CAPE OF GOOD HOPE.

The Earl of MALMESBURY, on behalf of his
Noble Friend Lord Stanley, postponed the motion of
which he had given notice on this subject, and which
stood for this evening.
ABD-EL-KADER.
The Marquis of LONDONDERRY rose, pursuant to
notice, to put a question to her Majesty's Government, if
they knew of any communication having been had between
the French Government and the Government of the Porte
respecting the continued imprisonment of Abd-el-Kader.
He had seen with great satisfaction that the British Go-
vernment was on better terms with foreign Governments
than it was this time last year, and he was glad to find
that the entente cordiale between this country and France
had not diminished under the rule of that wise and ju-
dicious Prince who was now President of that Republic,
and who, he could not but believe, would receive
any intercession of ours on behalf his captive would be
favourably received. He had had a correspondence with
the President on the subject, and he felt that the
moral dignity of the House of Lords exercised great
power throughout Europe, and he was certain that
any representation they might make would produce
great effect. (The Noble Marquis then proceeded
to read extracts from his correspondence with
the President of the French Republic on the subject of
the captivity of Alyl-el-Kader.) He considered that,
from the expressions made use of in the correspondence,
the President was favourably disposed towards the
liberation of Abd-el-Kader, and that any repre-
sentation from the Government of this country could
not but strengthen him in his resolve. The
Noble Marquis concluded by putting the question
of which he had given notice, and also asked if the Go-
vernment would give intimations to the Ambassadors in
France and Constantinople, to use t heir exertions to pro-
vide a less restrictive domicile for Abd-el-Kader.

The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said that her Ma-
jesty's Government had received no communication from
the French Government on the subject of Abd-el-Kader,
and that we had no right to interfere in the matter. How-
ever much he might individually feel for the sufferings of
such a great warrior as A bd-el-Kader, however satisfac-
tory it might be to hint to learn that that eminent
warrior had been released, or that his sufferings had been
mitigated, yet he felt that as a Government we had no
right whatever to interfere.
Lord BROUGHAM said, nothing could be more
gratifying than the statement of the Noble Marquis re-
lating to this unpreeederited passage in the history of
modern times. He did not blame the present head of
the French Government or his illustrious predecessor;
but he blamed the public opinion in France, which in
this respect was anything but sound or creditable to the
nation.
