THE GREAT TASMANIA.

Capt.. ARCH DALL asked the Secretary of State for India
if an inquiry had taken place into the conduct of the officers
in Calcutta that signed the inspection report of the Great
Tasmania previous to her departure for England, who were
charged with culpability by the verdict of the coroner's in-
quest mho sat upon the bodies who died on board that ship
on her voyage home from India ; and if so, if he could state
to the house what the result of the inquiry had been.

Sir C. WOOD replied that an inquiry did take place, and
the result was that the evidence given on the coroner's in-
quest here was impugned in several particulars. Previously
to that inquiry the officer responsible in some respects for
what had taken place had been removed from his position,
and had not been reappointed. Nothing had been done in
the case of the officer commanding the European troops, as
it was found that he could only have been tried by a court-
martial, and that such a proceeding would not bo desirable
under the circumstances.

the object of the Government, he gave notice that the com-
mittee would sit to consider the propriety of authorising the
Secretary of Stato fi a- India to raise money for railway pur- '
poses. On reconaiaral ion, however, he was afraid that if
he did not phrase the resolution in exactly the same terms
as the old stock it would be considered a different stock, a
circumstance which might be very prejudicial to the stock
itself. He wished to make this alteration in the notice pub-
licly, because although it was a change in the form the sub-
stance was identically the same as that of the previous no-
tice. It was most desirable the stock so raised should be of
the same nature as the old stock.
The order was then discharged, and the present motion
to take the committee on Thursday next was agreed to.

SUEZ CANAL.-GUANO.

Mr. GRIFFITH asked the Secretary of State for Foreign
Affairs whether Mr. Colquhoun, the English consul- gene-
ral in Egypt, together with the English consul at Alex-
andria and other gentlemen, had lately (on 29th June)
visited the works of the Suez Canal, and had expressed his
satisfaction with what he had seen and heard there ; and
whether such approval was to be understood to be qualified
by the condition that forced labour should not be employed
on the works of the canal, and that the obligations in that
respect of the Pacha of Egypt towards the Porte be faith-
fully fulfilled ?
Lord J. RUSSELL said he had seen the report
alluded to by the hon. member in a foreign newspaper,
but had received no information on the subject
from the consul-general. The consul had informed
him of his intention of visiting the canal, but had
not sent any information as to the result. He would take
that opportunity of answering a question which had been
put to him respecting the exportation of guano. The
question was whether the Peruvian government had opened
the guano trade ? He had received no information to that
effect, on the contrary, his information was, that the late
contract having expired it was their intention to invite ten-
ders for a new contract. "What her Majesty's Government
had asked was that the guano should be sold at a certain
price, and that the trade should be opened to all nations.

GALWAY CONTRACT.

Mr. GREGORY brought up the report of the select com-
mittee appointed to examine into the Galway contract. The
hon. member subsequently gave notice that he intended on
Friday next to ask the First Lord of the Treasury what was
the intention of her Majesty's Government with respect to
the renewal of postal communication between Galway and
America. (Cheers.)

BETTING AT MANCHESTER,—TuEspIy.

For the Goodwood Stakes the Elcho " furore" had some-
what abated ; 3 to 1 was freely offered. Starke, Schism,
and Shipwreck were each very steadily supported. Of
course we quote the prices taken, but it seemed that each of
them would be at a less figure.—For the Cup, Optimist,
Mons Etoile, The Wizard, and Thormanby had supporters
at their respective prices. It is difficult to affix a proper
position to Doefoot ; whilst Ben Webster, who up till to-day
appeared as irm as anything, receded to 20 to 1 (offered),
and, as a consequence, was quite friendless.—The As cot
Slakes had very little attention, few parties doing businefig
upon them. Closing prices :

LIVERPOOL-JuLY 23.

There was a good attendance of the town and country
trade at this morning's market; and we had a very good
business doing in wheat ; sales for best sorts at ld to 2d
per cental cheaper than late quotations; inferior, 3d to 4d.
Flour was in fair demand for good sorts, at 6d per barrel
and sack less money, but inferior sorts were unsaleable.
Beans and peas declined 6d on the week, but were in more
request. Oats and oatmeal at Friday's prices. Indian
corn remains as last quoted.

TURKEY.

