Mr. Gladstone and the Alabama Claims, . LONDON, July 8—Midnight, In the House of Commons to-night, Mr. Gladstone, after acknowledging the courtesy with which Sir Henry Bulwer had so often postponed his motion in regard to the Alabama ciaims, said, in again appear- ing to put of, he felt it his duty ‘to allege some reason for his action, as it would amount to a definite postponement of the question for this year. He assured the House that it was the opinion of the government that it would best pro- mote the interests involved in this great question by abstaining from asking the House to discuss it at the present moment. It had always been the custom of Parliament to abstain from discussing questions whiig under negotiation, Although tt could hardly be Baid that the claims were now under negotiation, and it might be considered that the rejection of the convention by the Senate of the Unite States had bronght them to @ definite point; still he had reason to believe that the government of the United States did not regard the question as definitely dropped on that account; on the contrary, they con- sidered it was better an interval should occur, on ac- count of the state of public opinion im America, be- fore negotiations are resumed. Under these circum- stances her Majesty’s government were inclined to concur in the views of the American government, He pointed out that the question had not been dis- cussed in either branch of the American Legivlature. Having regard to these ciroumstances the govern- Ment was anxious that nothing should occur to impede the resumption of the negotiation. There- fore he requested the postponement of the motion on paper for to-morrow. Sir Henry Bulwer replied that he felt it his duty to accede to Mr. Gladstone's request; but he did so with great reluctance. He thought discussion would do no harm, but rather strengthen the pal- icy of the government, He felt convinced that if the relations of Great Britain and the United States were allowed to continue in their present state, both countries would have reason to repent. He did not attach much importance to Senator Sumner’s speech, or to the rejection of the treaty, but felt the great importance of the fact that the exaggerated pretensions brought forward were no\ abandoned, but merely suspended, and might be brought forward any time when it would be equally dishonorable not to grant and disastrous to refuse them. If the feeling of the House was against the motion he would not bring it forwara. In conclusion he threw the whole responsibility on the government. Probable Conflict Between the Lords and the Commons Over the Irish Church Bill. Lonpon, July 8, 1869, ‘The action of the House of Lords on the Irish Church bill has created intense excitement. Messrs. Bright and Gladstone are daily in receipt of letters offering a recommencement of the Retorm League Agitation, but they discountenance the movement at Present, and express a beiief that the Lords will reeede at the last moment from offering any marked Ppposition to the expressed will of the people, though # compromise is effected in the postpone- ment of the date of disestablishment to January, 1872, by paying a lump sum o/ hat a million pounds @teriing in lieu of the private donations, and by al- lowing the life interest to be computed at fourteen years’ purchase, - The folowing letter has been circulated privately mong weil Known progressives, in view of the ‘probable failure of the passage of the Irish Church bill, tnrough the opposition of the House of Lords:— Srr—In view of the probable failure of the Irish Church bill, through the opposition of the House of rds to the gov rnmeut, the Commons and the wountry, you are requested to inform the Secretary of the Reform League whether you are williag that our name shall be used, in the event of a defeat of Jhat measure, to a public cali for mass meetings to Consider the ‘best constitutional method of geting rid of this obstruction to iegisiation, based upon the expressed will of the people, Press Comments on the Irish Church Bill.

WASHINGTON, July 8, 1869, ‘The following has been received from Richmond :— General Canby to-day expressed the opinion that he election on Tuesday was the fairest ever wit- nessed. Upon his arrival at a quarter past eleven A. M., Governor Gilbert 0. Walker was met at the depot by @ large concourse of people. AS’ he stepped from the cars he was seized by the crowd and borne on their shoulders to a coach covered with the na- tional and State fings which was in waiting for him, A procession, which consisted of 100 vehicles, many of them decorated with the na- tional flag and filled with the most prom- inent white and colored citizens, moved off, The strects along the route of march were biocked with ® living mass of people, and the windows of the houses were filied with ladies waving handkerchiefs and banners, and wio were poaring forth words of praise and encouragement.

You have made concessions unparalleled in his ory. 1 think you will be plessed for doing tis, and my prayer is, fellow citizens, that you will be.

In Rome's paiiniest days her most honored citizens were not the recipients of an oration more fraught with meaning, for the results of our victory will ex- tend far into the future, and your children and mine ‘will bless the sacrifices by which in our line of duty that victory has been achieved. Aeading merchant here to-day told me that now he would go to New York and order his fall stock of goods. Ha: Wells been elected the trade of New York would have fallen off 100 per cent. There is joy to-day not only in Virginia, but in the whole Union. The result of Tuesday ts unprecedented. Additional returns received to-night show that Walker's majority will probably be 50,000. In many of the white counties west of the mountains, where Walker gets 400 or 400, Wells only gets three or four votes, Governor Walker leaves for New York to- night and Governor Wells leaves for the same point to-morrow to visit'a son there.

