PRIP MONEY MARKET D COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. CITY, Two O'CLOCK. During the last few days the transactions in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets have not been extensive, and prices in most instances have slightly receded. Tea, however, has been at steady quotations. For the finer qualities of sugar there was a fair inquiry, at a decline of about 6d. per cwt. ; other descriptions were inactive. Coffee met a moderate sale at about previous values. Rice has exhibited considerable activity, and the better sorts have improved 3d. per cwt. Saltpetre has been firm, and tallow dull. P.Y.C. on the spot is now quoted 51s. ; July to September, 50s. 6d. ; and last three months, 50s. 3d. per cwt. Accounts from Liverpool report that the Cotton Market yesterday exhibited a very firm appear ance, and . prices of all descriptions were fully main tained. The sales amounted to 10,000 bales, 2,000 of which were taken by the speculators, and 1,000 by exporters. The Railway Share Market closed quietly, and quotations were unaltered. The large withdrawal of gold from the Bank of England yesterday, viz., 120,0001., bas caused some remark in financial and speculative circles, and there can he no doubt that further amounts will be shortly exported to France, not on account of silver purchases but in liquidation of commercial balances. The Australian supplies will probably furnish the greater part of what is required, and as the American exchange is turning in our favour, and remittances are likely to be resumed, the stock of bullion at the national establishment may not experience any great diminution. During the last few days large quantities of gold coin have been received from the provinces, and the Scotch banks, it is understood, have been furwarding a large number of sovereigns. The next Bank re turn is not likely to show a very unfavourable movement in the bullion ; on the contrary, many anticipate a slight augmentation. Silver has been rather more in demand during the last few days, owing to the preparations for the consignments by the Pera. There was a meeting of the London Dock Com pany to-day—Mr. John Cattley in the chair. It appeared from the report that the business of the last half year had been favourable, and left a balance of 4,0001. more in favour of the company than on the,last occasion. The total biulance in favour of the company was 240,0291. A dividend of 2/. 108, per cent. for the half year was Cleclared. In reply to a shareholder, the secretary said that the com pany was fully ensured for the loss that had occurred through the late fire- The report was adopted. There is no improvement in the English Stock Mat ket, business being dull and the quotations heavy. Attention is chiefly directed to the pre paratory arrangements connected with the ap proaching I:quidatim. Consa!is are about per cent. lower, but the market bei:ig in such a languid state, a few operations either way produce an im pression.

[ADVERTISEMENTI—TEMILEY'S FOOD FOR CATTLE.-- It is only a short time since this siogulariy efficaciou s article of animal diet, first made its appearance ; and already its celebrity is world-wide. It has been a sub ject of wouder, and has puzzled many a brain to explain how this has been brought about,. Yet when r.•e are acquainted with a few facts concerning the food, our wonder will cease A few days tires, a g:?ttleniari, wrote, stating► that he had a horse which wee a " perfect bag Of bones." Ho tried all kinds of things to get the animal into condition, but in vain. He then boucbt some of Thorley's food ; and he says the effect was won derful. The horse rapidly grew fat, and in the course of a few weeks, had gained no less than 12 stones. Again we find at the late agricultural shows at Birmingham, Cardiff, Sv.!., the animals which carried aEf the highest prrss, bad been partly fed with Thorley'x food for cattle. Such facts speak for themselves, and we are forced to the conclusion, that its celebrity arises solely from its ouwn intrinsic merits, and the great demand for it can proceed alone from the good opinion and testimony of those who have tried it. All parties interested in horses and cattle wilt do well to apply to 77, Nowgate treet, London, for a panoph'et, which is seiat post-free. SH A.3Z MAR .. y DTs (This Day). j Paid BAIL WA Y. xAtiwAr..