A letter from Constantinople, 14th, says :—" The
great news of the day is the amnesty proclaimed
for the condemned of Couleli. The Imperial irade
has not yet been published, but it received the sig-
nature of his Majesty four days back, and already
expresses have been sent off to Saint Jean d'Acre,
Fornagouste, and Metelin, to announce to .Teber-
kesse-Hussein-Pacha, the Cheikh Ahmed, Bekir-
Effendi, and others that their day of deliverance has
arrived. The journals of the city publish an Im-
perial Hatt, making known that the Sultan has a
son named Youssouf-Yzzeddin, and that he has been
appointed a corporal in the Imperial Guard."

ROME.

Cardinal Antonelli, by order of the Pope, has
addressed the following protest to the diplomatic
body:—

" Rome, 9th July.
"The good faith with which the Government of
the Doty See endeavours to fulfil its engagements
in spite of the critical circumstances in which it
is placed owing to the sacrilegious spoliation of the
major part of its domains, does not allow it to re-
main silent in presence of the loan of 500 millions
of francs which the Piedmontese Goverment has
resolved to contract. If this resolution be looked
at with only the slightest attention, it will be
charly sacn that a sum so enormous is not in-
tended solely to provide for the wants of Piedmont
properly. so called, but by overcharging also the
provinces taken from the Sovereign Pontiff, their
legitimate Sovereign, tends to increase by a new
public debt the load of usurpations, and to leave
for a long series of years lamentable traces of its
passage, to the great detriment of the population
of the Pontifical State. In consequence, the Holy
Father, conscious of the duties incumbent on him
with regard to the sacred patrimony of the Church,
and of his own subjects, cannot do less than protest
against this loan, declaring that he will not recog-
nize the effects of it as far as concerns the interests
of the Pontifical State. The undersigned Cardinal,
Secretary of State, in notifying this protest to your
Excellency, begs you to make it known to your
Government to serve as a rule in case of need. 1
take this opportunity, &c.,

LAW INTELLIGENCE—(2hts Day).

COURT OF CHANCERY.
(Before the Lords' Justices of Appeal.)
APPEAL-RANDFIELD V. RANDFIELD.

The further hearing of this appeal from a decision of
Vice-Chancellor Sir Richard Torin Kindersley, in favour
of the landlord, was resumed this morning.
Mr. W. M. James, Q.C., was heard for the appellant,
and the question raised was, upon what terms the tenant in
the copyhold lands was entitled to surrender and enter with
the lord of the manor. The appellant claimed to enter as
tenant in remainder on the entry of the former tenants
without payment of fines. The learned counsel concluded
his argument by asking for an order for costs to try the
question at law, and costs in this court.
Their lordships reserved judgment.

FRANCE.

The Emperor is expected at Paris on Friday or
Saturday next, and will immediately proceed, it is
thought, to Fontainebleau. The Constitutionnelsays:
—" Certain foreign journals have latterly com-
mented on the recent note in the Moniteur rela-
tive to the determination of the Emperor not to
visit any of the large towns around Vichy, and,
as was to be expected, have ascribed to it a mean-
ing which it was never intended to have. The
Emperor, it is true, had entertained the idea of
visiting Nades, but his Majesty abandoned the
design when at Fontainebleau—Count de Morny
informing him that it would require four hours to
go there. Now, a journey of eight hours in the
course of a medical treatment is to be avoided.
Therefore, it is not true, as stated in the Paris- cor-
respondence of certain journals, that Count de
Morny made preparations at his seat for the recep-
tion of his Majesty, for in leaving Paris he knew
that the Emperor would not go to Nades. The sole
object of the note in the Meniteur was to respond
to the innumerable solicitations of the localities
nearer to Vichy, all of which naturally desired to
be visited by his Majesty."

LUNACY REGULATION BILL.

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL moved the second rear-
ing of this bill (from the Lords). Its objects he explained
to be-Ist, to provide for more frequent visiting of lunatics
under the care of the Court of Chancery; and 2d, to dimi-
nish the expense of procedure. There were at present 626
lunatics under the care of the Court of Chancery at an an-
nual cost of £230,000.

Mr. HENLEY asked the Government to postpone the
bill for a week, until Mr. Walpole, who was absent on ac-
count of domestic affliction, returned to the house. The
right hon. gentleman proceeded at some length to criticise
the provisions of the bill, and moved the adjournment of the
debate.
After some discussion the amendment was withdrawn, the
bill was read a second time, and the committee fixed for
this day week.

