SIR J. M‘NEIL AND COL. TULLOCII.

Mr. PALK gave notice that on going into committee
of supply on the army estimates he should call attention
to the report of Sir J. M'Neil and Col. Tulloch, and
move a resclution thereon.
EDUCATION.

Mr. HADFIELD asked the right hon. Sir J. Pak-
ington whether be would tiring on the second reading
of the Education Bill on Wednesday next, being second
in the paper of that day, or would allow time for cities
and boroughs, or the ratepayers thereof proposed to be
affected by it, to consider its intended enactments?
Sir J. PAKINGTON said it was his full intention to

move the second reading of the Education Bill, unless
the previous order of the day occupied the whole or
greater portion of the day, which he thought unlikely.
The bid being permissive in its operation, the cities and
boroughs would suffer no injustice from its being read a
second time that day.
BANKRUPTCY, &c., LAWS.

Mr. CROSSLEY asked the Attorney-General if it
was the intention of the Government to introduce any
measure during the present session to amend the. Law of
Bankruptcy, by which the present costs may be greatly
lessened ? And, if it was the intention of the Govern-
ment to introduce any measure by which creditors, by
means of deeds of assignment, which should not as at pre-
sent be deemed acts of bankruptcy, might be enabled by
themselves to wind up insolvent estates
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said that the Govern-
ment had no intention or bringing in a bill this session to
lessen the costs of proceedings in bankruptcy. The Go-
vernment had under consideration a bill with reference
to winding up such estates as that referred to by the hon.
member.

(bona ide) which had expired, and a ship which bad
originally obtained the papers by fraud. On that
point he referred to the authority of Lord Stowell in a
case in " Robinson's Admiralty Reports." So it had been
decided that a ship sailing under the colours of a nation
is clothed with its character. Such was the case of the
Arrow. It carried the British colours, and the Chinese
should have treated her as a British vessel, and carried any
complaint to the consul. The 14th article of the supple-
mental treaty showed how this was understood. It was a
wise stipulation that any interferencewith the flag of either
country should he by means of the authorities of such
country. Those, then, who had denied the national pro-
tection due to the Arrow were mistaken ; and he asked
if any member could conscientiously declare that Sir J.
Bowring had been guilty of acting on a conscious error.
(Ministerial cheers.) No man could honestly say that,
and no man who could not say so could vote for this mo-
tion. (Ministerial cheers.)
Dr. PHILLINIORE rose to move the adjournment
of the debate.

Mr. DISRAELI—Sir, considering that the subject
has undergone so much discussion I could be willing to
come to a decision to-night. (Hear, hear.) Unless the
Government very much desire to continue the debate,
therefore, I should desire to divide. (Loud cries of
hear, hear, and cries for a division )
Mr. R. PHILLIMO RE said, that if it was the wish
of the house, he would withdraw his motion.
Lord PALMERSTON said—As far as we are con-
cerned we are quite ready to do whatever the house may
think fit ; but as there are many other non, members—
(bear, hear)-who are anxious to express their sentiments
upon a subject of such considerable importance, it is not,
I think, unreasonable that we should agree to the mo•
tion for an adjournment of the discussion. Cries of
" adjourn " from the Ministerial side of the house, and
" divide " from the Opposition.)
The question was then put, and the debate was ad-
journed until Monday.
The remaining orders of the day were postponed, and
the house adjourned at 25 minutes past 12 o'clock. .

By George Laval Chesterton, Twenty-five years

A third and revised edition of an exceedingly
interesting work, reviewed a few months back
in the columns of The Sun, a work which fur..
nishes entertainment to the mere lover of excite-
itlicadtihtsotehirne,ca )
ment, materials to the novelist and the romancist,
and useful information, together with practi-
cal suggestions, to the prison reformer, and
philanthropist. A work to be read by all, and
from which many pr.-gnant morals may readily be
eliminated. The author pronounces strongly in

The -
case of " nine-tenths" of this class he pro-
nounces " u'terly hopeless." This is remark-
able, considering the quarter from which it
emanates ; Mr. Chesterton, though a strict disci-
plinarian, having shown himself throughout his
prolonged career, by no means one of those who
have lost all hope of the reformation of depraved
humanity, but rather a believer in the doctrine that
the worst has some good in him.

