ENGLAND. Parliamentary Debate On the Dublin Uni- Pile versity Tests Bill, ‘Liberals and Reformers in Assault on the Cabi- net Policy and Tactics—The Rights of Pri- vate Members and the Power of the ‘Ministers—Premier Gladstone on Popu- lar Education—The Ballot Bill— ‘ Religion and Prison Dis- cipline—Emigration, Bul- lion and Cotton. TELEGRAM TO THE NEW YORK HERALD. Lonpon, April 25, 1872, ‘During the session of the House of Commons to- Sight Mr. Fawcett, with the view of securing the ‘@ttention of the Speaker and members, moved an, adjournment of the sitting. ‘This afforded the honorable gentleman an oppor- tunity to make an explanation in regard to the Dublin University Tests bill, He complained of the course of the government in regard to the bill. Seasion after session a measure of this kind had been promised, but none having appeared, this bill had to be introduced by persons outside of the Ministry. The government had sup- ported the second reading of the bill, and now they wanted half of it eliminated, treating procedure with the entire billas a vote of ‘want of confidence. He wanted the House to say whether the bill should be proceeded with or cut in two. The government had taken a course which ‘was fatul to the privileges of private members, Unquestionably three-fourths of the House were favorable to the bill; but since the threat of disso- lution members had come to him saying they were in favor of the bill, but if they had to decide be- ‘tween the Dublin University Tests and the liberal @overnment they would feel constrained to throw the former overboard, Mr. Fawcett concluded with a promise that if the government would give a epecifled day to the bill In committee its promoters would be satisfied. Dr. Playfair, member for Edinburg and St. Andrew's Universities (a liberal), seconded Mr. Fawéott’s motion. He could not let the opportunity pass without expressing regret at the course of the government, which, calling itself lMberal, and making great professions of interest in popular education for years, could not understand how Uangerous it was to invite a Ministerial crisis on a question so insignificant. Right Hon. Mr. Bouverie, member for Kilmarnock (a liberal), also supported the motion. He called to mind the defeat which the government had lately suffered, and admonished the Ministers that the confidence of the House was already shaken. He ‘quoted the article in the London Daily News of Monday last, announcing, by way of threat, that the government had determined to make the Dub- lin University bill a Cabinet question. It was scan- dalous that such information should first reach the House through the medium of a newspaper. He asked Mr. Gladstone who the author of that article ‘was; whether he was a member of the Cabinet, and, if 80, who? ‘ Mr. Gladstone, in reply, complained of the strange inaccaracies into which the speakers had fallen. He admitted that the government was pledged to take up the subject of education in Ireland, and that that pledge had not yet been fulfilled, but solely from want of time. Two sessions had been given to the complaints of Ireland, and now Eng- Jand and Scotland were neglected. He denied all responsibility for the newspaper article, said he was not aware of its author and protested against being considered bound by it. As for the request of the member from Brighton to appoint a day for the con- sideration of his bill it was Impossible to grant it; he could not do as much even for government measures. A long and acrimonious debate followed. Mr. George Morgan, of Denbighshire, called the member for Brighton a political Ishmael, and advised him to go over to the conservatives. Mr. Fawcett pronounced the answer given him by the government unsatisfactory, and closed the dis. cussion by withdrawing his motion for adjourn- ment, declaring he should push the bill hereafter as & private member. The House went into committee on the Ballot bill, and several amendments proposed by the govern- mont were adopted by large majorities. The Question of Religion in Connection with Prison Discipline—Marching To- ‘wards Rome or the March of Rome? Lonpon, April 25, 1872. In the Honse of Lords to-night the Duke of Cleve- land moved the second reading of the Prisoners’ Ministers bill, the object of which is to pay Roman Catholic chaplains for their services in the prisons. Lord Cleveland said he had observed that many | sections of the country, notably Liverpool and neighborhood, were intensely Catholic, and the passage of this bill was as much a matter of policy as of justice. Lord Oranmore spoke against the measure. He declared the time had come when the pretensions of the Church of Rome should be curbed. Lords Carnarvon and Morley supported the bill as 4n accordance with the spirit of the age. Viscount Middleton confessed that when it was proposed to make a Romish priest an official person he felt bound to halt. ‘The bill was passed by a vote of 58 to 22, EMIGRATION TO NEBRASKA.

After the usual devo- tional services Brother Lowery asked advice from the Conference as to how he could collect moneys due him from several charges which he had been unable to collect. Several members addressed the Confer- ence and con. One of the speakers remarked that Tas seldom he fatled to get his salary—for faithful services money was always ready; but there was a cles of lazy preachers who sat on stools, smoked and chewed tobacco, and even told lies, instead of using the requisite energy and de- termination which the Ohorch demands.