CHURCH RATES LAW AMENDMENT (No. 2) BILL.
Mr. CROSS explained his reasons why he had brought
in this bill so late in the session. He had done so on
account of the conciliatory tone which had been shown by
Sir J. Trelawny, and in the debate which followed. As he
saw no hope of passing the bill this session he should now
move that the order be discharged.
Sir M. PETO strongly objected to the bill, which would
provide a system infinitely worse than that which at pre-
sent existed. The only way to settle this question would
be by Churchmen adopting a voluntary rate.
Sir G. LEWIS said that this was merely a motion for
discharging the first order of the day, and he hoped the
debate would not be continued.

After some remarks from Mr. Henley, Sir C. Douglas.
Mr. Newdegate, and other gentlemen, the order for the
second reading of the bill was discharged.
CHURCH RATES COMMUTATION BILL.
This bill was withdrawn.

VOTES FOR DISQUALIFIED CANDIDATES BILL.

INDICTABLE OFFENCES (METROPOLIS DIS-
TRICT) BILL.

Sir G. LEWIS said that, in the absence of Mr. Walpole,
he would move that this bill be postponed for a week, but
he did not think it would be further proceeded with this

session.

The motion was agreed to.

INDEMNITY BILL.

Sir G. LEWIS moved "that the Speaker do leave the
chair," in order that the house might go into committee on
this bill.

Mr. HADFIELD moved, as an amendment, to leave out
from " That" to the end of the question, in order to in-
sert " this house having during each of 31 consecutive
years passed a bill which became law for indemnifying per-
sons liable to make and subscribe, but who had not made
and subscribed the declaration imposed by the act of the 9th
Geo. IV., chap. 17, and having during each of three conse-
cutive sessions passed a bill for abolishing such declarations,
will not be satisfied with any measure respecting such de-
claration except one for its abolition."

Sir M. PET 0 seconded the amendment.
Sir G. LEWIS said that the bill had become law for the
last 30 years, and was designed to relieve persons who had
unwittingly neglected to take any of those oaths which
were incumbent on them. He hoped the house would con-
firm the policy which had been so frequently affirmed.
The amendment having been withdrawn, the bill passed
through committee.

2HE MALTA AND ALEXANDRIA

SUBMARINE TELEG.R.4I-11.

The English screw steamer Rangoon, Captain
Atkins, arrived on Monday night from Ras el-
Millah, on the north coast of Africa, having safely
laid the cable she had on board to within 10 or 15
miles of that place. On the evening of the sth inst.,
at 6 o'clock, the shore end of the cable was disem-
barked at Alexandria from the Rangoon, in the
paddle-box boats of her Majesty's corvette Scourge
Commander Jones, escorted by other boats of that
vessel and the Medina, Capt. Spratt, C. 8., the
Mohawk, Commander E. H. Howard, having been
previously sent on the same morning to lay down
buoys for the guidance of the ships. The Rangoon,
having on board Messrs.Canning,Clifford, Dr.White-
house, De Santy, and a staff of electricians on the
part of the contractors, and Messrs. Forde and
Laws on the part of the Government, started on
the following day at 6 a.m., preceded closely by
the Medina, with the Scourge on the starboard
beam. In this order they proceeded till nightfall,
the Rangoon paying out the cable all the while,
when the signal was made by Captain Spratt to
anchor. They started again next morning at five
in the same order, with the Mohawk still ahead
laying down buoys. On the evening of the second
day, the depths varying considerably within short
distances, the Rangoon was ordered to remain at
anchor while the Mohawk and Medina proceeded
slowly ahead sounding and marking the course.
On the third day, about noon, the Rangoon weighed
anchor, and the ships proceeded in the same order
as on starting. Little progress was made during
the Bth and 10th inst., on account of the variable
depths. On the 11th the squadron passed the
Ishilah Rocks, and at five the same evening had
paid out all the cable on board, electric communi-
cation with Alexandria being perfect. Here the
end was taken into shallow water, hermetically
sealed, and buoyed. In no spot, we understand,
was the cable laid in more than 100 fathoms water,
but for the most part in about 50, and at an average
distance of four or five miles from the coast. The
weather was fine, with a light north-westerly
wind and smooth water all the way till the morn-
ing of the llth inst., when a swell set in, and the
wind freshened from the north-west. On the same
evening the Rangoon parted company for Malta,
and arrived there at half-past nine at night on
the 15th inst., having encountered rough. weather
from the north-west on the 12th and 13th, which,
had it occurred during the laying of the cable,
would have endangered the success of the operation.
The Medina was to continue sounding along the
coast preliminary to submerging the last sections
of the cable expected from England, to connect the
two ends. Mr. Forde proceeded in the Scourge
for Bengazi and Tripoli, and may be expected here
in that vessel in a week or ten days. The Rangoon
left early yesterday morning for England.--Malta

