ORGANISATION OF THE INDIAN ARMY.

Sir E. PERRY asked the Secretary of State for India
whether the report on the organisation of the Indian army
had been presented ; and, if so, when it would be laid on
the table of the house ?

Lord STANLEY said that at present the report in
question could not be laid on the table.

THE MINT STERIAL REFORM BILL.
Mr. HUTT asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer
whether the Government contemplated introducing into
the Reform Bill, in committee, any other amendment than
that of which he had given notice to the house ?

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER—When
the Reform Bill is in committee, I am sure there is scarce
any member of this house who will not propose an amend-
ment, and I hope hon. members will not refuse the same
privilege to her Majesty's Government. (Laughter.)
Mr. A. STEUART asked the Chancellor of the Exche-
quer if he could give any idea of the numbers who would
be added to the francise if the possession of £6O in a savings
bank were to be a qualification, and similarly if the sum
fixed were MO?
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER—I have
directed estimates to be formed of the number that will be
added to the franchise, of persons possessing £6O, £4O, or
£3O in the savings banks, who will be admitted to vote, and
these estimates will be laid on the table as soon as pos-
sible.
Mr. RIDLEY asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer
when he would lay upon the table of the house the clauses
which he proposed to insert in the Representation of the
People Bill, respecting the proposed disfranchisement of
those county voters whose qualification is derived from
property situated within Parliamentary cities and boroughs.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER—It is not
intended to disfranchise the county voters possessed of the
£lO franchise, and it will be optional whether they shall
vote in the county or the borough.
VOTE OF THANKS TO THE GOVERNOR-
GENERAL OF INDIA, LORD CLYDE, &c.

Lord J. RUSSELL gave notice that on the motion for
adjournment to-morrow he would ask the noble lord the
Secretary of State for India, whether it was intended to
move a vote of thanks to the Governor-General of India,
to Lord Clyde, and the other officials in India, for their
valuable services during the late mutiny. (Hear, hear.)
THE BRITISH MUSEUM.

Mr. GREGORY moved for a select committee to inquire
into the organisation of the British Museum. He con-
tended that there was a want of proper classification and

TIIORLEY'S FOOD FOR CATTLE.—Every
person having an interest in domestic or farm animals
should obtain a supply of this celebrated and economical
food, which will prove invaluable during the approaching
season. For keeping horses in good condition it is unequal-
led. Pigs fatten with surprising rapidity upon it, and their
flesh increases in flavour and value. Cowkeepers will find
great advantage in the increased quantity and improved qua-
lity of the milk during its use. All animals are benefited by
it. A pamphlet on this interesting subject, accompanied by
Testimonials from the principal Nobility, Gentry, and Agri-
culturists, forwarded on application. In casks containing
448 feeds (measures enclosed), price 505., carriage paid to any
Railway Station in the United Kingdom. Post-office orders
payable to Joseph Thorley, 77, Newgate-street, London.
N.B.—The public are cautioned against being imposed upon
by worthless Imitations.

THE NAVY.

Lieutenant Frederick C. W. Liardet (1855) joined the
Britannia training ship at Portsmouth on Tuesday as in-
structing lieutenant (additional).
The Rodney, 90-gun sailing ship, has been towed up to
Chatham from the Nore by the Adder and African steam-
ships, and is now lying off the dockyard for the purpose of
being taken into No. 2 as soon as the Trafalgar, late
120, has been undocked. The Rodney will require consi-
derable alterations to fit her for a screw steamship.
The Hood, 90, screw steamer, is ordered to be launched
on the 4th of May.
It is reported that the Illustrious, 72, old training ship,
is again to be fitted out to take the place of the St. Vincent,
guard ship in ordinary, and that she will take the flag of
Rear-Admiral the Hon. George Grey, admiral-superin-
tendent of the dockyard. The St. Vincent, it is said, will
be commissioned and have a crew of 900 men for reserve.
The Mersey, 40, screw steam-frigate, Captain H. Cald-
well, C. 8., moved out of the steam basin at Portsmouth yes-
terday, and berthed alongside the Bellerophon hulk in the
harbour. The weather prevented her proceeding on the
engineer's trial of her machinery as had been intended, it
having blown a hard gale all day from S.W.
The Princess Charlotte? screw steam transport, from
Hong Kong, with naval and military invalids, is hourly ex-
pected at Spithead. She is now 112 days out.
The Ardent, paddlewheel steam-sloop, Commander John
H. Cave, has arrived at Sheerness, from the West Coast of
Africa (last from Woolwich.)
An additional number of artificers, riggers, &c., are put
on the Hero, at Sheerness, to expedite her equipment for
immediate service.
Mr. John Waye was yesterday appointed master to the
Vulture; and Mr. Robert J. C. Grant master to the In-
trepid.

