THE MISSING P ,FIC.

(Prom five New York Tribune.)
The Arabia has arrived, bringing no tidings of the
steamier Pacific. The Arabia left Liverpool 37 days after
the missing steamer. Upon the supposition that the
Pacific was di,aned when she was half-way over, she
had then 30 days to get back to port. Yet, of course►
neither this nor any other supposition can be made with
certainty. It is still less likely that she has been trying
to make a port in the United States. It is now fifty
days since she put to seal and if she bad met with so
accident, and still kept on her ccurse, she could hardll
have failed to reach our coast before this. Possiblit
however, she has sailed in a crippled condition for the
Azores or Western Island•. If she bad attempted this,
five-and-twenty days would be a fair allowance of tin3o
for her to reach Fayal. Supposing her to bare arrived
safely there in that time, we could scarcely hear from bet
in less than thirty days more, and might not under forty
or fifty. The communication with the Western Islands
is wholly by sailing vessels, and the intercourse unfre'
quent. We ought ❑ot, therefore, to consider the Fafetf
of the Pacific wholly out of the question before the first
week in April.

But notwithstanding the cherished hope of her safety,
based upon a highly probable mode of proceeding in mei
Of the breaking of a shaft or other serious damage to her
machinery, her continued absence fills the mind with air
prehension. She had been out, at the sailing of the
Arabia, five days longer than was the Atlantic at the tins°
of her memorable disaster—the latter having reached Colic
on the 32d day after leaving port. It seems hard to ad'
init the loss of this noble ship ; bat while we consider the
chances of her safety, we must not forget the circnor
stances under which she was making her voyage. She
had a new master and a new engineer. Both were un'
doubtediy competent, but, both, of course, ambitious. The
new ship Persia was behind her but three days distant, and
with the highest reputation for speed and great expecte..
tions of her performance on her first trip. It is natural to
suppose that master and engineer would strain every nerve
to make the Pacific do her best, and to lose as little
time as possible from any precautionary policy on the
voyage. The ecean was filled with vast fields of floating
and berg ice. The concurrent testimony of numerous
arrivals goes to establish that scarcely ever was the
usual path between this coast and England before so ob-
structed. is it not to be feared that, ignorant perhaps
of the extent, or it may be of the existence, of this un-
usual impediment at this season of the year, the eager
commander of this ill-fated ship, his eyes straining be•
hind him cs well as before, may, in the darkness or night,
have driven his craft straight upon the desolate and
turbulent masses of Arctic ice, and ere he was aware
f.,und himself and all on board suddenly being engulphed
in the angry and sullen and darkened sea ? If this sad
possibility be the fact, who shall ever rise to tell the tale
of the Pacific ?

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OP COMMONS. —(TEaTERDAY.)
( Continued from, our third Edition of last Night.)

SUPPLY.
On the vote for 91,684/. for the Royal parks,
pleasure-grounds, Sto.,
Mr. DAVIS said he should like to know what legal
obligation exited with respect to the pavement to which
allusion had been made. He should be unwilling to
vote for a reduction of the grant if the Government
were compelled by law to pr Ivlde such a footway.
Sir J. PAKINGTON said there was a charge of
1,600/. for paving the footroad of the Bir.lcage- walk.

Now, he did not see any reason for spending money to
compel the public to walk on a pavement if they prefer-
red walking on gravel. (Hear, bear.) He o,rtainly
should vote against that item, and was not satisfied with
the explanation relative to the pavement at Knights-
bridge. HO approved of the course which had been
taken in filling up the reservoir in the green-park.
Mr. H. DRUNINIOND said, if it was necescary for
the house to endeavour to protect the Government from
pressure from without, it was not less necessary to pro-
tect a metropoli.an member from pressure of that de-
scription. (Hear and laughter.) It the right boa baro-
net had only exhibited at the reservoir a board, bearing
the words " Rubbish may be shot here," the expense of
filling by the basin would have been caved. (Hear.)
Sir J. SHELLEY believed that flag pavements were

more economical (flan pavements of any other descrip-
tion, a proof of which might 13•3 seen in the fact that fins
were almost invariably used by pariah authorities.
The CHAIRMAN said the original amount proposed
by the vote WM 91,6841. An amendment ha f been
moved, that it be reduced by the sum of 5,0001., and
another, that it be reduced by the sum of 22,140/ The
question he had to put was, that a sutra of 69,544/. be
granted.
The committee then divided. The numbers were—
Ayes 35
Noes .
M,,j,rity against the reduction ---84
The CHAIRMAN then put the question that the
grant be for 86.6341., being a reduction of 5,0001. from
the original vote.

