Our Weekly Budget

OUR WEEKLY BUDGET

THE House of Commons reassembled after the Easter recess on ' llmrsday , the 5 th instant . Public business , however , does not seem to have progressed as rapidly as conld be wished . In Committee of Supply several ol

the Civil Service Estimates have been voted , not always , however , without opposition . Matters connected with the Eastern Question have occupied no little share of attention .

Our Weekly Budget

Sevei'al questions havo been asked , the inquisitors of the Government being chiefly Messrs . E . Jenkins , Rylands and W . E . Forster . A bold attempt was made on Tuesday by Mr . P . A . Taylor to abolish flogging in the navy . His motion was opposed by the

Government , and on division , the honourable member for Leicester was defeated by 164 to 102 . The announcement of the numbers was received with considerable cheering by the minority . When this question had been disposed of , Sir It . Anstruther moved , and Mr . Walpole seconded ,

a motion for a committee of inquiry into the petition of Lord Cochrane , grandson of tho late Earl of Dnndonald . The object of this petition is to induce the House of Commons to vote tho half-pay which his grandfather would have been entitled to had he not been dismissed the

Service for alleged participation in certain Stock Exchange frauds . The dismissal occurred in 1814 , and the late Earl was not restored to his place in the Navy List till 1832 , when the bitterness of political rancour had passed away , and it was known that one of our most gallant officers

had been treated most shamefully . But though restored to rank , the late Earl did not receive the half-pay he would have received in the eighteen years between 1814 and 1832 , had he been retained in the Navy . The old sea-wolf , as he was called , is long since dead and

gone , ancl now his grandson is seeking to recover these moneys , less on account of their value than because , if they are voted , the reparation made to his grandfather ' s honour will be complete . It would have been a graceful as well as a prudent act on the part of the Chancellor of the Exchequer

had he accepted the motion . Instead of this he opposed it on technical grounds , and then , feeling that the House was not with him , he , as it were , let judgment go by default , or , in other words , he declined to carry his opposition to the length of a division . This is not creditable to Sir Stafford

Northcote ' s business habits . On Wednesday afternoon , a Newspaper Registration Bill was rejected on its second reading by 149 to 69 votes . In the course of the debate Mr . Sullivan delivered a very impassioned speech against the further progress of the Bill , in the course of which

he denounced a certain infamous publication . Though its name was never even mentioned , the House very keenly appreciated the honourable gentleman ' s emphatic utterances . What may fairly be described as a scene was the consequence of this speech . When the result of the voting

had been announced , Mr . Sullivan rose , and informed Mr . Speaker that , while the division was taking place , Dr . Kenealy had approached him and called him a liar .

Having thus placed the matter in his hands , Mr . Speaker rose , and pointed out that such language had been very properly brought under his notice , and he left it to the house to determine its course of action in the matter .

Dr . Kenealy having risen and offered certain explanations , withdrew ; whereupon Mr . Forster proposed , and the Home Secretary seconded , a motion to the effect that Dr . Kenealy should withdraw the offensive expressions , and apologise to the House for having used them . Dr . Kenealy

shortly reappeared , and at once withdrew the words and tendered the required apology . On Thursday the House resolved itself into a Committee of Ways and Means , and the Chancellor of Exchequer delivered his annual financial statement , there being , as usual , a very full house to hear

it . Yesterday evening was fixed for an exciting debate on the Eastern Question , tho Marquis of Hartington having given notice on Monday of his intention to ask for certain

papers relating to the Protocol and a Russian despatch of the 19 th January . Whether the debate came off or nofc , and , if so , with what result , our readers will learn as soon as wo shall .

The Prince of Wales , we rejoice to say , has sufficiently recovered to be enabled to start on his visit to the Continent . His Royal Highness left Marlborough House on Wednesday evening for Paris and the South of France , via Folkestone and Boulogne . At the Charing-cross Station

Prince Christian , the Russian , Danish , Portuguese , and Spanish Ambassadors , with other gentlemen , were assembled to bid farewell to the Prince , who reached Folkestone shortly after 10 P . M ., and immediately went on board the steamer Victoria . It was expected he would have reached

Boulogne shortly after midnight , whence , after a brief rest , he would continue his journey to Paris . Here apartments have been engaged for him . On Thursday evening or Friday morning he was to leave for the South of France . The Princess of Wales reached Briuclisi on Sunday evening , and left at midnight on board the Royal Yacht Osborne for