The Late United States Court Ilegal—Mor- mondom Must Govern Itself—The Federal Officers and Counsel Quietly Snubbed— A General Jail Delivery Expected. SALT Lake Orry, April 25, 1872, The proceedings on habeas corpus, based on the personal application of Brigham Young for his dis- charge, was concluded in the Probate Court, before Judge Smith, a Mormon elder, to-day. Territorial Attorney Snow, Mormon, represented the pris- oner, while Deputy United States Attorney High and Judge Gilchrist were for the United States Mar- shal, The plea as to jurisdiction having been over- ruled yesterday by Judge Smith, to-day the counsel for the Marshal, Patrick, made a return to the writ. Snow claimed that the warrant of arrest was in- suflicient, first, Decause the jurisdiction of the uurt Was not shown; second, the writ was tssued -Y the United States Instead of the Territorial Mar- sl al The United States counsel replied that the Dis- trict Court of this Territory had a United States Marshal to be their executive ofMfcer; that the Pro- bate Covrt was bound by its decision, and {t was contended that the District Courts were cour! general jurisdiction, hence ,{risdiction in this e was to be presumed, unless it could be disproved. It was also urged that th an inferior Coart, could not review or correct the proceedings of the district cotwts, which were of reneral jurisdiction; also that tbe prisoner, being eld by United States officers under a regular pro- cess of law, the Probate Court had no power to re- lease him. The Court overruled all objections, however, and in a long, rambling, discursive Mormon-taber- nacle discourse, holding that he must take judi- clal cognizance of the matter; that all the proceedings in the United States Courts here for he past two ears) = were illegal, and which he would not hold. Absolutely the people of the Territory had the right to govern themselves. Notwithstanding Congressional enact- ments they were free and Independent; and if the Supreme Court of the United States travelled out- side of the record he certainly would not obey any of their decisions, The whole tenor of the decision showed a clear repudiation of the Congressional acts. The pris- oner was discharged, Marshal Patrick, through counsel, protesting and notifying the Court that the proceedings would be removed by certiorari to the District Court. Brigham Young was congratulated by his Mor- mon friends, Daniel H. Wells and other leaders being present, The court room was filled, but there an hag demonstration after the decision of the ‘ourt. ‘This is considered the first step in the programme of the Mormon leaders to rehabilitate the Probate Court with all its old powers of original and complete jurisdiction in all civil and criminal mat- ters. The Church would thus have complete control of the lives and property of all the inhabi- tants of the Territory. The hearing of the case will probably be had be- fore Judge Strickland next week on record. Mean- while Brigham is free and will adjourn the Con- ference on Sunday next, after its extraordinarily long session, A grand love feast is anticipated. The other cases on habeas corpus will probably result in the discharge of the prisoners at once, The decision of the United States Supreme Court has not yet arrived. A serenade is proposed to Brigham Young to-night, LIBBIE GARRABRANT ON TRIAL. The Paterson Poisoning Case—A Jury Obtained in Two Hours—Testimony of Con- stable Monks. The trial of Libble Garrabrant, charged with poisoning Ransom F. Burroughs, was resumed yesterday at Paterson before Judge Bedle. The selection of the jury occupied two hours, The fol- lowing gentlemen were empanelled:—Samuel Gregory, Charles Sigler, William Ray, Ichabod Mor- ton, Richard Van Iderstine, William H. Zelutt, James McKiernan, Halmagh Van Winkle, Joseph Johnson, William De Gray, Amos Chamberlain and Thomas Jones, The case was opened by District Attorney Hop- per. The first witness called was Constable Wil- liam Monks, who had a writ of attachment on Bur- roughs on the 26th of last December, He went to the house where Burroughs lived at half-past eight in the morning. He described the appearance of the interior of the house and the finding of the body of Burroughs. His statement as to the condition of the body and its surroundings was as follows :— I felt of him and he was dead; the body was cold asice and the face in red and blue streaks; his face and fingers were 80 marked; he sat in a rock- ing chair, leaning back towards the wall; his feet on another chair; the counterpane tucked under his fect and the back part of his head; his head leaned against the wall, a little higher than the back of the chair; the counterpane was folded over between his head and the wall, and held by the weight of his head; his feet were on top of the other chair; it was similarly tucked under his feet and hung down loosely at the sides; I felt his cheeks; they were cold—as cold as ice; I remained there but @ moment and then went and notifled Coroner Quin; I left the counterpane as I pulled it down; I left Gallagher down stairs while I went for the Coroner; the other entry door was fastened with apiece of stick and two small nails; the lounge stood in the corner; the rocking chair was against the wall, at Burronghs’ head; the other chair at his feet (position shown to the Jury in the