He concurred most cordially in th e course proposed by the Noble Viscount in order to enable her Majesty to complete her gracious intentions in making the provision for the Noble Lord. The Duke of RICHMOND having had the honour of serving under the Noble Lord on foreign stations, could not let the present opportunity pass by without expressing No ble Viscount, great gratification at what had fallen from the Vis Count, and also from the Noble Duke who had spoken last. I ,Vhen he first heard of the rebellion in Canada it was a great consolation to him to know that the command of those gallant men, the 22d Light Infantry, who put down the rebellion in Canada, was entrusted to an officer and soldier eminent alike for the coal bravery which he dis played mad the equal justice he administered to those who served under him. He (the Duke of Richmond) was glad to find that he was in the command of her Majesty's troops, although he had previously been her Majesty's Governor- General of Canada. He (the Duke of Richmond) be lieved that to the firmness displayed by that Noble Lord and the excellent manner in which he carried his means into execution, much of the tranquillity of that country was to be attributed. He would not weaken ;slat bad heed said by the Noble Lord at the head of her Majesty's Government, or that still greater authority, the Noble Duke ; but he must say that never in his life was he called upon to give a vote which was more satisfactu7 to his own mind, as he firmly believed that Lord Seaton had as strong claims upon the country as any man alive.

The Duke of BUCKING HAM presented a vast number of petitions, principally from places in Yorkshire and Dor setshire, against any alteration in the Corn-laws. The Marquis of WESTMINSTER presented a peti tion to the contrary effect, from lia,lington, in Lancashire. The Noble Marquis expressed his opinion in favour of the alterations in the Corn-laws at considerable length, but in so low a tone that it was impossible for us to collect in the gallery a single sentence. We understood him to say that the landowners were under a great mistake in supposing that a repeal of the law would be injurious to them. They could suffer but very little by it, and the population of the country would be greatly the 6ainers. Lord ASHBURTON, in a tone that was inaudible in the gallery, explained some statement which had been alluded to by the Marquis of Westml.nster. He believed the present clamour on the subject of the Corn-laws was got up by the industry of a sort of Joint Stock Agitation Company. 4 '.* A Volume of this Work will be regularly published every month, until the whole is completed in 18 Volumes.

The most powerful in the world, with which a man of ten stone weight can raise an imperial barrel of water forty three feet high in a minute, but with no other Pump yet tried Laaiottte and a-half. Their practical gain is most extraor -s"narYt seldom below 70, and mole frequently above 100 per cent, takint , the average of the results of every altitude from foot to 100 f ee t high.- This remarkable gain in the art of r aising water was effected in the simplest manner possible, b eing merely by substituting a rolling instead of a sliding prin- Fiple for Pumps, by which their friction and leakage was abo lished, after the tens of thousands of bootless attempts that had been made by the ablest mechanics in the world for 2,000 years. For a long time after this immortal invention was publicly introduced, a host of bullying novices insulted society by pre dicting that it would prove limited and frail, who are now tiivellicg about that their trade would be ruined, because Fountain Pumps prove 300 per cent the most durable, whe ther used by the power of man, horse, or steam, and they are so economical and invariable in their action, that they com monly perform for maltsters, brewers, and dyers for years with out the least expense or the slightest variation. Also, so re markably simple, that smiths, millwrights, wheelwrights, car penters, &c., as well as hydraulic engineers, successfully un dertake their fixing and reparation, neither are Fountain Pumps retarded, choked, nor injured by occasionally delivering d eranges few tons of sand, although a very little of that material soon reranges and seriously damages the best Friction Pumps. Slowly 'Weed, the art of raising water approached perfection 4,000 years ago. The beautiful ;Miss Rebecca brought up water from a Kell in a pitcher upon her shuulder for her sweetheart's camels. -Since then appeared the four principles namely, two limited, and ‘ two unlimited principles—two of them sliding principles, a one spiral principle, and one a rolling principle. Ist. The Chain-pump in action is direct and simple ; but by friction and leakage very defective and dreadfully uncertain, and from its numerous parts highly complicated. The Chain- PuTp is a combination of inefficient expensive lumber—a iimited sliding principle. 2d. Archimedes' Screw-pump is founded upon a brilliant idea; but its applicability is very confined—a limited spiral principle. 