur Bignold, as the evidence
brought forward to show that he was implicated in the
corrupt practices that took place at the late election was
less than that upon which Mr. Stracey was acquitted.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said he had looked into the
case of Mr. Bignold, and he did not think the evidence
was brought up to conviction, and therefore he would net
object to the proposition.
The other clauses were agreed to, and the bill was re-
ported with one amendment.

The Churchwardens' Liability Bill passed through com-
mittee and was reported with amendments.
On the motion for going into committee on the Bridg-
water and Beverley Disfranchisement bill,
Lord FAVERSHAM thought the bill a very severe one,
and asked whether any arrangement had been made with
respect to the disposal of the vacant seats.
Earl GRANVILLE said he was unable to answer the ques-
tion, and then their lordships resolved themselves into
committee on the bill, which was afterwards reported
with amendments.
In reply to Lord Redesdale,

The LORD CHANCELLOR said with respect to the Real
Estate Succession Bill it was intended to go on with it at
the earliest opportunity.

Their lordships adjourned at five minutes past seven
until Monday week.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.—TUESDAY.
The Speaker took the chair at five minutes past two
o'clock.

ALLEGED MURDER IN STEPNEY.

Last evening Mr Humphreys held an inquest at the
Rising Sun Tavern, Sidney-street, Stepney, to inquire into
the death of Mrs Sarah Redhead ; the deceased was 51 years
of age.
In opening the inquiry the Coroner read a 1 tter, sent
by Ellen Redheal, who is a domestic servant at an
hotel i❑ Piccadilly, to her brother, the young man who
is in custody, charged, on his own confession, with
the murder of the deceased, who was his stepmother.
It was put in with the view of showing that there was
a misunderstanding in the family with regard to a young
ma❑ who was paying his attentions to the writer of the
letter. •

The following evidence was taken :
Thomas Ashton, 83, Sidney-street, deposed that be
knew the deceased woman, Sarah Redhead. She was the
second wife of James Redhead, the steward of a ship now
on its way from China to England. She lived with her step-
son, William Redhead He was a member of be 7th Tower
Hamlets Rifle Corps. At half-past two o'clock on Monday
afternoo last witness was at borne in his front room, and
he heard fire-arms go off, and, believing it was a man
who lived next door, he went to the front door for the
purpose of speaking to his neighbour, and saw William Red-
head run out.
Mary Ann Morris, a married woman, who occupied the
top front room of the house No. 80, Sidney-street, said
that bho knew the deceased well, having resided in the
house twelve months. The deceased had been married
ten months. She bad a stepson about eighteen years of
age. He was employed by a wine merchant near London-
bridge. She had never heard the deceased and her stt p-
son quarrel. They appeared to live on the best of terms.
He was not a religious young man. He used to laugh when
religion was talked about. Ho went out every day but
Monday. On Monday afternoon he shut, himself up in his
room and ;pulled down the blinds. About half-past two
o'clock witness beard the report of a gun. She was then
11,t the top of the staircase, and on looking down saw the
body of the deceased lying at the foot of the stairs. She
saw the stepson.leave the house with the rifle in his hand
and smoke coming out of the muzzle.
After evidence to the same effect by another witness,
Mr. Philip Page made a statement with regard to William
Redhead. It was to the effect that on Saturday he was
present at the ball practice of his corps. Twenty rounds
of ball cartridge were served out, and Redhead told the
witness he had used all his. Volunteers were not allowed
to take unused ball cartridge home with them. Redhead
was a good shot, and a very steady young man.
The inquiry was adjourned until after the post-um:tem
examination.

SPIRIT OF THE PRESS.

THE SESSION OF 1870.

The Times observes that the session has recelved the
second of its Three Warnings, and there is some reason
to hope that the lesson of the event will not be neg-
lected. The arrival of Easter was the first reminder that
the time for work was slipping away, and now Whit-
suntide is upon us impressing the same truth. It is certain
that the break of Easter did agreat deal of good. Up to that
time the progress of business had been alarmingly slow.
But with the re-assembling of Parliament after the
Easter holydays a new spirit was manifested. The House of
Commons has been sedulous in the despatch of business.
Much unfinished work still remains before Parliament,
and it is evident that a great part of it will not be finished
this session, but a methodical spirit has been developed.
With all drawbacks the session will not be unfruitful.
It will have settled the greatest social difficulty of Ireland,
and have grappled, not unsuccessfully, with the greatest
social evil of England ; and if it achieved no more than
this, it would amply deserve to rank with equal honour by
the side of its elder sister of 1869.

