I J,mptrial adianttnt. I I HOUSE OF LORDS.—MONDAY. Earl RUSSRLL laid on the lable the protocols relating to the Conference. In doing 80, he entered at great length, and with much minuteness into the circumstances which led to the convening of the Conference, and the various proposals made there. Finally, he announced that the Government, seeing all their propositions uad been rejected both by Denmark and the German Powers, were resolved not to take up arms for Denmark unless the integrity of the Danish islands proper were threatened. The Earl of DERBY declined to enter at that time on any discussion in reference to the question raised. It was clear, however, that the policy of the Government must be most seriously considered, and they must prepare to defend themselves. After a few words from Earl Granville and Lord Brougham, the subject dropped. The other orders were disposed of, and the house then adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS—MONDAY. I The House of Commons presented a scene of unusual animation. Even before the Speaker had entered the House most of the places in the body of the Chamber had been occupied. When Lord Palmerston rose at about a quarter to five, to make his statement as to the Conference, there was not a vacant place in the House. The Stranger's Gallery was filled, so were the Speaker's Gallery, and that apportioned to the ambassadors. The members' galleries were literally crowded, and below not only were all the seats occupied, but members had ga. thered up at the bar in large numbers. Lord PALMERSTON began by recounting the circum- stances which led to the war. He detailed the facts con- nected with the treaty of 1852, and then weuton to de- scribe the difficulties which had subsequently risen. He narrated the proceedings of the Conference substantially, and indeed minutely, and concluded by declaring that the resolution to which the Government had come was that as both parties had declined to agree to the propo- sals of Great Britain, Denmark being the most strenuous in buch refusal, and as no other neutral Power would take up arms in the matter, the Ministry would not re- commend the Sovereign or Parliament to take up arms for Denmark. This decision might, however, be modi- fied if an attack were made upon the Danish island pro- per, in which case Parliament would be informed of the fact as soon as possible. Mr, DISRAELI did not intend to go into any discussion then, but he thought it right that the House should have an opportunity of pronouncing upon the policy of the Goverement, from which he dissented strongly. He could not agree that the maintenance of the integrity of the Danish islands proper was alone necessary for the balance of power in Europe. He should take the earliest possible opportunity of enabling the House to express an opinion on the policy of the Government. The motion that the papers relating to the Conference be laid on the table was then agreed to. On the order for going into Committee of Supply, Mr. A YRTON moved a resolution that the grant to the King of Greece of an annuity of £ 4000 out of moneys belong- ing to the Consolidated Fund by treaty not made sub- ject to the sanction of Parliament, is a violation of the privileges of the House of Commons. Upon an explanation by the CHANCELLOR of the Ex. CHEQUER he withdrew the motion. M r. ADDERLEY, who had given notice of a resolution that it is inexpedient that detachments of British troops should be stationed upon exposed posts on the Canadian frontier unless adequately supported by Canadian forces, discussed at considerable length the policy towards Ca- nada. Some remarks by Lord R. Cecil upon the danger to which Canada was exposed was answered by Mr. C. For- tescue, who stated that preparations had been made and were making to meet future danger. Mr. CAVE called attention to the conduct of the Cus- toms' authorities of the United States at New York in refusing clearance to British ships engaged in legitimate trade between that port and Jamaica, except upon the most onerous and unusual conditions. Mr. LAYARD said the conditions referred to were be. yond the competency of the United States to impose; protests had already been made, and the subject would not be lost sight of. The House was at length able to go into a Committee of Supply upon the remaining Civil Service Estimates, the discussion of which lasted till past midnight. HOUSE OF LORDS—TUESDAY. I The Broker's Bonds and Rents Bill was rejected on the motion for the second reading. A large number of measures having been advanced a stage, Lord BROUGHAM called attention to the cessation of the Brazilian slave trade, and urged that the pledge of Lord Aberdeen to repeal the Aberdeen Act whenever the Brazilian authorities put a atop to the traffic should be redeemed. Earl RUSSELL exprewed his opinion that it would not be prudent to sa&tWftA the act at present, as a party in Brazil fawuttbfe tD the restoratiou of the trade might come into pttWer. After a few words from Lord Hougbton, tbe subject dropped. HOUSE OF COMMONS-TUESDAY. I The House held a morning sitting, when the Dublin Trunk Railway Bill was read a third time and p.ed. ?ne Thames Conservancy Bill, the Lunacy (Scotland) Bill, and the Administration of Trusts (Scotland) Bill, passed tljroush committee. At the evening sitting, Mr. DLSRAEU gave notice that on