3d. Tesibies' Pipe and Poker Pump, or the Athenian Squirt. '_!'his is th e root and pr i nc i ple of all Piston and Cylinder Pumps, und er every name an d modification. All Pumps upon this plan are of necessity bad beyond remedy, and stupid indeed must they be who expect the contrary, because mostly above two-fifths of the labour employed is entirely wasted by their friction and leakage, and when accurately tested against the new principle, always prove to be but contemptible machines. Nevertheless these imperfect Pumps stood unrivalled for the last 2,000 years—an unlimited skiing principle. 4tli, and last Shalder's Pump appeared and made laughing s istocl;iof the other three Pumps, and exalted the art of raising vvatet. to a science. The Fountain Pump is neither more nor less than the Pump made absolute, because without any dis coverable defect or imperfection it possesses every essential Property for the purpose intended in the highest degree. AN UNLIMITED ROLLING PRINCIPLE. Dr. Birkbeck. President of the Mechanics' Institution, Lon don, says the Fountain Pump is free from the liabilities and defects of the common Friction Pump, and approaches a perfect Hydraulic Machine. The Vice-President, Professor John Millington, Esq., false, . 1 “ S., published a work in 1830 , and therein makes a rash , f° 4l , and silly assertion, that the new principle is limited, aNI although, from its diminished friction it has its advantages to Borne cases, it cannot he used for great elevations. Never theless, Fountain Pumps prove equally durable for lifts above as below one hundred feet. Millington might surely have known that flexibility was noproof of frailty, nor rigidity of durability. The rigid teeth of mamma and her four sisters were mostly gone, but their flexible tongues remained in full activity when their ages, united with their only brother, exceeded five hun aired years. And the Connectors or (flexible Cones) in Foun tain Pumps prove also not only surpassing durable, but almost indestructible. CASES SUFFICIENT. Thirty Fountain Pumps, that cost above 1,0001., have not cost 2/ per year for all the connectors, though twenty-four of them, from fifteen to one hundred feet long, are used to water the public roads from Wymandham to Aylsham, and at Yarmouth. A Treble-acting Fountain Pump at Diss brewery (horse power), the connectors lasted five years, lift one hundred feet. N.B. It is the packing that scrapes up the water in the o ld Pump that wears out. And it i s t h e connector that rolls Up the water in the New Pump that wears out. Mark the next two cases, both Pumps having done the same work. A Single-acting Fountain Pump at Messrs. Horton's, dyers, Norwich (manual power). Here the connectors of the New Pump last four times as long as did the pa king of the old Pump it superseded. A Double-acting Fountain Pump at Messrs. Stark's, dyers, Norwich (steam power). Here also the packing of their old Treble-acting Pump (superseded) used to last about three months, now the connectors of their new pump last above six teen months. This noble machine has not cost Bs. a year for connectors, though constantly at work, and delivers eight im perial barrels of water per minute, PRACTICALLY PROV ING THAT IN SKILFUL HANDS' THE NEW PRIN CIPLE IS DECIDEDLY TIIE MOST DURABLE. The Seven Road Fountain Pumps, fixed early in 1838, be tween Norwich and Aylsham, have not cost a shilling, nor varied in effect. The Ten Feiction Pumps (alias Pumplings) mixed with them, have often been repaired, and the other day not one of them would answer the helm—so much for comparative frailty. EFFECT. At the many fair trials made by Int.n, horse, and steam Puwei-, the rolling principle beat the sliding principle, upon an average, nearly eighty per cent., in raising water, 10, 20, 30, 45 , and 70 feet high, and volumes of testimonials, by land and sea, certify similar results. But, whereas there are still many novices striving hard to Perpetuate ignorance and the Athenian spurious Pomp in pre ference to the New English genuine Pump and common sense, Pretending that they can make miraculous friction Pumps with out friction, Therefore, let us at once come to deeds to try the ques ti°n, and shame the fool who first cries " Hold, enough.' • C ONDITIONS OF PROPOSED TRIALS AGAINST TIME. Take four Pumps 4 the Old Plan, and four Pumps of the New 'Plan, with mechanical parts alike, anti so adjusted that a 'Han of ordinary strength may exert his full force, and raise with barrels fifteen feet, one barrel fifty feet, and nine imperial gallons of water 200 feet high, or over the London Monument. The number of seconds required with one pump less than Kith the other, will be its gain in time and labour. The competitors should find the pumps and the public the Pipes, in order to prove that engineers of the old school knew al much about raising water as sucking monkeys. Well, after all the stupid, lying, and even destructive oppo- Vti'M (Neomarket to wit), the graduated scal e o f th e Foun tain Pump is pra c ti ca lly an d success f u lly cat r i e d out f rom t h e delivering of a single pint of water per stroke to the delivering of 6,000 imperial gallons of water per minute. And now to congratulate all nations upon the complete suc eeu of an invention of boundless and undying utility, which stature bars surpassing, is highly gratifyino , To the World's Obedient Servant and Instructor, W.

