HOUSE OF COMMONS.—Last Night.

BUSINESS OF THE HOUSE.

. Sir R. PEEL, on moving that the orders of the day be
read, said he would take that opportunity of inform-
ing the house what business it was the intention of her
Majesty's servants to proceed with during the present
session (hear.) And he was sorry to say that the great
mass of public business in arrear would prevent many
bills from being proceeded with during the present ses-
sion (hear). The government, however, intended to pro-
ceed with the Poor-law Bill, the Metropolitan Im-
provements Bill, the Bill for regulating joint-stock
banks, and some others. He had already announced
that it was not intended to proceed with the Registration
of Electors (Ireland) Bill beyond the second read-
ing during the present session. With respect to the
Municipal Corporations (Ireland), which extended to
that country the enactments of the English bill, he was
afraid it would be impracticable to pass it during the
present session. With respect to the Railway Bill, that
was a m,st important measure, but one which he hoped
would not meet with much opposition, and therefore that
would be proceeded with. It was necessary for the gui-
dance of railway companies that the intention of parlia-
ment on the subject should be fully made known. The
Savings Banks Bill would be proceeded with. He could
not state what his intentions were with regard to the
County Courts Bill until that day week. Toe Ecclesias-
tical Courts EMI would not be proceeded with this session
(hear). There were certain other bills which he hoped
to proceed with, but could not at present mention a defi-
nite time. There was one bill not before the house rela-
ting to controverted elections petitions, which would be
introduced in a few days, and which he hoped would pass
this session.
In answer to a question by Mr. MACAULEY,

Sir J. GRAHAM said, it was intended to proceed with
the Law of Settlement Bill.
In reply to Mr. FERRAND, _ _

Sir R. PEEL said, the Pooi-law Bill would be proceeded
with on Thursday or Friday next, and the Railway Bill
would take precedence on Monday.

• ..count STR.ANovonn rose and said he was anxious,
before the order of the day was read, to call their lord-
ships attention to a bill which stood that night for the
third reading—he meant the Manchester Bonding Bid. It
had gone through all the previous stages sub silentio, and
awaited only the third reading. No explanation whatever
had been given of it to their lordships, nor did h' know
who had what was designated the charge of it. For his
own part, he was ignorant of its contents or its provisions,
and should be glad to have a print of it. Had the bill the
sanction of the government ?

The Earl of M INTO rose to speak to order. He thought
it was a great wa,td of time to be going into a discussion
so irregularly. It would be time enough for the noble
viscount to subm t a motion on the subject when the third
reading of the bill was proposed. (Hear )
After a short discussion, in which the Earl of Shaftes-
bury, Lord'Monteagle, and the Earl of Wilton took part,
the subject wes dropped.
After some discussion the bill to prevent the union of
the sees of St. Asaph and Bangor went through com-
mittee, and was reported without amendment.
The Brothels Suppression Bill led to a repetition of the
attack formerly made by the Earl of Fitzhardinge against
the Dean and Chapter of Westminster, and to an able
reply from the Bishop of Gloucester; after which the bill
went through committee, and was reported without any
amendment.
Some bills on the table were then forwarded a stage, and
their lordships adjourned.

DIMENSIONS

Of 14 graduating sizes, suitable for all purposes, from
30s. to £l4 each ; for additional inner chamber, doubling
the thickness, and trebling the resisting power 50 per
cent. more each size.

The Chambers within Milners' Boxes and Safes con-
tain the best Chemical non-conductor of heat, and Tubes
imbedded therein filled with alkaline fluid, which escapes
into the non-conductor whenever Fire reaches the Box
and heats it to the boiling point, steaming the chambers
and contents, neutralizing in the latent heat of the steam
1000 degrees of, heat, keeping down the temperature, and
preventing ignition.
From, every pint of fluid in the Chamber is slowly dis-
charged into and condensed in the contents of the. Box
upwards of 200 Gallons of Steam, of more certain avail
in saving the Papers than tons of water thrown into a
burning building with the same object.
The advantage of this principle, embracing " the exclu-
sive use of any material evolving moisture on the applica-
tion of heat," over every other description of Box or Safe,
is the advantage that Waterhas over every thing else in
quenching Fire.
An Iron Safe of one inch in solid thickness exposed to
red heat will char papers within it in fifteen minutes, and
remain a,burning prison for them for hours afterwards.
Milner's Fire-resisting Principle has been investigated,
tested in Red Heat from One to Twelve Hours, in various
thickness,• from 1 to 6 inches, and approved by the au-
thorities and scientific and practical nien, in the leading
towns of the three kingdoms.

BONUS.

At the Annual General Court of Proprietors, held on
the 20th June, 1839, bonuses were declared to the assured
in the Fire Department of £l.O per cent. on the premiums
received during the five years previous to the 25th March,
1839, to be paid on all insurances of two, or more, years'
standing; and to the assured in the Life Department, on
all policies for the whole duration of Life, for four, or
more years' standing, on the 25th March, 1839, of very
nearly 26 per cent. on the amount of the premiums re-
ceived thereon, improved at compound interest, to be
added to the sum assured by such policies when they
become claims, or an equivalent reduction to be made in
the annual premiums upon them, at the option of the
parties entitled thereto.