Monday next he should move the following address to the Crown :To thank her Majesty for having directed the correspondence on Denmark and Germany, and the protocols of the Conference recently held in London, to be laid before Parliament; to assure her Maiesty we have heard with deep concern that the sit- ting of the Conference have been brought to a close without accomplishing the important purpose for which it was convened; and to express to her Majesty our great regret that while the course pursued by her Ma- iesty's Government has failed to maintain their avowed policy of upholding the integrity and independence of Denmark, it has lowered the just influence of this coun- try in the council s of Europe, and thereby diminished the securities for peace. Mr. KINOLAKE gave notive that he should move an amendment. Mr. B. COCHRANE moved an address for a copy of any correspondence which had passed between departments of the Government with respect to grants of pensions to colonial governors. Tha CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER having explained that the whole question was under consideration, and that he should be prepared next session to introduce a bill on the subject, the motion was withdrawn Mr. DOULTON moved that it was the duty of the Go- vernment to provide for the preservation of open spaces in and around the metropolis and within the limits assigned in the 14tJ. section af the Enclosure Act of 1845. „ The motion was carried by 79 votes to 40. Mr. P. WYNDHAM moved the abolition of the annual grant for Queen's Plates, contending that it no longer encouraged the breed of good horses. After some observations from Mr. N ewdegate, Sir R, Peel, and General Peel, Lord PALMERSTON* promised, on behalf of the Govern- ment, to communicate with the Master of the Horse and endeavour to ascertain whether any improvement could be effected so as to remove the evil of which Mr. Wynd- ham complained. The motion was then withdrawn. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—WEDNESDAY. Mr. HENNESSY moved the second reading of the Poor Law (Ireland) Acts Amendment Bill, the object of which was to give the poor-law commissioners of Ireland per- missive powers similar to those possessed by boards of guardians in England for issuing orders for out door re- lief of able-bodied poor. Lord N AAS opposecl the bill, which, he said, would inflict, such mischief upon the ratepayers that in a few years the poor law would be unworkable. After a short debate, the house divided, and the bill was rejected by 201 votes against 117. The Tests Abolition (Oxford) Bill having passed through committee, the house went into committee on the Street Music [Metropolis] Bill. After a long discussion on some of the clauses of the measure the chairman reported progress. HOUSE OF LORDS—THURSDAY. A large number of public and private measures, in- cluding the Vacating of Seats (House of Commons) Bill and the Chimney Sweepers' Regulation Bill, received the royal assent. The Oyster Fishery (England and Wales) Bill was withdrawn on the representation that a commission was inquiring into the subject, aud that it would be premature to commit the house to the princi- ple of the bill before the commissioners had presented their report. The Government Annuities Bill was read a second time; the Servants' Hiring (Scotland) Bill was withdrawn. The Earl of DONOUQHMORE move a resolution which expressed disapproval of the manner in which the Lord- Lieutenant of Ireland exercised his power to remit the whole or a portion of the sentences of persons convicted of agrarian outrages. After a debate, in which Earl Granville defended the Lord-Lieutenant, the resolution was withdrawn. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—THOTSDAY. The Marquis of HAUTINOTON stated, in reply to Mr. Adderley, that adequate measures for the defence of Quebec would be taken. On the motion for going into a Committee of Supply, Sir J. PAKINGTON rose to move "that, in the opinion of the house, the mode in which it is proposed by the minute of March 11th, 1864, to make grants to endowed schools, and the distinction made by the same minute between endowed schools in the country and in towns, are unsatisfactory and unjust." The SPEAKER ruled that the resolution was substan- tially the same as that moved a short time ago by Mr. Adderley, and negatived by the house; and that, there- fore, it could not be brought forward during the present session. Sir J. PAKINQTON, of course, bowed to the Speaker's decision, but the Government said that the question waI not finally disposed of. Mr. TKEHERNE asked if the Government would use its influence to obtain such a modification of the French treaty as would ensure the free admission into France of English ribbons and watches—French manufactures of those descriptions being already admitted free into this country The honourable gentleman said that the operation of this one-sided treaty had caused very great distress at Coventry. Mr. JIILNER GrBSON pointed out that the destitution amongst the Coventry manufactures was exceptional, and partly owing to the caprice of fashion. On behalf of the Government, however, be promised that recom- mendations to the French Government should be made in order to bring about an improvement. The house then went into a committee of supply on the education estimates.

