The Members of these clubs aimed at producing a social as well as a _ political revolution. They declared that they wero determined to exterminate the Irish landlord:, to destroy the Protes tant landlords, who possessed - nine-tenths of the country, they called these the' English g arrison, and declared that they must be extirpated, and the clubs declared ' that they were prepared to Carry out this object by means of pikes and blunderbusses. They had not only instructed the men to arm themielves; but they had in structed the women to throw hoops, encircled with burn ing tow; from the windows on the heads of the soldiers. One of their leaders had passed in review these clubs in the south of Ireland, consisting of several thousand men 1 • The clubs had Sought for assistance in America .and France, and those who 'had deluged Paris with blood in the month of June last were in connection with the Irish Clubbists. The nobility and gentry of Ireland had represented those things to the Rome Secretary, and it was in consequence of the Very unsatisfactory nature of his answer' that he had been induced to bring forward ' this motion. It was true that they had brought some of these persons to trial, and had. obtained a conviction. ' They' had others now awaiting their trial on the lith of ' August. It was the intention of theie.clubbists to produce a n outbreak to prevent the trial of the prisoners. They • ' Would not, perhaps, succeed; but wool I thejaries do their duty ? could they do their duty ? b , ev , eralof the j urors who had convicted the late Mr..O,Unuell had been of and the names the jurors wh o ruined in consequence , had convicted Mitchel had been circulated throughout the country, and they were marked men. (LEFT SPEAKING.) The Censtitutioithel states that the Government was disposed to treat with the shareholders of the Lyons Railroad Company on the following terms :-7f. 60c. rente are to be allowed the shareholders in exchange of the 2501. paid in by them for every share. • The sum of 1,400,000 f., paid in addition to those 2501. per share, are to be reimbursed in specie. "Nevertheless," aids the Con aitutionnel, "it would be indispensable, previous to the conclusion of the affair, that the Government should take into consideration the decision adopted to-day by the Committee of Public Works. A sum of 25,000,000 is necessary to complete the works to be executed this year on the Lyons Railroad. The com mittee accordingly resolved to divide the shareholders into two categories. Ist. Those who should not pay up their, instalments would receive a rente of 7f. 50c. for the 250 f. they have already advanced. 2d. Those who undertook to pay the 5001. the amount of each share, according as they should be called for, are to receive a rente of 251. The Committee intended' by that measure to encourage the shareholders to afford the State the re sources it stood in need of, by securing to them for that loan of 250 francs an interest of upwards of seven per cent. Thus would vanish, at the same time, the reproach addressed to the Government of taking advan tage of the difficult situation of the. Company, since it would ensure an interest of five per cent. to the share holders who should . fulfil their eagagements:' The Chamber of Commerce of Paris has published the following notice : " The Director of Customs has adopted provisional measures to ensure to the exporters of stuffs manu factured of mixed materials, the advantage con ferred by the decree of the Provisional Govern ments, dated June 10. The declarations of mer chants 'claiming a drawback on g oods exported will be receiv e d b y the officers of customs with a reser vation as to the value at which they are to be estimated in order to calculate the drawback at 4i per cent. These delarations are to contain all the details neces sary for the estimation of the value of each of the articles composing the stuff, and they should have an nexed certificate, duly legalised, substantiating the place where they have be en manufactured. It wou ld be well that a double pattern be exhibited, as it is pro p os ed to require such double. pattern by a general o rdonnance about to pc ? published, r egu l at i ng the mode of claiming the draivbaek; on Mixed s ilk s and woollen stuffs, and facilitating its payment."

