CHURCH BUILDING ACTS AMENDMENT BILL.
On the motion th it their lordships do go into committee
upon this bill,
The Earl of HAIIROWBY said that as the second fad-
ing had parsed without observation, he wished to state
briefly the Alecto of the bill. These were two in number;
the first being to give facilities for the integration of
small tieing. in populous cities and towns. In the City. of
London. for example, there was an immense accumulation
of churches, forming no doubt a great architectural attrac-
tion to the metropolis, but doing little for its spirituel
welfare. The truth was that the causes which
haul in ancient times caused vast populations to be pent
within walls, had long since ceased, and London was now
fast becoming a city of shops and warehouses. (Hear,
hear.) The question then, was, whether it was not better
that the churches and endowments should follow the pee).
pie ? (Hear, hear.) The present law gave the bishop the
power to order by a faeolty, a church to be pulled down,
and also to unite contiguous benefices; but in the former
ease the process was inconvenient, and in the latter the ne-
ceeeity for the benefices to he contiguous, would interfere
with the end in view. The first eight clauses then proposed
to deal with this part of the subject. The rest of the bill
treated of patronage. Powers would also be given to various
companies to part with their patronage, not for any pecu-
niary advautage, but for the purvose of improving other
livings, and so creating new parishes with efficient means
for the cure of fouls.
The Earl of POWIS said it was hard to criticise any
measure relating to the church that emanated from a noble
lord so well known for his judgment and zeal in such mat-
ters as the noble earl ; but still he thought the measure was
open to grave objections. Really and truly, it was an at-
tempt at church extension by pulling down churches. (Hear.)
The Bishop of LONDON said the bill was the result of
a commission issued by her Majesty to inquire ioto the beat
means of subdividing large parishes, and of making more
effectual provision for poorer benefices. He hoped their
lordships would allow the bill to go into committee.
After a few words from the Msrquis of BATH and the
Earl of al•LICL$Hver, their lordships went into committee
on the bill, and the tire: tire clauses were agreed to.
On clause 6,
The Earl of POWIS moved the omission of the clause.
The chitin gave power to sell the site and the burial-ground
attached to a church. He thought such a power ought
not to be given.
The Bishop of LONDON supported the clause.
The Bishop of SALISBURY agreed with the lipids nod
(Malmesbury) in many of his observations ; but he thmlis
be was pushing his feelings toe degree that was opls
the public interest. It was not possible, in a metropolis
like this, that a church should remain as a ruin, and a
burial-ground as an unoccupied site. He hoped this noble
earl would net continue his opposition.
The Earl of DERBY suggested to the noble lord
that, omitting the metropolis, an ell other towns the
consent of the municipal corporations should be obtained
before the church was pulled down or the burial ground
abolished. The right rev. prelate could have no wish to
exercise an invidious power, and it was clear that his ob-
ject was to be effected in a legitimate way.
Some conversation took plaice on this suggestion, and it
was understood that the Bishop of Landon expressed his
roadie. se to adopt it, but the Earl of Harrowhy objected
to accept an alteration which would miter the principle of
the bill.

The amendment was rejected without a division, and the
clause was agreed to.
The remaining classes were agreed to, and the house re-
eumed.
EXCISE DUTIES ON SPIRITS BILL.
Earl GRANVILLE moved the third reading of this
bill, aid stated its general principles.
Lord MONTEAGLE took the opportunity of stating
that he viewed this bill, in its principle and application,
with great alarm. He approved of this effort at equalising
the duties on spirits in the three countries, but he feared
they were playing nicks with the revenue, and he doubted
the wisdom of reductions in England in order to benefitf re-
bind and Scotland.
The Earl of DERBY was disposed to leave the
matter in the hands of the governm-nt, believing
that like former governments, they would eventu-
ally find it necessary to retrace their step. when they
found, as they certainly would de, the same evil conse-
quences flawing from their measure as had invariably at-
tended all similar experiments in this direction. However
upon them would rat the responsibility of having passed
the measure, and upon them would hereafter devolve
their duty of confessing that they had made
• mistake, for if they remained in office until
this time next year, they would certainly have to ask
their lordships to repeal the present bill (Hear.
Earl ORANVILLE admitted the ability with which the
noble lord near him(LordMonteagle)had stated his opposition
to the bill ; but still it was not necessary for him to detain
their lordships with • lengthened reply. It was enough for
him to state that be had recently been over to Ireland,
where he had the pleasure of mixing freely with the com-
mereial claws, and he had heard no opposition to the
financial measures of the government, so far ae they applied
to them. (Hear.)
The bill wee then read a third time and pealed.
