SION IS PARLIAMENT. tv?NDON, June 15.-la the House of Lords tonight, a great number of potiliona against Ute Irish Church bill were presented. Lord Oairnea gave notice of a question to ascertain if the government intended to endorse the opinions contained in Mr. Bright's last lotter. Lord Grey said be felt all the circumstances nnder wbiob the bill was set t to this House, but he urged the Earl of Harrowby to recon? sider his motion for postponement, in view of the consequences which might result should it be carried. If the, bill before them passed at all it must be materially amended. The House of Lords now bad, but might not bore after have, the power to amend. The result of the late elections was emphatically in favor of tbe bill and it would be imprudent for the Lords to oppose it. If they were successful for tbe moment they would soon have it re? turned, and perbaps in a more objectionable form. He urged consideration of the amend* menta in a fair and conciliatory spirit, and exhorted tbe House to accept the measure with dignity, and not incur the odium of the people by collision with the House of Com? mons, which represented the deliberate opin? ion of the nation. The Archbi?hop of Dublin complained of the hard, ungenerous and illiberal manner in which the Church was treated, and denounced the bill. He thought if it was necessary, it might have been less severe. The Bishop of St. Dairdo said the superior sanotity of property was not to be considered, but the b?st means to apply in view of the pub? lic need. He disapproved of the excessive demon? strations of Protestantism, and he said he valued its ascendancy, not as it was politi? cal, but as it was moral' and beneficial. : He considered the Irish Church an anomaly. It had failed to fulfil its mission and promoted discoid. He urged the passage of the bill to a second reading, and afterwards the introduc? tion of amendments. The Duke of Richmond explained that though he felt the injustice of the bill, after great hesitation he had resolved to act in op? position to his party. He was sensible of the inexpediency of popular agitation, and con? vinced that the constitutional course was to pass the bill, after amending the objectionable clauses, and leave the responsibility of accept? ing the amendments or withdrawing the bill on the government. Tbe Bishop of Peterborough opposed the bill, and appealed to tbe House to act firmly and impartially, and not hum?iate themselves by abjectly abdicating their constitutional po? sition, and beseeching the nation to spare them because they were utterly contemptible and useless. Speeches were also made against the bill by Lords Cbelmesford andClancaity, and in favor of by Lords Penzance, De Grey and Monck. The House again adjourned without aotion. ^JT^I'UESS DISCUSSION OF THU PARLIAMENTARY DEBATE-HOUB ABD FOREIGN TOPICS. Losnx>?, Jone 15.-The ftmea says the speeches of Lord Stratford de Bedoliffe and the Archbishop of Canterbury leave no doubt as to the result of the bill. While they dislike it and ore unable to persuade themselves that it will have a beneficial effect, they advise the House to assent. Tbe practical good sense and patriotism of these speeches contrast strongly with the tone of Mr. Bright's hasty effusion. Tho Telegraph says: "After tbe first night's debate on the Irish Ca ure h bill, the issue can? not be doubted." The Star says: "Since the speech of the Archbishop of Canterbury, everything appears immediately favorable to the bill." Mr. Bright has written a letter to a meeting in Birmingham, in which he says : If the House of Lords delay the passage of the Irish Churoh bill, they will stimulate the discussion of sub ' jacta which might slumber for years. Thc value ol the constitution which gives a ma? jority in one House in favor of,aud in the other House against, the given policy, may be ques? tioned. Why is it that when the Crown and Commons are in harmony with the nation tbe Lords are in direct opposition ? As long as the House of Lords act in harmony with the conn' try, they may go on for a long time, but when they thwart its course they may meet with un? pleasant accidents. He hopes the counsel of ? few good and wise men in the House may prevail. The Admiralty Court has ordered the sale of the steamer Alexandria, built for the Confed? erates, and directed the proceeds to ba leviged with the court c In the contest ?t Notfingham for Sir Robert Clifton's seat in Parliament, Chirles F J ely was g elected over Digby Seymour. ?7 Murphy, an anti-Irish agitator, baa been ar ? rested in Birmingham. [ The Times to-day says the restoration of tranquility in Paris was the only event wbiob could reasonably be anticipated whore the olti aen3 were indifferent and* tbe military force immense. It rejoices that the result was ob? tained without bloodshed. ':>: . ' ' Nothing now bindera the Emperor from adopting tho constitution il course which the eloctiom invite. Another battle in the streets might bs made ?anse for an indefinite postponement of public liberties. Paris, on second thought, chose the more moderate among tbe Liberal candidates for tbe Legislature, and by her indifference re? buked violence. There oas be no excuse BOW for bolding the city too hostile for conciliation. THE TTME3 ON TUB ALABAMA. LONDON, Jone 15.-The limes th? morning pays it cannot be denied tbat the work of build? ing the Alabama was done knowingly by Bri? tish builders, in a British port. After the .vont it may be regretted that such proceed? ings were lawful. It ia almost certain they ware not unlawful, but it would have been bet? ter for the two countries if the government had seized the Alabama. The justifiability of thta step ia doubtful, bat tho refusal is an of fenoo which England committed, and wbiob She is ready to submit to any tribunal as soon SS the Americana desire, L4TKS?

