gating the rules and orders to the Poor Law Board, and
limiting it' to the clerks of the peace ; the making itcoro-
oulsory on each parish to keep a fire engine ; to the
clauses of centralisation, by removing the appointment
of the auditors to the Poor Law Board, who shall audit,
in addition to the Poor Law accounts, those relating ,to
lighting and watching. The hon. baronet referred to
other objections he hal to the details of the bill, and
concluded by moving that the bill be read a second time
that day six months.
Lord GALWAY seconded the motion, and suggested
to the Vice-President of the Poor Law Board to with-
draw the measure, because it was impossible for the house
properly to consider it at this late period of the session.
It was stated that the urgency of the case demanded the
passing of this bill, but that he did not consider sufficient
'when it was remembered the important changes con-
templated by it. He (Lord Galway) objected to the bill
principally because it proposed to get rid of the Gilbert
Unions, and to introduce centralisation by the appoint-
ment of auditors.
Mr. BOUVERIE said that many different
proposals were contained in the bill, some
of which were important; and others unitripnrfant;
and heshould address hie observatiOns to the :former.
,With regard to the auditors, they were -at present ap-
pointed.by the chairmen and vice-chairmen of Boaryls,of
GuardiansAn the district in' which the. auditor acted,
instead of as formerly by the Boards of Guardians.
As the • auditors 'were paid out of 'the public Cures'
and had to-aotlit the accounrs of the'beard of guardians,
it was thought desirable nnd for the protection.of the
ratepayers that they should be appointed by the Poor
Law Board ,inaccrirda'nee 'With the recominendatißnitac
a select committee in '1853:- The principal objeCtioe to'
,the bill -appeared to tie against the dissolving of thd
Gilbert Unions, but he thought it"was 'high ;time they
-Were dissolved. There were only 14 Gilbert Unions
„
J
throughout the country, and as they. were conductod,
contrary to law, and the poor doubt disregarded,
would be to.' the 'heifefit • and advantage, of the'rat;
payers and the poor that a,change 'abhqld take place.
By the present system extra-garoohial.places, num-
bering 30,000 inhabitants, did not. come. under the ,Poor
Law Act, and the consequface was, the ,destitute poor
•:could.not • be" relieVed from Pia., rates, ~ and ,
-depend on. casual benevolence.; land, charity. Cases
-of persons being: deatitete 40-ill frequently came
vi
before the poni-la'Poard for relief, but none could be
granted, as rated for that purpose Could not be,raised in
the district, nor could the destitute be, relieved from the
fends 'of the adjoining union. .The 'same applia 'to
-pauper lunatics,
,ad' it was necessary that it 'shOnld •he
changed. There was an urgency for alteration as re=
.garded the extra paroblaial districts; and •he asked the
honde to legislate•on it. As there were objections to
the other parts of the bill, if the house would assent to
its second reading, he would, on going into committee,
strike out everything in the bill relating to extra-paro-
chial districts. (Hear, -hear.)
Sir J. TROLLOPE expressed his satisfaction at the
contemplated changes 4 ith regard to extra-parochial
districts, but objected to the other parts of the measure.
He called the attention of the President of the Poor
Law Board to the present system of medical relief,
which required amendment. At present the medical
relief, one half of which was paid by the State, amounted
to 250,0001. per annum. If doubled the poor
would be greatly benefitted, whilst the additional ex-
pense spread over the various unions throughout the
country would be trifling to each union.
After some remarks from Mr. CARDWELL to make the
extra-parochial system perfect,
Mr. HENLEY objected to the second reading of the
bill. It was impossible to make one general measure
applicable to the various extra-parochial districts
throughout the kingdom, and he suggested it would
be better not to legislate for the present on this subject,
but wait and have an inquiry into the details next see
sign.

'Mr. BARROW objected to the second reading, be-
cause he disliked this "periling system" of legislation.
He fully concurred in the proposal to bring extra-paro-
chial places under the operation of the Poor Law Board.
Mr. wArirE Et asked the President of the Poor Law.
Board to withdraw the bill altogether and bring in a
better and more comprehensive system next session,
which would meet the necessities of the case.
It being 10 minutes to 4 o'clock, the debate, in ac-
cordance with the standing orders, was adjourned.
The other business on the morning paper was then
disposed of, and the house suspended its sitting at four
o'clock.

