LUNATIC ASYLUMS BILL.

In answer to a question from Lord ASHLEY,
Sir JAMES GRAHAM said he should move the next read•
ing of the Lunatic Asylums Bill on Friday next.
SIR HENRY POTTINGER.

Mr. HUME,In rising to move for a Committee of the
whole House to consider the following resolution, " That an
humble address be presented to her Majesty, that she will be
graciously pleased to grant such a pension as she may think proper
to the Right Hon. Sir Henry Pottiuger, Bart., K. C. 8., as a
reward for his eminent public services, and especially for
having, as her Majesty's Plenipotentiary in China, brought
the war in that country to a conclusion by a peace alike
honourable and advantageous; and to assure her Majesty that
this House will make good the same"—said he regretted that her
Majesty's Ministers had not saved him the trouble of bringing
the matter before the House. He was aware that the motion

implied a degree of censure on the Ministry, but, never-
theless, he thought a public officer who had performed very
important and responsible functions to the satisfaction
of every one, was entitled to some reward for his
services. It might be asked whether it was at the request of
Sir Henry Pottinger, or any of his friends, that he had brought
the subject forward, and his answer was, that he had never
had any communication with Sir Henry Pottinger,
or any of his friends, and all he knew of the gallant
officer he had gathered from the public sources of
information. Whatever might be the result of this motion, it
could not be said that Sir Henry Pottinger was responsible
for it. The House would bear in mind that the opinion he
now entertained of that gallant officer, was not an opinion
formed in this or last year, for it was an opinion which
he had ventured to submit to the House on the

14th day of February, 1843, when Ministers brought
forward a motion of thanks to the military and naval com-
manders who had conducted the war in India. On that occa-
sion he ventured to ask the Government to move a similar
vote of thanks to Sir Henry Pottinger and those who had been
employedthe with him
Hon.himin
BthaeroneextpedoitpipoonsiteagaidnesetplyChina,
but re-
gretted that he could not concur in such a motion.
Without casting any reflection on Sir H. Pottinger's successors,
he would ask them to look back to the career which they
adopted, which gave rise to anything but hopes of an amicable
arrangement. So great was the disappointment of her Majesty's
Government that they were obliged to look around them for
some individual possessing experience. There was no one
appointed to that important command who had filled the duties
entrusted to him so much to the satisfaction of the public officers,
and so highly to the honour of the country, as Sir H. Pottinger.
When they found his conduct hailed by the people of England,
Ireland, and Scotland, was a remuneration too much to look for?
At this moment Sir Henry Pottinger had only 4191. per
annum to support the honours which have been conferred
upon him. It was the custom of this country to reward those
who were the leaders of the armies of the country, while those
who were the means of bringing about peace were almost
always forgotten. The warrior was rewarded largely, while the
pacificator and the man who was the mean; of putting an end
to hostilities were passed over, and were unnoticed. This was
one of the reasons why he had felt it to be his duty to bring
this matter under the consideration of the House. He had
done so without any communication with Sir Henry Pottinger,
having been induced to do so from a sense of justice to that
great man. He had known Sir Henry Pottinger for many
years, both in his private and public capacity, and he could
assure the House that his conduct would bear the fullest investi-
gation. While he was anxious to protect the public purse from
any improper expenditure, he would say that withholding from
officers in her Majesty's service that remuneration to which
they were justly entitled did great injury to the service. The
Hon. Gentleman then referred to Parliamentary returns, and
to other documents, to show that pensions had been granted to
those who had filled diplomatic offices. Sir Henry Pottinger
was sent to China, not as an ambassador, for this country
was not at that time on friendly terms with the celestial empire,
but to negotiate for the restoration of peace, and he performed
the important duties which devolved upon him more success-
fully than others who had been sent out with a
similar object in view. No one had been able
to accomplish so much, and those services were
both recognised by the country and the Government.
The Gallant Officer's business was to effect a treaty with
the Chinese authorities, and he was enabled to fulfil
his mission almost to the direct letter of the law.
Everything pointed out to him was accomplished by
the influence he gained over the Government of China. It
was the opinion of those who were in China at the time that
no other individual could have obtained the confidence of the
Chinese authorities as Sir Henry Pottinger did. Was it no-
thing to think that he was the first man who had ever been
able to complete a commercial treaty with China? Surely
then he was entitled to hope he had made out a sufficient case
for calling upon the House to support his motion. There were
many men distinguished, but because he was a man of certain
opinions they refused him honours and votes, or even a pecu-
niary reward. They had already drawn a line of distinction
between civil and military officers—should they not now break
through that rule and grant a reward which was deserved?
He thought he had made out a fair claim to the House, and he
begged to conclude by submitting the motion which he had
already read.