I inquired of two men pumping, between London-bridge and the Tunnel, how long it took them to fill their six-barrel water Cart, lift thirteen feet ?—Answer : About seven minutes, quick working. With a No. Six New Plan they could have done the like work in seventy seconds. One Fountain Pump would about equal all the three Cockney built Friction Pumps at the Queen's Barracks, Norwich. W.

CASE OF SIR FELIX BOOTH AND MR. HOME. WERE any further proofs required to give authenticity to the Papers anti Documents already placed before the public, in regard to some of the transactions i n which Sit Felix Booth, Bart., has latterly occupied a con spieuous share, it would not be difficult or irrelevant to show an additional instance of the " want, of attention of the Baro net" to fulfil his compacts with Mr. Home. By the agreement of 1836, existing between the parties, it is declared, " that in case of any dispute or difference arising on either side as to any matter or thing contained in this agreement, the same in all cases shall be settled by reference." Would it be believed after this, that all attempts at an '• amicable adjustment" of the matters contained in the said agreement had been carefully avoided by Sir Felix Booth, though repeatedly impressed upon him by Mr. liilome, and that twelve months had been in vain expended in soliciting this " patron of the inventions of others" to give his attention to such a course, and to act conformably with his contracts ? What are we to think of a man, who, with holding the payments for an invention, by which he is acquiring wealth, puts his " own interpretation" upon " mutual deeds," and refuses to submit to " arbitration," though bound to do so by the very words of the agreement itself ! Verily the wise man is as a jewel, and gladdens the heart of the beholder ; but he that "climbeth above his station" showeth only his naked ness ! Copy of Original Letter to Sir Felix Booth, Bart. : " SIR,—As no advice has been forwarded to me in reply to my letters of the 15th and 27th of August, containing a repeti tion of the proposals made by me for an adjustment of my de mands, and believing that you cannot very consistently perse vere in your present line of conduct, so contrary to the usages of business and of fair dealing, I again point out the propriety of your taking an early opportunity to direct your attention to the performance of the engagements you have entered into with me. " Pei fectlysatiafied of the justice of my views i n regard to these transactions, I call your recollection to the extraordinary fact, that after twelve months' application for an adjustment of my claims, no approach whatever has been made on your side to attain that object, or the slightest reason assigned for your present unexampled course. " At the same time I wish to intimate, that having offered a reference' on a former occasion, should that mode prove more agreeable, I can have no objection to leave the construction of the matters in the deed to the adjudication there contemplated, or submit it to mutual friends for " arbitration ;" or I s h a ll be prepared with the names of two of the most eminent distil lers in London, conversant in such matters, before whom the necessary papers shall be submitted, and by whose opinions I shall be governed. Offering these proposals with perfect sincerity, but without prejudice to my rights, and allowing you one clear week for a reply, I am, Sir, your obedient servant, DAVID lIOAIE.

