that if they threw out this bill and had a rating suffrage,
they would soon have a rating ramp that would be ac-
companied by household suffrage. (Cheers.)
MACEVOY, as one who was not opposed to reform,
having voted for this bill and the bill of-Lord Derby, had
beard nothing to alter his opinion that a rating franchise
was the best. (Cheers and cries of " Divide.") But the
noble lord in proposing a rating franchise bad done so in
a way which was open to rat objections, and if he would
substitute for the wor in Ins motion those which
appeared in the Irish act, "An uniform valuation of
lands and tenemnta," the objections urged to the
motion would be to a great extent removed. They
would have the effect of making it a real and true
rating suffrage. It was impossible for him to assent to the
noble lord's proposalas it now stood, because in eVerf UMW*
in England there was a different system of rating. ("Hear,
hear,' and " Divide.")
Mr. VILLIERS, as the author of the Union Assessment
Act, which had been often referred to, stated that it had
worked well, and brought a large amount of property
under amassment ; and he contended that the gross esti-
matedrental was as much the subjectof revisionandappeal
as rateable value, and was more to be depended upon than
the latter. He contended that the opposition to the mea-
sure was founded on objection to all reform, and all that
had beer done had but one purpose, that of defeating the
bill and postponing the extension of the suffrage.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER—I need
hardly ensure the committee that I am not here to claim
the privilege of reply, or to range again over a field which
has been guile exhausted, but an obeervation which fell
from the hon. and learned member for Belfast absolutely
calls for some explanation from me. The hon. and learned
member, I am sure unintentionally, but certainly grossly
misstated what had fallen from me, charging me with
having said at the commencement of the debate that I
would offer no interference with the claims of the bill. I
did not state anything that in the slightest degree resembled
such a statement, but as the matter is one of consequence,
and not merely of feeling, I will tell the house what I did
state, and show how the matter stands. The hon. and
learned member was right in stating that the
bill depends upon the house and not upon the government,
but still the government is entitled to have its convictions,
and to follow the course which it thinks is for the honour
and advantage of the country, and to decline to take any
other course. (Hear, hear.) What I endeavoured to do
was to make a separation between the political and the
practical part of the subject. The political
part was the enfranchisement, and the prac-
tical part the rateable value. With respect to the
political part I said that the government would not be
any party to the curtailment of the franchise moderate
as it was in the bill, but with respect to the practical
part, I endeavoured, like my noble friend, to handle it
apart from the political objects of the bilL lam bound
to say, however, after having heard the debate, that I
have failed in doing so. Ido not retract one word of what
I have said as to the purport of my noble friend's
amendment, which I still believe is to limit the
amount of franchise to be given to the people.
The effect of the amendment is to substitute a rateable
value of 71. for an estimated rental of 71. as the qualifica-
tion of the voter. It is in my judgment an amendment
striking a blow at the plan of enfranchisement proposed
by the government, and so viewing it I can enter into no
engagement on the part of the government that we will
accept an adverse vote, or will regard such a vote as other-
wise than incompatible with the progress of the bill.
(Cheers.)
The committee divided—
For the amendment
Against it 304
Majority against the government
There was another of those excited scenes which have
been so frequent during these reform discussions. When
the clerk at the table handed the division paper to Lord
Dunkellin, shouts arose from the opposition which were
repeated for some minutes. After the noble lord had read
the numbers, these were repeated with renewed en-
thusiasm.
Mr. AYRTON said that after the announcement which
had been made by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the
committee had no alternative but to report progress.
The hon. gentleman accordingly made • motion to this
