IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT

HOUSE OF COMMONS.—Tms DAT.
The SPEAKER took the chair at twelve o'clock.
CHURCH RATES ABOLITION BILL.
Mr. HARDCASTLE postponed the second reading of
this bill until the Bth of April.
CHURCH RATES REGULATION BILL.
On the motion for the second reading of this bill, which
is brought forward by Mr. HUBBARD, the object of which
is plainly set forth in the title,
Sir STAFFORD NORTHCOTE suggested that the bill
should be postponed until the Bth April, in order that the
house might be enabled to go into committee on the
bill brought forward by Mr. Gladstone. The hon. mover
of the second reading felt indisposed at first to agree to the
suggestion, but, on the urgent appeal of Mr. Walpole, he
eventually consented to postpone proceeding with the bill
until the day mentioned.
CHURCH RATES COMMUTATION BILL.
Mr. NEWDEGATE also postponed the second reading
of this bill.

COMPULSORY CHURCH.. RATES ABOLITION
BILL.
The house then went into committee upon this bill,
which was brought forward by Mr. GLADSTONE.
On clause 1 being read,
Mr. HENLEY moved its omission. He was opposed to
the unconditional abolition of church rates, and therefore
he could not agree to the clause, which proposed that all
compulsory church rates should bo abolished.
The house divided, when there appeared—

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.

STEALING . a CHEQUE.-At the Middlesex Sessions,
before Mr. E. W. Cox, Elizabeth Jones ..ad Ellen Smith
were indicted for robbing John Hiett. —The prosecutor,
an agent, living at Islington, said that on the night of the
7th inst. he was walking up Pentonville-hill, when the
prisoners came up to him and accosted him. Jones asked
him to go home with her, and the other prisoner asked him
to treat them. He put his hand into his pocket to give them
some money, and immediately missed a cheque. He accused
Jones of stealing it, and said he should give her into custody,
and a policeman coming up he gave them both into his
charge. Albertine, 24 Y, said he was on duty on the
tight in question when he saw the prosecutor standing with
the prisoners. He saw Jones pass something to Smith, who
walked away. Prosecutor cried out that he was robbed,
and he (witness) went up and took them into custody. On
the way to the station the prisoner Smith dropped some-
thing, which proved to be the prosecutor's cheque. Re.
passing up and down Pentonville-hill
spectable persons
were very much annoyed by the prisoners and others of
her class. The jury found the prisoners guilty. Mrs.
Howe, warder at the Female Prison, Westminster, proved
a lot of convictions against the prisoners. Mr. E. W. Cox
sentenced Jones to seven years and Smith to &ye years'
penal servitude.

Mary of Teck and the Prince of Teck honoured the per-

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—Holloway's Ointment and Pills.—
The most effectual cure for Gout and Rheumatism.—A
frequent cause of those complaints is the inflammatory
state of the blood, attended with bad digestion, lassitude,
and great debility, showing a want of the proper circula-
tion of the fluid, and impurity of the blood greatly aggra-
vates these disorders. Holloway's pills aro of so purifying
a nature that a few doses taken in time are an effectual
preventative against gout and rheumatism, but any one
that has an attack of either should use Holloway's oint-
ment also, the powerful properties of which, combined
insure a certain cure. The
with the effect of the pills,
ointment should be thoroughly rubbed into the parts
affected at least twice a day, after they have been suffi-
ciently fomented with warm water to open the pores
to facilitate the introduction of the ointment to the
glands.

CALCUTTA AND SOUTH-EASTERN.

