FIRE INSURANCES.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said those
who had paid their insurances in advance for a oonaider-
able number of years did so at their own risk as to what
might be done by Parliament. Had the duty been re-
veersd he did not think those persons would have asked
to be allowed to pay the increased charge. (Laughter.)
It was not the custom of the Government to return pay-
ments made subject to the action of Parliament.
CRAWLING CABS.

Mr. BRUCE, in repiyto 6a Leslie, said Col. Render..
son, the Chief Commisioner of Police, was making ar-
rangements for providiu6 additional .taacliog places for
cabs, with a view of decreasing the obstruction caused by
" crawling cabs." (Laughter.)
BYCICLES IN HYDE PARK.

PUBLIC STATUES.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said it was
quite true ho bad said that it was not the rule for Parlia-
ment to erect statues to private persons. Government
erected statues to Nelson and Sir John Franklin, and these,
Putting aside Kings —(laughtor)—were all the instances
in which such a step had 1031.1 taken. The statues to those
British worthies that Ind been erected had been brought
about by private subscription, and that being the case he

the police in acting o❑ their own responsibility and firing

STEALING CORN.—A STRANGE DEFENCE.—DanieI
Beckett, a carman in the employ of Mr. Bayley, market
gardener, of Chiswick, was charged before Mr. D'Eyn-
court with stealing two bushels of corn from Mr. Wm.
Freeman, of Alridge's Horse Repository, St. Martin's-lane.
A. foreman in Mr. Freeman's employ, named :Morgan,
having reason to suspect the prisoner, who was in the
habit of coming for the manure, watched him ;that morn-
ing, and saw him put 2i bushels of corn in a basket,
and as s'on as he saw that he was detected he emptied
the corn into the dung-hole.
The prisoner pleaded guilty, and said he took the corn
to give to his employer's horses.

Mr. D'Eyncourt asked the prisoner whether Mr. Bayley
did not allow him corn for his horse ?

The prisoner said he did allow some.

Mr. D'Eyncourt said that acting on the assumption that
the prisoner took the corn to give to the horse, he should
only commit him for 6 weeks, although ho was afraid
that the prisoner intended to sell it.

THE KHEDIVE.

Ismail Pasha, the Khedive of Egypt, has arrived at
Brussels, and has met with an enthusiastic reception. It
is worthy of note that the escort was at the station in very
good time, and SO were the great functionaries who
received the Khedive. In fact, his Highness was three-
quarters of an hour late, the inhabitants of the cities on
the route being anxious to do honour to the illustrious
visitor, and frequent stoppages being requisite for that
purpose.

ADDRESS TO LORD DEBBY.

An address congratulating the Earl of Derby on his con-
duct in the late debate is being largely signed by the work-
ing men in Lancashire. The address concludes as follows :
"In the late parliamentary debates the upholders of our
ancient Constitution have suffered a disastrous defeat, and
have seen its fundamental principles subverted. We
congratulate your lordship that, so far as unanswerable
argument and moving eloquence could avail, you strove
to avert that calamity ; and while we recognise in that
reverse the chastising hand of an all-wise Providence, we
desire to offer to your lordship our poor tribute of honour
or the solemn and pathetic protest you have put on record,
against the ' moral turpitude and political folly' of that
course which the Parliament of England seems bent on
pursuing."

TUE PROPOSED ST.ATE-SECRETARYSHIP

FOR SCOTLAND.

The question of a Secretaryship for Scotland has
entered upon a new phase. We stated last week that an
arrangement was in contemplation to raise the Lord-
Advocate to the post of Parliamentary Secretary, leaving
the legal business in the bands of the Solicitor-General. It
now appears that this settlement of the question is not at all
to the taste of the hulk of the Scottish members, who will
be satisfied with nothing less than that the office shall be
made one that a layman may hold, while the legal func-
tionaries are left as hitherto to their legal duties. It is
said that Mr. Gladstone is in favour of this new arrange-
ment, and that it will soon be carried out. Some of our
contemporaries have even gone so far as to designate Mr.
Baxter as the first secretary. But this is certainly
premature. Mr. Baxter has busied himself much about
the question, and he has made a greater mark in the House
than any of the other younger Scotch members. It is not
improbable, therefore, that if the office were once created
Mr. Baxter world have the offer of it, and if so, we may
be sure he would accept it. But the office is not yet
created. Its duties and its powers are not yet defined.
When the office is created, it will be time enough to talk
of the man who is to fill it.—London Scotsman.

