ing majority against the government of SO.
TIE act was preceded by an extended de-
bate, in which Lord Lindhurst and other
eminent peers asserted the constitutional
rights of the House of Lords to reject bill
although it was a money bill. Lord Pal
merston stated in the Commons that he
would move for committee to examine
precedeDts for the course pursued by the
Lords, but disclaimed desire to place the
two Houses Of Parliament in hostility. It

the decision of the House of Lords and re-
turn the tax.

rent at the departure of the Arabia to the

of the Greenland cable deputation to Pal

ciIities than is generally believed exists for
the safe establishment of line between
Greenland and America.
The London Times says it is prevalent
there, that Sicily is lost to the Bourbons.

Sardinia, who he says has taken advantage
of the period previous to the ratification of
the treaty, and sold crown lands, which