The directors of this company state in a circular
to the shareholders that ever since the year 1863
the railway has been worked at a loss, which has
hitherto been provided for by arrangement with the
Government, without causing any deduction to he
made from the half-yearly payments of interest.
In future, however, any deficit will have to be met
by payment out of the guaranteed interest. The
company was called into existence by a proposition
to make a new port at Canning for the accommoda-
tion of the mercantile interest of Calcutta. The
proposition, emanating from the Bengal Chamber
of Commerce, received the cordial support of Lord
Dalhousie, then Governor-General of India. Lord
Canning, the successor of Lord Dalhouse, added the
weight of his approval to the port, and in an official
despatch declared that it was " an experiment which
the Government had determined to aid and encou-
rage to the best of its power." Subsequently Lord
Stanley, Secretary of State for India, by granting a
guarantee of interest on the capital to be expended,
established the railway. Colonel Baker, at the
instance of the Government, surveyed the line, and
in his report to the Government of Bengal, assum-
ing the ultimate transfer of the traffic of the
Hooghly to the Mutlah, reekoued on a profit of
£55,000 per annum, which on the present capital
would give a dividend of more than 9 per cent.
Shortly, however, after Lord Canning's retirement
from office there came a change. It was observed
that many works necessary to the very existence of
a commercial town were found wanting. 'The
directors have at length come to the conclusion
that the best course for the proprietors to adopt
will be to surrender the line to the Government on
receiving back their capital intact, and they have
accordingly called the promoters together for the
purpose of taking their opinion on the subject. Sir
Stafford Northcote fully admits that the disappoint-
ments of the proprietors are not due to any mis-
management of the board. The directors believe
that had the same policy which encouraged the in-
troduction of the scheme been adhered to they would
have now been enabled to meet the proprietors with
a very different report.

CCANDLES.—If you do not want your candles
exclusively for show, but with pleasantness of appearance
require excellence of burning, buy "PRICE'S GOLD MEDAL
PALMITINE," or their " SFIERWOOD PALMITINE," or their
good old-fashioned "BELMONT SPERM." or "BELMONT
WAX," or their " BEST,''' " o. 2," "N o. 3," or " BATTERSEA "
COMPOSITE, hi preference to the finest and most transparent
Paraffine candles. But if you must hate the extreme trans-
parency of pure Paraffine, "PRICE'S PARAFFINE" or their
"BELMONTINE" will give it to you in perfection, and at a more
moderate price than is usually charged for any other really first-
class Paraffine Candles.
The new toilet soap "PRICE'S SOLIDIFIED GLYCERINE,"
containing half its weight of their concentrated distilled Glyce-
rine, should be in general use in every house before the winter
comes on, because of its admirable effects in preventing chap-
ping of the hands and face. In every house there ought also to
be one of the sealed bottles of their concentrated Distilled Gly-
cerine, known everywhere as "PRICE'S GLYCERINE," and
prescribed by the most eminent medical men abroad as well as at
home, as the one only Glycerine for medicinal use whether ex-
ternally or internally.
PRICE'S FA • CY SOAPS of the different sorts usually made
are excellent, and command a constantly increasing sale. The
"Solidified Glycerine" spoken of above is, however, the one fancy
soap to use.

"'PRICE'S NEW PATE \ T NIGHT LIGHTS," for burning
in the wide glasses are believed to,be the very best Night Lights
made. "PRICE'S CHLLDS' NIGHT LIGHTS," for burning
without glasses, and their different sorts of "CHAMBER CA A -
DLES" are so well known, and so generally used and appre-
ciated, as not to need any special notice here.

It affords relief to a large number of in-patients, and, in adcri-

sick has for a considerable period averaged between 3,000 and
4,000 weekly.
The Committee earnestly solicit the assistance of the benevo-

several hundred more beds had the Committee the requisite funds
to maintain them.

MINING INTELLIGENCE.

Tho El Dorado (south) this week forwarded
6,600 pounds of ore to Austin for reduction, which
certainly will work up to a high figure. A few
days, however, have elapsed since the shipment
was made, and development has progressed in the
meantime. The body of ore in the incline has
increased so wonderfully in richness during the
past few days as to create astonishment in the
minds of those who behold it. Compared to that
which is at present taken from the mine, the lot sent
to Austin will rank only as medium or second-
class. The incline has now been driven 12 feet

below the point at which the good ore was first
struck; it is following the foot wall, arid is about
5 feet iu height. Four feet of the vein imme-
diately adjoining the foot wall is a mass of
mineral, probably the richest body of argenti-
ferous ore ever disclosed in any mine in the
State, while the remainder above will probably
mill upwards of $lOO a ton. The total length of
the incline is 112 feet, giving a -vertical depth from
the surface to this body of ore of about 70 feet.
In fact, it is the most extraordinary strike ever
made here, and enhances the value of all mining
and other property in this section of country. It
will detract nothing from the merits of the other
magnificent veins if we assert our belief, and the
developments of the past week warrant it, that the
El Dorado is the great mother vein of Philadelphia
District, and to its superiority in many particulars
must all other yield the palm.—Silver Bend Re-
porter, Belmont, Nevada, U.S., Dec. 14, 1867.
From present appearances the product this month
of the famous Murphy mine of the Twin River
Company will exceed that of any month since the
mine was opened. Last evening eight bars, valued
at $9,000, arrived in the city, making twenty-nine
bars received so far this month. The value of these
bars is about $30,000. At the expiration of the
month we have not the least doubt that the mine
will have produced $BO,OOO worth of silver.

