The sommittos then divided : .

or the proviso 66
Against lO6-61
After sow conversation between Mr. Wax.roxs and Mr.
Busour,
The clause we speed to.
The 22nd clause (empowering her Majesty, by order in
council, to cause militia to be exercised out of their own
counties, and to extend or reduce the period of service) was
*greed to without diseataion.
The 23rd clause (empowering ;lieutenants to appoint
places for exercise), having, after some conversation, been
agreed to,
Clause 21 was agreed to without remark.
Oa clause 25, which
repeals the power given in a former
act, to call out the militia in case of insurrection,
Sir H. VERNEY said be disapproved of the clause. The
last attempt at invasion was preceded by insurrection, and if
en invasion were again attempted there was little doubt
there would be another insurrection.
Mr. 0. GORE had given notice to omit this clause. He
could not understand on what principle it bad been in-
serted.___

—The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said this
elegise was inserted because the principle of the bill was,
that it was a strictly defensive measure against foreign sg
greesion, but as the hon. gentleman opposite and other
gentlemen seemed to disapprove of it, he proposed that
they should leave it for further consideration.
After some diseuesiou,
Mr. M. GIBSON thought it would be best to take the
SOLO of the house upon the question ; and he could assure
the government that they should; have his support for
the proposition which they bed originally made. The
Chancellor of the Exchequer had obtained the votes of
away hon. gentlemen on the ground that there was this
clause in the bill; and if he now withdrew it, be would
place it in the eategory of the proposal to give votes to the
militiamen, so ea to render it a popular measure. If he now
withdrew the clause, it would be apparent that he had at-
tempted to pass it muter improper pretexts, a measure that
would not have stood its ground if its full scope had been
stated in the first instance. (Hear.)
Sir J. TYRELL observed that if the militia were so well
adapted to put down rebellion, the Manchester gentlemen
ought to be the first to rejoice at the proposal to omit the
clause ; for wise there was any fear of a real rebellion,
the importunities from Manchester to the Home•oilice were
beyond all consideration—((" hear," and laughter)—end yet
the boa. gentleman (Sir J.Walmsley) talked about the propo-
sition of the hon. member detracting from the merits of the
bill l So far from taking the sense of the house, they would
only take its nonsense. (Loud laughter.)
Sir J. WALMSLEY protested against the hon. baronet's
putting words into his mouth which he had not used.
Sir J. TYRELL—I rise to order. (Cries of "Order,'
and " Explain.") Perhaps the hon. gentleman would state
what were the words. (Loud laughter.)
Sir J. WAI.MSLEY—The hon. gentleman seemed to
suppose that I had velum' of the merits of the MU. I be-
lieve that it bee nosy demerits, but I do not believe that it
has any merits whatever.
Mr. HEY WORTH said that the use of the armies on the
continent was to pat down the liberties of the people ; and
there would be • natural impression that the proposed force
would be egeoltrullbraski purpose in England.
Mr. G. TROXPSON pit it to her Majesty's govern-
ment, whether it would mot be • breach of faith,
and a risperture from whet had been said at the
introdiestion of the bill, if the government did
not liesaly resist the withdrawal of the clause
Sir F. T. BARING mid be should vote for the postpone-
ment of the clause, in the hope that the result of the go-
vernment's ecosideration would he to withdraw it. He
objected th it, became he believed nothing was more likely
to create the danger of an invasion than some domestic con-
vulsion, and because the bill as it stood would leave the
country weaker than it was under the old law. (Hear.)
The committee then divided

For the relponesarni dike clause 2OO

The clause wm seoordingly postponed.
Classes 28 and 27 were agreed to without romarl:.
On clause 28, which extends the provisions of 42 Geo.
111., cap. 90 as amended, to this act,
Kr. BRIGHT said the clause involved very important
considerations, and would require much discussion. It
would be better for the committee not to proceed further
till they heard the conclusion of the government as to the
clause that had been postponed, whisk, if omitted, would
entirely alter tie character of the WI This clause 28 in-
volved all the clauses of the act of Gm. 3, nearly 160 in
number, and many of which were inetenetent with the
classes in this bill. He appealed to the Mosse-fleactory
whether there had been any attempt on that AM saltirly
to delay the pragrees of the bill. /Host dike ammtions
had come from friends and not from opponoste of the ma-
sure.
The CHANCELLOR of the IiCHEQUZZ did not

In clause 31 a similar alteration was made with re-
ference to the miners of Devon and Cornwall who might
volunteer.
The remaining clause was then agreed to.
In answer to Mr. Hamar,
Mr. WALPOLE said that the bill would be reprinted.
The CHAIRMAN then reported progress, and obtained
leave to sit again to-morrow.
The house then resumed.