Lora SANDON seconded the motion, and said he would
shortly describe what there was in the services of the gentle-

Gall ant

gentle-
man, whose conduct had been under discussion in that House,
to
upon him. He would briefly allude to the manifold meritorious
services whichext he had rendered
raordinary rewards
under peculiar circumstances, and at great pecuniary sacrifices
and loss of health. He had finished a war in China, under
circumstances of great pain to himself, and under stipulations
of so important a nature as would drown the recollection of the
cause of its commencement in acclamations to him who had
effected so glorious a termination. He had preserved the
honour and character of his country in a manner that no other
man was capable of performing. He could not think that
such services should be met with only a trifling pecuniary re-
compence.—( Hear.) For services neither precisely civil nor
military, which opened to the world a free traffic with the
most industrious people in the world, it was not sufficient to
award a yearly comparatively trifling sum.—(Hear, hear. )
With regard to services of another nature he would
not rely simply on a priori circumstances, he
would look to the opinion of the whole mercantile world as to
the growing intercourse arising from the treaty with China,
effected by the Gallant Gentleman. He would also look to the
great moral results arising from these negotiations, which, no
doubt, would lead to the cultivation of Christianity among the
Chinese people. He could not think that the Government,
under these circumstances, would refuse to give him an ample
recompence for the dangers he had undergone, and the difficul-
ties he had overcome, and the pecuniary sacrifices he had made
in the public service, in effecting so much good. And he
would call upon Hon. Gentlemen connected with the Crown,
to come forward more freely in reward of services so ines-
timable.
The question was then put from the chair.
Sir J. HOBHOUSE did not anticipate any objection to the
measure. He considered that the present was a special case,
and it would be almost impossible for any individual to render
in a similar ,manner such highly meritorious and useful services
as had been rendered by Sir Henry Pottinger—(Hear)—and it
was unlikely that any future occasion would arrive for which
the reward for services, now about to be awarded, would con-
stitute a precedent. On the return of Sir Henry Pottinger,
in ill health, to the seat of war in the East, he had made two
stipulations only with the Administration—one was, that he
should not have any colleague to act with him in his high capa-
city, so that the responsibility might be left to himself; and the
other was, that the directions given him by the Government
should be private, and no stipulation whatever was made for
the reward of the services he should render. Sir H. Pottinger
was willing to leave the reward for those services entirely in
the hands of the Government. Lord Aberdeen, at a public
meeting, in describing the merits of the Gallant Officer, had
said, so great was the confidence of the Government in him,
that he had been left in China to act almost entirely on his
own discretion. There was no hyperbole in saying that the
distinguished services and high honours of Sir Henry Pottinger
precluded him from accepting a subordinate presidency as a
commensurate reward. He was entitled to far higher re-
wards. He would say that the present income of the Gallant
Officer was so ill-proportioned to his high station, that he
could not live in England in a manner becoming his condition,
and was precluded from entering that society to which
he would be so great an ornament.—( Hear, hear.)
The Hon Baronet then read a list of the different towns in the
United Kingdom and in the colonies, which had presented
votes of thanks to Sir H. Pottinger, for his services in China
In nine hours the names of 14,000 working men, in Man-
chester, were affixed to an address expressive of their admiration
of the great good he had conferred on them by re-instating the
trade between China and this country. He was elected a
member of a number of corporate bodies, and the City authori-
ties presented him with the freedom of the City of London and
a geld boy at an entertainment at Guildhall. Lord Aberdeen
had stated, in speeches in relation to the affairs of China, that
he had for three years been in constant communication with
Sir H. Pottinger, and that it was right to declare that his con-
duct in China gave him just claims on his country—that as
difficulties arose he was able to overcome them by
the firmness and energy which he displayed.—(Hear,