WHITE AND SOUND TEETH are indispensable to PER-
SONAL ATTRACTION, and to health and longevity by
the proper mastication of food.
ROWLANDS' ODONTO, or PEARL
DENTIFRICE, compounded of ORIENTAL IN-
GREDIENTS, is of inestimable value in IMPROVING and
BEAUTIFYNG the TEETH, STRENGTHENING the
GUMS, and in RENDERING the BREATH SWEET and
PURE. It eradicates Tartar from the Teeth, removes spots
of incipient decay, and polishes and preserves the enamel, to
which it imparts a PEARL-LIKE WHITENESS. As the
most efficient and fragrant aromatic purifier of the Breath,
Teeth, and Gums ever ]mown, ROWLANDS' ODONTO has,
for a long series of years, occupied a distinguished place at
the Toilets of the Sovereigns and the. Nobility throughout
Europe; while the general demand for it at once announces
the favour in which it is universally held.—Price 2s. 9cl. per
box.
CAUTION.—The words "ROWLANDS' ODONTO" are
on the Label, and "A. ROWLAND and SONS, 20, Hatton-
garden," engraved on the Government Stamp affixed on each
box.

THE 2IMES' REPORT OF THE DEBATE ON
TUESDAY.

Mr. S. WORTLEY rose to draw the attention of the
house to a breach of privilege, personal to himself, which
had been committed by one of the leading journals. He
could bear testimony to the general accuracy of the journal
in question (the Times); but in the 'report which it pub-
lished of the debate on Tuesday at the morning sitting,
not only what he said was emitted, but the speech of
another member was attributed to him.

The SPEAKER considered that the hon. member was
not in order, as he was not speaking to a motion.
Mr. S. WORTLEY said that he would then move for-
mally that the house do adjourn. The hon. member was
proceeding to address the house when he was again inter-
rupted by the SPEAKER, who decided that he was still out
of order, and he resumed his seat.

THE PRINCIPALITIES.

The new Hospodar of the United Danubian
Principalities is carrying things with a high hand.
He has met the menacing preparations of Turkey,
which is forming an army against him, by calling
out the national militia, 70,000 strong, a force
numerically double that which the Sultan can bring
down to the Danube, and stronger AM in the
enthusiasm of the national cause. In the procla-
mation which Alexander John I. has issued on
ascending the throne, no mention is made of the
Suzerain power : the Prince, delivering himself in
regal declares that he governs by the grace of God
and the national will.

United Principalities,—We, Alexander John 1., by tho
grace of God and the national will Prince of Moldavia and
Wallachia,

To all present and to come, greeting—The will of the
nation, by its legal organs, the Elective Assemblies of Jassy
and Bucharest, has elected us Prince of Moldavia and Wal-
lachia. This great national act, the result of the unanimous
vote of both Assemblies, has united the thrones of Stephen
the Great and Michael the Brave.

We see in it the triumph of the principle dearest to our
hearts—that of the Rouman fraternity.
While mounting the throne we are happy and proud to
add the name of Alexander John I. to those of the Princes
who have reigned over this country. Our first duty on this
solemn occasion is to express to our countrymen of Walla-
chia the wishes which we form for the peace and properity
of this principality, and to communicate our thoughts re-
specting the present and the future.
Before assuming the reins of government we took this
oath :

" In the name of the Most Holy Trinity, in presence of
the nation, I swear to defend and maintain religiously the
rights and interests of the United Principalities; to take
care that during the whole of my reign the laws shall be re-

HERTFORD.

