From the Richmond Time.', Tib.
Judge John C. Underwood, of the United
Slates Circuit Court for Virginia, arrived in
Richmond yesterday- afternoon at 1:30
o'clock, hr Ine Frederickfiburg train, land
ing at the Petersburg depot and walking,
thence to the Spollswood ITolel. lie was
escorted from thedepot to (heliofel by Col
lector .Tames, who walked on his right hand,
and the Assistant District Attorney, "who
walked on the other. He was followed by
a large and very black negro man, who bore
his traveling bag and a ponderous law book,
nearly as big as a Webster's dictionary.
Three negroes, soppo?ed to be the African
quota of the grend jury, followed behind,
andarrivtngat the Spottswood corner were
informed by the Clerk- of the Court' that
Judge Underwood would open his court at
3 o'clock precisely. Not being invited to
accompany the Judge into the hotel. they
proceeded up Eighth street. The distin
guished arrival produced no excitement.
A few minutes after three o'clock' the
grand jury came in by twos and threeund
took their seatH, Mr. Bolts taking the 'posi
tion of foreman.
At a quarter past three J udge Underwood
came in and took his seat, and ordered the
calling of the following list of grand jurors :
LIST OP THE OUAND JUROBS BOTTS.
John Minor Bolts, Joseph Segar, Lewis
MoKenzie, J. T. Baldwin, Rozier Dulaney
Beckley, colored, David Lupton, Cornelius
Liggon Harris, colored, John Hawxhurst,
Tlrwnas Davy, T. S. Tennis, Will jaw JSart
lett, George W. Strains, colored, Fields
Cook, tolored, John Oliver, colored, Gil
kttT. Watson, Micheal Umbarger, Jacob
N, Trotk, John W. Gregg, Joseph T. Jan
ney, Jolin Visslcr, II. u. Bond, William
Q. ManselB.
The list being called, all responded ex
cept Lowis McKenzie, William Bartlett,
Fields Cook and J.T. Baldwin.
The Judge ordered that Mr, Botta be
sworn as foreman, and he walssworn, taking
a nuralwr of oaths. The rest were then
called up fours and sworn, negroes and
whiles together. There was nothing re
markable in this ceremony except the
avidityof the negroes to kiss the book,
(they ciilld scarcely be restrained till the
clerk got through repeating .the oaths,)
and the unction with whicll -they smacked
their, yips over the sacred volume when
permitted to get at it.
The grand jurors having been duly
sworn and having resumed their Seats, the
Judge turned in Kyi peat, andrfaclng them,
proceeded to read ltf'a liarshandirather in
distinct voice, fumbling the -sheets of his
manuscript nervously lite whUe. the fol-
,lowing infamous diatribe the most abom
inable, without doubt, that ever disgraced
n-court of justice. During the reading,
which wi interrupted only by an occa
sional half-suppressed snort from an Ethi
opian grand Juryman, Botts shut his eye,
and, compressing the lids violently, looked
as if attempting to imagine himself some
where else.
"Gtntteneaftht OmmlJury : Theotreumstan
ces surrounding us demand devoutthanketfving
to Almighty God that we, the friends and repre
sentatives of the eovernment of the United
States, who last year were threatened with de
struction, and hunted by assascins in this cits-,
for attempting toexeoutotbelawsof ourcoun
try,on,aoW'mcct in conscious security under
the vtinirs of the starry banner which, our patriot
Uonirress has. raised for our protection. That we
are permitted to meet in this building of ever
lasting granite, so emblematic of the power and
strength of our government, standing alone nnd
unharmed amid the great conflagration that
swept, a: with a besom of destruction, oil around
it.
"And what solemn associations are suggested
by reflecting that in the very rooms we now oc
cupy dwelt the fiery soul of treason, rebellion
nnd civil war hence issued that fell spirit which
starved by wholesale prisoners for the crime pf
defending the flag of oar common country ; as
easilnatcd colored soldiers for their noble nnd
trussing labors' in behalf of a government that
nun as yei ociy promised mom protection;
burned townsa and cities with a barbarity un
known to Christian countries; scattered yellow
fever and small pox among the poor and nelples,
and finally struck down one of earth's noblest
martyrs to freedom and humanity.
