On the motion for the third reading,
.kr. STAFFORD protest, c 1 apiust the Bill, but inti•
muted that it was not his intention to divide the House
on the motion for the third reading. He hoped the Bill
would meet with a different fate in another place.
Mr. HUME thought the House had proceeded in a
rash and inconsiderate manner, in agreeing to this Bill,
which in his opinion stigmatized and disgraced the first
municipal corporation in the country.

Gye, the director of the Royal Italisn Opera, has been in-
formed that her Majesty will visit the Royal Italian Opera,

PASSPORTS POE PRIISSIA.—We are requested to
state that every English subject will be henceforth admitted
into the Prussian dominions upon showing a passport. from
the competent British authorities, without any visa of
Prussian Legation or Consulate, as was hitherto required.
LIBERALIrY OF THE MARQUIS OF CRANDOS.—We
have much pleasure in recording an act of liberality on the
part of the Marquis of Chandos, which we hope to see ex-
tensively followed by oche- influential persons in this town
and county. Oa Thursday last upwards of forty children
arrived at the Aylesbury station of the North-Western Rail-
London from Wotton, far the purpose f bein conved to
to visit th, Great Exhibition. o
Theg
children left
iNutton at an early hour, in waggons, which remained for
them until their return from London in the evening. The
female portion of the visitors were attired in red cloaks, and
a more happy or pleasant sight can scarcely be imagined.
The whole of the expense attendant on the conveyance to
town and admi-sion to the Crystal Palace was defrayed by
the Noble Marquis; and on Thursday next, we understand
a similar treat will be afforded the agricultural labourers
from Stowe and neighbourhood, to the nutnha of sixty...

PAPAL APPOINTMENTS.--A t the last accounts,
Archbishop Hughes had reached Pari. on his way home
from Rome, without that red hat. The Pope has behaved
very shabbily to our New York prelate. Instead of gg
him a hai—a Cardinal's hat (even an old hat w, ul have
done) hats Holiness only gave him a fish. The Pope was
more polite to Airs. Bennett, when she last visited the
Eternal City, His Holiness presented to that lady a beau-
tiful cameo portrait of himself, end a plenary indulgence,
signed by his own hand, for her husband. Unfortunate

sale of goods at Hull, to which persons were admitted
on the payment of a stalling each,

ciple on which the speculation was conducted was "su

Mr. Hugh Hill attended on behalf of the Crown, in the
absence of the Attorney-General, and the defendant con-
ducted his own case in person.
The trial had only proceeded a stage when the Crown
consented to take a verdict for one penalty of 2001, on
the first count of the inforsaation, the defendant agree-
ing to pay all costs, and the Crown undertaking not to
enforce payment of the penalty in the event of the de-
fendant not again repeating the offence.

the jury.

MPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OE COMMONS.
The SPEAKER took the Chair shortly after Twelve
o'clock.

The St. Helee's Impruvement Bill was read a third
times and passed.
Mr. MO WATT moved that the standing orders be
dispensed with in the case of the Metropolitan Water
Supply (control of by Representative Rudy) Bill be dis-
pensed with a view t.) reading the Bill a second time.
Mr. WILSON PATTEN opposed the motion, and
said than, if it were carried the House might as well dis-
Ponso altoge her with the Standing Orders' Committee,
for it would be sanctioning a most flagrant breach of the
rules which it had laid down fur the introduction of
private Bills.