diagram of the room) ; a slop pail stood about four feet from the body; I did not Senge the position of the body or pong | else when I went to notify the Coroner, except turning down the counterpane from his head; I went and notified Coroner Quin, who, with Mr. Hand rode down; I ran down and got there nearly as quick as they did; Gallagher stood at the door; I went 7 in the room with the Coro- ner and Mr. Hand; did not notice that any change had been made in the position of things; I then found the door leading into the other room had been locked; there was a brass key in it; we found a key also on the stairs ae to the third story; we could find none of the keys to unlock the door; we found these keys through the house; there were five keys altogether, The hasp of the lock had been broken open and it was fastened in with two nails in place of the original screws; the bolt was in the hasp and out of the locks; the hasp was fastened with two nails, and a piece of wood had been fastened between to drive the nails in; could have unlocked the door with a proper key; I removed some goods out that day, under my attachment; on the mantelpiece we found a small glass bottle, which the Coroner said contained poison; do not know who took this; at six o’clock that day I saw Libbie Garrabrant and Rachel Spear riding down the river towards the race course. I shouted to them to “come here.’ I wanted to see them; they came up to the door; I told Libbie that the Coroner and the City Marshal were looking for her, and she had bet- ter remain there until they returned. They tied the horse to a tree and_ both came up stairs; [ told them Burroughs was dead; don’t remember what they replied; I asked them to come in and look at him; Rachel Spear looked at pane ee but Libbie said she could not; she did not ike to look at dead people, she said. They stayed there till about four o'clock, when they went off together, in the phe ony ; they said they were going to Paramus then; Libbie Said 40; did not notice which way they went} 1 told Libbie to meet Coroner Quin at seven o'clock at the Recorder's office; she said she would, Lib- ble said “It was very strange” (referring to Bur- roughs’ death). Could not say who she said this to; there were @ great many people in and out the whole day; I got the front hail door key from Lib- bie; I think [f did; she gave me a key anyhow. When Libbie left to go to Paramus she said she was roing to “Wink Bogert's’’ (her lover's) to settle up for that set of bedroom furniture. The case was then adjourned till to-day, THE WEATHER. <iachanarinenthinsnsnas WAR DEPARTMENT, | OFFICE OF THE CHIEF SIGNAL OFFICER, WASHINGTON, D. C., April 26—1 A. M. Probabilities.

Wasninaron, April 25, 1872. Secretary Fish’s Plan for Settlement of the Treaty Question—The Presidents Views—The Direct Damage Lobby’s Arguments. The immediate basis of settlement of the troubles in regard to consequential damages, which it ts understood is now under consideration ,on both sides of the Atlantic, attract a good deal of atten- tion here, and is generally laughed at by the demo- crats as puerile. It will fall to give satisfaction to @ strong minority, which ts ready upon every opportunity to arraign the foreign policy of the administration, and it is known, besides, that this panacea of the Secretary of State is far from proving acceptable to the President. If he consents to it it will be only in the interests of peace. He still clings to his original opfnion, that the question of consequential damages is a question to be determined only by the arbitrators at Geneva, and, while no award is expected, he thinks this government ought to insist upon the question being disposed of by the only tribunal which is competent to settle it. It is urged by the adherents of the Secretary of State and the lobby interested in the withdrawal of our claims for consequential damages that their clients may be speedily paid for direct losses; that the settlement of the point in dispute between the two governments Is of great interest to the United States, because it will settle all doubt regarding the liability of this government for the payment of claims arising from injuries done to British sub- | WASHINGTON. 7 Ukely to create @ little breeze that may materially disturb the heretofore peaceful position of Mr. Ores- well in the Cabinet. It seems that the bottom of Mr. Creswell'’s opposition to Mr. Col- fax came from his desire to get the com- plimentary vote of Maryland for Vice President himself, which could not be done uniess Colfax was beaten. So determined were Mr. Cres- well's friends to beat Colfax and fx a delegation for Wilson that they endeavored, when they were beaten in the primary elections, to break up the Convention; but they failed in this after @ lively fight, and a full delegation for Grant and Col- fax was elected, he faction who opposed Mr. Creswell m Maryland now propose to ‘go for him’? in a lively style, and endeavor to get his removal from the Cabinet, upon the ground that he is using js patronage in the State to further his own pur- posed, ‘The clique who are to engineer the attack upon him of course expect Mr. Colfax's aid, and they may make It lively for Mr. Creswell, but it is | nardly probable that they will be able to do him ‘ rm. janes was so bitter that Banks turned his back -es after adjournment.