THE MURRAIN IN FOREIGN CATTLE.

Lord POLWARTH asked the Government whether
they had received any information on the subject of the
alleged existence of the murrain amongst the cattle in
certain parts of Germany ; and if so, whether any measure
had been taken to prevent its being communicated to
the cattle of this country.
Lord STANLEY of .A LDERLEY said the Go-
vernment had not received any official infor-
mation on the subject, but having heard of
the report the Foreign-office had forwarded
instructions to the consuls at the different ports of the
continent to communicate immediately all the informa-
tion they possessed on the subject. (Hear.) The
Board of Customs were empowered to inspect
all cattle imported into this country, and to destroy all
such as might be found to be diseased.
Their lordships then adjourned.

has undergone so much discussion I could be willing to
come to a decision tc-night. (Hear, hear.) Unless the
Government very much desire to continue the debate,
therefore, I should desire to divide. (Loud cries of
hear, hear, and cries for a division.)
Mr. R. PHILLIMORE said, that if it was the wish
of the house, he would withdraw his motion.

Lord PALMERSTON said—As far as we are con-
cerned we are quite ready to do whatever the house may
think fit ; but as there are many other bon, members—
(hear, hear)— who are anxious to express their sentiments
upon a subject of such considerable importance, it is not,
I think, unreasonable that we should agree to the mo-
tion for an adjournment of the discussion, Cries of
" adjourn " from the Ministerial side of the house, and
" divide " from the Opposition.)
The question was then put, and the debate was ad•
journed until Monday.
The remaining orders of the day were postponed, and
the house adjourned at 25 minutes past 12 o'clock.

THE MURRAIN IN FOREIGN CATTLE.

Lord POLWARTH asked the Government whether
they bad received any information on the subject of the
alleged existence of the murrain amongst the cattle in
certain parts of Germany ; and if so, whether any measure
bad been taken to prevent its being communicated to
the cattle of this country.
Lord STANLEY of A LDERLEY said the Go-
vernment had not received any official infor-
mation on the subject, but having heard of
the report the Foreign-office had forwarded
instructions to the consuls at the different ports of the
continent to communicate immediatLly all the informa-
tion they possessed on the subject. (Hear.) The
Board of Customs were empowered to inspect
all cattle imported into this country, and to destroy all
such as might be found to be diseased.

NEW SOUTH WALES.

(BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)
PLYMOUTH, SATURDAY MORNING.
The Maid of Judah, Captain Merchant, which
left Sydney for London November 27, was off this
port last night, and has landed several passengers
and a mail, consisting of 30 bags, from Sydney and ,
New Zealand.
She has 6,000 ounces of gold and a large quantity
of colonial produce.
Gold averages 31. 16s. 6d. per oz. The season
was bad, but the produce is increasing. The total
amount brought by the western, southern, and
northern escorts from January Ito November 22
was 109,511 oz.
Wool was coming down slowly, in consequence
of the bad condition of the roads.
A great rise has taken place in shares of the
Bank of New South Wales and the New South
Wales Marine Assurance shares. The former have
advanced Si. or 25 per cent., and the latter 1/. per
share or 50 per cent. on the paid-up capital.
The Vocalist was to leave for London, Nov.
13th ; the Wooloomooloo, Dec. 10th ; the Ellen-
borough and the Dunbar, Dec. 20th ; and the Nim-
roud, tarly in January.
Her Majesty's ships Juno and Herald were at
Sydney.
The Maid of Judah left Sydney November 27th,
rounded the Horn December 27th, and crossed the
Equator Jan. 25th. She experienced strong 'and
constant north-east winds from 30 deg. N. to the
Channel, • -
The following vessels were signalled :—Dec. 5,
lat. 44.5 S., 10D. 1.59 E., H.M.S. Electra, from
Melbourne, for England ; Jan. 22, lat. 40 S., len.
26 W., the Migrator, from London, for Ceylon, and
the Bougers, merchantman; Feb. 7, lat. 33 N., lon.
46 W., the Serina, and the French bark Lucie ;
Feb. 12, lat. 37.10 N., lon. 41.5 W., rounded
ship Rover's Bride, of St. John's, New Brunswick,
timber-laden, water-logged, and abandoned ; hull
apparently in good order, bulwarks carried away,
deck-house washed down, main hatches open, boats
gone, and one anchor on forecastle ; topmast gone
and foreyards in the slings, main and mizen yards
aloft, mainmast head broken off by the rigging.
This fine-looking ship had been but recently aban-
doned. There were no barnacles or sea grass of
any kind on the vessel ; she is about 900 tons, and
right in the track of homeward-bound vessels.
London, England, 1857-02-28

