In short, there were many wlece wbo were desirous of living with their hatbands, and who could support boils them and their children, if they had only mum legal protection fur their turnips. Mr. MALINS objected to the tugether. It ws monstrous to give • power of granting an injunctio a n to • jemmy , of the peace. In the hands of the Court el Chan etry.or the courts of common law, it wee unobjectionable. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL did nut think any one could object to the wife leonine the right, after separation, to property the product of her own labour. he imienchnent was then withdrawn. Dir. MIX DIMOND moved to insert in line 26 after the word t• husband," the weeds, "or ha. been cruelly treated;" the effect of which would be to extend the remedy to the wife not only in cases of desertion, but in twee of ill-treatment. The :11"f ORNEY-UENERAL opposed the amendment, which woo negatived. Sir J. Y. 11l LLER reeved that instead attic words " shall apply to Rey puitice," the words "shall make application to two or more justice. in petty redskin" should be oubeituted. The AT waled that this clause had been introdueed at the instance of a noble and learned lord front motives of humanity and benevoence, but the machinery deviwd for working out the principle laid down wee, he be lieved, iroproctieable. The only elternative, therefore, so it appeared to him, was to adopt the view of the right hon. gentleman the member for Oxford, and stake out the word,. Ile should be glad to afford protection to the wives of per some of the humbler climes, but did not oee the means of doing it with the machinery propuwd. He would mm weed thewi who hail amendments to the clause to withdraw them, that the clause might be fur the present negatived, but with the view of considering whether Rouse means might not be adopted for effecting whet ho *duetted to be a benevolent and desirable object. Mr. HENLEY concurred with the Attorney-General that the principle of the clause was moat humane, and ho was not r out; ; but t he hope that ironies means might be devised for currying it attempt to emend this clause was simply ins- possible. His own experience taught him that nothiug was more difficult than to determine what was desertion. What means had the megistrute of arriving at what the kind meaning of desertion ? In the eceluelaethal law he believed " deeertion" was no offence—(" Hear, hear," from the Attorney-General)—eau that they had no text book to go upen. This was an objection in lituine. Ile would throw out for the consideration of the Attorney-General, whether much good would not be done, and the object of the clause effected, by giving the woman, in case of the desertion of her husband, the remedy, es regarded the protection of het earning. and property, by application to the county court. (Hear, hear.) The county courts were tribunals at every melee door, and if the judge in his decision should happen to make a mistake as to what amounted to legal desertion, no harm would be done, whereas if the niagistrate htippeeed to make a mistake, he would be liable to action after Nolen, and might be subjected to heavy penalties. Mr. AYRTON thought from the language of ministers on the previous night, that they were to have " the bill, the whole tell, and nothing but the bill"—(sheen) —but now it appeared the committee were mewed to freedom of de motion an all the dawn—(heer, bear)—and the first clause they came to they found was not an exposition of the genii • meats of the government, but something that had been put into the bill at the instance of somebody else. He wanted to know what the Attorney-General meant by the expression, "the clause would be struck out for the present," and what, supping that he intended to carry out the object of it by some other mean., was the remedy he intended to sub etitute ? (Hear, hear.) The remedy must be given to the wipe generally,, for It was impereible the liberal members couldallow • bll to pass which constituted a court that afforded a remedy to the rich alone. (Hear.) The govern ment declared that their object was to extend to the poor the benefit which the rich alone could now command, but the very first clause they came to that provided a really cheap remedy the Attorney-General struck out. (Hear.) He thought they ought to devise seine tribunal foe the poor man who lived in Yorkshire nearer than Loudon. Mr. BLAKEMOItE trusted that the Attorney-General and Solicitor-General would apply their minds to the devising of a practical remedy to the evil which this claws was in tended to meet. If it was thought that the impossibility was too great for an ordinary magistrate, let the jurisdic tion vest in the chairman or vire-chairman of Quern Seabees, or the whole body of magistrates miuiag at l 4ettg . sessions or get eral seesiooa—but he *seed le to the county ataxia Mr. NAI'IER regretted that the know -Gensrel pro posed to abandon this clause, which he eamidanni o r of the best in the bill. There wen, no peewee wee deserving of sympathy and protection than pow .arid wows, who, being deserted by their boatloads, Wiggled to support themselves and their families by_ the mom& of thee ems industry. (Hear, hear.) Nor could he logics a more Meg or more accessible tribunal foe abiding