IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

-•
HOUSE OF COMMONS.—(Tms DAY.)
The SPEIKER, took the chair at 12 o'clock.

PRIVATE BUSINESS.
The Lords' amendment to the Kilkenny Junction Rail-
way were considered and agreed to, and the bill was ordered
for third reading.

PETITIONS.
Several petitions were presented against the Parochial
Assessment Act, against the extension of the "Wine Licenses
Act to Scotland, for the rejection of the religious profession
clause in the Census Bill, and against the Metropolis Local
Management Act, &c.

NUISANCES REMOVAL AND DISEASES PRE-
VENTION BILL.
On the motion of Zr. LOWE, this bill was re-committed.
An ineffectual attempt was made to count the house.
Mr. KNIGHT moved the omission of clause 1.
There was no discussion on the amendment, and the
committee divided on the question that the clause stand
part of the bill.
Ayes
Noes

Majority. ..... .
The clause was agreed to.
On clause 4,
Mr. A. WATLING TON moved an amendment to the
effect that the expenses incurred exclusively for any single
parish shall be defrayed thereby.
Mr. AYRTON said this was a most objectionable pro-
vision. It empowered a board of guardians elected from 10
parishes to make an order compelling only one of these
parishes to pay the whole expense. The present system
was very defective, but the defect would be considerably
aggravated by the clause. He contended that the equit-
abl principle would be for the Union generally to contri-
bute to any expenses incurred in carrying out the existing
Act.

Mr. NORRIS thought the suggestion of the hon. and
learned member (Mr. Ayrton) would be holding forth pre-
miums to negligent parishes, and he hoped the right hon.
gentleman (Mr. Lowe) would adopt the amendment in his
bill.
Mr. S. ESTCOURT supported the amendment.
Mr. WHALLE Y agreed with his hon, and learned friend
(Mr. Ayrton) as to the unjust character of the amendment.
Mr. HENLEY opposed the bill. There appeared
to be no agreement as to this bill, for everybody had some-
thing to say against some part of the measure. (Laughter.)
He did not find that there was any demand made by the
public rf the alteration now proposed, and which five
years ago was found to create considerable heart-burnings.
Mr. LOWE said he brought the bill forward because the
house, in its pleasure, had destroyed the central machinery
for dealing with questions concerning public health, end
transferred their powers to parochial authorities. There
was at present, in fact, no reap:instil:4a loeal authority for
sanitary purposes. Out of 14,000 parishes in England and
Wales no less than 12,500 were without any sanitary
inspector, and he contended that the practice of fining the
parochial authorities for neglect of sanitory precautions
would be utterly impracticable. He had considered it the
safest course to adhere to the existing law as closely as
possible.
Mr. ADDERLEY considered that legislation on this
subject was desirable, but objected to the provision in the
clause imposing salaried sanitary inspectors throughout the
country. He would wish the right hon. gentleman (Mr.
Lowe) to give the committee some information as to how
the existing system worked as far as it was in operation.
Mr. HENLEY entered into some explanations, and re-
peated what he had previously stated, that this bill
attempted reviving machinery that five years ago was found
inexpedient.
.Mr. S. ESTCOURT suggested that in order to meet the
views of dissentients that an alteration should be made in
the bill, which would render it optional with boards to ap-
point looal inspectors, instead of being compelled to do as
they would be by the provisions of the bill.
Mr. SLANEY said that in several parishes, particularly
near manufacturing towns when houses where run up for
the working classes, sanitary inspection was indispensable.
He considered that so large a number of parishes being at
present without a responsible sanitary officer, was a proof
of the necessity that existed for the measure.
Mr. LOWE refused to adopt the suggestion of the hon.
member (Mr. S. Estcourt).
After a few words from Mr. WHALLEY, the amendment
was withdrawn.

(T4EFT SITTING.)

CRIMINAL COURT.—(TIIIS DAY.)
OLD COURT.
(Before the Recorder.

William M‘Gall surrendered to take his trial for wilful
and corrupt perjury committed by him before a select com-
mittee of the House of Commons in reference to the election
for th 9 town of Berwick-upon-Tweed.

The Solicitor-General, Mr. Welsby, and Mr. Beesley
appeared for the prosecution, and Sir F. Slade and Mr. W.
H. Cooke defended the prisoner.

This prosecution was instituted by direction of the House
of Commons, upon the report of the committee above re-
ferred to. It will be remembered that at the election in
question the candidates were Mr. Hodgson and Mr,
Dudley Coutts Marjoribanks, and the latter was elected .
A petition against his election was presented by Mr. Hodg-
son objecting to the return, which was in due form referred
to a select committee, and certain witnesses were examined
and swore that upon the day of the election the defendant
gave each of them a sum of money in order to induce them
to vote for Mr. Marjoribanks. In consequence of the
statements of these persons the defendant was called before
the committee and certain questions were put to him. It
appeared that he had acted as a law writer in the town of
Berwick-upon-Tweed, and was in several ways connected
with the legal profession, aid in answer to
iiLn, .Lc mat he took an interest in the election, and
wished to get the voters up to poll, but he denied positively
that he had given or offered any money to any of the voters,
and it was upon the statement given upon oath that the
present indictment for perjury was founded.
Mr. May, clerk, assistant to the House of Commons, Mr.
Dew, clerk to the Berwick election committee, and the short-
hand writer, who officially attended, were examined, and the
latter read a number of questions and answers from his
notes, in which the defendant stated most positively that he
did not give a voter named Brown four sovereigns, neither
did he give a voter named Blaylock three sovereigns, for
their votes at the last election.

