Lord REDE3DALE rose, pursuant to notice, to move that the following pimps from the report from the select committee on the roeignotioo by Mr. Edmunds of certain edam, and ma the peolsoe panted to him by this bones, be read :—" The oornmittero have summed the chairman of committees es to the knowledge by the members of the select committee (which be &aoudad) of any elecumstasess which might climatal* Mr. Edmunds to • pension. If* stated that there was 'a general knowledge era general impreecios on the part of mot of the members of the committee. that in consequence of certain pecuniary transactions In whirls Mr. Ramona had be** concerned in the Patent Mos he had resigned his appointment in 'Bat' (be added) ' the petition was presented to the hone* without observation, and so order we. made directing the emanates to inquire into it. We bad only the facts stated in the petition which was referred to us, and upon gumbo ts we had to inquire what pension hir.Edmunds should be oonsidered Goaded to.' It ia to be regretted that the cornn mate* did sot comaider it to be their duty India the circum stoma to act upon their general knowledge or impression so far m to interpose some delay before the question was finally disposed of in favour of • pension, which, bed the eircumstances been fully known to them, would probably not have been recommended?' The clerk at the table (the Hon. Mr. Slinpby Bothell) .::: 46-fl bowie& read the eareme. Lord REDESDALE then moved the following resole then :-1. '• That the petition of Mr. Edmunds stating that after having served the hones seventeen yearn as reading clerk and clerk of the private committees he desired to re tire, and praying the house to grant him such illumine as to their lor3ships may seem fit, having been promoted on Tuesday, the 14th February, by the Lord Chaecellor without any comment being made thereon by him or any other mem her of the government present on that ormasion, and referred to the select committee on the office of clerk of the parlia ments without any special order or instruction is relation thereto, that committee, whoa they met OD Thursday , 16th February (Mr. Edmunds' resignation baying bees already accepted by the house), bad no question to deter- mine on the petition so refined to them but the amount of retiring pension to which he was entitled, and would have exceeded their duty if, without special instruction from the louse, they had proceeded to inquire into his cooduat In say matter unconnected with his duties in this house 2. **That the report having been presented on Friday, the 17th February, was ordered to be laid ea limitable, and was not agreed to until Friday, the 24th February, whereby sufficient ' delay was interposed before the question was finally disposed of it favour of the pension 'for any lord acquainted with circumstances which ought to have been knowa to the house before the report was adopted, to have Untie hi the same under the consideration of the house." So far (said the noble lord) were the select committee from being aware that serious charges were still hanging over the bead of Mr. Edmunds when his petition for a pension was presented by a member of the government, that they did not even think there was any rum, for his resigna tion of his poet io the House of Lords. Not only had the committee no official knowledge of what afterwards trans pired, but, in fact, the real impression on the minds of the members of the committee was that Mr. Edmunds bad nellisfied all the claim, against him with regard to his al leged deficiescise in the Patina-office. They certainly knew nothing of there then being serious claims still existing smiled Mr. Edmunds. Only the government could have known of the existence and extent of those claims, and yet the petition of Mr. Edmunds to be allowed • retiring pension was presented by • member of the government, without the slightest intimation to their lordships' com mittee that there existed any reason why the pension should not V• duly awarded ancedieg to custom. He °m oldered that the week which elapsed before the recom mendation of the select committee was acted upon by their lordship gave the members of her Maje.ty's government ample time in which to oppose it had they so thought it. It was idle to say that other members of their lordships' hum ought or even could have opposed it, for they could not shut their eyes to the fact that it was the members of her Majesty's government done who ware fully possessed of every fact connected with the case of Mr. Edmund& He considered that the extracts which had been read to their locdsblys condemned the select committee for • fault which most certainly could not with justice be attributed to them. and for this reason he treated their lordships would adopt the resolutions of which he had given notice. Lord GELNVILLE said that the onerous duty of pre- paring the report whiclo had been impugned was one of the most paioful kind, and though all the members of the coa stlines were determined to do their duty, they