SPIRIT OF- THE DAILY PRESS. LOCAL GOVERNMENT AND TAXATION. The debate in the House of Commons on Monday night, the l"imC8 notes, was chiefly remarkable from the evident desire of all parties to avoid coming to the point. Mr. Fawcett's speech gave the freshmen of the present House flome notion of the power of memory he displayed during 1:>te Parliament in discussing an Indian Budget. Facts lid. figures, quotations from returns, ard quotations from speeches were given one after the other with invariable correctness, and with much greater ease than is commonly by members who have a bundle of extracts by 'theni to which they can refer and which they can read at proper moment. It was a striking exhibition. But what s the result of it? One result he rIm. manage to -fcrins about, which we could not help foreseeing as a pos- sible and dangerous consequence of his motion. While ,t no support from the Ministerial side of the House, ought to ahead the discontent that had been latent .benches. If there is a difference of opinion in the iet on the subject of increasing the subventions In I >oal rcvtes, tb« advocates of an increase will, aeri ^th froiu the debate: tliey will point toitasprp^"? n this way, an J in this way only, that their J e kept together.

It is them that the increase of local taxation has in most hea.ly, and it is they that Mr. Goschen would 3 specialty *rief» to relieve. But such a reform would suit the views of Mr. Disraeli's followers. They would ier trust in subventions from the Consolidated Fund, iuse the land wilt thus be the first to profit; and hence, hey take short sighted views of .self-interest, they do 0 right to distrust Mr. Fawcett s eagerness to reform 1 taxation. irotw'thstanduig^ the hesitation of the -eninieuf, and the glenderdegree in which it has yet L illed itti promises, they that they can wring :er terms from Mr. Pisraelt than tliey could from Mr. dstone and that i" the £ eau"ni ^ey opposed a mo- i with the verbal terDls ° ™ *ca *bey must have agreed. MYSTERIOUS POLICY OF THE GOVERNMENT. Ir. Fawcett's w*s, 111 every respect, the Daily News con- <ls, a rem.ir u it had some qualities which I bably will cfise it to e legaided as the ablest he has delivered in the Commons. It was a piece of et, steady, convincing argument. It wore away-we think of no better way of describing its effect—the ole case which fjcates^ °f the Government might supposed to ul' Fawcett shewed that the ire system of local taxation is a mass cf inconsistency I injustice, and that the present Government have not even professed any intention of setting it right. aker after speaker on the Government side >ngthened 5/. awcetts arguments unoon- )usly detailing new instances of the anomalies, the ects, the inequalities, the all but intolerable absurdities I grievances of the present system. It hardly needed elaborate argument ot Mr. btansfeld to shew how soon strong Government had taken refuge in the excuses t only plead for weakness, and found that the compre- isive scheme which they proclaimed indispensable when iy were out of office ought to be considered impossible en they had got in. in the meantime we, like Lord Vtington, must be content with the assurance that the Vernment has a policy, though "apparently only a xmall J. What it is, it was not given the House to know :h any precision ana the division, in which the Minis- had a majority of seventy-four, illustrated the triumph political faith over reason. A VINDICATION OF ITS POLICY. the discussion raised by Mr. Fawcett will, the Standard raks, prove useful, since it afforded the Government an tortunity to declare its policy, and set itself right with lie impatient supporters who were beginning to grumble !ause their leaders were not travelling rapidly enough their desires. We are willing to believe that in bring- forward his amendment Mr. Fawcett was actuated by 1 worthiest motives. Still we cannot doubt that his xiety to jifomote local taxation reform was whetted the hope of embarrassing the Government. By ) exclusive use which he made of the reports 4 speeches of the Local Taxation Committee of ) Central Chamber of Agriculture lie betrayed desire to div»<lo the Conservative party, and to Uv a portion ot it into opposition to the Ministry s pUrpnSe was toiiea, and served, indeed, only to afford "PI)OI*tllr. tity.to the members below the gangway to give )',f of their disciphne, and to the Government to explain <1 justify their policy. The whips of the Opposition had ;nted the <leba as one of the first importance; and it is II known tl)» S eat hopes were entertained of seducing th LiUeia y some of those Conservatives who had I'ashly l'Je< ? *s^ves to tlie opinion that no Govern- int which di at once satisfy etery claim of those >o feel "Sorl ,orty tl'e present system of local taxation s worth si 11 • Jhe result was a most decisive Mority for the ^Daent and conclusive vindication of policy. v|° A ^COMPLICATED QUESTION.