TO THE COMMISSIONERS ACTING UNDER I "THE RHYL IMPROVEMENT ACT, 1852." Gentlemen,—As I may not have an opportunity of addressing you personally before the close of the year for which you did me the honour to elect me your Chairman, I embrace this medium of conveying to you my determination at that period to resign the office of Commissioner, which I have by the kind favour of the Ratepayers of Rhyl, held for many years. It will be in your recollection that I contemplated taking this step last year, but having received a very flattering requisition, signed by a considerable majority of your body, urging me to alter my determination, I was induced to SJntimie in office another year. Having, however, now fully decided to resign, I place the ap- pointment of my successor in your hands. In retiring, I desire to thank the ratepayers for the confidence'they have reposed in me for so many years, and to you for the honour which you have upon several occasions conferred upon me by electing me to the res- ponsible office of chairman—I feel grateful. I have en- deavoured to the best of my humble ability, faithfully to discharge the onerous duties devolving upon me, and to support only such measures as I considered most needed for the improvement and welfare of such a rapidly in- creasing town; and I shall ever continue to take a lively interest in all matters tending to the development of the many advantages it possesses. I have the honour to remain, Your obedient servant, JOHN CHURTON. I Imperial Hotel, Great Malvern, 27th June, 1864.

LINES I Copied from the Visitors' Book at the Oakley Arms Hotel, Tany- bwlch, 17th June, 1804. In love to His creatures God ashioned these mountains, These rocks called He forth in their grandeur to prove That Wales in her beauty-her dark foaming fountains, Her valleys of peace, were created in love. But when the arch-evil one's sinful temptation Lured man from his maker {these mountains and vales Then nameless before)-at Satan's dictation Did Adam give names to the places of Walei. And thus comes to pass all the anguish to trouble, you To rightly pronounce the long names on the road, To give their due sound to the Y's and the W If a tourist you aim to be -quite a la mode. For instance, here's this sweetest spot in creation, Where nature has lavished around us her charms, In wood-rock and water, say nought, in relation To the victual so dainty of good Oakley Arms. Tanybwlch-I have twisted my tongue to pronounce it, And swallowed it too, but It wont yield the note The Welshman delights in-I therefore renounce it, I, only can draw L'anny Bulk from my throat.