LONDON, SATURDAY, MAY 8, 1869.

Yesterday the Irish Church Bill passed triumph-
antly through Committee. On reaching its final
clause, seeing •tbat the number of that clause was
Sixty-three, it may be said to have attained its
Grand Climacteric. The passing of that, as slightly
amended, was naturally enough the signal for
cheering on the side of the Government. But,
when that was a:Tomplishal, the Committee had
still to lharkbick to several clauses the con-
sideration of which had been postponed, and
to one or two almost of what might be called an in-
tercalary character—such as an entirely new clause
added to or interpolate 1 in the Bill in lieu of
clause 35, which had area ly been negatived ; or,
quite strictly speaking intercalary, such as the half
dozen financial clauses introduced, in sequence, yes
tcrtlity on the proposition of the Prime Minis-
ter immediately after clause 56 in the Bill
as originally constructed. When these, however, and
other proposed new clauses had in time been seve-
rally dealt with, the labour of the Committee was

THZ RELIGIOUS TRACT SOCIETY.

In the evening the Religious Tract Society held its
meeting. The report stated that the past year had been
one of singular activity, both at home and abroad, and
above 200 new tracts and books and five periodicals, com-
prising 850,000,000 pages, had been published;during the
year. The number of publications issued from the depo-
sitory had exceeded 40,000,000, and the proximate
circulation from the formation of the societyl,2B6,ooo,ooo.
The total receipts, including the balance left from last
year, in ere £119,170 Os. 6d., of which £10,488 10s. 11d;
were subscriptions and other free contributions, and
£4,818 9s. 9d. were legacies. The total expenditure was
£112,611 3s. 2d.; £3,500 had been invested, and a balance
remained in hand of £3,058 17s. 4d. The noble chairman
delivered an energetic address, in which he declared that
there were few societies in the present day that were equal
to this society, and, excepting the Bible Society, none
superior. Addresses were delivered by the Rev. Arch-
deacon Hunter, the Rev. W. Muirhead, the Rev. James
Fleming, Mr. J. Ashworth, Mr. J. Gurney Hoare, and
Mr. C. Reed, M.P.

THE CASE OF THE REV. MR. BENNETT,

OF FROME.

In the Court of Arches, the case of " Shepherd v. the
Rev. W. J. E. Bennett" again came on, before Sir R.
Phillimore, on Friday. It will be remembered that on
Friday last the court refused to accept letters of request
from the Bishop of Bath and Wells in order that certain
charges of alleged heresy on the part of Mr. Bennett
should be heard and determined, and his Lordship ex-
pressed an opinion that it was a case for the Bishop to
hear, embracing as it did some of the awful mysteries of
our religion.

Mr. A. J. Stephens, Q.C., applied to the Court for
leave to appeal to the Judicial Committee of the Privy
Council. His lordship had given a learned and elaborate
judgment, and declined to accept the letters of
request, on the ground that no reason was alleged why
the case was sent to the court to be heard in the first
instance.

Sir R. Phillimore was of opinion that he ought to
grant the application for leave to appeal, and it would
decide the two questions whether it was competent for the
court to refuse letters of request, or whether they were
letters of command ; and secondly, whether he had pro-
perly exercised his discretion in this case.
Mr. Stephens asked if his lon'shit) would, as in the case
of "Martin v. Mackonochie," allow an authenticated
copy of his judgment, as it would be of great assistance
to the Judicial Committee and counsel engaged in the
case.

His Lordship acceded to the application.

FREE TRADE V. PROTECTION..

