The Giornale di Roma of the 6th states that
the Pope arrived at Civita Castellana on the 4th,
and on the following morning went to the cathe-
dral on foot, to say mass before his depar-
ture. During the ceremony he distributed
the Eucharist to all the municipal authorities
and to many of the other inhabitants. At
M4gliano, Otricoli, and Narni, he also visited
the cathedrals and gave his benediction to the
people. At Terni he visited the large foundry
of that place, where several medals with the
effigies of 'the Saviour, the Virgin, and the
Apostles Peter and Paul were cast in his pre-
sence. When about to leave that place, some
young men of the best families offered to take
the horses off his carriage, and to draw it, but
this he would not allow. The streets through
which he passed were ,everywhere strewed with
flowers. At Spoleto, triumphal arches had been
erected, and before the cathedral stood a large
wooden column surmounted by the statue of the
Immaculate Virgin. The town was illuminated
when he arrived. On alighting he proceeded on
foot to the cathedral, and thence to the episcopal
palace, where he admitted all the authorities to the
honour of kissing his slipper. On the following
morning the Pope said mass in the cathedral, and
then set out for Fuligno, where he was received
with similar honours.

THE PRINCIPALITIES.

A letter from Bucharest in the Bourse Gazette
of Berlin, says :—" On the 29th ult. the news
was received at Jassy that M. Katargi had been
replaced in his functions of Minister of the Inte-
rior by M. Basile Ghikq. This seems to imply
that Prince Vogorides has modified his views with
i respect to the union, for M. Ghika s favourable to
that m"asure, and would not consent to any step
hostile to his party.
The commissioners for settling the question of
the Danubian principalitie3, after a month's stay
in Wallachia, proceeded at the end of list month
to Jassy in Moldavia, where they were received
with every mark of respect, and, as at the former
Ogee, addresses were presented to them, to which
they returned suitable replits. The Ottoman
commissioner was received with marked attention,

but was more reserved than the other commis-
sioners, and begged that his reply b the addr, ss
presented to him might not be published., •The
local authorities continued to display severity
against the partisans of the union of the two prin-
cipalities.

AUSTRIA.
A letter from Vienna, of the 6th, says :—" The
Archduke Maximilian, governor-general of the
Lombardo-Venetian kingdom, is expected in the
course of a few days, and on his arrival Count
d'Archinto is to go to Brussels to demand officially
from King Leopold the hand of the Princess Char-
lotte. Count d'Archinto is to be accompanied by
Count Zichy, grand marshal of the palace ; the
Duke Melzi d'Eril and Count Bewbo, chamber-
lains ; Count Bela de Hadik, adjutant of the Ad-
miralty ; Captain Count Michielli, of the navy, aide-
de camp ; M. do Scherzenlechner, councillorrsecre-
tary, and a numerous and brilliant suite. The
Count is to await at Brussels the arrival of the
Archduke. It is probable that front Brussels the
Archduke will go to England to visit Queen Vic-
toria and Prince Albert, also the ex-Queen of the
French Marie Amelie and her family, who are the
nearest relatives of the august princess."

PUBLIC ENTERTAINMENTS.

Mr. BRADY asked the Secretary of State for the
Home Department, if the Government proposed intro-
ducing any measure this session, for the better regula-
tion of places of public entertainment which were open
for the most part after 12 o'clock at night ?

Sir G. Grin- said the Goverstuent had no inten-
tion to introduce such a measure this session.
THE FINANCIAL ACCOUNTS.

Sir H. WILLOUGHBY asked the Secretary to the
Treasury when the finance) accounts for the year ending
the 31st day of March, 1357, would be presented ?
Mr. WILSON said, that accord►ng to act of Parlia-
ment., the financial statement must be presented on or
hefote the 30th of June. He believed that on or before
that day the return would be made. A the account
included a variety of statements, he would have much
pleasure in producing any particular accounts, if asked
for before that day.

NEWFOUNDLAND.
Sir J. PAKINGTON presented a petition from New-
foud
relatingthe!andon to h
subject
t of the proposed convention with
franca
Newfoundland fisheries ; and
asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies as to the
intentions of her Majesty's Government with respect to
hat Convention 1
Mr. LABOUCHERE, aftere settlement
stating the difficulties
th
that cx;sted in reference to ttlemei.t of the. right of
fishing on the banks of Newfoundland and this country,
said that, finding there was no chance of their coming to a
satisfactory settlement of the question, two
was thought de-
sirable by her Majesty's Governmentn i
t der
teantder into a
orituug bealyt
hatt
convention with France, on the u
it should be approved of by the colony, tihnt
the colonists at first con;idered their rights bad been
in-
infringed on, and they refused to accept the terms of
h
convention. Since then matters had been explaintede
and they now felt sati,fied at what had been done by
this Government. He assured the house that every endea-
vour would be taken by this Government to bring this
matter to a satisfactory conclusion. He would be no
party to compromise or surrender the rights of the
colony without the express consent of tho Legislative
Council of that colony. Ho would shortly lay before
Parliament papers in reference to tho question.

