The Reform Bill passed in the House
Of Commons on the 22d by majority
Of 100. II was carried up to the Lords
with more than usual ceremony, Upon
the division the vote stood thus, Ayes
345, Noes 236. MAJORITY in favor of
the Bill 100. Lord JDhn Russell, on
the same day presented the Bill to the
House of Lords, he was attended to the
Bar, by an immense crowd Of Com
mOners. The House wasvery crowded,
and near the Usher ofthe Black Rods
box there were several peeresses and
other ladies. Earl Grey afterwards mov-
ed the first reading of the bill, which was
agreed to wMhout any comment; and his
Lordsbip next, proposed. that it should be
read second time ON Monday se'nnight,
WHICH Was likewise approved. Earl Grey
at tie same time, expressed hope that
the bill might be allowed to 60 into COM
mittee with as little delay as possible.
The second reading of The Bill in the
House of Lords, was appointed on Mon
day, Oct. a. Petitions for its passage
were pouring in from all quarters.-Bell's
Messenger Of the 25th, Sunday says
1.-THE Reform Bill has now passed into
the Lords, where, according to some of
our daily journals. its fate is very doubt
flil; and its very substantial alteration, e.
ven in the possible event Of its success,
very certain. Our own opinion does not
agree with either Of these conclusions.
With regard to lis ultimate success, we
entertain but little doubt but that the Bill
will he carried, perhaps by majority of
forty ar rf0rty-seven, in the House of Peers
and therefore that the Reform may be
codsidcred as passed. Paris all was
calm. The French Chamber of Depu-
ties on the 22d, came to the following
decision 1.-The Chamber, satisfied with
the explanations given by the Ministers,
and confiding in their solicitude for all
which interests the honor and dignity of
France, passes to the order of the day."
Upon division, there appeared in favor
Of passing the order of the day, 22l a
gainst it, 1876; majority in favor of Min
isters, IS. NJ. Perrer, the French Prime
Minister, alluded in the course Of his
speech, to an intended disarmament
throughout Europe. The Constitution
mel asserts upon the authority Of private
letters from Berlin that the loss Of the
Russians in the late capture of Warsaw,
amounted to 10000 men, including sew
en- Generals. The conferences respect
ing the boandaries Of Greece, and the
choice of prince for that country, are
resumed. The Government Of Count
Capo d'Istrias gives general dissatisfac-
ton, and will lead, as it has already done
in particular instances, to much blood
shed and confusion. A bloody civil war
is said to be raging in Turkey; but the
particulars are confused. Paskcwitsch
was wounded at the battle Of Warsaw,
and the Russians acknowledge loss of
from 1000 to 5000 men. Doubtless the
slaughter was great on both sides.
1t appears, by brief notice of the
disposal of the Polish corps Of General
Gielgud, that the Emperor of Russia
deems it expedient to act with modera-
ton indeed, the case of Poland seems
by no means desperate. 1t is reported,
that by the solicitation of France and
England. the Russian Cabinet has
pledged itself that the nationality of
Poland shall be respected--a constitu-
ton is to he given to that country. a
general amnesty is to he granted, and
all except the leaders Of the revolution,
are to be pardoned, 1t appears that both
Austria and Prussia have refused to re-
ceive the ENJOYS who have been sent
by King Leopold to announce his ac-
cessiOn to the throne, upon the ground
oftbe Belgian question not being defn-
itively settled.