COL. TULLOCII AND PERSIA.

Mr. LA.YARD asked the First Lord of the Treasury
if it was true that at the end of last week the Govern-
ment made an offer of 1,000/. each to Sir J. M'Neil
and Col. Tulloch as an acknowledgment of their services,
and if these gentlemen did not indignantly refuse the
offer. (Hear.) He wished to ask also if the noble lord
had received any information relative to the treaty be-
tween Russia and Persia, to which he (Mr. Layard)
called the attention of the Government last week ; and
also whether it was true that the negotiations with Per-
sia were'cotnpleted, and when the papers would be pro-
duced. (Hear, hear.)
Lord PALMERSTON said it was true that the
Government made an offer of 1,0001. each to Sir J.
M‘Neil and Colonel Tulloch, and that they bad refused
it, but not indignantly, as had been stated by the
bon. member. With regard to the treaty be bad
made enquiries of the Russian Minister at this Court
and also of the Minister for Foreign Affairs, and in the
words of the Russian Ambassador, "the whole was a
fable." The Persian negotiations were still going on,
and under the circumstances he hoped the hon. member
Would not press for the production of the papers.
THE LAND TRANSPORT CORPS.

-
Sir J. FERGUSSON asked the Under• Secretary for
War whether it was intended to give the officers of the
Land Transport Corps, whose services were no longer
required, any half-pay or pension ; and whether that
hall-pay would be on the same scale as that given to of -
vers of corresponding rank in other branches of the ser-
vice ?

General CODRINGTON bore testimony to the ex-
cellent conduct of these officers, and the advantages of
the Land Trasport Corps in the Crimea.
After some remarks from Sir DE LACY EVANS,
Mr. F. PEEL entered into the formation of this
colps, and stated that when they came home they re-
mained upon full pay for some time. Since the corps
had been broken up all the officers but 20 or 25 had been
appointed to a new military train that had been orga-
nised ; that with regard to those who could not be em
ployed application had been made to the Treasury
for a scale of allowance for them higher than that to
which tbey were entitled, which had been granted. It
was a difficult thing how to deal with these officers, be-
cause they had been taken from the ranks, and from the
period of service there Wa3 difficulty in promoting them,
as they now ranked as officers.
London, England, 1857-02-28

PRUSSIA.

A letter from Frankfort, of the 24th, states that
the marriage of Mlle. de Prints-Truenfeld, niece of
the Count de Buol, to the Baron de Majthenyi, a
Hungarian nobleman, was celebrated on the pre-
vious day at the chapel of the Austrian legation.
Count de Rechberg, the Austrian envoy, president
of the Germanic Diet, and General de Schmerling,
president of the Federal Military Committee, acted
as witnesses to the bride. There wore also present
all the staff of the Austrian legation in full uniform,
several members of the Diet and the diplomatic
corps, and other persons of distinction.
The Prussian Correspondence of Berlin says :
"It is untrue that M. de Wildenbusch, Prussian
Ambassador to Constantinople, has been recalled,
as stated by some journals. That diplomatist h9.s
merely obtained temporary leave of absence to visit
this capital."