Mr. GREGSON did not think the whole time of the members of the council would be required. They would only have to attend the board once a week, and he thought 5001. a year would be sufficient. For that and the patronage attached to the office, he thought efficient men would be found. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that, although the members of the council would have to meet once a week in a council, a daily attendance of many hours would be required of them in addition. There were many men who were not habitually resident in London, who would be very efficient members of the council, and their compulsory residence would entail upon them great expense. Mr. V. SMITH said if first•rate men were to be ap pointed members of the council, 1,2001. or oven 2,0001. a year would int be too large a sum for them, as they would be equal to privy councillors and men holding hi?h office in the State. Bu. be did not think that would be the condition .of the council. The Directors of the East India Company were in possession of 5001. a year with patronage ; and he never heard that those gentlemen complained of the inadequacy of their salaries. If the East India Directors elected four of the gentlemen already Directors who would not attend more than once a week from their other pursuits, 5001 a year would be enough for them ; while for: the nominees of the Crown he admitted 1,2001. a year would not be too much. • Lord STANLEY thought two scales of salary objec— tionable. It was not the intention of the bill to bind the persons appointed on the council to give up the whole' of their time and to abandon every other support; but it would be expected of them that they should glVe up as much time as the performance of the duties would kr. LOWE said the only difficulty the committee was in was that they were called upon to asssess the salAry for duties on the nature of which they had no in ferina:ien. If the duties were to be those of the C iurt of Directors he thought 5001. a-year would be sufficient, but if the dneies were to be these of a permanent secretary in a puelic office he considered that 1,200/. iseyear would be by no means exorbitant. He deplored the reckless manner in which mo .ey was squandered away in that house —money that would spread education over whole districts and mi igate the horrors of a perverse religion, and ail this to be wrung out of the sweat and blood of a miserably oppressed people. (Hear, hear.) C done' SYKES (Director) spoke of the vast amount of business theDireceors of the Eset India Company bad to discharge. He considered 8001. or 1,0001. aye :r would be sufficient, and that it should be considered an honorarium Mr. M. MILNES considered 1 2001. a year not too much for the members of the council, Mr, WHITE thought the work would be as well done by men at 5001 a year as at 1,2001 a year. Mr. WILLIAMS considered 5001. a year salary suf ficient, especially as the patronage was valued in 1853 as worth 6,080/. R e eear. (Oh, Oh I) The finances of India were in that embarrassed state that, if they a ,n• tinned tht.i pr .iligate system of expenditure, the re-- 'eon:oes of E gland would bo called upon to meet it, and they would tave to tax the people of England to make up the defici , ney of India. Lord,JoaN , l3. - USSELL considered the , deeisiod bf the committee, giving parroeage to the council, and dei priviegeeletne i freemeeeate in that. house, had greatlyir, ereased the difficultiee of the subject. If the °einem Of the hon, member for Lambeth was correct in reference te the patronage, he (Lord J. Pi:seen) feared it would reeeit injueouelv to India On the whole, he thought 1,2001, a-year was not too much if they were tole:lye the best men, and guard against the misapplication of the, patronage, Sir J GRAHAM said, that the bill and the amend tuente, coupled, with the statements of the members of her filejesty'a Government, he presumed the contic,l would have daily ,duties to discharge. (Hear.) It ap• peered to him teat it was the inteneme of her Her Ma. j sityi Government to divide the work into committees sot j-ct to the direction of the Provident of the Cituncil. The impression on the minds of hon. members with re fereuce to the bid was ihat if eleceed to the cruneil they must devete their ...hole time to the dutiea of their office, and he had beet, informed by Captain Sheppard, at pre sent a director, chairman of the Hudson's Bey Comp my d deputy chairman of the Trinity 11 teal, that if Le were e!oeted memberol the cJuncil be shou:d consider himself bound to resign Viose tvio offices. (Lien, hear ) He bad no dire to spend ore rupee more than was necei &;,ry, to advauce . the happiness of the people of iudia ' and he thought unthiug would conduce m o r e t , , wards the attainwent of tbst ojeet than by having rceil constituted Government in this conotty. On the *bole, be considered the sum named in the bill not too much for the members of the council, understanding Oat the devnVon of time meant such reasonable attend.. anc,t as thr PresideNt of the Council might requiro. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCFIEQUER said it _ _ was not desirable to introduce into the bill words rividly preventing the members of the council from per f 'min other duties, but to leave it to the President of the Council to deuce their duties and alendance, ac cording to the necessities of the case. The di-p,sal of their• time to the duCes of the office would not preclude the members of the council from attending to other • duties, It would, however, be a matter of election, whether gentlemen would place theirtimeat the di• petal of the office, or adhere to their counting-houses duties in a rigid manner. He thought, -however, the members of toe council,- altio-mgh called on to place their time at the disposal of their "fficee, would permit them to maintain, in a modified form, their relation with the pursuits that had heretofore entirely absot bed their lives. He c•wsidered a salary cf 1,2001. a•}•ear by no means too much. The subjt.ct was a very difficult one. They had beard many sums men tioned, and the bon. memberfor Aberdeen bad said thNt whilst 800/, a-year would be at, honorarium, 1,200/, a-year would be an insult. (Hear, beer, and laughter.) He considered the metnbers of the council ought not to be paid less than the Lords of the Treasury. (Divide.) Sir G. C. LEWIS c .nsidered the difficulty of fixing the amount of ralary arose from the large number of mut:cilium He supported the.ctllTA named by the Go vetnment in the hil', but sugpsted a modification el the clause, to the effect that the sum should not txceed 1,2001., which would enable the Government at any Suture time to adapt the paiary to the actual duties hereat , er t.' be discharged by the members of the council. Lord STANLEY. said it was better to fix the sum, and if it was found hereafter there was a diminu ion of duties, be thought it would be better for the Gwarn• went of. the day to come to Parliament for a bill to rd duce the members of the council rather than provide in the hill for a reduction of sal+iy. After some further conversation, Mr. COLLIER ex pressed his wish L.) withdra w his amendment, but it was objected to by the committee. . . - - After a few words frmn Mr. Cenineham, Sir E. Perry, Sir J. Elphbastone, Mr. L me, Mr. C. x, and Mr. Elliott, e- The committee divided. The numbers we r*— - For the amendment Against it " Majority --167 The &awe, after some further discussion fixing the salary at 1,2001. a-year, was agreed to. On clause 14, which provides retiring pensions after 10 years' service, Sir F. BARING urged there should be a uniformity of retiring pensions. A man should not be induced to continue in office longer than he was capable of effi ciently discharging the chalet., with a view of obtaining a large pension. , Mr. RICH Moved, as an amendment, that the period of retirement should be at the end of 15 years instead of 10 years, Lord STANLEY &fended the clause. Many men might be practically incapable of discharging' the duties at the end of 10 years ; whilst others might be able to do so at the end of 15 years. It was to meet the firmer case that the clause had been drawn an , .l. the distinction in amount made. There was as rauch.objection and abuse in getting men to resign, as there was in induc . ng them to hold office for the kigher pension ; but he thought the proposal in the clause was one that the com mittee might agree to. Mr. GLADSTONE objected to pension., except in cases where the country had had the benefit of she whole of a m an's services. He objewed to men coming back from India in the enjoyment ef pensions in respect of services rendered in tha country being put into offices, giving theta new titles, and after a shore-period of ger- , vice giving them claim to accumulation p•nsinee. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, said it was not the intention of her Majesty's Government to appoint men at present in tne enjoyment of Pensions for services in India. The object of the clause was to pre vent men who were disabl-d alter a certain period, and were unable to perform their duties, from hanging on to their situations and their salaries to the detriment of the government of India. Lord STANLEY said if the committee would take the clause as is stood, down to 5001. after 10 years' ser vice, he was ready to consent to the omission from the bill of the remainder of the clause. After some further-discussion, in Which Dlr. Ayrton, Mr. Elliott, and Mr. Mangles took p arr, Tne clause, amended as suggested b y T Stanley, was agreed to, a proviso being added relative to the reduction of the number of the council when Parliament might think fit. On the motion that &sues 1 4 , as amended stan', part of the bill, Mr. GLA.DSTONE said that at present, in reference to the directors of the East India. Company, her Ma jest's Government bad power to compel the resignation of a director from physical incapacity, and he was not disposed to surrender that princiPle- Lae thesught some provision' should be introduced into the bid, retaining that power relative to the number of the council. Lord STANLEY said it was provided for in the bill, by an address from both }louses Of Parliameet to the Crown for that purpose. Mr. GLADSTONE thought it objectionable. Mr. RICH said he would take the sense of the com mittee on the dance.