"Another subject of thanksgiving is presented
in the very constitution of your body, furnishing
ocular evidence that the age of caste and clnsit
cruelty has departed, and the new era of justice
and equality, breaking through the clouds pf
persecution and prejudice, is now dawning upon
us. And strangest of all that this city of Rich
mond should be the spot of earth to furnish this
?racious manifestation. Richmond, the beauti
ul and abandoned seat of the rebellion, looking
as comely and specious as a goodly apple or a
gilded sepulchre, where bloody treason flour
ihed Its whips of scorpions. Richmond, where
the slave trad so long held high carnival ;
where the press has found the loweM depths of
profligacy ; where licentiousness has ruled until,
probably, a majority of births were illegitimate,
r without the forms of law; where the fashion
able and popular pulpit had been so prostituted
thai Its full fed ministering gay Lotharios gene
rally recommended the worship of what they
most respected pleasure, property or powers
corresponding to the pagan ormythological ideas
of Uncchus, Mammon or Mars
'Gods brutal, partial, passionate and unjust;
Whore attributes were rage, revenge and lust.
It was as If the fiends prevailed
Against the seraphs they assailed;
And fixed on heavenly thrones should dwell.
The freed inheritors of hell.
So soft tho scene, so formed for Joy,
So cured the causes that destroy.'
" Rut we aro reminded that. ' where sin
abounded, grace may much more abound," and.
in the light of recent changes, may we not hone
a material and moral luture for this city of Rich
mond, in strong contrast with its awful and
atheistic and in harmony with the salubrity of
Its climate, the poetic beauty of its sconcry and
the magnificence of Its water power,
"1 hate sometimes found that, by tho usages
of tbisrsate, which have given the selection of
iurlM tn I In. sheriff nnd marshals, or. in nrofeS-
slonal language, have packed juries instead of
drawing them irem a box 01 names seiecieu ny
other oflice.-s, as is done in most of the States,
there was danger of getting different persons
upon the panel, but the care and rare judgment
which our marshals have always shown in their
election. irove wv fears unfounded, and I am
truly gratified to find so many gentlemen of
public and privale worlh upon the present jury.
" so often hesr. from treasonable sources
around us, of cruel nets passed by Congress since
the beginning of the wax acts which wo are
called upon to enforce that it is well, perhaps,
fiironn moment to consider the utter falsehood
.if such charges, und to find, on examination,
the unparalleled clemency and forbearance of
the victorious rovernmect, which, but for the
cost of tho rebellion, would now be felt only in
its protection and its blessings. While it has
heretofore been the common law of all nations,
our own included, to punish treason by death, it
ctiu reserved for thn American Congress, in the
midst of a gigantic rebellion, on the 17th day of
Julr, lS82,to reduce that punishment. It courts
should seo fit. to fine and imprisonment. Again,
it has been the usage of all nations, in peace ni
well as war.to make the wrong-doers, even in
the most trivial trespass, roe pond out of his pro
perty to the full amount of the damages ho has
committed, a practice and usage also of victori
ous governments In all ordinary wars and ver
we have seen -a patriot statesman, remarkable
alike for his age and the blessing of education,
culture and improvements ho had conferred
upon his State and country astatosraan greatly
eminent among his fellow-legislators, and, by
common consent of successive Congresses, ac
knowledged as a leader and father with a defer
ence thai neither Clay, Fox. the Pitts, nor even
Cicero had ever known. This noble man wo
have seen assailed with a bitterness and false
hood petuliar to the authors and leaders of the
rebellion, its pimps and apologists, and for what?
Why, for proposing that a few of those who had
been chiefly instrumental in filling theland with
war and mourning, and debt and taxation, and
who, like the late Secretary of the Rebel finances,
bad made millions by blockade-running and by
speculating upon the general distress, should,
out of thalr nnneelv estates-Contribute onetcnth
of the damages they had doce, and at the f ame
time expressly exempting from penalty all the
great tsassei or tnoso who bad been drawn into
thelatewar. This homano statesman also pro
poses net to punish anv with that extreme rigor
usual in oivtl wan, and not even to tho extent
exacted by every huropean nation in ordinary
frrirn warr. Was such moderation and clem
ency ever brtore to abused and insulted May
the grandest old statesman of our country and
age still continue to strive, notwithstanding the
advance of years and diffuse, and we may yet bo
raided hr his wisdom and beneficence, until the
f reat questions now pending be decided in tho
nterest of peace, progress and freedom.
1 regret, gentlemen, that I eannot encourage
o trim the hece of a short or lirht session, as
I am iBfenaed by the District Attorney that
your labors may be considerable.