NEWS OF THE WEEK. I The Queen continues at Windsor, every day making excursions, riding or walking and on Tuesday, her Majesty went to London, accompa- nied by the Princesses Helena and Louise when she visited the House of Lords, and the Dean of Westminster. The royal party returned to Wind- sor to dinner. It is expected that her Majesty will soon remove to Osborne, returning to the Castle again for a short time, previous to her autumnal trip to Bal- moral. On Friday, Prince Arthur took leave of her Majesty, and, accompanied by Major Elpliiu- stone, went to Woolwich, where he embarked for Ostend, from whence he goes to Brussels, to visit the King of the Belgians. His Royal Highness will proceed to Coburg from Brussels and when he leaves that German city, will go to Switzer- land. The Prince of Wales took the chair at Willis's Rooms, for the first time, on Friday, as President of the Society for the encouragement of Aft. It was the day for the annual distribution of prizes and a series, from £3 to C25 in value, was deliv- ered, to various candidates for proficiency in dif- ferent branches of science, literature, and art. The Society, in memory of their late president, the Prince Consort, have instituted a prize called the Albert Medal," to be awarded for eminent services to all classes of the commuuity. This medal is of gold, with elegant designs and inscrip- tions on the obverse and reverse. This was the first year of its being given and it was awarded to Sir Rowland Hill, for his efforts with re- spect to the penny postage, and other reforms. In presenting this first Albert Medal to Sir Rowland Hill, the Prince said, he had very great plea- sure in doing so. The pleasure would have been great in conferring it under ordinary circum stances but it was infinitely enhanced, when he had to present it to so great a person,—to one who had rendered so great and signal services to his country."—Sir Rowland Hill made au appro- priate reply. In the evening of Friday, the Prince and Prin- cess of Wales dined with a select party in Devon- shire-house at a later hour, the Duke had a large party to a ball and supper, to meet their Royal Highnesses.—On Saturday, their Royal Highnesses went to Windsor Castle; and the Prince and Princess Louis of Hesse, accompanied Prince Alfred to Spithead, where he joined the Racoon, which has sailed on a northern cruise. After taking leave of the young sailor, their royal highnesses returned to Windsor. The Prince and Princess of Wales returned to Marlborough-house, on Monday. The Duke de Montpensier is lying indisposed at Wood-Norton, near Eversham, the favourite retreat of the Duke d'Aumale. The Queen sent Dr. Jenner to attend his royal highness, early last week and he remained with him one day and night. The royal patient was at one tiaie considered to be in a precarious state, his symp- toms, at times, being very alarming but he is now considered to have passed the critical stage of his illness. The Gazette of Friday, contained a notification from the Danish embassy to Earl Russell, to the effect, that if hostilities should be renewed on the 26th, so would the blockade of the German ports in the Baltic; a short but sufficient time being allowed to all neutral vessels which might be in those ports.—The blockade was renewed on the 27th twenty days being allowed to neutral ves- sels to depart. On Fridav, the coroner's jury sitting at Egham, to inquire into the accident which occurred in the Ascot-race week, occasioning the death of six per- sons, returned a verdict of manslaughter agaiust Thos. Lee, the driver, and John Trainer, the fire- man of the Milo engine, attached to the second train and passed a strong censure upon the mis- management of the Company. The two prisoners were admitted to bail, on bonds for zClOO each; and two sureties each for a like amount. On Saturday, the Conference met at the official residence af the first Lord of the Treasury; and after signing the protocols, and passing a vote of thanks to Earl Russell, the president, the pleni- potentiaries separated.—We have noticed the pro- ceedings of this body, in a leading article, to which we refer our readers. We have also al- luded to the Conservative movement, in that part of our paper. The Channel F)eet remainsat Spithead, waiting orders from the Admiralty. At all the arsenals, we hear, there is great activity; and in the mili- tary departments preparations are making to equip 30,000 men at the shortest notice. On Saturday, the 25th ult, the Danish Rigsraad was opened by the President of the Council, who read the speech from the throne. It was to the effect, that the body had been summoned to pro- vide the necessary expenditure for the prosecu- tion of the war. We have recently," said his Majesty, "learnt how little the dearest right reckons in Europe, and how isolated we are. We therefore accedttd to the painful sacrifice of the country south of the Sclilei. The enemy demands more, but we reply negatively; being convinced that the people will agree with us. May God grant, that, in a certain place the sympathy for us may grow into active support."