FLORENCE, May 30, Evening.
In to-day's sitting of the Chamber of Deputies a Pro-
posal of Signors Querzoni and Cortese was accepted I).Y
Signor Lanza, requesting the Government within a Yet"'
to bring forward a scheme for the reorganisation of the

army.
Signor Millana, of the Left, expressed his belief that the
landed proprietors were too heavily taxed, and that it
IS
necessary to establish equality between their position a'
that of the capitalist by reducing the rent, thus equalising
the burdens on property and capital. Signor Lanza
strongly opposed the idea of reducing the rent, which
would be fatal to the general interests of the country'
He denied, moreover, that landed proprietors were snore
heavily burdened than capitalists.
The Diritto states that the Government has resolved ill'
mediately to present to the Chamber a bill to provide Of
the construction of the St. Gothard Railway.

A CABINET SECRET.

A correspondence of the New York Times, dated Wash-
ington, Mayl6th, says :—"Mrs. Grant has sent out about
one hundred special invitations to a lunch and strawberry
party at half-past one o'clock to-morrow. At three
o'clock she gives her regular reception. When the Presi-
dent was interrogated why he had a special Cabinet meet-
ing to-day instead of to-morrow, he said he wanted the
Cabinet to take strawberries and cream with Mrs. Grant
and himself to-morrow, and so he called their portfolios
to-day instead. The curious reporters who trotted all the
afternoon to find out the occasion of the special meeting
are not any wiser in consequence, and the subject remail!s
one of the numerous well-kept secrets of Grant and h's
Cabinet.

STAIUE OF LORD PALMERSTON.

Yesterday the statue of Lord Palmerston,inWestminster
Abbey was unveiled in the presence of Earl Granville, the
Earl and Countess Shaftesbury, the Dean and Lady.
Augusta Stanley, Mr. and Mrs. Cowper-Temple, Sir
Robert Peel, Hon. Arthur Kinnaird, M.P., and several
other friends of the deceased statesman. The statue is
placed in the northern transept, and to the im-
mediate right of the spot where Lord Palmerston lies.
buried. The ceremony was of a very simple character.
Directly the party had arrived, the covering was removed,
and after viewing the figure for some minutes, the friends
left. As no announcement of the unveiling had been
made, there were only a few spectators. Mr. Jackson, the
sculptor, has executed his work with extraordinary
success.

NEWS FROM SLR J. YOUNG.

The most satisfactory tidings have been sent from the
Canadian frontier. Sir J. Young says that no further
atttack was expected, and that the Fenians were begging

their way home. Three of them were killed and-ten
wounded at }'reelingburgh, and they sustained the same
loss at Trout River. Their stores have been lost or nearly
destroyed.

Sir I lenry Bulwer's Speech ,of the 20th instant,
during the debate in the House of Commons in reference to
the Grook massacres, we aro glad to see has been just now
issued from the press as a 'separate publication. Brief,
though it was, it was as directly to the purpose, and as im-
pressive as any speech delivered in either House of Parlia-
ment in regard to that most lamentable catastrophe.

at the end of 25 minutes it bad almost entirely di,appeared.

THE SMALL-PDX IN PARIS

The epidemic of small-pox in Paris for the moment
takes precedence of political matters. Prince de la Tour
d'Auvergne is ill with it, though his condition is said to be
satisfactory, as the malady is following its regular course.
The Duke de Caumont la Force has also been attacked.
M. Jules Ferry, in the Legislative Body, on Monday, drew
the attention of the Government to the alarming progress of
the disease, which last week carried off 200 persons, and
which is still increasing. He demanded the introduction
of a system of gratuitous vaccination, the removal of the
smallpox patients from the hospitals in Paris to the
country, and a congress of medical men to consider the
means of arresting the epidemic. M. Chevandier de
Valdrome replied that the Government was anxiously
studying the question in the sense of M. Ferry's
proposals.

