IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF COMMONS—(YESTERDAY.)
The SPEAKER took the chair at 12 o'clock.
DEVONPORT.
The SPEAKER announced the recept of a letter to the
effect that it was not intended to proceed with the Retition
against the return of the member for the borough of Devon-
port

HYDE PARK.
Mr. E. JAMES gave notice that on the motion for the
adjournment of the house on Friday evening, he would
ask the First Lord of the Treasury a question in reference
to the removal of the shrubs from II yde Park.
DETENTION OF A BRITISH SUBJECT.
Sir A. AGNEW gave notice that he would ask a question
of the Government in regard to the recent detention of a
British subject in CHURCH RATES.
Mr. PACKE moved for an address for return of all the
parishes in England and Wales where church rates have
ceased to be collected ; what sum was collected by a rate to
keep the church in repair during the last seven years before
the rate ceased ; and what sum had been raised by voluntary
contributions for that purpose since the rate ceased.
Sir C. LEWIS said that he thought the best course in
reference to this question would be to direct churchwardens
to supply the house with an annual return of the amount of
church rates in the same way that returns were made in re-
gard to highway rates.
ROMAN CATHOLIC CHARITIES.
In reply to Mr. NEWDEGATE7
Sir G. C. LE WIS said a bill on the subject was under the

consideration of Government. He mentioned that matter
with a view to ascertain the feeling of the house, and if that
feeling were in favour of the introduction of such a bill he
would bring it forward.

IeOrAZ ENGLISH OPER4.

The revival last night of Auber's ever-fresh an
delightful " Crown Diamonds " reintroduced to tho
public Miss Lousia Pyne and Mr. W. Harrison!
who both appeared to have derived much benefit
.5 from their recent rest of more than five weeks' durr
tion. Miss Louisa Pyne, who on first coming up/
the stage was welcomed with several rounds °
unanimous and enthusiastic applause, sang the,
sparkling and vivacious music of Catarina e'ree
better than usual ; for, to the unerring skill an,*
masterly finish by which her vocalisation is invari-
ably_, distinguished was united an amount of physics'
force such as Miss Pyne, overworked as she 00:
rally is at Covent Garden Theatre, cannot alwar
command.
All requisite breadth of tone in the sustaitlea_
notes, brilliancy, and joyous spirit, no less than
mechanical perfection in the florid passages, Were,
again present to enchant the ear, and realise !
general result such as certainly no other eopralw
now before the public could surpass.
Miss Louisa Pyne was energetically supportoi
by Mr. Harrison, who, as Don Henrique, displaye'
uncommon zeal and animation. He, too, was loudli
applauded throughout the opera.
The other characters were ably sustained, 0.4
Mr. Alfred Mellon conducted the band with all h 1
well-known spirit and skill.

ASTLEY'S AMP_HITHEATEE.

Next Monday, the 30th instant, Mr. Willi!:
Cooke, the enterprising lessee of Astley's At
phitheatre, takes his retiring benefit, a'," r
which evening the management of this :bp
nowned place of amusement passes into to
hands of his sons. Setting aside the attracticy
nature of the entertainments selected for the °Co
sion, such an event would most certainly dram
immense audience, for the habitues of Astleys
all be anxious to testify to Mr. Cooke their aid
ration of the manner in which he has conducts
the theatre since he became lessee.

The Woolwich division of Royal Marine Light
Infantry was yesterday paraded in the Barrack-
square before Col. Stransham, Commandant, and

