ROUSE OF LORDS--(THIS EVENING.) The Royal Assent was given by Commission to the following bills :—The Consolidated Fund (4,000,0001.) ; the Burghs (Scotland) ; the Sheriff and Commissary Courts (Berwickshire) ; the County Election Polls (Scotland) ; the Sale of Bullion ; the Aggravated. As saults ; the Cardiff Waterworks ; the Sheffield Water works ; the Liverpool Borough Court ; the Cambridge University and Town Waterworks ; the Stockport Im provement ; the Brighton, Hooe, and Preston Water works ; the Edinburgh High-street and Railway Sta tion ' - the Scottish Central Railway; the Midland Rail way Act Amendment ; the Blackburn and Layton, with Warbrick Improvement ; the Wolverhampton Markets and Fairs, &o. . The. Lords Commissioners were—the Lord Chancellor, the Duke of Argyll, and Lord Stanley of Alderley. The LoRD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at five o'clock. The Earl of RODEN presented a number of petitions from the counties of Tyrone and Monaghan praying for the inspection of nunneries. Lord CAMPBELL presented a petition from Monaghan against the extension of the income tax to Ireland. The noble and learned lord said he dissented entirely from the prayer cf the petition. The Earl of ABERDEEN presented a petition from Plymouth in favour of marriage with a deceased wife's sister. MR. KEOGH AND THE LATE GOVERNMENT. The Earl of EGLINTON said, in allusion to a state ment made the other night in this house by the noble duke at the head of the Colonial-office, that he was authorised by Lord Naas to state that he distinctly and unequivocally denied ever having offered or having been authorised to offer office to Mr. Keogh or any of his political associates. GREAT EXTRA-MURAL CEMETERY ASSOCIA did not think there was sufficient ground for witholding the writ. Sir F. THESIGER supported the original motion. Mr. AGLIONBY said the house had issued a writ in the Plymouth case, which was parallel to this, and he could see no reason for withholding the writ in the present instance. Mr. T. DUNCOMBE gave it as his opinion that Harwich was ripe for disfranchisement, and, therefore, he recommended the house to pursue an half measure but disfranchise the borough. at once, as it must come to that at last. • Mr. MASSEY said it would be unconstitutional to issue the writ without previously inquiring into the co.r rapt bargain upon which it was alleged the late member was retained for Harwich. Sir R. H. INGLIS argued that the house had no right to withhold the writ, because the committee which had already sat upon the subject, had reported that no thing had come out in evidence to justify the suspension of the writ. • Lord J. RUSSELL could not agree with his honour able friend that the house had no right to suspend the writ, because the house had exercised such a right since the period of the revolution.. However, the question which the house had now to decide was this—ought they to make Harwich an exception to the other cases which the house had disposed of this session. The chairman of the committee which had sat upon the petition was of opinion that' nothing had been proved to justify their withholding the writ, but how was that ? (Hear, hear.) Why, the witnesses who could have proved extensive bribery, absconded, and the inquiry was therefore stifled. That was a strong reason why there should be a further investigation, and he was ready to vote either for that inquiry, or for a bill to disfranchise the borough, which he thought ought to be done for the sake of the character of the house. (Cheers.) In the meantime, however, the writ ought to issue. Mr. WADDINGTON supported the issue of the writ. [LEFT SITTING.] THE LONDON GAZETTE. (THIS EVENING.) BUCKINGHAM PALACE, JUNE 13.

Sir Edward Cust, K.C.H., Master of the Ceremonies. TION BILL. On the motion that this bill be read a second time, The Earl of HARROWBY moved that the bill be read a second time this day six months, on the ground that it was in direct contravention to the general policy asserted by the Intra-Mural Interment Act of last session. The Bishop of LONDON supported the amendment. Lord BEAUMONT thought that if their lordships threw out the bill at this stage they would be defeating the whole 'object of their former extra-mural interment legislation. (LEFT SITTING.)

