The irigheed dinettes of that oompaay, in conformity with the ithentleas of the legislature sought to perfect en arrange ment giving the line to the Great Western Company, but to do est a bill was reeewary. That bill was now before the Reding arden, and the North Western Company sought to erred% by inserting that it should be sent back for the sensed of the majority of shareholders, they hating by their purchase that majority in their own hands. He was sure that their lordships would not consider the consent of these persona who had obtained their votes by suck means, necessary to the poising of a bill, brought in in conformity with their own original intention. The committee had re ported that it sou not necessary to go into evidease, u there wee Smother bill before parliament which would thin the intentions of the legislature with regard to a competing line ithe Meet.

Earl of CHICHESTER made some remarks which were almost entirely inaudible. Lord BRAUKONT was in favour of further inquiry. Lost POSTYLN said he had been requested by Mr. (Bps., chairman of the North-Western Company, to state inset solemnly that not one farthing of the corporate funds et that company had been applied to the purchase of shares di• Oxford and Birmingham line, and that the North. Widen Company had given no guarantees whatever in teetbseence of such purchases. The noble baron expressed his sedition that their lordships owed it dike to themselves -sad a the public, to pursue the inquiry moat closely. The Rent of DEVON spoke at some length, but was quite . • Lea RIDESDALE, after some observations, moved as am meadows that " no farther proceedings be bad in this meitheithisaimiew, it beieg expedient that the house should biro aglow it the decthons of the courts of law upon the legal riMa." Tbs Earl of WICKLOW supported this ameadment, ,waning that no proceedings on the subject could be attended with aoy useful results this year. Lord BROUGHAM said what was really wanted in this OW was security for the competition of two lines of railway. It was perfectly evident that the " protection" of the stand ing order, would be used to frustrate the iotention of the legislators, and thus to produce mischief to the public, by any meeting of the company as at pewit rmpoee d. Ho objected to the course which had leen taken by the committee, who ought to have inquired into the matter, instead of reporting that Inquiry could be of no avail. If no other object had loss gained, It would have been something to expose the improper and predicate proceedings of the shareholding In this case.

BUSINESS OP THE HOUSE. The Earl of LINCOLN begged to ask if, in the event of the (list-union on the poor-law not being concluded this evening, it would be continued to-morrow, or whether the Health of Towns Bill would be taken ? Lord J. RUSSELL thought that, as there were wily two questions* on the poor law to be considered, the dim don would be concluded to-night ; but he should take the Health of Towel Bill to-morrow even if it were not. DECORATIONS TO THE OFFICERS EMPLOYED IN PORTUGAL. Mr. EWART said it was understood that it wee *ls' intention of the l'ortuguese crown to offer decorations es the officer" of the Brit 6h navy employed in the late mime of the insurgent troops. He wished to know if it would be sanctioned by the government. Viscount PALMERSTON said that it was well knowa to those who were interested in such matters, that there wee a regulation in force which prevented British matters tier accepting or wearing any foreign order, onkel for distinguidted services at see, or in the deii enemy, or when they were actually in the Mt • foreign power. lie bad no di ffi culty in saying I* rm. it the duties performed by the British officers, either de s naval, or military, in Portugal, were such as to bring.dtmen within the scope of that regulation, or to justify their relit. fog any order from the Portuguese crown. (Hoer, hear.) POOR LAWS ADMINISTRATION BILL. On the order of the day forgoing into committee on this bill, Mr. G. BAN KES rose to oppose the Speaker's leav ing ,the chair. The hon. gentleman proceeded to complain of the nature of the new commission, contending that the office of commissioners having been ori ginally temporary, their