LUPE RIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF LORDS-YESTERDAY.

Their lordships did not assemble this evening, owing to
it being the anniversary of her Majesty's accession to the
throne.

HOUSE OF COMMONS—YESTERDAY.
The SPEAKER took the chair at four o'clock.
PRIVATE BUSINESS.

The Lords' amendments to the Cork and Youghal Rail-
way Bill and Middleton and Tonge Improvement Bill were
considered and agreed to.

The following bills were read a third time and passed :
Colne Valley and Halstead Railway; Dunblane, Donne,
and Callander Railway; Forest of Deane Railway, Hat-
field Chase Warping and Improvement ; Lynn and Sutton
Bridge Railway, South Staffordshire Railway, Whitworth
Vale Gas, and Worcester, Bromyard, and Leominster Rail-

way.
MOLD AND DENBIGH JUNCTION RAILWAY

BILL.

Some discussion arose in reference to a motion by Mr.
WOODD for the recommittal of this bill, which was ulti-
mately agreed to.

PETITIONS.

Several petitions were presented against the extension
of the system of education proposed, in favour of the resto-
ration of the clauses in the Bankruptcy and Insolvency
Bill which were struck out by the House of Lords, from
different parts of Ireland for a restoration of the Galway
subsidy, in favour of the suppression of the liquor traffic on
Sundays.

TOWN AND COUNTRY.

The new " Population Tables" give returns for
nearly all the Parliamentary boroughs of England
and Wales, and making a fair allowance in respect
of the few instances not yet returned, they show
that the population of places represented by the
borough members increased by about 1,150,000 in
the ten years 1851-1861, from census to census,
leaving about 980,000 for increase in the places
represented by the county members. The difference
of ratio, which is considerable (because the county
members represent districts containing a larger
population than the boroughs), is, of course, caused
by the flow of population from the rural districts
into the towns. Some instances of this are very
striking. While in the ten years the metropolis
increased 253,989 by excess of registered
births over deaths, it increased also 186,809 by
excess of immigration over emigration (except
that some allowance may have to be made for any
births that may have escaped registration ; the
(registration) county of Lancashire, with a smaller
population, increased 254,189 by births, but
also 143,102 by immigration ; Glamorganshire
increased 41,939 by births, but a larger number-
-44,224—by immigration. On the other hand, we
find the effect upon the agricultural districts of their
being subjected, with almost no immigration, to a
constant drain of their population into the towns.
The three eastern counties (Essex, Suffolk, and Nor-
folk) have added 129,726 to their population by
births since the census of 1851, but the enumerators
last April found only an increase of 28,220, so that
upwards of 100,000 had gone to push their fortunes
elsewhere. In the five south-western counties the
numbers are still more remarkable; the 10 years'
increase by births exceeding deaths was 200,673,
and yet only an increase of 32,290 remained in the
district at the close of that period. Some counties
parted with more by emigration than they gained
by natural increase ; Cambridgeshire increased by
births 23,582, but by emigration it lost all that
number, arid 10,348 besides. Seine of this emigra-
tion is to foreign parts ; the bulk of it is doubtless
into towns in England and South Wales. When
more complete returns are made, we may expect to
find that the population of places represented by
the borough members of England and Wales is not
less than 8,500,000.

THE ACCIDENT AT THE CRYSTAL PALACE.—We
have heard, by direct inquiry, that the story of the work-
man who was said to be so dangerously injured by a fall
from Blondin's rope is more than half fiction. Ho was not
a carpenter, but a lad in the employ of the workman. He
did not venture on the rope 100 feet high, but merely,
"for a lark," climbed from the ground, at most 20 feet, up
one of the sloping ropcs by which the masts are kept stano-
- as those of a ship by tho rigging. He was severely
bruised, of course; but at the hospital the report is there
is no Oerious injury Mover.

SALMON AND TROUT FISHERIES BILL.

This bill was read a second time, and ordered to be re-
ferred to a select committee.
QUEENSLAND GOVERNMENT BILL.

The order for the third reading of this bill was read and
discharged, for the purpose of its being re-committed.