certainly I bed no wish to go one step beyond in the direction of severity, and be had had the honour of serving with any committee which bad evinced a more conscientious de sire to elicit without prejudice every fact which bore upon the case. With regard to the opinion expressed by the committee, all that their report had done was to express repot that the select committee had not takes more time before they asked the house to act on their recommends. him Why, the fact was that Lord Redesdale bad himself proposed such • delay to the select committee, and had been overruled. He entirely acquitted Lord Ithdesdale from any suspicion of • desire to deceive the bones, but for a esonnmrnate man of limner, such as be nodeubtedly was, he went • very clumsy way about letting the house know why even the week's delay was taken before the reso lution granting the pension was recorded oto their minutes. Be hoped the house would not by adopting Lord Rides dale's resolution stultify the carefully prepared report of their committee. The Earl of HARDWICKE said he wu very much struck with the position in which the house was placed. If there, were any fault he thought it bad been oommitted by the beau and not by the committee. It was for the house to determine whether Mr. Edmunds was to have a pension. Many of their lordships had • kitowledge of the eircum• stances, but be for one felt himself injured when he read in the newspapers that he was • party to granting this pen- mien to • person who had bean guilty of defaleatioe. He bed never heard of it. What he knew of Mr. ifdmuade wee as a public servant, and in that capacity be had known him for many years, end always thought him • respectable man. He should my that those who knew of the delinquency of Mr. Ed - I mends were the parties who should have mind the attention I of the house to it. His noble f n eod the President of the ' Council was the man who mom properly should have called . the attention of the house to the character of Mr. Edniuude than the chairman of the committee. He understood that the noble earl (Earl Grenville) was aware of the delin quencies of this mem. For himself he had not heard even the public mood. Lord EVEBELEY said be felt grateful to his noble friend for introd the matter to the hoc" he elball, he felt that would be attached to the meamittes, sad he also thought that the re port of the committee would sanction • very lax sad irregular practice. He believed that the first resolution would go to establish a rule of the house which was import. ant. The second resolutioa he thought of lea insportacce, sad if his sable friend thought fit to withdraw it, be ea the whole that was the most advisable course to pursue. The Earl of WICKLOW said it appeared to him that Ike difficulty is which the committee load been involved in this case arose entirely from the course pursued by the noble and learned lord in the woolsack is not stating the facts within his kaowledge, es presenting the petition. Lord LYVEDEN said he hoped they would not remedy ewe error by falling into another, which they would do by adapting the resolution of the chairman of committees. The , meolution went to this, that when a petition foe • periee was referred to a committee they could only cos- eider the amount of the peados, and not the amm eter:es. He remembered years ago, when he woe at the Tree/my, it smiths Treesip, constant practi ce to inquire into the character of • mum who applied for a pension, red if he bed held two offices, his *iodine with reference to both wield have been equired into. The *obi* lord said it ear most important that they should stand well with the public.

He reociroweedvd that " the previous question " should be stored. LAM RUSSELL vindicated the conduct of the cabinet with reseed to what had been done in the case. It never was made a cabled question whether. if Mr. Edmunds ap plied for a pension, the Lord Chanoellor was to oppose it. Thal queition had never been brought before the cabinet in any way. If it had been be was sure that the answer of his epilogues would have been to direct the Lord Obsaosilor to lay all the facts of the core be fore the committee appointed to decide as the pension. The report of the select committee granting the pension had never been printed, and he was sure many members of their lordship's hones wen quite as much surprised as himself and other members of the government when they found out what bad been doe, and that a retiring allow ance had been panted to one so little entitled to it as Mr. Eilmunds, and granted apparently with the unanimous con sent of their lordships. The Marquis of BATH treasured the silo» of the mem bers of the government in regard to this case, and de fended the committee width had recommended the granting of the pensioe and which be maintained had been pox , pool, kept in 'the dark. The slightest private intimation to any of the members of that committee would have been »Monet to have saved all this most *taut embosses meat. It wee sought sow to make the committee