No doubt the Member .for Westbury would say that the 9 and 10 , Victoria did not confer upon th e get up and colonial legislature any power •to prohi bitory duties. Now he (Lord' G. Be n r ancl ove that the Acts had been passed in a very oppositet ) thought In that spirit., four of the colonies had acted for the spirit. Queen in Council, and th e L e g islat ure had confirmed what they had done, though.rivw it was se t up that the authors of the Bill never pretended that it gave any suc h power. In 1846 the Memberfoe the University of Cam bridge (Mr. Goulburn) stated coat the Act intended to leave the colonies entirely at libe,rl to frame their own laWs with regard to the trade o.f these colonies. The Noble .Lord cited the speech of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, .to show that the Government introduced the Bill. in the spirit he had stated.—(Hear, hear.) liow, he would ask, could it be pre tended to be the in= tendon of the Act to prevent the B: itish colonies from repealing prohibitions sad restrictions, and yet that was the only ground on which i,t could be said the Act of 18.4.5 overrode the Act of the Colonial Legislature.

Suomt.—To-day the inactivity in the market for every description of duty paid Sugar was further in creased, arising from the announcement of Government, that they intend to allow Sugar to be refined in bond, either for home consumption or exportation. The business, in consequence, by private treaty, was extremely limited for all purposes, and is not worth enumerating; there was also no public sale. It is diffi cult to quote prices with aocuracy; most sorts of colonial will not fetch within Is 6d per cwt of last Friday's rates. The measure has been productive of a beneficial effect upon the market for Foreign an S d ug t a h r e innebaroensdt. rates n are home -trade e a s e ale r s efi o n f e West e m st a l r n k d e i t a , are barely 648 hhds and trs. o lIEFINED.—T day there was muc h h eaviness in the 531 for brown, and 54s per cwt for st andard lumps. Bonded Crushed Sugar is more in demand, at 26s to 27s per cwt. MAURITIUS. —Although importers are willing to make a further concession in the value of 6d to is per cwt, yet on the part of grocers and refiners little desire has been manifested te operate. The business concluded in all sorts has been much less than in the former week, and which is a matter of surprise, when the low rates that prevail are taken into consideration. Only 1,659 bags and 165 casks were submitted to public sale, still a part only found purchasers. FoaxioN.—To-day there was much enquiry after Foreign Sugar in bond, and stiffer rates were paid. The private sales for the week are 1,800 chests of yellow Havannah at 19s; 150 cheAs of fine brown Bahia 18s, and 2,000 bags of ordinary brown Pernambuco u s, No chests of white Bahia 41s per cwt. For duty-paid par- • cels there is very little inquiry. EAST INDIA.—Of Altioras an increased quantity has been brought to market, whereas buyers showing little desire to do business, prices went down 6d per cwt for all sorts. At public sale 4,161 bags were disposed of. By private treaty only small parcels have been taken at about similar rates.

Of Fish Oils arrivals are upon an extended scale, and as buyers are not distioied to enlarge their purchases, the downward progress of prices continues. ASSOCIATION IN SUPPORT OF MONARCHICAL PRINCIPLES.-"The exertions of the association formed. at Berlin -for . the support of monarchical institutions against anarchy and - republieanisni, led to va rious meetings and demonstrations in the provinces, at Magdebourg, on the 14th instant. Several hun dred persons; consisting .of noblemen, landowners, and literary men from Saxony, Pomerania, Silesia, as well as' from - Berlin, tint to explain their views. Among the principal speakers were Counts Pfeil and Oriula, Messrs. Witt, D'Arnin), and Orrin, and Professor ilupfeld. The revolution of March last Was spoken of in terms of great blame, and an Eichorn Ministry as desirable. These demonstrations May be called "reactionary ;" but it c Innot be denied they have been in a greet measure ocensibt t ed by the unscrupUlous audacity of the Radical party. WEST INDIA PINE-APPLES AND; TURTLES.—The Trinity Yacht, Captain flounstll, has arrived in 27 days froM the West Indies, .consigned to Messrs. Keel: ing and Hunt, bringing an entire cargo, consisting of the enormous quantity of 45,000 pineaples, a portion of the same being brotigliC on the deck of the vessel grow ing in the soil in' which: they were originally planted, and the •turtles are in troughs in the same gulf water as when taken aliVe. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE. OF COMMONS, July 20. INCUMBERED ESTATES (IRELAND) BILL. On the motion being put for bringing up the report on this Bill, Mr. NAPIER rose to move the insertion of the amendments of which he had given notice. The Hon. Gentleman was interrupted by the appear ance at the bar of Mr. BERNAL, who stated that the House of Lords had agreed to have a conference with respect to the amendments made by their Lordships in the Destitute Poor (Ireland) Bill, and had appointed that the same hould take plae immediately in the Conference chamber. . evertil members were then appointed to attend the conference. On their return, Sir G. GREY intimated that the conference on the part of the Douse had delivered to their Lordships their reasons for disagreeing with the amendments, which had been made by their Lordships in the Bill. Mr. NAPIER continued, and proceeded to contend that the effect of the clause which he proposed to omit would be to enable a person who had a judgment of 201. upon a landowner, to sell the property out and out, with out giving notice to any other person who had a claim upon it. Without the protecting care of the Court of Chancery such must he the effect, and the fact was that any man who had a good claim would have recourse to the first set of clauses, and go through the Court of Chancery in the regular manner, while the man who had a bad claim would have recourse to the second set of clauses, which would free him of t he Court of Chancer y . The Hon. and Learned Gentleman, after commenting upon these clauses in detail, proceeded to say, that under them a tenant for life, who had a judgment hanging over the smallest portion of an estate, might sell the whole, to the prejudice of the rights of those who had future claims upon it. He did not.require any power from the Court to enable him to do so, and might thus, by collu sion with others, deprive all future claimants of their rights and interest in the property. He thought this was a most daogerous kind of legislation for property of any description, but it was peculiarly reprehensible in the case of land, a description of property, as it was the most valuable, required to be surrounded with the best securities. He did not accuse the parties who intention introduced these clauses of any to injure the rights or interests of future claim ants upon estates, they were of too high and honour able a character to have done so intentionally; but look ing at the whole sco p e an d bearing of the codicil they had added to the Bill as it came from the Lords, he con sidered that it was most dangerous. It could not, if carried, be otherwise than injuri ous to landed property in Ireland, and looking at the care and legal learning which had been bestowed on the first part of the Bill in the other House of Parliament, it could scarcely be ex pected that their Lordships would agree to such addi tions as those contained in the second set of clauses. H e would ask whether, under these circumstances, it was wise to provoke a collision on such a question ? He considered the provisions of many of these clauses to , contain a general attack upon property in Ireland. It was, in his opinion, most unwise to let loose such powers. There was no object to be gained by it com mensurate with, or compensating for, the risk—there was no saving of ex p ense — t h ere was no protect i on against fraud or co ll us i on , aga i nst cont i ngent r i g h ts . For these reasons he protested against that part of the Bill. He admitted that it was desirable to intro duce changes in the management of land in Ire land ; but they must go slowy to work. If they did so, and agreed to co-operate together, they would be enabled gradually to lay the foundation of a better system of things. It was not good policy to encou ' rage unreasonable expectations of immediate benefits to be derived from specific legislative measures. Such expectations were, in almost all cases, certain to be dis appointed and they ought therefore to have the courage to do what was right, uninfluenced by popular clamour. The Hon. and Learned Member concluded by moving that the Bill be recommitted. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL, in defending the Bill, re-stated its objects, and the intent of the provisions ob jected to by the Hon. and Learned Member. The state of Ireland was such a very peculiar one with reference to landed property, that it would justify measures which might startle those who were accustomed to the or dinary proceedings in our own courts of law and jus tice. But he had not acted on that principle in training these clauses. There was nothing in them, or in this Bill, which was not based upon analagous processes in the courts of this country. One thing they proposed to deal witla was conveyances. In Ireland the cost of convey criers was so greet, as virtually to prey( lit all sides of smal t state:. What was the effect? Why, that the number of lam ed proprietors in all Ire• land was only 8,000, while half a century ago it was estimated that there were 200,000 owners of land in this country.