TYNE IMPROVEMENT BILL.

On the third reading of this bill.
Mr. EUSTACE SMITH moved that the order for the third
reading be discharged, and that the bill be re-committed
in order to reduce borrowing power to the amount
originally in the bill. It was a very dangerous precedent,
he contended, that any public body having the power of
borrowing and investing large sums of money should pro-
mote a bill which at the second reading should contain
limited powers, and when it went upstairs should involve
a sum fourtimes the original amount.
Mr. STEVENSON supported the third reading of the bill.
He said the alteration in the amount, increasing it from
£lOO,OOO .to £400,000 had been known for upwards of a
fortnight, and yet no action had been taken until Satur-
day last.
Mr. HEADLAM also supported the bill.
Mr. CowEN said that if the-bill asked for additional
taxation, the arguments of the member for Tynemouth
might have had some force, but the promoters of the
measure did not ask for anything beyond authority to
borrow money necesssay to carry out works for which
they had already Parliamentary powers to execute.

Mr. DODSON said it was a bill which it was desirable in
the interest of the public to pass. The course proposed
by the member for Tynemouth was very unusual. The
bill proposed to put an end to the dues now levied by the
Corporation of Newcastle on the shipping of the Tyne, on
terms which appeared to him to be very equitable.

Mr. SMITH said that after the expression of opinion
from the member for East Sussex he knew what the de-
cision of the House would be, and he should withdraw
his motion.
The bill was accordingly read a third time.

MANSION HOUSE BANQUET TO HER
MAJESTY'S JUDGES.

Last evening the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor and the
Lady Mayoress entertained Her Majesty's judges at a
grand banquet in the Egyptian Hall, Mansion House.and
The Lord Mayor proposed " The Army, Navp
Volunteers," which was responded to by General enne-
father, Amiral Sir H. Denham, and Colonel Warde re-
spectively.
The Lord Mayor, in proposing the toast of " Her Ma-
jesty's Judges," said that the annual banquet to the judges
was a reflection of the honour which the commercial sPirit
paid to the judicial administration of the law in this
country. Every Englishman felt that the administration
of justice in this country was a thing to be proud O.
(Hear, hear, and cheers.) There were few amongst then'
who could estimate the labour and painstaking of the
honest judge. Whilst the judges were anxious that the law
should be administered according to its letter, they were
also desirous that it should not be administered contrail'
to the true spirit in which it was framed. Such anxiety
in dealing out justice had maintained the high reputation
which the judicial bench enjoyed. (Cheers.)
The toast was warmly received.
Lord Chief Justice Bovill acknowledged the comPli"
ment, and said that the Lord Mayor had not inadequately
described the anxious duties which the judges had to per-
form, and the responsibility which rested upon thew.
The law of the country was administered with sound rea-
son, and in a manner which he hoped met with the aP
probation of the country. (Cheers.)
The Lord Mayor proposed " The Equity Judges," and
hoped that before long they would have a new toast
added to their list, viz., the fusion of law and equity.
(Hear, hear.)
Vice-Chancellor Malins, in responding, said that there
was as much distinction between law and equity as 13,e,;
tween the army and navy, and he trusted that it wow"
be long before their distinctive features were abandoned.
(Hear, hear.)
Lord Chief Justice Bovill proposed " The Health of,
the Lord Mayor" in complimentary terms and referred
in a genial manner to the fact that the rival governing,
powers of the metropolis were present in his lordship arid
the chairman of the Board of Works.