functions might be better and less expensively fulfilled by an under secretary for the home de partment, instead of a new board, the members of which were to nave seats in that house, thus increasing very mat► natty the patronage of the government. It was said that this was the system of Sir Matthew Hale, but the NUMs of the commissioners spoiled it. By his system the Merl authorities had the chief administration of the law, is to a central em.trol far len expensive thattU It was because they did not choose to trust the heel soar i dea, whom be (lie. Bankers) had no hesitation hi eisakidhl not deserve such a decision. It was to this CUMIN . Sidi if/ tlr appointment of • set of men to superintend the operation et the law who were perfectly ignorant of its working, that all the difficulties had arisen. Accidental circumstances had last year led to a great inquiry into the Andover Union case, but he believed that many similar eases could be found in other districts of the kingdom; and that iuquiry showed that a better superintendence would be secured by trusting to the local authorities than by a reliance on any board sitting in Landon. By that system of supervision, many most competent individuals were disgusted and de terred from taking pan in the management of the parochial affairs of their own localities; and hence many serio.:s evils had occurred from injudicious orders and improvident interference. He (Mr. Dukes) desired to re move the unpopularity which attached to the pr sent system of poor-law government. This bill, however, proposed a further continuation of the present administrative system : it offered no change in any particular, not even be a change of the men who were to intrusted with the im portant functions of carrying it into effect. If discretionary powers were given to the local authorities, thence to the magistrates at quarter sessions, and from them so to the Home Secretary, it would be wholly b ham a hoard of busy, meddling men in London. U these circumstances, for himself, he must say that he would rather hove the osi.tiag eyeeeee cvnliauerl multi Me new parliament assembled, for he thought a great advantage would arise if this question should be legislated upon by members who came lush front their constituents. His own constituents saw in this bill no prospect of an Improved administration of the law, and they complained of the ex pense ;of the machinery to carry it into effect. On thee. grounds he should move as an amendment that the bill be committed this day three months. Captain PEC HELL thought the present discussion might soon be brought to a close, and the progress of the blligtenalp facilitated if the noble lord at the head of the govenuaset would answer the appeal which had been made to him, and would declare that the individads who bad proved them selves to be unworthy of their situations would not be re-ap pointed. The hon. member ler Andover (Mr. Etwall) had abstained from bringing the report of the Andover committes before the house, under a reliance that the noble lord at the head of the government would carry • meseare which would have the effect of removing the present commissioners. The bill, however, perpetuated these powers for tree mare to come, and he agr eed: with the hon. member for Dorsetshire that this was a question which ought to be left to the decision of the new parliament. (Hear, hear.) Hs hoped the noble lord would mu an assureses that the present authorities under the Poor-law Act would not be continued in office ; and if so, the sooner *hit passed the better it would be for the country.

To these charges Mr. Chadwick had given an answer, denying their justice, and adding I. corroboration a letter from Mr. Nicholls, the senior omandseioner. Both these documents, which IMO Tay lengthy, the hon. member read to the booms at length. The letter a Mr. Nicholls wholly exculpated Mr. Chad wick from the imputadoes eon upon kis character, end bore testimony to his efficiency so a public officer.

This was to charge the commissioners with declining to examine cases I of abuse, with wilfully shutting their eyrie to illegal }me tiers and Oman, and visiting with displeasure and di.favour the assistant commissioners who made such rept sentstiona.

