The Moniteur du Soir, of yesterday evening, says
—" We are assured that the Government, taking
into account the susceptibilities which have been
manifested in the Assembly, has consented to "modify
as follows the principal article of the Bill relative to
the frais de representation of the President of
the Republic—' an extraordinary credit of
is opened on the estimates of 1850 for
the frais de representation of the President
of the Republic. We are also assured that this form
will alone be admitted by the Government, which
will reject that which would consist in modifying its
Bill in the following terms An extraordinary
credit of is opened for frais extraordinaires de
representation of the President of the Republic.'
This latter form would imply a sort of disguised
blame, which the Government (le Pouvoir) owes it
to its dignity not to accept."
The amendment to the Dotation Bill accepted by
the Ministers was yesterday carried in the Assembly
by a majority of 46. The following is a report of the
discussion :
At half-past two o'clock M. Dupin, President, took
the chair, when, after voting a Bill of local interest, by
1 473 to 153, the Assembly commenced the discussion on
the Dotation of the President of the Republic.
M. Fould, Minister of Finance, said that he deemed
it his duty to make known the exact state of the case
and indicate the object of the law. Some had perceived
in it a hidden idea and an arriere pensee, against which
be protested. To leant. no reason to, doubt the sin-
cerity of their motives Ministers, hitdaccepted an amend-
ment, to which the most, einilgnpzion oggie,,AssertibltE
had given their sanction. The amendment., provided
that as extraprdipary.orOit 2,1P0,9901.7,,ah0u1d be
epene'd. in the :Ministry-Of,Vianee'for the extraordinary
extienses a th'Presidert of the ltepublic. It was infe-
rior by 240,000 f. to the-credit required bi.:AO Cabinet,
but that sum represented an allocation made in! the
budget of public works for the expenses,of the palette of
the Elysee, and: the original sum svita.Accordingly pre-
served. This course would reserve the rightmfifuture
interference, and protect the dignity of the.two Powers.
M. Mathieu de la DrOme, who followed, announced
that he would combat both the proposition of the com-
mittee, who consented to grant 1,600,000 E, and the
amendment read by M. Fould. He would say nothing
offensive to the President of the Republic. M. Louis
Napoleon was generous and disinterested. He was
reared in the school of misfortune, and spent part of his
life in exile and in prison. His tastes were simple,
and he considered his constitutional salary amply
sufficient for all his wants. It was to the avidity of
some of his friends that this additional demand must
be attributed. They found themselves too much con-
fined in the palace of the E1y562, and were anxious to
remove to the Tuileries. The project would bring the
President and the Presidency itself into disrepute. It was
inspired by a monarchical reminiscence, and was in-
tended to throw a purple robe over the shoulders of the
nephew of the Emperor, under the pretence of convert-
ing him into a second Providence. After the dotation,
a demand to prolong the duration of the Presidency for
10 years would be presented,. and God knows what else
afterwards.
M. Seveste, the next speaker, said that the Bill was
both impolitic and inopportune, and praised the Com-
mittee for having patriotically exerted itself to devise an
honourable means of conciliation for both powers. The
friends of the Cabinet had declared that the Assem-
bly could not reject the Bill without the loss of its
consideration in the eyes of the country and the en•
tiro world.—(Load murmurs on the Right.) M. Seveste
thought that it was not 3,000,000 f that were called
for, but leave to apply the funds of the State without
control, to encourage the arts and relieve misfortune.
He did not dread a misunderstanding between the two
powers. Nobody would regret it more sincerely, if such
a contingency was possible. He thought, however, that
the Assembly once yielded to that pressure and intimi

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT,

HOTThiE OF LORDS, June 25.
Their Lordships met to-day at Half-past Four o'clock.
ROYAL ASSENT.
The Royal Assent was given- by Commission to the
following public and private Bills:—
Judges of Assize.
Pirates Head Money Repeal.
Greenwich Hospital Improvement:
Shrewsbury and Hereford Railway.
Forth and Clyde Navigation.
Guardian Fire and Lite Assurance.
South-Eastern Railway (Amendments of Acts, Power to

raise Additional Capital).
Railway Companies' Clearing Association.
C hild wall Waterworks.
London and Blackwall Railway. •
Waterford and Limerick Railway, '
New North Road (Amendment of the Act of last