—In the Lower House, in the afternoon, Bishop Monrad, the President of the Council, said, thatafter Denmark had accepted the line of Schlei, Earl Russell said he would neither propose nor support, unless Denmark consented, any proposal less favoura- ble to her. Yet, on the 18th, although Denmark did not consent, he proposed that the question should be submitted to arbitration. He could pot cenceive how this proposal was consistent with the noble Earl's promise. At the sitting of the Federal Diet, on the 23rd ult., the claims of the Grand Duke of Oldenburg, to the Duchies of Schleswig and Holstein were put by his representative who protested against the claims of the Duke of Augustenburg, and communicated to the Diet, the renunciation, by the Emperor of Russia, of hit. rights in favour of Oldenburg.—The subject was referred to a com. mittee to report upon—The same day, a banquet was given at Heide, in honour of the Duke of Augustenburg who evinced no intention of aban- doning his claim on the contrary, he said he rejoiced at being the first German Prince of Sclileswig-Holstein and would in future adopt the separate interest*. On Friday morning, the Austro-Prussian squa- dron which had been anchored at Cuxhaven, put to sea, and sailed, it was said, for Bremerhafen.- On the 25th ult., Prince Albrecht of Prus- sia left Berlin for the head-quarters of the army in the Duchies, in consequence of a telegram sent by the King from Carlsbad. On the 26th, he passed in great haste through Hamburg, where it was reported he was the bearer of an order to the Commander-in-Chief, to recommence hostili- ties immediately. On that day, at six a.m., the Prussians commenced the attack of the fortifica- tions of Alsen from several batteries. They are said to have 60,000, and the Austrians25,000 men in the Peninsula. The Upper Chamber of Saxony, oil Monday, referred to a Committee, a motion, urging the Go vernment to use its influence to induce the en- tire Confederation to join in the war against Den- mark, and to call it the Federal War. The Emperor of Austria remained at Carlsbad, till Friday evening; when he left for Prague. Before his departure, Gen. von Roon arrived. His Majesty, previous to leaving, conferred the Grand Cross of the Order of St. Stephen upon Herr von Bismark. The King ofWurtemberg died on Saturday, the 25th of June, at Rosentein Castle. He had, for some time been in failing health. He was born on the 26th of September, 1781 and was thrice married. He leaves only one son, Prince Charles Frederick Alexander, now King of Wurtemburg, born March 6, 1823, and married July 13, 1846, to the Grand Duchess Olga, daughter of the late Czar, Nicholas I.-He has issued a proclamation of a cordial nature to the people solemnly declar- ing he would maintain the Constitution. It is expected lie will pursue the same policy as that which his father adopted, with respect to the Duchies. There appears to be more unanimity amongst the German Sovereigns on that point than on any other and according to a telegram from Vienna, dated the 28th ult., Austria has de- clared, that she will, on that question, henceforth fulfil her duty as a German power, without re- gard to her own special interests. The Emperor and Empress of France remain at Fontainebleau, where they are receiving a succes- sion of parties. A second series of invitations was issued last week to 26 persons. The visit was to be for twelve days, from June 26 to July 8.— Before these visitors arrived, on the 2oth, the Emperor went to the Tuileries, and presided at a Council of Ministers. On the 24th ult., the Italian Ministerof Foreign Affairs, in reply to a question from a Deputy, said, that to protect Italian interests in Peru, the Government had determined to hasten the depar- ture of an Italian Minister for Lima and to send vessels of war to the Pacific. -On the 27th, the Chamber of Deputies passed the budget of ex. penditure by 142 votes to 60.—One of the opposi- tion deputies said, that large as the deficit stated by the Minister was, the excess of expenditure over revenue, would exceed his estimate. The session of the Spanish Cortes was suspend- ed on the 25th ult. Admiral Pinzon had then demanded a further supply of war materiel; and it was announced that Senor Pacheco, the Minis- ter for Foreign Affairs, would address a circular note to the Powers on the Peruvian question.