REGISTRATION OF VOTERS BILL.

-
Mr. M. MILNES, in moving the second reading of this
bill, observed tharit was drawn up to meet a grievance that
existed with reference to the voters of the West Riding of
Yorkshire, and to effect a limitation of the number of the
objections which the revisin barrister might be allowed to
hear in one day.
Mr. E. JAMES considered that the effect of the bill would
be to lead to the introduction of local legislation in regard to
other parts of the country, which would be highly objec-
tionable He concluded by moving that the bill be read a
second time this day six months.
Sir G. C. LEWIS said that the Government had under
consideration a measure, of a general character, which
would moot such cases as the hon. member alluded to.
After some discussion the motion and the amendment
wore withdrawn.

PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT BILL.
This bill went through commutes, and the house re
slimed.

CORONERS' No. 2 BILL.
Mr. COBBETT moved the se( re reading of this bill, the
object of which is to substitute payment of coroners
by salaries instead of fees, which was the present mode of
remuneration. The necessity for the bill was shown by the
fact that 15 counties refused to allow these fees. The hon.
member contended that the effect of such refusal would vir-
tually be to abolish in tote the office of coroner, and there-
fore the legislature was called on to pass some enactment
that would meet the exigencies of the case. He added tha
he proposed the salaries should be regulated by extent of
area and population, and in cases where the magistrates for
counties could not agree with the coroner, the matter
should be settled by the Secretary of State.
Mr. E. JAMES moved, as an amendment, to leave out
from the word " That" to the end of the question, in order
to add the words " a select committee be appointed, to con •
eider the state of the law and practice as regards the taking
of inquisitions in cases of death, and the remuneration now
paid to coroners ; and whether it is expedient that any and
what, alteration should be made in the manner in which
such remumeration is now made; and to consider the
effect and operation of the statutes now in force upon that
subject, and to report thereupon to the house." There
would be two substantial questions that could be settled by
a select committee. Firstly, the question of the remunera-
tion ; secondly, the mode of payment, whether by salary or
by fee ; and thirdly, whether or no the office should be abo-
lished. The hon. and learned member referred to the cir-
cumstances connected with the case of Palmer, and the
large increase in the crime of infanticide, to show the ne-
cessity that existed for the retention of the office.
Sir G. C. LEWIS said that no doubt existed as to the
importance of the office of coroner, but owing to modern
improvements, the diffusion of intelligence by means of
newspapers, and the establishment of county police, that
importance was much diminished. There was an evil
which required a remedy, arising out of the conflict between
magistrates and coroners, and the different decisions given
in different counties, in which cases the Home 'office had
no power of interference. He hadintroduced a bill on the
subject which proposed to confer a right of appeal in cases
of such conflicts, and which should be decided by the Court
of Queen's Bench. He strongly objected to applying for
redress to the Home-office, until it had been shown that
the differences could not be judicially settled. He
objected also to the mode in which the bill pro-
posed to deal with the subject of remuneration,
and he would vote against its second reading. However,
he would not object to the appointment of a select com-
mittee to inquire into the subject.
Mr. 31. SMITH supported the amendment, and consi-
dered that, in addition to the questions specified, the com-
mittee might also inquire beneficially into the mode of the
election of coroners.

Mr. V. SCULLY also supported the amendment.
After some further discussion, in which Mr. Henley, Mr.
J. Locke, Sir G. Grey, Mr. Ingham, Mr. Mills, Lord 11.
;Vane, and Mr. Bovill took part,
Sir G. C. LEWIS said that his bill proposed to apply a
constitutional remedy for an admitted grievance, and left
the questions involved in the bill of the hon. member for
Oldham untouched. However, in deference to the wish
expressed by some hon. members, ho would not press his
bill at present.
Mr. COBBETT said that he had elicited an opinion as to
the utility of the office of coroner, and he was quite willing
to accede to the proposition of the hon. and learned mem-
ber, and allow the bill to be referred to a select committee.
The motion was formally withdrawn, and the amend-
ment was agn ed to.

SPIRITS (IRELAND) ACT AMENDMENT BILL.
The bill went through committee, and the house resumed.

the discussion on Mr. Cobbett's bill, postponed the second
reading of the bill for a fortnight.

The house then resumed.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE-( THIS DAY.)