IRELAND.

DUBLIN, MONDAY.
On Saturday night a number of persons were assent•
bled at a wake in the top room of a house in Coleman-
street. The floor gave way, and the house fell, and 18
persons were killed on the spot. In the course of yes-
terday (Sunday), three other bodies were discovered,
making a total of 21 killed. It is feared that many
more will have been injured.
The f,rged deed for 2,0001., on which the money has
been paid, ha 4 been discovered in this city, and the
f irger, who ii sot arrested, is a man who held a high
position in society. Although the deed came over here
from London the forgery was committed in Dublin, and
the instrument bears an Irish stamp. Inquiries are in
progress, as it is feared other forgeries to a large amount
have been committed. However, these frauds had no
connection with the late Mr. Sadleir.

The only information to be obtained about the Tippe-
rary Bank is of a negative kind, nothing about its affairs
being likely to transpire until some public proceeding on
the subject take place in open court. We are assured
that it was only an attack of bronchitis that induced
Master Murphy to have the examination of Mr. James
Sadleir conducted at his (the Master's) private house,
but that much valuable infoimation was obtained from
Mr Sadleir on the occasion. In the meantime there is
nothing to induce a hope of more favourable results in
the winding up of this unfortunate concern.

TREATIES of PEACE.—It may be interesting at this
moment to notice the dates of various important treaties
of peace to which this country has been one of " the
great contracting parties." The peace of Ryswick
(general) was signed on Friday, Sept. 20, 1697 ; that of
Utrecht (succession), Monday, March 13, 1733 ; that of
Aix-la Chapelle (Spain and Fra-ce), Tuesday, April SO,
1748 ; that cf Paris (general), Thursday, February 10,
1763 ; that of Paris (America), Sat urday, November 30,
1782 ; that of Paris (France and Spain), Monday, Janu-
ary 20, 1783 ; that of Holland, Tuesday, September, 2,
1783; that of Amiens (Revolution), Saturday, March 27,
1802 ; that of Ghent (America) Saturday, December 24,
1814 ; and that of Paris (general), Monday, May 30,
1814. So far as we are aware, the treaty of peace signed
on Sunday—the fifth peace concluded in that capital
within the last 93 years—is the only ono which has re-
ceived the formal signatures of the Plenipotentiaries on
a Sunday. Here is a fact for the Sabbatarians, who
will, doubtless, if consistent, contend that to secure the
peace is neither a work of necessity nor of
Manchater Guardian.

THE SUNDAY BAND QUESTION.

A correspondence has taken place between "the com-
mittee for the public demonstration in favour of the Sun-
da., baudo" dad Sir C. 0.-uyi i“ ravrozzoo to the ploxing
of music in the parks on Sundays.
Sir G. Grey directed a letter, to be sent to the commit-
tee, which referred to a notice that there would be a
public demonstration in favour of public bands on Sun-
day next in Hyde-park, at four o'clock, and stated that,
"although her Majesty's Government have no desire to'
interfere in any way with the free expression of opinion
on this question on the part of the inhabitants of the
Metropolis," yet that the royal parks were open for the
enjoyment and recreation of. the public under certain
conditions, and that assemblages of the people to bear
speeches or to pass resolutions were wholly inconsistent
with the objects for which the parks had been made
accessible to the people. The letter then intimates that
the,police and park-keepers would, if necessary, prevent
any such meeting, expressing a hope, however, that no
such meeting would be attempted.
To this letter an answer was sent by the committee
to Sir G. Grey, signed by Mr. Pratt, the secretary,
stating that the committee would use their best endea-
vours to prevent any such demonstration iu Hyde-park,
"having only in view the one otject of providing the
innocent recreation of music for the benefit of the people
ou Sundays."
A letter was also sent on the part of Sir G. Grey to
Mr. Oury, the leader of the Brighton Pavilion band, in
which . Sir George stated that, having heard that the
band played last Sunday in Hyde-park, he felt it his
duty to point out to Mr. Oury that the royal parks have
been opened for the enjoyment and recreation of the
!Tebbe under certain regulation; which do not permit of
Innientierformance of private bands, or of other anima-
-5 lan any day in those parks without the previous
sanction of the authorities under whose control they are
the performance
placed. Sir George, therefore expressed a hope that