CHURCH RATES.
Sir J. TRELAWNEY a,ked if the G,ivernintnt in-
tended to introduce this session a b,ll for the abolition of
church rates ?

Lord PALMERSTON said that the Government bad
the utiestion under consideration with the view to the
introduction of such a measure next session.
Sir J. TRELAWNEY expressed himself diesatiefied

with the answer, and said that unless he had a more
satisfactory answer he should bring the question before
the house next Monday.

-SUPPLY.

Mr. WILSON moved that the ordinary supply be
granted to her Majesty, and said that he should move
to-morrow that the house go into committee to consider
the subject.
London, England, 1857-05-12

OF DIVORCE

The LORD CHANCELLOR laid upon the table two
bills, one relatirg to testamentary jurisdiction, the other
relating to the law of divorce and marriage.
Lord CAMPBELL said, if the Probate and Letters
of Administration Bill of his noble and learned friend
was as objectionable in some of its parts as the bill of
last session he should feel it his duty to oppose it. So
likewise would he oppose the clause in the Divorce Bill
which in the bill of het session empowered a husband
and wife to separate at any time on a mutual agreement
to that effect, in the event of such a clause being re-
produced is the present bill.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said, the bills were
substantially the same as those of last session, bet with
several amendments ; and among others, in regard to
the Testamentary Bill, he had—more, he must confess,
in deference to the wishes of others than of his own—
entirely separated the Court of Probate in every way,
not only from the Court of Chancery, but from every
judge of the Court of Chancery. (" Hear, hear," from
Lord Campbell.) The details of the mode in which he
bad done that he should afterwards have an opportunity
of stating. With regard to the Divorce Bill, he had
struck out the clause to which his noble and learned
friend (Lord Campbell) had objected. (Hear, hear.)
The bills were then read a first time.
Their lordships then adjourned.

CONSUMPTION OF SMOKE.

Mr. BOWYER asked if the Government intended to
enforce the law compelling the consumption of smoke in
London ?

Sir G. GREY said that the act was being carried out
in London, and that during the last month 54 convic-
tions had taken place. (Hear, hear.)
THE POOR LAWS.
Mr. WISE asked the President of the Poor Law
Board, whether it was the intention of her Majesty's
Government t 3 introduce any measures to revise the
laws relating to the settlement and removal of the poor,
or to alter the present mode of raring the rates for
the relief of the poor by distributing the charge
over a wider and less variable basis ; and 2dly, if her
Majesty's Government was not prepared to propose
early legislation on these subjects, whether the President
of the Poor-law Board would assent to the appointment
of a committee to inquire into the practical operation of
the laws, for the relief of the poor in Er.g,land and Wales,
and to consider the policy and general effect of all the
laws relating to settlement, removal, and parochial
assessment !

Mr. BOUVERIE, with reference to the third ques-
tion, said that it was not the intention of the Govern-
ment to introduce such a measure this session ; and that
with regard to the second question, it was more
one for the house to determine than him. He
reminded the hon. gentleman that extensive and fre-
quent•enquiries had already taken place on the subject.
LWNATIC ASYLUMS (SCOTLAND).
Mr. E. ELLICE asked the Secretary of State for
the Home Department the cause of the delay in print-
ing the report of the commissioners appointed to inquire
into the slate of Luna is Asylums in Scal4nd, pre-
sented, by command, the :2511 dsy of July, 1856 ?
Sir G. GREY said that the cause of the delay in
distributing this report arose from a desire on the part
of the CominisAoners to carefully revise the report be-
fore it was finally printed and circulated. He was in•
formed by one of the Commissioners, on Saturday, that
it was printed with the appendix, and would be circu-
lated in a few days.
REFORMATORY SCHOOLS.

Mr. MILES asked the Secreta.ry of State for the Home
Department whether he intended to introduce during
the present session the bill which was brought forward
by Government last session, to fAcilitato the establish-
ment of reformatory schools in England ?
Sir G. GREY said that he had given notice to ask
for leave to re introduce his bill of last session on this
subject on Friday next.

TRADESMEN'S FOUR-OARED RACE.

The members of the Arundel Unity Aquatic Club
opened their season yesterday with one of the most
spirited four-oared races that has taken place among
tradesmen for some time. The course was from the Put-
ney New Bridge to Chiswick-pier, and with the f&llow-
ing result :
Messrs. W. Pullen, C. G. Rogers, G. Butler, G.
Tumble, and C. Gardner, coxswain (Yellow) 1
Messrs. W. Scott, J. Smith, R. Hart, F. Dyer, and
F. Mahon, coxswain (White) 2
Messrs. F. Patterson, J. Lyall, J. Tr mipe, W. Law-
rence, rnd W. Morris, coxswain (Green) 3
Messrs. T. Mason, J. W. Smith, W. Weal, J. C.
Waller, and J. Chapman, coxswain (Blue) 4
Messrs. R. McCall, A. Edge, W. Jones, J. Male, and
J. Isaacs, coxswain . , (Red) 5
The start was a capital one, and they were all away
together. At the Star and Garter, Yellow, White, and
Green pulled out from the others, Blue closely following
them, Red soon falling astern. The three leading boats
were so close that no difference could be seen between
them for some time, then Yellow bad a lead of about a
quarter of a length, and in this position they remained
to within 200 yards of Hammersmith-bridge, at which
point the winners drew themselves clear. The struggle
between Green and White was very severe to the finish,
where Yellow won by a lengtn„White being half a length
ahead of Green.