HOB this subject I may bave.occssionilo ad
dress 'you more 'at length -our a future: occa
sion. " Vour attention is particularly called to an
abuse which bad assumed an alarming aspect
in thisity. as a relic of the old barbarism of
slavery, 1 mean the brutal' rejection of a great
laboring and useful class of the people from
the street ears. Under the act of Congress com
monly called the. civil rights bill, .there is an
Undoubted remeVly 'for such outrages. Char
tered transportation companies owe impartial
duties to the public, and the gross wrongs com-
. plained of deserve your Indignant reprobation.
I know the matter has been arranged by the
Commanding General, with his usual great pru
dence and judgment; but it is, from its na
ture, a mere temporary settlement, and needs
confirmation by the legal sanction of courts
and Juries. 1 only ask that you add .your
weight to what has been so well and wisely
done by the Oeneral. If any of your cumber
.know of any violation of law, it is your duty tp
report it to the body, which should always he
sixteen in number, anil tho assent of twelve U
required to find a true bill."
, The charge .having keen concluded, the
Judge instructed the jury to re-assemble
this morning at 11 o'clock, and ordered tho
crier to close the court.
UNDERWOOD LIABLE TO INDICTMENT.
From the lUchmond Enquirer, 8th.
Stevens- sayst-Virginia is na Sjate. If
there Is "no Virginia" there cannot, of
course, be-any Senators from Virginia. If
no Senator, then Underwood cannot be
a Senator, even were tie no Judge. And
yet it Is notorious that he peculates under
the name of Senator. We have before us,
now, an envelope which paraed through the
maij,,ppstmarked "Alexandria, Yst, Feb
ruary 10," and'endorsed "J. C. Underwood,
U.S.S." This being interpreted means,
John 0. Underwood, united Stales Senator
and UnitedSlatesSenatorrom 1'inp'nta. The
inscription was a claim of an office which he
did not hold, nnd could not hold, and which,
according to Stevens, "the light among the
nations," did not exist made for the pur
pose, of defrauding the United States trea
sury ' out of three cents And .-the attempt
was successful, for the letter pissed to its
destiftatiriti postage free.
Judge pnaerwood being thus convictedof
annct not only unlawful, but not possible
to be lawiu!, according to the opinions of
the man who is the "leader" in Congress and
"light among.the nations," it follows that
he ought to be indicted. In" his charge to
the jury he says : "If any of your number
know of any violation of law i is your duty
Eb report it to the"body." There are men on
the"" jury whom in other days we have
known as conscientious men. Will they
pass over this offense without inquiry ? Is
Judge John C. Underwood, United State
Senator froni Virginia, as he clairaes to be
with power to frank letters as he assumes
to dq? Has he the right thus to diminish
the revenue of the government whose pay
he draws as Judge? Has he the right to
frank not merely hb own letters, but the
letters' of other people, as in the case before
usV No ordinary Senator can lawfully do
this. Thad. Stevens, though the "light
among the nations" cannot do it. It may
be that J. C. Underwood, being a peculiar
sort of a "U. S.S.,." has peculiar privileges.
Let the grand jury inqure into it, "We ap
peal, to John M. Botts who claims a sort of
Boma'n virtue, tosil on thebodyof his Judge.
We appeal to Joseph Segar, who also franks
as United States Senator from Virginia, we
are told, but who does not draw pay as
Judge, and perhaps, does not endorse the
man who says there is "no Virginia" td
make presentment of his opinion of this
abuse. But we call with egpeciel confi
dence on the "colored" jurors to vindi
cate the public morals, and. rebuke corrup
tion in high othce. A new broom sweeps
clean," says the proverb. Let the black
jurors set the example of integrity and
devotion to justice, that shall shame their
pale-face colleagues, if they shrink from
their duty,
JUDICAL VENOM T0WAIID3 MB. DAVIS.
From Forney's Washington Chroniclo, 7th,
The friends of Jeff. Dpris, in their ureat
haste to secure his release, are likely to get
him Info more trouble. When he leaves
the casemates of Fortress Monroe he is by
no means set at liberty fo plot another re
bellion, a3 some unsophisticated people
seem to suppose.- He simply passes from
under the control ot the military authori
ties to the jurisdiction of the civil courts.
Inasmuch as he has been indicted for trea
son, which is a capital offense just as much
as murder is, it is scarcely possible that
Judge Underwood will take bail for him
when lie comes into court. In that case he
will be committed to jail to await bis trial
when the United States District Attorney
shall be ready to proceed with it. We
should think his friends would prefer that
he should spend the summer at a pleasant
watering place like Fortress Monroe rather
thari in the Richmond jail. Some people,
however, never know when they are happy.