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

ASSAULT ON A RIFLE VOLUNTEER.—James Fits-
morris was charged as follows :—Mr. Wm. Montgomery,
of 32, Shaftesbury-terrace, clerk, said that at one o'clock
that morning he was in the Black Horse, at the corner of
Jermyn-street, Haymarket, with two friends dressed in
Rifle Volunteer uniforms, when the defendant •said in a
most offensive manner to his friends—" You are smart
fellows," and continued his sneering and jeering. One of
his friends said he had not got the pluck to join the corps,
when he struck him (complainant) a severe blow in the eye,
and he then gave him in charge.
Defendant admitted the assault, and said that he was in-
sulted. He merely said, " How stupid it is to come herein
such a dress."
Mr. Beadon said it was as well perhaps not to wear the
.uniform more than necessary.
The complainant said they had been to Willis's Rooms
to the dinner of their corps.
Mr. Thomas Webb said he was in uniform. Defendant
called them riflemen, and said they were a parcel of
fools, and everybody was laughing at them. His friend
said he had not pluck enough to come out in uniform, and
he then struck him in the face, and afterwards struck him
(witness).
Mr. Beadon said it was a most unprovoked assault, and
he did not see wilt men who chose to belong to rifle corps
were to be chaffed while in their uniform. He had no no-
tion whatever of it, and should fine him £3 for the assault.
EMBEZZLEMENT.—Henry Bailey, a young man in the
employ of Mr. Peter Robinson, draper, of 106, Oxford-
street, was charged with embezzlement.
Eleanor Eades, servant to Miss Connel, of 2, St. John's-
Gardens, Kensington Park, said, that on Saturday, pri-
soner brought a parcel containing a black silk dress, and
Miss Connel gave her £3 to pay the bill, £2 10s. Ild., and
the prisoner gave her the change and a receipt which he
signed.
Robert Patten, cashier to Mr. Peter Robinson, said it was
the prisoner's duty to hand over all monies he received to
him. He had never accounted to him for the sum in ques-
tion, and said that, not having change for a £lO note, he
had not been paid. The signature to the receipt produced
was in the prisoner's handwriting. The prisoner had been
in the employ of the firm for two years.
Prisoner was remanded for a week, but will be committed
for trial.

LA TV INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day.)

HOUSE OF LORDS.

Peers present—The Lord Chancellor, Lord Cranwortb
Lord Wensleydale, Lord Kingston and other peers.
APPEAL.-MAXWELL (PA,UPER) V. M'CLURE.

The further hearing of this appeal was resumed this
morning.

Mr, Adams was heard for the appellant.
The Attorney-General (Sir Richard Bethell, Q.C.) was
heard for the respondent.
Mr. Anderson, Q.C., followed on the same side.
The contention was whether Samuel M'Clure, late of
Wigan and Dumfries, was at the time of his wife's death a
domiciled Englishman or :Scotclintan.
The Court of Session, on the 18th of December, 1857,
held that he was domiciled in Wigan.
Mr. Mundel was heard in reply. The learned counsel
submitted that the evidences showed that Mr. M'Clure
changed his residence from Wigan to Dumfries, and that
his domicile was Scotch, and that his wife's (Ann Donald-
son's) personal estate, which was considerable, should be
distributed according to the law of Scotland, and not the
law of England.
The Lord Chancellor was of opinion that the decision of
the Court of Session ought to be affirmed. It was clear t hat
on the Bth of April, 1851, Mr. M'Clure's residence was in
Wigan, England, and that although he went to live at
Laurel Mount, Dumfries, he did not intend to abandon his
English residence. The Lord Chancellor dismissed the
appeal without costs in respect the appellant was suing in
forma pauperis.
The other noble and learned lords entirely concurred.

JUDICIAL COMMITTEE OF PRIVY COUNCIL.

THZ REV. ALFRED POOLE V. THE BISHOP OF LONDON.