that protection than the load magistrate. (lieu, bear.) They wee building up by • great number of claws, whet, se kr se the great body of the people were weeersed, yea atm all an unapproachable - *Abend ; but when they wine to • proposal whereby • limp* Weepiest», sad easy remedy wee . gieen to those who most needed preleetion, ft was shwdwed. He then& to withdraw this dews, be came of somas diMealty la the machinery which might be fang, would he • reproach spa the goesonmeat. .GRAHAM awed with Mr. Awe= and Mr. Na pier that the principle of this 17th claws was valuable, if they could make it effective ; bat there he speed with the Attorney-General and Mr. Gladstone, That the machinery provided was not calculated for its parries, nor wel t t sw e ep. tittle of amendment with any chews of making effective. He did not consider it wooM be right to glee such • power to • single magietrate, ce even to two jestiow petty seseione. But he would suggest to the conimittee that a very small extension of claws Id would be an immense Improvement to that clause, and et thesametinte glee elect to that which It was deeiredbythis 17thditoose to aocomplish. He would insert the weed maize' in the 18111 clause, making it extend to carmine as well as property, end he would ex tend the power which was given by that claws to the Court in London, to the county courts. Thus the county courts would have jurisdiction to protect the women both in regard to proerty and earnings. (Hear, hear.) Mr. - HENLEY misted thee then yea so class of caws with which the country magidretee had to did, so difficult as those of desertion. Ifs man left his wife and family and they became chargeable to the pariah, the pariah enthrals, were sure to press upon the megistrates to rend the men to gaol for the desertion, though Is might have gone away with the view of seeking employment. Nothing was so difficult for the magiotrate as to determine in much oases whether the man was doing his duty or nut, and it would be moat unwise, he thought, to met on them the responsibility of deciding in cases arm* under this claw. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL as the committee that he had no Intention of abandoning the remedy which was embodied in the claws ; but be wee anxious that the other clauses should be affirmed before lee suggested the ' mesas by which the principle of the dense should be mulled into elect. If the Wooreittee would do him the favour to accept the pledge which be now gave, that this should not be the last time whew the subject should be height before Use., but that smeary and a full opportunity sistald be given Inc the conehiersdon sad die cussion of the 'abject, he would wadable, the clause, and endeavour to frame it in such a meow sa he hoped would be better for its purposed protecting the interests of the humbler .esst.

The amend mint directly tubbed the gneatione of centraluotion and local administrations. There were at preterit about 50 local courts siiininiefering • cheep and cosy remedy to nay wife injured by the smelly of her Inetband, by affording bee a judicial wept teflon and ahuony ; and for dime courts were eubmituted a centre] court sitting in London, or perbga not strictly iu London, but in London ur Mi ddles s, or wherever deo her Majesty might appoint. By this bill you gave faci lities for divorce, but you placed obstacles in the way of separation (hear beer) --and it should be remembered that separative was especially the reining of the woman es divorce was that of the man. If they were to raise the question, then he was prepared to say that we ought, in place of the local tribute& which it woo propmed to abolish, to mete others of a better kind. What was the remedy proposed by the bill ? If a husband disci-led his wife fur two years, or without reasonable encore, you for the first time gave her the power to obtain a separation or divorce, and that being en, to rend a poor woman to the central court was a mere mockery, fur a deserted woman implied a woman in poverty end distrese end rho onglit to have the resdisit end the cheapest reiliedy instead of a moat difficult end expensive one. Were the queetions is volved in this remedy so &filet& that the county musts could not deal with or decide them ? Ilkianswer to that wee' that the county court. now dealt with end decided ell the questions raised in this very proceeding, for if an action was brought for the maintenance of • delorted wife, all the ques tions involved in this provision of the bill might be and were raised and dealt with 6y the county courts over and over again. Ile thought, therefore, that there could not bo any objevlion to giving the powers he exited to the county courts, but at the rune time he was aware the his sineniumeit raieed the question whether, with regard to the other matters con tained in the bill, them ought not to belated tribunals. Mr. PACER was not prepared to di agree with the him. and learned gentleman with regard to having keel tribunal,. to aceomplinh the objects of the bill, but mod my that, living as he did in s largo and peplum, district, where the county courts worked well in the recovery of smell debt., he thought it was imposibte for the judge. of these courts to have this additional duty cast upon them. Mr. DRUMMOND said