PAI.YEKIIFON announced that it was the intention of the government to propose a morning sitting for Monday for the purpose of taking supply, the committee of and it was proposed to go on again with the committee of supply in the evening. The hon. member would therefore have an opportunity on Moods*, eveoieg of making the statement ho wished to make unless age same misfortune should attend him then as upon the other occasions he had mentioned. (A laugh.) He hoped that hon. gentlemen who had notices of motion preliminary to going into supply would have the kindness not to bring them forward on Monday morning, but to reserve them for the evening sitting, in which case they would be able to make some Progrum.  qurtioo  discussion  Mr. FORSTER said, otesideriog the nature of the late intelligence from the States, and the great disasters which appeared to have involved the North, he felt that if we wished the present war to be prosecuted in a vigorous manner, we could not attain our end in a more ingenious way than by an offer of mediation such as that esseitted by this motion. But he could well that there were many boa. gentlemen who might my that after all this war was so !suicide), so foolish, and so wicked, that we must simply consider bow we could put • stop to it, and that it must end. (Hear, hear.) It was all very well to say, " Hear, hear," but each was not the opinion of the vast meicirity of the twenty million men of the Northern States of America. He certainly could not but express his admiration of the courage and endurance displayed by the men of the South in the defence of their homes—(hear. hear)—but if we wished to work up the North to the same pitch of frenzy as the South, let us offer them foreign interference, and we might be sure we should do so. On the other hand, if we let them alone it was not , improbable the North _would soon find out that they had . undertaken  •task too hard for them. (Hear.) No lea; than 300,111 men were now asked for by President Lincoln, but he could not help thinking there would be a great difficulty in getting them, because the multitudes of unkind wounded going home were not likely to prove good recruiting sergeants. (Hear, hear.) If, however, we wanted these 300,000 men to be found, all we bad to do was to send out intelligence b the next mail that England, in concert with others, th the North with interference. (Hear, hear.) There wens some gentlemen who went still farther end said it was better we should be at war with America than submit to such a peace as we have. He did not charge that upon his hon. friend (Mr. Lindsay), but he asked, where was thejostification for a war with America? Were we to go to war with a country on account of disasters at home, et on account of what was happening in that country? Such a war would not only be wicked and unjust, but foolish in the greatest degree. They were told the population of lancashire were suffering, and that the house would have to devise means for their relief. They could keep that population in luxury for less than the price which a war with America would cost us. (Hear, hear.) The noble lord who had just spoken alluded to the interference which in modern times took place in France. Any one, however, who had road the history of what occurred is France most admit that the horrors which took place there were only rendered more horrible by that interference. Such, be felt mewed, would be the result of any interference in the American civil war. This was not • common civil war, but it was an entire change of the social system. He was not saying the South or the North were wrong, but be believed that the terrible system of slavery bad teen the cause of the present conflict. If the South were the Waveholders, the North were involved in the traffic, and yet he believed it was generally acknowledged now that Orrery was the real cause of the war. (No, no.) He most fully believed that slavery had been the cause, and that the war would result in putting an end to slavery. (Hear, hear.) He could not say how it would be accomplished, but he maintained the present conflict was a great revolution, which was ending a system which had done much more harm to the whites than to the blacks. At the present time there was great reluctance on the part of Use Nor th to make use of theslarery question, end there was a feeling not to be sneered at that they were loth to turn this civil war into a servile war, but if we interfered they would at once throw the responsibility of a servile war upon us. Three months after OW interference the nevem would be so many sepoys in the Northern fumy. He thanked her Majesty's government for having preserved this country, under the temptation of great provocation, from having any responsibility whatever in this terrible war, and he earnestly hoped they would moth' se in their policy of soninterferenoe. He should certainly vote against the motion before the house. (Hear, bear.) Mr. WHITESIDE thought the house justified in ozonean opinion on this question, difficult as it was, and this  ring a. en this que..