At a meeting of the members of the Hertford
Liberal Registration Association, held on Tuesday
evening, under the presidency of Young Crawley,
Esq„ ex-Mayor, the Government
.Reform Bill was
taken into consideration, and, after an animated
discussion, the following resolution was agreed to
—" That this meeting is of opinion that the Govern-
ment Reform Bill fails to satisfy the just expecta-
tions of the country ; that although it appears on
the surface to popularise the county constituencies,
by extending the franchise to £lO householders, it
deprives the concession of all value by stripping
the owners of property in boroughs of the right to
vote for counties—and by introducing into the
borough constituencies a novel element subversive
of the principles upon which they have hitherto
been constituted, and which would prevent the fair

that the new qualifications proposed to be given by
the bill will be found generally to apply to persons
who are already entitled to the franchise ; that the
proposed right of voting by papers, without the
personal attendance of the voter at the poll is
viewed by .your petitioners with great distrust,
from the experience of gross and, notorious frauds
committed within this borough in a similar mode
of voting in the election of guardians of the poor;.
that the freeholders of the borough of Leeds and
of other large towns in the West Riding, of Shef-

field have hitherto exercised their right to vote at
the county elections with eminent advantage to the
state, and have been proud to have originated and
secured the return to the House of Commons of many
eminent supporters of political progress and
improvement. These freeholders • have never
been guilty of or even charged with bribery,
corruption, or disorder; and yet the present
bill, if passed into law, would deprive them of
their county votes without public necessity or any
compensating grant of new privileges to the
borough constituencies.

HERTFORD.

At a meeting of the members of the Hertford
Liberal Registration Association, held on Tuesday
evening, under the presidency of Young Crawley,
Esq., ex-Mayor, the Government Reform Bill was
taken into consideration, and, after an animated
discussion, the following resolution was agreed to :
—" That this meeting is of opinion that the Govern-
ment Reform Bill fails to satisfy the just expecta-
tions of the country; that although it appears on
the surface to popularise the county constituencies,
by extending the franchise to £lO householders, it
deprives the concession of all value by stripping
the owners of property in boroughs of the right to
vote for counties—and by introducing into the
borough constituencies a novel element subversive
of the principles upon which they 'have hitherto
been constituted,
and which would prevent the fair

THE TREATMENT of STRICTURES of the
URETHRA; showing why they so often appear In-
curable, when in reality they might be removed by the most
simple means.
By F. B. COURTENAY, M.R C.S.E., _

And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan Infirmary for the
Cure of Strictures of the Urethra.
" This work is the production of a surgeon whose special
attention has been directed, through a long professional life,
to the treatment of strictures o the urethra. The cases
which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his
great discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various
kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which
their management is founded. By his systematic management
an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is
attained, and fiiture mischief prevented. The work we can
most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable
contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and
ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject
to stricture."—Medical Circular, Dec. Ist, 1858.

IN RE MASON.

This bankrupt was described as of the Regent's-canal
wholesale stationer, and to-day was appointed for his last
examination.

The accounts, by Mr. H. G. Johnson, show a surplus on
the Ist January, 1859, of £419. Debtor to creditors, un-
secured, £2,949; to ditto holding security, £1,736; profits,
£311; assets, good debts, £260; property, £440; trade
expenses, £1,189; house expenses, £800; losses, £1,153.
Mr. Buchanan appeared for the bankrupt, and consented
to an adjournment for an investigation of accounts.

IN RE GREENACRE AND ROBERTS.

These bankrupts were described as of Oxford-street,
drapers, and this was an examination meeting. The debts
and assets are inconsiderable. Greenacre passed without
opposition, and Roberts was opposed on the ground that he
had not given up a watch, but it was proved that it had
been pawned and his father held the duplicate. He was
then allowed to pass.

