Lord BROUGHAM presented a petition against the dog-cart nuisance in the provinces. The Earl of SHAFTESBURY preseated petitions from Sheffield, Exeter, and other places, for closing public houses on Sunday ; also, a petition from the Lord Provost, magistrates, and council of Edinburgh, against public executions. EPISCOPAL AND CAPITULAR ESTATES MA- NAGEMENT (1854) BILL. On the motion for going into committee upon this The Earl of DERBY said it was worth the consider& tion of the' Government to inquire before proceeding with this measure how it the existing coin mission had fulfilled its original intentions. He was given to under stand that the transference of the management of these estates into the hands of the commission had placed lessees in a less advantageous position than they for merly were with regard to the renewal of leases. Earl GRANVILLE observed that it was an inconve nieut course to discuss that question before going into committee. The Bishop of OXFORD pointed out the necessity of referring the bill to a select committee, and concluded by making a motion for that purpose. After a short conversation the amendment cf the right rev. prelate was agreed to, and the bill was re- ferred to a select committee. [LEFT SITTING.] HOUSE OF COMMONS —(THIS EVENING.) The SPEAKER took the chair at four o'clock. The following bills were considered, and ordered to be read a third time :—Bagenalstown and Wexford (No. 2), Bideford Roads, Cornwall Railway, Dudley, Halesoven, and Bromsgrove Roads, Edinburgh Roads, Londonderry and Enniskillen Railway, Newport and Pillgwenlly Water works, Newport Dock, Stockport Rectory Division, Lon don. Tilbury, and Southend Railway, and West Brom wich Improvement Bills. YORK, NEWCASTLE, AND BERWICK RAILWAY (CONSTRUCTION OF DOCKS, &c.) BILL. Mr. COWPER move d the omission of clause 10 in this bill, with the view of ins , mting another clause, for the pur pose of protecting the navigation of th e r i ver T yne. Mr. STE PHENSON, Mr. J. H. LIDDEL, and Mr. Bou- VERIE, opposed the amendment. Sir J. GRAHAM said, believing that the sense of the house was against the amendment, he should withdraw it. The bill was then read a third time and expressed. MIDDLESEX INDUSTRIAL SCHOOLS BILL. On the motion for considering the above bill, Mr. MULLINGS moved the omission of certain words in the bill respecting the regulation of religious worship in those schools. Mr. J. BALL opposed the amendment. This bill, though brought in as a private one, was in reality a most important measure as regarded the public, and was the first attempt to get hold of the Roman Catholic children in those institutions under the plea of instructing them, but in reality for purposes of proselytism. Sir G. GREY said as a member of the committee upon whom devolved the consideration of this question, he felt bound to support the retaining of the words in the bill, the omission of which had been moved by the hon mem ber (Mr. Mulling). Sir J. PAKINGTON said he also had been a member of the committee to whom the bill had been referred, and he could not help expressing his hope that his hon. friend (Mr. Mullings) would not press his amendment. (Hear.) Mr. NEWDEGATE supported the amendment of his hon. friend (Mr. Mullings) He thought the words ob jected to were wholly unjustifiable, as they would go to allow the celebration of the mass in those institutions, which was a thing unknown since the Reformation. Mr. DRUMMOND thought his hou. friend (Mr. New degate) was frightened at the word " mass," for he thought any other form of word :would not have challenged the opposition of the hon. member, for in reality, there was nothing frightful in school-rooms being used as places of instruction for children. (Hear, hear.) Mr. SPOONER said the hon. member (Mr. Drummond) had made very light of a very serious matter; but he (Mr. Spooner) thought that any minister who should advise the Queen to sanction such a bill ought to be impeached. (Cries of " Divide.") Mr. ADDERLEY supported the amendment, not on the ground of the hou. member who proposed it, but because he believed it would be found wholly impracticable. (Hear.) Lord D. STUART said, as a member of the committee he had opposed this bill, which he considered ought to have been introduced as a general public bill and not as a pri vate bill. He believed, however, that the clause objected to by the hon. member (Mr. Mullings) was founded on the principles of religious liberty--principles which he (Lord D. Stuart) wished to see extended to all sects and all classes. (Hear.) Mr. HENLEY said he could not support the amend ment. There were a large number of Roman Catholic children in those schools, and he thought they ought to have religious worship according to the forms of their own church. He should therefore vote against the amendment. The house then divided, when the numbers appeared— For the clause l9O For the amendment lOB Majority for the clause B2 So the amendment was lost and the clause agreed to. BUILDING ACTS. Sir J. SHELLEY asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department when he intends to bring in a bill to amend the Metropolitan Buildings Act. Lord PALMERSTON said the bill would be for the amendment of Buldiug Acts generally, and he could not say when it would be brought in, as its preparation would take some time. SARDINIA AND ROME Mr. WOODD wished to ask Lord J. Russell whether it is true, as reported, that the Government of this country has interposed in relation to the differences between the the Government of Sardinia and that of Rome ; and, if so, whether there will be any objection to lay such papers as have reference to the subject on the table of the house. Lord J. RUSSELL said no such interposition had taken place, and there were consequently no papers to produce. PUBLIC PROSECUTIONS IN IRELAND. Mr. BOWYER asked the Chief Secrectary for Ireland, whether her Majesty's Government intend to propose a measure enabling Courts of Quarter Sessions in Ireland to give remuneration to the sessional Crown solicitors for the proßecution of larcenies. Sir J. YOUNG replied that the subject was under con sideration, but he could hold out no prospect of legislating upon it this session. THE PRESTON STRIKE. Mr. PALMER wished to ask the hon. member for Fins bury, whether he intended to persevere to-night with the following motion :—Select committee to inquire into the complaints of the working and industrious classes, and other inhabitant s c f th e b oroug h of Preston, as set forth in their petition presented to this house on the 30th day of March last, and to report their opinion to the house. Mr. T. BUNCOMBE said he had this morning received a letter from Preston, which relieved him from all re sponsibility on the subject. The letter (which the hon. member read) expressed a hope that as the struggle had now ceased, they hoped he (Mr. Buncombe) would withdraw his motion, and this he said be should now do. (Hear.) CHURCH RATES. Sir W. CLAY rose to move for leave to bring in a bill for the total abolition of church rates, and was LEFT SPEAKING. THE LONDON GAZETTE. (THIS EVENING.)
