SUPPLY—THE NATIONAL GALLERY.
On the bringing up of the report of supply agreed to at
the evening sitting yesterday,
Lord H. LENNOX and Mr. B. COCHRANE asked some
questions as to the intentions of the Government relative t 0
the National gallery? •

Mr. COWPER said that the latter gentleman had ne"
cused the Government of acceding to incongruities in re"
spect to the public buildings, a charge which he denied'
Mr. Pennethorne had proposed a plan, which was Wider
the consideration of Government. The subject of the
National Gallery had occupied the attention °f
successive Governments for twelve or fourteen
years, and the great difficulty that presented itself was the
better adaptation of two sites for the reception of the national
pictures. If there was only one site to be decided on, that
difficulty would not exist. It had been suggested that
portion of the yard of St. George's Barracks could be con-
verted into a gallery for some of the pictures which would re-
quire no architectural decoration,and would cost only £25,000.
The Government were not prepared to adopt any plans, and
those under consideration were merely preliminary. He
had no doubt this subject would be matured before the next
estimates were presented to Parliament. The hon. member
then proceeded to vindicate Mr. Turner, who had left so
valuable a collection of pictures, from any imputations
as to
pre .eminence of style, which he thought had been implied
by the noble lord (Lord H. Lennox).
Some further conversation ensued, in the course of which

Lord H. LENNOX said there was a sketch book of some
of the pictures of Mr. Turner that were open to the impute'
tion alluded to, but it did not apply to the collection be-
queathed to the country.
The subject then dropped.
On the vote of £30,000 for the volunteer fcrce there was
some discussion, but it was ultimately agreed to.
The report was then received, and leave granted to bring
in a bill founded on it.

WAYS AND MEANS.-THE NEW MINISTERIAL

APPOINTMENTS.

On the bringing up of the report of ways and means,
Mr. WHITE took that opportunity of condemning the
conduct of the Government in the appointments of Sir
R. Peel to the Chief Secretaryship for Ireland?
and Mr. Layard the Foreign Secretaryship. He considared
the former as a proof of reactionary policy, and if these
recent appointments had taken place a month before the
Government would have occupied the Opposition bent hee•
He advised them to put their house in order, as their con"
duct would have the effect of ruining them.
Sir J. SHELLEY defended both appointments, and the
subject dropped.
The Windsor Suspended Canonries Bill was read a third
time and passed.

The Public Offices Site Bill went through committee.
The Pensions British Force India Bill, as amended,
was considered and ordered for third reading.
The Edinburgh University Bill was read a third time and

Government Act (1858) relating to the districts of Ply-
mouth, Weston-super-Mare, and Llandidlo.
PAROCHIAL OFFICERS BILL.

Mr. VILLIERS obtained leave to bring in a bill to
enable over seers in populous parishes to provide offices for
the proper discharge of parochial business.
Sir G. LEWIS obtained leave to bring in a bill to suspend
the making of lists and ballots for the Militia of the United
Kingdom.

THE FRESCOES IN THE HOUSES OF PARLIA-
MENT.

Mr. B. OSBORNE explained with reference td some
statements he had previously made in reference to the free-
cod in the Houses of Parliament. He said the fresco of Cor-
delia was very much required and that King Lear was in a
very shaky state. Those remarks had reference to :the
next fresco, that of the Red Cross Knight. The face of
Cordelia was in a perfect state, but the nose of Regan had
fallen off.

After some remarks from Mr. COWPER, the subject
dropped.

The house then adjourned at two o'clock.

A NOVEL HOSPITAL.—An institution of a novel
charade': has just been completed on the sea-shore at Berck,
Pas-de-Calais. Its object is to test the the value of sea"
Lathing under tho most favourable circumstances
1n the treatment of scrofulous and similar diseases.
The partial successes attending the use of salt-
water baths in the cure of this class of diseases
has encouraged L' dininistration de l' Assistance Publique
de Paris to undertake the experiment. The new hospital
is a one-story building, containing one hundred beds, and •
is designed chiefly for the reception of children from oth
hospitals in France, especially Paris. It is, we believe, t he
only institution of the kind in the world,—.lifecho