the hon. and learned gentleman (Mr. Butt), approving of the principle of the bill, took ad vantage of the courts which already existed to extend its operation; but the bon. gentlemen (Mr. Paulo) weined to wish that 11101110 ether local tribunal@ should be created. Surely. it was better to take advantage of them which already ex isted, than to set about to create new ones. Lord J. MANNERS said it was his intention to have added words to the clause which should have allowed judicial separations by other courts beelike the county courts. Ilisi intention was, if the amendment of the hon. and learned gentleman was auccemful, to have moved the ineertion of words carving it still further; or if the hon. and learned gentleman a amendment foiled, to propane weeds which would establish some courts of local jurisdiction. The ATTORNEY-OENICRAL mid he was aware of the necessity of rendering applientione for esperstiorut of thin sort se little expensive as potaible. But this demo might involve queationi of the !Welted importance, becauee, supposing a wife or a husband permuted a petition, the question would aria whether the desertion well without ressineble excuse. Now ono of the excuses might be adultery. Every ground of separation or divorce might become matter of riontroverry, Suppose an application in the first instance for ajudiciel equation, and on grounds which afterwards involved en application for divorce ; how difficult it was to say the &d -eem of the inferior tribunal was to be slighted and disregarded by the 'wrier tribunal, and therefore it seemed to him un• advisable to give power to an inferior tribunal to try the very questions which might have to be tried by a euperior one. That might enable parties to have a precedent diecuesion by way of precognition of questions which must come before the angrier tribunal. Ile thought that the hon. and learned gentleman bad better guard his amendment by making it rptiT only to judicial separation on grounds which would an involve an imuo which would he a sufficient ground fur 64 divorce. Ito would accept the amendment to the extent ititing the county courts power to adjudicate in came of separation, whowver ouch a_ . arntion was sought ea grounds which did not involve a final divorce. Lord J. MANNERS wished to ask the Attorney-Cieneral hew the clump, ae he proposed to neon it, would he in Wien with the fith clause, which nodal over all ion meta to the sew court which was to be unglitated? Lord J. RUSSELL wished to ask a emits die LS koviey-Graoral, for this proposal led to no eariontlia et • most important question.

Ile &oiled the Attorney-General to state if it was only adultery which Men to be excluded traa the purview of the county courts? Ile would not now eater into the question whether the county courts were the peeper tribunals to deal with questions of this sort, or whether - they ought not to be made so. _ . Lord LOVAINE said It appeared to him that the clause was destroyed if adultery as a eases fur judicial separation was ousted • for if a woman came into the county court for a judicial aeiaration, the hatband had only to alk-ge adultery ea the excuse for desertion, and she had no groundo to go upon. Sir E. PERRY said that the reluctance of the Attorney- General to admit; the amendation was founded on his unwillingnees to give the county cow& power to deal with questions which were to be tried by the central court. But the county courts, now had jurisdiction in there matters, for en action for neceseariee eupplied to a wife might be met by the plea of adultery. If tho amendment was accepted you must go further, and allow the county courts to deal with separation in all cases, except where the court had to decide cm the question of Anal separation. Ile felt great reluctance to give the power to the county courts to dissolve marriages, but for all other grievance the poorer clawed ought to have access to the county courts. He hoped that the Attorney- Genera, as he had made a concestion este part of the amend • went, would concede the whole. Mr. GLADSTONE rid that it wee most important well to consider the principle now before the committee, and cope cially... many different views had been taken of it. 'I ho principle of the noble lord (Lord I. Road), and more other members, was that you ought to continue the (militia* which had hitherto existed for obtaining judicial separation. But, to his surprise and regret, the noble lord at the head of the government but night had announced a very different doc trine, end said that he wait opposed to giving facilities for judicial separation, and that he was of opinion that married persons thould only have the choice between con tinuing to bear their sufferings at home, and the extreme remedy of a dissolution of their marriage. He was glad to find that the Attothey-General did not adhere to the extreme principle enunciated by the noble lord, for ha rid that he war &spatial to give facilities to judicial reparation, with went qualification.; and so for as that could be dune without danger to public morality. Ile (Mr. Gladstone) did not fear any danger to public morality from the increase of such facilities, for there were very few cameo in which corrupt motives influenced persons seeking judicial separation. He assumed that it