Sergeant Henry Clay, of the 2d Warwick Militia, corn-

in the 17th Regiment, has been admitted to bail. Since the
sergeant's committal en application has been made, on his
behalf, by Mr. W. Eastlake, to the judge in Chambers; and
on Saturday last Clay was set at liberty, by an order from
31r. Justice Erlo. The bail accepted is the sergeant in his
own recognisances for £lOO, and two sureties, Col. Gran-
Tine and Captain Stratton, of the 2d Warwick, for £5O each.
ADULTERATING THE ATMOSPHERE.-A lady says
she is delighted to hear that at Milan there is an association
against the smoking of cigars in the streets. She only re-
grets that there is not a similar association in London, for
really it is dreadful to walk out and seo the little bits of
boys puffing away at cigars nearly as big as themselves, and
blowing their filthy smoke under ladies' bonnets and in all
directions, precisely as tho Ugh they were men. The atmo-
sphere of London is already impure enough, Heaven knows,
without being further adulterated by the exhalations of
hobbedehoys !—Punch.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF LORDS-(YESTERDAY).
The LORD Cn.4,:vcELLon took his seat on the woolsack
at five o'clock.

NEW. PEERS.

Lord Churston (late Sir J. Y. Buller), and Lord Kings.
down (late Mr. Pemberton Leigh), took the oaths and their
seats as peers of the United Kingdom.
SELECT VESTRIES.

The Earl of DERBY laid on the table a bill for the bet-
ter regulation of select vestries.
The bill was read a first time.
THE ADDRESS.

The LORD CHANCELLOR read her Majesty's most gra-
cious speech from the Throne on opening the session of
Parliament, which was as follows
MY LORDS AND GENTLEMEN,
1, In recurring, at the usual season, to the advice
of my Parliament, I am happy to think that, in the
internal state of the country, there is nothing to
excite disquietude, and much to call for satisfaction
and thankfulness. Pauperism and crime have con-
siderably diminished during the past year; and a
spirit of general contentment prevails.
" The blessing of the Almighty on the valour
of my troops in India, and on the skill of their
Commanders, has enabled me to inflict signal
chastisement upon those who are still- in
arms against my authority, whenever they have
ventured to encounter my forces ; and I trust that,
at no distant period, I may be able to announce to
you the complete pacification of that great
Empire, and to devote my attention to the im-
provement of its condition, and to the obliteration
of all traces of the present unhappy conflict.
" On assuming, by your advice, the direct govern-
ment of that portion of my dominions, I deemed it
proper to'make known by Proclamation the prin-
ciples by which it was my intention to be guided,
and the clemency which I was disposed to show
towards those who might have been seduced into
revolt, but who might be willing to return to their
aliegianpe. I have directed that a copy of that
Proclamation should be laid before you.
I.receive from all Foreign Powers assurances
of their friendly feelings. To cultivate and con-
firm those feelings, to maintain inviolate the faith
of Public Treaties, and to contribute, as far as my
influence... can extend, to the preservation of the
general peace, are the objects of my unceasing
solicitude.
" I have concluded, with the Sovereigns who
were parties to the Treaty of Paris of 1856, a Con-
vention relative to the organisation of the Princi-
palities of. Moldavia and Wallachia. Those Rou-
man Provinces are now proceeding to establish,
under its provisions, their Row form of Government.
,4 A Treaty of Commerce which I have concluded
with the Emperor of Russia, and which will be
laid before you, is a satisfactory indication of the
complete reestablishment of those amicable rela-
tion swhich,until their late unfortunate interruption,
had long subsisted between us, to the mutual
advantage of our respective dominions.
" The measures which, in concert with my ally
the Emperor of the French, I thought it necessary
to take upon the coast of China, have resulted in a
Treaty, by which further effusion of blood has been
prevented, and which holds out the prospect of
greatly-increased intercourse with that extensive
and densely-peopled Empire.
" Another Treaty, into which I have entered with
the Emperor of Japan, opens a fresh field for com-
mercial enterprise in a populous and highly
civilized country, which has hitherto been jealously
guarded against the intrusion of foreigners. As
soon as the ratifications of these Treaties shall
have been exchanged, they will be laid before you.
" I have great satisfaction in announcing to
you that the Emperor of the French has
abolished a system of negro emigration from
the East Coast of Africa, against which, as
unavoidably tending, however guarded, to the
encouragement of the slave trade, my Government
has never ceased to address to his Imperial Majesty
its most earliest, but friendly representations.
"This wise act on the part of his Imperial Majesty
induces me to hope that negotiations, now in
progress at Paris, may tend to the total abandon-
ment of the system, and to the substitution of a
duly regulated supply of substantially free labour.
"The state of the Republic of Mexico, distracted by
civil war, has induced me to carry forbearance to its
utmost limits, in regard to wrongs and indignities
to which British residents have been subjected, at
the hands of the two contending parties. They
have at length been carried to such an extent that
I have been compelled to give instructions to the
commander of my naval forces in those seas to
demand, and if necessary to enforce, due repara-
tion.