The Cubans here are very solicitous to hear from General Jordan? command-the last ad? vices placed him in close proximity with, the enemy, and a battle was imminent. C?spedes and Quesada express themselves confident as being masters of the sit? uation. ' Every expedition from tho. United ?tates had landed safely and joined the insur? gente, forming a formidable taroo. They are successful in every contint with the Spaniards. It is stated that Federal agents report a gen? eral indisposition on the part of the Cuban leaders to entertain the annexation question. The Cubans attribute the inaction if not tbe hostility of the government to this fact, and are alarmed at the arrest of Cubans st Now York. The leading partisans have left the capital.

SCIENCE, AMONG TUE CELESTIALS. Ch?nete Doctors ?nd Syetema ot* Mccfttcavl Treatment. ? writer io the Jane number of the Overland Monthly describes the medical systems of the Chinese in California aa follows: Judging from tbe number of their apothe? cary moren, one would soppose that the Chi? nese were large consumers of medicine. Nor are apearanccs in this particular deceptive. There are in San Fransisco a dozen or more establishments -whore Chinead medicines are prepared and sold, and the business is said to be very profitable. These establishments em? ploy each, on an average, about four men ia cutting, mixing and putting np prescriptions, and in de sooting and drying their thousand and moro remedies, gathered from every im? aginable source. Every town io the country where there are Chinese baa ita medicine atore, and scarcely an invoice of gooda can go to the trader in the most distant mining settlements, or to the sutlers who follow np the campo of the railroad laborers, but medicines will occu? py a prominent pla in it. One would infer, therefore, that there must be an extensive field for physicians who under? stand the nature and application of these sup? posed remedies; and this is found to be tbe case. The Chinese, wherever they go, are fol? lowed up pretty closely by men professing to be skilled in the healing art. There is, how? ever, a great diversity in the abilities and qualifications of these physicians. Some with? out any medical education or training what? ever, but because nothing better offers, buy. beg, or borrow a set of medical books, put out a sign, and begin writing prescriptions for all who apply to them; while others have grown gray in tbe praotioe of their favorite art, hav? ing done scarce anything all their days bnt to study the diagnosis of diseases, the nature of medicinal herbs, minerals and animal sub? stances, together with the theories respecting tbe effects of every variety of extraneous in? fluenae on diseases, aa well as the influence of the imps and other spirits. * * * Not only have Chinamen the auda? city to c vet adrift from one doctor and go in search of another, bot ( without seeming td know of any possible impropriety in the act) they may be under the care of two or more physicians at tbe same time. Within certain Ilmita such a course is en? tirely admissable, and in some circumstances necessary; for the practice of the healing art in China is divided up into a groa , vaiiety of specialties, and it may happen that a patient may be afflicted with a complication . of dis? eases, some external, aome internal, so that two or three or more physicians may need to be applied to before all of the patterns ail? ments bavo bcon prescribed tor; in which case the greatly afflicted individual may be sub? jected to the neoesaity of making himself the receptacle of the stuff administered by several doctors at the same time. Thia, howevei, according to Chinese notion a of the internal structure of the body, ia a less hazardous experiment than we Western, peo Ele, who allow ourselves to read? abd to be eve, the modern works on physiology and anatomy, would suppose. * ? ? There ia now before ns the medical portion of tho library or a Chmese scholar, who, while he lays no claim to the rank of a physician, ia nevertheless frequently applied to lor advice. Thia library consists of only aix complete works, ont of a list of two hundred and seventy-six medical works. In one of these we find a catalogue of one thousand and twelve medicines, of whioh there are hom metals and atone one hundred and thirty-eight kinda. Grasses and vegetables (including roots, stalk J, leaves, flowers and seeds) three hundred and thirteen kinds. Trees, iwoether tho medicine be found in the root, trunk, bark, leaf, flower, fruit or seed) one hundred and seventy-seven. From the human body, twenty kinds. From animals, ninety-one kinds. From fowls and birds, thirty-four kinda. From bogs, worms, snakes, shell-flab, turtles, flies, Ac , ninety-nine kinds. Fruit*, forty kinda. Of che "five grains," thirty-eight kinds. Of the cabbage, turnip and muon families, sixty-two kinda. Io another work whioh Una haSan1. -?ttj/Bb??m i* a'. hst of only ??var traodred and seventy-eight medicines, of the same classes- as above speci? fied, but each class muoh abridged. Even the first, however, is not a complete catalogue as we have been told* Tho Chinese druggists in San Francisco claim to have upon their shelves from six hundred to a thousand va? rieties. We oite a portion of the list of medicines taken from tbe human body. "Hair-cnt fine and used in plasters. Curly hair. Woman's milk. Dandruff, Teeth filings. Ears. Exu vto.