GENERAL CHABACTEB OF THE debate V The interest which was manifested m tu by strangers" was, the Morning Advertiser pojn 'ery marked contrast to that shewn by the House. ^llenea were full to repletion, whilst for hours tog £ er -here werenotmorethanfive-and-twentymembersinvie ;he mace. Yet there is really no point of public policy^1?11 touches more ))ear]y the pOC'kets of the people than doestm?. government does not say these bills are sufficient or final.

On the ^hole, Mr. made the best speech of the evening; and 5ii' George Jenkinson"drove the nail home" in telling 'he Government that the debate must have taught lhera much, as it certainly ought; but then it does not follow J that the Government should'be forced to legislate when it candidly confesses that, in order to form its policy, it needs the sanction of Parliament to these preparatory bills, on which it also asks the advice 'nd experience of a select committee. /Mr. Sclater-Booth'i on behalf of the Government was sufficient. The k PiU is one of tentative financial regulation, and is not '^tended to be 1a ^nlfilmeni the rdsdfreft of the Government, tiy whi511 sun hold tli-einsefrda- bound, and which they will redeem as soon as hey can themselves h We vield to none, says the Times, in our abhorrence of cruelty in all its forms and varieties but we hold, when experiments up animals aie calcu,a,ed to prolong human life or to lighten the load of hunian misery, that their nerformanoe by competent persons v; not only not culp fj v,ut, that, in the recent emphatic worJs of Sir Thomas Watson, it may eve ecome a P°sitiye duty.

There are many others, how- ever, who are prepared to assent to a more reasonable view of the case, who admit—it may be sorrowfully, but who still a(ililit- that experiments must be performed, under certain limitations and restrictions, and whose on;y desire it is that these limitations and refitrictions should be such as are reasonable and right, calculated, on the one hand, to afford to the brute creation all proper protection, and yet not calculated to impede inquiries which, in the best and truest sense, are works of mercy to mankind. The present agitation, however excellent in its intentions, is largely based upon a misconception of facts. It is satisfactory to know that the Government has determined to recommend the appointment of a small Royal Coin- mission to take evidence on the subject, and thus to avoid the dangers of hasty legislation.
._----A BISHOP ON HONESTY.
A BISHOP ON HONESTY. Preaching at East Crompton Church, the Bishop of Man- chester, in the course of his sermon, urged that in order to secure a godly life the solid foundation of a Christian cha- racter was requisite, and among the virtues necessary for such foundation was honesty. He asked what. was honesty ? Would people call him honest if lie got into a pulpit and preached another man's sermon as his own? If he stated frankly, that it was not his own, they would not call him dishonest; but if he delivered it as his own, lie could not bo called honest. He was paid for doing a certain kind of work, and supposing he was lazy and scamped, and left his diocese to take care of itself, would people call him an honest man? They would say, "There is the Bishop taking 94,200 a year out of his (iiccese, and what (loes lie do for it ? He is pleasuring down in the South of England." If he offered an article as genuine and it was not" genuine, he could not be called honest; and if he was paid for work and did not do it, no matter in what department of life, lie could not he called honest. Neither could those who gave unjust weight or measure be called honest.
CORPORATION OF FOREIGN BONDHOLDERS.