COMMON LAW.

LIGHTING THE AGRICULTURAL HALL.—In the Court of
Queen's Bench, a motion was made on behalf of the defend.
ants in the case of Defries v. Sanger, calling on the plaintiffs
to shew cause why there should not be a new trial, on the
ground that the verdict was against the weight of evidenc ;
The r-;tion was L: ought by essrs. Defr:',•s, the gla—
chandelier manufacturers, against Messrs. Sange-,
the proprietors of a circus, and who are so we I
known in connection with their entertainments at the
Agricultural Hall, to recover a sum of £B7, to which the
defendants pleaded a set-off. In the course of the trial at
the Bail Court on Tuesday last, it was alleged by the
defendants that the plaintiffs had used their chandeliers at
a series of concerts, and at the ball to the Belgian Volun-
teers at the Agricultural Hall, although they had stated
that they had taken them down and packed them up care-
fully. This was denied by the plaintiffs, who obtained a
verdict. A rule nisi was granted.

COMPENSATION CASES.—In the Sheriffs' Court, before
Mr. Under-Sheriff Burchell and a special jury, the case
of Roots v. the Great Eastern Railway was heard. The
property for which compensation was claimed is situate at
the Triangle, Hackney, and after a consultation a verdict
was taken by consent for £9oo.—ln the case of Henrickson
v. the Metropolitan Board of Works, which was com-
menced yesterday, property was wanted for the purpose of
making some public improvements at Kensington—once
an unimportant metropolitan suburb, but now described
as " a second Belgravia." After a long investigation a
sum of £1,978 was awarded.

EXTRAORDINARY DAMAGE.--11l the case of Osborn v.
Read, plaintiff and defendant were farmers, in Norfolk.
The act :un was by Ce uncle of tie young woman, Emily
Fisher. She stated that she had known the defendant
for ten years, and he was her suitor. She gave birth to a
child in June last, and it was still alive. The under-
sheriff sold the jury that the only question was the
amount. The fact of the seduction was admitted. He
would merely remind them that it was not a criminal pro-
ceeding, but a civil suit—they were not there to punish the
defendant, but to award such damages as would satisfy the
justice of the case. The jury, after a few minutes' con.
sultation, gave a verdict for £3oo.—Mr. Wilkins said they
only claimed £2OO by the record.—The occurrence caused
a good deal of surprise in court, and. the learned under-
sheriff said they could only give £2OO. The jury said they
wished to give £3OO, as it wa© a bad caoc. srcvaivi,
recorded for £2OO.

DEATH OF MR. CHARLES KEAN.

We deeply regret to state that this distin-
guished actor died at eight o'clo-A last
night, after several months of suffer-
ing. While acting at Liverpool in May
last he received a paralytic stroke, and from
the effects of this attack he never recovered.

FEARFUL SHIPWRECK ON THE CORNISH

COAST.

(By Telegraph.)
PENZANCE, Thursday Morning.
Nicholas B. Downing, Esq., reports that yester-
day (Wednesday) the Prussian brig Die Sonne
was lost on the Praze Sands, nine miles from this
place. The lifeboat Richard Lewis, belonging to
the National Lifeboat Institution, was got down
there in two hours, was got down there in two
hours after receiving the intelligenee, but unfortu-
nately was too late to be of use, as the ship had
gone to pieces, and the crew of nine men were
drowned.

secure fastenings. The Lake Shore catastrophe
was caused by a bent axle, which threw the car
from the track. Axles do not bend without suffi-

cent cause ; yet nobody is to blame.

