would be asked to-night: it was not on the paper and he
was not prepared with an answer. Ile would Make in-
quiry of his noble friend the Foreign Secretary, sad would
answer the hon. and learned gentleman on a future day if
be would repeat the question.
Mr. ANSTE Y would put the question again on Thunday.
TENANT RiouT.

Mr. 8. CRAWFORD then tae, pursuant to notice, to
mote for leave to introduce a bill to provide for the better
securing end regulating the custom of tenant right, as prep-
: tised in the province of Ulster, and to secure compensation
to improving tenants who may not make claim under the said
cotton, and as limit the power of eviction in certain cans. '
The hon. member said that this was a subject which had
created much interest and excitement in Ireland. Many
public meetings had been held, and the draft of his bill had
been submitted to the people at most of them, and he was
in a condition to state that it had met with general ap-
proval. It was called a tenant right bill, but it eqsally
provided for the rights of the landlord, which were any-
thing but secure in many parts of Ireland at the pre-
sent moment. (Hear, hear.) The objects of the pre-
sent bill were two. First, to give security by law
foe the tenant right of Ulster ; and secondly, to give com-
pensation for improvements in districts where that tenant
right did not eaist. (So we understood the hon. member,
who was often inaudible.) '1 he government bill of last '1
session provided that no compensation should be given, ex- '
eept the landlord had previously consented to the improve-
ments,
and that provision had rendered the bill valueless.
He proposed by this bill that when tenants were removed,
improvements should be fairly valued, and that full compen-
sation should be given fur these improvements. Hisobjeet was
to give effect to a proposition of Lord Stanley's, in 1848, the
aim of which was, that the tenant might be able to demand
fall compensation for improvement. 112 e preamble of the hill
stated the absence of improvements by the landlord in Ire-
land, the necessity of tenant right, and the prevailing ism-
' surety of both landlord and tenant arising out of the pre-
sent
state of the law. The main principles of the remainder
were security to tenant right where it existed or was eus-
ternary, rid full compensation to the tenants fur improve-
ments when that right dal not exist. He proposed that
the amount of compensation should be settled by arbitrator
appoiated by beth parties. After one or two further obser-
maim to M. member concluded by again reading the
tamed Ids neatioa, and asking for leave to bring in the
bill.

Sir O. ORZY stated that there was no intention oa the
part of the government to offer any obstruction to the in-
trodoction of the bill, but if, as he believed, it was of the
same nature as those bills on the subject which had been so
often introduced 'by the hon. gentleman and rejected by
large majorities of the house, he could not hold out any
hope et is prima* being adopted on the second
reading. The bseemrshie gentleman had now, as on
how matriana, urged that tenants should be allowed

who had put forward the rights of the tenants most loudly
in Ireland, and went through the several propositions
which they had made. It was quite deer to hha —and, in-
