AFFAIRS OF TURKEY.

Mr. BANKES rose to ask a question of Lord Palmer-
ston ; but, from the confusion caused by Members leaving
the House, it was very indistinctly heard in the gallery.—
We understood the Hon. Member to allude to an article
which he had read in a French Paper; respecting the
signing of a second treaty, and to ask if it were intended
to lay any such document before the House:

Lord PALMERSTON recollected the article alluded to
by the Hon. Member; it was extracted, he believed, from
the Augsbutgh Gazette, but there was no truth in the
statement. No such treaty had been signed. Under the
treaty of July there were to be conferences between the
representatives of the different Powers, who were to meet,
from time to time, to hear and communicate what was
passing ; and such conferences there had doubtless been.
What passed at them it must be clear to the Hon. Member
must not be divulged, for the same reasons which induced
the refusal olother papers connected with the same affairs.
Mr. BANKES said he would not pursue the subject any
further.

Mr. BANKES moved that there be laid before the
House an account of the Salary and Commission of the
three Architects of Works ; and also of any payments
and allowances that had been made in respect of any Royal
Palaces or Public Buildings. After a few observations
the motion was carried.

Mr. BANKES brought in a Bill to relieve the Roman
Catholics of Ireland from the payment of double Land-tax.
The Bill, without opposition, was read a first time, and or-
dered to be printed and read a second time on Monday
next. The House then adjourned.
