tradition. The discussion grows out oi
the Lawrence case.
The Pail Mall Gdsette's Berlin special
has the following details in the matter Of
Bishop Of Paderborn: The Bishops un.
expected departure from Holland was oc-
casioned by the demand from the Prus-
sian government 10 the Dutch govern
ment for either his extradition or expul-
sion. The demand was promptly acted
upon. The Dutch ministers OF justice
gave the necessary orders at once to the
State Procurater who called upon the
Bishop, without stating any reasons, to
quit the kingdom within fortnight,
and threatening extradition il he failed
to comply. The Bishop left on Saturday
and proceeded to England, where he has
already formally declared that he intends
to continue to conduct the administration
OF his diocese.

Commons last night Mr.. Cameron moved
that committee be appointed to inquire
into the prolonged imprisonment and i'll
treatment Of the crew OF the British ship
Talisman by the Peruvian Government.
Mr.. Bourke, Under Foreign Secretary,
said that the Government had telegraphed
to Lima that the remaining prisoners,

ately tried or England would demand
their release. As to the allegations OF ill
treatment, the Government had forward
ed instructions to the English represent
atiye in Peru TO inquire into the matter,
and il he reported that they were correct,
the Government would consult the law
officers as to the adviSability OF demand
ing compensation.
Sir Henry James urged that the Pc
ruyian government had had full oppor-
tunity to try the prisoners. The time had
now come to demand their release. He
asked the Government to give assurance
that il the prisoners remained untricd a
demand for their release would be forci-
bly, supported.
Mr.. Ashley suggested that gunboat be
sent 10 Callao.

SENATOR IENRY's SpEECHEs on THE
TREASURY DEPARTMENT HOUSEKEEPING.
We notice that tho Senate Committee
on Finance at Washington have sent
Senator Davis speeches (mndc in January
last) TO the Treasury Department, and
asked an explanation of the following
points: In 1871, during Senator Bout
wells administration, wholesale changes
were made in the tables, showing the
public debt at the close OF each fiscal
year, thirty or forty reports having been
already made. The sum Of these alter
atoms amounts in the aggregate to nm
increase in the public debt OF over S2l7,-
100000. The changes referred to date
back to 1886. AT that time the public
debt was at its minimum. Each year
after that the Register OF the Treasury
made annual statements oil the pablic
debt, and these were sent to Congress un-
changed, each report agreeing as to the
debt of former years with the reports that
had preceded, until 1870, the year after
Mr.. Boutwell, took the portfolio, when
many changes were made in these often
published tables. For instance, n state
meut for the debt for 1868 having once
been made up and sent to Congress all
subsequent reports for that year ought to
agree with it. The finance reports from
1868 to 1870 did thus agree, but between
the publication Of the reports for 1870
aud 1871 an increase was made in this
item for 1858 by which it appears to have
been increased nearly S2l,OOO,OOO. To
make this statement exact il will
appear by the Registers report that
the amount which had been stated
a' the public debt on the lat of
July, 1868, was $l,OO0,OOO,OOO, and
every SUBSEQUENT year till 1871, when II
vi" reported by the Register as being
Sl,l2O,OOO,000. 1t has been repeated Mt
The last figure every year since. The
only conclusion that can be arrived At
from these obvious discrepancies is that
Tue Register Of the Treasury changed tho
4sate' in the report OF 1871, and Senator
DaT'' and the Senate committee want to
KNOW who did il and what II was done
