IMPERIAL PARLIAMENI
HOUSE OF LORDS—LAST EVENING.
The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the wOolss
at five o'clock.
HABITUAL CRIMINALS BILL.
On the report of this bill being brought up,
The Earl of KIMBERLEY said he had framed certail
amendments, which would, he hoped, meet the views
thOse who objected to the original enactments of the pi't,
On clause 10,
Lord ROMILLY objected to the clause, as it made Veg`
sons under police supervision liable on mere suspicion°
a year's imprisonment. He telt it actually necessary tbi
some evidence should be given that the man was guilt,
of living by dishonest means before he was sent to pri6'
on the mere suspicion of the police.
The Earl of KIMBERLEY said it was only persd
who had been previously convicted that became subject
the surveillance of the police. The object of the I'l
was to call upon suspected persons to prove that 014
were getting their living honestly.
Lord CAIRNS supported the clause.
The Marquis of SALISBURY also support the clad
but suggested that the direct authority of the chief Or
stable to arrest suspected persons should be adduced
evidence.
After some discussion tho amendments were agreed t°'
. The report was then adopted, and the bill ordered tot'
read a third time.
Lord Napier's Salary Bill, the Mutiny Bill, and gar°
Mutiny Bill were read a second time.
Their lordships then adjourned.

HOUSE OF COIIMONS.—LAsT 'EVENING',
The SPEAKER took the chair at 4 o'clock.
NATURALISATION LAWS.
Mr. V. HARCOURT gave notice that on Friday 13_4
he would ask the Secretary of State for the Home Den
ment if the Government intended during the press'
session to introduce a measure founded upon the rero
recently presented by the Royal Commission appliited
consider the neutrality laws and the laws affecting o
naturalisation of foreigners.
PROPOSED DISESTABLISHMENT AND DIS°
DOWMENT OF THE ESTABLISHED 0110
IN ENGLAND AND SCOTLAND.
Captain ARCHDALL (M.P. for Fermanagh coon-

gave notice that on the third reading of tho, bill for,/,
disestablishmeut and disendowment of the Irish Cist,iggiv
he should move that the bill be extended to the If'
blished Churches of England and Scotland.
THE SLIGO ELECTION.
Mr. SULLIVAN gave notice that on Friday he slic4
move an address to her Majesty for a Royal Comratas''
to inquire into corrupt practices at the last election for
borough of Sligo.
INLAND POSTAGE.
' Mr. GRAVES rose and called the attention of
house to the rates of inland postage on printed Matti
He entered at length into the various advantages i
would result from the lowering of rates now levied 1,,
the Post-office, and concluded by moving, that in
Ail
opinion of the house it is expedient to reduce the 'al
to one halfpenny for two ounces, and that the postage
newspapers should likewise be reduced to one halfpea%
Mr. MUNDELLA supported the motion. He said 01„
the reduction was absolutely necessary, as by the pr°se,
arrangement a circular could be posted from Palertalo
Aberdeen for a less cost than it could be from tbi
house to the Strand. The postage of circulars
become geteral.in all parts of the world, and the to dr
rate was taken in every place except England. The
livery of circulars had become so general that comfalji
had been started for their dell7ery, the charge for di fe
buting 1,000 being but Bs. 6d., whilst the Post-ofile!,
performing the same service demanded £4 3s. 4d. (Pe
hear)
Mr. MACFIE also approved of the resolution, to Vibti
he hoped the house would give its assent. He thougbot
would be a very beneficial arrangement if the post-0 p
were to reduce the charge for postage circulars do°
the rate of one farthing each.
The Marquis of HARTINGTON condemned the pre.
salon as one of too abstract a nature to lead to any °9t
factory result, even if carried.
iro
After a few words from Mr. C. Buxton, Mr, Broc-
-1
and Mr. Gladstone, the house divided on the motion '94
the question be now put," which was negatived by 2'44
62. The motion accordingly fell to the ground. 0
On the motion of Mr. COWPER it was agreed that 11,0
an instruction to the committee on Hungerford-bridge
Wellington-street Viaduct that they have power to iartlle
and report as to all the lateral communications intended
be made between the Embankment roadway and
Strand or Fleet-street.
oliohouse H. B. SHERIDAN moved that in the opinion 00
house the duty on fire insurances should be at the ear
opportunity reduced to 6d. per cent., instead of is. o'4
,0
cent, now charged ; and that such a reduction would ';
a tendency to improve the revenue by inducing the iv
ance of property now uninsured. 0
- Mr GLADSTONE commented somewhat strong'',)
the unfairness of pressing for a division just befored
Budget, and moved the adjournment of the debate

that day week.
The house ova;

s cleared for a division, but it W
pressed, and the Premier's motion was agreed to.