THE PRINCIPALITIES.

A letter from Bucharest in the Bourse Ga.ette
of Berlin, says :—" On the 29th ult. the news
was received at Jassy that M. Katargi had been
replaced in his functions of Minister of the Inte-
rior by M. Basile Ghika. This seems to imply
that Prince Yogorides has modified his views with
respect to the union, for M. Ghika is favourable to
that measure, and would not conseut to any step
hostile to his party.
The commissioners for settling the question of
the Danubian principalities, after a month's stay
in Wallachia, proceeded at the end of last month
to Jassy in Moldavia, where they were received
with every mark of respect, and, as at the former
place, addresses were presented to them, to which
they returned suitable replies. The Ottoman
coniraisaioner was received with marked attention,

but was more reserved than the other commis-
sioners, and begged that his reply to the adds ss
presented to him might not be published. The
local authorities continued to display severity
against the partisans of the union of the two prin-
cipalities.

AUSTRIA.
A letter from Vienna, of the 6th, says :—" The
Archduke Maximilian, governor-general of the
Lombardo-Venetian kingdom, is expected in the
course of a few days, and on his arrival Count
d'Archinto is to go to Brussels to demand officially
from King Leopold the hand of the Princess Char-
lotte. Count d'Archinto is to be accompanied by
Count Ziehy, grand marshal of the palace ; the
Duke Melzi d'Eril and Count Bembo, chamber-
lains ; Count Bela de Hadik, adjutant of the Ad-
miralty; Captain Count Michielli, of the navy, aide-
de.canap ; M. de Scherzenlechner, councillor-secre-
tary, and a numerous and brilliant' suite. The
Count is to await at Brussels the arrival of the
Archduke. It is probable that from Bruise's the
Archduke will go to England to visit Queen 'Vic-
toria and Prince Albert, also the ex-Queen of the
French Marie Amelie and her family, who are the
nearest relatives of the august princess."

TTIE MUTINEERS AT UMB ALLAH.

The following is an extract from a letter, dated
Umballati, May 14, written by Mr. Evans, the
gentleman who, having been made the scapegoat of
the practical jokers at Canterbury, has most credit-
ably redeemed his position in the army, and was
appointed to the 9th Lancers on the recommenda-
tion of Sir W. Williams for his good services
at Erzeroum :—" Perhaps this may give you the
first intelligence of the disturbance in this part of
India, which is now in a very unsettled state. Since
Thursday, April 16, we have bad incendiary fires of
frequent occurrence, without being able to find out
the perpetrators. On the 16th a barrack and a hos-
pital were burnt clown, and since that almost every
night up to last Sunday some building has been set
on fire. The bungalows, being low thatched build-
ings, are easily set on fire, which it is impossible to
extinguish in a place so sadly supplied with water
as this station. The native troops for some time
have been showing a discontented spirit, without
breaking out into open mutiny. There are
here two native infantry regiments, the sth and
60th, and one regiment of native cavalry—viz., the
4th Light, besides some Irregulars ; and we have
only one regiment of Europeans—viz., the 9th
Royal Lancers and two troops of horse artillery.
Last Sunday, after we had returned from church
and had just fini.hed our breakfast, at about 10
a m., the alarm sounded for the regiment to turn
out. The men were lying in the barracks un-
dressed, and many of them asleep, but in an
almost incredibly short time they were all on parade
and mounted and fully equipped ; the artillery
were ready nearly as soon. When on the parade
ground we found that the 60th Native Infantry had
mutinied and turned out with their arms, but we
could not go down because they had their officers
prisoners and threatened to shoot them if we
came down ; bet that if we did not they would re-
turn quietly. If our men had had the chance to go
in at them, they would have made short work of
them, they are so enraged at having had so much
niglitwork lately in consequence of the fires, which
are all attributed to the sepoys. They (i.e., our
men) only get about two nights a-week in bed. At
twelve o'clock, noon, we were turned out again
in consequence of th© sth Native Infantry having
turned out ; but we were again disappointed. They
appeared to think us too attentive, and returned
to their barracks. Forth° last two nights tho wives
of married officers are sent down to the canteen for
better security. An officer remains at the main
guard all night, and an Artillery officer with the guns
which are loaded, and ammunition is served out to
the men. Two patrols go out every hour,
and all is alert. Yesterday three compa4ies of the
75th (Her Majesty's) marched in from Kusssowlee.
They started at noon on Tuesday, and arrived at
about 2 p.m. yesterday (Wednesday). The dis-
tance is 48 miles, a wonderful march under an
Indian sun, when the thermometer was 92 to 94
degrees in the shade. They had not a single
straggler."