The gall ; and other things which cannot be written in the Over? land. The sacredness with whioh human remains are jsuallykept may start a question in the minda of some as to the manner ot procuring certain of the above-named articles. The doubt, however, will be removed when the reader understands that the bodies of felons who are executed, except where friends appear to claim and bury them, are not thus religious? ly regarded and carefully interred ; while tho bodies of very young children are often simply eewed ap in matting and tossed into a tree, or exposed on the surface of the earth among the tombs for dogs and vultures to prey noon. The list of medicines fem the an unala be? gins as follows : Dragon's bones. White drag? on's bones, bis teeth and horns. Musk of the musk deer.- Ox bezoor. - Bear's gall. Ivory. Deer's glue. Glue made from a black mule's hide. Sheep's milk.- Cow's milk, cream and curd. Hoof of a white horse, his thigh; also the same of a bay horse. Bull's manure. Bun's horus. Marrow of sheep's bones. Sheep's gall, lunga, heart, kidneys, teeth, flesh, horns. Chamois' horns. Deer's horus (the tip of the horn is regarded as especially valuable tor re? storing the blood. ) Rhinoceros' horn. Tiger's bones, I claws and eyes. Dog's gall, heart, brains, teeth, skull, blood, and so on, through a lon? list, up lo ninolv-four varieties, embrac? ing, perhaps, everything tbe reader will be apt to imagine, aa well' as many things that he would not think of aa possible to be brought into service in the healing art, and certainly several things which we will not oopy here. All these are m their catalogue of doctor's stuff, bot many of the artiolea in the hst are rarely use i, and som o are designed only for external apphoacion. i&tiii The bulk of the medicines used by the phy? sicians and sold by the druggists consists of I vegetable substances of every variety. The prescriptions which we have examined call largely for thia class, viz : For roots ?ndherbe, lohggfM deed, lt is impossible tor one to bo ? good iud a ceo pt able physio ian and not exercise these qualities; therefore We know ot no class of mea J who will be more ready to take into considera? tion the question as to what may be done even here in California towards helping some of j these bright Chinese youths to acquire ? gen? uino and finished medical education, snob as may flt them not only for practitioners, but prepare them also for transl at lag medical work? into their own language, and for estab? lishing lectureships in their owe country. The Medical Missionaries hi Onion have been labor? ing with thia object in v ie w, and if their brethren in California,who have so promising afield lor tho development of thoir beuev?Sem oat oro tu this direction, will. work in concert with those on the other side ot th? water, thoy will only be doing what we have learned io ex? pect from thia so honorable aod indispensable branch of thc learned profession, lt will be aeon that the way is preparing for saab place ia we bave suggested, and for revolutionizing iltogether the system cf the Chinese medical praotioe. when we odd that very ? many China naen in this country h?ve a reody learned the lupenority ot our system over that of thoh own middle kingdom, and when Bick they wist none bat Amer loan doctors; abd mon would follow their example but for their timidity and ulacK of the moans of an ii.trodootion to our respectarla physicians, and btll for the dread ?arrant of Hop ry Wilua ma, Suporin tendon t ot tho National Cemetery at Anderson viii?, ?*or oeopl? of the neighboring towna to dook t ?raves pf, tbe Confederate* iWt?Ja the inolo sure of the National Cemetery had soriaethi to do with it." ?# NM? i MNrtefsTsMsTsB m o a? mmm b?t4 --Tostee took home sewfe'tW^ as - ?he proceeds of her resent visit to Ute country.

