TENURE OF LAND (IRELAND) BILL.

Sir J. WALSH gave notice that on the motion for the
second reading of this bill he would move that it be read a
second time that day six months.
OFFICERS IN THE INDIAN ARMY.
Sir H. STRACEY asked the Secretary of State for
War whether the Secretary of State for India had not sent -
to hign the names of certain officers of her Majesty Indian
Army, who have for their distinguished services been recom-
mended by the Governor-General of India and the Comman-
der-in. Chief for the Companionship of the Bath; and, if
so, why this honour had not been conferred ; and whether
there would be any objection to their names being recorded
in the eazetts ?

Mr. S. HERBERT said that there was no disposition on
the part of Government to delay conferring the honour al-
luded to, but circumstances had arisen that prevented the
Government from carrying out the object to which the hon.
baronet referred.
IRISH ECCLESIASTICAL COMMISSION.
Mr. VANCE asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland when
it was his intention to introduce the bill for the better
regulation of the Irish Ecclesiastical Commission ?

Mr. CARDWELL said that the billwould be introduced
into the other house.

ROMAN CATHOLIC CHARITIES.

Mr. NEWDEGATE asked the hon. member for Dun-
dalk, when he intended proceeding with the bill respecting
Roman Catholic charities, upon which the Secretary of
State for the Home Department had informed the house
that the hon. member had been in communication with the
Government ?

Mr. BOWYER said there had been no delay en his part
in bringing on this bill, but the measure had been retarded
in consequence of the difficulties that arose from the diffe-
rence between Roman Catholic and other churches. The
bill had been placed in the hands of an eminent convey-
ancer, and be was in communication with the Attorney-
General on the subject of the measure. Ile was quite
prepared to go on with the bill in committee.
London, England, 1860-05-08

PETITIONS.

guments in favour of the bill were founded on exaggerated
statements ; in favour of the system of national education
in Ireland i in favour of and against tho Wine Licenses

ITALY.
The following is the toxt of the proclamation
addressed by INlazzini to tile Sicilians :
" Sicilians—When I, almost 30 years ago, in-
scribed on the banner of Young Italy the word
' Unity,' when I said that a popular insurrection
might expel Austria from Lombardy and over-
throw the thrones of the despots of Florence, Rome,
and Naples, practical men laughed at me for think-
ing of impossible dreams, and declared as a Uto-
pian scheme that which is now the most ardent
wish of every Italian in the political unity of that

peninsula.
" Faets have justified my assertions. The revo-
lutions of 1848 have proved that not a throne, even
when supported by foreign bayonets, could stand
against the will of the people. The events which
have taken place in Italy during the last twelve
months clearly show that unity will be no longer a
dream, but a reality, when the people who still
groan in chains give a strong and fresh impulse to
events and resume a vigorous initiative.
" Sicilians ! Be you the first ! Show that you
have not degenerated since the days of our ances-
tors. Revolution is permanent in Sicily, says old
Europe ; let it be once more right, and let this time
be the last. Let insurrection spread from one end
to another of your island. Fight like heroes, as
you are in the habit of doing, and you will be vic-
torious.

" The Government of the Bourbons having been
broken down, we will proclaim that which Central
Italy has already chosen—the only one that can be
called Italian, that of the brave and gallant King.
Let us therefore inscribe on our banners the word
Annexation.'

" Before being a republican I was in favour of
unity, for it appeared to me that a republic alone
could lead to it. I was mistaken. Victor Emmanuel
made Italy progress towards that object ; he will
lead her to it if the people will assist him. I thus
sacrifice old ideas to old principle ; and with you,
Sicilians, and with all the other people of the Italian
peninsula, who will henceforth form only one na-
tion, with you I cry, Long live Victor Emmanuel,
King of Italy.'
" Sicilians, the hour has struck. In the name of
Italy, To arms ! " JOSEPH MAZZINI."