Session)
Dumfries and Maxwell Town Waterworks.
Cobbe's Divorce.
The Lords Commissioners were Lord Langdale, the
Earl of Minto, and Earl Granville.
Their Lordships then resumed.
Lord STANLEY presented petitions against any com-
promise on the Ten Hours Bill as at present advised;
he saw no reason for the compromise, and he should
support the amendment of his Noble Friend for restoring
the Ten Hours Bill; also a petition against beer shops;
and a petition from Preston, praying for an Act of in-
corporation.
Lord WHARNCLIFFE denied that the new Factory
Bill was intended to obviate a mere technical objection.
Its object was to make the Bill of 1847 workable.
Lord STANLEY contended that it was intended merely
to remove a technical difficulty.
POST-OFFICE: SUNDAY REGULATIONS.
The Earl of CHICHESTER presented a petition
against Post-office labour on Sunday.
Lord BROUGHAM had received several letters
this day from persons, complaining of the incon-
venience that had arisen from the abolition of Post-
office delivery on Sunday. In one of these cases
a great additional labour on the Sunday bad been
the consequence. At Castleton, in Derbyshire.
in consequence of the non-dispatch of letters between
three o'clock on Saturday and three o'clock on Monday.
a manufacturer, whose waggoner had been killed on
Saturday, the owner of the waggon had been obliged to
dispatch a special messenger to Leeds, to Manchester,
and to various other places, so that instead of a letter
going to each of these places various men
were obliged to be dispatched to various places,
and in every part of the kingdom the last
Sunday had been compulsorily desecrated, because the
Post-office would not deliver letters on Sunday. All
merchants having bills owing at Liverpool were com-
pelled to dispatch,so or .60 clerks on Sunday to Lon-
don to,nieet Moriday, instead of three or
four Post-office clerks being employed on that day, and
thus the deseerationeei-the Sabbath was forced on the
merchants and thetriclarks:s. irs, d•
SHERIFF OF-WEST-MORLAND
The- Maigiii-s of •LA/4ISDOWN naceted the th,rd
reading of `Which itithoil third,.
reading her Majesty ,to,
appoint the sheriff` Of Westmorland. -The' shrievalty
of Westmorland had been hereditary in the • fainily
the Earl of Thanet that earldom was bow in abeyance?
and ft. was nut probableihat the" hereditary shrietalty
would revive ; and, therefore',' this 'Bill 'authorised ter
Majesty to appoint the sheriff.
Lord REDESDALE moved the insertion of certain
words, which would save any contingent rights of par-
ties to the hereditary shrievalty.
Lord BROUGHAM wished the Bill to pass, as it
went to remedy a great inconvenience.
Lord CAMPBELL supported the Bill. He con-
sidered it most inexpedient that the office of hereditary
sheriff should continue, and he denied that any injury
was done by this Act to any individual.
After a tew words from Lord REDESDALE, the
Bill was read a third time and passed.
DRAINAGE (IRELAND) BILL.
The Marquis of LANSDOWNE gave notice that
he should move the suspension of the standing orders,
in order to expedite the progress of this Bill.
LEASEHOLD TENURE OF LAND (IRELAND)
BILL.
Lord BEAUMONT, in moving that the House should
resolve itself into a Committee on the above Bill, said
that the amendments which he proposed might be in-
serted in the Bill in Committee, and having been printed
could be discussed fully en a future occasion. He would
allow a sufficient time after they were printed to be
considered, and ho hoped the Solicitor-General would
have no objection to them.
The Earl of WICKLOW said it was not his intention
to oppose the proposed measure • indeed, without being
aware of the precise nature of the amendments to be in-
troduced by the Noble Baron he could not undertake to
do so. The Noble Earl then went into a history of the
original Bill, which had been introduced by the Lord
Chancellor, and had been founded on the recommenda-
tions of the Devon Commission.
The Marquis of WESTMEATH said nothing could
make a measure like that a just one, which was essen-
tially unjust, and could never be deemed otherwise.
After a few words from Lord MONTEAGLE,
The Bill passed through Committee, and was reported
with amendments.
THE ABOLITION OF 'NIB IRISH VICEROY-
ALTY. . ,