The toast was cordially drunk.
The Lord Mayor, in reply, said that it was a, mistake to sup,
pose that there was any antagonism between the Board 0,
Works and the city authorities. The only question was, that,
if two men rode upon the same horse one must ride in front and

THE DERBY DAY

The Derby Day,
i says the Telegraph, the most remark-
able of all days n the year, is here at last. It is the
" peculiar Wednesday " of which Mr. Gladstone lately
spoke with such good-humoured unction in the House of
Commons. The Premier can do a good many things, but
we defy him to keep in hand 650 great schoolboys who
are all resolved to break bounds and go out en masse
for a frolic. It is said that Mr. Gladstone may be
on the ground to-day not on the Hill, we will
not go so far as that—but certainly on the Grand Stand.
We sincerely hope Mr. Gladstone may look upon the
doings of " the ring " to-day, and see the gentlemen who
frequent that place of business at work. He would return
home, as the result of the experiment, a wiser, perhaps a
sadder, man. Certainly he would drive back full of doubt
whether betting could be entirely suppressed by law.
Besides, might he not have " taken the odds about the
winning horse ?

STATUE OF LORD PALMERSTON.

On Tuesday the statue of Lord Palmerston,inWestminster
Abbey was unveiled in the presence of Earl Granville, the
Earl and Countess Shaftesbury, the Dean and Lady
Augusta Stanley, Mr. and Mrs. Cowper-Temple, Sir
Robert Peel, Hon. Arthur Kinnaird, M.P., and several
other friends of the deceased statesman. The statue is
placed in the northern transept, and to the im-
mediate right of the spot where Lord Palmerston lies.
buried. The ceremony was of a very simple character.
Directly the party had) arrived, the covering was removed,
and after viewing the figure for some minutes, the friends
left. As no announcement of the unveiling had been
made, there were only a few spectators. Mr. Jackson, the
sculptor, has executed his work with extraordinary
success.

THE IRISH PRESS.

The Stand«rd thinks the Irish press is much to be
pitied for the failure of the Fenians in Canada. No
rapider countermarch is recorded in history than this of
the Irish Nemesis, who_came to revenge the wrongs of Erin
in battle line upon the Canadians. " No Fenian has pene-
trated a mile into Canada, or stood half an hour on Canadian
soil." This is very disheartening after all the sympathies
and good wishes which had been poured on O'Neill
and his braves by their friends in Ireland. What cruel
destiny is this which insists not only in confounding the
enterprises of the Fenian heroes, but in covering them
with ridicule? How are we to maintain the sentiment
proper to national heroism when within four-and-twenty
hours of the march of the patriots into Canada their chief
anxiety is found to be-touching the railway fare to their
homes? The Flag of Ireland, under the head of " an Irish
Nemesis " says that if England will only do justice to
Ireland Canada may rest in peace, and O'Neil's occupa-
tion's gone. " Until then the Nemesis will hang on
the heels of the Dominion." But this, by its own
sheaving. is a very Irish Nemesis, which hangs on
the heels of one people in order to be avenged on
another. If the Canadians had any share in pro-
ducing the wrongs of Ireland—if it were possible
for them to remedy those wrongs—we could understand
a Nemesis, even in the uncomely guise of a Fenian
general, hanging on the heels of the Dominion. But.
why Canada should be plundered because of something.
done by England—more especially why Canada should
be assailed by the American Irish for something done to
the home Irish—passes all ordinary understanding.

THE SMALL-PDX IN PARIS

The epidemic of small-pox in Paris for the moment
takes precedence of political matters. Prince de la Tour
d'Auvergne is ill with 4, though his condition is said to be
satisfactory, as the rciala;ii,is following its regular course.
The Duke de Caumont 1k Force has also been attacked.
M. Jules Ferry, in the Legislative Body, on Monday, drew
the attention of the Government to the alarming progress of
the disease, which last week carried off 200 persons, and
which is still increasing. He demanded the introduction
of a system of gratuitous vaccination, the removal of the
smallpox patients from the hospitals in Paris to the
country, and a congress of medical men to consider the
means of arresting the epidemic. M. Chevandier de
Valdrome replied that the Government was anxiously
studying the question in the sense of M. Ferry's
proposals.

DEATH ON THE ALPS.