Wall the desire of the committee to main tain the existing facilities for obtaining judicial se pa ration, and he returned his theater to the hon. and learned member for Youghal for having devised a method of raising a ques tion which they bad hitherto found it as impotrable for them to get ideas it would be hereafter for poor people to get at the mistral court of divorce. The Attorney-General was daipeeed to gas to • certain length with the hon. and learned member for Youghal ; but he objected to the county courts havingpower to meddle with midterm which might come to be treated - lathe central court, or to touch the question of divorce i vinculo matrimonii. Thera might be tome force in that objection, but it should be recollected that the very state of things which the Attorney-General deprecated now existed in the cocketastieal court, which handled the question of divorce which was subsequently to be dealt with by the flame of Lorda. He did not theaters see the force of the objection of the Attorney-Gemeral. Let him point out what • difficulty and what an anomaly would follow the adoption of the proposal of the Attorney. General. Tho propteed amendment must carry with it as a certain coorequenee that the claws would not be confined to cases of judicial tion for &milieu only, but to all other eases for which judicial eeparation was obtainable. The Attorney-General iilloliell and gavurisdiction to local tribunal. only with the limita tions wh ii he had stated. But, then, suppling the county courts had power to deal with all cafes except thaw nurttere which were connected with divorce " a 'Weide matrimouii," what would be the conarquecce ? Bader the bill the slid tery of the wife enabled tU husband to present e petition for a divorce " i vincido matrimonii;" but the wife could not peewit • petition for a divoree " 1 vinculo" en iteyount of the lottery of the beamed.

Lord GODElitlell unshed to know, auppicing desertion to be eitublithed, whether the hatband might not be able to plead adultery, and tbud oust the wife of her remedy in the county court ? Mr. EWART wan desirous of knowing bow far the bill contemplated the grunting of an itinerary power to the court. Mr. COLLINS hoped the hon. and learned :needier for Toughed wood not cement to the limitation suggested by the Attertev-General. Mr. BUTT mid he understood the Attorney-General to ray he Ind nu objection to the county court giving a judicial reparation, but that in the event of any cue erieiog fur • su perior court the kernel* , ion if the interior court should made. But abet objection coetilthere bete the county court determin ing whether a wife had committed adultery or not ?

The clause woo now linty Lao* the committee, and he treated it would not I.e ',umpired. If the Attorney-General thought it &- nimble to place any restriction on the county courts, there would be no difficulty in adding a proviso fur that purpose. 'rho ATTORNEY-Ci EN ERAL could not consent to the postponement of the datum. The question for the consider ation of the committee was this—ought the county court to be armed with authority not only to the extent now possessed by the Concheory Court of Loudon, of decreeing divorce A inentii ct them, lot in cute of desertion. Divorce A mewed et there ad. granted ou the ground of cruelty and adultery. lho bill propped to introduce a new principle, namely, de• eertion. Now whilst 110 entirely agreed in the expediency of inverting load tribunals with all the authority that was required for the administration of justice in matters of neces sity, he del not think they ought to be intrusted with matters which did not require to be dealt with in that expeditious and summary manner which was requieito in lima of debt. The county court jurisdiction wee limited to dill meters, but it was now proposed to authorise them to detemiine matters of the most deli cate nature, not only requiring a considerable knowledge of law, but great judieul ability. He did not think the county courts a tilting tribunal for the decision of such eases. The eulject oar ono requiring very grave consideration. Did thew bon. gentlemen who advocated the county courts sup pose they were capable of becoming orderly, decent, grave euidembher, like the courts of justice with which they were familiar P If so, tiny were greatly miataken. if the question was pimply desertion continued fur two years, which was sec notonous no to require no judicial invotigstion, there would be no difficulty, but when the question arum whether desertion 'PPP without reumableexcuse, it involved the whole range of inquiry, and introduced an issue which could not be properly decided by such a tribunal. Of course he should how to the decided" ref the committee, but if they determined that these niettere should be within the cognisance of there local tribunate the whole subject of judicial equa tion must he brought within the mope and orbit of their ppiAietion. The question now before the committee was one on which a decision must be taken, and he Leered they would at mire proceed to a division. Mr. BUTT said that if the committee should determine in favour of local tribunal., the clause might be so worded as to limit their operation. Mr. DRUMMOND said that in the amendment which ho had proposed he exenipted