THE rr.EI.INO AT NORrOI.K AND PORTS
MOUTH.
Fortress Monroe, May 4. The intelli
gence flashed across the wires and published
in the Norfolk papers of this morning that
the counsel of Jeff. Davis had obtained a
writ of Jiabeas corpus, directing the Com
manding General of the fortress to deliver
the prisoner in Richmond on the 13th
instant, created a profound impression
among the citizens of both Portsmouth
and Norfolk.
In Norfolk Mr. Davis and his family have
many relations and friends, and great anx
iety was manifested on the streets to learn
the minutest particulars connected with his
release from confinement. Mrs. Davis has
been nbsent on visits to Washington
several times during this month, and went
to Baltimore night before last, intend
ing from thence to again proceed to the
capital, and make a final effort, with
the aid of Mr. O'Connor and his asso
ciate counsel, in procuring the release
of Mr. Davis, upon whatever condi
tions the government might deem pro
per to offer. Several prominent men-both
wealthy and political, have visited Davis
in the fortress within the past few days,
and it was rumored while they were here
that their visits were made in furtherance
of the wishes of Mrs. Davis, and her desire
to have their intercession before the author
ities at Washington. Davis has been in
imprisonment in the fortress nearly two
years, having landed here on the 22d day
of May, JSG5, and arrived on the steamer
William P. Clyde n few days previous from
Savannah.
For a year his imprisonment was of a
very rigorous character, owing to rumors
of plans being started to effect his forcible
release from the fortress. The mode of
imprisonment, however, has been gradually
relaxed from time to time, until eight
months ago it culminated in allowing him
far more privileges inside the garrison than
the officers and soldiers themselves enjoyed.
The guards which surrounded his quarters
dav and night were entirely removed, and
he was furnished comfortable apartments
in Carroll Hall, for the use of bis family
and friends visiting him.

and Character of Gov. S8ro Blew :
HyCoI. John Busier.
From the Knoxvilis Commercial, 10th.
s From Aogat't 18(51 till
June 1802, my entire time and energies
were . almost exclusively devotttl . to the
relief of oppressed Union men, sharing in
their peril, "and laboring' unceasingly for
their relief. And amongothera Gojerriot
Brownlow was one of the chief recipients
of my untiring efforts. His double dealing,
indiscretion, and want of manly courage,
had driven htm Into the mountains of
JJlount and Sevier xunties, where he lay
concealed in the keeping of friends, while
he was crouching and begging, through n
unmanly correspondence, with the Rebel
military authorities as I understood at the
time for permission to return to his fami
ly. While thus situated, .at the request of
Mrs. Brownlow, a most excellent and true
hearted wotnan, I undertook to procure
permission for him fo leave the Confederate
States. To this end, in connection with
other business in thc.interest of other Union
men, I visited Richmond at my own person
al expense, and procured from President
Davis, through his Secretary of War and
Gen. Crittenden, commanding in East Ten
nessee, a passport for him to leave and be
rotected by a military escort, but before
e could leave, he was arrested bv a war
rant issuing from the civil authorities, on a
charge of treason, and committed to prison.
When it was ascertained that his pass
port had been procured through me, a per
fect storm of indignation was excited among
the eight or-ten thousand Confederate sol
diery then in East Tennessee. I was at
tacked with great violencein the Xnoxville
Register and Richmond Examiner. Th
storm was such as to awe some of his pxes-'
ent friends into utter silence. Neverthe
less, I adhered to his cause ; got up a cor
respondence with the'Confederate Secretary
of War and Attorney "General ; insisted
that "good faith demanded his release,"
and urged the justice of this demand by
calling their attention to the fact "that he
was concealed and out of the reach of the
Confederate government, nnd'that he had
come in upon the invitation of General
Crittenden, with the promise of a passport
to Kentucky." In addition to this, I wrote
an article for the Richmond JErammer, in
defense of my own action and in vindica
tion of the Confederate authorities, through
which, in connection with other influences,
he was released and sent safely through
the lines. It is believed by many who are
best acquainted with the facts, that he is
indebted to ray persistent efforts for the
miserable existence which now enables
him, by a corrupt and profligate adminis
tration, to cast a blighting mildew upon
every interest in the State. And besides,
he knows the many sacrifices, personal and
pecuniary, which I made for others, and,
in nineteen cases out of twenty, without
compensation. For a time, and when he
was clinging to me for protection, in his
Whig of September 21st,- 1SG1, and when
moved by .1 momentary impulse of grati
tude, he volunteered the following editorial
evidence in my behalf:
" We have one word to say in regard to
Col. Baxter, which is without his knowl
edge or advice. Some few complaint! are
made that he entered the Confederate court
last week and took an oath to suppbrt the
constitution of the Confederate States. We
think it most fortunate for the Unidn
prisoners he did so. The Judge announced
that no attorney could practice in that
court without taking that oath; and there
were then sixty Or seventy Union men to
be tried in that court for the most trilling
offenses imaginable, but nevertheless to hi
tried-and many of them without means to
employ counsel. He.volunteered todefeml
them, has done bo, and will continue to dtil
bo as long as they are arrested, following
such of them as are sent to Nashville, and
defending them at his own expense 'and
without tee or reward."
