TURSDAV. The Marqris of Ef.amilten asked whether, having zegard to the peaceable state of the eounty of Pampa, the Government had any intention of withdra.wimg the e etre' police force which had been stationed there consequent ttpon the murder ot'Lordi Leitrim. Mr. Lewther aaid three persons bad been deliberately murdered under circumstances which meat have been a matter of netoriety in the locality. Bute netvvithstanding the offer et a very large mward„. no evklence whatever was forthemning. Under the circumstances, It appeared Whim that the neighbourhood was very justly eharged with the cost of th& police force considered necessary fer. maineaining the security , of the district. In arswer to Mr. OrDennel, Sir Itee H. Beach said he did.not think the last messengers from Cetyyseyo were detained, far less imprisoned. It appeared that they were sent back by Lard Chelmsford with a message to. Cetywayo. As to the manner in while the Basuto insurgents were dealt with, it was a-more humane process to drive them out of their saves by smoke than by starvation. Referring. to Mr. Cowen, Mr. Cross said a, barrister would attend the coroner's inquiry rot-Tooting the baler explosion at Stoneclough, and make a special Deport on the subject. Sit M. H. Beach, in lingerer to Mr. Parnell, said the irregulars and volunteers, in South. Africa had done very good service. He-had not seen statements to the effect that Lonsda/e'e Horse had taken to highway robbery in the neighbourhood of Durban. Mr. I M'lver consented, es the suggestiOn of the Chancellz of the Exchequer, to waive his right to bring forward his motion for a Commission as to. the agricultural used commercial distress on Iltiday, and to move it, instead, as an amendment to Mr. Chaplin's resolution on the 4th of July. The House then went into committee on the Army Regulation and Diecipline Bill. WaDNESDAIf..—The bill of Mr. Delahunty to prohibit the issue in Ireland of bank notes for any SUM less than £2, and that of Sir A. Gordon to amend the Gun License Act to the extent of exempting occupiers of land from the necessity of taking out a gun licence for the purpose of killing hares and rabbits on their own holdings, Were discussed. The former was rejected, and the latter talked out. Teuesnev.—Notices of questions relating to several important matters were given, and ministers were interrogated on subjects so varied that they included the subject of Irish butter and the arrangements for the comfort of the sick and wounded soldiers in South Africa. On the house going into committee, further discussion took , place with regard to flogging in the army, Mr. Otway denounced punishment in that form as degrading and barbarous, and Colonel Stanley said that had he known an attempt would be made to abclish it, he would have resisted the influence to which he yielded on Tuesday night, when 25 lashes were adopted as the maximum number.