and passed :—Leicester and Welford Road, St. Ives
and West Cornwall Railway, Gravesend Improvement,
Scarborough Water, Shrewsbury Water and Sleaford,
and Tattershall Turnpike Trusts.
REFORMATORY SCHOOLS (SCOTLAND) BILL.

The Duke of ARGYLL rose to move the second
reading of this bill, which was to remedy a defect in the
act passed in the year 1854. The present bill empowered
Sheriffs to send children to reformatory schools instead
of committing them to prisons.
The bill was read a second time without opposition.

SEEDS.

The arrivals of linseed have been moderate. We con.
tinue our quotations of 49$ to 50s for fair average Calcutta,
up to 52s for fine Patna grain. The prices of linseed cakes
are a shade in favour of buyers, and sales can only be
made with difficulty. The stock of rapeseed is very large ;
all out of condition, with a few exceptions, and is selling
at a wide range in prices.

WOOL.

Owing to the continuous arrival of colonial wool the
public sales held last week were very moderately attended,
and the biddings ruled heavy. The advance in price re•
ported at the opening has, therefore, been lost. ThA
lowing rates have been paid since our last :—Sydney—

Hobart Town ; 740 from Launceston ; 58 from Mogador ;

The daily useof this aromatic and delicious Sauce is the best safe-
guard to health.

silver medals are to be awarded to the successful
con?petitors.

MILITARY FRACAS.

PLYMOUTH, Sunday Morning.—The peace of those
portions of the town usually the haunts of the military
daring their hours of idleness was disturbed last evening
by a fracas between the Limerick Militia and the Royal
Marines. So far as the facts can be ascertained the Irish-
men had made up their minds to give the Marines a good
" bating," as a souvenir prior to their leaving the garri-
son, which it was expected they would do in a few days.
The Limericks accordingly assembled in large numbers
in Storehouse-lane and the neighbourhood, and soon
began to show fight, making a fierce onslaught on any
unfortunate "jolly" that happened to come in the way.
The "time of day," however, was soon passel to the
Marines, and they were speedily reinforced, and soon
drove the militiamen out of Stonehouse. The latter, on
getting over the bridge, took possession of the Govern-
ment quarry, where they found a plentiful supply of
stones prepared for the roads. Armed with these wea-
pons they for some time kept the Marines ininheck, but
these being the older soldiers, of the two, exercised a
piece of generalship which succeeded in drawing the
Limericks from their stronghold. The Marines feigned
a retreat, when the Limericks left the quarry in pursuit ;
the Marines, however, suddenly made a halt, and in turn
drove the Limericks past the quarries up the hill to the
main guard. Here a company of, the Limericks hap-
pened to be on guard, and were ordered to drive the
Marines back. This duty the soldiers were nothing loath
to perform, but to their credit it must be stated that they
used their arms with temper and discretion, and though
several of the Marines were injured none of the wounds
were of a very serious character, being the result of
blows only, except in one instance, where a man re-
ceived a stab in the arm. The officer in charge of the
guard also wounded one of the Marines in the face by a
blow with the flat, side of his sword.
Pickets shortly after arriving, the disturbance was
soon quelled, and the men ordered to their respective
barracks.

PRUSSIA.