Fullerton, cockswain:

The Venus, Capt. Sharplin, accompanied the race. Red,.
with the worst station, took the lead, followed by Orange,
who passed them at Simmond's ; but in the next 50 yards
they were all level again. Blue then showed ahead ; but
Red again led, Blue second, Orange last for 100 yards,. till
Orange drew level with Blue at the point, and a fine race
ensued to near the Crab Tree, when Orange took the second
place. At Hammersmith Red led by three lengths; but
ill the way to Barnes the rowing in the Orange boat was
so good and effective that inch by inch they neared Red,
who won by barely more than half a clear length. Orange
were three lengths ahead of Blue, and White, who rowed
very pluckily all the way, were considerably astern.

BOURS.

General UPTON moved for a select committee to in-
quire into the truth of the allegations contained
in the petition of the Ayr and kaybole Junction Rail-
way Company, presented in August last, and printed in
the eleventh report of the Select Committoe on Public Peti-
tions, Appendix 202, relative to the application of the grant.
for Portpatrick and Donaghadee Harbours.
Mr. LAING entered into some explanation relative to
the steps which had been previously adopted in regard to
Portpatrick and Drogheda harbours, and said that he felt
bound to oppose this motion. The hon. gentleman de-
fended the conduct of Mr. Wilson in reference to this
matter.
After a few words from Colonel DUNE,

Sir H. 'WILLOUGHBY said that he considered Go-
vernment had not acted properly in respect to this subject.
Originally in 1856 there were two lines of railway to be con-
structed, but in 1857 that contract was altered, and only
one line of railway was to be made. The parties interested
in the Northern line felt themselves aggrieved, and he
suggested that further money should be withheld until the
original contract was carried out.

Mr. DUNLOP thought that the whole question had been
concluded by the vote of last year. He oensidered also
that the country had not got the benefit they were entitled
to from the money granted.

The SPEAKER then put the motion, which was negatived
without a division.

FACTORY BOY APPOINTMENTS EXAMINA-
TION (PORTSMOUTH.)
Mr. BENTINCK moved for ccpies of the examination
papers and answers thereto by the candidates for the ap-
pointment of factory boys before the Civil Service Commis-
sioners at Portsmouth in January. The hon. member
founded his motion on a case in which he considered much
injustice had been inflicted on one of the candidates.

THE REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON
PRECEDENTS.

Lord PALMERSTON, in reply to some questions, said
that he trusted hon. members who had motions on the
subject of the rejection of the bill for the repeal of the duty
on paper would postpone them until Thursday next, when
he would be in a position to make a statement in reference
to the matter, the importance of which he could not exagge-
rate. (Hear, hear.)
Mr. E. JAMES said that, as far as he was concerned, he
would be most happy to accede to the suggestion of the
noble lord. _ _ _ _

Other hon. members expressed themselv.s to the same
effect. _ _

THE SUNDAY TRADING BILL.

Mr. HORSFALL asked the noble lord the member for
Huntingdonshire what his intentions were with regard to
the second reading of the Sunday Trading Bill, which
stood for Friday next.
Lord R. MONTAGUE said that under the circum-
stances, as developed by the expression of feeling in regard
to the bill, he did not feel himself justified in pressing the
measure, which he would formally withdraw next Friday.

INFANTRY UNDER BRIGADIER SUTTON.

The 2d division is commanded by Major-General Sir
Robert Napier, K.C.8., and consists of Mowbray's battery
Royal Artillery ; Govan's battery do. ; Graham's company
of Royal Engineers. 3d brigade, under Brigadier Jephson,
formed of Ist battalion of 3d Buffs, 44th Foot, and Bth Pun-
jaub Infantry. 4th brigade, under Brigadier Reeves, con-
sists of 67th Foot, 99th Foot, 11th Punjaub Infantry, and
19th Punjaub Infantry.
The cavalry brigade is not attached to either of the divi-
sions. It is commanded by Brigadier Pattie, and is com-
posed of two squadrons of Ist Dragoon Guards (not yet
arrived), Probyn's Il orse and Fane's Horse, and Milward's
Battery of Royal Artillery (Armstrong).
An artalery reserve of three batteries of Royal and two
batteries of Madras Native Artillery, the latter having a
mountain train.
An Engineers reserve of half a company of Royal En-
gineers, and two companies of Madras Native Sappers and
Miners.
This is the whole expeditionary force, and a very
respectable one it is, as I have no doubt the Chinese
will think when they see it on the shores of the
Gulf of Pe-chi-li. To sum up, we have 3 com-
panies of Royal Engineers, 2 companies of native
sappers, 8 batteries of Royal Artillery-, 2 batteries of
native artillery, 2 squadrons of European cavalry,
5 squadrons of native cavalry, 9 regime.s lnt of
European infantry, and 5 regiments of natives.
With the exception of the artillery and sappers
from Madras, the natives of the force are all Sikhs
and Punjabees.
Preparations are P
romicssin,,m, and though the
still
precise time of departure is course kept secret, it
is conjectured and generally believed that the em-
barkationexpettcd on the 10th, throws
of the troops will commence next week,