The Morning Chronicle of this d a y, re t u rning to th e important question of the Corn-lawn, observes Look to your home trade ; think of your home customers, the agrieultu ists ; and when you pay double for your bread, remember how much of the differen c e y ou rece i ve b ac k again in exchange for your silks and cottons.' Such has hitherto been the palmary argument of the monopolists. A little flaw in it has al w ays b een o b v i ous , i nasmuc h as this surplus wealth in his home customers, on which the manufacturer is to thrive, has previously been extracted oct of his own pocket. So far as the Corn-laws act on the home market, he sells his goods to recover his own cash back again. The shopkeeper might, in like manner, grow rich by the profits on the articles that he vends to the thief by whom his pulse had been taken. The custom of the bread taxers can never replace the value of the bread-tax to the industrial interest on which it is levied." . — The Morning Herald, in the course or a lead i ng article sugges t e d b y t h e approachin g discussion on the Corn-laws, makes the following remarks : The discussion on Mr. Villiers's motion for a repeal of the Corn-laws is fixed for Tuesday? By way of pre paration for that event, the Anti-Corn-law party has agi. tated the country without intermission for twelve months. The agriculturists, on the other hand, have contented them selves with getting up a few petitions in favour of the ex isting system. Never were parties more equally matched as tacticians. The enemies of the Corn-laws exhibit boundless energy_consurnmate impudence—mendacity without measure. They try to coax the labourers—to mystify the farmers—to render the class of land owners odious. They act in concert. They never throw away a chance. They are not to be baf fled by occasional discomfiture." —The Morning Post observes, with reference to the debate on Thursday night, on Lord Stanley's Irish Registration Bill :—" Nothing can exceed the bitterness of mortificat ion and spitefulness of rancour with which the O'Connell or Ministerial party have received the decision of the House of Commons upon Lord Stanley's Bill far the amendment of the reg i strat i on system in Ireland. This unprincipled party seem inca pable of conceiving that any measure should be at tempted from a pure and simple desire to promote t ru th and honesty, and to p ut an eed to wickedn ess an d fraud. They are so blundering in their rancorous rage as to attribute all that has been done, arid successfully done, to the hostility which Conservative s enterta i n towards them, and th e principles upon which they affect to stand. Now , however great that h os tili ty may be. the success in the pre sent instance is not of that kind." —The Mot tiny Advertiser thus expresses Itself on th e sub ject of Lord Stanley's Irish Registration Bill :—L or d Stanley's Bill—which, under pretence . of amending th e laws relating to the registration of voters in Ireland, vir tually aims a death-blow at one -half of the Liberal consti tuency of that country—should serve as an emphatic warn ing of the evils to be expected should that Nobl e L or d , or those who co-operate with him , e ver gain an ascendancy in the Councils of the State. Like all propositions from the same quarter, the object is not to amend, but to vitiate and destroy." Madame Vestris has p re vailed on Mr. Ch ar l es . tremble t o per f orm fi ve nights more previous _to his d e p ar t ure for It a ly t o j o i n hi s ( laughter, Miss Adelaide kemble Bone diet a n d Charles Surface will be his next characters. The re ceipts at Covent-garden on Thursday evening equalled those on Tuesday night. Lord Milton has quite recovered from the effects of his late accident. His Lordship was out with Lord Fitz \valiant's hounds on Monday. Among the guests of Lord Fitz- William this week have been the Bishop of Peterb oroug h and the Um Mr. Toiler, a Dissenting Minister of Ketterin g , &c. The Duke of RICHMOND was surprised at the statement of the Noble Marquis, that the repeal sf these laws would not h ave th e e ff ect o f i n j u ri ng the agricultural interest, because it would not reduce the price of corn. Then why all this agitation for their repeal. It was no such thing. They knew that if they could persuade Parliament to repeal the protection of the agriculturalists, their interests would be destroyed. The farmers would not be able to employ half the men, nor to pay them half the wages they now did; and what would be its effect in Scotland and Ireland ? He complained of this, and the landed interest had a right to complain, that year after year this question was agitated, and thereby no landed pro prietor could sell his land, nor any tenant think it safe to take a lease, while certain paid parties went about the