GREAT BRITAIN.-In the House OF CON-
mons July l6, Mr.. Roebuek moved the fol-
lowing resolutions That the war with Per-
STA was declared, prosecuted, and conducted,
without such transactions being commune
Gated TO Parliament, while aImaments were
equipped without sanction of vote OF the
House; that it is the opinion of fhe House
that such conduct tends to weaken Its Just
authority, and to dispense with its control
over the finances of the country, and renders
it requisite for the House to express its strong
reprobation of such a course of proceeding.
He supported his motion in a speech OF much
bitterness and accused Palmerston OF having,
by denuding India of troops for the Persian
war, brought about the present state OF affairs
in India.
A warm debate ensued, in which Mr.. Roe
buck found many supporters, but who de-
clined to vote for the resolutions.
Palmerston asserted the constitutional right
of the crown to make war or peace at pleas
ure, although he admitted it to be the duty of
government to acquaint Parliament at the
earliest opportunity of having done SO.
After censuling Roebuck and his motives,
he reviewed the course of negotiations with
Persia, claiming credit rather than censure
for concessions his government had made TO
facilitate the restoration of peace, and then
passed on to deny that there was any connec-
ton between the Persian war and Indian
mutiny, while he predicted that the triumph
of British arms and policy over Persian ag-
erosion and Russian instigaton, would ma
terially enhance British influence throughout
all Asia.
T. IL
ally, or otherwise, there were any grounds
for the success Of the resolutions, OF which 1t
would be fatal mistake on the part OF the
House.
The resolutions were lost by vote of IS to
352.
On Friday, in the House of Lords, Lord
Brougham brought forward his motion Tor an
address to the Queen to discountenance all
measures tending to promote the slave trade
in a powerful speech. He pointed out seri-
GUS consequences likely to ensue from the
importation of free Africans into the French
colonies. and was sure 1t was only necessary
to call the attention of the French govern
ment to the subject, to induce them to aban-
don the policy.
Lord Clarendon endorsed Lord Brougham's
sentiments fully, saying that if it turned out
that the slave trade was revived, the govern.
ment would not hesitate to use the power
vested IN it to stop it.
The address was agreed to.
The shipping Of the Atlantic Telegraph Ca
Bile on the Asamemnon was to be finished the
day the Europa sailed. The Niagara had
over thousand miles on board, and her por-
ton would be finished this week. The con-
tinued test OF the coil has been very satisfac-
tory, and at Cork, whence the vessels will sail
about the first of August, experiments will
be made through the whole length OF the ca
ble assurances had been effected on the
safe laying of the cable at rates ranging from
ten per cent upward, but many stockholders
were sanguine enough to prefer running their
own risks.
Prince Napoleon visited and inspected the
Niagara on the seventeenth inst. In return,
Capt. Hudson was entertained on the impe-
rial yacht.
A deputation from the Anti Slavery Socl-
ETY. presented a memorial to Lord Palmerston
on the 10th ult., condemning the proposed
scheme to obtain negro laborers from Africa
for the West Indies. He stated that the
government were alive to the danger of the
scheme, and would take care that nothing
was done which tended to recuscitate the
slave trade.
The British government intend sending to
India q steam squadron, and considerable
force of artillery by the most rapid convey
ance at hand, in addition to the troops already
mentioned. The force which had been APP
propriated for the Chinese operations, had all
been intercepted and ordered for service in
India. The force will be compensated for in
China, by battalion of marines to be dis
patched to Hong Kong without delay.
Tho Iondon Times in artinla on Marny'e
privateering letter, calls it bold and com
prehensive proposal, and expresses regret that
England did not at once close with the sugges.
ton therein made. It says that before a de-
cision could be formed, the Cabinet at Wash.
ington became alarmed at the possibility that
its offer would be accepted. Mr. Buchanan
and General Cass have intimated their disin-
clination to follow up the discussion nor is
there any reason to hope that so desirable an
object will soon become attainable.
FRANcE.-The poet Beranger is dead.
The French police, according to letter in
the "Nord' of Brussels, continue to DISPLAY
greatest activity in their researches after the
the Italians suspected of having taken part in
the late conspiracy. About thirty have been
arrested at Marselles and on the frontiers.
Complete returns of supplementary cleo
tons in France, show the return of eleven
opposition deputies in all.
The harvest prospects throughout France
are most cheering. In some places the reap
ing is over.
The Monitew publishes the returns of the
indirect revenue of France for the first six
months of the present year, showing an in
crease of no less than 26, 2B5, 900 francs over
the corresponding period of last year.
SPAIN.-The Spanish semi official journal
says :-"Our government occupies itself at
the moment with the important Mexican
question, and proofs will soon be seen that
Spain is enduring only until she is wounded
in her national honor. To this end it is said
two war steamers are about to sail from Cadiz
for Havana. taking out instructions for Con-
cha from Madrid the government also con-
veying more troops and materials of war for
the expedition against Mexico, which Spain
will inevitably undertake, unless she receives
full satisfaction from that Republic.
In consequence of numerous arrests, the
Madrid prisons are SO full that the breaking
out of maladles is apprehenaed.
ITALY.-Tranq utility prevails 1t is assert
ed that the recent movement was planned in
London, and therefore the Italian conrt,
backed by Austria and France, is about to
protest against the asylum which England
affords to troublesome refugees. One report
states that the Tuscan court is at the head Of
the movement, and another intimstes that
Austria was trying to induce the Prussan
cabinet to join in the movement, by address.
ing note to the English government, pray,
ing it to exercise surveillance over refugees
London Money Market-The money mark et
is slightly easier, and rates at the Bank have
