Mr. HASSARD opposed the bill, believing that no public
or primes ends would be enteerved by it.

property would be invaded by this bill he should oppose
it; but tiara were two ands of property, that of

The small farms in Ireland were not leas productive than the
rime throw in England. How did it affect the poverty
if country? It appeared that in England every 22a1l
perm was a pauper ; m Scotland every 30th person wee
• pauper; while in Ireland only • 80th per-
son was a pauper. The noble lord (Lord Pal eereber)
laid down that there should be no Wellman le the mutual
relations between man and man, but the case of bland
was altogether estiousl, for those relations were not
mutual but one aided. Believing that this bill would do
good to the tenant, and do no injury to the landlord, he
should support it.
Lord NAAS opposed the bill, believieg that it was doubtful
whether it would secure compensation for the tenant, while
it would invade the rights of the landlord.
Mr. Serjeant DEASY moved the adjournment of the
debate, whith wee agreed to, though not until the house had
been defaced for a division.

Kr. DEASY than 'alma the noble lord if the government
could give ►tm • day for the resumption of the debate.

Kr. DEASY then fixed Wednesday, the 9th of June.
The house sAyearned at twenty minutes after five.