and medals for good conduct and

m
Private Corp, who have served faithfullyawir: and
the
corps upwards of 21 years. The Commandant,
after inspecting the men, pronounced
sive and appropriate remarks relative_ some impres-
to the honour
about to be awarded by command of the Lords of
the Admiralty. The three men were called to the
front, the two non commissioned officers being
15 each and a silver
pre-
sented with a bounty of
medal, the medals
being attached their breasts
by Lieut. and A
Naylor. ilie Commandant
having informed t.
the recipients that it gave him
great satisfaction to reward the good conduct of
those under his comraand, and that he hoped they
to enjoy the honour, they retired to
might live long
the line, and the troops were dismissed to quarters.
The whole of the Government establishments,
barracks, hospitals, forts, and other buildings at
Chatham and Rcelicster have been surveyed by
direction of the authorities of the War Department,
with the view of being fairly and equitably assessed
to the pool and other parochial rates, from which
all the Guvernmcatt establishments have hitherto
pleaded exemption. It is understood that as soon
as the returns of the surveyors appointed have been
received the authorities will enter into an arrange-
flint with the palish officers and other public
bodies at Chatham and Rochester for being assessed,
the Crown thus taking its share of the local
burdens.

The intention of the Government to disband a
portion, if not the whole, of the militia regiments
is now placed beyond all doubt, and the first to be
disembodied will be the 3d West York Militia, at
present stationed at Newcastle-upon-Tyne and Sun-
derland, which is under orders to proceed at once
to Doncaster, the depot of the regiment. It is ex-
pected that the corps, which consists of 10 compa.
Dies of 93 men, exclusive of the band, will arrive
in Doncaster early next week, and, as soon as the
necessary steps shall have been taken, the whole
will be disembodied.

FRENCH ARMY AND NAVY ESTI-

MATES.

The following are some of the credits respecting
the army and navy set down in the Budget of
1861 :

The effective of the army, like that of 1860, is
calculated at 392,000 men and 83,000 horses-
-65,600 of the men and 15,300 of the horses be-
ing set down for Algeria. The expenses, however,
are 6,600,000 fr. more than in 1860, owing to the
au ;mentation of the Garde de Paris, the dearness

' of forage, the increase of salaries below 1,200 fr.
(there are 650 persons with such salaries in the
central administration), the appointment of three
new marshals in the war in Italy, the assimila-
tion of generals commanding at Lyons to those of
Paris as regards allowances for expenses of recep-
tions, &c. (9,000 fr. to generals of division and
4,000 fr. to generals of brigade), and the esta-
blishment of artillery schools at Versailles and
Grenoble. The total of the budget of the War De-
partment is 346,058,744 fr., and the principal
items composing it are, in round figures—
staff, 20,000,000 fr. ; gendarmerie, 30,900,000 fr. ;
troops, 184,500,000 fr. ; forage, 29,500,000 fr. ;
and engineering material, 17,000,000 fr. The Bud-
get of the Navy is 124,351,883 fr., which is enly
848,700 fr. more than in 1860. It proposes,
among other things, to provide for the protection
of the coasts by the establishment of posts in
communication with lines of electric telegraph,
the said posts to be occupied by 190 men, and
to improve the condition of the sailors by adding
to their rations on land a hot breakfast, and
by increasing the rations on board by a larger
allowance of meat and vegetables. No change is
made with regard to the fleet, properly so called ;
and consequently the sum of 65,000,000 fr., will
(as has been the case every year since 1857 and
as is to be for ten years to come) be devoted to the
expense of transforming sailing vessels into screws,
etc. The budget sets down the number of vessels in
commission at 152, and the number of men on board
them at 26,300. The vessels are to be-8 screw
ships of the line, 1 sailing ditto ; 6 screw frigates,
1 paddle wheel, and 2 sailing ditto ; 3 screw cor-
vettes, 6 paddle wheel, and 5 sailing ditto; 20 screw
advice boats, 37 paddle wheel ditto, 6 brigs, 6 screw
gunboats, 23 transports, 28 small vessels. In addition
to those there are to be 9 vessels, 1 of them a screw
frigate, to replace others which may be damaged ;16
armed by way of experiment, 1 of them a screw
ship of the line, 7 screw frigates, 3 iron-plated
frigates ; 7 vessels disposable (one a ship of the
line) ; and 90 in reserve. The budget shows that
the officers to be employed at sea are-1 vice-
admiral, 8 rear•admirals (out of 20), 116 captains
(out of 340), 299 lieutenants (out of 650) ; 285
passed midshipmen (disciples) (out of 550).
The principal items in the budget are—pay,
41,000,000 fr.; provisions, 12,000,090 fr.; workmen,
16,000,000 fr. ; stores for the fleet 36,000,000 fr.
and hydraulic works 12,000,000 fr."