Soon after, it won ii name an additional comraissioner ; Sir = Biel was appointed ; this resolution was diwiesehet to Mr. Chadwick ; and the misunderstanding with lii. Lewis extended to the new commissioner. During the whole time that he (Sir J. Graham) remained at the komeoffiee, there had been misunder.tandiugs deeply seated sad seastantly in operation between the commissioners and their smeary, which were injurious to the eublic ser vice. To he diamined Mr. Chadwick would have been • measure of extreme severity and not consistent with justice, for he had, on many occasiocs, conducted inquiries with great ability, and bad discharged his duties st.is .icturily in con nexion with the poor-law comminion. Then came the An dover inquiry, when the feeling of ill-will against the mm. missioners gave a colour to the evidence in a way not consistent with public duty or the proper service of the public. The continuance of Mr. Chadwick's connexion with the commission would not be advantageous ; on the other hand, the deprivation of his services would be a serious loss to the public ; he, thereiore. hoped, that he might be use fully employed by the government in some other important situation. Lord COURTENAY, as c4aireman of the Andover Union committee, was anxious to state, in justice to Mr. Chadwick, that none of the evidence given either by that gentleman or other witnesses, led him to the conclusion that he bad been guilty of anything like undermining those under whom he was employed. Mr. Chadwick had b:en before the commit tee three days; his statements had been tested by the evi dence of other witnesses! and he (Lord Courtensy) was cue- Tinted that his conduct in the unfortueate position in which he had been placed, had been marked by a sincere desire to do his duty, and to cause the principles of tee pour-law to be carried into effect. On two occasions, once before Mr. F. Lewis, nd* once before Mr. G. Lewis, he had brought for ward ' the very objections which he had stated betters the committee; consequently, there could be no ground to accuse him of unfairness. The Goble lord (Lord J. Russell) had charged pima with seeking to undermine his superiors, and had cted in proof, his advice to Mr. Parker ; but, admitting even that he had not communi cated his impression to the secretary of state for the time being, that was Dot sufficient to support the charge against him. He (Lord Courtenay) had no acquaintance with Mr. Chadwick but from the evidence be gave before the com mittee; and he was convinced there was nothing in that evi dence to justify the impression which had been, somewhat unjustly, made public concerning him. Mr. CHRISTIE said the noble lord at the head of the government would be the last person to do an injustice to any one. Still, he thought the noble lord had drawn rather a harsh inference from the auwers of Mr. Chadwick which he had cited. Mr. Chadwick had merely advised the assist-I ant commasioners to abstain from nuking complaints, on the ground that to do so might be injurious to their own intesesta. Such complaints would require much evidence to substantiate ; and, couidering the fei lingo of disappointment under which Mr. Chadwick was said to labour, it was not su hu r s„. p stow risi irewoothi n ... g .veohounne that h a, e myto... should not have communicated his impressions on this subject to the Secretary -if State. Considering all the circumstances, it must be admitted that these feelings of disappointment by Mr. Chadwick were not without justification. lie had been first employed as an assistant commissioner, and after wards as a commissioner of inquiry. On his reports mainly was the new law founded, and he was largely entrusted with its preparation. Lord Brougham, in moving the second reading of the bill in the House of Lords, had expensed the greatest admiration of Mr. Chadwick's talents. Tee bill having passed, Mr. Chadwick was appointed secretary to the commission ; and most people might think that some feeling of disappointment on lila part was natural at not being appointed • commissioner. The same feeling might na turally be excited when he was afterwards twice passed over, on the appointment of new oomminioners. The right hon. baronet opposite (Sir J. Graham) bad declared that he wee aware of the misunderstandings, which existed for five years; but that he ahmiht rat helm schriaol Mr Ched.......10, al. maul. Neither had the commissioners themselves thought proper to dismiss him; the obvious inference being that Mr. Chadwick had not laid himself open to such a course. Be rejoiced at the testimony which had been borne by the right honourable baronet and the noble lord at the head of the government to the character of