CHATIIAM DOCKYARD ENLARGEMENT BILL.
The house then went into committee on this bill.

Lord C. PAGET said that the town of Chatham was not
opposed to the bill, which simply took powers for the en-
largement of the dockyard. The city of London had
demanded the insertion of a saving clause, but there was a
question as to how that was to be done. He proposed there-
fore to report progress before reaching the last clause, in
order to ißtroduce the clause on a future day.
The several clauses, excepting the last, were then agreed
to, the house resumed; and the chairman reported progress,
and obtained leave to sit again.

WINDSOR SUSPENDED CANONRIES.

Sir G. LEWIS obtained 'caw, to bring in a bill for the
appropriation, in favour of the Military Knights and the
Churches of Windsor, of two of the canonries suspended in
the chapel of Windsor which was afterwards read a first
time.

The other business on the paper was disposed of and the
house adjourned at half-past one o'clock.

ESSAYS AND REVIEWS.

The Lower House resumed its sittings in the Jerusalem
Chamber; the archdeacon of Berkshire presiding as pro-
locutor.
The attendance was less full than on former occasions,
but including most of the leading members of the house.
The Earl of Harrowby, Lord Cranworth, Mr. M. Milnee,
and several M.P's. were amongst the strangers, who were
unusually numerous.
Some formal business having been transacted,

The PROLOCUTOR read the message from the Presideni
directing the house to examine and give its opinion as to
the book entitled "Essays and Reviews."
The Rev. Mr. MASSINGBERD gave notice that if the mo-
tion of Archdeacon Denison should be carried, he would
move an address to the President and the Upper House,
praying that they might proceed rather by way of declara-
tion of their own belief, than by way of synodical judgment.
Canon WORDSWORTH gave notice of the following amend-
ment to Archdeacon Denison's motion :—" That the eccle-
siastical courts of this realm are the proper tribunals for the
trial of heresy. That in the ordinary exercise of its func-
tions„ convocation is a deliberative assembly, and not a
judicial tribunal ; and that if in any particular case, such as
that now before this house, it proposes to enter upon any
deliberations with the view to perform a judicial act and to
pronounce a synodical sentence upon a book, it ought firs'
to consider whether a license from the crown may not be
requisite fr.. that purpose. That a rears.ctka

THE NEW BANITRUPTCT BILL.

The following memorial to the Prime Minister
was adopted on Wednesday by the Birmingham
Chamber of Commerce :
" To the Right Honourable Viscount Palmerston,
M.P., Premier of England, &c.,
" The Memorial of the Birmingham Chamber of
Commerce in special general meeting assembled,
" Showeth,—That your memorialists observe
with great regret the alterations which have been
made by the House of Lords in the Bill to amend
the Laws relating to Bankruptcy and Insolvency,
inasmuch as such alterations will, if adopted by the
House of Commons, deprive the bill of some of the
most important features which the commercial com-
munity, as represented by the chambers of com-
merce and trade protection societies, have consi-
dered so essential in any alteration of the existing
laws. That your memorialists have always been
opposed to the appointment of a new judge in bank-
ruptcy, believing such an officer to be altogether
unnecessary; consequently they do not object to
the omission of the clauses having reference to such
appointment; but your memorialists deem it of the
utmost importance that creditors should obtain a
more direct control over the estates of bankrupts
and insolvents, and are of opinion therefore that
unless the clauses giving this control to the credi-
tors, which have been struck out of the bill by the
House of Lords, are restored, it would be more
satisfactory to the commercial community that the
bill should not become law. That your memorialists
are also of opinion that the clauses relating to the
dividend and to the discharge of the creditors'
assignees should stand part of the bill, and that the
remuneration to the official assignee should be
partly by salary and partly by commission or fees.
Your memorialists therefore respectfully but ear-
nestly pray her Majesty's Government not to con-
sent to the passing of the bill, unless it be restored
to its original condition, with the exception of the
clauses having reference to the creation of a new
judge. _

" Signed by direction and on behalf of the chamber,
" GEORGE DIXON, Vice-President."
It is to be presented by a deputation this day
(Friday).