country teaching the labourer not to look with confidence to his employer, and preaching that the interest of the landlord and the tenant was not one and the same. Neither was this a question on which all the manufacturers agreed, for many looked forward to these discussions, year after year, with great alarm ? He hoped the Bill would not pass the House of Commons. He believed it would not, but if it should, he hoped their Lordships would reject it by a large and triumphant majority. The Marquis of WESTMINSTER said the Ncble Duke felt strongly, and expressed himself warmly on the question. He (the Marquis of Westminster) thought the only means of putting down the agitation the Noble Duke complained of was to agree to this Bill, which he hoped would reach their Lordships. He did not say it would not affect the agricultural interests, but that it would not materially do so. He was satisfied it would put an end to the agitation which existed, and benefit most materially the country. lie could not but earnestly ex press his hope that the Bill would be passed. Lord WYN FORD presented a petition from a place in Essex, against certain clauses of the Irish Corporation Bill. The Bishop of L L ANDAFF had a petition to present, which was the first of a class that he believed would soon be numerous. It was a petition from the Minister, Church wardens, and others of the parish of Granby, in Nova Scotia, praying that that House would not sanction any law taking away the endowments of the Church in any of the colonies long settled upon her by Act of Parliament. Lord WHARNCLIFFE presented numerous petitions from the owners and occupiers of land in the West Riding of Yorkshire, praying that the House would allow no alte ration to be made in the Corn-laws. The Archbishop of CANTERBURY presented a pe tition in favour of new endowments for the Church, and extension of Church accommodation; also one signed by a large body of Clergymen, against certain clauses of the Tithe Commutation Bill. CLERGY RESERVES BILL. The MOST REV. PRELATE said that on behalf of his Brother of Exeter he had to give notice, that on Monday next that Rev. Prelate would move for a copy of the de spatch written by Sir F. Maitland, dated December, 1827, in so far as it related to clergy reserves in Canada ; also a copy of a despatch to Lord Bathurst, mentioned in the said despatch, which contained the views of the legal authorities in Canada upon that question. Ile had further to give notice that it was his intention on Friday, the 10th of April, to move an address to her Majesty, humbly praying that her Majesty would not give her Rlyal assent to the Clergy Reserves Bill, which had received the approbation of the Legislature in Canada. It was mot his intention then to occupy the time of their Lordships, but the subject was one of se much importatte, that he could not but ask that, in the meantime, their Lordships would give their most serious attention to the matter. He would have considered himself guilty of a criminal neglect of duty had he failed to give their Lord ships an opportunity of resisting such great spoliation as would be committed by that Bill. MESSAGE: FROM THE QUEEN—LORD SEATON. The Order of the Day for taking into consideration her Majesty's Message relative to Lord Seaton having been read, Viscount MELBOURNE said—My Lords, I now rise to move that an humble address be presented to her Majesty expressive of your Lordships' approbation of the sentiments contained in her Majesty's mes sage, and to assure her Majesty that your Lord ships would be happy to concur with her in carry ing her wishes into effect. Upon the early life and career of the Noble Lord, who is the subject of the present message, it is not my intention to ex patiate, particularly in the presence of so many Noble Lords whom I see around me, who are so much better able to speak upon such subjects than I can possibly he. Suffice it to say that from his youth he has been a soldier, and a distinguished soldier—that he has held the most confidential situations under the moat distinguished commanders, and borne a considerable share in that series of triumphs which have shed such a lustre upon the British nation, and conferred so much glory upon the British arms.—( Hear, hear.) But, my Lords, allow me to call your attention to the subject of the present Mes sage. After having been Governor of Upper Canada, the Noble Lord became Commander of her Majesty', Forces in both these Provinces. During the period of that command there broke out that unfortunate insurrection which, for a time, entirely un settled that country, and which he met with the promptitude and decision, and prudence and precaution, which rendered it of very short duration, and speedily restored the tranquillity of that country.