a soaps goat to save the members of the government. After a few words from Lad liorsowor and the Duke of Sokeuer, Lord REDERDALE, after thanking the noble lords for the manor in which be had been personally spoken of, said that, for himself, he was willing to accept the tone which the house bad taken, and should sot prom his resolu tion to a division. (Hear, bear.) His feelings bad been satisfied by the manner in which the question had been treated by the house, and be trusted that the other mem bers of the committee would feel equally sathdied. (Hear, hear.) The previous question was then put and agreed to. Lard WYNFO - RD presented a petition from Mr. Edmunds, stating that be bad been taken by . surprise by the motion given by Earl Granville, for rescinding his pension ; that heretofore he bad bad to contend unaided against greet legal ability, and preying that he might be beard by counsel at the bar against such resolution. The Roble lord said that under the circumstances, he did not think the prayer of the petition altogether unreasonable. Thebonse was not at this moment in a position to giveajudg meat in the matter. Whatever might have been the errors of this gentleman, be bad withheld no information from the committee which it was in his power to give, and be bad made admissions which if he had had legal advice be would sot have made. Earl GRANVILLE then rose, according to adios, to pro pose the following resolution To move to rescind the resolution of the house of the 24th February agreeing to the report of the committee on the office of the clerk of the parliaments and deco of pottiness usher of the Week rod, made on the 17th of February, so fez as relates to the recommendation of the said committee that a retiring provision of 13004 pew annum should be allowed to Leonard Edmunds, Esq. He would not detain the home with many remarks, but he felt that he had a most painful duty to perform. The com mittee had reported on the several ch a rges made &Oast Mr. Edmonds. Oo some charges they bad given no opinion, but they had reported that if the whole of the facts had been before them they would great of a passion. The odds earl thee quoted pampa from the report of the committee es to the guilt of Mr. Edmunds with regard to the appropriation to bra owe use of tunnies which he ought to have paid into her Majesty's Treasury. He wished to say tothirsu to aggravate the charges against this unfortunate gentleman, who had been for so many years in oPromunication with their lordships, both in that house and in committees upstairs, but for the sake of public morality and the honour of that house be felt boned to move that the order granting this pension be reschoded. Lord RIDE:SHALE said he was always anxious the pro- osedinp of their lordthipa' house should be governed be the strictest justice, and he therefore thought that when a man under such circumstances prayed to be heard, some arrangement should be made for that purpose. The Earl of DONOUGHMORE hoped the course pro posed to be taken bad bees decided under legal advice. Ultimately the motion was put by the Lord Chancellor, and carried neon. con. Their lordships then adjourned at ten minutes to Bias o'clock. HOUSE OF 001d310278.—Tv OIDLY, MAT 9. The &mmane took the chair shortly before 4 o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS.

THE CASE OF MR. MICHELL. The &dimmed debate ea the report of the oommittes on the signatures to the petition' io favour of the claims of Ascent jah, Nawab of the Centatia, was resumed by the Arroamr-Garmac, who said that, having carefully read and weighed the bearings of the evidence, he was satisfied that the iequiry had been 000 ducted with a sincere desire on the part of the committee to do jastice to George Morris Michell, who war charged with having himself fabricated and knowingly procured other fabricated signatures to several of the petitions. He suggested, however, that the wisrtsad simplest course of proceeding would be to adopt the mood meat o Lord R. Cecil, to War the report back to the com pitee,ed with an la/traction to take to the petition of Michell resent on the previous day in their coesiderstion. Mr. C. FORSTER, who had mowed that Miehell hid been guilty of a breach of privilege, expressed his readiasea to acquiesce in this &marmot:li. Some discussion followed. and ultimately the motion of Mr. Faster was withdrawn, and the amendment of Lord R. Moil, with the addendum suggested by the Attormy- Oseersi, agreed to. RAILWAY TRAINS.