With regard to the proposition hinted at by the noble duke at the end of his speech, viz., the pro- Vdi ar an to submit Eutopeans to the jurisdiction of the Courts, he would urge the government to pause be hoe they entered upon such • course.

Ile knew that the noble earl opposite (the Earl of Clancarty) woo not a man to be con viteed by orgwoctits. (Laughter.) In this case indeed, he did not wish to convince him. He had an nounced that it wee hie intention to divide the boar an the third reading, and, wishing that the bill might p both so as to meet with general approbation in Ireland, be was glad that the division would be taken under eircuno steams which would be favourable to that result. Viscount DUNGANNON said, viewing the bill as one of spoliation against the Irish church, he should vote for the amendment. The Marquis of WESTMEATH hoped the noble curl (Clancarty) would withdraw his amendment, as his object would be equally obtained by a protest.

Sir J. PAKINOTON replied that the members of the common law menniimiun were now considering their report, and he had no doubt that it would be pi-emitted before the termination of the erasion. Ile was hardly able to answer the latter part of the pupation, because be did not know what amount of legislation the Culmaillaiork might recommend, nor what would be the duration of the seagen.

LAND TAX COMMISSIONERS BILL. Mr. W. WILLIAMS asked the First Lord of tho Trea- Ay Ascher members for beraugh. would have equal right whit monshere for counties to recommend persons' names to be inserted in the Lend Tan Commiesioners Bill to be intro dossi tibia oration?

(" Hoar, hear," and laughter.) DISTRIBUTION OF THE VICTORIA CROSS. Sir C. NAPIER hoped the house would not think him faMidious in making some remarks on the review which had taken place that teeming. (Laughter.) The army and the artillery were represented by batteries of 32-pounders—the cavalry were niagnitirently represented—and so were the guards the line, and the marines. But the nave of the greateM maritime power in the world wee represented by the First Lord id the Adinindty and about fifty sailors. Ile did not think the navy had been treated properly, and he nuke mere in sorrow than in anger when he expreerad a hope that if over such an occurrence should take place again the Admiralty would bring up as many men as they could; and he could net help saying that the navy must be in a bad Mate if in all parts of Great Britain 1,000 or 1,500 seamen could not here been found for the MM. (ion. (Hear, hear.) 'fleeced of appearing in their blue jackets and troweere, the men ought to have gone with their light gone. armed, and ought to have parsed before the Queen in the same manner as the other parts of the service hod done. During the war the milers did their duty ea well aa anybody ilre ' particularly at Sebastopol, , when exposed to the greetestd.utger ; and they would have behaved with the same gallantry elsewhere, if opportunities had been afforded them. (Hear.) On en occasion when tho Queen of England presented medals to her toolditors. and milers, it would only hove been right and proper for the Admiralty to have shown the country and foreigners that tome little respect wee paid to British milers. There cer tainly were a few Greenwich pensioners, but he raw nOOO of the Greenwich toys, and he must may that it wait the poorest dieptay he had ever seen in hie life, and he hoped never to each soother. (Hear.) Colonel FRENCH thought it only jet to the Chief Com naffeioner of Works to say that the oirmamments mode by his department For the free ingress and epees of epeciatore were most admirable. (Hoar.) INDIA. Sir E. PERRY said he wished to draw attention to a coulee of conduct which the governmoent was pureeing, and which he thought would be detrimental to good ride in India. It would be in the recollection of roomy members that twenty-five years ago, with a view to reform the ad ministration of justice in India, on the recommendation if Mr. Macaulay n rommission was impointed. That retemiesion cast the state 800,00 M., and the remit of their Inborn for twenty years was absolutely nothing. They out Immo a %alembic, series of reports to the Board of Dirceor., but on the greater pert of the recommendations no final decision had been made. That being so. Sir C. Wood, the then_pre cadent of the Boma of Control, with the authority of the crown, named a commission in this country,eonsinting of most eminent men, and they made a report which had received the apperbatiun of the most eminent Jurists in this country. Legislation, therefore, watt expected in this country ; but to the groat surprlee of them who had taken an intereet in the matter, • paper was circulated showing that the Board of Director. had transmitted the report to Indic fur the tarpon° of obtaining the opinion of the government there. That we. exactly what they had been doing for 20 years before. But it appeared that instead of its being submitted to the local governments in India, the legifflative council of India had undertaken to legielete on the natter; and they were peening an net which would produce unmitigated evil._ They were going to put British settlers in the interior