Up to this time such a poi dim would be free from duty; whereas this •ex post.fac,o law would cast on the party the burden of the succession tax. (Hear.) The right hon. gentleman the Chancellor of the • Exchequer in introducing this measure estimated the pre= duce of the tax at about 2,000,0001:, stating at the same time that the burden chargeable on land would be some thing like 400,0001. He (Mr. Mullings) estimated the duty on settled personalty at ],503,0001., and the total produce of the tax at 3,175,000/. ; this, it should be remembered, in addition to the duty of 1,300,0001. now derived from the income tax. (Hear, hear.) He could imagine no possible case in which land would pay a lee e; rate of duty than personalty. He believed that 21 y; , and not 30 years, as calculated by the right. hon. ger.. eman, was the ordi nary duration of life. (Hear, hear.) He had tented the Matter. Havin g gone through the copyhold descents in the manors with which he had been concerned, he found that they did not exceed 20 years. Let them look, again at the sucoession in the Royal family from 1649 to 1837, adding twelve years for the deposition of Charles; and they got two hundred years. How many sovereigns had there been during that period ? Ten. And ten times twenty was two hundred.. (Hear.) Let the house con sider how it was proposed to get at settled pe •sonalty. No machinely short of that of the Inquisition would accom 'plish the object ; nothing else would prevent families from handing down property among each other,' so as to evade the succession tax. He believed that in futuro there would be no trustees or executors. (Hear, hear, from the Oppo sition.) Who would place himself in such a position? By the 47th clause the commissioners were empowered to ,require any accountable party to produce before them or their officers " all such books and documents in their cus tody or control as may be capable of affordiag any neces sary information for that purpose, and they make extracts therefrom and copies thereof, as they shall think necessary for the purposes of this act." Talk about the Inquisition ! It was nothing to the establishment of a system which might involve many persons in the loss of their estates. Nothing could be more u n j us t th an thi s a tt emp t t o s t ave off a burden from themselves and cast it on those who were to succeed them. He believed that the measure would prove most burdensome ; and that, however popu lar it might be at present, ultimately, when its effect be came known, the people would say that they had " the bill, the whole bill, and nothing but the bill"—(laughter) —and that before twenty years had elapsed the right hon., gentleman (Mr. Gladstone) would be considered one of the most dangerous and mischievous Chancellors of the Ex chequer that the country had ever seen. (Laughter.) Mr. W. WILLIAMS said he should not have troubled the house had it not been for some misrepreeentations of what he had stated on former occasions by the right hon. baronet opposite (Sir J. Pakington). On the last occasion when he introduced the subject of the legacy duty, he pointed out the great inequality and injustice exhibited in the levying of the tax on personal property. On that oc casion he had referred to a return which demonstrated that the large properties enjoyed the most extraordinary . exemptions ; and he mainly approved of the measure be cause it would, for the future, be an efficient check upon a faulty system. As regarded the extension to the land, that was a bagatelle • but it was a great measure so far as it would compel something like justice in dealing with real property. The hon. gentleman then proceeded with great minuteness to comment upon and to dispute the calcula tions of the bon. baronet. The hon. baronet talked of sequestration, end the hon. and learned member for Wey mouth talked of considerations of morality, but where was the morality of a party which had imposed so long such a tax as the legacy tax, with all its gross inequalities, as it stood at this 'Dement ? This new tax would, after all, only be one of per cent. upon the estates of the landholders ; yet now they actually taxed poor widows 121 per cent. upon the legacies of their husbands. (Hear, hear.) The party which maintained the present system was the Pro testant party—the church party ; and he should like to know what Christianity there was in supporting the old and in objecting to the proposed new system? (Hear, hear.) Mr. Pitt had slid that this was a tax felt least of all taxes, because the rum who paid the money had not himself earned the money ; and he could not Understand upon what ground the landed interest could pretend there was an injustice is this partial extension to them of the prin ciple of an imeost applied for a long time to the rest of the community. The land had long been spared from taxation. Out of the gross taxation of the country (75,000,0001.) the land only paid 17,000,000/.—(oh, oh)—and he would under take to prove that at any time. (Hear, hear.