Mr. Thompson—l never touched the prisoner.
Latler, 202 C, said, I was called to Mr. Thompson's
house, and the prisoner was given into my custody for crcat -
ing a disturbance, and for assaulting Mr. Thompson. The
place was in great confusion. Warmington was on the floor,
and a person was striking him. I told the prisoner he was
given into custody for assaulting the landlord and creating
a disturbance, and assaulting Warmington.
Mr. Yardley—Did you see him strike the landlord ?
Latler—No, your Worship.
Mr. Yardley—Then why did yoi take him into custody.
You did not see him strike the landlord—you did not see
any mark on the landlord—then why did you take him,
The man is wrongfully in custody. He is discharged.
Mr. Thompson—ls that all the protection that lam to
have ? They are the worst class of men we have to deal
with.

Mr. Yardley—l am not going to argue the case with
you. The man is wrongfully in custody, and he is dis-
charged,

The soldier, who is a tall and very powerful-looking man,
bowed, and left the court evidently pleased at the result of
the case.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRES.

Two extensive fires occurred in the metropolis
yesterday morning—in High-street, Kensington,
and in York-street, Walworth. The most serious
of the two commenced in the principal part of
High-street, Kensington, on the premises belong-
ing to Mr. J. Permain, a hairdresser, No. 32. This
building was 90 feet long, and two storeys high,
and adjoined the premises of Mr. H. Stevens, a
boot and shoemaker, and so rapidly did the flames
progress that both houses appeared on fire at the
same moment. Six children and two females, who
were unable to get through the fire, made their
appearance at one of the windows of Mr. Stevens's
premises, and cried for assistance. Conductor SW'
mng came up with the Royal Society's escape, anti
succeeded in bringing them down in safety. The
engines were set to work, but the flames continued
to spread, seizing almost simultaneously the
premise of Mr. Jarvis, grocer, No. 31 ; Mr. W.
Dallis, dealer in china and glass ; those of Mr. T.
Fox, leatherseller, 23, Young-street ; one unoccu-
pied, belonging to Hr. T. Smith, 22, in the same
street; as well as a range of stabling in Weston's-
yard, belonging to Mr. R. 0. Lasham. The fire-
men kept to their work, but the fire still continued,
and was not entirely extinguished till an advanced
hour of the day. The loss amounts to several thou-
sand pounds sterling. Various offices are greatly
interested, viz., the Sun, Royal Exchange, Phoenix,
General and County. The origin of the fire is un-
known. The fire at the York Chemical Works,
York-street, Walworth, before it was extinguished,
was attended with serious loss of property_ A third
fire occurred this morning at the establishment of
Messrs. Heywood and Co., cloth manufacturers,
Newington-causeway. The flames spread rapidly;
and although in a few minutes water was procured.
in abundance, and about a dozen brigade engines
were in full operation, the factory and contents were
destroyed. The cause of the fire is unknown.

INDUSTRIAL SCHOOLS BILL.

The house then went into committee, resuming at clause
16, which was agreed to, as was clause 17.

On clause IS,

Mr. BARROW objected that it gave a single magistrate
the power of taking a certain class of persons from the
control of the poor-law guardians, and placing them in
positions where their maintenance would cost double, while
the guardians would have to pay for it. That was a re-
volution in our present system which deserved the atten-
tion of the committee. He complained of the unjust
operation of this clause in making a child chargeable on a
parish by the fact of its having slept in the parish but a
single night.

Mr. lIENLEY having said a few words,
Sir G. C. LEWIS said he was prepared to admit that a
difficulty might arise as to the chargeability.
After some further discussion the clause was negatived,
to be introduced on the bringing up of the report.
Clauses 20 to 34 inclusive were agreed to after some
conversation, in which Mr. Henley, Colonel Stuart, Mr.
Garnett, and Sir G. C. Lewis took part.
On clause 35,

Mr. WHALLEY (who was much interrupted) said he
had been informed that schools which now existed of a
reformatory character had been made use of for the pur-
poses of Roman Catholic monasteries, and he even under-
stood nunneries. (Hear, hear, laughter, and cries of "Go
on.") He was informed that is. a- week were given for
the support of each of the children. (Hear, hear.) Nov

The clause, and the remaining ones were then agreed to.