permit* of rank and property, sgsinat which exemption the Attorney-General protested. The proposition now before the committee madeno duitiotion, and the bon. rend learned gentleman objected to that. lie (Mr. Drummond) certainly did believe at one time that the govern ment were eineertly desirous of giving • boon to the middle and lowa chimes. Ho now confessed him folly and deep repentance, and promised never to believe them again. (laughter.) Mr. AYRTON said it was roost desirable that the com mittee should understand that they were about to divide on the simple principle whether the county warts eheuld have this jurisdiction or not. If that principle should be affirmed, it would devolve on the Attor ney -General to frame such clause. u would cozy out that neiple. Lord J. MANNERS trust the amendment would be put to the committee in such • form that all who we* , fa vourable to local jurisdiction would be able to vote for it, because many hon. members were favourable to local juris diction who did not think county . courts a fitting tribunal. He would, therefore, Bugged the emotion of the words, "say mart that may hereafter be authorised by tide act." Mr. BUTT raid he would accept the proposition, and withdrew his amendment. Mr. MALINS objected to the withdrawal of the amend ment, and *misted on having the decision of the committee ma to county courts. Mr. BUTT mid, as the hon. and learned member objected to the withdrawal of the amendment he would ask the com mittee to negative it. (t. Bear , " and laughter.) His object was to raise the question of local jurisdiction. The hon. and learned member could prevent him from withdrawing the amendment, but he could not compel him to veto for it (laughter)—and be hoped that every hon. member who wee favourable to the establithment of locel junadiction would vote against the amendment. (Laughter.) After a few words from Mr. HESLES. The amendment wan put and negatived. Lord J. MANNERS then proposed to insert the words "or any court authorised by this act." Sir G. GREY caked what court it was that was meant. The committee had just unanimourly rejected the proposition that it about() be the county court, and had thereby rejected the only coot. available. Lord J. MANNERS raid the amendment of Mr. Butt was to give jurisdiction, and, to his mop-ride the Attorney- Gamma tartially accep t ed the principle of lo cal jurisdiction, but said he wished to put certain restrictions upon it. A long debate srose upon that question; many gentlemen said they were in favour of local jurisdiction, but were not in favour of that particular curt. If they did not have courts of local jurisdiction, it certainly appeared to him that they were going to commit a grievous inmate* upon the less wealthy deuce of the community. That being so, be pro posed this amendment, which would leave it open to the government, if they were sincere in their deed* to earry out the proven' of the hon. and learned gentleman, to frame eleven m the bill to meet the general &the for courts of local jurisdiction. It was very important that the people in the country should not be deprived of the courts with local jurisdiction that they had now. He wished to test the opinion of the committee as to whether they were or were not favourable to local courts. If the committee thought that the court should be central, and, in the words of the Attorney-General, the rank, wealth, and social poultice of the nuitors should be regarded, then let them vote against the amendment and pass the bill, which would then be a boon to the rich, but would afford no relief to the poorer clams Sir G. GREY said, the noble lord had not even shadowed out what description of court it was that he wished to mita , blink. The government entirely disclaimed all responsi bility ea to the establishment of them new meets. They had I unanimously negatived the proposition ea to the county courts, and then to make this proposition, without stating what was the nature of the local jurisdiction, was, he must say, avery shabby course of proceeding. (Loud c ri es of " Oh' , ) Mr. DI:TT said he knew the right hon. bdonet was incapable of doing anything unfair, but he thought it would have been more fair if his obeervatione had been addressed to him before he withdrew his amendment, became If the withdrawing the proposition as to the county courts was to lead to their having no local court* Le would have gone to a division upon it. Wes there anything shabby in that P Was there anything shabby in !saying that he objected to the jurisdiction being entirely in the central court, and that it should be in courts hereafter to be established P lie was perfectly ready, if the Attorney-General would not, to draw up clauses which would carry out the amendment. He could conceive clauses giving part of the jurisdiction to the courts of maize and part to the quarter sessiond, and that would give pert, with great advantage, to the 1 county courts. Sir G. GREY laid the hon. and learned gentleman had pursued a straightforward mune. He said he was ready to bring up dames giving part of the jurisdiction to the court of amine, part to the quarter sessions, and pert to the county court. Let them see those dames before they agreed to the amendment. What he objected to was inserting words