motion for an inquiry. He would never shrink from supportiag
a measure founded on a principle such as the Hon. Gentleman
stated. One good result from this would be, that the agricul-
tural interest would feel themselves benefited by it. The Go.
vernment ought to try and relieve themselves, not at the est-
pense of others, but ought to relieve themselves at their own
expense.

Sir JOHN TYRRELL—He thought if ever there was a
subject that had been exhausted in that House, it was the die.
cussion of the agricultural interest.—(Cheers from the Oppo-
sition.) He understood that cheer. It meant that
the landlords had practised a sort of legerdemain upon
the agricultural interest. That was not the case. He had
met all the agricultural delegates; and if there was one point
on which they were agreed, it was that the Government had
betrayed their interests and not their landlords. On the part
of the agriculturists, he utterly denied that they were in favour
of high prices. If they were to have benefits, the manufac-
turing interests, he thought, ought to have them also. He be-
lieved, if the Committee was granted, the agriculturists would
some out of it with clean hands. He was ready to go into the
investigation, but be did not think the appointment of the
Committee necessary.
Dr. BOWRING. was sure that the appointment of the
Committee would be productive of the best effects, as inquiry
was only necessary to show the necessity of removing the evils
complained of.
Strangers were then ordered to withdraw, and the House di-
vided, when there appeared—

Captain PECHELL moved for a copy of a letter from the
Secretary of the Admiralty to the Secretary of the Treasury,
transmitting a- memorial from certain paymasters and pursers of
the Royal Navy, relative to an increase of their half-pay, with
a copy of the reply thereto from the Lords of the Treasury.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER resisted the
motion.
Sir C. NAPIER seconded the motion.

Sir J. GRAHAM said that the whole case of the pursers
had been fully investigated, and specific arrangements had been
made with respect to their pay and half-pay.
(be motion was then put from the Chair, and it was
negatived.

Mr. HUNIE then moved for an address for copy of any in.
structions sent by the Government to the astronomers of the
several observatories at home and abroad in the years 1837-8.
Also, a return of the number of volumes of astronomical ob-
servations that have been made at each Observatory since that
year: and a statement of the number of reports and communi-
cations from them to the Secretary of State for the Colonies, to
the Admiralty, and to any other department at home.
Dr. BO WRING then moved for an account of the finally
audited receipt and expenditure for ordnance services, com-
pared with the sums estimated, for the year ended the 31st day
of March, 1844, with explanatory statements of particulars,
and balance sheet, in the same form as the return laid before
Parliament fn the session of 1844 (No. 386), relating to tho

After some little discussion he asked leave to withdraw the
motion.

After the disposal of the other orders of the day, the Hosts*

Another awful catastrophe, occurring between one and
two o'clock on Sunday morning last, has added a new
testimony to the scandalous neglect of all precautionary
protection against accidents by fire, which it seems to be
a point of honour with all the authorities of the metro-
polis, municipal as well as parochial, to maintain. The
scene of this calamity was in Feuchurch-street—one of
the most densely-crowded districts of the City, where
the accumulation of houses is so excessive that one's only
wonder is how the thriftiness of City-ownership can so
long have tolerated the existence of many spacious and
even magnificent mansions, fitted for the accommodation
of a civic aristocracy which had not yet grown too
proud to live " within the walls," but which in these
altered times occupy, with their marble-floored halls, and
their oaken staircases, and their spacious landings, so
much rcom that might be far more profitably devoted to
the little minikin tenements of modern times, so many
of which could be erected on the ground-plot now occu-
pied by a single one of these substantial fabrics. In
point of fact, in the rear of the house which was do-
stroyed—a building, in many respects, of the character
we have described—various very inferior tenements, of
which the frontage was in Lime-street, had been
bricked out by a substantial,-unbroken back wall, rising
much above those tenements, and shutting out all in-
gress and egress to the houses that have been gutted
by the fire, except from Fenchurch-street, in which was
thgr own frontage. Can any situation be imagined
more hopeless as to the chances it would offer for
the escape of the unfortunate inmates suddenly
aroused by the alarm of fire? The results in this in-
stance were just what might have been anticipated ;rem
such conditions. A wife, having with .

