CdARITABLE FOUNDATIONS. On the Order tit the Day having been read for the third reading of the Charitable Foundations Mr. BROUGIIAM said, the Bill before the [louse came very near the original Bill funned by himself, which lie wished to have paned lan Session, but which had undergone various and most insiertal alterations before being enacted into a law. Like . that migniel Bill, this changed the number of Sti pendiary Commissioners necessary to constitute a Board from three to two; thus diminishing the ex pense attendant on each Board discharging its Insidious. and increasing their number. For whereas, by the Act of last Session, it was neces. wiry to add one honorary Commissiouer to the paid ones to form three Board', the last alone now were sufficient to constitute live Boards, which could sit and carry on their inquiries at the same time. Then, in the present Bill, power was given to the Commissioners to send for persons, pullers, and vecords, which. though it did not extend so far as the provision of his Bill, would probably be found effectual for its object, inasmuch as the Commis. stoners were in effect armed with authority to inflict a line in carer of resistance. But the greatest im provement in the measure consisted in its retentio; she inquiriea of the Commissioners to charities gem rally. instead of limning them, as before, to these contiected with purposes of education. Whet the Cousinisbioners Its(' already done held out a consul. lu g prospect of what might yet be expected from slam. They had already, besides having entered into the examination of others, completed ithe in vestigation of, and made a report on, tvro•lstruelred nod sixty cases. But he calculated that by means. of the additionsl Boards, the Commissioners would in future be enabled In investigste above twelve hundred in a year ; and he thought that the con sequences of what had been yet done, would, th retily, and indirectly. greatly facilitate the uh p-cte of the Bill. He thought it a principle which etight to lie acted on, to make the whale of the *primes incurred in the investigation fall in the end on the funds recovered. He had computed that iii mue CUtilltieet containing a population 'of shwa a indium and a half, or one-sixth of the whole populismo) of England, the cumber of en dowments for purposes of education was seven hundred and eight). st , 4. the value of their funds twentl -six thousand tire hundred pounds, which iesi, doing gathered 110111) parochial returns. Ras. judging from former experience, a very inadequate 111 , " statement of their inzome. Now these taLts foituA a perfect justification of the Measures taken on the subject by the House. There were very few pages in the Report which did not contain observations on ithus.s by schoolmasters or trustees, or defects no eunie way or other in the machinery of the founda tions inquired tido. It appeared, that near lout thon sand a 3 car would be added to the funds of one of the &chords reported on. These fonds, amounting to lour thoustiod pounds atitivally, bad been in the hands of a eert sin company, who were the trustees, since the reign of nue of the Edwards. out of which they had been accoistomed to allow but four hundred a year to support the school, nod con tended that the remainder was their own right. The Report stated different nowtoosees of bowel', ant incomes, doomed to atf,ird the meant; of eleemosynary instruction, eijoyed by school masters solely employed in receiving pupils fur the former year.