Mr. Chadwick. It had been said by the hon. member for Wolverhampton, that he put a question to a late poor-law commissioner as to his private affairs—he suppmed Sir Frankland Lewis was the gentleman referred to. hatT was quite • mistake, and arose oat of • misapprehensioe of his question to that gentleman ; and he hoped the house would consider that he would be the last person in the world to act in an unfair or ungentlemanly manner towards that gentleman, or any one else. (Hear, hear.) After the attack which had been made upon him some time since by 'the hon. member for Wolverhampton (Mr. Villiers), it was perham right for him to state that r. Lewis, the poor-law commissioner, was a brother in-law of the hon. gentleman, which accounted for his bitterness towards him (Mr. Christie), and perhaps went a great way to excuse it. Mr. VILLIERS—No. Mr. CHRISTIE thought so, and he hoped it would go forth to the public that such a relationship existed between the hon. member and Mr. Lewis, for the knowledge of such a fact would deprive any opprobrious observations be might hereafter make, either behind his (Mr. Christie's) beck or before his faoe, of any weight with the public; and at say rate such a consideration would prevent him from waking any future attacks upon himself which the hon. gentleman might indulge in. (Hear, hear.) Mr. VILLIERS said, if there was one member of that house more than another whom he should moped of making rash statements, or doing what other members would not do, he begged leave to tell the hon. member for Weymouth edr(uthe ~,' co nduct in h " c% , dfyo government b l y h e o . l n n u n t . i hk l ei lli rdinge ? ::a li a ad i t ann h g o e o n a . ta ly a L p to ri th y ri a tatua f t er m inti t e r o o m : t be o h :r e r d . e that secretary I ti t it.l l ::.ol ; lbdothb( fi erei : ebletrai e rt, n ,.... ,. ::: an desentereirw.vethhi:heaha d y....o:therd.e th pr:Let.ani a o,ber) t d ,.. hiio tOo fnambartiormso , Wn w tha? i ,oi th tv o kke i: rre t . triop ( pw hi ft:a r itivia . : C tli !r i i i s i ti athme ct was going to do so.

Ms bus. gentleman, 1 as the Andover committee, put this question to Sir P. Lewis, " What were the Tenements you made with your son, who sarreeded you ? ' Mr. CHRISTIE—No, I did not. Mr. VILLIERS wished to know whether the hon. gen tleman would deny that he put a question to that gentleman Mr. CH RlSTlE — Certainly , I did not. Mr. VILLIERS said it was so stated in the public papers, u he could easily prove. Mr. castsTl&--It is untrue . (" Order, order.")

The ATTORNEY•GE2MRAL held that the responsi bility would pratically vest ooe individual. Mr. BANKES contended that, if there was to be a board at all—and the goversuiteet had previously explained that there was—it was necessary that a record of its proceedings should be kept. Ile should take a vote against the clause, in order to test the real meaning of ministers as to whether there was to he a board or not. Lord J. RUSSELL supported the clause. After a convereation, Mr. HENLEY moved the omission of that part of the clause which repealed the enactment requirieg any record or general report of the proceedings of the commasioners; upon which The committee divided—For the clause 6.5 For the amendment The datum was then agreed to. On clause 14, "Rules to be signed by three commissioners," Mr. HENLEY and other hon. members objected to the divided responsibility contemplated by this clause. Sir G. GREY, to meet the objection, inserted a provision to the fleet that one commissioner should act as president, and sign on behalf of the rest. The clause as amended mu agreed to. Clauses 13, 16, 17, were severally agreed to. On clause 19, " Appointment of inspectors," Mr. MILES objected to the limited number of inspectors (twelve) mentioned in the clause. The duties of these gen tlemen were most onerow, and tbereore he thought that, as the bill was an annual one, power should be given to the commi,sienera to uppoint as many inspectors as might be nece-esry for the efficient performance of the duty. B 7 a paper in his band, it appeared that one inspector bad, during twelve years' service, occupied 3 years, 13 weeks, and 2 days, in travelling alone, having during that time traversed 93,607 miles of the country. (A laugh.) He moved that the words limiting the number of inspectors to twelve be omitted. After some oonversation, Sir O. GREY moulted to the amendment, And the clews, so amended wu agreed to. Clause 20 wu pass d, as %ere claim s2l and 24 inclusive. After a short conversation, on clause 23 being proposed, Mr. P. BORTHWICK moved an amendment, to the effect of reducing the duretion of the act from five years to three years. Col. STEITHORP was of opinion that