COMPANIES' WORKMEN'S EDUCATION BILL.
1:1n the bringing up of the report of the amendments
b this bill,
Earl GRAN VILLE proposed to substitute for clause 1 •
Amos by which children of noooonformiste might be ad-
mitted to the schools without being required to use the

amok catechism.
The Archbishop of YORK regretted that • conscience
clause should be allowed to find it. way into this bill, the
object of which was to allow public companies to do what
every private person swarm should and ought to do, namely,
to attend to the educational wants and wellbeing of their
workpeople. (Hem, bear.) A coasoienes clause woo sensa-
Nally applioable where there was only one school, but in
the ease of Crewe, which was essentially • railway town,
there was a large proportion of nonconformists who bad al-
ready a school of tome own. Supposiog some one proposed to
endow • school for church le, only asking io return for
the gift of I,OOOZ. or 2,000!., slink hit of ground to build
the school upon, that coed not be done, because io every
school there most be provision for the education of non-
conformists. It was hard that the church of England
should aloes be inespeble of having • school of its own.
(Hear, hear.) Hs regretted that
hthis question'bees which had
agitated the church of England, sould have hastily
introduced into this bill. lie had presided over a diocese,
and wee now presiding over • diocese in which there was a

were • number of cases of schools which existed
merely by saffeathee, where • single adverse vote would
stop them, bat them were topped, and he d
legged the noble earl to point to • single case of hardship
in jostifieatioe of his clause.
Earl GRANVILLE sad the bill was not confined to rail-
way companies, but included all joint-stock compauica. It
was proposed that • cartels proportion of the shareholders
should have power to grant for educational purposes pert
of the many subeceibed by the whole company. The
minority might be diesseteni, and when this oosepuboty
power was conferred upon the majority it was perfectly fair
that it should be accompanied with the condi-
tion already adopted in the Endowed Schools
Bill, that the minority should sot be men.
palled to give their mow to • school of a perfectly exclusive
character, and at which their children could not be educated.
If be thought the clause one meted to prevent &company from
establishing a school in which religions instruotion should
be given in °epsomite@ with the doctrines of theurch of
England, be certaialy would not support it, hags would
have no such effect.
The Bishop of LONDON hoped that his most rev. lased
would not divide the bones on ths question. This was •
matter in which they might be guided by expediency. The
chum was taken from • bill which bad already received
the inaction of the right rev. bench. (Hear.)
Earl GREY said that there were ether large companies
besides railway companies, such as iron companies, which
would be affected by the bill, and he thought it most desi-
rable that they should be relieved from the technical diffi-
culty which now existed. The practical effect of the rues
sere would be the name whether the clause should be
adopted or not, and he hoped the most rev. prelate would
Dot oppose the amendment, because its rejection might
jeopardise the measure in the other haws.
The Earl of CARNARVON opposed the amendment, and
suggested that the bill should be passed in its original
'hrs. house then divided on the question that the clause

THE CLERICAL SUBSCRIPTION BILL.
On the motion that the home go into committee on this
The Archbishop of DUBLIN rose to move the following
amendment: "That this house dose not deem it expedient,
without the coocorrenze of the convocation of the Irish
provinces of the United Church, to proceed with this bill
so far as it may set aside end supersede the canons of '
these provinces, and that a humble address be presented,
praying that her Majesty would be graciously pleased to
convene the marmite:le of the Irish provinces fur the
purpose of amending those canons which relate to the sub-
seriptioe of the clergy and to the oath spinet simony.
so as to assimilate the laws of the church in England and
Ireland in relation thereto, and so as best to secure the
united action of all the provinces of the church."
Earl GRANVILLE remarked that the question of slim-
mooing the convocations of Armagh end Dublin bad been
carefully considered by the government, and the decision
arrived at war that it was not desirable that they should
meet, lie hoped the moat rev. prelate would not persist
in his amendment.
The Archbishop of YORK said the measure introduced
many important changes which, if carried out, were likely
to produce • most salutary effort,. He should therefore give
it his support, but some of the provisions would require
careful consideration is committee.
The Bishop of EILLALOE was of opinion that, before •
measure of this nature was decided upon, the ay nod of the
whole united church ought to have been summoned also to
consider it.
Lord LYTTELTON also opposed the amendment.
The Bebop of OXFORD thought it of importance that
thebill should be proceeded with, but he bed no objection
to postpone that part of it which related to the Irish
clergy. The canons of the English sod Irish church were
different even oft important points, and no harm would,
therefore, be done by postponing legislation in reference to
the Irish church until another year.
The Bith2p of LONDON consumed In this view of the
matter, ant showed that the Archbishop of Dublin, is
asking for justice is Ireland, claimed • great deal more then
was at present conceded to England.
The Archbishop of DUBLIN said he bad no theirs to
impede legislation upon this subject le reference to Eng-
land, and would, therefore, strike out the first pert of his
motion, retaining simply the motion for an address to the
mows.
Subsequently the whole amendment was withdrawn.
On clause 5,
The Bishop of LLANDAFF gave notice of his intention
en the bringing up of the report to move the omission from
the declaration with regard to the jurisdiction of the Pope
of Rome the words "bath or," so that the words would
run, "No foreign prison, prelate, date or potentate ought
to have," he.
The clause was agreed to, ea were also the remainiog
alarwith verbal amendaseara.
, I:l3ishop of WINCHESTER gave notice that on the
report he should move the insertion of . clause extending
the operation of the bill to the islands of Guernsey, Jersey,
Alderney, Sark, and the Isle of ken.
The schedule was then agreed to, and the bill was ordered
to be reported.

DOCKYARD EXTENSION.
Sir M. PETO said that he bad lido unavoidably absent
on the recent occasion when the question of the extension
of dockyard, wie under discussion. The committee
that bad conducted the inquiry into the subject, and of
whiob he had been a member, ford that the way in which
ths works carried on in the dockyards were oonducted had
not been satisfactory, more especially as to the time
occupied in their completion, and that the works were as a
consequence more costly than they ought to be. He hoped
the government would reconsider the question.
Lord C. PAGET could not hold out the slightest hops
that the government would propne to erect these works
by way of loan. They believed the period of five years
would enable them to construct the works with the greatest
ears.