[The case was proceeding when we went to press.]

the turn and mile post Topaz and White Rose changed
places, and immediately afterwards Topaz struck into some-
thing, and throw P52.0_ After thi. aceid.nt, White Rose
carried on the running, and no material change occurred
until nearing the two-year-old post, when the lot, with the
exception of Duneany took closer order. Before the dis-
tance had been reached, Parmesan and Horace were beaten,
and Syringe began to draw towards the front. Approach-
ing the half-distance Syringe headed White Ross, and
Duneany, who had rapidly made up his lost ground, also
came forward. Syringe, however, without again being
headed, galloped in an easy winner by four lengths. There
were three lengths between the second and third horses.

CITY BETTING—(YzaTERDAY).
The Racing Times says:—The " settling" on Saturday
was very partial, the remainder of the accounts being
carried over till to-day, and owing to Liverpool being,
as we think, unfortunately fixed to commence to-day,
the attendance at the different clubs and places of meet•
ing was limited. The consequence of these untoward
circumstances tended to make speculation on future
events exceedingly dull and uninteresting to a degree.
There were, however, several animals inquired after for
their several engagements, but not with that eagerness we
should have desired to see, nor with any distinct evidence
of a predisposition to select any particular horse or horses
for any large events. It was, however, evident that Thor-
manby had received his quietus, as the offers to lay at one
time were so numerous that what few backers were present
were quite frightened.

No doubt Liverpool will witness a satisfactory termina-
tion to the settling, and then we shall, no doubt, see some
new features in the Goodwin events. The following list of
quotations will show the tendency of the market, and suffi-
ciently indicate the barometer of the sporting world :

The Comtesse de Gibacoa and family have ar-
rived at the Brunswick Hotel, Jermyn-street, from the
Continent.

The Ladies Charlotte and Dorothy Wentworth-
Fitzwilliam have left Edwards' Hotel for Harrogate House,
near Wellingborough.

Lord Thurlow has taken his departure from the
Brunswick Hotel, Jermyn-street, for his seat, Ashfield
Lodge, Suffolk.

ST. GEORGE'S-IN-THE-EAST.—A negotiation has,
it is said; been going on for three or four weeks to enable
the Rev. Bryan King to exchange his living with a clergy-
man near Colchester, in Essex.

Mr. Pollard, the late manager of the London
Joint Stock:Bank, has offered himself as a candidate for the
seat now vacant at the board. Mr. Pollard's intimate
knowledge of the affairs of the bank from its establishment
renders him peculiarly eligible for the office.
THE DUNMOW FLITCHES.—The three flitches of
bacon, proposed to be presented this year by Mr. Harrison
Ainsworth, will not take place as intended, there being
only one happy couple who are claimants. Without com-
petition, all the preliminary fun would be done away with,
and the whole affair would be a dead letter.

The stoppage of Messrs. Rider and Co., leather
factors in Paris, was announced yesterday. The liabilities
are estimated at £45,000, and the event is attributed to the
failure of Messrs. Streatfeild. The books of the house have
been placed in the hands of Messrs. Coleman, Turquand,
and Co.

THE NAVY.

The Blenheim, GO, screw Coastguard ship, Capt.
Edward Tatham, was swung yesterday for the ad-
justment of her compasses. According to present
orders, she goes to Spithead on Thursday and pro-
ceeds thence, after taking in her powder and shell,
to Portland, prior to proceeding to the port of her
destination, Pembroke.
The Sirius, target frigate, has been placed in No.
1 dock, at Portsmouth, for the purpose of having
her copper stripped off and a number of her copper
bolts knocked out, preparatory to the forthcoming
gunnery experiments -upon the various targets
affixed to her broadside.
Two artillerymen, named George Norman, 4th
battery, 4th brigade, and John Hyde, horse brigade,
convicted at a garrison court-martial at Woolwich
of desertion and making away with their kits. were
yesterday flogged in the Riding-school, receiving 50
lashes each man, the maximum at present permitted,
and in addition are to be imprisoned 112 days in
Fort Clarence.
The paddlewheel steamvessel Rhadamanthus,
Master-Commander F. R. Sturdee, arrived at Wool-
, with on Sunday evening at 9, having performed the
run from Portsmouth in 23 hours and a quarter.
The officers of the ship give a most favourable
account of the working of Mr. Wetherhead's super-
heating steam apparatus, and state that the economy
in fuel as verified by the consumption of coals was
equal to from 20 to 25 per cent., and that the labour
of the stokers is considerably reduced, two watches
being now sufficient to keep up the fires in the place
of three as heretofore.

The Dee, paddle steamer, Master-Commander
Pullen, has arrived at Portsmouth from Woolwich,
and has been taken into the steam basin to discharge
boilers and machinery for the Pelican and other
vessels at that port.
The Cygnet, screw gunvessel, has commenced re-
ceiving her boilers and machinery in the steam
basin at Portsmouth.

be flag-lieutenant of the Chesapeake; Edward
Chambers, acting third-class assist.-engineer to the
Bloodhound, as supernumerary • James C. Meagher
and Edward W. Gordon have been promoted to be
paymasters ; and A. H. Grey, clerk to the St. George.
