pressing any judgment upon the two parties
| ask tie House not to sanction this resolution.
If at any time we should be able, by friendly
offices, to contribute to the establishment of
peace, it can be only by presenting ourselves in
the shape Of impartial persons, not tied by opin-
ions either one way or the other, anxious only
to promote that settlement between the two
which may be consistent with the feelings and
interests of both. It is only in that way that
we can render any service, and, in order to re-
main in that position, TO enjoy that character
it is necessary that we should avoid pronouncing
any judgment or opinion. l therefore do not
follow the example of those who have expressed
opinions upon the merits of the two parties l
only entTest the House not to adopt the resolu-
ton of my honorable friend-[ hesr, hear but
to leave to the responsible government the task
ofJudging what can be done, when it can be done
and how it can be done [Cheers.
Mr.. S. Fitzgerald supported the resolution,
insisting that a friendly power was justified in
interfering, IN order to put stop to such san
culinary contest.
The motion for the adjournment of the debate
was then withdrawn.
Mr.. HOPWOOD's SPEECH
Mr.. Hopwood, in whose name notice stood on
the paper to the eff sct that it was his intention to
move " that it is the duty of her Msiesty's gov
of peace, either in concert with the
great powers of Europe or otherwise, as they
may think expedient, to e1deavOr to terminate
the civil war now raging in America" said he
did not feel disposed to take the course suggested
by the honorable member for Sunderland, and
withdrew his motion. Very little had been said
in the course Of the discussion with respect to
the distressed operatives of Lancashire and
Cheshire, of whom I97, 900 were working short
time, while IS, $50 were altogether without en-
ployment. Cries of 90 Divide divide :" from
the benches below the gangway on the minis
terial side He was sorry to see the spirit which
those honorable members who professed to be
the friend Of the operatives seemed inclined to
deal with their case hear, hear, but he
should implore the government, in the name of
justice ana charity, as well as in the interests of
humanity, to take some steps to put an end to
the misery which the unhappy struggle in
America was creating, not only in that country,
bat our own. Hear.
THE MOTION WITHDRAWN.
Mr. Lindsay then asked the permission Of the
House to withdraw his motion, observing that
he would rest satisfied with the statement of the
noble lord ct the head of the government, and
the hope which it held out that he would take the
earliest opportunity to bring about termination
Of the war.
The motion was then Withdrawn.

The Gold oaes.Ien in London.

From the Money article Of the Daily News
Gold is flowing into the country from abroad
faster than ever. For this there are several
causes, the principal being that, as before re-
! marked, the balance Of trade is still largely in
our favor. Why It is in our favor nav almost
be explained by merely glsncing at the position
OF the cotton trade. We are IN the habit Of
taking trOm America cotton to the value Of az
least E3O,OUO OUJ TO t3J, ,0O0,O 900 a year bus
these payments have been almost entirely broughs
to a stop by the extraordinary circumstances OF
the time. The supply lacking from America Is
not made up from any other quarter, and the
consequence Is that the money which usually
goes abroad to buy the material Of industry for
our operatives and Of profit for our merchants,
manufacturers, brokers, and chip owners, is
being stored up in idleness in the Bank OF
England
In so far as the present super
abundant supply Of money arises from reaiiza-
tons Of American securities, we may, Of course,
without Inconvenience, Teinvest It in other Sc
curltles- II we withdraw money from America.
and place it in the bonds Of Turkey or EgyDt,
the money market msy regard ths transaction
with indifference, Tor lt amounts merely 70 an
exchange Of investments. But IL so far as our
abuEdancs arises from the withdrawal Of money
from the cotton business or any other branch of
trade, 1t behOOves US 20 be very careful. what We
DO with it.
We stand at this moment, It is true. with
plenty Of cash in hand, but It does not consist Of
surplus profit, with which We are free to DO as
we like; It is rather capital belonging TO our
ordinary business and certain to be again re-
quired By it. This distinction must be carefully
observed, for toTgetfulness Of It might lead 70
much mischief
Should the country be blessed with a good
harvest, there viii probably be a considerable
surplus Of capital available for investment IN
the new securities which are now being so freely
created, and without trenching on the loose
trade money. On the other hand, should the
harvest be bad one, the large Importation Of
foreign grain that viii be required viii sweep
very considerable portion Of our surplus, and
not only cause the influx Of gold from America
to cease, but probably turn the balance in her
favor. As long as there is any chance, theEs-
fore, of our surplus funds meeting with employ
ment in this way, it is very desirable that we
should not entangle ourselves with any extern
siVe commitments.

GOODS FROM EUROPE.-Tuesday evening VIC
had an interview with a gentleman lately from
Europe, having run the blockade at a Southern
port quite recently. He had with him a new
gun, manufactured in birmingham, which aD-
pears to us to be far superior for war purposes 70
any in use. It has not particle of wool in its
construction. The barrel is Of steel AID the
stock of iron It Is smaller, lighter, and more
convenient than the Enfield and IS said TO have
a greater range with equally destructive power.
Il is rihsd and has bayOnet fixed on 1.-THE
bayonet attachment being superior to any now
in use. 1t can't be knocked off by sn opposing
enemy as the bsyOnet on the common musket
and Enfield rife can. The gentleman who has
this gun says it can be furnished cheaper than
the Enfield rife.
He also showed rs samples of army shoes,
oyereoats and blankets, which can BE- furnished
at very low prices in England. He further ex-
planned to Us that the difficulties Of getting
goods through the blockade are not half so gress
as is commonly suPPosed.-AHanta COHtedsTaey,

A Nun Murders his sisfer and is Hung by
n Mob.


From the ST. Louis Republican, July %
few days ago mention was made in the Re
publican of the killing Of Miss Emily Hall,
young lady of Uaion, Franklin country, by her
brother, Legrand Hall, who shot her with mus
ket The following facts, which we learned
yesterday from gentleman acquainted with the
circumstances show that the murder was one Of
the most cruel and cold-blooded of any that has
ever taken place. 1t appears that the murderer
has for years been regarded as a desperate char
acter A few years ago he was convicted of the
murder of Andrew Bullock, and sentenced to
the penitentiary. Shortly after he was pardon
ed out by Gov. Stewart at the request of cir
cult Judge. His father recently made his will,
and gave $500 more to his two other children
than to LegTaDd. The latter took offense at this,
and determined TO have revenge. he endeavor-
ed to make an arrangement with an old negro to
kill the whole family, on the 4th of July, but
the negro declined. Mr.. Hall, the father,
was or his death-bed on the night Of the mur-
der and his children, including Lsgrand, were
present
Late in the evening Legrand went ont Of the
death chamber, and soon after called his sister
Emily to Join him. The sister had no sooner
stepped outside the room than she was shot dead
bv her brother, who then fled. The citizens oi
the vicinity soon after turned out and succeeded
in capturing him, and he was lOdgedin jail The
day was fixed for the preliminary examination
and he appeared in court provided with law
books and papers to defend himself The exam
ination had progressed but a short time, wher
he was seized by the infuriated citizens. A ropC
was tied about his neck, and he was swung W
on the limb of a tree, and thus speedily and sum
marily executed.