dation, it would forfeit its dignity and all claim to the
sympathy and confidence of the -nation. For his part,
he should never consent tO fortify the Government at the
expense of liberty, and would vote against the Bill.
M. Huguenin combated the Bill by the same argu-
ments as M. Mathieu de la Drome, and was followed by
M. Leo de Laborde, who asked leave to reply to
a few words of the latter relative to Monarchy.
During the election for the Presidency, the friends
of General Cavaignac and M. Ledru Rollin de-
clared that those who voted for Louis Napoleon
voted against the Republic. Three to one nevertheless
voted in his favour. Universal suffrage consulted a se-
cond time, on the 13th of May, returned a majority of
550 Conservative Members, and, if consulted a third
time, it would devise an issue for the situation and a re-
medy to the dangers which menaced society.—(" Yes,
Henry V.," cried several Members on the Left.)
The Assembly afterwards declared the general dis-
cussion closed, and the President read the resolution
proposed by the majority of the Committee and the fol-
lowing amendment moved by the minority, and adopted
by the Government:—" An extraordinary credit of
2,160,0001. fur the expenses of the President of the
Republic, is opened in the Ministry of Finance, for 1850."
Another 'amendment presented by M. Dampierre, pro-
posed to grant the same sum, but wished it to be allo-
cated for two years, 1849 and 1850.
The discussion then opened on the course to be pur-
sued, what resolution should first come under considera-
tion. M. Favreau moved that the amendment contain-
ing the largest amount should be first discussed, and
cited several precedents in favour of his opinion.
M. Laroche combated that proposition, and contended
that the amendment proposing the smallest amount
should be the first discussed—he meant that moved by
the majority of the Committee, reducing the sum to
1,600,000 f. for expenses incurred in 1849 and 1850. The
amendment adopted by the Cabinet was a mere modifica-
tion of the original Bill, the character of which remained
unchanged.—(Murmurs on some benches.)
M. Kerdrel contended that the amendment which
should first be discussed was that accepted by the Mi-
nistry. This course was agreed to, after a short reply
from M. Baroche.
General Changarnier next rose and said that no Go-
vernment had done more than the present to calm divi-
sions and restore confidence, and yet none was more
bitterly assailed by parties. If he had an advice to give,
it would be to vote the integrity of the credit simply,
nobly, and in a manner becoming a great Assembly. tie
could not conceive an idle discussion and chicanery of
words, and he entreated his colleagues to abridge it and
vote for the amendment accepted by the Cabinet.
The Assembly afterwards decided that the ballot
should take place at the tribune.
The result of the scrutin was as follows:
Number of voters ... 663
Absolute majority ... ... ... 332
For the amendment ... 354
Against it ... 308
The amendment was accordingly declared to be
adopted.
M. Leo de Laborde next rose and proposed to reduce
the indemnity of the members of the National Assembly
from 9,000 f. to 6,000 f. annually.
The previous question, loudly called for by the Right,
was put to the vote and adopted.
The entire Bill having been afterwards adopted, the
Assembly adjourned at a quarter past five o'clock.
9s

The Marquis of LONDONDERRY begged to with-
draw for the present the important motion upon the
above subject, of which he had given notice, and to fix
it for Thursday next. The reason why he did so was
that some Noble Lords who wished to be present on the
consideration of so important a question could not be
so that evening; and, moreover, a Noble and Learned
Friend of his also requested him to postpone it, as it
would be more convenient. for him to hear the statement
about to be made on Thursday next.
Motion accordingly postponed.
CRIME AND OUTRAGES (IRELAND) ACT CON-

FRIGHTFUL OCCURRENCE AND LOSS OF LIFE.-
Yesterday morning, between eleven and twelve_o'clock, an
accident of a most deplorable character, by which one per-
son was killed and several others severely injured, happened
in one of the workshops formerly used by the Philanthropic
Society, St. George's-fields, Loudon-road, Southwark. Since
the society have removed their establishment to Red-hill, a
number of dwelling-houses have been erected on the ground.
Mr. Hird, the builder, having retained one of the boys'
workshops, some of his men occupied the building for French
polishing the fixtures used in the new premises. At the time
before mentioned there were five or six men engaged at their
work in this building, when all of a sudden the iron columns
which supported the beams and roof were seen by one of

fore obliged to retreat. The men fought for an hour and a
quarter, at the end of which time Brown was completely ex-
hau,ted, and lay upon the turf vomiting blood freely. The
backers and seconds had him immediately conveyed to a
railway carriage, but before the train arrived at Nottingham
he died. Upon hearing the fate of his antagonist, Hall im-
mediately decamped, along with the seconds and others en-
gaged in the affair. As soon as the polic were made ac-
quainted with the circumstance they commenced an active
pursuit, and succeeded in capturing George Clay, one of the
seconds, and doubtless the others will soon be taken. Hall