under the Com pany'e courts. lle wished to know what enure had been taken here to stop such legiidation ? It wan necomary to point oat them matters to the house, because, since the creation of Me krOlatics council, that body had been claiming slew& Alemrailled legifdation. He wee given to understated, dm, that Mme Moe government had from time to time intimated their Thaw that the legislative council war assuming far 100 great peer. Ile wished to know if the leslative council parsed sued setting abide the decision of the home government, OM course the government intended to adopt? He hoped president of the Board of Control would state his own Awe on this important question, which bed now been for Li years. In conclbsion, he beggol to refer to notice of the question he had placed on the paper—to ask the President of the Board of Control, whether. on tho reference to India of the judicial reforms mewed hy her MeMety'e conneissionere, it was competent to the lemalativo council in India to reject those reforms altogether, even though the home government approved of them; and, whether it was true that the legislative council, cominting of nine company's servants and two Queen's judges, claimed to act noun independent legirlatUrc? Mr. V SMITH said it was perfectly true that there hail been en expensive commission in India which grassed re ports that were not acted upon. It was perfectly true aloe the Vint Lord of the Admiralty, then President of the Baud of Control, mid his opinion was ageing the arnalgatimtkm of the cootie, but finding it impuesibledie appointed anotharcent mbielon in this country in order to consider this question • that commission eat for three yeers,and then made a repeet. that report was subiniced to him he coneidersd that the beet course was to send it out to India for their legislative council to legislate upon it, and in so doing he had never per formed impact of the wisdom of which be was more convinced. Tr. Legislative Council was eetabliehect after much delibera lien in 1553, and it was en attempt to provide something like a representative authority in India. To give goneral representation in India, of courts woe utterly out of the queetion, mid no one had been mind enough to propose it ; but the appoiutment of the legislative council wee an attempt to do something in that direction, end iu that lewisletive coon chi were included repreeentetivee from the two other maiden ciee. He had entrweed the matter to the leOslative council of Indio, thinking that they were much niore capable of legis lating for India then the parliament of this country, with a email attendance, which, ho wee enrry to say, they slews bad when Indian stfairs were discussed. Me hon. Mend •eked whet wasthe authority of the legielativecouncil to reject este. Why of course they bad, so every deliberative assembly had, the power to modify or reject the measures brought be fore them. The hon. gentleman asked him what opinion be bed on this question ? lie should not tell him till he beard what had passed in the legislative council, but he would tell him thie, that if the legielativo council canoed sets which, in his opinion, were prejudicial to the government over which be wee celled on to preside, ho should annul those &rte. If he could not get the legiolelive council to pass the arta which had been submitted to them, he should then ask this parliament to legielons, but not till he bad exhausted other means. lie believed that the legis lative council, though perhaps not very quickly, would legislate on the eubjeet, and that the acts they passed would be agreeable to all concerned ; and if they did so, their acts would become law. Mr. WILLOUGHBY appealed to the noble lord at the head of the government to give a day 012 which they could take oho adjourned debate on the motion of the hon. member for Stockport, which stood for 'Tuesday next, but could not come on on that day. The real question wee, whether lodia were well or ill governed ? Lord A. V. TEMPEST joined in this appeal, saying that practically the adjounuuent to Tuesday next was an adjourn ment sine die. Sir G. GREY said government did not undervalue the im. L ar y t . anee of the subject, but it was difficult for them to E t a THE ORDNANCE SURVEY. Mr. LIDDELL said he understood there had been a slight e rror in what was stated by the Secretory to the Treasury the other day, in answer to • question as to the ordnance survey. Ito would repeat the question, and state (meetly the information he wished to obtain. The bowie was aware that the county of Durham had already been surveyed on the 2.i inch seals ; but in consequence of the veto come to by the house the other night, the governnient had determined that no publication should be mode of that survey. What ho wished to sok was, whether the proprietors in Durham, at their own expense, might obtain nape of their estates from that survey ? He wished to put a further question regarding Northumberland, whether there was any objection to grant ing • return of the names of the perishes and Oars in Northumberland and Durham, of which the survey hod been made, on the 25. inch =de, dietiniruishing those which had been already published from those which were = published ? Mr. WILSON said there could be no objection to the re turn, nor to the proprietors of lend obtaining copies of the survey at their own expense. PROBATE AND LETTER S OF ADMINISTRATION BILL. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL, in moving the second reading of this bill, said he thought it would be altogether superfluous to dilate on the evils end grierancee attendant on the continuance of the present engem of obtaining probate of wills and lettere of administration. Tlwy had boon eel long admitted, had been the subject of the reporl• deo many com mitters of that and the other house of pleilonsfills the re. moval of thorn had been the recommendaleass of so many canonise/us, that he might well Resume it =a a matter on which there could be no difference of opinion. Infect, lig:nearly 30yeare, different governmentshad attempted to accemplish this alteration, and unquestionably these courts would have long since succumbed to the attack. made upon them if their assailant. had been as determined as to what should he erected se they were =anemone in their desire to put down. However, he should take the liberty of calling the attention of the house for a Ise minutes to the present state of the law, in order thellbe house might judge how far the provi alma which be was about to Matte in detail would meet the orimillas a the rim. The hnuoe ass aware that interior to Asir hall/ to the year 1107, the now Statute of TEO, • wardrarzak di ff erence existed between wills of per meated eliele and wills of landed property. A will eif personal SAW@ scald no &gestation. The most informal document =blebs adraitrod tomer!. A will of real estate required to be by Ibree witnesses, to be executed with great ai▪ l The set of 11137 took away that distinction, and re that all wille, whether they related to pereenal estate, or exclusively to real ogee, &bald be executed and steeled is the same manner, and with the same solemnity. It might naturally have bun expected that the ereksiestical COW* the jurisdiction of which the home was aware ass confined entirely to wiles of personal estate, would have been abolished, end the instrument the effect and character of which was to be determined by one fixed law, should have been made sub ject to the view and impress, as to its authenticity, at the oniinery tribunals of the country. That being the state of the hive, the anomalies that existed became more gluing and more mischievous, namely, that whilst they hod one single tone in which the will must be •flirmed, there were nevertheless two tribune]s to which it must be submitted, first with regard to ill validity so far as related to personal Mate, to the erelesiergical court, and then to the ordinary tribunals of the (wintry so fer am it related to reel estate. If them were both real and personal estate, end there were any content relative to the malty of the testator or to the execution of the instrument, that subject could not be deter mined by one eingle tribunal once for all, but the parties were compelled to take the matter to two different courts having different form. of procedure, and which might arrive at dif ferent and I prole. concludons. And this was not a mere hypothetical case, became such caste did occur. Only in the hat year they had witnessed one of the moot glaring example" of this. A testator in Ire land was pronounced by the eve leoioetiC*l courts of that country sane as to his personal estates, but in the courts of conga= law, in reference to the real estate, he WAS pro nounced insane. And twin, in England, he wee found to be saner to his reel estate, but there had been no probate es to his personal estate in England. This occurred perpe tually in the present elate of the law. But there might be the Name contest between the ordinary tribunals, an a man might be found by a Surrey jury to have been sane when he made a disposition of his estate in Surrey, while • Mid dlesex jury might find him insane. The fleet einclueion, therefore, which this stale of the law seemed to indicate wee the appointment of • tribunal completely to decide once for all on the validity of a will, whether of real or personal estate, or both. The mat circumstance that exerted in the date of the law wax, that in the ecelesiaetical courts the mode of arriving at a conclusion wit different from that of the ordinary tribunal.. He believed all who hail attended to the subject would agree with hint that matters rotative to the state of mind of the testator could not be tried in a satisfactory meaner except before a jury, because there was no other mode by which the evidence could be en well tested. Bet the proceedings of the Ecele sissified Court were formed on the model of the civil law, and the conclusion wee arrived at quite in a different way from that in which it was arrived at in the common law tribunals. The next requisite was that the court should have one uniform mode or procedure, secertaining and taking disputed facts through the medians of a jury. Uniformity, simplicity, and economy were the principal requisite* which lie thought should be =laddered in any change ; and he would now at once proceed to state what were the alterations made by the