-) He appealed to the landlords, therefore, for their own sake, not to follow the eediscreet lead of the hon. baronet. At any rate he would venture to tell the right hon. gentleman the Chancellor of the Exchequer that 'n proposing this mea sure he had sewn mo le public virtue and public courage than any statesman of the century*. (Hear, hear.) Sir J. TROLLOPE represent: I a large mass of small proprietors, aid ho regretted that the hon. gentleman who had just sat dwell had talked of the landed interest entirely as if it was aninterest made up of large properties. He denied the correctness of the hon. gentleman's calculations as to what land paid to the gross taxation of the country; he believed, 01 the contrary, that the land paid more than its share. }retook the case of small copyholders. Mr. WILLIAMS—They pay the tax now. Sir J. TROlLOPE—lncrease taxation on them and they would have no resource but a mortgage, and that in such properties was ruin. There were numberless such cases where this tax would result in what he would call confisca tion ; and on bdialf of that hard-working class he demanded the sympathies of the house. But he objected generally to this bill as unjust in its incidence. It would depend on the uncertainties of human life ; and, under it, some pro perties would pry ten times over what others paid. He knew of the case of a noble lord in whose family there had only been one stecessor since 1756 ; and if that noble lord lived three years more, there would thus have been only succession in a cciitury. In another case of a noble family there had been seven successions in 66 years. This was therefore a return to the old feudal system, when estates were held in deputy from the crown. (Hear, hear.) Then it was the law that a man could not sell an estate when there was this sat of debt due to the crown, until he had got the quietus from the crown. He did not complain of the amount of this proposed taxation; he complained of its difficulties and its injustice, and the viciousness of the principle. He also thought that under this bill estates would come rapidly into the hands of the Court of. Chan cery, for he believed men generally would repudiate guar dianship of children and such offices of trust, since, until they had cleared these estates in trust of debts to the crown. they could not deal freely with their own estates. (Hear.) With regard to corporations sole, he did not see why they should escape. (Hear, hear.) No doubt the humbler class of clergymen inducted into benefices had great expenses to •meet ; but then there were large as well as small prizes in the church, and the result of this proposal of exemption in this respect was, that the bishops had all, in the course of a debate in the House of Lords, expressed their delight with the measure. (Hear, hear, and laughter.) This was simply because the bishops would escape scot free; and under the circumstances he thought they had given a very indelicate vote. (Hear, hear, and laughter.) It was well known that many of the prelates of the church were receiving three or four times as much as the ecclesiastical commission or the legislature had sanctioned ; and he wanted to know whether the country, if it did permit the exemption proposed by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, would approve of the bishops giving a vote on a matter in which they were so directly concerned. (Hear, hear, and great laughter.) Certainly for his own part, his confidence in the correctness of the principle 'of permitting seats in the House of Lords to the bishops had been greatly shaken by what had passed on a recent occasion. In conclusion the hon. baronet asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer to look back to the debates of 1796, when, in a great na tional emergency, a tax like this being proposed, it had been rejected ; and he trusted that the House of Com mons would have the wisdom and the justice to reject it again. (Hear, hear.) Mr. A. PELLATT was there to express the opinions of his constituents, and his constituents were decidedly in favour of this Succession Bill; and he should accordingly vote against this amendment. The opinion of his consti tuents was strongly in favour of the budget as a whole. They objected to certain details--as, for instance, to the plan for licenses ; but believing that the extension of the legacy duty was a great and just measure, they had adopted the budget with acclamation. This had been called the "poor man's budget," and he thought with a great deal of justice ; and it was because all the benefit to •be conferred on the poor man from exemptions and reduc tions would be dependent upon - the adoption of the Succes sion Bill, that he would vote heaetily against the amend ment. Objections had been taken on the other side to taxing capital, but had they not for fifty years taxed capi tal, try making personal property liable to the legacy and stamp duty. The hon. member :ar Warwickshire said it was hard that a young man just .ucceeding to his father's estate should 'be called on to pay a heavy tax, when ho might be surrounded with difficulties. But was it not equally hard on a young man in commercial life who suc ceeded to his father's business ? He quite agreed with the hon. baronet, who spoke last, that a corporation sole should be exeinpt. If the Chancellor of the Exchequer had pro posed to limit the exemption to clergymen' having under 2001. a year, then he should have looked to the income tax, and other modes of taxation, to institute a fair compari son, but here it was proposed to entirely exonerate the bench of bishops. Hon. gentlemen on the other side of the house had expressed great sympathy with the owners of small copyhelds and freeholds. In London there was a great number of them, and he mixed with many, but none of•them had ever asked him to bring their case before the house. If hon. gentlemen opposite would be