BERLIN, May, 31.—Sir William Williams, of
Kars, is to dine at the King's table to-day. The
Emperor of Russia and all about him treat the
General with the greatest distinction, as is also the
case with all the military here. The Prince of
Prussia seeing him a few days back, while viewing
the interior of a church at Potsdam, manoeuvred
so as to come round by one of the side aisles and
meet the General face to face, introduced himself
to him, shook him by the hand, and entered
kindly into conversation with him.
BERLIN, May 28.—Last week a storm disturbed
the usual calm which distinguished the sittings of
the little chamber of Meiningen representatives.
The Ministry brought forward a message calling on
the house to give its assent to the publication of the,
federal law for the " prevention and punishment of
abuses of the press." To this the committee de-
murred, saying that it saw no reason for hurry in
the matter, in small states, when great powers like
Prussia and Austria had hitherto abstained from
adopting, or at all events from publishing, this re-
strictive law. Thereupon the Minister replied by
denouncing the pretext for refusal to be "hamisch"
(knavish or malicious). Upon this a dozen mem-
bers rose, and demanded that the minister should be
forthwith called to order, and retractation of the
offensive expression ; but in lieu of submitting, the
offender declared that ministers were no ways sub-
servient to the chamber, and 6 the house deter-
rained to appeal to the sovereign. The quarrel was
settled, however, next day, by a queer compromise;
the minister retracted, and the house assented to
the measure.

Stutgard journals announce that the King of
Wurtemburg has sent a considerable number of
fine red deer from his preserves-as a present to the
Emperor Napoleon, for the purpose of improving
the breed in the imperial forests.
The liberal side of the second chamber has lost
one of its most efficient members, by the resigna-
tion of M. Reichensperger, a counsellor of the Co-
logne Appeal Court.
London, England, 1856-06-02

RUSSIA.

The official Gazette of Posen contains a telegra-
phic despatch received from Warsaw, stating that,
at a ball held in that city, at which the Polish no-
bility were present, the Emperor of Russia an-
nounced that he had signed a general amnesty,
which was to extend to all the Polish refugees and
emigrants. The names of a few noted individuals
are excluded from the benefit of this Imperial act.
An Imperial ukase places the educational esta-
blishments of Russia under the Emperor's special
superintendence.

Ganeral Ney was to have embarked at St. Peters-
burg on the 21st by the steamer for Stettin. The
Emperor before he left for St. Petersburg sent to
General Ney the cordon of the order of Ste. Anne.
The Corriere Italiane of Vienna contains the
following rather extraordinary piece of intelligence
from St. Petersburg :—" A large body of troops
are now on their march towards the countries
washed by the Indus and the Ganges. Arrange-
ments lately entered into at St. Petersburg leave
no doubt on the subject. The Russian Govern-
ment is, moreover, endeavouring to turn to ac-
count the experience acquired during the late war,
and has it in contemplation to introduce material
reforms i n the military administration of the country.
The army is to be completely re-organised. There-
will be eight special armies, each composed of eight
corps cl'armee. Regiments in time of peace are to
have dye battalions of from 500 to 1,000 men each,
and eight in war. The riflemen will be considerably
increased in number, the heavy cavalry will be
disbanded.

SUPPLY.

The house then went into committee of supply.
On the vote of 3,4611. towards defraying the expences
of the Ecclesiastial Commissioners till the 31st March,
1857,

Mr. W. WILLIAMS objected to the vote, on the
ground that this sum being exclusively for Church pur-
poses ought to to be paid out of the funds of the Church.
The committee then divided on the vote, when the
numbers were—
For the vote 166
Against it 66
Majority —loo
—(Loud cries of "Hear, hear.")
The vote was agreed to
16,0231. was asked for to defray the expenses of the
Charity Commissioners.
In reply to questions from Mr. MOWBRAY and Mr.
LIDDELL,
Lord PALMERSTON said it was the intention of
the Government to introduce a bill this session founded
on the last report of the Charity Commissioners.
Mr. W. WILLIAMS called the attention of the com-
mittee to the increase in this vote of 3,6321. 103., and he
wished to know the reasons for the appointment of three
new charity commissioners, at an expense of 2,4001. per
annum, and he moved that the vote be reduced to the
amount of last year, viz., 12,391/. 10a. The hon. mem-
ber remarked on the unsatisfactory manner in which the
charity commissioners dealt with the charitable funds of
the country.
Sir J. TROLLOPE also complained of the conduct of
the Charity Commissioners with reference to the chari.
ties in Spalding, in Lincolnshire, which was opposed to
the interests and wishes of the inhabitants, and contrary
to the will of the donors.

Mr. HEADLAM also complained of the corn.
missioners.