The -Berlin Chamber of Deputies terminated the
general debate on the divorce bill on the 25th.
Att. 1 was then adopted in these terms :
" Amongst the causes of divorce hitherto admitted,
the following shall cease to exist-1, reciprocal
consent ; 2, incompatibility of temper ; 3, improper
intercourse, when on:y suspected ; 4, insufficient
proof of exemplary conduct of a wife separated
from her husband." This decision abrogates Art.
687 of the general law of the country.
A letter from Berlin of the 23d, in the Cologne
Gazette, says :—" We are assured that the affair of
Neuchatel has taken a ,favourable turn during the
last few days. Instructions for the ambassador at
Paris, Count de Hatzfeldt, are to be sent off in a
few days, and it is said that they are of such a
nature as to leave no doubt of the early conclusion
of the affair."

According to letters from Hamburg, in the New
Prussian Gazette, it appears that the last ac-
counts given of the proceedings of the Schleswig
Diet went too far, in saying that they had de-
cided that the German language should be the
one generally u-ied. What really took place was
the adoption of a proposition for an address
to the King, praying his Majesty to interfere in
favour of instruction in the German language.
His proposition was adopted after a very stormy
discussion, which lasted not less than seven hours.
The session of the States of Schleswig has been
closed, but before separating it rejected the propo-
sition of the Government, relative to the levying
of the taxes for the years 1856-57 and 1857-58. It
was on the occasion of this rejection that the Royal
Commissioner declared that such conduct was a
violation of the constitution, and rendered the
majority responsible for the consequences which
may result from it.

SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of the 23d do not contain
any political news of interest. The Epoca says that
Marshal Serrano, ambassador at Paris, was about
to return to Madrid on leave of absence to take
part in the deliberations of the Senate. The cold
had become much less severe in Madrid, but a good
deal of sickness was prevalent. The Queen had
given a magnificent ball, and opened it by dancing
with the Duke de Valencia (Narvaez) ; her Ma-
jesty afterwards danced with the French ambassa-
dor. It appears from an official return, that from
May, 1849, vp to July, 1856, 2,866 kilometrei
(1,791 miles) of railway had been conceded, and
that 506 of them are now being worked, and 1,474
in construction.

BANK ACTS COMMITTEE.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved
that Mr. Weguelin and Mr. Blackburn be added to this
committee.

Mr. CAYLEY objected to the motion, remarking
that the Governor of the Bank of England was not a
proper person to be on the committee, inasmuch as be
would be a witness. He also complained that the com-
mittee was unfairly constituted.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said
that when he first nominated this committee he was re-
commended to reduce it to the ordinary number of 15,
and he then stated that he had adopted the number of
22, because that was the number on the former com-
mittee. With respect to the governor of the bank being
examined as a witness, he could only say that it was net
at all unusual for a member of a committee to be ex-
amined before it. The hon. member (Mr. Cayley) had.
a motion on the paper to add three members to that
committee, and the hon. member for Dublin proposed to
add another. If it were the wish of the house to increase
the number of the committee he should make no objec-
tion.
The motion was then agreed to.
Mr. GROGAN thereupon moved that the committee
consist of twenty-three members, and that Mr. Vance
be added to it.
Mr. CAYLEY moved that the committee consist of
twenty-six members, and that Mr. Laing, Mr. Edward
Ball, and Mr. James McGregor be added,
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER sug-
gested that the number should be twenty-four.
The SPEIKEII was about to put the motion, when
Mr. CAYLEY said he must resist it. His objection
was that it was an unfairly constituted committee.
Mr. W. WILLIAMS thought that the committee
was too large.
The motion as proposed by the CLIANCILDon of the
EXCHEQUER was then agreed to.
FOREIGN LEGIONS.
Colonel DUNNE moved for address for returns of
the number of officers, non commissioned
during the
commissioned officers, and
men enlisted in each of the foreign
p ses incurrea for re-
late war ; stating in detail
811 "liter:Von of each corps ;

of subsistence while serving;

of the amount of any pay or allowance granted to each,
and the services they are expected to perform ; and, of
the annual expense of arming, clothing, and subsisting
these soldiers, together with the numbers of each rank
who have been thus located.—Agreed to.
The house adjourned at a quarter past 7.