true to their sympathies with these people, let them do all in their power to get rid of the copyhold system. A point of ex treme value in this budget was that it increased the area of taxation in the right direction. A large measure of retrospective justice was due from the landed to the com mercial interest for a half a century's exemption from the legacy and probate duty, the same kind of exemption winch caused the breakin g out of the old French revolu tion. The tim e h a d arrived when justice and equity was to bo administered equally to the working, the middle, and the higher classes. Sir J. WALSH said there had been an union of parties to throw out Lord Derby's Government, and it appeared to him the government had brought forward this proposition in order to secure the support of the democratic party. He opposed this measure on principle. He considered that the grounds on which it had been so o Jen urged by the hon. member for Lambeth were , not founded on fact. The supporters of the measure took personal property on the one hand and real property on the other, and said the whole onus was thrown on real property. He combated that position entirely. This measure would not relieve the owners of personalty, a great many of whom were also the holders of realty, and they were going to inflict on the holders of personalty a great wrong, because by deriving a much larger amount of taxation from the most ob;ection able course, they thereby made it enter morn completely into the system of the taxation of the country, and rendered it more difficult to repeal it in future. Ho would not enter into the question so ably treated by the right hon. member (Sir J. Pakington) regarding the burdens on land, but he considered that no substantial injustice had been' done to the owners of personal property, considering the burdens on real property. Ho thought prbperty had been hardly dealt with in adjusting taxation, and that the. whole tendency of legislation of late year 3 had been to throw taxation on the property of the country, and to re lieve other classes, which, to 'a certain extent, was proper and wise, but there was a limit to everything. The great cry now was to relieve industry, to set commerce free, and relieve the labouring classes from taxation—all great theories in their way ; but the business of Government was to reconcile conflicting interests and claims. He did not consider that the circumstances of the country required them to call on the landowners to make this great and cruel sacrifide. When the legacy and probate duty were imposed they were in "the midst of a great war, but now they were at peace, the revenue was flourishing, the people prosperous, and there was no reason why the should call on the laudowp.ero to make Pull a sacrifwe. Re would en" -~--~-~ . deevoneto give a rapid view of the history of taxation. (Oh, biji aid laughter.) The hon. gdareman then read a Bw...es of 010/ 41 4tiorif3,. #hiell showed in the. result that in the lait 31 years 40 miTlioris of taiation it;.j been remitted, and only 10,500,0001. imposed, I,ing s balance ll favour of roillssion of 29 or 30 millions. Seeing this, he thoZht that there ought to be some pause in remission of taxation, in order to see whether the prosperity that prevailed would not work out such a change as would allow of further re missions, and al. a whether the productiveness of some arecles of taxation which remained would not prevent the necessity of laying this cruel burden on the landed. interest. He did not think that any effectual opposition to this bill cattld be carried on, but he left the case of the landed in terest in this particular to the sense of justice of the Eng lish people. Lord J. RUSSELL said the right hon. baronet the mem ber for Droitwich (Sir J. Pakington), speaking with great vehemence, tritxl to lead the louse away from .the consi deration of what was a simple matter of finance, and had , favoured them with a display of a somewhat passionate character, Ile was glad, therefore, to find that the ten dency of the very calm observations avhich had been de livered by the hon. baronet who had just resumed his seat had been to disarm the house, and, to bring it down to a somewhat sober state, in order fairly-to consider the ques tion before it. (A laugh.) It appeared to him that there was very little cause for all the warmth which the right hon. gentleman the member for Droitwich had evinced — (hear, hear)-.—for he thoUght that the queition Which they had to deterinine o n in committee was neither a very diffi cult nor a very complex one. During a considerable' time the house had heard a great deal in favour of , the revision of taxation, a view which he believed originally proceeded from a party on the Ministerial side of the house, and which was shared in by hon. gentlemen opposite. And when the right hon. gentleman the member for Bucking hamshire was Chancellor of the Exchequer he adopted this s'cheme of a revision of taxation as the one most likely to settle the question which had been so Long the subject of controversy between the great parties in that house. It certainly had always appeared to him that the" revision of taxation was not a matter which could be done all at once, but that it must naturally extend over many years, and that the question now under consideration must necessarily be included in any such revision. The right hon. gentle- Man opposite (Mr. Disraeli), it was quite true, made a most laudable