present bill. The bill proposed to abolish at once all the existing eeele dastkal and peculinr courts in which wille might now be peeved. Thew courts were about 400 in number, and they met us at every corner. They were, in factors many pit falls in which the unwary suitor might he entrepped ; and they were of no manner of use whatever except to ineresac that " admired confueion" which had so often prevailed in our system in consequence of the extreme tenacity with which wo clung to old institutions long after they had awed to be of the slightest practical benefit. It wee propos ed to estriblish one 'lug! e court of probate in the room o all the existing courts. Even for the ordinary proms of proving, or as he preferred to teem it, of authenticating a will, • court would he necessary in consequence of the minute technical forme which the Sta tute of Wills required to be observed. The court of Probate. therefore. would be a court to which wills noieht be brought cell if they belonged to what was called the commie eine burins, for the purpose of being authenti cated ; but the mode of procedure would be very much more pimple, and he Glutted much more economical than that which at present existed. Of course the locality of the new court would be in the metropolis; but fur the eon venience of the country at large district courts would be funned and local registries established to which wills might be taken whenever a person whew ordinary place of resi dence was within one of thew districts died leaving a per sonalty not exceeding 1,4001. It would not, how ever, be prudent to extend that privilege to caws where the property exceeded 1,5001. Suppers, for =stance, a will was admitted to probate which did not comply with all the formalities enjoined by the Will. Act, the executors might go to the Bank of England, or to soy public com pany in which the deceased happened to have stock standing in hie name, and get that clock transferred to hiineelf. lie might. in tact, convert it to his own use, and yet if it should turn out that the probate hod been improperly granted, another individual might go to the Bank or to the public company and compel it to make good the property. It wan therefore desirable to restrict the jurisdiction of the heal registrare to 1.5001., and insist on all the more impor tant ewe. being token up to London, where, of course, greater care and accuracy could be ensured. Where, however, the property wee under the specified amount, the leerier would have the option of going either to the metropolitan or to the local court. (Hear, hear.) There was another way of proving will., which was not en steeple AS this, and which wee called the proof "in solemn form." Ito object woe this : There might not be at the moment any particular contest about the validity of • will, but the parties interested in it might be deeirous of having placed on record the evidence both of its due execution and of the verity of the tweeter. The bill provided a mode in which a will might be proved in a manner that would be conclusive, both as regarded real and personal estate. Suppose a party was dextrous of establishing • will; all that would be necessary would be to make • sim ple allegation that the toaster was of sound dispueing mind, and that the instrument had been duly executed in con formity with the law. The heir-at-Low end the met of kissed every other party interested would then be cited to appear in court. The wit nesse& would then be examined lot ore the judge; the sentence would be prenounced ; and it would dooti.itively conclude and settle the validity of the will. At present is will devieing real estate might become:mot after any tepee of time, Suppme • manmade • will in the lament month of June by which be devised his real estate to his sun for hie lite with remainder to his children. Supposing that in the month of Mamie he made • wend will by which ho made • different dispaitioon of hie properly. Suppoe, too, that the son took the property under th e later will, end that :10 or 40 years afterwards, ho (the eon) also died. In a cam like this his eldest son might raise a quention es to the validity of the second will, and claim the property undertho will of June. The result was that in the present state of the law no contain title could be given to real property is • great variety of eases where a will formed one of the links of the chem. Well, that would be altered by the inotitution of the tribunal which would be rat up by the bill, for that tribunal would proceed at once to try the validity of the will ; and having decided that, it would thee finally conclude all question on that score. The nest species of twining with which the court would have to deal woe what woo lolled the contentious Moines., which would comprise the suits instituted by pertion hostile to any parti cular will. It was erepmed that the form of procedure should be very much simplified. Elaborate pleadings would be utterly umieceseary. All that would be requieite would be an allegation of ten words by the plaintiff, end a reepoese of half-a-doss words on the part of the defendant. Then ' the whole process would be referred to a court of common kw. The facts would be examined