On t /notion that the debate be adjourned to the 16th
of
luxe, which se amendment wu moved that it be ad-
jammed to Wedanday next,
Mr. REYNOLDS roes to object to the penposemeent tin
the 16th of June. The hon. gendenes leeninesd this
subject in a speech—if be could sell k enewhlmlt we full
of unadulterated end malignant blielay. The manner ma

The right bon. gentleman said that the Menem mtbolio

missions, and that nothing had been dielled to the Mere&

was thee having failed in raising a bey in Eaglead against
the hod of the people, the party opposite raised that of no
popery, sad the College of Maynooth. (The cries of
" Question " became or load and general as almost to
drown the yoke of the hon. member.) The bon. member
having thanked the house, amid much laughter, for the
patience with which they had heard him, concluded by
seisonding the amendment.
Mr. M. J. O'CONNELL thought that the matter should
at once be brought to a fair and definite conclusion. It was
a mere fares to postpone the question to the 16th June.
The O'OOIIMAN MAHON thought it essential that the
question raised by Mr. Spooner should be decided,
Ho took the oppocturaty of denying altogether that such
abominable doctrines were taught in Roman catholic
collect* as had been asserted by that hon. gentleman. De
wished the question to be fully debated, and a decision
come to upon it, if not on Wednesday neat, at as early a
day afterwards as pmeible.
Mr. 11. HERDEET asked what object could be gained
by keeping this order on the paper? If on the 16th of
Juno the committee were granted, no practical enquiry
could take place in the present session.
Mr. NEWI)EOATE said the ground for keeping the
order on the paper was to ascertain whether the house was
prepared to agree. with his hon. colleague that there was a
necessity for inquiry into the system pursued at Maynooth,
and to obtain a satisfactory decision on that guiation, he, on
the part of his hon. friend, would see that the discussion should
not be resumed on a day when there would be a difficulty
in making a house, or at all events a very thin attendance.
lie felt bound therefore to adhere to the 16th June.
Mr. GLAI)STONE had beard no reason stated for firing
the debate on the 16th June. lle hoped that under no cir-
cumstances would Outhouse apes to defer the question to that
date—and if the house acceded to that prouosition it would
make itself ridiculous, and the hon. gentleman who made
the motion would raise a doubt in the country as to the
objects he had in view in bringing it forward.
After a few words horn Col. GILPIN and Mr. KEOGH,

Mr. WALPOLE thought it advisable that some practical
conclusion should be come to on the question which the
hon. member for Warwickshire had brought under the
notice of the house. Such a conclusion would not, how-
ever, be arrived at by fixing the debate for the 26th, or for
Wednesday next. The course, then, for the hon. member
to pursue was either to discharge the order at once or take
• day or two to wasn't his hon. colleague as to the day on
which tho debate should be brought on. (No, no.) For
his own part he had no objection to the arrangement sug-
gested—to take a morning sitting for the purpose. (Hear,
hear.) He was naturally anxious that the discussion should
be continued and concluded after the allusions that had been
made by the opponents of the motion to the intentions of
the government. (Hear, hear.) Ile might now be perhaps
allowed to remark, that the speech he made when the ques
tion was last under discussion bad been much misunder,
stood, and he believed no one who heard it could have put
the construction upon it which it had since been made to
bear. (Hear, hear.) The construction which his right hon.
friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer gave to it at • later
period of the debate, wisi, he thought, the only one which
could fairly attach to that speech—at all events, it was the
only one he (Mr. Walpole) intended. (Hear, hear.)
Sir B. BALL hoped the amendment would be with-
drawn, and that the offer, which had been made with the
concurrence of the right hon. gentleman the Home Secre-
tary, would be accepted by the hon. member for North
Warwickshire—if not, it would be said, and with reason,
that the other side were going to the country concealing
their policy on the two great questions of protection and
Maynooth. (Hear, hear.) The one to a certain extent
they bad thrown over, and the other, if the hon. mem-
ber for North Warwickshire's proposal, to defer this
debate till the 16th of June was carried, they would
avoid giving any opinion upon. As far, however, as
the oppoeiuon could prevent such postponement they
were determined to do so. (Hear.) They had been
told by the Chancellor of the Exchequer that the govern-
ment hail no intention of withdrawing the Maynooth
grant, yet they knew that at this moment the walls of
Liverpool were placarded with broadsides on behalf of the
government candidate declaring that. if the result of the
election were to retain the present ministry in office, that
endowment wculd be abrogated. Under these circum-
stances it was essential that their intentions should be
lainly and honestly announced before the dissolution.
(Hear,
hear.)
Sir J. TYRELL hoped his hon. friend would fix
Tuesday next, in accordance with the suggestion made on
the other aide. . .

—)dr. OOULD thought it important that the question
should be brought to a decision.
Mr. FORBES moved that the debate be adjourned till
Tuesday next at 12 o'clock. (Rear, hear.)
Mr. ANSTEY asked if it was intended to fix Tuesday
or Saturday next, or any other early day, to go on with the
debate at 12 o'clock, and proceed with it de die in diem if
necessary till it was brought to a conclusion ? In that case
he would withdraw his amendment.
Mr. NEWDEGATE was perfectly prepared to' adopt
the motion of his hon. friend (Mr. Forbes), and fix the
debate for Tuesday, at 12 o'clock.
The motion fur Tuesday at 12 was then agreed to.
METROPOLITAN INTERMENTS..

