IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF LORDS, April 22.

The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the Woo'
ck at Five o'Clock.
DISSENTERS' CHAPELS BILL.

Lord DACE% presented seven petitions in favour
of the Dissenters' Chapels Bill, but the designations of
the petitioners were not heard in the gallery.
The Duke of WELLINGTON presented a peti-
tion to the same effect from a place in Lancashire.
Lord BROUGHAM presented a similar petition
from a congregation in Belfast.
MESSAGE FROM. THE COMNIONS.

Mr. GREENE and others from the Commons brought
up the Hartlepool Harbour and Dock Bill, the Yar-
mouth and Norwich Railway Act Amend:nent Bill,
the North British Railway Bill, the Brandon and Nor-
wich, and other Bills.
PRESBYTERIAN MARRIAGES.

Lord BROUGHAM presented a great number of
petitions from congregations of Presbyterians in
Donegal, Trim, Down, and other parts of the north
of Ireland, in favour of Presbyterian marriages. The
Noble and Learned Lord presented also a petition
from the National Association for the Political and
Social Improvement of the People, complaining that
they had not been able to obtain a certificate, which
would exempt them from paying taxes for their pre-
mises ; also a petition from the Mayor and Corpora-
tion of Nottingham (as we understood), praying for
the alteration and amendment of the Bankruptcy laws.
Lord NORMANBY presented a petition from the
Dissenting congregation of a place in the north of
Ireland, expressing surprise and alarm at the nature
and probable results of the Bill brought in by the
Noble Lord on the Woolsack, entitled the Dissenters'
Chapels Bill, and praying their Lordships not to allow
it to pass. The Noble Lord presented another
petition from the ministers and presbytery of a con-
gregation in Yorkshire, expressive of their approba-
tion of the provisions of the Bill, and hoping that it
might be allowed to pass into a law (Laughter.)
Lord CAMPBELL presented several petitions
against the Dissenters' Chapels Bill.
After a few words from Lord Brougham, the Lord
Chancellor, and Lord Cottenham, the Debtors and
Creditors' Bill, which stood for a second reading, was
postponed till Monday next.
Lord NORMANBY presented a petition from the
members of a Presbyterian congregation in the north
of Ireland, praying for an alteration in the existing
marriage laws.

NEW GATE AND LEADENITAiI.

The supply of meat being tolerably extensive, and the
attendance of buyers not so large as on some previous mar-
ket days, the trade ruled heavy, on the following terms:--
Beef, from 2s 4d to 3s 4d; Mutton, 2s 6d to 3s 8d; Lamb,
3s 8d to 4s 8d; Veal, 3s 4d to 48 4d ; and Pork, 25 4d to 3s
10d per 81bs by the carcase. Although the supplies of
Poultry were scanty, the demand was in a very sluggish
state, and prices were not supported.

NIAN MILITARY SCHOOL.

Mr. M. J. O'CONNELL said that, of seventeen children
who had changed their religion lately, in the Royal
'Hibernian Military School, eight of them were children
between the age of eight and nine.
Lord ELIOT said that no person more strongly dis-
approved than he did of attempts to proselytise yount
children. It appeared that some of those children had
of themselves manifested a desire to go to Church, and
some, whose fathers were absent, did so by the desire of
their mothers.

Mr. M. J. O'CONNELL said he would give notice on
the subject for next session.

THE MOST EXTENSIVE' CONCERN OF THIS SOIL
IN THE WORLD.'`
The rein of pure slates is ascertained to be 'no less than 180
yards wide, and at least half a mile in length, without any ob.
struction, and as deep as any parties may feel inclined to go,
whereivhere is sufficient quantity of that useful material
TO SUPPLY THE WHOLE WORLD FOR CENTURIES;
and with good Management the profits would—could not.bo less
than Tihtn 100 to 150 per cent. upon the outlay, after it is put in
proper order. Another desirable thing belonging to this concern
is, that the covert of earth on the surface is only two or three yards
deep, whereas most of the quarries are under ten or fifteen yards
cover. The workshops; waggons, and working utensils are in
good repair, as also the road, three miles of which has been made
at the expense of nearly 2,000/. The distance to a capital ship.
ping wharf is only seven miles, and but nine to the intended

CHESTER. AND HOLYHEAD GREAT RAILWAY.
The name of the concern is the Cedryn Quarry,' situate about
ten miles from Banger, and the same distance from Conway and
Llanrwst, in the centre between the three towns.

" It is held under the Right Hon. Lord Newborough for an un-
expired term of twenty.eight years, which can be extended at any
time.

" In conclusion, we can only add that the Quarry ought to pro,
duce a considerable sum, as it is

TREATY OF NAVIGATION WITH HANOVER,

Sir H. PEEL announced that a treaty of commerce
and navigation had been agreed to between her Majesty
and the ing of Hanover. _

A copy of the treaty was laid upon the table.
MERCHANT VESSELS.

Lord INGESTRE asked whether it was the intention
of the Board of Admiralty to institute any examination
for masters and mates of merchantmen?

Mr. S. HERBERT was understood io say that it was
very difficult to legislate on the matter, but the Govern-
ment would take no merchantmen into their service, the
mates and masters of which had not undergone the regu-
lar examination.

