AFFAIRS 10 ENGLAND assume serious APP
pearance Of complication over the Irish
Church Bill. 1t is evident that the House of
Lords is determined to reject it, notwi,h-
standing the large majority by which II was
passed in the Commons. In response to a
Conservative delegation who called upon
him, yesterday. Lord Derby said he spoke
as a unit in the House of Lords, notwith-
standing the influence or action Of others.
While many friends of the Irish church wish
to amend, not to reject the bill for its discs
adjustment, he was persuaded its rejection
was the only course,
The London Times predicts, il this policy
is carried OFT, that the result will be that the
House of Lords, will be Obliged to accept the
same bill at later period, with sense OF
humiliation The bill must pass. The nation
by the voice of the House Of Commons, has
so pronounced, and cannot recede. The
Pail Mall Gazette declares that to rule, in
the sense of deciding what the nation shall
or shall not decide upon, is beyond the com.
petence of Lords Or any other governing
body. 1t is understood that if the bill fails
in the Lords, the Ministry will have lht
Queen to create a large number of new Lib
eral peers. who will be enough to carry il
through

The RECEIPTS of the National Treasury,
Tuesday, were S;l,ol6,oOo., in gold, for Gus
toms, and SS3s, 99s., in currency, for inter
nal revenue. 1t was the estimate of the De-
partment that the amount realized from In
ternal Revenue, for the current fiscal year,
lending June 800 would be 100000 900.
But, in fact, the amount already received is
over three millions in excess of that sum,
and there still remain twenty-five days ol
the heaviest collections of the year.
This is a very satisfactory exhibit, anf
very encouraging to Secretary Boutwell, A
surplus of receipts over estimates will vastly
aid him in his policy Of retrenchment ant
reduction OF u debt. And it should b.
borne in mind, no, that this surplus Of in
iernal revenue collection is in a considerable
degree due to the increased efficiency an,
honesty of the new officials appointed unde
