LONDON, April l0,-ln the commons
to-day there was an excited debate
over a petition praying the dismissal
OF the Tichborne Judges for Partially
and corruption. The petition was dis.
missed on motion OF Dlsraell.
Mr., Sullivan, member for LOulh,
wanted TO know whether the law In
regard 10 bearing arms Ia Ireland
would In any way Interfere with the
American rlilemen VINO are coming 10
Ireland ~ take part ln the lntcrnation-
al rifle match, The chlci secretary for
Ireland replied that Nil classes would
heartily welcome the American team
this summer The gentlemen from
the United States who were 10 take
part IN the competition were un.
doubtedly law-abidlng citizens. There
was no reason 10 suppose that they
would break the law, or be any more
likely 10 render themselves liable TO
arrest than Scotchmen or Engllshmen.
Mr.. Sullivan lnslsted on q positive M
surance, no that there might be no mp
prehenslon. Thechlef secretary replied
that there would be no interference
with the visitors, because II was well
understood that they had no intention
Of breaking the laws. But II neces-
sary special arrangement would be
made to secure their entire freedom Of
movement and exemption from formal
operations OF the law.
Captain Ballie Cochrane moved that,
In the opinion Of the house, the inter
national code conference, to meet AT
st. Petersburg, affords favorable OPP
portunity for England to withdraw
her agreement 10 the declaration OF
Paris In 1856.
Mr.. Bourke, under secretary Of state
for foreign affairs, spoke against the
motion. He declared England could
not honorably Withdraw from that dec
nratiOn without the consent Of the
other parties who signed II. Her re.
linquishment of the right to seize an
enenly's goods on neutral vessel was
doubtless great concession, but Eng
land was the gamer by the abolition OF
privateering aud in other respects. He
thought the revival of this question
tended to nogood results. On the con-
trary, it was likely to raise other grave
issues, and, If persisted in, would rem
der England liable to the charge Of
breach of faith. The motion was re-
jected by vote Of 36 ayes to 26l noes.
BERLIN, April l6.-ln the upper
house of the Prussian diet to-day, the
bill withdrawing the state grants from
the Roman Catholic clergy WAS under
debate. Bismarck made speech, In
which he declared that since the vati-
can council, Catholic bishops were
merely the pope's projects. He said he
was not an enemy to the Catholic
church. He warred only against pa
pacy, which had adopted the principle
of determination of heretics, and
which was in enmity with the gospel
as well as with the Prussian state.
