Leader Office , Friday Evening , February 11 th . HOUSE OF LORDS . There was no business " of public interest transacted during the sitting this evening , which lasted only for a very short time . HOUSE OF COMMONS . Mr . Samuei ^ ost took the oaths and his seat for Banbury .
INDIAN LOAN . . Lord Stanley gave notice that on Monday next he should move to bring in a bill to raise money in England for the service of the Government in India . la reply to a question whether it was proposed to carry out the post-office regulation for the post-office authorities to open all unpaid letters , Sir J . Nortkcote said that this ' would be carried out , as it was for the public convenience such a regulation should exist : One reason for this proceeding was the number of Valentines on the 14 th of February . The number was about 800 , 000 , and some were not of the pleasantest character . ( Laughter . )
NEW GOVERNMENT OFFICES . In answer / to Mr . Tite , Lord J . Manners said it was intended to build an Indian-office uniform with the new Foreign-office , on the vacant site in Downing-. street ; but that the expense of the former would be borne by the revenue of India , subject to the sanction of Parliament . —After some remarks from Sir B . Hal ^ Mr . Hope , Mr . Coningham , principally in reference to the particular style of architecture for the new offices , General Thompson thought it would be best to stop expenditure m this direction until they had ascertained the amount of expense they would have to bear from India as well as from a probable European war .- ^ Yiscount Paimerston deprecated the Gothic , whether English , Loiribardo , or Italian style of architecture .- ^ Mr . Bentinck concurred in the views expressed by General Thoinpson . —The subject then dropped .
THK INDIAN MUTINY . Mr . "W Smith asked whether it was intended to bestow any reward or , mark of honour upon those native princes or their ministers who had proved faithful to us during the Indian mutiny . He said , he considered that we ought to reward those natives who had been thus faithful , or who had in any way assisted us in our Indian troubles , just the same as we rewarded our own soldiers and officers . He was quite satisfied that public opinion would back up the Ministers in any step they might choose to : take for the purpose of rewarding or marking their sense of the services of native princes or persons in power in India . .
Lord Stanley admitted that no subject could be of greater importance than the one brought under the notice of the Indian Government . The subject of rewards to our native allies had already attracted the attention of Government , but the subject was of so much importance that no general rule had yet been laid down . Government , however , had already addressed two despatches to the Governor-General of India on the subject , recommending rewards and distinctions to be conferred pn worthy native allies , and some rewards had already been conferred . He was as fully impressed , and sp -were the ; Government of India , as the right hon . gentleman himself , of the value of the services of these native allies , and the expediency of giving them fitting rewards .
LANDED PROPERTY TITLES . The SQMOiTOR-GENERAti asked for lqave to bring in a bill to simplify and cheapen the process of transferring landed proporty , and of ascertaining whether the title was good or not . Aftor some discussion leave was given . The other orders of the day were disposed of , and the House adjourned .

INDIA . Letters and papers of the Calcutta mail of January 9 th have arrived ; the intelligence is generally scanty . The Punjab is erected into a Presidency ; it is enacted that the Punjab , flie tracts commonly called tha " Trans-Sutlej States , " the Cis-Sutloj States , " and the ?• Delhi Territory , " shall form the jurisdiction of the Lieutonant-Gtovernor of tha Punjab . The now Presidency cpntains a population , including both subjoots and dependents , of nearly 22 , 000 , 000 , and will shortly bo garrisoned by an army pf 17 , 000 Europeans and 45 , 000 Sikhs . A Calcutta letter says : — No measure can increase the
influence of Sir John Lawrence , who is , on great questions , an independent ruler . But the new atatus will add greatly to the dignity , and thorofore to the independence , of hie successor , who has been at length definitively solooiorl In the person of Mr . Montgomery , the Chief Commissioner of Ondo . " The Govornor-General is coming down to Calcutta , and the l ( 5 th Jan . is named a » the date of his lordship ' s departure from Allahabad . Another order decrees the disarming of the whole of Upper India .

CHINA . The following has been received under date Hong Kong , Dec . 30 : — "We have no political , intelligence of any interest . Of the Yang- tse expedition nothing has been heard which can be relied On , but the Chinese in Canton state that the fleet had reached Hankow , and created great alarm among the inhabitants ^ who were doubtful as to . the object of the visit . His Excellency Baron Gros is here at present . " From Cochin China there , is no news : " Canton remains quiet , and our European troops are very healthy . " Sir John Bowring left Manilla on the 20 th ult . in H . M . S . Magicienne , bound to-Borneo , thence to the Southern Philippines , and back to Manilla , where , from about the middle of next month , his Excellency , it is said , will remain until his health is fully restored , or the expected recal reaches him .

FRANCE . The Moniteur of this morning publishes the monthly return of the Bank of France , which shows the following results , as compared with the previous return : — Increased- —Bills discounted , not yet due , 23 , 500 , 000 fr . Decreased—Cash in hand , 1 , 000 , 000 fr . ; notes in circulation , 29 , 000 , 000 fr . ; advances , 16 , 500 , 000 fr . ; treasury balance , 6 , 000 , 000 fr . The Times correspondent says : — " From the manner in which M . de Moray ' s speech in the Legislative Body was received by all the Deputies , without exception , the unanimous and enthusiastic , applause , and cries for peace , and the feeling of the country so unmistakably manifested , there can , 1 believe , be no longer a doubt in the mind of any one of the dislike which the very thought of war inspires . "
. ll The fact that the Emperor did not show at the Tuileries ball on 'Tuesday , " says the correspondent of the Eccpress , " has given rise to a rumour that he was furious at the Count de Morny ' s speech , which he considered as in » opposition to the . spirit of his Own . It is asserted that the Empress went to his room to beg him to make his appearance , but that all her pleading was in vain . " :