mon danger, and persist'

THE LATE DUEL NEAR GOSPORT.—ROCHESTER,
JUNE 2.—lt having been stated in the public papers that
Lieutenant H. C. M. Hawkey, of the Chatham Division of
the Royal Marines, and his second, has not been heard of
since the late occurrence between him and Mr. Seton, and
that it was generally supposed they had gone to, the Continent,
this is understood to be not the fact, as the parties were seen in this
city last week, having arrived from Gravesend, to which place they
came by steam-boat from London, and proceeded to Starhill, to the
residence of Mrs. Hawkey's mother, Mrs. Colley, where Mrs. Haw-
key is now staying. The circumstances connected with this lament-
able affair have caused a veryconsiderable sensation in the towns of
Chatham, Rochester, &c., as the parties are all well known, Mrs.
Colley, who is the widow of Major Colley, of the Royal Marines,
having resided in these towns for several years.
THE MAYNOOTH GRANT.—The following address,
signed by 300 non-resident members of the Senate of the University
of Cambridge, was on Monday presented to the Chancellor of the
Exchequer and the Hon. C. E. Law, as representatives of the
University in Parliament :—" We, the undersigned, non-resident
members of the Senate of the University of Cambridge, desire to
express our cordial concurrence with the address presented to you
by the resident members of the Senate in support of the measure in-
troduced by Government with respect to the College of Maynooth,
and in earliest disapproval of the agitation against it." These sig-
natures had been prepared in only six days, without any public
meeting. The number of residents who had already signed was 78,
so that the two together amounted to 378 signatures—a fact highly
honourable to the scholars of this distinguished University..
The Duke de Broglie left the French Embassy for
Paris on Saturday last.
TRIAL OF THE MONSTER GUN.—On Friday, and
again on Saturday, the monster gun, recently manufactured at
Messrs. Fawcett, Preston, and Co.'s foundery, in this town, for the
American war-steamer Princeton, was repeatedly tes§ed on the sands
about three miles beyond Waterloo. The gun was conveyed from
the foundery to the place selected for the trial about four o'clock on
Friday morning, when very few of the inhabitants were astir in the
streets. About half-past five it passed through Bootle, almost un-
observed, most of the good people of that locality being in the enjoy-
ment of their morning dreams at the time. It was drawn by nine
horses. On arriving at its temporary destination, it was firmly em-
bedded In the sand, arid the muzzle, which was pointed out to sea,
was slightly elevated in a line above the surface of the water.
The first ball, weighing 2191b5., was then "driven home," the gun
being charged with 301 be. of powder, and the first shot was fired
at ten o'clock, in the presence of about five hundred specta-
tors. The result was most satisfactory. The report was deafening,
and was distinctly heard nine miles off. At the distance of about
three miles, as nearly as could be judged, the ball was seen bounding
on the surface of the water, occasionally dipping and springing up
again, until at length it became wholly lost to view. The second
was the trial shot. Two balls, each weighing 2191b5., were " driven
home," 451bs. of powder being the charge. This shot was equally, satisfactory. The report, of course, was terrific, but the gun with-
stood the shock, and thereby proved that it had been manufactured
on a principle and with a material which render " bursting" almost,
if not altogether, an impossibility. A great number of single shots,
with balls of 2191b5. each, were fired during the afternoon of Friday, and the whole of Saturday, with the like successful result. We un-
derstand the gun will be shortly shipped by a vessel for America,
there to be taken on board the war steamer for Which it was mum-
factured.--Liverpo.:./ Albion.
THE LATE FIRE IN DOVER-STREET.—The remains
of Ann Jones, the nurse of Lord Haetings, were interred on Sunday,
in St. John's-wood burial-ground, the service being performed by the
Rev. Mr. Hastings. On Monday the remains of Mr. Raggett and his
daughter Were interred at Mensal-green Cemetery. Numbers of per-
sons were present on both mournful occasions
FIRST SUICIDE FROM HUNGERFORD SUSPENSION-
BRIDGE.—The first suicide from the above bridge took place yes-
terday morning about three, when a man of apparent respectability
deliberately threw himself from the centre of the bridge into the
river, and although a boat, with persons therein, was passing at the
time, yet their fright was so great that they rowed from, instead of
towards, the deceased, and although boats put off from the shore the
body was not recovered, having, as supposed, been carried away by
the tide, which was then ebbing rapidly.
AN ABORIGINAL.--A native boy, named "Joey," recently made his escape from Ellnder's Island, and being Met with
in the bush by some of the police, was conducted to the chief station
in this city. There he has remained for several days; he is fed laV
the policemen, and seethe quite happy and contented. tie can Speak
English so as to be understood, add runs abont the offices a favourite
with all. " Joey" is about thirteen br rourteen years of age, thick
set, and has a fine open cOlinttlitinee. He is a good specimen of a
race nearly extinct i lit seems highly susceptible of improvement and
instruction, and we hope something will be done for him by
humane.—Hobart Town Courier. the