—(Hear, hear.) Then with respect to sales under the :second set of clauses, the provision clauses merely amounted to t: is, that sales were to take place with the consent of all parties interested, without the previous concurrence of the Court, and the moneys obtained from the sale should be paid into the- country fur the benefit of all claimants upon the estate. As to the objection that a tenant for lite could sill an estate, and thus deprive others of their rights who had con tingent claims, there were provisions w hich precluded him from doing so, and, besides, when the estates were sold, all the rights and interests in them were transferred to. the money in the Court which became its representative. Besides, a surveyor was to be appointed by the Lord 7 Lieutenant—a Government officer, in fact, whose duty it would be to certify that the price efferi d was a fair one to pay for the land; and taking the whole of the provisions against fraud, he felt satisfied that under these clauses they would he of the fewest end rarest de scription. According to the wish of the lion. and Learned Gentleman the Member for the University of Dublin (Mr. 'Napier), the c xpenses which he would wish to tall on the lands would fall on those whom he desired to pro tect, and thus a very serious injury would be inflicted un those incapable of bearing such, and whom, according to his amendment, he seemed ds s'r. us to pot( et. Ile con sidered that no good could be done to Ireland unless there was an opportunity given to sell the lard, for thus, and thus only would a middle class be establisited, and aid thus will the land be emancipated, which is essen tially necessary to the wellbeing of that country. For instance, he would say, that if land could be sold by divisions of one hutidri d acres or more, that the in terest of the country, and the condition of the people would be greatly advanced. He hoped that the mea sure would be agreed to, because be felt assured that it would prove advantageous to the interest of Ireland. He would wish that this measure should be extended, in a great measure, to this country ; though he should at the same time say, that such a measure was not so much required for England, considering her Cir cumstances: He hoped that the measure would be agreed to, because he sincerely believed that it would work well for the benefit of Ireland. Mr. SADLIER said that he should support the amend ment of the lion. and Learned Gentleman the Member ' tor the University of Dublin (Mr. Napier), for he con sidered that this amendment would change the character of the measure very advantageously, both to the pro prietor and to the purchaser of land in Ireland. He thought it very wrong to confer upon every description of incumbrancer, as well as upon the owner, the dan gerous power of proceeding to the sale of the pro perty by private contract, under circumstances to which 'he had already adverted, and without any check or control on the part of the Court. Under the operation of this Act, the negative search for judg ments would proceed as heretofore; but in this respect, as well as in the obtainment cf an account of costs in a plenary suit, and in others, he 'conceived that the cost of the working of the pthcess would more than counter• balance any incidental advantage. There. were 3,000,000 of people in. Ireland occupying holdings under eight acres, and there were 663,205 farms in the country under fifteen acres. Something - ought surely to be done with reference to this matter.- The Noble Lord' at the head of the Government was constantly vibrating be tween the abolition and the maintenance of thosq small holdings. But he appeared never to have made lup his mind as to what was the best course to bo pursued. He believed that though great exertions were being made to sell land in Ireland, under the most favourable cir-. cumstances, that purcl;asers Could not be found for small lots. The Bill ',reposed to repeal the statute of limita tions, and in this respect he believed it would inflict great injury upon infants and others claiming under an obscure or loosely made will: Mr. NEWDEG ATE said, that however the Bill might work in Ireland, he - should be sorry to see it ex tended to England; and Hon. Gentlemen would utterly sacrifice their regard for the rights of property, if they sanctioned such .a proposition. • The fact of the case was, that if they commenced upon that principle .they would not well know where to stop. He was willing to assist in meeting the case of Ireland, by facilitating the enactment of any measure sanctioned by. the experience of the House of Lords ; but as he thought the Lords would not sanction the present' one, he felt it his bounden duty to vote with die non. -Member for Dublin. , • • Mr.