(Before Mr. Commissioner Fane.)
IN RE WINTER.-EXTENSIVE FAILURE OF A MILLOWNER.
This bankrupt was owner of extensive saw mills in New
North-street, and now applied for his certificate. The
balance-sheet, by Messrs. Clarke and Solly, Moorgate-
street, shows—Capital in July, 1858, £2,438 195.; profits
during 11 months, £2,438 19s. Ild. ; losses, £7,579 195.,
£6,500 of which arose on the sale of the mill plant and ma •
chinery. The debts were stated at £9, 368 ; assets, £402 ;
creditors holding security, £9,552.
Mr. Lowrance appearance appeared for the assignees, and
said that the bankrupt asked for a first-class certificate.
The assignees would not consent to that, but would not
object to a certificate of the second class, as if the plant, &c.,
had realised a fair value, there would have been 20s. in the
pound for the creditors.
His Honour granted a certificate of the second class.

ELECTION _INTELLIGXNCE.

NORTH NORTHUMBERLAND.
ALI4WICK, Thursday.—The election to fill the
vacandy in the representation of the northern divi-
sion of Northumberland, occasioned by-the appoint-
ment of Lord Lovaine to the office of Vice-Presi-
dent of the Board of Trade, took place in this town
to-dayi. His lordship offered himself for re-election,
and Was opposed—at least on the hustings—by
Mr. Washington Wilks, the representative of the
Nortl4rn Reform Union.
The nomination took place in the Town-hall,
which was densely crowded. The High Sheriff,
Mr. Silverton, acted as returning officer. Lord
Lovaine was accompanied to the hustings by Sir
Matthew White Ridley, and a number of large
landed proprietors.
Mr. C. W. ORDE, Chairman of Quarter Sessions,
nominated Lord Lovaine. In doing so he spoke
highly of his unwearied vigilance while one of the
Lords of the Admiralty.
Mr. B. BURRILL seconded the nomination.
Mr. T. BURNETT, a freeholder of Berwick, nomi-
nated Mr. Washington Wilks.
Mr. E. DAWSON, another Berwick freeholder,
seconded the nomination.
Lord LOVAINE then addressed the electors. He
said when the Derby Government acccepted office
it thought the first duty of the Admiralty was to
put the shores of the country beyond the possibility
of invasion. A state of preparation did not then
exist, but we had now such a fleet in the Channel
as would preclude the possibility of hostile attacks,
and such a state of preparation at our home ports
as would supply the necessary reserve if ever it
should be required. He defended the withdrawal
of the freeholders residing in boroughs from the
counties, and said the whole spirit of the Govern-
ment bill was, that there should be no difference
between town and country. The Government could
not go further than they had done in the bill with
safety.
_ _

Mr. WILKS next spoke. He attacked the Go-
vernment bill as an insult to the country, and com-
plained of Lord Lovaine's unfitness for the office
of Vice-President of the Board of Trade; he having
no experience whatever in matters of business.

Sir M. W. RIDLEY and Mr. M. BELL denied
that Lord Lovaine was the nominee of the Duke of
Northumberland, or that the people sympathised
with manhood suffrage, or the bill.
The show of hands was then taken.",lt was equal ;
but the High Sheriff, amid much uproar and cries
of " Wilks," declared it in favour of Lord Lovaine.
Mr. WILTS declined to go to the poll.
The proceedings were very noisy.

PIERS AND HARBOURS.

In reply to Mr. FINLAY,
Sir J. PAKINGTON said that it was intended to intro-
duce a bill to facilitate the construction of piers and har-
bours, but it must be postponed until Government received
a report on the subject.
DISEMBODIMENT OF MILITIA.

Mr. J. WESTHEAD asked the Secretary for War
what regiments of militia were to be disembodied, and at
what time, and whether, when the number of officers of any
regiment much exceeded the relative proportion of non
commissioned officers and privates, the Government would
permit a limited number of officers to return to their homes ?
General PEEL said it was contemplated to disembody
some regiments of militia, and with reference to the latter
part of the question, arrangements were being made by
Government to carry out the object alluded to.

to proctors ; and whether the yearly compensation to
proctors and other officers of the late ecclesiastical courts,
made and to be made under the late act had been ascertained,
and if so, the probable yearly amount thereof, and what yearly
amount had been received by way of contribution, in
fees or otherwise, in diminution of such compensation to

from suitors and parties proving wills and taking out ad-
ministrations ; and what may beths probable yearly amount