Mr. BAINES was unable to give any reply to
the specific cases mentioned by hon. members with
reference to the conduct of the commissioners in appr ;-
priating certain funds. He could inform the house that
the Lord Chancellor in a few days would introduce five
or six bills in the House of Lords founded on the Charity
Commissioners' report, for carrying out certain schemes
therein recommended. One was a scheme for Dulwich
College, and also one for each of four or five other places.
He defended the conduct of the commissioners, as the
best they could pursue under the circumstances.
Mr. HENLEY opposed the reduction of the vote.

THE MILITIA.

A very numerous and highly influential meeting of
Irish peers and members of the House of Commons,
lords-lieutenant of counties, and colonels of regiments of
militia, took place on Saturday, at the Thatched House
Tavern, St. James's-street—the Marquis of Donegal in
the chair, supported by the Marquises of Headfort,
Clanricarde, Conyngharn, and Dawnshire ; Lords Claud
Hamilton, Bective, Gort, Barnard, Granard, Dungan-
non, Donoughmore, and Glengall ; Hon. H. Corry, M. P.,
Hon. H. Cole, M.P., Col. F. Greville, M.P., Colonel
Dunne, M.P., Sir W. Verner, Bart, 14. P., Sir Charles
Coote, Bart., M.P., Hon. Colonel Maule, Hon. W.
Tighe, M.P., Col. Taylor, M.P., Colonel Dickson, M.P.,
Colonel Palliser, M.P., Colonel Ouseley Higgins, M.P.,
Daniel O'Connell, Esq., M.P., Richard Davison, Esq.,
Colonel Vandeleur, M.P., Hon. Colonel O'Callaghan,
George Macartney, Esq., M.P., Thomas Connolly,
Esq., M.P., F. B. Beamish, Esq., M.P., S. E. De Vere,
Esq., M.P., J. F. Maguire, Esq., M.P., W. T. Fagan,
Eiq., M.P., &c.

We understand they appointed a committee for the
purpose of drawing up a plan to be submitted to the
Government, for rendering the staff of the regiments of
militia while in a disembodied state more efficient and
effective than they are at present. We believe, likewise,
that they have invited the colonels of the English and
Scotch regiments to join them ; and when their plan
shall be agreed upon, they intend moving an address to
the Qieen in both Houses of Parliament, in order that
their suggestions may be more maturely considered and
brought under the notice of her most gracious Maj,sty.
We hear that the 13 regiments of militia quartered in
the camp at Aldershott have received orders to move
this week to their different counties for the purpose of
disembodiment, and the Antrim Regiment of Mlles is
to move to•morrow to Liverpool, there to embark for
Belfast. Why, with the chances of an American war
staring us in the face, all these fine regiments, who are
now in prime order, are sent away, to be dispersed to
the winds, and rendered totally ineffective, is to us
most incomprehensible. But it is alof a piece with the
rest of the military matters with which the present Go-
vernment have had anything to do.
Earnestly and sincerely do we hope that there will be
no mere truckling or knocking under on this America❑
question. We have done all, and more than we ought
to have done, to secure peace.
London, England, 1856-06-02

FRANCE.

PARIS, Sunday Evening.—There is no longer
any doubt about his Majesty visiting Algeria.
Unless some unexpected events should occur the
Emperor will probably leave France by the end of
June. The necessary arrangements for the voyage
are already organised, and the objects de service are
already on their way to Laghonat.
A favourable change has taken place in the
weather. The greater part of yesterday was wet,
and the afternoon was as cold as in the month of
February. This day is fine ; the sun is warm, and
a smart breeze is rapidly drying up the ground.
Several times the sky was covered with heavy
masses of cloud, and we expected the re-commence-
ment of the deluge. We are most agreeably dis-
appointed ; the thick masses are reduced to fleecy
patches, and the sky presents a favourable appear-
ance. A week's hot sun will do an immensity of
good.

The following telegraphic despatch has been re-
ceived :

" MADRID, May 31.—The bidding for the conversion
of 200 millions of reals of the Floating Debt into Three
per Cent Stock touk place to-day. The Government
had fixed a minimum of 40. The bidders offered 41 and
a few centimes. The tenders exceeded the sum of 200
millions demanded by the Government."

Last week's imports were 39 bales from Hamburg.