into, and a verdict ar rived at, which, if there wee no rule fors new trial, would be a final decision. The form of procedure in the new court Me not be judged of by the language of the bill. It was absolutely necemary to retain the present procedure until a new one could be established ; but there was no intention to rpetuate that which was now in use . The present judge pe of the Prerogative Court, if it should be his plareure, would ten the judge of the new court in the first instance, but it was proposed that s mon se the judgeship of the Court of Admiralty should become vacant, the judge of the Probate Court should preside over both tribunals; and he (Sir It. Bethel) trusted that et some future time • measure would be brought for ward to simplify likewise the procedure in the Admiralty Court. Amides the, it was proposed that the judge of the Probate Court Monti be one of the judges of the Divorce Court, indeed ho was to be the Judge Ordi nary of that tribunal. Nola would the jurisdiction of thee i judge stop there. One of the great womb, of the day wee somebody who should have authority over the property of demand persons about whose wills there wee • depute. In such cases the property was neglected end very groat preju dice wee the result; but the present bill would give the judge power to appoint an ail interim manager of the per sonalty, and an ad interim receiver of the real estate. (Hear, hear.) These were the principal functions which the new court would have to discharge, and they would make up its daily occupation. With regard to tho officers of the new tribunal, It Ina proposed that they should, as far as poesible, conoiet of the officers of the old courte. As for se was practicable the officers of the Prerogative Court would be transferred to the new court, and the diocesan regintrare would be transferred to the now district registries. The rela tions between the metmpoliton registry and those in the country would demand epecial attention in committee, (Me question that might arise would be whether the papers should be sent from the district registries to the London office Wore they were finally admitted? (Hese hear.) On ninsidera lien, however, it had not been considered absolutely neces sary that that should be done; and it would manifest ly Wl4llll delay, and likewise some additional expense. Some altera tion would be necessary in the matter of caveats, and he amulet introduce a dame to prevent the possibility at • will being proved in one court while there was a caveat against it in another. It was rammed that all the wafting wille Mould be collected la one great plane, and that mete* of the wills which in future would be filed in the diotriet regietries should also be placed with them. The bill proposed also to mike arrange mantel which in a few years would lay the foundation fur a miry important means of obtaining information as to titles. It wee proposed that indexes of all grille should be kept in all the district registrim Fie well as in Edinburgh and in Dublin. By th at means great'facilities would be given for retaining knowledge of facts, which at present could only be arrived at by tethous and protracted search. Another objeet of the bill wee to provide a place of deposit for the wills of persons in their life.tinie, which it was expected woo ld in many cases be found a great convenience. In a word, there was remedy my inconvenience which bad been reported upon by the dif ferent commimioners with which the measure did not attempt, and he hoped it would be found anecesefully, to deal. He wow came to a more painful subject—the summer in which he proposed to deal with the permits who held offices that avails, abolished by the bill. Nevertheless, so long ago se ISlStesesies hood been given to these parties that the offices they held were condemned. By the statute of the Gib and William IV. it was provided that no compensation should bo given to any Milne of the ecclesiastical mune, except the judge and registrar of the Metropolitan Court or Canterbury, in the event of these offices being sholiabed ; and that warning hed been over and over again reiterated. The right hon. baronet (Sir J. Graham) had dietineuishod himself by his efforts to uproot these mischievous modem lions, and during the time he was in office the enactment to which he had referred was repealed in the act of the 10th and 11th of her present Majesty. He preened that those who were in office anterior to the oth and 7th of William IV. should receive full compensation. Thom who had received their appointments after that date he could not bear to see turned adrift without compensation. It sea therefore proposed that they should be compensated on this principle, namely, that they should be regarded as holding their appoiutments during pleasure, and that on that footing they Mould 'votive compensation. In the one ems the twew would be entitled ail if they held a freehold °aloe; in the other they would be regarded m appointed during pleasure, and would be dealt with in a very different manner. There was another elms of very meritorious persona who would be provided for, and whose situation excited in him • great deal of sympathy—he meant the managing