-FAGAN said he felt eneouraged'to address the House by what had fallen from 'the last speaker, not withstanding the many legal teahnicalities which sur rounded the question. He approved much of the mea sure; and hoped his Hen. .and Learned Friend, the Solicitor-General, would persevere .with it until it be the .law. of the land. .-The-:land -was- the: great source from which peace; plenty; and employment were to be expected; - but how could it yield them unless it were emancipated from the hardens which oppressed it? The question was, which of the two portions of the Bill were best adapted to produce this useful state of things? He wonld-venttireto say, that' the first portion of the Bill, which cone down from the House of Lords was so.iacumbered as to be totally inoperative. It would be better and more respectful to the people of Ireland-to introduce no measure at all. Let them protect owners and remainder-men as much as possible, but never loie sight of the-great object they professed to have in view. Colonel DUNNE, was of opinion that property in Ireland ought to be treated in the same manner and on the same principles as property in England. Ile thought that any measure that went to a confiscation of property was,bad. He cansidered that that part of the scheme which proposed the sale of land in Ireland, in small portions, was objectioaable, end that no greater evil could he inflicted on the holders of property than a comeulsory measure of this kind.—(hear.) The Ileeion abl e mem ber for Carlow had gone t..o_ full)• arid clearly into the whole ailbject; and had so exposed its injustice, and re futed the argumi'nts ativeiced in favour of it by the Attorney-General, end other Honourable Gentlemen, that it was unnecessary for him to enter into the details of the Bill. ITC thought that the -introduction of the measure into Ireland would prove a fertile source of litigation in that country. He-Could. net but advert to one assertion that had been made in connexion with this. subject—namely, that Ahe disturbances about land in Ireland was one of-the main causes of the disquiet in. that country; bat he, was enabled, from knowledge, to say that that was not the case,- and that the main cause of disturbances in Ireland was attributable to bad go vernment.-(Hear,. hear.) Mr. W. P. WOOD referred to the grounds upon which the measure appeared to :have - bun introduced. Tho object of it, as it struck his rind, Was to give effi cient legal rights and remedics,to those who h a d p ositive legal rights. It had been detailed. -to the House that there were many estates in heland; the 'rental of which yielded eight or ten thousand 'pounds a year, but upon the improvement of which even 2001, a year were seldom laid out.--(Hear, hear.) Now that was one of the grievances connected with incumbered estates in'lreland. Another grievance connected with the incumbered estate was the difficulties which were thrown in the way of the sale of them by the operation of the Court of Chancery —which required that a man must sell off the whole of kis estate in order to get rid of the incumbrances, in stead of allowing him to sell as much of. it as he might think' necessary. .The object of the present Bill was mainly to obviate the inconvenieuce. With respect to the allegations about fraud, he thought that the present measure was well adapted teeguard against that. He con sidered that the assertion that the measure would lead to a state of things such as that in France as connected with Communism, was unfounded. The grand object of the Bill is to prevent the property from being wasted in Chancery, and have the power of se lli ng it in a more expeditious manner. The Bill will give a summary mode of . proceeding. The incutnbraneers in Ireland hid not the interests of the owners of land, and con oidering the state of Ireland 'this seemed to him to be the-most remedial measure for-the-country yet pro posed. Mr. HENLEY said there was no difference of opinion as to the propriety of doing something to facilitate the object contemplated in this Bill, but the question was whether this Bill would be effectual for that purpose, and whether it would not do more harm than good. kin very much doubted whether it would facilitate the sale of estates, but thought they were chalking out a loneer course. He thought that it would have been better to have left this difficult and complicated matter to the Lord Chancellor of Ireland, who would have made rules and orders much more effectual than the machi nery of this Bill, for effecting the Objects contemplated. He should support the motion of the Hon. and Learned Gentleman the Member for the University of Dublin. Mr. BLACKALL said he also agreed with the views of the Hon. and Learned Gentleman the Member for Dublin. What they wanted in Ireland was a facility to sell property, and the power of transfer inure easy. There were two points which at this time grievously afflicted