Mr. BUXTON, in the absence of Sir Stafford Northcote,
moved the following clause :—" On the application of the
parent, or of the managers, or of the guardians who may
be liable to make any repayment as aforesaid on account of
any child, any justices of the county in which the school is
situate, if satisfied that a suitable employment in life has
been provided for the child, or that there is otherwise suf.

THE NEW BANKRUPTCI BILL.

The following memorial to the Prime Minister
was adopted on Wednesday by the Birmingham
Chamber of Commerce :
"To the Right Honourable Viscount Palmerston,
M.P., Premier of England, &c.,
" The Memorial of the Birmingham Chamber of
Commerce in special general meeting acscaibled,
" Showeth,—That your memorialists observe
with great regret the alterations which have been
made by the House of Lords in the Bill to amend
the Laws relating to Bankruptcy and Insolvency,
inasmuch as such alterations will, if adopted by the
House of Commons, deprive the bill of some of the
most important features which the commercial com-
munity, as represented by the chambers of com-
merce and trade protection societies, have consi-
dered so essential in any alteration of the existing
laws. That your memorialists have always been
opposed to the appointment of a new judge in bank-
ruptcy, believing such an officer to be altogether
unnecessary; consequently they do not object to
the omission of the clauses having reference to such
appointment ; but your memorialists deem it of the
utmost importance that creditors should obtain a
more direct control over the estates of bankrupts
and insolvents, and are of opinion therefore that
unless the clauses giving this control to the credi-
tors, which have been struck cut of the bill by the
House of Lords, are restored, it would be more
satisfactory to the commercial community that the
bill should not become law. That your memorialists
are also of opinion that the clauses relating to the
dividend and to the discharge of the creditors'
assignees should stand part of the bill, and that the
remuneration to the official assignee should be
partly by salary and partly by commission or fees.
Your memorialists therefore respectfully but ear-
nestly pray her Majesty's Government not to con-
sent to the passing of the bill, unless it be restored
to its original condition, with the exception of the
clauses having reference to the creation of a new
judge.
" Signed by direction and on behalf of the chamber,
" GEORGE DIXON, Vice-President."
It is to be presented by a deputation this day
(Friday).

SIR I. W. RAMSDRIV AND HIS
CONSTITUENTS.

A meeting of the Armley Reform Association
was held on Monday evening in the large room of
the Union Cross Inn, for the purpose of taking into
consideration the recent votes of Sir J. Ramsden in
the House of Commons, and of presenting him with
an address, requesting him to resign. The meeting
was very enthusiastic, and comprised a good many
freeholders. The chairman (Mr. William Ellis),
after introducing the business of the meeting, re=
viewed at some length the Parliamentary career of
Sir J. Ramsden, but more particularly during the
present session—his absence during the division on
Mr. L. King's and Mr. Berkeley's motions—his re-
fusal to vote for Mr. Baines's Reform Bill because
" it would be censuring governmentand his
conduct towards Government in voting with the
Tories against the abolition of the paper duty. Mr.
Ellis also showed that the hon. baronet was gene-
rally to be found in opposition to Mr. F. Crossley
and Mr. Baines in voting for the reduction of the
estimates.

Several other gentlemen addressed the meeting,
and on the motion of Mr. Blundill, seconded by
Mr. W. Cromack, an address to Sir J. Ramsdell
was carried by acclamation, expressive of surprise
and regret at his opposing nearly every measure
which he was expected or had pledged himself to
support.

The document concluded in the following words :
" We look upon your votes on all leading subjects
as opposed to your professed principles, and altoge-
ther inimical to the interest of your constituents. We
therefore consider you no longer worthy or entitled
to the confidence of that body, and, however repug-
nant it may be to our feelings, we, the members of
the Armley Reform Association, are constrained to
request that you will at once resign the important
trust vested in your hands by the electors of the
West Riding of the county of York.—On behalf of
the Armley Reform Association, I am, &0.,
" Wm. ELLIS, Chairman."
