/Mid PALMERSTON submitted to the House that, after
a grave and serious discuasion of thin in ortant buts.
tion on a former occasion, it was not desirable to stir it
again. The first part of the proposed risolution was
little more than the echo of a resolut which the
Il•iiise bad already affirmed, and the other part pointed
to a result which Lord Fer ~,,, y had not indicated,
tl rowing upon the Government the respoailiility of
giving it effect. He declined the task, and moved the

the Exchequer, i.e was willing, after calling the pro.
ei citing* of the House of Lords "• gigantic i ~,,,, cation,"

the constitutional question. He did not agree with the
Chancellor of the F:schequer, who had formerly urged
tle. House to "action," nor with Lord Farinoy, whose
remlutiou he thought singularly ill-timed. It wAll a
fciirtli resolution, in addition to the three misemble
Ti solutions, and it wily told them to put what gloss
upon it they liked.
After a few remarks from Yr. CONINGHAII, condem-
nie.ry of the attack upon the Chancellor of the
E..clicquer,
Mr. Ditittamt observed the House hail sufficiently
vindicated its rights and privileges, and lie should Aul-
t:v himself if he concurred in it.