(Front the ,Gazette of this evening.) , ADMIRALTY, JUNE 30. tizspatebes, of which the following are copies, have been received by the Lords Commissioners of the Admi ralty from Captain Sotheby, 0.13., of her Majesty's ship Pearl, commanding a Naval Brigade in India : Igo. 85. Camp, liiptanennge, Goruckpore District, Ist May, 18:.;8. Sir —I have the honour to f o r war d you , f or th e informa tion of my Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, a report of the proceedings of a most successful and gallant attack on a body of rebels, posted at the villag e o f N uggur on th e 29th ultimo, by a tachment from this force, as per mar gin (92 'Naval Brigade, 150 of 13th Light Infantry, 60 Bengal Yeomanry Cavalry, 290 Goorkhes and Seikhs), uuder the. command of Major Cox, 13th Light Infantry, at which a portion of the Pearl's Naval Brigade took a very conspicuous part, under the charge of Lieutenant Grant, 11. N. Having sent an expedition the previous day to drive off a party of 400 rebels within a few miles of our camp, intel ligence was shortly afterwards received of another body of upwards of 1,000 (half of whom were Sopoys) having crossed the Gov a, and taken up a very strung position at the above-named place, about six miles from us. The detachment left at noon, and arrived at th e s p o t a t 2.30 Par, the men principally riding on elephants. They were received by a sharp fire of musketry from the dense jungle that nearly surroun Is the village. For the particulars of the attack I beg to forward Lieut. Grant's account of it. Major Cox has celled my attention to the skilful and quick manner in which that officer, assisted by Mr. C. F. Foot, Midshipman, managed the guns, which were so well directed by their Captains, that only one shell out of 35 tailed in striking the object. He has always rendered me most valuable assistance in this very unusual service, and 'is a most excellent officer. Lieutenant Pym, R.M.; is also reported to have led the Marines and Seamen most gallantly to the assault, assisted by Mr. J. G. Shearman, Engineer; as also Mr. Parkins, Gunner, in charge of the rocket ; and I beg most earnestly and humbly that you will be pleased to bring before the notice of my Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty tho names of these officers for promotion. Lieutenant Pym speaks very highly of Wm. Turner and Wm Bates, Gunners, Royal Ma r i ne A r till ery . The dispersion of these rebels was most timely per formed, as they were to have been j tined the following morning by 3,000 more from Tandak, in cpnceit with another large body in the north, for the invasion of the district, whilst in our front at Bawer there are about 5,000 more with five guns, The enemy left everything behin:l, including a pair of new sil It banners, with the Hindoo and Mabomedan colours blended together, apparently just made. I atu sorry to report my men and officers are much suf fering from fever, being somewhat unprepared for so long a campaign, and from their late harassing duties. This is the eighth time this field force has been in action, and the Pearl's Brigade guns the only Artillery attach- d to it, end until very lately the Lb igade were the only Ecropeens It is most gratifying to report the good behaviour of the men, being now as goo 1 artillerymen and soldie:s as formerly they were reamer. EDWARD S. SOTREBY, Captain R.N., Commanding Pearl's Naval Brigade. The Secretary of the Admiralty, London. (signed Camp Kaptangunge, May 1,1858. I have the honour to submit for you-- infor mation, the part taken by a detachment of her _Mej,sty's ship Pearl's Naval B r i ga d e, w ith a f orce Under, the ccmmand of M.l6r Cox, her Majesty's 'l34i Light Infantry, in ar. attack on the town and of Namur; nn the - 29th ult.: :.4 . flie detachment, consisting as p e r margin (Royal rines, 25; Seamen, 67; two 12-pounler howitzers; one ' 24-pounder rocket), left camp at noun, and after a hot march of seven miles, approached the west side of the town of Nuggur. A strong bo , ty of the 13th Light Infantry aed Saikhs weresent toeloar thej ungle on that side while the rest made a detour round to the north side. As wo came up we were received by a sharp rifle tire from a thick bamboo jungle, and from what appeared to be a lino of works in tido. We opened fire from the guns at a distance of 00 yards on the town, ancl a tope of trees to the ea3tward Of the place, where an outpost, of the enemy was lodged, who were immediately driven in. the direction of Major Cox, I slated ground about. 