of thiekind, throwing the responsibility of the matter upon government. Sir I. PAKINGTON molested against the unnecessary warmth of the dnieuedion. He did not think the course taken by his noble friend could properly be characterised ss ebabby. Sir G. GREY observed that he need that word in the heat of debate s and he now withdrew it. (Hear.) Sir J. I'AK IN GTON said the house bad decided against conferring jurisdiction on the county courts. Then his noble friend Raked them to confer it on courts which had no exidtenee. He wee in favour of the principle of local juris diction ; but es they had decided against the county courts, and there were no other courts, there was a difficulty. Sir W. lIKATIICOTE did lot Pee why they should re frain from amerling the winciple because th ey had not the &Italia before them. Whether it should be the court of !WOW, or whether, as had been usefully euggeeted by the lion. member for Dumfries, they should have a court conga ing of one or morejadges emanating from the court of Lon don, end visiting the ration, puts of the country, it did not memo to I*. to nereanary to deride at that moment. 10. - Mr. 11 I.ItI said the complaint wee that the noble lord loot not defined exactly the kind of courts to be established. They were going to sweep away courts which did four-tenths of the truaincea, end they provided no substitute. The ATTOItNBY-GENEItAL said the tion of the noble lord was this " Any husband or wife may present • petition to the maid court Sc to Court.' To a court, he know not what, which was hereafter to be consti tuted. Del any one ever hear of mob a proposition before? A too.. wtelwitous print of the ability of the noble lord in Mulerehip lie ,eilikl not roneeive.

RUSSELL said, whatever diffkulty he might have in voting for the amendment, he felt much grouter difficulty in voting for the Manes ea it stood. When the hon. and learned member far Yeughal moved to give jurisdiction to the county courts, the Attorney-General psrtiolly assented to the proposal, and it was not till some time after that I made the objections that he did This clause proposed that juditial separation should take place only on petit ihn to the central court, and thereby they would for ever destroy sea part with the local tribunal.. Whatever proposal would to made hereafter would be matter for consideration If them lurid tribunals could be found, it would afterwanlo be mm priori for them to strike out the words to be flow inserted. Ile thought they ought to make room attempt not to dent all these court., became whatever benefit might be deri from the other parts of the bill, this would he a great injury. He should be sorry to emeut to thin clause, emoting that these la al courts should be destroyed, and that no eultelitat Lion should Le made for them. The committee then divided For the amendment Again. it This remelt was received with loud cheers, and The ileum was then agreed to. On clause, 20 " Decree* of reparation in the absence of the wife or husband may be reversed," Mr. LYGON asked whether any means were provided for putting an end to the state of iudieial separation moved t hz t imet The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said that every judieiel separation might be terminated at once by the ameeineat the puller, in the same manner that divorees a men. et M. might at present be put an end to. The clause was then agreed to. On clause 21 ea to alimony, leave nut the fleet line sod I ll ewreed r. c D a ß andj l :t i o c ti i En ) s ; : v. p r t order of alimony, and it shalt also." The hon. gentle. was unwilling to leave a matter of this kind to the option of the cowl. The ATTORNEY-GENF:UAL said there might be alai of judicial separation in which the wife would have no tight to alimony at all—.e for iustenee,where the husband was Ms suitor, or where the wile had a large separate awe. Th e eleuse a., therefore, better ait mood ; but it would, of course, be the duty of the court, where the wife was the ins. cent party, and was not otherwise provided fur, to order bee proper alimony. Mr. DRUMMOND had Men no many decisions by which the unfortunate wife had been left to starve, that be di: not think the question whether alimony was tube greeted should be left to the judge. Of course the court might award what tutu it pleased ; it might give the NOM:la sixpence in the caws pointed out by the hon. and learned gentleman. Mr. HENLEY was afraid the amendment would rather prejudice than improve the position of the wife, and Mr, DRUMMOND withdrew his motion. The cherse was then pawed. Clauses 22 and 23, " A wife divoned menses et Mom to be considered as to property a frame sole," and "Alen for the purpose of staking contracts or suing," were agreed to. Oa clause 24, Mr. GLADSTONE said the clause only provided Met parties who had been judicially separated. but who had mesa together again ' might Mule a declaration to that effect to bl tiled. Would it not be better to make it imperative epee them to record in some formal manner the but of their ra entering into the full married state ? lie could crannies it possible that if the matter were left optional, the parties, though ewe:wiled, might find it cony, Meet to paten e the data of ) judicial separation ea a bar to the rights of at. aloes.