the bill ought to be limited to one year, in order to show that the house had no &confidence in any body of poor-law cocamtuioners. If it +ere consistent with the orders of the house to move an amend ment upon an amendment, he should move that the blank is the clause be filled up, not by five or by three, but by one year. Sir G. GREY opposed the amendment moved by the hon. member for Beecham, on the ground that he th ught three years too short a time for the public to be able to form anything like an accurate judgment of the working of the bill. Though it was not intended to make the bill perma nent, he thought five years only a reasot.aole time to be allowed for a hill and perfect experience of the measure. Mr. SPOONER said that, at the end of the session of an expiring parliament, they were asked to continue the system of poor-law adiniiii-tration now existing for a period of five yearn. He was cure the country would be taken by . surprise —his own constituents would—by such a proposition, and he should vote against such an extension. One year he thought guile sufficient fur the experiment. Mr. MUNTZ otwerved that, considering hew much com missions of all kinds had disappointed the country, be was prepared to concur with his hon. collesgre, and to vote in favour of any proposition which should limit the operation of this bill to one year. After a few words from Mr. T. EGERTON and Mr. Has car, Sir G. GREY explained, that the bill did not seek to give the president of the new board a tenure of office for five years. The system which this bill s,ught to establish was only proposed to be of that duration. Mr. BANKES said the average of the duratim of parlia ments was km than five years. He should have no great choice between one and three ; but between three and five there was a great difference. Capt. HARRIS thought the government htd most unduly given w.ty to the press with respect to this subject. Either the time had now come fur abolishing the commission, or for mating it the law of the land. He should vote for the shorter period. Mr. HUDSON also supported the shorter time, and the house divided—For the amendment Against it 76-33 After a few words from Capt. Pacmett and Col. SIB. TRORP, the clause was agreed to. The house then resumed, and the report was ordered to be received this dee. Mr. HUDSON gave notice that on the bringing up of the report be should move the sub'titntion of " three " for " five years," in the duration of the bill. RAILWAYS (IRELAND) BILL--Me 9 o me propose& to postpone the second reading of this bill till Monday, Mr. HUDSON objected, and urged that there should be no further delay.

Ix the House of Lards, yesterday, Lord BROUGHAM asked whether the government had received infor mation of an insurrection having taken place in the Portuguese colony of Angola, after the arrival of the Torres Veins pruners there, and whether Count Bolan, who was one of them, was not now the governor of the colony .— The M arquis of LANSDOWNE said he bad heard such a report, but doubted its aocaracy.—Lord Lyevauturr, in in explanatory speech, moved that the select committee on the Birmingham and Oxford Railway Bill and peti tions, which had declined proceeding further in the matter without being instructed ei to do by the house, be directed to proceed with the inquiry.- -Lord REDESDALE moved, by way of amendment, that no further proceedings be had in the matter this session, it being expedient that the house should have before it the deciaons of the courts of law upon the legal points. After some discussion a division took place, when Lord LTNDIRIIRST'S motion was lest by a majority of 8, the numbers being 22 to 28, and the committee ordered to prooeed in their inquiry ac oordingly. In the House of Commons, a further Ihoussion took place on the subjoin. of Portugal, w . .ich was fol lowed by Lord G. BENTINCK'S calling the attention of the house to the infraction of certain articles of the treaty of Lisbon, of July, 1842, and asking the ' government whether any, and what, steps have been taken to obtain from the l'ortugnese government le- drew for ths past, and security against future, isji t u n or a like kind done to British intereats_propoaaots which elicited au explanation from Lord Pureitstos, but led to no other result. The noble lord, also, i s toMr.Ewairr stated that the services of British osig t i n Portugal, civil, naval, or military, on the " pre occasion, were not such as t o ent i t l e them to, si justify their acceptance of, any honorary dishnetiors or decorations from the Portuguese crown.— N e i * question of the committal of the Poor-laws Mai s e l. tration Bill being put, Mr. BAN EPS moved t h at ie committed that day three mon'hs.
