Bill. The Hull Cemetery Bill was considered and agreed to. The 
Kilkenny and Great Southern and Western Railway Bill was read u 
second time and ordered to be committed. A large number of peti- 
tions were presented, that all public-houses may be cleared on Sundays 
Sir II. llall said all the unpaid commissioners of the metropolitan 
sewers had resigned ; but before their resignation they ordered ail the 
draining works, amounting to .£300,000 sterling, to be continued 
Now. lie wished to know' if these works had received the sanction of 
the Secretary of State. 
Mr. Fitzroy replied that such sanction was not [necessary ; but the 
continuance of all the works had not been ordered. The only order 
made was, that the works already commenced should be continued 
until the new commission was appointed. 
Mr. Oliveira asked the Secretary- at-Wur, considering the objects for 
which the Royal Military Asylum at Chelsea was established, as set 
forth in the several royal warrants bearing dates respectively the 20th 
day of April, 1805, the 4th day of February, 1809, and the 10th day of 
October, 1811, by which the whole number of children of non-com- 
lnksioncd officers and soldiers mostly employed on foreign service was 
1.200, and that at the present time there are only 350, whether It would 
not be desirable to fill the number up to I,2u0, giving the preference to 
the children of non-commls-loned officers and soldiers now or about to 
leave on foreign service, instead of permitting them to have recourse to 
parochial relief. 
Mr. S. Herbert said the statement of the lion, gentleman was quite 
true, but part of the establishment had been abolished, and such a 
change had taken place In tho asylum that It would be impossible to 
comply with the request made by the hon. gentlcmun. 
In reply to Mr. F. Dundns, Sir J. Graham.stated generally that even' 
measures would be tuken for the protection of the Scotch and all other 
fisheries. 
Mr. M, Milnes asked the Sccrctary-at-War whether, in the new 
arrangements respecting militia Officers, It was intended to give colonels’ 
pay to lieutenant-colonels commanding, while on duty, and while In- 
curring the same expenses as full colonels. 
Mr. S. Herbert replied In the negative. 
t-ir F Kelly naked Lord John Russell, whether it is tlic intention of 
her Majesty’s Government, In the event of a declaration of war against 
Russia, to adopt any measures having reference to private property on 
Board neutral vessels, or to the searching of neutral vessels, or to the 
fitting out of pri vutcers ;[and, If so, whether by order.ln council, or by in- 
structions to the commanders of British ships, or how otherwise - and 
"hether such measures will be submitted to Parliament before they 
re determined on or adopted; whether her Majesty's Ministers intend 
> lay before tho House the convention and agreement which has been 
entered Into botwien this and the French Governments, declaring 
the objects to be attained by the war which they have undertaken con- 
jointly. and the means by which they intend to effect the same. 
Lord John Russell said that the Government required some time to 
consider the matter before they could como to any decision upon it - 
and that it wus probable that the decision of the Government would be 
embodied in an Order of Council, but the opinion of the House would 
have to be taken upon It. 
Mr. Drummond asked if tho noble lord had any objection to produce 
e treaty which had been signed between England and France relative 
the objects of the impending war. 
Lord J. Russell said no treaty had been signed— only notes had 
passed between tho two Governments on the subject, and it would not be 
proper to produce theso. 
Mr. Ewart called attention to astatement made in the public papers,