The SPEAKER took the chair at 12 o'clock.
DE VONP ORT
The SPEAKER announced the recent of a letter to the
effect that it was not intended to proceed with the petition
against the return of the member for the borough of Devon-

Sir A. AGNEW save notice that he would ask a question
of the Government in regard to the recent detention of a
British subject in Cadiz.
CHURCH RATES.
Mr. PACKE moved for an address for return of all the
parishes in England and 'Wales where church rates have
ceased to be collected; what sum was collected by a rate to
keep the church in repair during the last seven years before
the rate ceased ; and what sum had been raised by voluntary
contributions for that purpose since the rate ceased.
Sir C. LEWIS said that. he thought the best course in
reference to this question would be to direct churchwardens
to supply the house with an annual return of the amount of
church rates in the same way that returns were made in re-
gard to highway rates.
ROMAN CATHOLIC CHARITIES.

In reply to Mr. NEWDEGATE,
Sir G. C. LEWIS said a bill on the subject was under the
consideration of Government. He mentioned that matter
with a view to ascertain the feeling of the house, and if that
feeling were in favour of the introduction of such a bill he
would bring it forward.

Sir J. TRELAWNY moved for leave to introduce a bill
to abolish church-rates, and said he did not apprehend after
what had already taken place that there would be any op-

sider the acts relating to the Consolidated Fund to-morrow.

secure the right of appeal in criminal cases.
Sir (1. C: LEWIS said there was no intention on the
part of the Government to oppose this bill, the object of
which relatednot to a political matter, butto a question which
had attracted the greatest attention on the part of all classes.
It certainly was a subject of considerable importance, but
he wished to be understood as not pledging himself to
the principle of any bill on the matter to which it re-
ferred.
The motion was agreed to.

DRURY-LANE THEATRE.

Ever since Mr. E. T. Smith became lessee of this
national place of amusement, pantomime has bee°
his especial favourite, and great. to an almost 1111'
precedented extent, has been his success in the
production of that highly atAractive entertainment'
To his great many succe!,ses he has now to add hi'
Christmas tribute for 1859, " Jack and the Bea°
Stalk ; or, Harlecr:in Leap Year." Every night
since its product!ion the theatre has been crowded t°
excess, and 2-..nple as are the dimensions of Old Drat
accommoAL' n.tion for all who nightly congregate ow
side 4:tie doors, braving the inclemency of the see:
51:4 has been utterly impossible. His remarkable
success, without doubt, is mainly owing to to/
great care Mr. Smith has devoted to this species Oht
entertainment; for in the present, as in all his Pa.
pantomimes, is to be found combined moderP,
burlesque, extravaganza, acrobatic feats, ballet
the highest pretension, mingled with all the chive
racteristic drolleries of tho old harlequinade, the
whole being set off by scenery, costume, and decors;
tions of the most beautiful and gorgeous descrir
tion.

The morning performances have been so succesg;
ful that the pantomime is to be performed ever,
Wednesday, at two p.m., until further notice.

CENTRAL ITALY.

