PARLIAMENT AND THE QUEEN.-In the British
mousse or commons last night Mr.. Dilwyn (liber-
aD moved that in the opinion OF the house it
was necessary that the limits of prerogative
should be more strictly observed, so as to pre-
vent minister's under cover of the supposed
personal interposition of the sovereign, from
withdrawing from the cognizance of the house
matters which are properly within the scope of
It's powers. Mr.. Dlllwyn, in his speech, pointed
out as examples OF such matters, the anneXa-
ton OF the Transvaal, the dispatch of the In
dian troops to Malta, and the sending of the
fleet to the Dardanelles. Mr.. Gladstone called
attention to the fact that the house had already
approved several acts of the government which
the motion proposed to censure. He regarded
the allegations OF the motion untimely and not
supported by the fact. A cable dispatch this
morning says:-The debate was adjourned for
one week. The motion is certain to be over
Whelm1ngly rejected. Much confusion was
caused by the motion, which in It's original
form implied that the queen had acted uncon-
stitutionally, being at the last moment re-
modelled into simple vote Of censure OF the
ministers. The original motion would have
met with even less support than the present

of his pocket. lie slipped his hand
to his time. piece, and was surprised to
find that he came in contact with the
hand Of a well-dressed and pretty
young lady who was sitting by his
side. lie looked around at her, and
was nonplusei at seeing two little
dainty hands encased in beautifully
fitting gloves, which we're crossed on
her lap. He saw through the trick at
once. This female was a pickpOcket,
and the hands crossed upon her lap
were false. The gentleman kept quiet
until the vehicle had gotten well into
town, when he told the female she
had better get out with him. She
readily assented, the wagon was stop
ped and the two alighted. Upon
reaching the sidewalk he told her that
he intended to call a policeman and
have her taken to the station house.
She begged piieously for mercy, and
by her seductive ways soon succeeded
in getting the gentleman to let her go