— The Queen was to return to the Palace yesterday, [the 1st of July]. It was announced, that, early last week, the political prisoners confined at Athens, Tripolitza, Nauplia, Chalris, and Zante, had attempted to escape, and had been aided by the intrigues of the revolutionary party. 0 In Ionia, the change from the protectorate of England to the dominion of Greece, appears to have given general satisfaction. The municipal- ity of Corfu, on the 22nd, presented a villa to the King, and up to that time 400 lonians had en- listed in the Greek army.—On the 24th, George I. left Corfu, to which place he appeared to be much attached. On the 24th ult., the Vienna papers published news from Constantinople, to the effect, that ac- cording to the agreement between the Sultan and Prince Couza, a Senate will be formed for the Principalities, the members to be partly nominat- ed by the Prince, and partly elected by the peo- ple. The Conference has sanctioned the arrange- ment. The sufferings of the immigrant Circassians are described, in the accounts from the Turkish capi- tal, to be very great. The English Government has sent biscuits to them, to the value of 25000 and has made all offer to the Porte, of facilitating a special loan, to purchase necessaries to be distributed among them. Despatches from Tunis, to the 18th of June, announced the arrival of a Turkish gun-boat, and schooner, with important despatches. It was ru- moured that the Turkish Commissioner would be re-called, which would greatly facilitate the ar- rangement of affairs. At Vienna, it was reported on Monday, that negociatioJls were going on be- tween the Porte and Egypt, for the conclusion of a treaty to replace the garrison of Tunis by Egyp- tian troops. New York papers and letters to the 15th of June, confirm the previous accounts received of the failure of Gen. Grant's plan of attack on Lee's line of defence. He had then not only abandon- ed the position, on which he pledged himself to fight it out if it took him all the summer;" but after a sacrifice of at least 80,000 men, he had adopted the plan recommended by M'Clellan. On the 13th, he reported that an important move- ment was in successful progress that he had changed his base from the White House to the James l iver, and was moving to post his arm) on the south bank. This new flank appears to have been opposed by Gen. Lee, as heavy firing was heard on the 13th, near Bottom's Bridge, on the edge of the Chickahominy swamps. Further south, on the 10th, Gen. Butler attacked Peters- burg. Successful at first, lie appears to have been finally repulsed with great loss and to have re- tired to his own works. In Tennessee, the Federals have also met with a discomfiture. There the Confederate General Forrest has long been operating against the Fede- ral army, under Sherman, Thich was advancing on Atlanta. A separate division under General Sturgis, was organised at Memphis, and marched to check Forrest's operations. Forrest encoun- tered this division at Guatown, and totally de- feated it; killing Sturgis and capturing all his artillery, and many prisoners. In Georgia, the Confederate Gen. Johnson, was in position along the Hills from Kenesany to the Lost Mountain, westward to Marietta and the Federal outposts were within 500 yards of his line. In Kentucky, the Confederate guerilla Morgan, seriously damaged the central railroad. On the 10th he attacked Frankfort, without success; on the 11th. he captured Cynthia, and two Federal regiments but on the 12th, it is reported, that he was attacked at Cynthia, and defeated, by the Federals, under Gen. Barbridge, with a loss of 600 killed and wounded. Barbridge re-captured 100 prisoners, and took 1000 horses and Mor- gan's forces retired in a demoralised condition.— The Confederate batteries at Columbia, on the Mississippi, are also reported to have been dis- persed. The most particular item of political news is, that on the 13th ult., by 82 votes to 58, the House of Representatives passed a bill repealing all the laws for the rendition of fugitive slaves. The session was to end on the 23rd. We have accounts of the landing of the Empe- ror and Empress of Mexico at Vera Cruz, on the 29th of May. It is stated that they were receiv- ed by a large concourse of people, with gieat en- thusiasm and, after receiving the authorities, they proceeded, by rail, to the capital. Such is one account.—The Havannah correspondent of the New York Herald, however, says, I know, from private letters, that the reception was so ex- tremely cool, that their Majesties complained of it.The Emperor, on landing, issued an ad- dress to the Mexicans, in which he promised to be faithful to his trust. i