THE PAROCHIAL AN DILL BOROUGH SCHOOLS
B.

Lord BROUGHAM presented a petition from the Uni-
versity of Edinburgh, setting forth that a bill with this
title had recently been introduced into the House of Com-
mons. With the bill, as a whole, they cordially approved,
but they deprecated any clause of a sectarian tendency,
and prayed that when the bill came into their lordsbips'
hands they would alter it in this sense.
ANNOYANCE JURORS (WESTMINSTER) BILL.

Their lordships went into committee on this bill,
Lord LLANOVER proposed certain amendments,
which

Lord CHELMSFORD opposed. He defended the
constitution of the Court of Perquisites, and
strongly objected to the abolition of this court, as
proposed by Lord Llanover. The only argument

as it seemed to him, which his noble friend urged
against the court was that it was a self-elected body.
What force had that argument when the self-elected body,
as in the present case, proved itself fully able to perform
its functions.

Earl PO WIS supported Lord Llanover's amendment
The question was whether there should be a professional
or a non-professional judge.
Viscount DUNGANNON thought the police magistrates
had already enough work on their hands. There was no
reason for taking out of the hands of the burgesses a duty
that they had always performed well. He should vote
against the amendment proposed by the noble lord.
After a few remarks in reply from Lord LLANOVER, the
amendments were negatived without a division.

TURNER'S PICTURES.

Lord 11. LENNOX asked the Chief Commissioner of
Works if any plans had been prepared under his sanction
for erecting a building behind the National Gallery, in Tra-
falgar-square, for the reception of the " Turner Pictures,"
and if so, whether it was in contemplation to commence the
execution of any such plans without previously obtaining
the direct sanction of Parliament?

Mr. COWPER said that the improvements which had
been made in the National Gallery were so arranged as to
assist any large plan that might be adopted for extending
the National Gallery in the rear over the site now occupied
by the barracks and St. Martin's Workhouse. He had plans
in his possession showing how accommodation might be
provided in that direction for all the pictures, ancient and
modern, which might be entrusted to the National Gallery.
A separate wing could at any time be erected for the Turner
pictures. Government not having, however, considered
these plans, he could not say what steps might hereafter be
adopted,
Lord H. LENNOX—WiII the right hon. gentleman give
me an assurance that whatever decision Government may
come to, nothing will be done without the express sanction
of Parliament first obtained ?
Mr. COWPER—I entirely decline to enter into any
pledge on the subject. I certainly do not contemplate any-
thing like erecting a building without the direct sanction of
Parliament, but I do not conceive that the noble lord has a
right to get up in his place, and ask me to give a pledge not
to do that which I am not at all likely to do.
Lord H. LENNOX would recur to the subject on going
into supply on Friday next.

SAILORS' HOMES.

Sir H. STRAC EY asked the Secretary to the Admiralty
if it were true that the portion of the grant voted by this
house for the encouragement of sailors' homes in the neigh-
bourhood of dockyards had been withdrawn from the Cork
Sailors' Home on the ground that that home is not in the
neighbourhood of a dockyard ; and, if it were withdrawn,
upon what principle it had for previous years been given ;
and inquired if there were not other instances of a portion
of that grant being continued to any other sailors' home or
homes not in the neighbourhood of dockyards ?
Lord C. PAGE r said that the grant had been withheld
because the commander-in-chief on the Cork station had in-
formed the Admiralty that very few sailors used the home
at that port. The only place not in the neighbourhood of
dockyards which received Government aid was Falmouth,
a port where a good many of our sailors were always to be
found.

The cause is there predicated of the monetary difficulties e

ness has now become the grim torture. Purity of motive,