In all this the Governor accorded me but
simple justice; he Bimply proclaimed what
this wliole community Knew to be true.
Yet in the face of this public declaration,
and In disregard of the known facts in the
premises, he is now ungrateful, malicious
and mean enough, to use his newspaper fo
perpetrate a charge which he knows'fo be
false and without the slightest founda
tion.
There is one other matter in this connec
tion, which will tend to illustrate the Gov
ernor's true character. After I had expend
ed between $3000 and 4000 of my private
means in my efforts to serve the Governor
and other Union men; andaflermy actions
nau drawn uown upon 1110 the bitterness of
the Confederate soldiery, which culminated
in an organizeAmob of a Georgia regiment
contemplating my assassination, in Febru
ary ; and which led to my arrest and im
prisonment for sixteen days by the Rebel
military, in March and April, 18G2, the
Governor is ungrateful and base enough, in
his attack of the 8th, to say :
"Alter the deleat of .Baxter, he was open
ly attributing that defeat to the Governor.
and giving it as his opinion, that he was
concerned in the bridge burning. Nay,
more, he threatened to make the Governor
feel the consequenses of not supporting
him, by the collection of a debt he held ;
and he did feel it by Baxter getting his
printing otuce at halt price."
XT 1 . . - - .
j.uw Hee iiuw a piain statement 01 lacts
will put the Governor to flight:
His business, the publication of the
Whig, was so embarrassed in the summer
and fall of 18G1, as to afford liim an in
adequate support for his family, and forced
him into the market as a borrower.
Ho negotiated a loan from Mr. Phillip
Shetterly for $1200, on condition that I
would become his security, which, upon
his application, I agreed to do. But soon
after he fled to the mountains, as has been
hereinbefore stated, the Rebel military
threatened to seize and confiscate his press
es, tne only property lie owned. Jn this
critical condition of the Governor's affairs.
his son John, who was acting as his father's
agent, called to consult me as to the best
means of preventing thS threatened sei-
znre and conhscation or Jits father's prop
erly : and after a friendly conversation on
the subject, it was agreed between us, that
I, as his securitv to Shetterly, should file
an attachment bill for the double purpose
of protecting me and throwing a legal ob
stacle in the way of the military seizure.
The bill, now on file in the Chancery
Court at this place, will show .the most
friendly and conciliatory spirit towards
my malignant and ungrateful assailant.
Thus matters stood for a few days when
John Brownlow again called to inform jne
that he had been informed that Gen. Car
roll had determined to seize his father's
press, notwithstanding the attachment lev
ied in my favor. In view of this fact, be
proposed to sell the property to me, exhib
ited a statement from his father showing
its first cost to be a little over $5000. Re
lieving that I stood in a better situation to
contend for the property than the liovernor,
frightened and concealed in the moun
tains as he was, and purely from a friendly
disposition to aid him, (for I had no use
for a printing press at that time) after a
few moments' rcllection, 1 agreed to pur-
jliesk 1$ anrl r3f4 est mf trio nMna n al a1 an.)
A MIU UJtlft W am SU V ajAAVrU UC&CUi 114
now hold his receipts for $5014 19, it being
$4419 more than the sum agreed to be
paid.