Ireland; one, the small proprietors, who were the worst landlords in that country; and the other the middlemen, who were, if possible, worse; and yet these were the two classes they proposed to perpetuate. On that account, and although approving of many clauses in the Bill, he should certainly support the motion of the Hon. and Learned Member for the University of Dublin, that the Bill be recommitted.. • Mr. VILLIERS supported the , Bill. All admitted that it was absolutely necessary to give facilities in Ire land for the sale of property ; and yet, although the Bill proposed to do so, the Hon. Member for Warwick shire opposed it on the ground that it would commit an injustice, inasmuch as it disregarded the interests of those who were remainder men, or held reversionary interests. Mr. NEWDEGATE observed that what he said was, that it did not protect in a sufficient degree the rights of property. Mr. VILLIERS resumed. The Bill provides suffi ciently for all classes ; and for his own part he believed that every manufacturing district, and almost every town 'in England, were deeply interested in the passing of the Bill, inasmuch as they were heavily taxed to support the poor Irish in this country. He was of opinion the measure before the House was one of the best ever in troduced for the benefit of Ireland.—(Cheers.) The great evil there was that land was entirely neglected, and that the proprietors of property had no money to cul tivate or improve it. Such being the case, and knowing as they (lid that the land was sufficient to support more than double its population, if It were properly cultivated, he could see no reason why such a measure should be opposed by the evidence of Captain Kennedy, the agent of Lord Devon. This was fully proved, add when they talk of emigration, and sending away the people, they ought rather to enrich themselves byleeping them at homes' and giving them 'plenty of employment. There was enough of capital for the purpose, even in Ireland, for it was notorious that, even during the famine, money in abundance from that country had been sent over, and invested in this. From all these facts he was surprised how any Hon. Gentleman could for a moment hesitate in supporting the THE StN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, JULY 2l, into Mr. J. STEWART believed the great evil of Ireland was the want of a sufficient tenure of land, but, in his opinion, there never was a Bill framed more calculated to continue, and even add to thatevii, as the present measure. It was well known that holders of land there did nut de rive from the owners in fee, generally speaking, but had leases from third parties, which was, almost on all eeeas sioas, studiously concealed. He should support the Bill, it it gave a purchaser the power of treating with the tenant' y, as deriving for himself, and if they sold other-. wise, they had leases, sub-leases, and a variety of exist ing relations between occupiers and owners of land, which would throw the whole country into a state of the utmost contusion and litigation in a degree beyond all calcula tion. Suppose there was an incumbrance of an estate created by himself. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL.—Then he can't sell. Mr. STEWART—If that were the interpretation given by the Hon. and Learned Gentleman. the Hon. and Learned Gentleman the Member for the University of Dublin, who held so distinguished a position at the Irish bur, held a different opinion. The purpose of the Act, if it had any object at all, was to enable persons, who at least thought they had an interest in th. it estates, to sell that interest. But the present Bill crtati.d new litigation; for the Ist and 10th clauses, which threw the proceedings into the Court of Chancery, would create years and years of litigation, and ulti mately swallow up the entire land of Ireland in law proceedings. There was no man in England better able to form an opinion on such a subject than,the present Lord Chancellor of England; but if all the,proceedings were to be thrown into the Court of ChanCs'ry, he, (or one, would not believe the Noble Lord had any hand in drawing it up. There was not a man; not even an Irish man—(Laughter, and "Order")—who would purchase an estate which was open to litigation as it would be under this Bill. Mr. MAUNSELL said that the Hon. and Learned Gentleman who last addressed . the House, said he did not object to the Bill as it came down from the House of Lords, but his objections to it arose from the alteration made in it by the Ilon. and Learned Gentleman the Solicitor- General. Yet the arguments used by the lion. and Learned Gentleman were against the '2l3tb,-Clause 9f the Bill, which was inserted in the Bill in theilouse of Lords: In his opinion, the Bill, as now franied, would greatly fatfilitate the sale of incumbered estates in Ire land. It was alact,. that the pressure upon the tenants . in Ireland, arose from the pecuniary difficulties of the landlords of that country; and, it was the duty of the HouSe to afford every mesas'. by which this , systetis should be altered. •‘k would tend to the good of the tenants' as well as to the landlords themselves: He re gretted to hear that the Chancellor of the Exchequer had expressed his determination to oppose the proposi-' tion of the Hon. and Learned Member for Kilmarnock, in relation to the abolition of the duties on the sale of small proprieties. He trusted the Hon.