PRIVATE AND JOINT-ST OCK BANKS.

The Banters' Magazine furnishes the returns of circu-
lation of the private and joint-stock banks in England
and Wales for the four weeks ending the 7th of June,
1856, and gives the following as the average weekly cir-
culation, of those banks during the past month, viz. :
Private banks ... £3,815,55
Joint-stock batiks 3,066,417

Average weekly circulation £6,8,2,002

On comparing the above with the returns for the pre
ceding month, ending the 10th of May last, it shows—

ARRIVALS AT MELBOURNE.—The later adviees re•
ceived from Melbourne mention the arrival at that
port, on the 11 of April, of the Ballrrat, Captain
Jones, and the SValmer Castle, Captain Daniels, both
from London.

Complaints are made of annoyance experienced by the
officers of the Customs' Department owing to delays
which take place in the payment of the salaries at the
end of the quarter. The authorities dernand.puuctuality
from their subordinates, and they should abstain from
setting them a bad example.
A new line of screw steamers is about to be started to
run from London to Montreal direct. The first will sad
on the 23d of the present month. She is named the
Chester, and is of 567 tons burden, with about 100-horse
power. Her cargo will consist chiefly of fine goods, and
she will carry only a very few passengers.

ACCIDENT ON A RAILWAY.—A man and horse were
killed at the Preston and Longridge railway station
on Monday. Deceased, whose name was John Carter,
and who was very deaf, was going with his horse
and cart along an occupation road which crosses one
of the lines, and was on the off side of his horse
when a train from Longridge came up ; and, although
the driver of the engine sounded his whistle two or
three times, Carter held on his course, and the train '
struck the horse and cart and knocked them into an
adjoining ditch. Carter was picked up dead, one side
of his bead being driven in ; and the horse died soon
afterwards.—Manchester Guardian.
FIRE AND Loss OF LIFE AT WOOLWlCH.—Yesterday
morning a fire broke out at a quarter to five o'clock,
causing the total destruction of a large room for evening
entertainments, known as the Canterbury Music Hall,
situated at the rear of a tavern bearing that name, in
Church-street, Woolwich. All the inmates escaped,
with the exception of one unfortunate old lady, who was
sleeping in a room at the top of the house, and nearly
over the burning building. One of the police succeeded
in getting her out of bed, and carried her toa neighbour-
ing house, but she expired about a quarter of an hour
afterwards. Her name was Mrs. Jewsberry. She was
about 80 years of age.
A. letter from Jassy of June 17, in the Constitu.
tionnef, says
"The article in the treaty of Paris which decides on
consulting the inhabitants of the Danubian Principalities
as to their future government, has given rise to two
paities in Moldaxiaone ip, favour ,of the union .of the
Principafities, 'and.the Other opposed tcr it. The leaders
of the former_ partySnme time back.held a meeting,
' whieh ihefollowio,g princi:Ples were,agreed to :-1. The
'union 'bf' MOlJavia and Wallachia under a foreign'
prince ; 2. The, selection .of a common capital for the
two provincei • and, 3. The publication of journals and
pamphlet's, and sending delegates, About the country to.
enlighten public opinion. On the 9th another meeting,
of 200 persons of all, classes, was held at the residence
of M. Michel, Cantacuzenes, at which the above pro-
grainree was' to;clOpted. aud nurnerouslysigned. Such are
the measure's taken by the partisans of the union ; but;
though they seem likely to succeed, it will not be with
• a struggle against an enterprising minority, composed
of all the local ambitions which this programme would
disappoint, supported by the influence of those
powers which opposed, the union at the congress of
Paris. I will now state thep/incipal,arguments of this
latter party --1 ;t By the fustian Moldavia.and

tre of. Moldavia,' say they, the Moldavian nationality
will be Absorbed by the Wallachian, trade annihilated
iq the countries distant trona the capital,' and all the ad—
vantages of the change will fall to the share of Walla-
chia.' 'lt is scarcely necessary to, refute such arguments
founded solely on individual interests, and all must at