Was the

axle bent before the train started, or did it bend on

the road? How has the coroner's jury discovered

,hat it was bent before the accident occurred ? The

car was thrown down a height of 40 feet, and then
burnt; and it would be diMcult even for an intelli-
gent jury to discover what had been the f.►ults of

he car beforJ it had gone through such an ordeal.

The coroner's jury, however, attributes the accident
to a bent axle, and declares that nobody was to

blame.

John O'Neil, who has succeeded Roberts al Pre-
sident of the Fenian Senate, was born in Ireland,
whence he was carried to the United States when

very young. In 1853 he enlisted in the United

States army, and rose during the civil war to the

grade of lieutenant. At one period he commanded
a regiment of Tennessee cavalry, and as his princi-
pal service was in that State he had opportunities

of making the acquaintance of Andrew Johnson, of
whose friendship he boasts. The Fenian Senate
have issued au address to the American people, as is
their custom on any change, signed by O'Neil. It

is written in the usual " highfaluten" strain, assert-

ing and denying, bat never arguing, appealing to
everything but reason. The people of the United

States are implored not to believe the accusations

against the:a of England's hired scribes, and the

Clerkenwell and all other oUtrages are declared to
be the work of the secret agents of the " English
Government, endeavouring to bring odium upon the
national cause by the perpetration of crimes foreign
both to the genius, the instincts, and religious train-
ing of the Irish people." O'Neil is a young, hot-
headed man, who has bcen elected, it is feared, to
head an expedition into Canada. It was he who
led the Fenians across the Niagara, and in the ac-
tion at Limestone Ridge. Roberts, after some de-
mur, wrote his letter of resignation, but the
O'Mahony-Savage party have not given in their
adhesion to this arrangement.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Zay.

BOW-STREET.
CHARGE OF EMBEZZLEMENT.—At Bow-street, Chiist6Pher
Robinson, aged 13, apprentice to Mr. Parsons, law-writer,
Cursitor-street, Chancery-lane, was charged with embezzle-
ment..—The prisoner had been sent with an account, and
returned with a statement that the customer had other
work to offer, and would pay for the whole altogether.
Mr. Parsons, however, having accidentally met his cus-
tomer at Peele's Coffee-house, (fiscovered that the
amount, 10s., had been paid to the prisoner. It
was also found on inquiry that the prisoner was in
the habit of spending money, gambling, and "running up
scores" at a coffee-house near his master's office. The
landlord not only countenanced this, but joined in games
of cards and dominoes with the boy, and told Mr. Parsons
that he was not in the house when in fact he was. The
prisoner excused himself at home for keeping late hours by
pretending that he was kept at work by his master. Sir
Thomas Henry commented severely on the conduct of the
coffee-house keeper, and issued a summons for his attend-
ance on Thursday next, to which .day he remanded the
prisoner.

AIARLBOROUGH-STREET.
A CAB PROPRIETOR THREATENING TO STAB A CON-
STABLE.—AIfred Coggs, a cab proprietor, was charged
before Mr. Knox with being drunk and furiously driving
his horse and cart. Police - constable Beeves said : A
little after 12 o'clock last night, while in Pall-mall, I saw
the prisoner driving his horse and cab at the rate of 12
miles an hour. The prisoner turned out of St. James'L.
street into King-street, and nearly ran over two females,
who were much frightened, and screamed out. I went
after him and stopped him just in front of the St.
James's Theatre, and asked him to get off his -cab.
The prisoner did so, and then, seeing that he was drunk, I
took him into custody. After going some distance the
prisoner said he would go no further with me, and that
he would die first, and he then put :his hand into his
pocket and said " I'll rip your heart out." I got
the knife from him and took him to the station.—The
Prisoner : I don't recollect anything about it.—Mr. Knox:
Your conduct is as bad as it can be, and I think steps
ought to be taken to prevent your driving again. It js a
monstrous thing, taking out a knife to a constable: You
will have to pay 405., or go to prison for a month

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.