brought to England by Mr. Forster, of Gateshead, who went out to
South Australia some years ago, as the agent of Mr. G. F. Angas.
The lad is an orphan, and was taken out of the " WA." He Speaks
broken English, can read and write, and is as intelligent as the ordi-
nary run of boys of his am—Ye/tom& Jon,ft!.
Mr. Napier; of the Irish tar (who received the
high compliment dbilVtred by Lord Lyndhurst, in the name of hlm-
tseolnf
ctgairiduthneivjellrsdgite in the II911;11 of Lords), was a law student of the
the law cl^- now University College), at the first opening of
s under Professor Amos. Mr. Whiteside, whose speech
tne State trial of O'Connell and others obtained suck general
admiration, was a fellow student in the same class with Mr. Napier.
ANOTHER DESTRUCTIVE FlRE.—Monday night, be-
tween eleven and twelve, a fire, attended with considerable destruction
of property, broke out in No. 11, Mount-street, Westminster-road,
within a few doors of the National Baths. Mr. Todd, with his wife
and child, and a female servant, were in their beds at the upper part
of the building. There were likewise upon the premises Mr. Brooks,
a lodger, with his wife and mother, and all had a narrow escape.
The brigade, the West of England, and other engines, were soon on
the slot, and an abundant supply of water was furnished by the
Lambeth Water-Works. The result was the destruction of the
building, with the greater part of the furniture, stock-in.trade, &c.,
but no injury was done to surrounding property. The house was in-
sured in the Sun Fire-office.; The police, under Inspector Evans,
behaved admirably.
A company is proposed to be established at Dundee
for prosecuting on a large scale the deep-sea fisheries on the east
coast of Scotland.

SOUTH-LAMBETH NEW FAIR.—Yesterday a new
fair was established in the southern part of the metropolis. A field
of about twenty- acres in extent, and having frontages in the Clapham
and South-Lambeth-roads, is the spot fixed upon as the scene of this
recreation for the humbler classes. The shows are numerous, but
there are few drinking-booths.
Sir Herbert and Lady Compton and family, with
other fashionables, were amongst the numerous passengers who left
London on Sunday last by the Antwerpen steamer, Captain Jackson.
TOBACCO SMUGGLING.—At the Thames Police-
court on Monday, five sailors, named George Ruschite, Lazaro
Moritz, Vincens Staglio, Vincens Lusche, and Micalo Von-
ctissovich, belonging to the Austrian ship Rossitta, from Trieste, now
lying in the London Dock, were fined 100/. each by Mr. Broderip, for
smuggling one hundred and twenty-one pounds of tobacco and cigars.
The men are remarkably tall and powerful, and are Sclavonians, and,
with their huge moustache and military bearing, they formed a
striking contrast to our sailors.
