PARLIAMENTARY SUMMARY.
The House OF Lotds resumed lis slttInes on
Thursday April Iltb. The Earl of Aberdeen put
some questions to Lord Melbourne respecting the
state OF affairs in the East Indies and Central ASIA,
aud the alleged Interference Of Russian agents in
that quarter. lie wished To know whether explana-
tons had been demanded from, aud gwen by. the
Russian government; and If so, whether he papers
would be produced.
Lord Melbourne said explanations lad been CIV
en-, which were perfectly satisfactory. The papers
would be laid on The table with the least aVoldablc
delay.
['fhe London papers affirm that Notwithstanding
the disayowals Of the Russian goterunleni, It's IN
uianes AT the courts of Cabool and Persia have been
proved beyond question and they quote from the
dispatches OF SIR Alexander Buns the names aud
even the reIv oyeriutes and promises of lis agents.
So lar us we can discover, however, there really was
nothing IN ihrir proceedings of winch England had
any iight 10 complain. AID WIS promised Dost Ma
holneI against Ruujeet Slhgh. II the latter should
commence hosulIlcs upon Cabool, o. any pant OF
Afphanisian bul as RnuJeet Singh aud Dosl Ma
holncd are both independent princes. We do not sce
what greater harm there Is Ia RnSsia's taking pant in
their quarrcls than IN l%tngIand's doing The yeiy same
thing
Tho House Of Commons recommended business
ON Monday, the slh. Lord John Russell gave the
foim of his motion on The government OF Ireland as
follows -
= Tina it is The opinion Of this house that il is cx-
pedicnt 10 persevtre IN those principles which have
guided the Executive Government OF Ireland, oIlate
years, aud Which have tended to the eflectnaI admin
lstrttIon Of the laws and the general improvement Of
that part OF the United kngdom,''
On The 9th Mr.. Labouchete moved for and OBJ
tanned leave to bring in a bill providing for the lem
porary government oil the Island OF Jamalca.-As
was done in Lower Canada, II ubalIehcs the House
of Assembly, tur The term Of five years, and estab-
fishes a Council by which ile government shall be
administered, viii the aid of llIee spccial commlS-
sioners. Mr.. Labouchcre went at lenetl into the
causes which have made this measure necessary,
detailing the various proceedings OF the Assembly.
&r. &c. The bill was TO have its second reading
on the l9tlI.
In answer 10 question. Lord Palmeiston said
that he had sen, 10 Mr.. Fox, at Washireton, the
draft of a convention toi the diusttent of The houn-
Diary question, by the appointment Of a JOINT commits
sion TO define tie boundary aud thu when the an
sNer of the T. 5. Govern, ant should be received
the papers would be LAID on the table.
On the l0jh ihcre was no quorum.
On the nth nothing of interest Was done.
On l2th, in the House for Lords, papers relating to
the affairs of Jamaica were moved Tor, and ordered.
In the House Of Commons Sir Robett Peel
brought forward an ame@dhent to Lord John Rus
sells motion ON the government Of Ireland. 1t WAS
10 the effect that the appointment oi a committee of
inquiry by The House Of Lords did not Justify min
listers in calling upon the House FOR a declaration of
opinion-and that 1t was not flung for the House OF
Commons to call IN question the right Of the other
house TO inquire into the state of lrelduG.
Mr.. Duncombe gave notice Of an amendment,
which he should offer # Lord John Russelts motion
pleyaiIrd-to the effect that it was c~xredient to
make further reforms IN Parliament.
Lord John Russell announced his intention Emo
wing to expunge from The police bill the clauses ex-
tending the metropolitan police to the city OF Lon
don.
[Thrse were the clauses against which the Com
mon Council demonstrated in Their address to the
Queen, when they got such an ungrlcious answer
MONDAY APRIL l5.--Ihe House and all its gal
,5.s were crowded at an elrly hour, and at SIX
o'clock Loid John %Ssscll commenced speaking in
support OF his motto on the goyerna@cnt OF .sa'a"d-
HIS speech is said To have been Que Of The ablest
his Lordship ever made and the ministerial and
whig papers speak OF II as triumphant.
Sin Robert Peel replied, in supporting his amend
ment. lie mainly relied ON the points assumed in
the amendment, and the impoliey Of adopting any
measure that might bring on a collision between the
houses touching only incidentally on the real qnes-
ton Of Lord Normanby's government in Ireland.
The debate was continued through tie week, aud
was not completed on the 16th, winch IS the date Of
our latest London paper. No doubt was entertained
as to the result, the Irish members and most OF the
liberals going en- masSe in support ofthe ministry.
The other proceedings III either house were OF
little interest, as well as we cln Judge from the sum
mary IN the Liverpool papefs-our London files, an
fortunately, being very imperfect.