80 yards to my left frov!t, and directing Mr. Parkins with the tocket to fire steadily at that portion of the town where the enemy seemed in the gr :atest force. I kept up a ate .dy Jiro of shell at the diff.nvnt posts held by tno enemy. The In:rifles and seamen, tinder Lieut. Pym, were or dertil by Major Cox to attack on the right, cud by a simul taneous movement with tho rest of the force, the town and old fort were carried, the enemy relnatlog through the baurbao jungle, were pursued to the banks o. - a large jheel at the back of the phve, when all our wen acre recalled. I believe upwards of ;',O. dead bodies were counted in the village, but nia,uy more must Lave fallen in the jungle from the rifle practice. . - - - Lieut. Pyea speaks very highly of the forwardness and activity of Air. J. G. Sbearman, Engineer ; Mr. Foot, Mid shipman, with the guns, was very zeahola ; and Mr. Par kins, Gunner, rendered considerable assistance and made good practice with the rocket. I beg to enclose a list of casualties.— I have, &c., (Signed) HENRY D. GRANT, Lieutenant, in charge of Detachment of the Pearl's Naval Brigade. Captain Edward S.

Sir,—l have much gratification in reporting to you the adidtable behaviour of the officers, seamen, and marinas of that poi tion of the Pearl's Naval Brigade under H. D.

The tiowitzns and rockets were nribily and effectually got into action, ant were served with the greatest preci s sion under the immediate direction of that very able and efficient officer, Lieut.

JULY 2, ' • A r 7 • • - IMPERIAL PAITLTATiENT HOUSE OF LORDS.—•,(YESTEILDAY.) THE OATHS BILL. • - The Earl of DERBY said,—Before 'my noble iwd learned friend (Lord Lyndhurst) rises to move the second reading of the bill of which he has given notice, perbsOn your lordships will alio sr roe, though not st r i c tl y i n order, to say a few words upon the position in which the house stands with regard to the three bills which are tonight to be considered. But before Ido Bo I feel it my duty in a single sentence to express to your lord ships, and more especially to noble lords opposite, toy grateful thanks for the forbearance and courtesy with which they have submitted to my very involuntary ab sence, in consequence of an illness, from which I am now only imperfectly recovered. (Hear, hear.) I must also express my hope that no material public inconven ience has arisen or will arise from the postponement until I should be able to attend of some discussions from which I should be very sorry to be absent. (Hear, bear.) With respect to the question which is about to be brought under your lordships' notice, a bill passed through the House of Commons, and was submitted to your lord ships, for the alteraeion of certain oaths now required to be taken by meinbereof truth Houses of Parliament, and a clause was introduced in that bill, as it came up to your lordships, which dispensed with certain words of one of the oaths. Those clataes were struck out by your lordships, and the tell so amended was sent down to the o th er house. Toe House of Commons returned the bill, objecting to your lordships' amendments, and stating their reasons. Upon the second &sett sem of this bill is your lordships' house my noble and gallant friend very unexpectedly gave notice, on the day before the Whit suatide holy lays, of his intention to move an amend metit, without stating the na , ore or character of that amendment. On the first day at er the holydays my noble and gallant friend (the Earl of Lucan) moved a resolution substantially to this effect,—that the other house should have the power, by Act of Par liament, to (Aspens°, by a resolution cf the house, with the words " on the true teeth of a Christian, " _ in the case of members of th e Jewish persuasion: • That amendment took me and most of -your lordships by surprise. My noble and gallant friend having only given notice of his intention ou the day before the recess, and having brought forward his resolution on the first day after the hoLyclays, it was itnpoesible for any private communication to take place between members either on one side or ttse other, and we came to the discussion of an important amendment without the pos sibility of pre ious consultation