—(Hear, hear.) This happened under the Government of my Lord Gos port, and when he left Canada Lord Seaton succeeded to the Government of the Provinces. When her Majesty was advised to send out Lord Durham as Governor-General of the Canadas the Noble Lord instantly accepted, under the new Governor-General, the post Ito had formerly held as Commander of the Forces in these provinces; not, in my opinion, the least prudent or signal act of his Lordship's life, and evincing at the same time the moderation of his character, and h.s anxiety to serve her Majesty in any capacity. He put aside all personal feelings, and acted in the most cordial manner with the new Governor- General.—( Hear, hear.) I think, my Lords, this was not the Ica It noble trait in his character.—( Hear, hear.) He acted in a manner which did honour to the service, in performing the duty required of him without regard to personal considerations, or to circumstances which might by others be considered humiliating.—(Hear, hear.) When the war broke out again, he acted with the same promptitude and prudence, and the disturbances were soon put down. I say, my Lords, that the prudence and wisdom of his civil services were equally conspicuous and valuable, and such, I believe I may say, as to command the universal approbation of the House and the country, and to merit the honours which her Majesty has beettyad vised to bestow upon him. I call upon your Lordships to concur with the other House of Parliament to give him the means of supporting that honour. To this applica tion there has been but one exception, and that a most honourable one. The only obstacle was a doubt in the mind of the Noble and Gallant Lord himself, whether the services which he had rendered were such as to merit the honours and rewards bestowed on him. That doubt was expressed to the Commander of the Forces, and I be lieve that it was the only doubt expressed in any quarter, but we, my Lords, rather agreed with the general voice of the country, than with the Noble and Gallant Lord himself; and therefore, in the confident expectation of your Lordships' assent I move, " that an humble Ad dress be presented to her Majesty, thanking her Majesty for her most gracious message informing the House that her Majesty, having taken into consideration the services of John, Lord Seaton, as Governor-General of Canada, and Commander of the Forces in that province, and had determined to confer upon him a signal mark of her favour, and to assure her Majesty that this House will most cheerfully concur in any measure necessary to accom plish that most important purpose." The Duke of WELLINGTON entirely concurred in what had fallen from the Noble Lord respecting the ser vices and character of his Noble and Gallant Friend, with so much feeling and good taste.—( Hear, hear.) He had had the honour of being connected with him in service at an early period of his life, and he must fay that at all times, and under all circumstancos, he gave that promise of prudence, zeal, devotion, and ability which he had since so nobly fulfilled. He entirely concurred with the Noble Viscount in all that he said respecting the con duct of his Noble and Gallant Friend, in taking the command of the troops, although it was not expedient for the purpose of the Government to place him again in the Government of the Provinces. He agreed with the Noble Lord in wishing that such ex. amples as that which had been shown by the Noble Lord might be always followed in her Majesty's service, for he must say that there never was a brighter example of devotion to his duty than that which had b een manifested by the Noble Lord. He was most happy therefore, to hear that the Noble Viscount declared i n such strong terms his approbation, and that of her Majesty's Government, of the conduct of the Noble Lord. He viewed with the greatest gratification the intima mation of her Majesty's gracious favour to the Noble Lord, Visconnt STRANGFORD complained of an error in certain returns which had been laid upon the Table of the number of Royal Marines employed on shore, the sum total of which did not correspond with the amount of the items. The Earl of MINTO gave some explanation, which was inaudible. Lord FITZGERALD presented a petition from a County in Ireland, praying that ni alteration nitlit be made in the Corn-laws. The Marquis of BUTE presentel two petitions from places in Ayrshire, praying for the abolition of patronage in the Church of Scotland. The Marquis of NORMANBY, in moving that the House should go into Committee on the Metropolitan Police Courts' Bill, begged to say that it was not intended by it to increase the power of stipendiary magistrates— it was merely a Bill to settle and define the limits of the districts governed by the Courts, and not to trench upon the powers of the local