An account of a shocking accident, which happened at
Lugano, by which a young Englishman named Royd, son
of the well-known banker of Rochdale, lost his life, is
given in a letter to the Times. The writer says : "Mr.
Royd had arrived at the Hotel du Parc with his uncle,
Mr. Smith, and others of his family, on the evening
of Wednesday, the 25th, and set out for
Monte Salvatore, accompanied by a sister and a
cousin. The long-continued hot weather has made
the grass very slippery, and the ill-fated young man
missed his footing, fell over the perpendicular precipices
of the mountain, and was killed, probably instantaneously.
The poor young ladies, heartbroken, spent some
hours with utmost peril to themselves, in searching
for his body. When found, one of the two re-
mained on the mountain to keep watch over the
corpse, while the other returned to Lugano for as-
sistancc. It was far in the night before the sorrow-
stricken girl reached the hotel, and about 1 a.m. a large
body of men with lanterns, and accompanied by a doctor,
started for the scene of the accident. They relieved the
solitary guardian of her agonising midnight watch, and
conveyed Mr. Royd's remains to the hotel.
The relatives are stunned with the suddenness
of the calamity ; but all that the most con-
siderate kindness can suggest is being done for
them by the proprietor of the hotel, M. 13411 a, and his
excellent wife. Singularly enough, Ascension Day is the
annual festa of the Monte Salvatore, and the mountain
would be thronged with many hundreds of people within
a few hours of the accident. It will be well if no fresh
calamity occurs. The mountains are beginning to claim
their yearly toll of human sacrifices very early this year."

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

THE DERBY DAY.

The departures of the Londoners for their annual holiday
on the Do rano at
.Epsom was quite as large to-day as it has
ever been, notwithstanding that the weather looked anything
but promising. Shortly before nine every kind of vehicle from
the aristocratic four-in-hand to the costermonger flat,began to
appear in the thoroughfares leading to the Surrey side of the
water. The route on the present occasion had to he varied,
as the works going on in the Kennington-road closed it to
those arriving from the Westminster-road, so Vaux-
hall-bridge became the great highway. The display
of hansoms in all the glory of sky-blue curtains, and the
colours of the favourite, was something more than usual ;
and as for the van parties, their name was legion. The
celebrated halting-place, the Elephant and Castle, was the
scene of mush excitement early in the morning, and from
the hilarious mirth that was exhibited by numbers of the
young sparks, who donned light dust-coat, white hats, and
blue veils, it became a matter of much doubt whether they
would be gratified by the sight of the race, as human nature
seemed hardly able to bear the constant refreshment to which
it was being favoured. However, all seemed to be in the:best
humour, and determined to enjoy themselves to the
highest degree. The sight-seers turned out in great num-
bers, as the road on either side for a long distance down
was densely occupied, and the joking that prevailed,
as some of the jovial themselves became " blocked," was
harmless, and rather more refined than usual The display
at the windows of the delightful villas boldering the Clap-
ham-road and on twards Tooting was perhaps more attrac-
tive to some persons than the road which we left at Tooting
Church, just as it was becoming almost blocked for traffic.
The railway stations at London-bridge and Waterloo were
also crowded from an early hour, the ordinary train ceasing
to run after 9.30. The Sonth-Western line from Waterloo
was the most largely patronised, as being " the most direct
course to the Downs."

The " specials" commenced running at 10 o'clock, and
continued to do so every quarter of an hour.
His Majesty the King of the Belgians, and their Royal
Highnesses the Prince and Princess of \Vales left Marl-
borough House, and travelled by road, en route for the
course, in two carriages and four. In attendance on the
illustrious party were the Countess of Morton, Lieutenant-
Colonel Teesdale, Count Van der Straten, M. Jules de Vaux,
&c. The Royal party was loudly cheered on their road to
Epsom.

The Other Place.

One of the most noticeable points in the debate
on the third reading of the Laud Bill. was the hint
thrown out by Mr. Hardy, that the measure might
be "improved" another place by the removal of
the anti-landlord provisions. Mr. Gladstone
thought this a "most ominous" remark, and plainly
intimated that " it is not possible for the Government to
hear the expression of that opinion without feeling
that any alteration of the principle of the bill in the
sense indicated by the right hon. gentleman would,
in our opinion, deprive it of all its force and
value." There may perhaps be a little trouble
on this point. The Standard is exceedingly
angry with the reply of the Premier, just as the
Liberal journals are dissatisfied with the indiscreet
remark of Mr. Hardy. If the measure fall through
this year, says the Standard, Mr. Gladstone will
have only himself to blame. Mr. llardy's remark
had an ugly ring, says the Telegraph. The peers will
think twice before they do anything very awkward,
intimates the Daily News. The " dictation "of Mr.
Gladstone is regarded by the Standard as insolent,
impertinent, and unwarranted. The peers, says the
Telegraph, cannot fail to appreciate the terrible con-
sequences of throwing out the bill.