or deliberation. Under these circumstances I took upon manelf to suggest to your lordships that the question brought forward ey my noble and gallant friend was one of too much importance to be decided on in an accidental discussion of an ieeendurent iu the last etags of a bid. I euggeeted to ‘ yoir Lordships that, it my noble and gallaut friend in tended to propose his amendment, it would be better done by a separate bill than by a lucre amendment. confess that in my opinion it would have been more satisfactory to your lordships and to the country if my noble and gallant friend bad been satisfied with the ex preAsion of his own opinion —with throwing a ut a sug .geetion that such a modification !alai' required, and had 'then left the other Heinee of - Perliaineet to eerie back the bill with the amend Dente so introduced, to alititt ye ur lor ?ship; migileatier; have . giviiri your as.ient. But the course which has been pursued Is that two bills have beer at roni,ht in—one by my noble and gallant friend (the •E ri cf Lucati) and another by may noble and learetcl friend (Lord Lyudhurst), than whoa) no one is more entitled t Oe heard on a subject to which he has devoted so much time and attention. (Cheers.) Upon looking at the two bills there does nut appear to be much difference in their provitsioree but in the framing of his bill my noble and learned friend yermits what may be coneidered an irregularity in the course e f Pails t mentary proceding, because a bill bits passed through all its stages her', arid roust eecesoiaily be communi cated Le the !Luse of CALI:110W, with the final decision of your lordships upon it. The bill of my noble aed learned friend, Lowever, takes steps to re-enact all the clauses tnat f ave been already pa. sad is the bill that has been before bete Howie. of Perliareent. The toll i f try nimble and gallant friend, on tee Co arary, tikes a uttlereet comet, and deals only ;vita tire viugte question of ena Bugg the House at Commons to deal by way of resolution with the question, and t dispense with some Wuede in this par ttcu'ar oath. I chutes that lam dispored to view with every favour the euggestein of my noble and gallant friend to wend down such an ensuring power to the House of Oentenone, and I think suca a course prefer able tie that puremal by my noble and gallant frieud. I think it would be far better to send down the first bill as it stand', and then to seed down the bill of my treble and gallant friend, dealing with the cage of the Jews as a separate measure. I confess, my lorda that I have cot altered my views is regard to the policy or inexpe diency of admitting the Je.ss as members of a Chri s ti a n .Legisfatere, hut, having carefully and anxiously consi dered the subject, I see that the proposal of my noble and gallant friend is the only possible solution of the difficulty whic'e bas existed for a period of ten year-. I see no other practical chance of bringing the to o Houses of Parliament into agrerrnent. Tae measure proposed by my noble and gallant friend is one that ceitaiuly maintaine the principle adopted by your lordship in dealing with this teetteure. It maintains the di gn ity o f your lordships hinge with regard to that portion of the question which is inure immediately subject to your . juriAlic•ion. It rasintaies the ist.v as it stands. at the present moment, but it enables the House of Commons, upon a question that ape cially relates to persons taking their seats in that house, to dispea,e with the words which stand in the way of what appeals to he the decided wish of that house. This solution appears to cue to afraid a practical and not unrea.onable mode of settling a (laced; and complicated question. And however much I regret the determination taken by the Hones of Common,, and the impassibility of maintaining invio late the principle for which your lordships' house has ever centendee, I confess I think there is less difficulty and less practical inconvenience and danger arising horn giving a limited eonsent to the views of the House of Cotemous, as embodied in the proposition of my neble and gallant friend, than in persisting in an opposition which all practical experience proves cannot be pushed beyond a certain limit between the two hoteree. While, therefore, on. the one baud, I object to the bill of soy noble and learned friend, arid while I cannot say that tae bill