This morning the Judges of the Privy Connell consisted
of Lord. Chelmsford, Sir John Coleridge, Lord Justice
Knight Bruce, and Lord Justice Turner, who sat in the
Council Chamber, Whitehall, for the purpose of hearing the
appeal of the Rev. Alfred Poole, whose licence as curate of
St. Barnabas was some time since suspended by the Bishop
of London, and the decision afterwards confirmed on appeal
to the Archbishop of Canterbury.
Dr. Phillimore, in opening the case for the appellant,
said this was an appeal on behalf of the Rev. Alfred Poole
against the decision of the Archbishop of Canterbury con-
firming-the revocation- of his lieence.--The Bishop of Lon-
don revoked Mr. Poole's licence on account of some alle-
gations that were made against him, under the
98th section of the act applying to such cases.
Upon this decision Mr. Poole appealed to the Arch-
bishop of Canterbury, who conceived that by merely
looking into the case he was complying with the terms of
the act, and confirmed the bishop's decision. Mr. Poole
urged that this was not a heanng, as provided by the
eleventh section of the act, and requested that he might be
heard in due form, and a decision duly pronounced. The
archbishop refused to accede to this request, and
Mr. Poole found it necessary to appeal to the
Court of Queen's Bench for a mandamus. This
was granted, and the archbishop held a Court at
Lambeth Palace, when the Dean of Arches (Dr. Lushing-
ton) pronounced the judgment of the Court, and the Arch-
bishop officially added these words—" With the able assaist-
ance of my learned assessor I have given the merits and
circumstances of this appeal my most serious and careful
consideration. I am of opinion that the proved and
admttted allegations alleged in the language of the
statute are good and reasonable causes for the revoca-
tion of the license and that the Lord Bishop of London
has exercised a sound discretion in revoking the same ; and
I am further of opinion that the course pursued by the
appellant is not in accordance with the rubric or the doc-
trines of the Church of England, but most dangerous and
likely to produce most serious mischief to the cause of
morality and religion." The question to-day before the court
was whether, against the sentence so delivered, there did not
lie an appeal to the Crown. It was a matter of the greatest
importance, as the revocation of the licence by the Bishop of
London tended to prevent him from obtaining preferment
in any other diocese ; and the question so deeply affected
the 6,000 or 7,000 clergymen who were connected with the
Church, He (Dr. Phillimore) had, in connection with this
matter, to submit these propositions :-Ist. That proceed-
ings before the Archbishop of Canterbury were proceedings
before the,Ecclesiastical Court. 2d. That from every EMT
siastical Court there lay an appeal. 3d. That it was the I
duty of the Crown to allow parties facilities for prosecuting
that appeal.
Judgment has not yet been delivered.

T 111 S DAY'S MARKETS.

CORN EXCHANGE.

The show of English wheat in to-day's market was very
moderate. For good and fine samples there was a fair de-
mand at
cult to Monday's currency, but damp parcels were
very
diffi quit.
For foreign wheat—the supply of which was seasonably
good—the inquiry ruled inactive ; nevertheless, no change
took place in the quotations.
Floating cargoes of grain supported last week's currency.
There was a fair demand for barley, at very full prices.
Fine malt maintained previous prices, but the denial-id
was much restricted.
Oats commanded extreme rates, and the transactions,
from want of supply, were almost wholly confined tc4 gra-
naried samples.

Beans, peas, and flour moved off slowly at MondAY., 's quo-
tations.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF LORDS—(YESTERDAY.)
The LORD CHANCELLOR took hirseat on the woolsack
eat five o'clock.

NICE AND SAVOY.
The Earl of ELLENBOROUGII asked how it was that
in the correspondence respecting the proposed annexation
of Savoy and Nice to France, recently laid on the table, no
mention was made of any negotiations between this coun-
try and Russia, Austria, and Prussia?
The Duko of NEWCASTLE said he had no difficulty in
answering the question of the noble earl. • The views of her
Majesty's Government had been transmitted to the three
Powers mentioned by the noble earl. Those communica-
tions consisted of the despatches addressed by Lord John
Russell to Lord Cowley, aud also the answers written
thereto by Lord Cowley. The dates of the despatches re-
ceived from Lord Cowley were the 28th of January
and the 13th of February. The communication to
Berlin was dated the 13th of February, and that to St.
Petersburgh the 25th of the same month. •
The Earl of DERBY asked if a despatch alluded to by
Lord Cowley in' one written by him on the 25th could ba
given to the house. It was not at present included in the
correspondence produced.
The Duke of NEWCASTLE said the despatch was
looked upon as of no importance, but there could be no
objection to its production.
Lord WODE HOUSE laid the despatch in question on
the table.
