GREAT BRI1AIx.-On The 10Th mat. Lord
Lyndhurst, IN the House Of Lords, asked
whether any communication had passed BE-
tween the British and French governments
respecting certain insulting paragraphs which
had lately appeared in the M,aiteur. He con-
sidered that the F. ench government by an
thorizing the publication of the insults. had
taken the responsibility upon themselves.
| TIE Earl of Granville said that a note had
been received from Count Walenski in which
explanations We're given for the publication of
the address, and in which the regret of the
Emperor was expressed at the ap pearance Of
ANYTHING offensive to the English nation.
A vote of thanks to the army in India was
! agreed to, after some objection being made
to including Lord Charming, the Governor
nor-Geueral, in the vote.
In the House of Commons vote of thanks
to the army in India was also carried after
the same objection being made as was made
in the upper House.
| Lord Palmer ton moved for leave to bring
ia bill to amend the law relating to conspi-
racy to murder-by making it felony. He said
it (the petition) was made in consequence Of
the recent attempt on the life OF the Empe-
ror. That attempt was the result of con-
spiracy, formed in England, and the conse-
quence was that foreign nations had formed
the opinion that Parliament ought to take
some steps to remove, upon mere suspicion,
all aliens from Great Britain. The govern
ment had no intention to propose any such
measures, although, under the circumstances,
! they all were driven to consider the present
state of the law in regard to conspiracy. He
explained the appearance of the offensive adj
| dresses in the .MOnIeur and the Emperor's
regret for the same, and concluded by point
| ing out the necessity tor amendment on gen.
eral grounds.
Several speeches were made against the
| proposed measure, including very sarcastic
| one by Mr.. Roebuck, when the debate was
adjourned.
The London Morning Post says that one
of the principals in the late attempt on Ma
poleon's life is an Englishman named Thomas
Allen, an ex-member Of the Stock Exchange
A dispatch from the French Minister of
! Foreign Affairs to the Ambassador of France
| in London respecting the refugees is couched
| in moderate language. After referring to
! various designs which have been concocted
in London, and the facilities afforded for fur
Their guilty enterprises, the dispatch concludes
as follows THE Government OF Her Britain
ic Majesty, can assist US in averting danger
Oh
| no state can refuse to a neighboring state
and which we are authorized in expecting
from an ally Full of confidence, moreover
in the exalted reason of the English Cabinet,
We abstain from all indication as regards
measures which it may be suitable to take to
satisfy this wish. We rely in this matter en-
tirely on the English Cabinet for Che care of
approaching decisions which they will Judge
most Improper to lead to this end, and We
congratulate ourselves in the firm persuasion
tia. we shall rot have appealed in vain to
their conscience and loyalty"