The first of the series of monster concerte, which are to render this week memorable in the. annals of the Hob, tookplaoe on Tuesday 'last. A Bos? ton dispatch of Tuesday night, to the Washing? ton Chronicle, says: All accounts concur in pronouncing the first day of the Jubilee tbs most or! gi asl and effec? tive event of the kind in America. At least 80 OOO people were present. Twelve thousand of them were musicians and singers, and yet there was room for at least 15,000 more. Ole Bull led the instrumental part of the Jubilee. There were three conductors, headed by Pat? rick 8. Gilmore, an adopted citizen of Irish birth, and the order or the great army of musi? cians was not less admirable than that of the immense audience. Representatives from many of the musical societies of the different States were present. There were 8175 soprano singers, 2616 altos, 1959 tenors, 2606 bassos; total, 10,266. There were 689 violins, flutes, trumpets, horns, drams, <kc. Over UGO persons took part in the military bend. The wonder of the exhibition Was the Jubilee organ, claimed to be the smallest and most powerful in the world. It was built by E. & G. G. Book. The harmony Ailed th3 vast space with its wondrous volume. . It la only ten feet high, sud the total number of pipes is 1011, comprised in thirteen speaking stops, lt is so built that all the pipes are exposed to view. It is a marvel of ingenuity and effect. It is im? possible io describe the effect of the perform? ances. The "Star-spangled. Banner" was given by the immense corps, and the cannon outside the building sounded in exact unison with the chorus. The guns were fired off from the in? side of the buildiDg by Gilmore, using electric wires. The effect was truly wonderful, and thousands melted into tears. The Anvil Chorus was equally successful a sd novel v The following telegram gives en account more in detail ot the day's doings: The inauguration of the National Peace Ju? bilee took place this afternoon. Rev. E. E. Hale invoked the Divine blessing, and Mayor Shurtleff delivered an eloquent and patriotio address ot welcome. Hon. A. H. Bice followed as the orator of tbe day. In th - course of his speech, which was of considerable length, he said: "It is ordained, in the affairs of men, that the highest triumph of victory ie the most per? fect peace. The loudest dm of battle is hushed in the melody of song. In entire agreement with this thought, convened this vast assem? bly-larger than was ever before gathered hi a single audience room upon this continent gathered from East, Weet, North and South, to blend the power of numbers and the harmo? ny of song together, and, with multiplied voice, and instrument of every name, to unite in sending np to Heaven and forth to man a pse&n of great joy over the restoration of domestic peace, ana the renewal of prosperity to our common country." Admiral Faragut, Commodore Bogers, and other veteran naval officers were escorted to the Coliseum, and the Union Navy Association and many other distinguished people, includ? ing Mrs. Harrison Gray Otis, Parepa Rosa, and Ole Bull, were cordially greeted by the performers and spectators. The chorus and instrumental performers numbered irom 10 000 to 12,030, and the au? dience probably 25,000, notwithstanding the th re ueoiug weather. Fully half the people in? side the Coliseum were ladies, ?i The first pioca on the or^rarnmo, the cbwiu, - A rnruug castle is bur Eui a,-1' -wa? sung by the fuH chorus, with orchestral and organ accompaniment, under the direction of Mr. Gilmore. The choros comprised 10.000 voices, - and the orchestra 1100 instruments. The vocalization of the chorus was as distinct, and the enunciation as clear as that of a church choir. At the close the audience testiflod its appre? ciation by. long continued applause. The over? ture to "Tannhauser" WAS then performed by a select orchestra of six hundred musicians under tbe direction of Julius Eichberg. It was carefully and .thoroughly performed, and was. conceded to be's success, eliciting rounds of applause. .'Glory be to God on High," from Mozart's : "Twelfth Mass," was rendered by the foll cho? rus, with orchestral -and organ accompani? ment, under the direction of Carl Zerrahu. Gounod's "Ave Maria" was then sung by Pare? pa Boss. Tbe violin obligate was performed by two hundred violins, led by Ole Bull, nuder the direct! in of Mr. Gilmore. Parepa's solo was heard in all parts of the building. The next selection was "The Star-spangled Bauner," which introduced the whole chorus, the organ, and the entire fosee of musicians, together with the chiming of church-bells and tho Arina; of artillery. This was one of the . greatest features of the day, and was a grand success. . ! The audience, after joining in tho chorus to the last verse, ros? en masse in a state of pa? triotic excitement, sud it was ' repeated with renewed energy and harmony, olosing with an? other outburst of enthusiasm. After the intermission, the "'Hymn to Peace ' written by Dr. Holmes to the music ot Keller's "American Hymn," was sung by the whole 10horns, And was enthusiastically encored. The overture of .* William Tell" followed, and Parepa Bose then sang the "Inflammatus." fi om "Stabat Mater." tbe responses being given by the chorus, with accompaniment of organ and full orchestra. - The 4 'Coronaticn March'' was well received. Toe "Anvil Chorus" was -given by the entire force, with 100 anvils. The accompaniment created incense enthusiasm, the audience de ma ndidg a repetition, which was given.. . The natiohaYulr, "MV Country ^s Of Thee," was tbe last piece, and was song by the fa l Ohorns, with all the accompaniments, including ? the organ, entire orchestra, big drum, chimes, artillery. It was the crowning success of the day. The audience stood on their seats and shout ? ed and made extraordinary demonstrations. 3he last verse waa repeated, and the entire aud? ience joined in. With thia ended Ute pro? ceedings of tho first day. Tho indications are that the Coliseum'will be crowded all the week. Tho Joint committee of the Legislature will receive President Grant to-raorrow morning at the.