magistrates. One new power it gave which he thought would not be objected to, it was giving the Government power to appoint a magistrate, not to one Court alone, where he would have to sit for six hours a day, probably there would not be business to oc cupy him half thai; time. They therefore proposed to ap point him to preside in several Courts. He thougnt that in removing nuisances, the Metropolitan Police Courts Bill of last year had given rise to another nuisance, by the encouragement to common informers. He proposed to in troduce a clause to remedy that, and he understood from the Commissioners of Police that they were willing to un dertake the responsibility of removing the nuisance without the intervention of the informers. After a few words from Lord WYNFO RD, the House went into Committee on the Bill. Lord W YNFORD rose to object to the Bill, but his Lsrdship's observations were quite inaudible in the ,gallery. We understood him as stating that its effect would be to do away with County Magistrates, for if any number of them were assembled to hear any cause, and a Police Ma gistrate entered the room, that instant their jurisdiction would cease, and therefore tile) , would not degrade themselves by holdinOgee under such circumstances; but his chief ob jection t was that it would corrupt the rural population if they were sent to the same prison with the population of the town, who were versed in the most approved modes of committing crime. He therefore proposed as amend ments, to substitute the words " limits of the Central Cri minal Court," for the words, "metropolitan police dis tricts ;" a clause providing that no more than twenty-seven Magistrates should be appointed to execute the duti.s of the said Courts, and one or two other clauses, the purport of which did not reach us. POLICE OF THE METROPOLIS, The Marquis of N 0 DIAN BY said he V would rather drop the Bill than assent to the amendments of the Noble Lord. With regard to the proviso that her Majesty should not appoint more than twenty-seven Police Magistrates he thought it quite unnecessary, as the number was limited by the Act of last Session. With regard to the main al teration he thought it would be better if the Noble Lord had ascertained what the limits of the Central Criminal Court were? There was no power given by the Act to extend the jurisdiction of these Courts where it did not al ready exist. fie begged, once for all, to say ho had not the slightest intention to throw any reflection upon the County Magistrates. The Noble Lord's observations ap plied to the 13111 of last year, and not to the present one. The power of the Police Magistrate to supersede to County Magistrates was given in the Bill of last Session, but the County Magistrates had by this Bill many powers which would not be possessed by the Police Magistrates. The Bill sought simply to define, and not to restrict their powers. Be repeated, he would rather drop the Bill than accede to the amendments, especially since the Metropo litan Police had been extended. Viscount SYDNEY hoped the Noble Lord would re. strict the establishment of Police Courts, within either division of the metropolitan district. The LORD CHANCELLOR said the present Bill was introduced, because the provisions of the Bill of last Sassi,,n were not correctly expressed; and its object was to improve that Bill, and correct certain evils that had beer, found to arise from it. If the Noble Lord objected to that Bill, it would be better for him to amend that one. Lord WYNFORD said he wished to prevent this Bill being made a job of, and introduced into those districts where it would do no good, and a great deal of harm. The Duke of WELLINGTON said it appeared to him the best plan would be, that the Chairman should re port progress and ask leave to sit again, and, in the mean. time, for his Noble Friend to print his amendments, and give their Lordships an opportunity of considering them. The Marquis of NORMANBY would not object to the propo.,ition of the Noble Duke if it were pressed, but it was desirable to pass the Bill as soon as possible. Lord REDESDALE asked how many new divisions were intended to be created? The Marquis of I' , IORM A NBY said the Bill gave the power of creating districts as necessity might arise. At present, there was no intention to extend the operation of the Bill to every part of metropolitan districts. He had no objection to the Bill being re-committed, but he should decidedly object to its being referred to a Select Com mittee. After a short conversation, the Chairman reported pro gress, and obtained leave to sit again on Monday. The Bills on the table were forwarded a stage, and the House adjourned shortly after Seven o'Clock. HOUSE OF COAIMONS, MARch 27. The SPFAKER took the Chair at a few minutes before Four o'Clock.