clerks in the registry of Canterbury. Thom who had served fifteen years in that capacity would be compensated under the pro visions of the bill; and it would be for the house to say whether and how far that proposal Mould be extended. He now came to the proctor.. Tho bill proposed that they should stilt retain a monopoly of the common form metes.. The amount of that businees would be very much increased by the bill, for all the non-conten tious busies.' in the country where the property exceeded 1,5001. would pass through their hand,. At present only one-third of the common form business was transacted in the Prerogative Court, end the house would thus be able to form an opinion how far they would be effected by the pro posed change. Halides, under the present gystein, where the real estate was large and the personalty mull, the case went in great nominee to the courts of common law; but under the bill all estates exceeding 1,5001, even if partially made up of reel property, would go through the new court. Remeutbering, too, how constantly business ran in the wee channel se that in which it had been accustomed to flow, ho believed that the position of these gentlemen would rather be improved then otherwise by the bill. In the former bile which ho had introduced he proposed to este- LEA their monopoly, and he provided • measure of corn. penestion. He proposed that the proctors should receive an annuity of one half their average gem. But he was unable to please them by that propmition. and it was chiefly owing to their reeistanee that the bill was lost. The me sent plan, however, was in part what they bed then:melees ; and he could not therefore feel the slightest re- Inc in reining upon the house the adoption of the bill. It would be idle fur the house to assume to prophesy a l o ss to these persona, and vote away the public money as compel:me lion. But it was impossible to recognise the right of pre ti tiouces to compensistion. If there were improvements in the law, giving greater eimplicity end facility, was the pmeti tioner to haven vested right in delay, and evil, and suffering? (Hear, hear.) What would be thought of the medical man who claimed a vested right in protracted suffering and dis ease ? (Hear, hear.) As the office remained there woo no ground on which compensation could be claimed. The only other case of compensation was one already provided for by parliament—the annuity to Viscount Tenterden secured by the net of 9 George IV. He had now stated all that related to the principle of the hill; on matters of detail hon. members might differ, and these would be open to amendment. Though the measure was by no mean, of so large end comprehensive a character as the former ones, it would be more entitled to general approval ; it we, more fair and just, and would succeed in remov ing the inconveniences that heed been complained of for the bee thirty yearn. Under there ciecumstanres be hoped the house would agree to the second reading. (Hone, hear.) ?dr. lIENLEY said ho had had the honour to be a member of the commission referred to, whose recommendations the bill carried out. Ile had, therefore, great pleasure in second ing the motion for the emend reading. lie had always thought that there were four points on which alteration was required. The country had long called out for an arrange isent by which a will, when once declared valid, Mould la held to both as to real and preemie' property. There eases were not numerous, but the smallness of the number proved how great was the grievance. In fact, the conten tious business was infinitesimally small ; and the government had done wisely in directing their attention to the common form business. For what was called the doctrine of bona notabilia, the country had long called out for • remedy; and this the bill supplied. Another greet improvement was the providing of a general index. (Hear, hear.) Years might elapse before much benefit was derived from this; but if it could be made applicable to the wills of 40 years post, according to the plan °t hole Trevor. of Somer set noose, it would be a great boon to the existing genera tion. The system of local jurisdiction, giving the public the opportunity of dealing with wills at their own doers, ee it were, was a moot valuable improvement. The bill would create little disturbance, while it effected much good; end this was great renommendstion. lie thought the home and the country were indebted to the Attorney-General for yielding hie own views, which were in favour of a mere theoretically perfect measure, to the requirements of the public. (Hear, hear.) As to the constitution of tho Court of Probate, it might be • matter of con ridesation whether it was wise to load it with the business of the Court of Admiralty; but that was a mere question of detail. Another advantage conferred by the bill was that property would be taken care of during litigation ; this was a greet boon to the public. He doubted the pro priety of the provision for transmitting wills proved before this time ; there was a greet feeling in the country against it • and he thought it desirable that these evidences of title. relating as many of then did to the poor roans cottage, .9