What- os tle In the Navatin) Vusual, the men jects during the Fentan raids in Canada, Indemnity for Injury to a British Ship. The Committee on Foreign Affairs to-day agreed to report the bill appropriating $3,500 to indemnify T. H. Holderness, a British subject, for damage to his ship, the Duke of Edinboro, occasioned by col- lision with the ship General McPherson, in the Bay of San Francisco, The Morrill Southern Claim A ment in the Senate—Cole on gent’s Personality. The Senate spent nearly all day again to-day upon the amendment to the Deficiency Appropria- tion bill, offered by Mr. Morrill, which forbids pay- ments to claimants who have heretofore obtained judgment before the Court of Claims, There were several amendments added to Mr. Morrill’s propo- sition, but none that do away with {ts perniclous or unjust effect. No one believes that the House will ratify the action of the Senate in this regard, as that body would have undoubtedly repudiated so unjust a provision had anything like a full vote been had, The vote stood 22 for to 17 against the amendment, only one more than a quorum voting. Mr. Cole undertook to edify the Senate with a personal explanation in relation to an assault made upon him in the House by Mr. Sargent in that gentleman's discussion of the Goat Island bill, In violation of the rules Mr. Sargent used disrespect- ful language toward Mr, Cole, and, it is asserted, inserted in the Globe an extract from a speech of | Mr. Cole in the Senato upon the right of actual set- tlers to that island which he did not use in the debate. The Senate refused, however, to hear Mr. Cole’s grievances until the Goat Island job comes up | for action, Itis reported that the President will veto the Goat Island bill if it is passed by the Senate, owing to the fact the republican party in California is hostile to the measure, Dr. Houard’s Case Before the House for a Whole Day—Banks Defying Dawes. The case of Dr. Houard occupied the entire day | in the House, and a vote was not reached. The | democrats who spoke to-day took occasion in favor- | ing the resolution to attack the administration. Wood, of New York, thought it was clearly proved that Dr. Houard was a citizen of the United States, | and as such entitled toour protection, He critt- cised the action of the administration in neglecting to take steps to have his wrongs righted, which, he thought, ought to have been done long ago. Mr. W. R. Roberts followed Mr. Wood in an eloquent | nd= Sar- appeal for a new policy in regard to | the protection of American citizenship abroad. In conclusion Colonel Roberts advocated the recognition of Cuban belligerency. He had to deal more with sentiment, but not less with logic, than Mr, Willard, who followed with an argument against the validity of Dr. Houard’s claim to pro- tection from the government on the ground of American citizenship. He went on to show that Dr. Houard’s father was a Frenchman, who emi- grated to Cuba from France. His argument was to the effect that the Doctor was a Cuban by birth, and after receiving his educa- tion in Philadelphia had returned to that | island, where he afterward resided, receiving his medical diploma, and practising his profession for | thirty years in that country. He argued that Dr. Houard having performed none of the duties of American citizenship, could claim none of its privileges. Mr. Willard claimed that In adopting the policy proposed we go back on the doctrine of expatriation, to establish which we went to war with England in 1812. Mr. Bingham said that a declaration was neces- sary by the laws of Spain fora naturalized citizen of any other country to become a citizen of Spain. | He took the ground that Dr. Houard was clearly a | citizen of the United States if he had committed no | act by which he had forfeited the right of eltizen- ship, and was entitled to protection. He claimed | that the seventh article of the treaty of 1795 had | been violated to bring this point forward, At five | o’clock General Banks announced his intention to cal, | the previous question, which was the signal for another struggle on the part of the Ways and | Means Committee for the floor to-morrow, At this point General Butler asked for ten minutes to be heard in reply to the attacks which had been made upon the administration, and proceeded to argue that its course had been consistent, and the resolu. | tion proposed by the House was impertinent Inter: | ference. He addresssed himself to the remarks made by Messrs. Wood and Voorhees, character- contrast between their zeal for a foreign citi« zen and those within their own border, when seeking protection for life and liberty. At the conclusion of General Butler's remarks, Mr. Dawes appealed tothe Chairman of the Com- mittee on Foreign Affairs not to allow the debate to go on another day, but to finish it then. He said the House had ordered the Tarif bill to be taken up on Tuesday; that he had not been able to get it before the House, and unless to-morrow could be had for that purpose, Tuesday again would come before anything was done upon the question of such importance to the people. Gene- ral Banks replied they could not get the members out in the evening, and declined to go on with it.