CORPORATION OF FOREIGN BOND- HOLDERS. Yesterday morning Mr. Glasse, Q. C., representing Mr. A. Saunders, suing on behalf of himself and all other holders of overdue Spanish coupons, applied ex-parte before Vice- Chancellor Malins to restrain the Corporation of Foreign Bondholders and others from parting with or surrendering certain pagares (bonds) of the Rio Tinto Silver Mining Company, without the consent of the plaintiff and those on behalf of whom he sued. The bill filed in the suit alleged that an agreement was entered into in the month of January last under which the Spanish Government de. posited eight nagarea of the value of £ 385,000 in the Bank of England in the name of the Corporation of Foreign Bondholders and others, the defendants in the suit, to meet the interest on Spanish coupons. It was now alleged that the defendants intended to realise the bonds and apply the money for different purposes of a specula- tive character, and in order to prevent that being done a bill in Chancery was filed by the plaintiff, and in order to prevent the defendants from disposing of the pagares between this and next seal day (Thursday), the present ex-parte application was made for leave to serve short notice of motion and a copy of the bill on the defendant, and the Vice-Chancellor gave leave for to-day (Wed- nesday). —=========—
THE JEFFERSON BORDEN MUTINY.
THE JEFFERSON BORDEN MUTINY. At Bow-street, London, yesterday, William Smith, aged 24 seaman on board the Jefferson Borden, who has been repeatedly refei'red to as the man in charge of the "wheel, having sufficiently recovered, and his place at the hospital being required, was charged before Sir Thomas Henry with murder. The captain s evidence was rekd over, and the prisoner expressed a wish to make a statement.— Tlie prisoner said My story is simply this. My name is William^ Smitn, and I have served seven years of seaman's life- I shipped on board the Jefferson Borden, New Orleans, on March 1, and went on board the 2nd March, and proceeded down the river the 3rd March. A summons came aboard while we were at the Government Wharf to arrest the captain for previously ill- treating the crew. e then proceeded down the river without any jib-boom or head sail. The next morning it was very foggy- were placed at anchor and still the jib-boom was not rigged out. While we were rigging out the jib-k??13? a. row was commenced with the captain and chief officers. I told Miller, the Russian sailor, not to row I there was occasion. He however continued rowing. A few days after a storm came up and the boat commenced to leak very much. Some of the casks of water were lost. The captain had words with Miller. The captain told me while I was at the wheel he would putus on I told him I did not wish to have any trouble with anybody. He said I was a liar and ready to row with the rest of us. I had never spoken to the captain or officers. It continued stormy, and then we got a. couple of fine days, and then Miller commenced again. We were setting up the rigging at the time, and were going to take the anchors on board. Tlie captain sanl if Miller did not shut up he would put a hole through him. He said I had thrown things over- board, and I he would cane me before I got to London. One day, when it was fine, Miller had gone up the main- topmast and we were on board. Miller said he could not hold on. The captain pulled him up once or twice and led him down again, The captain ordered him to come down. Some handspikes were got, and we put Miller in irons, and lashed him up to the ligging. Jacques and Lock said some- thins:, and the captain said lie would do the same to them. Tlie captain and the mate went af, the wheel and struck John. The captain asked me how I should like to be strung up in the same way. I 0* with my work. Miller was kept in irons 48 hours. They put him S the pump, and into the lazarette at night. The next morning (Sunday) the ca?k^L(1 Miller up and called us all aft. He then fetchedjut; a log and read it to us, and said if we would sigj relieve Miller out of irons, which we did. He then told him to go forward to his work. The captain and the two mates kept up their abuse all the afternoon. W e had nothing but salt and brackish water to drink and very little to eat. The meat was so bad we could not eat it. I com. plained of it, and he told me it was good enough for me. I told him I had done nothing to be treated in this way, and he said I must suffer the same. One morning I was at the wheel, the boy said I had bten licking him) and captain then struct me with a rope end and .with nw a void him not to strike me at the wheel, blithe said he would. One morning when the breakfast came in I shoved the meat to the mate. I asked him if it was fit grub S™e to a man. me was good enough for me, and he did not care whether I had any breakfast or not. He told meto «° to the forecastle, or he would hit me with an axe. We were kept on board thirty-six hours I-never eat a mouthful. TI ept on board thirty-six hours I-never eat a mouthful. The^mates came out of the oabm. Their breaths smelt of liquor. One day the second mate sent me up to rfeA +v!e which was swinging from one side of the vessel to the other. I told him I could not reef it off He told me to stop there till I did. I reached it after*a long whl!e"K pother occasion when I was knocked on board by tne boom, the captain, using a filthy expression, told me.to ro> and get» dta} o{ b^ndy and — myself. He d -f T nothing the matter with me, and 11 t come on deck, he would give me 8<nf-nfi JLj T°uld make me worse. He then gave me wedi s d continued his ill-treatment, threatening to take my me on the l7atcih for 36 or 46 hours at » 8 1(| ^ont1 having anything to eat. Miller said sWed revenge on such people.

