THE EX-KING OF OUDE.
The Marquis of CLANRICARDE asked whether
the statement by the President of the Board of Control
In the Rouse of Common., that the ex-King of Oude
benow a prisoner in Fort William, and was about to
brought to trial, was correctly stated.
Esrl DERBY said the answer given in the other
house to the question was not altogether incorrectly
al re-
ported. The King of Oude, a p
India Com risoner of the East
was now a prisoner at Ccut.a,
tinder suepicipany
on of having promoted the revolt. Upon
the result of the investigation—which would be a more Correct term than criminal trial—as to how far he might
be implicated in the revolt, would depend the nature of
the tneasures to be adopted against him.
CHESTER AND HOLYHEAD RAILWAY.
IThis bill was read a third time after a few words from
.ord COLCHESTER, who said the three companies
ad undertaken the contract for the conveyance of the
mails to Dublin for a term of 34 years, and Lord
ItIDESDALE who said he was not altogether satisfied that
e rights of the public had been sCfficient,y protected
03, this bill
but as the noble lord the Postmaster-Gene-
to ral moved the third reading he did not feel justified
°Plinaing the measure.
CONVOCATION.
Co
Lord REDESDALE moved for copies of the Acts of
nvocation in the province of Canterbury at the session
tt the 29th of June, 1855, and 6th of Fob., 1857, as
;81548 to any communication to be made to the
IQ :vocation of York, or the President of the same, to-
;,,:eber with the replies to such communication,, or
te""er of them. Also a copy of the Queen's writ to the
•tehbishop of vocati 014 York, directing the assembling of the
4t. onthe province
on the 10th of December
b The BiShop of RIPON said he bad been appointed
lu
Me prelates of the province of York to offer
tne explanation on the subjnt to which the noble
o,tl bad referred. He denied that any coin-
-IThioation had taken place between the prelates
1,91 e two pr winces between June, 1855, and Feb.,
077. Ho had no objection also to the production of
;I Queen's writ, but he was at a loss to con-
f" *iet object there was in view in obtaining
Zl.B Production, except that it was to raise the whsle
67:011 at to how far the Archbishop of York was jue-
the in the course he had persevered in w,th respect t )
Tpnvoeation at York.
needishop of LONDON said the noble lord de-
.. e drawin
ttt papers that did not and never had existed. In
up of the first part of the noble lord's mo

ugh he did not believe such to be his intention,
',ltppeared to' a slur upon a right reverend prelate,
and who had not
ll° was pursuing his labours in a strictly correct man-
her,nous departed in the slightest from
precedents which existed on the point.

Were considered and agreed to :—Birkenhead Improve-
pt Commissionere (Gas and Water) Bill ; Oxford,

CORRUPT PRACTICES PREVENTION ACT
CONTINUANCE BILL.
The house went into committee on this bill, resuming
the consideration of clause 1 relative to the payment by !' candidate of the travelling expenses of the voter.
,A• lengthened discussion eneued, in which the argn•
moots urged yesterday were again repeated.
K. HUG ESSEN suggested the following pro-
.% :—Provided always, that such payments shall not
Ikceed one shilling per mile to every such voter for any
Distance less than ten miles, and sixpence per mile for
eery additional mile : Provided also, that if the dis-
l'Oce to be travelled by any such voter exceed ten
titles, and there be available railway accommodation,
~e payments for travelling expenses shall not exceed
;4e maximum rate of fare chargeable on such railway
tor such distance.
),Mr. NVA.LPOLE repeated what be said yesterday,
that he was ready to incorporate in
Il his. theprovyisro_
4_af the hon, member for the Tower am (Mr. A
ra). The candidates might pay for conveyances,
Alt that no money should pass between the candidates
4bd the voters.
The committee divided upon Mr. Ayrton's proviso :
For the proviso
Against it., 39
Majority lO6
b!lr. A.TRTOR'S p roviso thus became the original reso-
'°u. and had to be put again from the chair. The
rilitPlation of its adoption led to another division, when
o numbers were—
For the resolution 133
Against it
Majority --75
The resolution was thus carried.
rOa the motion of Mr. WALPOLE, the following
o viso was added :—" Provided always that a fall,,!aa, and particular account of all such payments, signed
ele
rthe caodidate osrucbhis agents, shall be delivered to the
04,ecsto ionns
toa hudwitoort,awith the names and addresses of the
payments have been made, and
the amount of such account shall be included in the
ineral account of the expenses incurred at any election,
tla
° made out and kept by such election auditor."
Mr, OSBORNE
said the ad considerable
uoebt on the nature of a vote.re One appeared
gentleman looked
11Poo it as a right, another regarded it as a privilege,
%third viewed it as a trust. For his own part, he looked
upon it as a perquisite. (Laughter.) He thought that
candidates should not be called upon to pay anything
tit of their own pockets for elections, and he should
erefore more as an addition to the clause that the
candidate should be reimbursed for his expenses out of
'44 county, city, or borough rate, as the case might be,
411 Which the voter's name appeared on the register.
Sir je GRAHAM considered thao this clause would
°onvert the bill into a taxing measure—that it would be
a money bill, and that it could not be put.
Mr. FITZROY decided that it only provided for ex-
knees out of local rates, and therefore was not a taxing
Qlhase.
Mr. OSBORNE having withdrawn his amendment,
it became the duty of the chairman to put tae question
that clause 1, as amended, stand part of the bill.
The committee divided—
For the clause
Against it

Ehrough committee.

to returning officers the expenses incurred by them in
taking
gpnolla at elections, be it enacted, That the persons
any candidate shall be jointly liable with such
candidate for the payment by him to the returning offi-
cer of an equal share uf the said expenses."
