as the report was not quite r,cady.' ,
The Minister of Marine demanded adjourn.
ment. He explained that Count Palikao was
now in the Senate, and would not assist at the
proceedings, in which his advice was needed
M. Gambetti insisted that the debate should
proceed. France wanted arms. The soil of
the country 'was invaded. Necessity for in
stant action was imperative. The govern
ment should have made up its mind. (Great
sensation.)-' t-' " . . . .
Minister Jerome David requested that the
ministry have a few hours for reflection.
La liberie says all the members of the staff

' Strasburo, August 10, 9.30 P. M. All is
quiet here. Defensive measures are continued.
The House of Lords was thinly attended to-
day. During the session Lord Cairns inquired
sb to the progress made in the negotiations
for-the preservation of the neutrality of Bel
gium. He said the statement that the gov
ernment adhered to the treaty of. 1839 was
satisfactory. 'The'neutrality of Belgium was
of serious importance, and he approved the
determination of the government to maintain
It. , - . ....
arl Granville said he was gratified by the
.friendly tone of the various members, including
the noble lord who preceded him, and, la
reply, said the government bad secured the
object alluded to, and also the warmest ap
proval and support of Austria and Russia. It
was Impossible to doubt the personal honor of
the Emperor Napoleon or King William, or
that nations so forgot their obligations as to
make war on the public opinion of the world
He thought the treaty would not require the
action of Parliament, the aim desired having
been otherwise achieved. The treaty was then
read and loudly cheered.
Lords Stratford de Redclitfo and Shaites
bury spoke in terms of approval of the action
of the government, as did Lords Redesdale
and Cleveland.
At two o'clock the royal commission, the
Lord Chancellor, Earl Kimberly, Viscount
Halifax, Viscount Sydney and Marquis of Nor
mandy brought In the Queen's speech.
The Commons were Summoned and soon
appeared, with Speaker Gladstone and others
at their head. The speech was then read by
the Lord Chancellor, as follows: --
My Lords and Gentlemen: The state of public
business enables me to release jour attendance
upon Parliament. I continue to receive from
aft .foreign Powers assurances of their good
wijl and friendship; but I have witnessed with
great pain and grief, on both domestic and
foreign grounds, the recent outbreak of war
between two powerful, nations allied to this
country. My best exertions have been iisod
to avert this great calamity. .
I shall now direct constant and anxious at
tention to a strict observance of the duties and
rights of neutrality. I have cheerfully as
sented to the measures matured by your wis
dom to enlarge the powers of the executive,
not only for the discharge of international
duties, but for the prevention of acts injurious
to the Interests of this country.
I shall make every fitting endeavor to check
the operation of causes leading to the en
largement of the area of the conflict, and shall
contribute, if opportunity oner, to the restora
tion of an early and honorable peace.
I have tendered. to the belligerent Powers
treaties identical in form, which will give ad
ditional security to Belgium against the hazards
of war on her frontier. The treaty has been
signed by Count Bernstoff, for the North Ger
man Confederation, and the French envoy has
signified that he has authority to sign a cor
responding instrument on receipt of full power
therefor. Other 1'owers, parties to the treaty
of 1839, have been invited, and they are likely
to accede to the engagement.
The shocking murders in Greece have pro
duced painful impressions in Europe, and have
drawn attention to serious evils existing in
that country. My unremitting efforts will be
directed to secure a complete and searching
inquiry into the facts.
Gentlemen of the House of Commons: I
thank you for the liberal provisions made by
you for the ordinary services of the year, and
for additional supplies of men and money voted
in view of the altered circumstances of the
Continent. The revenue gives promise to meet
the new changes thus created without revising
the proper balance of revenue and expenditure.
The act for the repression of agrarian crime
and to maintain order in Ireland has answered'
its purpose thus far.' From the act regulating
the occupation of land 1 anticipate the resto
ration of peaceful relations between landlord
and tenant, and of confidence and benevolence.
Legislation duly protecting life and property I
hope is now more easy, and I rely on the
loyalty and affection of my Irish subjects.
I have been pleased to concur in the bill lor
nationai education In England as a new guar
antee for the moral and social well being of the
nation, its prosperity and power. The natu
ralization act, and that for the extradition of
criminals, tend to strengthen our friendly rela
tions with other Powers. The act regulating
enlistments for short terms I hope will in
crease the efficiency of the forces, promote
the welfare of the soldiers, and provide for the
nation a service well trained in arms and ready
on emergency to return to their standards.
I bid you farewell for the recess with an
earnest prayer that when again summoned 1
may rejoice with you on the re-establishment
of peace in Europe.
London, ' Aug. 10. The - Prince Im
perial of , France has arrived in Lon
don, and is now . at the British Legation,
in charge of W. F. Smith, the Emperor's con
fidential agent. Mr. Smith also brought with
him the Empress Eugenie's jewels and valua
bles, and the famous diamonds of the Duke of
Brunswick.