Mr. AGLIONBY presented a Report from the Um% f mince appointed to consider the petition of the Eafl of liopetoun against the Edinburgh and Glasgow 1.14 . 1,- way Bill. The Committee reported that that 13'* had been intreciaced, the Standing Orders not been complied with. He scarcely understood what IS the proper motion to found upon the Report, but he lieved the proper course to take would be to move Ott be referred to the Standing Orders Committee. Mr. C. HOPE moved as an amendment, that it b. , ferred to the Committee on the Edinburgh and Gca,s. t ._,:, Railway Bill. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL thought the mann': pointed out by his Hon. and Learned Friend, who brought up the report, was the useal and proper one. Sir G. CLERK did not see any necessity fo* e t g coarse sugitsted by the Hon. and Learned Member Oar Cockerinoufh ; the Committee appointed bad made their , 4 repoit to the House, and that was all that was reqUtred. Mr. AGLIONBY said the report of the Committee d 1 which he had the honour to be Chairman, had been unatit mously agreed to, and he thought it but justice to the-per.. • moters of the Bill to move that it be referred to the biternO, ing Orders Committee. He must say that the powers tk , - , Committee had not been defined with sufficient accerrac , .._ and the motion he had subffiltted was on e which _4 suggested itself as being the fairest course to adopt unriew*: the circumstances. Mr. G RE ENE said.the course uniformly adopted by In House in similar cases was to refer the Bill to the Stan Orders Committee. The Hon. Member was thron.gboca . . almost entirely inaudible, but we gathered that he :was of opinion that there had been no ground made out departing in this case from the ordinary practice. Mr. L ABO UCH ERE expressed his satisfaetteta tlirt the House had lately had the benefit of the Speaker's , opinion on this point, and had conformed to it. Either eoric .• now before the House it was competent for them to yrursoc, but he was inclined to think that the petitioners ought-te have the chance of going before the Standing Ctrs Committee. Mr. ESTCOURT said he thought the petitioutys ought not to have that chance, for that they bad stsxmery committed a great breach of propriety towards the Ifeeke,. Sir G. GREY said he quite agreed as to the necessity of shutting the door as strictly as possible against featvis on the Standing Orders; but in this case he thout the question was whether the distinction between difree,Ent classes of bills was so clear that it was impossible could fall into error. Mr. FRE SHFIELD said that upon the ground of the case being exactly similar to that of the Wash, which Arc House had decided the other day, they ought to recrlite that the Bill should be withdrawn. Mr. LABOUCHE RE considered, if it was shown 11 , 4 the mistake had arisen from inadvertence, that !vas a ground for relaxing the rule of the House. Sir ROBERT PEEL thought that inadvertence oil the part of Solicitors, ought not to be a ground for **tax- 1 ing the rules of the House, for the moment that stash a course was adopted, all security that parties applyirt• far Railway Bills, were acting bona fide, would be put ass end to. His own opinion was, that the rules of the Ho ne i.- should be enforced as strictly a s p oss ibl e ; if, howe'Ver, the Speaker thought that this was a subject on which he should give an opinion, he, for one, should be happy to , hear it. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL, in supportis* the motion of the lion. Member.for Cockermoutii, be-g,geti lo be understood as not wishinig to decide the matte.; ht.; • merely desiring that it should be inquired into. Lord GRANVILLE SOMERSET thought that tte present case was perfectly analogous to the Wash case, and he th oug h t t h e same process should be epplied to it , and that th e Bill s h ould be withdrawn, and a new -Sill' . introduced. Sir G. GREY thought the cases were not analog - eV, 1 inasmuch as in the Nash case the House had not bean- -, called upen to come to any decision, the Bill having Won withdrawn by its promoters. Lord SANDON thought it would be better to refer di' , present Bill to the Standing Orders Committee ; as it would then undergo precisely the same investigation the: a new Bill would undergo if the present Bill were with drawn and a new Bill brought in. - The SPEAKER said that he had been applied Ni.„ and two questions had been put to him which tali would endeavour to answer. (Cheers.) The gist question was, whether he thought that he ought to to le g . i o v e e on oipnion on the question, or whether he ought tiis entirely to the decision of the House? . own cpinhit l 4 e kne s w im t i b la e r, fer it tn w er as pr h a i e s ta d c t e ity e t f o t il he on ti on.

It that Bill had not been withdrawn, but had been, a parallel case, but as there was no r,,e referred to the Committee on Petitions it w.trald . enn he thought it best to offer no opinionti . point, en 1,. subject b himself, but to leave it to the House to exercise its discretion. Strangers were then ordered to withdraw. On a division the numbers were— For the Motion 87 For the Amendment 136 Majority 49 CANADA.