- and Learned , . Member would persevere in his motion on this subject. The House then divided, when there appeared— ' For the atne,ndment ' 52 ... Against it ‘ ' - .Majority - ' • ' —145 . Sir G. HAMILTON , moved. the insertiOn of a - clause : . - " Whereas doubts are entertained whether, whena judg ment .... affects lands in Ireland, and when the person en titled`r to such judgment is willing to release's petition of such lands in order to - the sale thereof or otherwise, ho ~ can grant such release without nullifying the-effect or ee validity of such judgment upon the residue thereof, or any otberproperty which it is intended should remain subject to such judgment, and whereas it is expedient ~. that such doubts be removed, be it enacted, that the re- • lease of 'any portion of lands in Ireland from any judg ment affecting the same, shall not operate or be con strued to extend or operate, so as to nullify, or in any , • • manner to affect the validity and force of such judgment ' - .as regards the residue of such lands, or any other pro- ' 1 perty not Specially released from such judgment ; but that such judgment shall continue to affect such residue .. -.- or other property, notwithstanding such release, in like . ell l- , ... manner, and with the like powers to en f orce p a y men t of .... interest and principal, and to all intents and purposes se if such deed of release had not been executed.' .

It might be unfortunate that he had to move the second reading of this Bill on the 20th of July, but if such a course of opposition were persevered in, he would have to move the second reading at,a much later period.—(Hear, hear.) , Mr. HUDSON said fie bad 'objected to the f or mer • Bill on this subject, and he alsOohjeetedeeethe present. Not that lie was opposed to inquiry, but because the in ,• quiry proposed was partial in its operation. If they were anxious for inquiry, let eiteh Member produce a re' turn of the money 'spent at his election —(Laughter) whether by himself, his committee, or his agents, and . then after examining these, they could easily jud g e what boroughs or counties were liable to be placed upon the schedule attached to the Bill, an d w h at were-not. He .. was himself quite prepared to give in such a return.-- - (Hear, hear.) Let the Noble Lord at the head of the Government do the same, and let other Hon. Members follow that example, and then there would ke no dif' ficulty whatever in finding out the guilty places. Should . they adopt that course they would have his support, but he would not give his countenance to a partial inquiry. such as that demanded.—(Hear, hear). .. Mr. W. MILES supported the second reading of the Bill. He believed such a Bill exceedingly necessary , He did not agree with the former measures on the sub ject, but he was ready to give the Noble Lord his stir port on the principle of the present measure. H e did not wonder that the Hon. and Gallant Member for Line coin (Colonel Sibthorp) should not like the Bill; as the • borough he represented was included in the schedule, es it was one of the defaulters. There was, to be sure, 0° • gross corruption practised in it, but there was a systen: of " free and easier " kept up, which looked somewhs suspicious.—(Laughter.) But what they had to look to was prevention for the future; and thinking that th e present Bill would have that effect, he would vote f or the second reading. - Mr: NE WDEGATE rose amid loud cries ofd Divide and withdraw." .He was understood to request 1. 11.

Mr. ANSTEY said, his reason for the postponere en ! was, that when he rose to address the House lie was rne l : by a species of noise from the Treasury Beech wh ich he should not attempt to characterise.—(Laughte r : ) Were he now allowed to proceed, he should state 111 .: views on the principle of the measure as briefly as P ° ' sible._(Cries of “Go on, go on.") The present me a sure was said to be founded on the report of certai n Committees. These Committees, it was said, had no t fully examined into the corrupt practices which it Vlas a ll eg ed had prevailed in the places referred. to in t h e schedule attached to the Bill. But why did-.130t the Noble Lord instruct his Attorney or Solicitor General to institute an inquiry into those facts when they we re b made aware of them?