Oar telegrams have already informed our readers of a duel fought on Friday last at Lun dy's Lane, Canada, between a Spaniard and a Cuban, in which the latter was wounded. The Now York Sun says of the affdr: The weeklv faurs*! pubhsssd in this ?its in the interests bf Spanish tyranny, entitled El Cronista, owe* Whatever success it hag OD* t?tined in the way of obrculation to the Cuban war for liberty, which calls forth the earnest BVmpsAhies o? our population, and their con? sequent interest in everything which may bear upon it on either aide, Taking advantage of that circumstance, the editor.

At Ferrero de Contiya/' a play upon Ferrer* name, whtob handled the latter's character without gloves. Tbie exasperated the Spaniard to euch an extent that he published an edito? rial article denouncing tho unknown author as a coward, and daring nina io reveal his name. On the following day a Senor Porta, a Vene? zuelan by birth, but long a resident of Havana, publicly proclaimed himself the writer of the offensiv o artioles and assumed the entire re? sponsibility of their contents. Simultaneously with thia announcement a * friend" of Senor Porta called upon the editor of El Cronista and offered him the alternative of ret? acting all the slanderous articles which had appeared in his paper on the Cubans and their cause, or of fighting a duel "to the death," according to the statutes of the code. The first horn of the dile arima being ont of the question, an agree? ment was immediately made to fight in Can? ada, just outside tho boundaries of the United States. Pistols were the weapons chosen, and the spot selected was within a short distance of the famous battle-field of Lund y's Lane. Ac? cordingly, on Friday last, the party consisting of the two principals and their respective seconds-Gutierez de la Vega, late Civil Gov? ernor of Havana, for Ferrer, and Don Perico Almentero, of Havana, and Colonel Rivas, of Sew Granada, for Porto-took the train for their destination. No unnecessary time was lose after their arrival in selecting the ground and arranging preliminaries, and at 5 o'clock on Sunday morning they went to a retired grass-grown spot, partially hidden by trees, and then and there, and with no spectators save their seconds, aird the astonished bird a, the pistols were exatcdned and caro fully ioadod, the cruel surgical instrumenta with their sug? gestive accompaniment of lint and wrappers made ready for instant use, and the brief space which should separate them from death calm? ly and mathematically measured off. The ohoice of position was awarded to Fer? rer, and each man walked to his appointed place, with the weapon of death firmly clench? ed is his hand, and a fierce determination glo ving on his countenance. Each stood side? ways on his chosen spot, clinched his left baud resting on his hips behind. Three shots were exchanger, an J a fourth was demanded. The seconds stepped to one side, the surgeons s 'ood in an xi ms expectation, and for a mo? ment tbere was silence.

Instantly the participants gathered around thc wounded mao, the surgeon i examined and dressed his huts, and after they had declared that he would not be able to continuo the con? test, he was hurried into one of two carriages in waiting, wb.le Ferrer's party got into the other, and both were out of sight in a minute. Senor Porto was taken to the International Hotel, at Niagara Falls, whore he lies in a crit? ical condition, ?nd Ferrer and party returned to New York, carrying a doubt of Porto's life or death.