effort in that direction, and though he did not consider the selection of his measures a very judicious one, nevertheless there could be no doubt his attempt was one for which he deserved every credit. (Hear.) The right hon. gentleman, however, had told the house that among the other subjects which he had to notice there was one which had fallen under the consideration of the Govern ment to whic'i he belonged, and that was the question of, the probate and legacy duties; and though, indeed, he was not as yet prepared with an actual measure, the necessity for one had not failed to present itself. (Hear.) Well, the question remained in that state, and when his right hon. friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer, on going through the various branches of our financial system, came to the legacy and probate duties, nothing could be more reasonable than that he should be struck with the injustice and irregularity of this tax. ,Here was, a tax which bore very hardly in really instances upon the succession to per sonal property, and which did not apply to real property at all. And then there followed those very artificial and very singular distinctions in our laws Of property, which de clared, 'according to certain provisions, that some descrip tions of property should be deemed settled, and others un settled. Again, the consideration was presented that pro perty held on lease of 999 years—not personal property— estates subject to a particular contingency—were considered real property, and thereby escaped taxation altogether. Nothing, therefore, was more natural—ro proposition more in accordance with v.xious views ,Which had been promulgated in that house as to the necessity for a revi sion of taxation, than one by which all' those anomalies all these irregularities should, 3n some degree, be corrected, and ho believed that his right hon. friend was likely to be confirmed in his intention by looking at the financial his tory of the country. For he could not fail to have been struck with finding that when Mr. Pitt proposed a tax' of this nature, he at first contemplated a tax upon real and personal property; he afterwards; however, divided the tax into two bills, and brought both under the considera tionof the House of Commons, and it was only after a di vision of 54 upon each side, that he abandoned his inten tion of imposing the tax upon real property. Therefore, nothing could be more clear than that it was Mr. Pitt's view that the two taxes should go together, if not, per. haps, in the same bill, at least that their enforcement should be simultaneous. And let' him pause to consider what were the causes of Mr. Pitt's defeat. Mr. Fox ob jected in the very strongest manner to the imposition of the tax upon personalties; he was defeated, however, in his attempt by a very large majority. The principle, how ever, of his opposition applied to both taxes, and rested upon his unwillingness to grant any increase of taxation for the'purpose of carrying on the war. Mr. Pitt was in tent upon the means 0.. carrying on the war ; while Mr. Fox, opposed to the war, was equally inte-it upon depriv ing the Minister of the means of its prosecution. But the latter right hon. gentleman, who had entirely failed in his opposition to the tax upon personal property, was successful in joining the opposition to the tax upon real property ; and let him (Lord J, Russell) just ask what was the origin of that success ? It would be found in the fact that at that time Mr. Pitt had failed at an earlier period of his life in carrying 'that reform in Parl'ament of which he had been the advocate, and he had no doubt that if he had carried his measure 'of reform—if the commercial and manufacturing interests of the country had been duly re presented in this house in the year 1795, that the two taxes would have been imposed together. (Cheers from the Mi nisterial benches.) But at a late period the right hon. gentleman referred to a discussion which took place in 1842, and represented him (Lord J. Russell) as if he had on that occasion opposed the extension of the legacy duty to real property. If, however, the right hon. gentleman would refer to what actually passed on that occasion he would find that his objections were of a totally different nature. On that occasion his objec ion went rather to the non-in terference with. the existing arrangements, as, if any inter ference at all took place, settled property must be made subject to the tax. Well; now, however, his right honour able friend made the extension of the tax a feature of his financial scheme. But he had made another objection, which was that the Chancellor of the Exchequer had made his arrangements regarding the finances of the year ; and as he had not proposed a succession tax in his ways and means, that he' (Lord J. Russell) was not going to propose an additional duty. That, hOwever, was not the case at the present moment, for the Chancellor of the Exchecrtier had included the proposed extension in his scheme. Well, then, the question was whether they would continue this tax upon succession, and so continuing it make it a just and an equal tax. The right hon, baronet the member for Droit wich was certainly struck with the injustice of the princi ple of the tax— (Cheers from the Opposition benches)—and he had gone on to say that it was contrary to the teachings of political economy. He could not bear to see a tax im posed upon successions at a time when there were