DU the Attorney-General intend to accept that decision, and femme the =weary clam. b o,eelf? (Hear, hear.) The ATTORNEY-GENERAL was care the committee would agree with him that common courtesy demanded that be should wait to see what the noble lord (Lord J. Manners) weeald propose. The noble lord was in a Mate of geetation— Oenghter)—and he (the learned gentleman) would wait and ass what sort of offspring, by the obstetric aid of the hon.

Till be knew the nature of the procedure the noble led intended propose he could not possibly determine on the language et the clause ' • but he would promise that when the commit tee had gone through the bill he would nuke ell such alter. Mow in its wording ea might then become necessary Mr. GLADSTONE expressed his disappointment that the hen. sad learned gentleman should say he was unable to devise any machinery to curly out the amendment adopted by the committee. The bill destroyed a local juriedietice, and it was the duty of the framers to find • substitute. If the hon. and learned gentleman would put a baled kh Isergy and activity to work all the difficulttea would mail. Lord J. MANNERS said the government had, in tbeeim ef the Probate Bill, fully accepted the decision of the ham with regard to local jurisdiction, and there was no nese why they should not follow the same course in the preset ere. It was the duty of the government to prepare dame to carry out the views of the huuae. Sir E. PERRY said the amendment had been =pc= ' by both sides of the house, and he trusted the Amway. General would give way and frame clauses to carry tat There was no chance of new court. being established, od the county courts were the only ones the poor could get& Mr. HENLEY wished to know what would be the coi tion of parties who signed the declaration.

Weed. property to be separated whilst their persons were united t The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said the claw assist in the bill as otiginally introduced, but had been added by noble and learned lord. The effect, as he undoretootip that when &judicial separation took place, the after property of the wife became her separate property, and he parties came together again it would be affected by say bra of hers, and her creditors would have a remedy again= There was some difficulty, however, in construing the clesia, when taken In conjunction with the 22nd. Sir F. KELLY said these clauses introduced entirely se principles. By the 22nd clause, when a sentence of leper tion was pronounced the property of the wife was to be mell• dared as that of a femme sole, but if the parties came together again, the 24th clause would produce the greatest camphor tion. He trusted that his hon. and learned friend consider this subject and be prepared to state his opinion at a future stage. He (Sir F. (telly) wished to call .1• tention to a matter of very great importance, viz., the eget of the resolution lately come to by the committee. Ile eat sidered it woe incumbent on the government to give effect to that resolution. The bill was of greater importance tothe pea' tical administration of justice than say which had meek fore the house in his time, and it was incumbent on the go. vernment who had charge of it, and who introduced chasm totally unprecedented, to devise the machinery to carry it on. He was sure the majority of the house would never consul to give the county courts the power of pronouncing a anted of judicial separation, and it was necessary to devise one scheme by which justice could he administered by led courts, as decided by the committee. He thought sal plan might be devised by which a man might get a anomie at the expense of a few shillings or so, and have the cm come before the court of =Wes, or in email matters ten the quarter sessions, and in still smaller the petty Mika The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said the task impceedn him was a herd one. The committee had refused to grant the jurisdiction to the only local marts in exietenre, and they now called on him to find others. He understood the be. and learned member for Youghal to offer to prepare chaff and be would be ready to give them his beet cunsidtratiM and every assistance in hie power. Mr. A. STAFFORD wee not satisfied with the Anomie General's explanation. After the decision of the ma.r the government should either have withdrawn the bllea have at once undertaken to prepare clauses to carry oat to wishes of the committee.