&c. And each ship will carry the distinguishing
. flag of the divisor and brigade to which the troops
. on board belong. It is difficult to make a correct
estimate of the number and tonnage of such a vast
. assemblage. Perhaps 100 to 120 sail and 80,000

" Musical Bouquet " Office, High Holborn.

We look with something like astonishment on

the numerous publications of first-class music which

are now constantly appearing, at a fabulously
cheap price, and among which those issued from
The Musical Bouquet claim prominent attention.
We have before us the whole of the divine and en-
thralling Pianoforte Works of Mozart—perfect in
notes, clear in type, and elegant in general appear-
ance, at a cost which was demanded for one com-
position some few years since. The refining and
elevating tendency of such music must exercise a
beneficial influence on all who can llecome familiar
with it, and we prophecy that the excellence of this
publication must ensure a sale that will alike ex-
tend a cultivated love for the noble old masters
and a fair remuneration for the enterprising pub-
lishers.

Charles Grobe's powers of " arrangement" are too
well appreciated to need eulogy; but we must ad-
mit that his variations on " Nellv Gray" are more
than usually attractive. " Les Echoes de la Loire"
offer an agreeable study for the exhibition of taste
and expression, being at the same time very effec-
tive and "taking." "The Power of Beauty Waltz"
and the two Varsovianas are admirably marked,
and are felicitous specimens of Mr. Montgomery's
talent as a composer of dance music. With, per-
haps, a touch of popular prejudice, we are rather
inclined to favour " The Rifle Corps Varsoviana,"
but all three productions are desirable additions to
the folio of those who trip it on the " light fantas-
tic toe." " Wilt Thou be Gone, Love," is a very
sweet vocal duet, founded on the tender parting
between Romeo and Juliet. The sentiment is de-
licately and expressively given, and we can ho-
nestly commend it to all -drawing-room vocalists.
" What's a' the Steer, Kimmer," is a delicious old
Scotch song and chorus, that must set all tongues
and hearts merrily going. In the brilliant song,
" Catawba Wine,' Dempster has done full justice
to Longfellow's words, The rich, jovial air is cal-
culated to awaken a genial feeling and kindle a
sparkling eye in the most passive of mortals, and,
we pity the individual who could listen to it un-
moved. " There Would IBe" is a charming
bal-
lad; the melody flows smoothly with the words,
which are by the popular poetess Eliza Cook. Mr.
Montgomery has evidently understood the theme,
and givi,n a fitting harmony. We think it quite
as successful as his beautiful ballad "The Old, Old
Story," and predict that it will become a favourite.
We again say that the publications now issuing
from the Musical Bouquet Office are adapted to
advance the art of music and elevate the taste of
" the people."'

NAPLES.

Mr. SMERIDAN asked the First Lord of the Treasury
whether, in the event of an outbreak of the Lazzaroni at
Naples, the English representative had instructions and
means at hand sufficient to protect the English residents at
Nipples ?
Lord P ALM E RST ON said the English representative at
Naples had received the instructions necessary to provide
for the security of English residents in the town in ques-
tion.

THE PROPOSED CONFERENCE.
In reply to Sir R. PEEL,
Lord J. RUSSELL said that her Majesty's Government
had acceded to the proposal made with reference to a con-
ference to be held in relation to the annexation of the neu-
t alised provinces of Savoy and Switzerland, and he be-
lieved that Russia had also acceded to the proposal.
FINANCE.