STEILING a CIIEQUE.-At the Middlesex. Sc4ons,,
before Mr. E. W. Cox, Elizabeth Jones and Ellen Smith
were indicted for robbing John Hiett. —The prosecutor,
au agent, living at Islington, said that on the night of the
7th inst. he was walking up Pentonville-hill, when the
prisoners came up to him and accosted him. Jones asked
him to go home with her, and the other prisoner asked him
to treat thew. He put his hand into his pocket to give them
some money, and immediately missed a cheque. He accused
Jones of stealing it, and said he should give her into custody,
and a policeman coming up he gave them both into his
charge. Albertine, 24 Y, said he was on duty on the
night in question when he saw the prosecutor standing with
the prisoners. He saw Jones pass something to Smith, who
walked away. Prosecutor cried out that he was robbed,
and he (witness) went up and took them into custody. On
the way to the station the prisoner Smith dropped some-
thing, which proved to be the prosecutor's cheque. Re.
passing up and down Pentonville-hill
spectable persons
were very much annoyed by the prisoners and others of
her class. The jury found the prisoners guilty. Mrs.
Howe, warder at the Female Prison, 'Westminster, proved
a lot of convictions against the prisoners. Mr. E. W. Cox
sentenced Jones to seven years and Smith to five years'
penal servitude.

THEYREFORM LEAGUE.

On Wednesday evening a meeting of the League was
held at the offices of the association, Adelphi-terrace. Mr.
Edmond Beales presided, and in opening the proceedings
said that he had written to Sir R. Mayne on Monday re-
garding the suppression of certain local branches of the
Reform League. He would read the letter he had for-
warded to the Chief Commissioner of Police, to which he
had not as yet received any reply. The following is a copy
of the communication :—" Stone-buildings,lLincoln's Inn,
Jan. 20, 1868.—Sir, the council of the Reform League
have been informed that on several occasions officers
of the police have interfered, by threatening com-
munications to the landlords and in other ways,
t ) prevent branches of the League from holding their
usual legal and constitutional meetings at certain
licensed houses, and the council have requested me
to address you on the subject. I have therefore, on the
part of the council, to express their regret at the
communication which they have thus received, they not
being aware that the meetings referred to have been of a
nature to justify their being thus interfered with, and I
have further to ask whether this interference has taken
place by your authority, or by that of the Government,
and what are the grounds for such interference. I have
the honour to be, sir, yours, &c., Eumoriu BEALE& To
Sir Richard Mayne, K.C.8." He had not, as he had said,
as yet received any answer to that communication. Pro-
ceeding to another subject, he said he was very much
pleased to be able to bring before them a programme
adopted by the Edinburgh branch of the Scottish National
Reform League. It proposed the following as the objects
of the association :-1. Assimilation of the parliamentary
electoral franchise in the counties with that in the boroughs
—that is, registered household suffrage in the boroughs
and counties. 2. Protection to the voter from intimi-
dation and coercion, and prevention of bribery by
the ballot. 3. Electoral districts of equal area
of population, with one member only to each
district. 4. No condition of personal payment of
rates as qualification of voter. 5. Increased representation
by additional members to Scotland. He cordially approved
the programme, and was confident the League would also
record its approval of the objects it proposed for consider.
ation. Alluding to the recent conference on education at
Manchester, he said he hoped that working men would no

longer exhibit any apathy as regarded the great question
of a grand system of national unsectarian education. A
resolution was then proposed that the next meeting of the
League should be made special for the consideration of the
proceedings of the late Manchester Conference on Educa-
tion. The proposal having been adopted, a communication
from the Liberal Association of Coventry was read, re-
questing that Mr. Mantle, one of the executive of the
League, should allow himself to be put in nomination for
that borough at the first election for Parliament under the
new Reform Bill. A resolution approving the proposition
having been carried, the proceedings terminated.

INDIAN CARRYING (LIMITED).

The annual general meeting of this company was
appointed to be held yesterday at the offices,
South-street, Finsbury ; Sir Macdonald Stephenson
in the chair.

Mr. H. N. Gilbank, the acting secretary, having
read the notice convening the meeting,
The CHAIRMAN said that the meeting was con
veiled in compliance with the Act, but to precut
inconvenience to the shareholders notice had been
given that it would be adjourned for a short time,
when the secretary would have returned from India,
and brought with him the particulars of the arrange-
ments finally settled with the Government for tht
return of their stock and for the termination of their
contract. The shareholders, however anxious they
might be for the fullest information, would
recognize the advisability of waiting until
the Board were enabled to lay before
them