NEWS FROM SIR J. YOUNG.

The most satisfactory tidings have been sent from the
Canadian frontier. Sir J. Young says that no further
atttack was expected, and that the Fenians were begging
their way home. Three of them were killed and ten
wounded at Freelingburgh, and they sustained the same
loss at Trout River. Their stores have been lost or nearly
destroyed.

Sir Henry Bulwer's Speech of the 20th instant,
during the debate in the House of Commons in reference to
the Greek massacres, we are glad to see has been just now
issued from the press as a separate publication. Brief,
though it was, it was as directly to the purpose, and RR im-
pressive as any speech delivered in either House of Parlia-
ment in regard to that most lamentable catastrophe.

THE AURORA BOREALIS was on Saturday morning
the 28th (between 12 15 and 12 40) visible in the northern
heavens in the form of first one and eventually three broad
bands of scintillating light, gradually growing paler, until
at the end of 25 minutes it had almost entirely disappeared.
The long and expensive parliamentary contest
between the Metropolitan District Railway Company and
the City authorities was brought to a close yesterday. The
Lords' Committee unanimously refused to sanction the
construction of a line from Bread-street to the Mat,sion-
house. The proposal of the Metropolitan Railway Company
to abandon their line from Aldgate to Tower-hill was also
refused, but the Committee tire prepared to recommend that
there should be an extension of time, if it be desired, for the
completion of tho works.

THE ALLEGED MURDER IN STEPNEY.

Last evening Mr Humphreys held an inquest at the
Rising Sun Tavern, Sidney-street, Stepney, to inquire into
the death of Mrs Sarah Redhead ; the deceased was 51 years
of age.
In opening the inquiry the Coroner read a 1 tter, sent
by Ellen Redhead, who is a domestic servant at an
hotel in Piccadilly, to her brother, the young man who
is in custody, charged, on his own confession, with
the murder of the deceased, who was his stepmother.
It was put in with the view of showing that there was
a misunderstanding in the family with regard to a young
man who was paying his attentions to the writer of the
letter.

The following evidence was taken :--
Thomas Ashton, 83, Sidney-street, deposed that be
knew the deceased woman, Sarah Redhead. She was the
second wife of James Redhead, the steward of a ship now
on its way from China to England. She lived with her step-
son, William Redhead He was a member of 'he 7th Tower
Hamlets Rifle Corps. At half-past two o'clock on Monday
afternoon last witness was at home in his front room, and
he heard fire-arms go off, and, believing it was a man
who lived next door, he went to the front door for the
purpose of speaking to his neighbour, and saw William Red-
head run out.
Mary Ann Morris, a married woman, who occupied the
top front room of the house No. 80, Sidney-street, said
that she knew the deceased well, having resided in the
house twelve months. The deceased had been married
ten months. She had a stepson about eighteen years of
age. He was employed by a wine merchant near London-
bridge. She had never heard the deceased and her step-
son quarrel. They appeared to live on the best of terms.
He was not a religious young man. He used to laugh when
religion was talked about. He went out every day but
Monday. On Monday afternoon he shut. himself up in his
room and [pulled down the blinds. About half-past two
o'clock witness heard the report of a gun. She was then
at the top of the staircase, and on looking down saw the
body of the deceased lying at the foot of the stairs. She
saw the stepson leave the house with the rifle in his hand
and smoke coming out of the muzzle.
After evidence to the same effect by another witness,
Mr. Philip Page made a statement with regard to William
Redhead. h was to the iffect that on Saturday he was
present at the ball practice of his corps. Twenty rounds
of ball cartridge were served out, and Redhead told the
witness he had used all his. Volunteers were not allowed
to take unused ball cartridge home with them. Redhead
was a good shot, and a very steady young man.
The inquiry was adjourned until after the post-mortem
examination.