--COMMUNICATION BETWEEN GUAEOS elfin PASSENGERS. Sir W. GALLWEY rose to move that it was 'the opinion of the bonne that the safety of the public required that, pending the report of the royal commission, some imme• died provision should be made for compelling railway com panies to make arrangement' for establishing • proper com panies between guards and passengers. Mr. LEFROY seconded the motion. Mr. H. S. THOMPSON said the honourable gentle ' men bed bed discreet enough not to offer any suggestion Iby width this motion could be carried into effect The has. gentleman expected the house to legislate, but he bad not pointed out is what manner it was to do so. He beiseml that there wee an extensive feeliog out of doors in ,spud to the question of safe railway travelling, and be would therefore point out what the railway directors bad 'Meowed to do with a view of Sadist a remedy for the evils complained of. (Hear.) The des was this, that the committee of the Clearing-house reported that no remedy had been discovered which could be relied upon, or whisk It would be desirable to generally recommend. Some of the companies would continue to test the mod prominent bresotions which should be discovered. He would remind hoe. member' that if trains were stopped by passengers at any time, It would expose the whole of the passengers to the greatest risk and danger. (Hear, hear.) He hoped the motion would be withdrawn. Mr. B. COCHRANE did sot think it would be possible for the house to agree to such • motion as this, when the boa gentleman had not suggested what would be • proper lOOleasnicatino between guards and passengers. Mr. M. GIBSON was sure the hon. baronet opposite did ad wish to iesinuate that he was indiffereat to the dampers to which passenger wed exposed in the MOO tO which he bad referred, where they expected every ssomest to be killed without having the power to arrest the aelestime of the company's servant.. He sympathised very moth with the unfortunate position of those passengers and so far from the Board of Trade being indi ff erent to the whole question, it had bed repeatedly brought before them —net perhaps ea much by kris deputatioas as by ormeneu. 'dittoes seat to the 'devilment from different parts of the country, and by travellers. The subject also bad been dis eased two or three times In the house, having bees brought under its attention by the hon. member for West Norfolk. It was, of course, the duty of the board to take public feeling, which existed in the country, on the question, and to bring the subject under the attention of the railway companies. Accordingly. towards the end of Jape last you a letter was addressed by the board to every railway company in the kingdom, calling atteetion to the complaints which had bees coade, and askieg them to take into consideration she adoption of some means to meet the evils complained of, and some attempt made to allay the sense of insecurity evidently felt by the travelling public. In ooesequence of that circular the subject was referred to the Clearing-house, which was, in fast, • coofereed of railway meager.., representing pretty seedy all the railway oompaoies of the kingdom, sad the general railway interest. They selected • sub•oommittee, composed of the most competent managers, to consider this question. That sub-committee had made • report, which had been subsequently eonfirmed, end had met with the coneurreoce of the railway Of =MOM generally, so that there was acme reason to believe that they were about to adopt— Indmd, be might say they had undertaken bona fide to carry Into execution—memo plan which would enable passengers to communicate with guards. (Hear, hear.) They bad sot themselves any particular plan, dead" they pledged e to dtbeir report, with great justice, that before any plan could be generally adopted it was absolutely doseeary that It should be tested on some of the principal railways, before its value could be ascertained and &a:&d upon. That was the position of the ode at preempt. Alter further dismissive, Sir W. GALLWILY in reply mid that as the hods ap t° consist mainly of railway directors he did not Whisk he had much chaste of carrying his motion He expressed his williameas to withdraw his motion upon the pledge given by the President of the Board of Trade. Mr. M. GIBSON had gives no pledge whatever ; what he bad stated was that the railway companies in their reply had remedied the desirableness of having means of ammo nication between the ;dodgers and guard, to be exercised under (wade limitations, and he understood that they undertook if it turned out to be practicable to carry into effect some plan for the purpose. If the hon. baronet cloyed for the report it would be produced. The motion was then withdrawn. MINERS (GREAT BRITAIN). Mr. AYRTON moved for a select committee to inquire Into the operation of the ads for the regulation sod itispec• I don of mines, end the allegations of the petitions presented to thalamus upon the subject from the miners of Great Britain. He presented petitions from many thousands of miners in addition to those already presented on the subject. Mr G. GREY said a good many petitions had been pro moted daring the premed session from miners oomplainiog of what they conceived to be some defects in the acts for the regulation and inspeetiou of mines, and he thought those complaints • very St subject for inquiry. He doubted whether the committee would, make mach progress during the present session, but he bad no objection to the appoint- ment of the committee. The motion was aped to.