very great difficulties to be encountered by any new tax. The right hon. gentleman, however, so long as the tax applied merely to personal property, had overlooked all that viola tion of principle and the doctrines of political economy. (Ministerial cheers.) Indeed, it was but the other day that he (Lord J. Russell) happened to be speaking to a person who had been appointed executor under a. will, and the party informed him that he had to pay the tax three times over within the space of two years, the property in ques tion having been left to a person in but a very humble situation—a market gardener. Well, there could be no doubt that was a very great hardship ; but, said the right hon. baronet,. get rid of the tax altogether. Now, let it be remembered, there were' 2,000,000 G. derived from a tax, and the right hon. gentleman has not proposed.• to get rid of it otherwise than by his speech—(hear, hear, and laughter from the Ministerial benches)—for he had never proposed a single measure by which the hardship of the tax might bo disposed of. And hero with regard to that clause of the bill affectine timber, which had excited the strongest anger of the right hon. gentleman, and which he designated as amounting to plunder, if Fe had adverted to the act of 1795 he would have found, that while plate, which was bequeathed without a right of dispoLal, was not subjected to the tax ; plate, on the contrary, which might be disposed of, was liable to the tax upon successions. And that was the principle which was adopted in the case of timber. But the right hon. gentleman, who was so indulgent in the case of plate, became suddenly indignant when there ' was mention of timber, because that immediately affected the land, and when any question of that kind was started there was at once a chance of revolution. (Hear, and laughter from the Ministerial benches.) It did, therefore, seem to him, that if they meant to m a k e th e t a x a t a ll equa l an d consistent, they ought at least to he guided by a principle, and he believed that the house generally would admit, as the county - had agreed already , that if they were to have a succession tax at all, it ought to apply to all kinds of property, and that the House of Commons ought not to ex ercise its powers in a merely capricious manner. However, gentlemen were so much transported upon the subject that the right hon. baronet (Sir J. Pakington) thought it ex tremely fatal to have a tax of the kind, and he said that our institutions were all put in jeopardy by such a propo sal. Now he (Lord J. Russell) believed that the only matter in question which brought our institutions into jeopardy, was the language used by the right hon. baronet the mem ber for Droitwich, and that used by the hon. baronet the member for Lincolnshire (Sir J. Trollope), in connection with the other house of Parliament. (Hear, and laughter,) For not only had theSe hon. baronets complained,, in terms by no means ambiguous, of the course adopted by the other house, but they actually divided it into two pares ties, and whilst theyare tolerably well satisfied with the con duct of the temporal peers, they have a serious ground for complaint against the spiritual peers. He confessed that whilst the motion which had been made to separate the functions of ecclesiastics from the duties of the house of Parliament had rather alarmed him, yet if henceforward such a motion were to receive the eloquent support of the members for Droitwich and Lincoln, he must, and ho should, regard its repetition with very great dismay. (Consi derable laughter.) Such then being the case, he trusted the right hon. gentleman would not pursue his opposition in so strenuous—he might almost say in so vehement— a manner ; but that he would regard the measure of the Government as an attempt to make the imposition of the tax more fair and equal. And thus, as the proposal had met generally with the approbation of the people, so the principle would receive the sanction of the House of Commons, and they would not be further detained from entering upon its details in committee. (Hear, hear.) Mr. E. DUNCOMBE said the tax now proposed in volved the necessity of either borrowing money to pay it, or else necessitated the sale of the land. (Hear, hear.) But he could not understand how a Government, calling itself " Liberal Conservative," could conceive a measure, and propose it to Parliament, which would be so liberal in its effect and so conservative in its nature as to compel the confiscation of the landed propel ty of the country, and he, therefore, should decidedly oppose it. (Hear, hear.) Sir E. DERING was prepared to contend that in the revision of taxation referred to by the noble lord the mem ber for London it was the bounden duty of her Majesty's Government to place all the various interests of the coun try on a footing of the most perfect equality. (Hear.) The house then divided, and the numbers were— For the motion 268 FOr the amendment 185 Majority 83 The house then went into committee on the bill' pro forma, and the Chairman h av i ng reported progress, ob tained leave to sit again on Thursday next. THE SAVINGS BANKS BILL. On the motion of the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHE QUER, this bill was real a second time, with' the under standing that any discussion with respect to its provisions should be taken in the committee. The Savings Banks Annuit3r, Bill was also read a second time. NEW WRIT FOR CHATHAM.