Lord J. MANNERS moved for leave to bring in a bill to
amend the laws concerning the burial of the dead in the
metropolis. At that late hour (half-past one) he would
not enter into any details of the measure, but would merely
say that it would provide, first, for the closing of the
burial grounds within the metropolis, and secondly, to
erect burial grounds beyond the metropolitan boundaries
for the reception of the dead.
Mr. WAIiLEY observed, that as far u be could under-
stand it from the few words of explanation the noble
Lord had given, the present measure appeared to be the
same as the one which had been so unsatisfactory in its re-
sults. (Hear, hear.) Ile hoped full information would bo
given as to the nature and provisions of the bill before any
stage in it were taken.
Mr. STANFORD trusted that the bill would be laid on
the table at a time when a full explanation of the objects
and details could be given end discussed. (Hear, hear.)
After a few words from Viscount Ebrinsrton, Lord Sey-
mour, and Mr. J. Bell,
The motion was agreed to, and the bill was brought
ilk and read a first time.
Mr. G. A. HAMILTON moved for leave to bring in a
bill for carrying into execution an agreement for the sale
of property belonging to her Majesty, is right of her crown
and of the Duchy of Lancaster, to the Commissioners of
Inland Revenue, and for enabling such commissioners to
dispose of their present chief office, and other property, in
the City of London. Also a bill to remove doubts as to the
lands and casual revenues of the crown in the colonies and
foreign possessions of her Majesty.
Both motions were agreed to, and the bills brought in
and read a first time.
COLONIAL BISHOPS BILL.

On the motion of Sir J. Pauxoiox thin bill, which had
been brought from the Lords, was rein a drat time ; to be
road a second time on Monday next.
BISHOPRIC OF QUEBEC BILL.

On the motion of Sir J. PAILINGTON. this bill, which had
also come down from the Lords, was read a first time, and
ordered to he read a second time on Monday next.
The house then adjourned at a quarter to two o'clock.

MADAME Sat:mt.—A biographical notice in the
Petrie on Madame Saqui, who, at the size of 76 years, is
now dancing on the tight rope at the Hippodrome, states
some curious facts to account (or her be:tag compelled at so
advanced a period of life to continue a fatiguing and hazard-
ous performance. It appears that Madame Saqui bad ac-
quired a handsome fortune many years ago, and had resolved
to retire, when her brother, who was the manager of the
Rouen theatre, was on the point of becoming bankrupt with
debts amounting to 600,000 f. ; and, to save his credit,
Madame haqui paid the whole amount, and reduced herself
to poverty. Since that time she has never been enabled to
accumulate sufficient wealth to retire, and latterly, accord-
ing to the l'atrie, she met with a terrible misfortune. She
was returning from Spain with about 30,000 E, the fruit of
'great exertions, when she was stopped by banditti and
robbed of the whole of her money. In her youth she was
patronised by the Emperor Napoleon, who frequently made
her presents ; and on one occasion, when much in want of
money to meet some engagements, she applied to the empe-
ror for the large sum of 10,000 E, and he sent it to her im-
mediately.
BREWER'S-COURT RAGGED SCROOLS.—Last even-
ing the s n Luta general meeting of the friends and supporters
of the above schools was held at Freemasons'-hall, Great
Queen street, the Right Hon the Earl of Shaftesbury in
the choir. His lordship, in opening the proceedings, mid
that in consequence of the inadequate snpoort received by
the committee, numbers of children had been turned away
from the reboot. It had been said that this arose from their
want of knowledge of such a good work being carried on,
but he was very much afraid that that WWI not the ease, as
eons could be.p seeing the numbers of wretched children
daily running about the streets. He felt that the wealthy
ought to maintain the schools to the utmost of their power,
The report showed that the average attendance of the day
and evening schools together had been front 150 to 160
children of all ages, and both sexes. Last year there was
a small sum due to the treasurer, which had been paid, and
a below remained in favour of the schools. The report
concluded by stating that a dispensary had been founded in
conjunction with the schools, and urging upon the meeting
the nece4sitv of further contributions to meet the increased
expense. The Rev. 0. T. Driffteld, seconded by the Rev.
J. Smith, moved the adoption of the report, which was car-
ried unanimously. The Revs. A. Thilwell, Dr. Cumming,
and Mr. W. Terry, ofthe Ragged School Union, addressed
the meeting ire support of other resolutions, and the pro-
ceedings cored with a vote of thanks to the noble chairman.
KING'S COLLEGE lioserrat.—The appointment
of assistant-surgeon le the service of the Hon. East India
Company, so liberally placed at the disposal of the com-
mittee of management of this hospital, by W. H. C. Plow-
den, Esq., M.P., has been conferred on Mr. Francis Not-
tidgo Maenarnara, a distinguished pupil and scholar of
King's College.