-------_----_..--FATAL COLLISION…
FATAL COLLISION IN THE CHINA SEAS. The papers received by the China mail bring particulars of the collision whicli occurred on Sunday, the 4th of April, between the China Coast Steam Navigation Com- pany's steamer Ocean and the China Merchant Steam Navigation Compan fs steamer Fusing, on the voyage be- tween Shanghai and Tientsin. The Fusing sank imme- diately, nml fifty-hve of those on board were drowned. The North Chwa Daily News says :-The weather was calm at the time, but a dense fog prevailed, and the sea was rising in a heavy tliDUgh unbroken swell. Tlie Fusing was going almost dead slow, when suddenly the sound of a steam-whistle was heard, and almost as suddenly was seen the form of a large vessel bearing dead on to 'her. The onler was given to back astern at full speed, but before the effect of the engines could be well felt the stronger vessel struck the Fusing just about the fore-rigging, and such was tlie force of the blow that the whole of her fore com- partment was cut comp.etely asunder. The scene that then ensued was dreadtul. The Fusing had about 125 people including passengers on board, and almost before a boat could be launched she went down head foremost.Many of the people were in the forecastle, some asleep, and as she dived into the sea some 01 the poor people were seen run- ning along her decks to avoid the waters that were rushing after them. Fortunately, at least in this instance, she had some deck cargo, consisting of spars of wood, and these floating as she sank were tlie means of salvation to a goodly number of the people on board. Captain Andrews managed to Set °°e boat afloat, and into this were crammed of the passengers and crew; and to tlie honour of those on board the Ocean be it said, that vessel stopped her engines, stood by, and, lowering her boals. saved about thuty more of the unfortunates, who by this time were either floating in the water or on the spars washed from the deck of the Fusing. Still there were many whom it was impossible to save. Some were either killed the forecastle by being crushed by the k?*s._ Ocean, or were so dreadfully injured as to be in Pahle of doing any- thing to save themselves, and in this manner some seventy or more found a watery grave. The Ocean herself re- ceived such severe injury that, had t weather been in any degree rough, it is more than probable she would not have lived to reach port. As lfc hole was knocked in her bows, and her compartment was filled with water, but luckily the bulkhead stood firm, and so another catastrophe was Prevented. The sad affair happened about 120 miles north of Shaweishan Island. Favoured with continued calm weather, the Ocean reached Woosung before the gale1 on Monday night came on, or it is believed by those on board, that she must have sunk; and therefore the tale of disaster could not have been told.
