On the report of a eseredtre which sat in the pre •

beenmindionedy by tb• committee. It appeared

Thirdly, wham les gave the fullest power to the objector to

the number of objections bon so proportion to the number
of notices which had been served. In two parishes alone no
fewer than 710 notices of objection had been served, and one
individual served so Buoy as 1,500 or 2,000. He believed
the same was the eau in Staffordshire, Cheshire, and Not-
tinghamshire. With respect to the system of making voters,
no less than 60 persons had claimed to vote for the West
Riding of Yorkshire, out of one set of premises, called
Bright's Buiklinr, in Barnsley. (Laughter.) In another
instance several persona claimed out of a place called Cobden-
street. (Laughter.) He had substantiated every allegation
he made as regarded North Warwickshire. With regard to
the bill before the hour he wr glad that ao opposition was
offered to the second reading.
Mr. V. SMITH said that in several respects it we, true

Corn-Law League in North Stallailehire, whine they made
their objections by wholuale ; but he deprecated the exhibi-
tion of party feelings in reference to • bill ef this kind.
(Hear, bear). He was pled that the house was unanimous
in 'aunties to the second reading of a bill, the object of
which was to do away with wholesale frivolous' and vexatious
objections.
Mr. G. HEATHCOTB thought that a bill of this kind
was wanted, but he hoped that sufficient time would be
given to consider the venous clauses of it. He thought that
a person who objected, and substantiated his objection,
should be entitled to some costa; otherwise no person would
take the trouble of objecting at aIL With respect to the
Anti-Corn-LawLouse, he would only observe, that in his
runty they made 300 or 400 objections, but withdraw the.

HOSIERY MANUFACTURE BILL.

After giving a short historical assent of the stocking trade
the hon. member entered Late we dotes to show that at

Mr. W. ELLIS mid eat snub full evidence had already