CAPTAIN WARNER.
Lord INGES FRE said that, in the previous debate
an allusion had been made by a Gallant Officer oppo-
site to the blowing up of a vessel at Brighton. That
Gallant Officer ha.d hinted that a buoy and tow rope had
been used, and he wished to assure the Hon. and Gallant
Gentleman, who he regretted was not in his glace, that
the buoy and tow rope were in no wise connected with
the blowing up of the vessel.

LONDON, SATURDAY

customary for the planters to sit on the bench with the
judge, thus creating great distrust in the minds of the
people concerning the due administration of the law.
The Hon. Member concluded by moving for the produc-
tion of all papers connected with the recent riots in
Dominica.
Lord STANLEY said be believed the Hon. Member
was correct in referring the origin of the riots to a
misunderstanding on the part of the native population of
Dominica in the object of the Government in making
the census. Unfortunately, the Governor of the islarid
had been absent from ill-health, but was now about to
return to them. He had received correspondence
from Dominica to the 6th of June last, and he was
happy to say that the:native population, having been in-
formed of the nature and objects of the census, were
now, so far from being opposed to it, entirely in favour of
the census, and gave the framers of it all the assistance
in their power. Regarding the papers moved for by the
Hon. Gentleman, he hoped he would not press for their
production until the sth of September, when they should
be laid on the table of the House.

Mr. HAWES expressed his concurrence in this
course.

They were agreed to.
PRESi3YTERIANISM IN THE ROYAL lIIBER-

MAN 'MILITARY SCHOOL.
Mr. M.J.O'CI)NNELL said that, of seventeen children
who had changed their religion lately, in the Royal
Ilibet nian Military School, eight of them were children
between the age of eight and nine.
Lord ELIO I' said that no person more strongly dis-
approved than he did of attempts to proselytise young
children. It appeared that some of those children had
of themselves manifested a desire to go to Church, and
some, whose fathers were absent, did so by the desire of
their mothers.

Mr. M. J. O'CONNELL said he would give notice on
the subject for next session.
JOINT-STOCK COMPANIES' REMEDIES AT

LAW BILL.

The SOLICITOR-G ERAL moved that the Lords'
amendment to this Bill be agreed to.
lir. HAWES said the amendments were quite new,
and he thought that, as the session was adjourned
till the sth of September, time could be allu%. ed to con-
sider them.

The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said the amendments
added underwent considerable discussion in the House of
Lords. They received the assent of all the Law Lords,
and the object of them was to carry out the views which
seemed to be entertained by the House of Commons.
He hoped the Hon. Gentleman would not persevere in
asking the House to wait for further time.

After some discussion the amendments were agreed to,
The House then adjourned at,a Quarter past Eight.

A SERIOUS NUISANCE.

The inquest jury of Aldersgate-ward made a
formal presentment of a whalebone manufactory kept
at No. 69, Aldersgate, by a Mr. Westall. The pre-
sentment described the nuisance as altogether odious
and intolerable.

Mr. GODSON (the Deputy of the ward) addressed
the Court upon the subject. He believed the laxity
which had marked the conduct of the authorities in
regard to Puddle-dock, and other dreadfully offensive
sinks of the City, was occasioning a total disregard,
as it would appear, of the health and comfort of the
inhabitants of the City elsewhere. He was so unfor-
tunate as to live next door to the whalebone manu-
factory which excited so much disgust, and the neigh-
bours actually thought that he fancied and he
favoured the offence, as he was not for ever crying
out against it.—(A laugh.) He had witnessed
the meat markets in their worst condition, but the
stench of the worst of them, at the worst of seasons,
was nothing compared with the stench arising from
the working of the whalebone. To the vaults of a
crowded churchyard alone could he compare it, and
he assured the Court that in that description there
was no exaggeration. He referred, if any proof be-
yond that afforded by passers-by appeared to be ne-
cessary, to the fact, that the house adjoining the ma-
nufactory, although spacious and commodious, was
empty, and to defy any man to introduce his family
to the vicinity of such an abomination. It happened
that this business was extremely lucrative, the last
resident having retired, after having, in a few years,
realised 100,0001. by stinking the ward, so that un-
less the Court would use its powerful authority to
cause the removal or abatement of the nuisance, there
would it remain, a perpetual source of annoyance.
The RECORDER intimated that the best course
would be to indict the manufactory as a nuisance.
That the parish could do.
Sir P. LAURIE (the Alderman of the ward) said
he did not wish to interfere in any matter of the kind,
except the occasion seemed to him to be very pressing.
He certainly had heard of the offensive nature of the
nuisance alluded to, and he believed it would not be
easy to find in the whole list of villainous smells any
compound producing a more intolerable effluvia.
The RECORDER asked whether it could be proved
that the stench was prejudicial to health?
Mr. GODSON replied that he could prove that it
occasioned sickness of the stomach. He suggested to
the Court the propriety of referring the question to
a Committee.

Alderman MUSGROVE said that if the subject were
referred to a Committee expectations might be raised
which it would be impossible to satisfy, and others
might come to that Court to seek the abatement of
other nuisances which ought to be met by indict-
ments by the parochial authorities.
The RECORDER advised the jury by all means to
prosecute by indictment.
The presentment was then recorded, and ordered
to lie upon the table.
The Court, without proceeding to any further bu-
siness, adjourned.
