Mr. Gladstone, in his speech in the House of Commons last night, condemned the precedent of asking the sanction of Parliament before con- cluding treaties for the cession of territory, an the ground that it is an overriding of the prerogative of the Crown..
This expression of opinion by Mr. Gladstone caused general surprise amongst his followers and was received in silence.
The Conservative papers this morning, in discussing the matter, ridicule Mr. Gladstone's scruples.
July 26th,
In the House of Commons last night, the Bill for the Cession of Heligoland was read a second time after the motion brought forward by Mr. Phillips was rejected by 209 votes against 61. Only Irish members and a few Radicals voted with the minority. Most of the Gladstonian Liberal members abstained from voting at all,
Sir Richard Temple, in a speech made in the House of Commons last night, la support of the Bill for the cession of Heligoland, dwelt upon the extreme importance to the British of Zaczi- bar, which owed its prosperity to the Natives of India who had settled there. The British protectorate over Zanzibar was, he said, alone worth a thousand Heligolands,

independence too much to express criticism), but he in general prefers to adhere sinct y to the rule that a diplomatist is responsible to his Government only. He does wish to suppose the Chamber made knows its hopes and intentions with a view to intimidate or influence his attitude; anyhow it is his duty to declare that he has known the emptiness of the rumours on which the Chamber has based its protests from the first, and, whatever the result of the negotiations may be, their course has been and will remain inde- pendent of any influence derogatory to the inte rests confided to him. Besides, M. Coumany says, he is going home on leave and is not likely to return, but he has every reason to believe that his successore any more than himself will not "admit, even on the plea of ruinours or warnings, any interference in our affairs of service on the part of persons or institutions to whom, I think, no Government. no impartial man, would allow the right to interfere. I can only terminate with this conclusion, the first and probably the last communication I may have to make to you," The Secretary to the Chamber replied that that body was elected to represent all the commercial interests of the port of Shanghai and that the original letter was sent to the Ministers as a matter of courtesy, and “i the confident expectation that it would be received in the courteous spirit in which it was sent; and they can but regret to find from the tenour of your communication that such confi. dence was in your instance entirely misplaced.* To explain M. Coumany's annoyance it might be mentioned that he has endeavoured, as repre-
proved abortive, the Danish seamen denying senting Russia and Denmark, and the Great that there is any necessity for it.
It is again stated that General Black succeeds to the post lately held at the India Office by Sir Edward Bradford,

The Government has no information of the rumoured death of the Ambas, and the story is generally discredited.
BARRISTERS' Retaining fees.
The Attorney-General (Sir Richard Webster) as head of the English Bar bas just approved of cert in rules proposed by the Council of the Incorporated Law Society governing the practice These of giving retaining fees to counsel. provide that a general retainer shall apply, unters' otherwise expressed, all tribunals, including the House of Lords and the Privy Council, but not Parliamentary Committees of either House, and shall entitle the party giving it to notice from the counsel to whom it is given in the event of the latter being effered a special retainer, or a brief by the opposite party, Subject to this, a general retainer lasts for the joint lives of client and counsel. A counsel who holds a general retainer, after a reasonable notice, may accept a special retainer or brief from the other party, unless a special retainer or brief be given by the party who gave the general retainer. A general retainer is farfeited when the counsel holding it does not get a brief in any proceeding in which the client is not concerned, and to which it applies; but it does not entitle: a Queen's Counsel to a brief in a case in which it is usual to instruct junior rounsel only. "When a general retainer is given for one person, and be sues or is sued with others, and appears separately, the retainer in that particular action; but if he appears jointly with others, the retainer does not apply, and remains unaffected. A special retainer cannot be given until after the commencement of an action it gives the client, a right to the services of the counsel during the whole progress of the action. retained counsel is entitled to a brief on every occasion in which the case is brought be fore the Court. except where it is usual to Instruct one Junior counsel only. A special retainer on circuit must be given for a particular assize, and holds good if the venue is changed to another place on the same circuit. If the action is not tried at the assize for which the retainer is given, the retainer must be renewed for every subsequent assize until, the action is disposed of, unless a brief has been delivered. A retainer may be given for a future assite, without a retainer for an intervening one, unless notice of trial shall have been given for such intervening assize. Counsel in the original action cannot accept a retainer or brief on appeal from the opposite party without affording the client In such original action the opportunity of giving such retainer. Where counsel has advised or drawn pleadings, in contemplation. or during the progress of action or suit,
The
a retaiber cannot be accepted from, or pleadings drawn for, or advice given to the opponent, without notice to the first client. The retainer does not cease upon conntel being promoted to a higher rank at the Bar. The fees for general retainers are:-In Parliament ten guineas; in all other cases, five gulpean. The fees given for special retainers are:-In Parlia ment, five guineas; in the House of Lords and the Privy Council, two guineas; in all other cases, one guinea. Hitherto, it should be added, the rule has been to give retainers for each Court, and it will now be impossible for a counsel who has argued a case below to accept a retainer for the opposite side on appeal, without giving the former client an, opportunity of securing his services.
