the franchise the power of enjoying it, by requiring the can-
didate to convey the elector to the poll, without making to
him any money payment. This had baoome a necessity, un-
less means could have been devised of bringing polling places
to the doors of the voters. This bill was intended to remedy

GOVERNMENT OF INDIA DILL.—THE LORDS'

AMENDMENTS.

The aramadraents ontlieeip7dis; part of the bill were
adopted.
On the Lords' samdsvist to allele 27, N that no such
order shall beast without having been previously cow-
mankated to the Vice-Presideat or other member from time
to time to be selected by the Secretary of State,"
Lord J. RUSSELL doubted whether this amendment
would provide the security intended by the Lords, mad he
17°W:, therefore, that the Maus ahould run ea follows :
I;th order shall be sent without having beenlctonaly
ooramaaloated to a committee counting of the Prod-
dent sad four other members to be from time to time selected
by the Secretary of State, and the opinion of such committee
in respect to such order shall be recorded in writing.'

put and negatived, and the loam divided upon the amend-
ment introduced by the Lards :

Sir J. GRAHAM, in reference to the amendment respect-
ing patronage, meld ha could well understand the whole ci
the patronage of the Indian government, after that
mint wee headlined to her Majesty, being vested In
teitz.., Bat the teems of the cause, es amended by the
vested that patronage in the heads of the Secretary
of State for India in Council. Clause 23 would show what
UN power of the Seentary of Sista in Conseil was. Tie
Secretary of State moved any matter before the council ;
but the council could not contradict him whatever might be
their opinion ; the deaden in all cues numbed with him.
As the clause went up, the patronage was I. the hands of the
Secretary of State it wee true, but with the coseurrenoe of
the majority of the council. The words strut oat were
materiel. He wu in favour of leaving the patronage in the
hands of the Secretary of State, under the control of the
majority of the council, or in the crown, upon the respoosi-
bility lithe whole cabinet. He, considering that this patron-
age was far too large to entrust in the hands of any
ter, that minister not being the chief, moved that the house
do reject the amendment In this clause.
Lord STANLEY could not defend the wording of the
dame as it stood ; he should therefore support the right hon.
gentleman's proposition.
On the amendment to clause 30, which also related to
patronage, and wee to the same effect,
Slr J. GRAHAM moved to disagree with it on the same
groan&
This amendment was also negatived.
