to the address of the House on the subject of the
commercial treaty. „
Lord TETNRAM moved a resolution—" That in the
election of memberi 'to serve in Parliament it was
expedient that the votes should be taken by ballot."
,He
Pointed out the_evils of the existing electoral system,
contending that the only remedy lay in= the ballot ; that
mode of voting had year after year obtained increased
favour in the country, and in the other House of Par-
liament. in former times their lordships had enter-
tained this question.. 4 .
The Duke of NEWCASTLE briefly replied, 'urging the
old objections of the un-English ,character of the ballot.
On a division, the resolution was negatived by 39 to 4.
I;7ne bills were advanced a stage, and the House
adjourned at half-past seven.