FITZGERALD havhig moved for the issue of a new writ for a member to represent the borough of Sligo, in the room of Mr. Towneley, Mr. BUTT moved, as an amendment, that the writ be suspended for a fortnight. • By assenting to that amend ment, hon. members would have an opportunity of read ing the evidence which had been taken before the Sligo election cbm.mittee ' and which had already b een or d ere d to be printed:: .(11ear, hear.) Lord PALMERSTON strongly advised the house to agree to the . motion of the hole. and learned member. (Cheers.) . Mr. BOUVERIE was of opinion that the course pro posed to 'be adopted by the hon. member for Youghal was altogether wrong; and that, if the house agreed to it, they would be establishing a rule Which in principle was utterly indefensible. Mr: VANCE contended that the writ should be sus pended, ori the ground that the committee had reported that bribery and priestly intimiklation were practised at the last eleetio," for Sligo. Mr. R,..M. FO2( supported the issue of the writ. Mr. FITZGERA_LD said he would not withdraw his motion, but would consent to the adjournment of the debate until Thursday, by which time the evidence would be in the hands of members. _ Mr. WHITESIDE supported the amendment, and ex pressed a hope that the hon. momber for Westminster (Sir J. Shelley), who had been so vigilant and alive when he wished to prosecute an hon. and gallant gentleman for promising the office of postmaster to a voter, would be equally vigilant on this occasion,' and move for a prosecu tion of the Sligo alderman. (Laughter and cheers.) Sir J. SHELLEY rose ainidst cries of "oh," and said that he should have been perfectly ready to follow up the case against Sir F. Smith, had he received any encourage ment from the hon. and learned gentleman and his friends '; but the fact was that they voted against his proposition. For his part, he diiinot believe the house was in earnest on this subject ; and he further believed that there was no one on the opposition side of the house who did not look upon every question as a question of party. (Oh, oh.) If the hon. and learned gentleman opposite was sincere in his detestation of bribery, he should be obliged. to "him if he would stand by him when he brought forward his metion, which he should do, fir the prosecution of Mr. Mare. (Oh, oh, and laughter.) I''ter some further observations, during which The ATTORNEY-GENERAL admitted that the cir cumstances of the present case were special, and warranted the application of. Mr. Butt for further postponement, Mr. V. SCULLY moved the adjournment of the debate vntil that day week. Mr. M. O'CONNELL seconded Mr. Scully's amend ment. The house then divided, when there appeared— For the adjournment . Against it 160 21 Majority in favour of the adjournment 139 On our re-appearance in the gallery we found Mr. I. BUTT on his legs. He said that he voted for the adjournment on this principle. It might appear that the suspending of the writ altogether would be casting a. stigma upon the ' borough. He did not, however, know how they were to have the evidence printed earlier than a fortnight. He now moved that the debate be adjourned for a fortnight ? according to the precedent they had in the. Harwich election case. • _ _ _ Lord PALMERSTON suggested to the hon. and learned member for Youghal the propriety of agreeing to the ad journment of : the question for a week, as such a cow -se would be quite compatible with the hon. and learned member's ulterior views: It did not follow by assenting to the motion, that the writ should issue that day, but simply that it should not issue before then. Mr. BUTT yielded to the suggestion of the noble lord, upon the understanding that if the evidence be not ready at that time the house should have an opportunity of dis cussing the question. After an observation from Mr. R. FOX, _ Mr. I. BUTT said that he read the eVidence given in the newspaper reports. When the evidence was placed in an authentic form he would be prepared' to submit a motion upon the subject. The question was then adjourned until Monday week. Mr. F. FRENCH called the attention of her Majesty's Government to the habitual imprisonment of shipwrecked sailors and other British subjects ; being persons of colour, by the authorities of South Carolina, and moved for copies of all correspondence on the subject with her Majesty's consul at Charleston. • The motion was . reed. to. house adjourned at a quarter to two o'clock.