The hopes of the American Free-traders etre rising. It
-is noticeable that New England, which was once the
great centre of Protection, is now at least tolerant of
adverse opinions. A great meeting was bold at Boston on
the 20th of April for the purpose of, organising a " Reform
League," to agitate for a financial revolution on the
principles of Free Trade. Such men as Mr. W.
Lloyd Garrison, J. Quincy Adams, and many others of
mark, are members of the "League." Besides Mr. Gar-
rison, several other New England anti-slavery agitators
have joined the cause of Free Trade. The perseverance
and energy of these men are not to be despised. " The con-
test will probably grow until it becomes one of the chief
political strifes of the country."

THE PRINCESS OF WALES AND THE CRETAN INSURGENTS.
Some of the leaders of the Cretan insurrection—not
those who surrendered on the faith of an amnesty—were
tried by the Turkish tribunals and sentenced to fifteen
years' imprisonment. Whilst the Prince and the Princess
of \Vales were at Constantinople sonic of these prisoners
managed to send a petition to the Princess, imploring her
to intercede with the Sultan on their behalf. The
Princess, of course, referred the matter to her husband,
who prudently declined to interfere ; but the circumstance
got to • the ear of the Grand Vizier, who at once
gratified the wish of the Princess by pardoning
the offenders. They were released on Wednesday. There
is no reason to doubt that the Porte was justified in punish-
ing these men, and their release is another instance of
that exquisite courtesy with which the Sultan has treated
his royal visitors. Perhaps if the Sultan visits England
again our magnates may condescend to learn by his
example.

THAMES.

August Xresor was brought up on remand before 311..
Benson charged with assaulting and wounding Johann
Pauer. _ _ . .

Mr. Pelham, solicitor, defended the prisoner.
The parties were employed up to Tuesday last in Messt s.
Briebach's large sugar house in Denmark-street, Ratc!iff-
highway. At the termination of their day's labour on
Tuesday they went into a washing-room set apart for
the men the complainant to wash his trousers,
the other to wash h's boots. A trivial dispute
arose between them, which ended in a violent quarrel,
and they attacked each other fiercely. The prisoner
knocked the complainant down. Kreser kicked hint and
stamped upon him, and broke his jaw. Hu appeared in
court a ghastly spectacles, his head and face were enve-
loped in surgical bandages ; he was as pale as a spectre,
and in a weakly condition from loss of blood.
Mr. Benson sentenced the prisoner to two months'
and hard labour.

RUSSIA AND TURKEY.

According to the Memorial Diplomatique, Russia has
met with a rebuke from the other European Powers. It
will be remembered that the St. Petersburg Government
recently addressed a memorandum to the various
Cabinets, asking for their co-operation in insisting
upon a modification of the very strict naturalisation law
decreed by the Porte. It was stated a short time
ago that the Turkish Government was disposed voluntarily
to modify this decree. Whether this be the case or not,
the Powers have one and all refused to interfere, says the
Memorial Diplomatique, and Russia has withdrawn her
request, which may be regarded as null and void. The
object of the Turkish law which has given offence to the
Czar's Government was to prevent the wholesale
naturalisation of Turkish subjects in Russia and Greece.

MANCHESTER BACES.—TIIO now course which it was
necessary to make, owing to gr. Fitzweral i's refusal to re-
new the leas,' of the course on the Castle Irwe
will be completed in time fur the meetiug la %Vhii-wee;;.
The entrance is from the Eccles New-road, and it is
surrounded by high walls as effectirdly p• &wind, 6r at is
views of the racing. The courso itself da < ii,en laid out
so as to avoid as far as possible sharp turns, and has a
straight ruu-in of 1,000 yards. The Gran" stand has
Leen remodelled and greatly improved since last year. The
Letting ring has been raised 31t. at the rails, and slolu
upwards to the stand, and at the top of the slope and just
in front of the refreshment rooms two minor stands have
boon erected. The stabling is extensive and said to be
admirably arranged.

A telegram from Nashville, Tennessee, dated
April 23, states that "Ex-President Johnson was an-
nounced to speak to-day at Pulaski, and at Columbia to-
morrow. While at Athens, Alabama, he received the n-
telligence of the death of his son, Colonel Robert Johnsoa
and hastened homeward, passing through Nashville thi
afternoon."