The purchase was made at "his instance
and request, at the price which he had fixed
upon it, which was its full value, and at a
time when it was liable to be seized" and
appropriated by the Rebel authorities. On
the next morning it was seized -the engine
and honse were placed, in possession of art
ordnance officer, by whom it was converted
into an armory, for the repair of pins. Tha
other material, after being detained fori
sercral months was returned tome. Every
thing appreciated in value, printing ma
terial became very scarce in the Confedera
cy, enabling me to sell at an advance for a
depreciated currency. From sales ' thus
made, I have realized jun about enough toj
indemnify me for the purchase, (though l
SUNDAY, MAY 12,
received it in currency worth twenty-five
per cent, leas than that paid for it) leaving
the engine,still on hand when the "Federal
army took possession of East Tennessee,
in September, 18G3, when, moved by gen
erosity and compassion, I made.' at present
of the engine, worth at lime, in Federal
currency, some seven or eight bundled dol
lars," and it is with lliia engine, received as
a present from me under the circumstances
detailed, that the Governor's running what
hehaaiit times been pleased to style his'
'iSmul Machine," through and by means of
whiphhe i profusely throwing biasmilt at
me., Could meanness descend to a lower
depth than this?
I will continue my review of the Gay
ernor's attack on me, in the (hmmercial
to morrow. JbrtN Baxter.

2ew Yoke, May 10 The Heralds
London special, says : The fortress Lux
embourg will be evacuated by the.Prassian
troops and razed to the ground. No troops
will be retained within the territory of
Luxembourg, except the force which may
be necessary to maintain order and preserve
peace.
The pressure which, was exerted on the
plenipotentiaries in Congress by the defiant
attitude which the opposing powers main
tained .towards each other, combined with
the knowledge which members had of the
tgreat war preparations being carried on, on
the continent led to a. very speedy action on
the part of the conference representatives.
In the House of Commons on the eve
ning of the 9tb, Lord Stanley congratu
lated the house and country at large on the
fact that good sense and moderation of the
powers, primarily interested, as parties in
the Luexembourg difficulty, had had tha
effect of arresting unspeakable calamities
which ensue to the people from an European
war. With respect to the part taken by her
Majesty's government in the matter, the
Cabinet acted in accordance with the con
stitutional usages in their ministerial re
sponsibility as official advisers of the crown
and, sovereign, which responsibility, as-
well as the reasons whicli induced them to
undertake ; they were ready to vindicate
to-. Parliament and before the. country. The
matter had become very critical. Ministers
werp informed every moment by telegraph
and otherwise of increasing gravity of the
case, so he (Lord Stanley) could not take it
upon himself to postpone or delay an
amendment desired by all parties inter
ested and proposed in conference, when by
bo doing he would most likely prevent al
together the maturing and giving expres
sion to sentiment with reference guarantee
ing neutrality toJLuxembourg. He-(Lord
Stanley) regretted , to observe that the
House of Commons should show suscepti
bility with regard to the action of the
Cabinet, for he also voted for the guarantee
of the.members of the House, and who were
aware that England, and what was an un
common occurrence, the remainder of the
great powers, who were parties to the Lux
embourg and Blego-Holland treaty of the
year 1339, had absolutely guarantied the
territory of Luxembourg to the King of
Holland at that time. What the govern
ment had now done was merely to adopt
that guarantee to the present circum
stances of tho case and render it efficacious
in view of the changes which had taken
place in tho Germanic Confederation. Min-
latara l.rl nn( n.l.nwt lit, f An 1-. .... ....
n.v. ...... nut j 1 1 j uit me wisutltt-
ry, had rather limited the guarantee in
curred in 18S9, and by that action contract
ed the responsibilities which the country
submitted, and under the present negotia
tions would bo bought to a conclusion Willi
in a few days, and their the papers con
nected with the proceedings of the London'
rt - ito?-T . -IJ 1.. t 1
iieuce vAjiigrens, 01 ioui, would ue isiu
before Parliament.
Lord Cheeney followed the close of Lord
Stanley's speech, during the close of thb
debate in the House of Commons on the
Delaraeli reform amendment.
Mr. Gladstone said the government bill
wasa shallow, transparent, and discriminat
ing practice of a measure. He despaired
of its ever being made good or beneficial
dv tne amendment in tne nouse.
John Bright made a speech, in which he
declared the Derby bill the most unjust nnd
offensive measure ever submitted to the
House of Commons of England.
Air. Roebuck and JJelsraeli defended the
government bill plan, and the debate closed
after a speech by the Chancellor ol the t,x-
hequer.
Strangers were then excluded from the
House and n division taken. When the
doors were opened, it wns declared that the
vote was lor the government bill, viz: Uor
the government, 332 : against it, 25G ; ma
jority for the government, GO. The an
nouncement of the result was received with
loud and prolonged cheering from the min
isterial benches.