of my noble and gallant friend is not susceptible of and may not , indeed require same amendment, I shall be eatified, if it' come to a question of diaiding upon the cecoud reading, to give my support to the bill of my noble and gallant friend. My lords, it is with the greatest regret I feel that I may differ upon this question from many of those with whom I have agreed for many years. If upon this occasion these Mho have honoured me with their confidence find it impossible to adopt the course which I have recommended, I will only say for my own part that, c'ainaing from them that justice which I am ready to give in return, I t a'rre the course which I have adopted from no otaer feeling than a desire to see an amicable settlement between the two houses with regard to a question of grave interes', and with respect to which I see e a other solution. (Cheery.) .Lerd LYNDHURST—The ccuree recommended by my nob e trtend has taken me by surplice. Before I give an , .1-• we e to the coneiteretione which he has eug- e geieed it is uecessaey to make some explanation. Wh eu this eubjset was last before your lordship I listened with great attention and satisfitetion to the speech of my noble friend, who with that readiness of illustration and clearness of etatement tiyahich hu is characterised, shaped nut the c..urso which he said must be pursued iu order to put an end to the difference between the houses of Pariament. I c msidere 1 most carefully the sugges tion made by my noble friend, and I took it as the foun dation of the bill I have brought in. If your lordships will hark to the clauses you will fi n d t h a t they cores spendwith the suggestions of my noble friend. By the till I have brought in , if a member of either house come to the te.ble to be sworn, and says that he cannot con- ' scieptiously make' the declaration on the true faith of Ch istian, those words are to be struck out of the oath, • rind the taking of the oa'll with that omission will - • be a sufficient -taking of the oath. That, my lords, is the wain c'auae of the bill that I have brought in. My noble friend, it is true, did not pledge himself to support a bill 50 drawn, but he expressed him - s if stn otigly is favour of such a measure. I will read to your lordships a report of what fell from my noble friend, which accords exactly with my own recollections of what • took place. Woe' lam now stating is said in my own jeetification, in presenting the bill in the form in which it now appear,. Ido not read this in any controversial spirit, but in explanation. My noble friend, speaking of the areendarect of my noble and gallant friend, ex pressed himself. in these terms " I could better understand it (the amendment) had he introduced into the latter portiOn of the clause the same provision which is to be found in the brat part, and pro vided that in the case of any person presenting himself at the table (fur I can t see why the resteictiou should only be removed in the case of Jews), and having been (ally elected, declaring that he was willing to take the prescribed oaths, but than the words on the true f dth of a Chris tian' were not binding on his conscience, each house should be empowered to omit those words, and to allow the eub- stantive oath to b 3 taken iu the form which might be most binding. I do not pledge myself to that view, but there is intiea to bd said in it4slavoilr, and that by adopting it it . . is possible to a great extent to get rid of tlio very pa:nful subject of difference between this and the other house. In voting against the latter portion (of the amendment) I de- sire totZelve to myself, and th:;se with whom I act, the opportunity of eonsideritz upon some future occasion whether any compromise, framed according to such. pi in ciple as I have mentioned, may not be adopted to termi nate the inconveniences arifiitig from, I fear, the permanent difference cf op.n;ou betwetu your lurdsLips and the other house."— _ _ Your lordsbipi . mu , t see that the bill which I framed was founded on the statement of my noble friend. Ido bliy h bound un e d v,, to not dry that my ncbtes friend w•a . a • uPPort the Lill as I have framed it, sboulutt reason to believe, from the manner in which he tx pressed himself and from Lid stating that much was to be said in favour of a b'd so drawn out, that it woulit hare the entire concurrence of my nolds friend.