Mr. AYRTON asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer
when he intended to make his statement of the financial
arrangements to complete the provision for the service of
the year ?
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that
the course usually adopted was to obtain the votes neces-
sary for the public service, and then for the Chancellor of
the Exchequer to make a statement, which he was pre-
pared to do at the proper time.
EUROPEAN FORCES (INDIA) BILL.
The adjourned debate on the amendment to the second
reading of this bill, to the effect that it be read a second
time this day six months, was resumed by
Mr. RICH—He considered that this question was one
of vast importance, and naturally affected the interests of
this country as well as the moral and material prosperity of
India. The measure proposed to make a permanent addi-
tion to the standing army of this country of between 70,000
and 80,000 men in order to meet the requirements for the
force necessary to be maintained in India. There were
many arguments in favour of continuing a local force in
India, and some of them were so powerful that he was sur-
prised hon members could for a moment be induced to
give their sanction to a measure like the present. He
begged also to draw the attention of the house to the
fact that the bill was at valiance with the opinions of the
most competent authorities in regard to the affairs of India.
He called on hon. members who might not be practically
acquainted with the subject to deliberate before they as-
sented to a bill like the present, which :he believed was
pregnant with the most disastrous elements in regard to
English dominion in India.
Mr. TORRENS followed on the same side.

Sir DE LACY EVANS also opposed the bill, and was

The cherries also, where are they ?
I shriek—and Echo answers Eh ?

This time last year a chap could eat,
At every stall, in any street,
Enough to fill a fellow's hat
At one blow out—no more of that

Fruit—don't you wish that you may got,
With all this precious cold and wet ?
Wind, thunder, lightning, hail, and rain
Oh, when will it be fine again?

No gooseberries this blessed year,
No currants will get ripe, I fear ;
Perhaps no apples, rears, or plums,
And I'm at school when Autumn comes.
How shall my sorrow find relief P
For dinner let us have roast beef,
Turkey, plum-pudding, and mince-pie,
Whilst a good fire is blazing high.
And whilst I hear the cold wind blow,
I'll think that snowballs follow snow ;
And hoping soon to skate or slide,
Take Midsummer for Christmas-tide.

THE BELVEDERE COLLECTION OF PICTURES.—
The sale of 25 pictures, forming part of the collection at
Belvedere, the property of Sir Culling Eardley, took place
on Saturday. They brought the astounding sum of £25,887
15s. The celebrated " Immaculate Conception," by Murillo,
was knocked down to Mr. Graves for 9,000 guineas, and a
fine specimen of Reams realised 7,500 guineas.

THE COASTGUARD.

A writer in a contemporary says,— On Thursday,
the 14th ult., the Admiralty scheme of naval re-
tirement was laid before Parliament. In it oc-
curred the following clause :
" The time served in the Coastguard on shore to
count as sea time in the scale of retired pay, in the
proportion of three years in the Coastguard as one
of sea service."

As this appears to be a gross act of injustice to
officers who have devoted themselves for years to
the public service under great disadvantages, I ven-
ture to send a few notes showing the regulations to
which these officers are subject and the duties they
have to perform, which are far more onerous than
the service afloat.

The Coastguard force is essentally naval, and if
this scheme is carried out it will fall with especial
hardship upon the commanders, whose appoint-
ments are held for a limited period, giving them
scarcely sufficient time to get over their first ex-
penses in the purchase of horses, &c., and whom it
is thus proposed to deprive of two-thirds of their
time. Surely, if officers employed in harbour duty
are allowed to count their full time for retirement,
the most deserving officers in the Coastguard cannot
in justice be deprived of this rights?
The following memoranda, will show that com-
manders and lieutenants in the Royal Navy em-
ployed in the Coastguard should be allowed to count
their service as full time for retirement :
1. Because such officers and men of the Coast-
guard as are borne on ships' books are subject to
the same laws, regulations, and discipline as those
serving in the fleet. ( Vide circular No. 268, Admi-
ralty, Ist of October, 1857.)
2. Because seamen from the fleet, serving on
shore under Coastguard officers, are allowed to
count such service as full time in the Royal Navy.
3. Because inspecting commanders and lieu-
tenants of Coastguard are expected to keep their
men in the same state of efficiency as regards disci-
pline and drill as they would on board a man-of-
war. _

4. Because they hays not only the Coastguard