A letter from Florence, dated Jan. 20, says :
Yesterday Prince Alfred left Florence, to return
to Leghorn, where the Euryalus is stationed for the
present. lam glad to inform you that on entering
the harbour of Leghorn she returned the national
salute, a circumstance which has been the topic of
much conversation in this town. Political news is
rather scanty to-day, but general regret prevails
here on account of the sad intelligence of poor
Poerio's dangerous illness. In consequence of this
momentary dearth, I cannot do better than send
you the grotesque, half Chinese, half mediaeval edict
of the Holy Inquisition just found at Bologna.
Who can read this document without shuddering
at the idea that a poor population have been for
long years under the demoralising action of such
dark and iniquitous power! An Englishman could
be hardly brought to believe that in our century a
man who calls himself a minister of the God of
peace and mercy could find the courage to publish
and sign such a revolting document.
" We, brother Filippo Bertolotti, of the order of
preachers, professor of theology in the towns of
Pesaro, Rimini, Fano, Pennabilli, and the sur-
rounding places, inquisitor-general of the holy
apostolic see, and especially appointed against
heretical depravity :
" Ateording to the charge imposed upon us by
this holy office wo desire to maintain the Catholic
faith pure from every heretical contagion ; but it
being manifest that many, from malice, disobe-
dience and ignorance are slack in fulfilling their
duty to denounce such crimes to the holy office, giv-
ing thus cause to great inconvenience and errors,
not only against good morals but expressly against
the Catholic faith, We, who are bound to take the
glory of the Lord to heart, and to promulgate and
preserve the holy faith, to watch over the salvation
, command accordingly, under pain of
of
excommunicationthesouls
and other penalties-of the Pontiff,

morable expedition to China and Japan, in 1857-
1858-1850, in the responsible and confidential
capacity of the Noble Lord's Private Secretary.

It is from the notes and diaries accumulated by
him during that mission that our indefatigable
traveller has built up this singular, we believe we
are strictly accurate in terming it this perfectly
unique literary monument.

The production about which we are now writing
is here alluded to in our leading columns rather
than in those customarily devoted to literary criti-
cism, because we cannot but regard the literary
merits of the work, great though those undoubt-
edly are, as having been altogether surpassed by its
political importance. More especially have the
volumes an interest and a weight in the political
world at the present moment, when we are but just
now in the very act of embarking upon our third
and most momentous war with the Chinese, a war
the result of which must vitally affect the
past policy of Lord ELeIN, and our future
relations with both the Chinese and Ja-
panese populations. Not a statesman, not a
journalist, aot a politician of any shade or colour,
not any one of those about to be entrusted at the
seat of war with either naval, or military, or diplo-
matic responsibility, but would do wisely to exa-
mine the lucid and brilliant record of Lord ELGIN'S
three years' mission, for which we are indebted to

the clear intelligence and the skilful and rapid
hand of Mr. LAURENCE OLIPHANT, his lordship's
Private Secretary. It were beside our purpose at the
present moment to do more than direct particular
attention to volumes abounding in timely and valu.
able occasionally from its import invaluable infor-
mation. A little later on—it might perchance be
to morrow, it would iu every event be at our ear-
liest opportunity—we may find occasion to revert
to these volumes, examining some of their contents
more in detail. As it is, our object is now simply,
but very earnestly, to recommend these two really
noble volumes ,embellished by maps and photographs,
and a profusion of miscellaneous illustrations, to
the consideration of all lettered Englishmen—but
most of all to those who would read aright the
genius and the character of our old foes, soon let us
hope to be at length and permanently our fast
friends, the Chinese.

At our market to-day there was a steady business in
wheat at full prices, and in some instances a little more
money was paid for superior red. Flour was firm, but the
transactions were limited. Indian corn was fully as dear.
Oats were more plentiful. Barley and peas were both very
firm.

TILE HOP DUTY.

On the 7th inst. the Chancellor of the Exchequer
addressed the following letter to Mr. J. C. Dodson,
M.P., who acted as leader of a deputation which
had previously had an interview with the right
hon. gentleman :—" My dear Sir,—l find that the
termination of the excise round and the commence-
ment of the new one, applicable to the collection of
this year's hop duty under the new arrangement,
will require that it should become payable when
demanded by the officers on any day subsequent to
the 25th of February. This I hope you will take as
a fulfilment of my promise of postponement to
March 1. In a great majority of cases the demand
will not be made until after March 1. Yours sin-
cerely, W. E. GLADSTONE." The right hon. gen-
tleman proposed to ask Parliament to fix the duty
on foreign hops as follows :-1. Till Jan. 1, 1861,
as now ; 2. Till January 1, 1862, at 20s. ; 3. After-
wards at 15s. (British to be 14s. from January 1,
and the duty on crop 1860 to be paid up to Feb-
ruary 25, 1861).