ITHE PUBLIC WORSHIP FACILITIES…
THE PUBLIC WORSHIP FACILITIES BILL. The Select Committee appointed by the House of Com- mons to consider the provisions of this bi reassembled after the holidays yesterday, Mr. Salt £ tIle cbaLr.-The Rev. W. Drew was the 1st witness. saia: I am in. cun.bent of a conventional district near on, and my idea of a conventional district" is tlia clergyman is placed in a portion of an existing e I ■^nsh, and left to perform nearly the whole of the d PPertammg to the cure of souls, but witheut any leg? P. except as a minister officiating in a particular;district^n_ot legally secured tb him. The area of my district was settled by a commission issued by the bishop aud sa by the patron of another church. The arrangem by which I was appointed was carried out with the S!in, 6 two late Bishops of Winchester, and ratified y present bishop. I have found recently that J P 10n is an insecure one, for a new vicar J? ™ the mother parish would have the power g 10 six weeks' notice and compel me to ^ve y net. The Chairman Have you read the bill before the corn- mittee ?—Witness: I have, and without 1 yself to the details, I am perfectly convinced fif measure is absolutely necessary for the the Church at large, especially in large overg P The difficulty of working these parishes M. »hfl Church Building Act is so cumbersome, tha holly impossible, especially in the South of • 'jtlxv 8 and vicars of large parishes either to do their 7 hem- selves or provide clergymen to do » Do you think a bill such as this would interfere .the rights of incumbents and the rights of patrons.. *"n* that in these days we hear too much of the rights o c^m. bents and patrons. I do not think this bill would 1 terfere with the real rights of incumbents, because it would only affect them where they were unable or unwilling to pro- vide a proper amount of church accommodation m their parishes. I don't think parishes should be left to starve, spiritually speaking, rather than that certain supposed rights should be interfered with. As ior patrons, 1 think they overstrain their rights, and often forget that the patronage of a living iff a solemn trust, and not to be fooked upon as a piece of property that could be damaged In value by the presence of another church when it was wanted.-Do you nor, think that the want of such a mea- «ure as this has been the cause of a great deal #f Dissent ? v-Yes • I think if the Church had by such a measure been .:ble t; cope with its difficulties Dissent would not have tiade the advance it has made in some pladea.-Anotber Ron. Member: It has been said that where the Church j„ f'a *0 be very active Dissent is active also. Is that your experience ^Witness No; the contrary.- Mr Holt • Do you think it desirable or undesirable to in- sert in clause 2 words to the effect that a bishop should licence a clergyman nominated by application of 25 parishioners '-Witness: That would give the nomina- tion to 25 parishioners, and not to the bishop. I would rather see it left to tlie bishop to reiect or accept the nominee of the 25.—In answer to further questions, witness stated that in the matter of complaints being made to thojcommission to be annnintad under the bill, if they were frivolous they would aot be listened to, in all probability but if they were real 2nd worthy of having attention paid to them the com- mission would send them in to the bishop.—Mr. "Whit- well • Want of more religious services you would not call a frivolous complaint ?—Certainly not.— But if for a change simply to satisfy a variety of tastes yon would entertain some doubt as to whether the application was not frivolous ?—That would depend upon the extent to which it went. Some congregations object to the chant- fnKof the psaims.but those complaints, if they made them, it should look upon as' frivolous. On the whole I think Ibis bill would be extremely useful to satisfy spiritual wants • but, if applied in any other way I think it would lead to'evils. The committee adjourned shortly before foui O'clock. —

CHAPMAN, Government Photographer to the County of Glamorgan by I Appointment, 235, HIGH-STREET, SWANSEA, Respectfully invites comparison of his work, with any others productions. The specialities offered by Mr Caspman are Taste, Art, Style of Finish, Duiability, and Faithfulness of Portraiture. It is often remarked to Mr Chapman, Your portraits are all flattering ones." The reason for this remark is that 20 years' experience has taught him the happy knack" of putting his patrons entirely at their ease under the tryIng ordeal, instead of the "Now then, hold your head up, open your eyes, and keep still" oferdinary professors of the art, startling the nervous ones into an expression that puts them qu.te out M heart with all photographs and photographers. H. A. Chapman's prices are the most moder ife in the county. The extraordinary amount of ratro'iajj.i he has teceived enables him to compet e with the lowest, while he is tuning- out portra. that are not equalled by any. PLEASE CALL AND SEE THE SPECIMRNS (which are all Mr Chapman's own work), unlike soma in Swansea, who are deceiving the public by showmg those which are not their own productions. HENRY A.