Grand Farewell Reception—A Brilliant Spec- tacle on Board—Reunion of French and American {OfMicers—Amity and Friendship— Ho! for Portugal and France. it was a gala day on the Jean Bart—a name that will be handed down the tide of ages with esteem and admiration, Marked by that extreme polite- ness which, in whatever clime or country, ever characterizes the sparkling people of lovely France, the reception on board the Jean Bart yesterday was but another significant demonstration of the warmth and sincerity with which their friendly adieus are ever rendered, The stable schoolstip will shortly sail for Lisbon, but, ere she has lett our welcome shores, her gailant commander and no le43 generous officers were determined not to say farewel: without giving .a satisfactory recognition of the friendship exhibited to them ia American waters. And while their ovation was perhaps unneeded—for no men-of- war are more welcome to our shores than those of France—the circumstance indicates a thorough ap- preciation of American warmth of feeling exhibited to those on board. Apart from that, however, the reception was @ brilliant affair, not only adding to the hospitable reputation of the officers of ‘the Jean Bart and to their urbanity and character of proverbial good nature, but likewise signally demon- strating their appreciativeaess of the affection of thei Awerican frends, whose names, by the way, are legion. ‘the Jean Bart 18 one of those great Frenchy schoolships in which young men anxious to follow the s:a a8 @ profession receive all the imsiruc- tuuon required. It should be observed, moreover, that the Jean Bart, unlixe her predecessor of the ame, i an extremely lucky craft in paving on board as handsome a congregation of midshipmen as ever donned the garb, With few exceptions they are tall ana handsome feliows, with narrow waisis and gentle bearing; but there is yet a kindling fire tn every eye that craves for early sea fight or promo- tion. Such @ feeling will surely make the seaman, and it is not idle to prognosticate that the scholars on board the Jean Bart will yet attain some naval honors. But che gallant old war ship will shortly quit our shores ior Lisbon and finaliy for Brest. Stili before she goes her officers have left a remini.cence not easily to be forgotten by those on board her yesverday. High and dry,‘as the saying is, in one of the docks of the Navy Yard, the Jean Mart swod up right steadily, regardless of external views, but scrupulous to @ needie’s point of her interior ar- rangements. The latter were brignt and shining a3 the glittering stands of chassepois that adorned aud strengthened the ship in every quarter. In face, the ornamentation of the vessel, in a festive pot of vie Ww, Was most agreeable and picture-que, neat the usual covering of the quarter deck vu not days a delicate and variegated umbiage heiped to mouiy the rays of a burning sun, While amidships, whica throughout was the sceue of the briiiiant display, bunoung, neatly interwoven, served as a handsome and appropriate shade. Suortly alter one o’cioch the guests began to arrive, aud were most cordially received by the officers on board, An excelent band, under the direction of Mr. reter ali, of tue Vermont, was statloued on tae quarter deck, and opened ita proceedings with the ‘“‘ivoet and Peasant.” Tue commander of the Jean Bart, Captain Mottez, and the foliowing oflicers, received their numerous Le ‘Mutret de Gagnac, M. M. Borius, Desnouy, uis Basset, Maire, Duinont, Menard, Wey, Gen- fentenyo de Trenvequen, Gentil, Lot, Drovara de Leze, Marion, Fall, Mecha, Barriecre, Newton, Godefroy, Chaule and others. Mingied with tne in- vigoraung breeze that piayed joyfully abou: tne ves- sel, the sweet strains from the quarterdeck were most stimulating; aud even before we company had arrived tn full force dancing was commenced upon the polished deck wiih a vigor tnat betokened heartiness and a jong delay. Several oilicers of the United Scates service cordially ming.ed in the bri- liant throng; ana the appearance of tne scene, evea at the start, was pleasant in the extreme. There were present, among @ brilliant as semblage, Admiral Godon, Admiral Stringham, Capitan and Mrs. Cushman, United States Navy; Lieutenant Breese, United mtates Ma- rines, @ dashing young olicer of gadant mien; Captia Creiguton, Uniteu states Navy; vr. Palmer, United States Navy; Colonel Brooine and family, United States Marines; Giuef Engineer Sewell, diss. and Miss Sewell, Colimander braine, United Staves Navy, and ladies; Captain Nicholson, United States Nayy, and lady; Cqynmander Bennam and ladies, Ensigu Hunter and lady, Captain A. Cushinan, United States Navy, aud Mrs, Cushman; Captain Aliny, Un.ted Seates Navy, Mrs, and Miss Almy; Ensign Meeger and ladies, Mme. Wafort, Mr. and ars. Henry Westheimer, Mr. C, H. Renner, Mme.

Belknap, and others, which even the spacious limits of the deck could scarceiy con- tain. It after two o'ciock before the Terpsichorean festivities were roperiy com- menced. Then, indeed, ensu a brilliant exhibition, not less remarkable for its compieve agreeablenesg than for .the thorough sincerity and heartiness which surrounded it. Never did good naval officers more cordially extend the hand of friendship than those of the Jean Bart to all their guests. Unfortunately no blue Waves dashed against the staneh old ribs of the man-of-war, but even had they foamed against her in all their grandeur a more ntle breeze could not have lent charm to more jovous sete, It is, perhaps, almost neediess to debate upon the transient pleasures of the day, of the brilliant vaises or more temperate quadriiles, beheld by the way, by @ seaof iaces—the faces of inte! mt, neat and able French seamen, whose bronze color denoted their hardihood and lithe form their elasticity. But 1¢ is necessary to say a word of the complete harmony which ae are Without question a more elegant display has not occurred on board @ man-ol-war im this harbor for some time, and the reception, while it reflected the greatest credit upon the oificers of the Jean Bart, was in every respect worcmy the circumstances under which it took place. it is almost unnecessary to add that the brilliant effort yesterday to reciprocate the courtesies extended to the officers of the Jean Bart was most heartily appreciated.
