INIPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF LORDS—YESTERDAY.
The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack
at half-past two o'clock.
The Municipal Corporation Act Amendment Bill, the
Removal of the Irish Poor Bill, Public Works (Ireland) Fill,
Windsor Suspended Canonries Bill, Appropriation of Seats
(Sudbury and St. Albans) Bill, and Conjugal Rights (Scot-
land) Bill were read a third time and passed.
TRUSTEES (SCOTLAN i)) BILL.
On the motion of the LORD CHANCELLOR, a new
clause was introduced into this bill to delay its operation
until November.

The bill was then reed a third time and passed.
The sitting was then suspended.
At five o'clock the LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on
the woolsack.

would adopt every legitimate means to prevent encroach-
ment by France on Switzerland, and that the hon. baronet
(Sir R. Peel) would exhibit in office the same interest and
zeal which he had done previously in reference to that
country. He hoped also that the Government would use
the great influence of this country to obtain fair play for
the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies From accounts, both
public and private, it appeared that that kingdom
was in a state bordering en anarchy, and that
it was deprived of ordinary protection to life
and property. He contended that the people
of Naples were kept down forcibly by the Piedmontese
troops, and that these should evacuate that country in order
to enable the people to give a true expression of their
opinions as to whether they were not now desirous of being
under their own Sovereign than remaining a mere province
of Piedmont.

Lord PALMERSTON said, with respect to the first
question that had been put to him, it apt eared that the
King of Morocco bad agreed to pay the Government of
Spain, in instalments, a certain sum of .money as an
indemnity for the expenses incurred in the war.
From the wild character of the people of Morocco, there
had been some difficulty in collecting the money for this
purpose, which led to the continued occupation of Tetuan
by Spain. He had no doubt that the Government of that
country had no desire to continue the occupation, which
was very expensive. With respect to the other questions,
he understood that the withdrawal of the Swiss troops
from Italy had been the act of the Swiss Govern-
ment. As related to the atrocities which were alleged to
have been committed in the neighbourhood of Naples. he
understood the perpetrators were parties who had been sent
from the Holy City for that purpose. The Government of
this country would not interfere to protect these brigands
in their atrocities. (Laughter.)
Mr. S. FITZGERALD contended that the intention of
Spain was to retain permanent possession of Tetuan, and
referred to a statement which appeared in a Madrid paper
in support of this statement.
Lord PALMERSTON said he hoped the Sultan of
Morocco would fulfil his agreement, and he was satffied the
Spanish Government would curry cut their contract.
THE 29TH CANON OF 1603.

Mr. H. SEYMOUR asked the Secretary of State for the
Home Department, whether it was true that the Convoca-
tion of York had postponed discussing the repeal of the 29th
Canon of 1603 until next November; if they had done so,
whether it was the intention of her Majesty's Government
to recommend that the Royal assent be given to the Canon
which had beer recently passed by the Convocation of
Canterbury, repealing the 29th Canon, and enacting another
Canon in its place; and whether the Canon Law, as con-
tained in the 29th Canon of 1603, respecting sponsors, was
not part of the Statute Law, it having been incorporated
in the English and Irish Acts of Uniformity of Charles II.;
and, if so, whether the Convention of the Irish Province, as
part of the United Church of England and Ireland, had, in
accordance with the letter and spirit of the Acts of Union,
been consulted respecting the proposed alteration in the law
respecting sponsors ?
Sir G. GREY said the Government had no specifil infer-.
mstion as to the proceedings of Convocation. As regarded
the second question, there was no application made to Go-
vernment on the subject. With respect to the third ques-
tion, it hardly arose, as the royal assent had not been asked
for.