HOUSE OF LORDS.—TonsDAy.

The Earl of RADNOR brought under the consideration
of their lordships the circumstances attending the recent
opening of letters at the Post-office, a proceeding which
be strongly condemned, and urged upon the house the ne-
cessity for an inquiry, after what had taken place the pre-
vious evening in the House of Commons. The noble earl
concluded by moving for a copy of the warrant of the Se-
cretary of State under which the letters bad been thus
opened.
The Duke of WELLINGTON said the law was an old
one under which the proceeding took place, and the
power which it gave was entirely exercised on the autho-
rity of the Secretary of State for the Home Department,
who did not think it advisable to state the grounds upon
which he thought it necessary to act.
Lord TAN KEB.VILLE referred to a minute signed by Mr.
Fox, in the time of the Lord G. Gordon riots, authorising
the opening of the letters of the foreign ministers.
The Earl of H ADDINGTON said the power was a most
odious one to possess, and if there was not confidence in
the minister to whose discretion the power was entrusted,
that power, however necessary, must cease to exist. He
thought no grounds had been shown for a parliamentary
inquiry.
Lord CAMPBELL said he would have been satisfied bad
any declaration been made on the authority of the govern.
ment that no abuse of this power had actually taken place ;
but all their lordships could obtain was a declaration from
the Secretary for the Home Department that he would
not tell them anything about the matter, and a declaration
S.uu. —a tn.., a
Haddington) that they actually knew nothing about it.
The character of the country was compromised by what
had taken place, and therefore inquiry was, in his opinion,
necessary.
Lord DENatAN thought it imperative on parliament to
inquire into the nature of a power which was so odious in
its exercise that the people would no longer endure its ex-
istence without modification.

The Earl of RADNQR said he would, on a future occa-
sion, bring the motion forward in another shape.
Several bills on the table were then forwarded a stage,
and their lordships adjourned.

lIOUSE OF COMMONS.-MONDAY.

Mr. DUNCOMBE agdn br.tught under conideration the
recent opening of let ers at the Post-office, and insisted
that it was but the continuation of a practice which had
been in active operation during the last two years. He
charged the Post-office awhorities with keeping a letter-
opening ma'hinery, with the connivance of the govern-
nient, for political purposes. He moved that a petition
which he presented upon the subject might be referred to
a select committee, with a view that an inquiry should be
instituted into the system._

Dr. BOWetING seconded the motion.
Sir J. GRAHAM commented on the want of courtesy
betrayeglby the hon. member, in not having made him
previously acquaiot.,d with the circumstances of the case.
If be had exceeded his power he was open to prosecution ;
but denying that he had done aught that was in thesiigh.:.
est degree questionable, he objected to the proPniclon of
the hon. member.
Mr. MACAULek contended that the power was Ote
which should no longer be suffered to exists without very
great modification.
Captain BERNAL said, a rumour was afloat that Irish
correspondence was habitually violated.
Sir ROBERT PEEL defended the course pursued by Sir
James Graham, Rho had acted on a law passed in the
reign of Queen Anne, and which bad been properly re-
enacted by the late government, and although his right
hon. friend had felt it his duty to refuse all explanation,
yet he had in no way exceeded the practice under Mr.
Fox and Lord Granville.

Sir G. GREY said the gravamen of the charge was that
the exercise of the power took place at the instance of a
foreign government for its own purposes, and that by thus
exercising it, the right hon. gentleman had compromised
the faith and honour of this country.
The motion was negatived by a majority of 206 to 762.
On the motion for going into committee on the Bank
Chatter Bill, several suggestions were made by Aldertoan
Thompson, Mr. Williams, and Mr. Masterman, after
which
Mr. MUNTZ moved that the bill should be committed
that day six months; an amendment which was seconded
by Mr. WALLACE, and opposed by Sir R. PEEL.
The amendment was negatived by a majority of 205 to
18.
The house then went into committee on the clauses of
the bill.

IN THE FIRE DEPARTMENT,
Insurances are effected at rates of premium commensu-
rate with the risk, and Policies may be transferred to this
Office without extra charge.
Special Risks reasonably rated.
IN THE LIFE DEPARTMENT,
The additions made to the Life Policies, granted by this
Corporation for the last Seven years, vary from Forty-one
to Sixty-five per Cent. on the Premiums paid, and average
Fourteen per Cent on the Sums Asgured—a result, it is
believed, more favourable to: the Assured than any other

of Premium charged by this Corporation are taken into
consideration.

-PERRYIAN. INK.

6d., is., and 2s. per Bottle.
This Ink is most suitable for all kinds of Metallic Pens,
and exceedingly good for pens made from quills. It is
also suitable for the copying machine. The ordinary inks
do not flow freely down Metallic Pens, and from their
corrosive nature are very injurious to them ; the Perryian
Ink possesses every requisite good quality, has a flowing
property peculiar to itself, and does not Corrode Pens as
other inks. Writing performed with this ink in a short
time becomes of a deep raven black, and never turns
brown in any climate.
Also in Powders. at 6d. and is. each, the latter sufficient
to make a wine bottle full of ink. _
