IMPEIUAL PABLIAAUCNT.

Ere the House. of Coneuovs yesterday, on the
notion for going into committee on the Established
Church (Ireland) Bill,
Mr. S. Avror,4 said the object of the resolu-
tions passed on the subject of the Irish church
was to establish religious equality in Ireland, and
as the hilt penvidett that no new appointments in
the church should e:infer a vested interest, it was
but jllO that the same principle should be applied
to Mayntioth. Ile therefore inured that it be an
instructiiiii to the committee to insert a provision
in the bill that the tenure of every office connected
with the College of Mayntioth be subject
to the like conilitiuns with those to which
official tenures connected with the established
church in Ireland will be subject, and that no pay-
ment he made under the Maynooth College Act
to any student admitted after the passing of Ail
act.
Colonel C. N revvr moved an amendment de-
claring that every person who shall be appointed to
any othiec in the College of Maynonth shall after
the passing of the act hold his office subject to
the pleasure of parliament.
Mr. th.sos.rosti: uteri:chi the resolution. It went
ton far, Mau:math as it crippled the operations of
Maynouth and applying to it a premeds= which
they did not apply to the established church.
Then the resolutien was defective, inasmuch as it
took nn notire of Regime% DINIIIIII. lie quote
agreed that if this bill became law, no professor or
student hereafter app ainted es admitted should
acquire a vested interne ; but a resolution of this
kind was unnecessary. The best way would bo for
the government, when the hill heiatine law, to con-
vey le the parties we whom an appeintment was
conferred a distinct warning that they acquired
no vested interest.
On a division the a-solution was negatived by
IfLi to 109. _

Colonel G. Har.avr said, after this expression
of the opinion of the house he would withdraw Isis
amendment.
This propcnition;,, however, was received with
lend cries of \o."
Mr. Ut.stisress remarked that this was is ease
Of sonic importance as regarded parliamentary
procedure. Last year there was a similar case. It
was euntemulated to pass a hill taking away the
salaries of the West India Wallops, and the govern-
ment said no new appointment would he made to
create a vested iriterest. He appealed to the
govern:nu:lt whotlicr the same principle should not
be observed in this came. . . . .

Mr. G. HARDY said it *untied inconvenient to
bring into a hill nu the e3taNished church matter*
which did not in:long to the bill. At thew.►mc
time the amendment of Orlonel Xug nt %%as in
amformity with the rimointions.

Sir (;. I;(iwyer and Mr (7.gan oppusol the
motion; but it was Fumed mitt& lin alliunilineut
move,' by Sir V. (:rey to include tho recipieuts of
the Regiuni Douala.

•
Mr. :Ct.:WM:I:AiI; therCuj n moved that the bill
bo read a second time that day six months, sup-
porting his motion on no popery grounds.
s‘as followed hy Colonel S. Knox, Captain
Arehdall, Mr. Lefroy, and Sir J. Stronge, all of
whom siipported the amendment, but eventually it
was withdrawn.

......
The Leine then went into committee on the bill,
and the various clauses were agreed to, with the
addition of a claim; inovoil by colonel Creville-
Nugent to carry out his instruction.
The Cis A Nl' etvin of the Eximitorza moved the
second reading of the Thames Embankment and
Me.tropolis Improvement (Loans) Act Amendment
Bill, the objectof which is ti enable the Board of
Works to raise 1,840,0061. on a government
guarantee, the government taking as security the
coal and win:i desks after the period up to which
they are alreuty applied, the spare land on the aide
Of the new street to the Mansion-house, and the
metropolitan rates.
Mr. CoaiH EN supported the bill, but complained
that proper estimates bad nut been kid before the
house in the firet instance.

Mr. TITE defeuded the Metropolitan Board of
Works.

Mr. AYKTOW, on the other hand, strongly com-
plained of the proceedings of the board, and pro-
tested against the injustice of throwing on the
present generation such heavy works as the
Thames euibaniunent.

Colonel novo was defending the Board of Works,
when.the house was (*Noted out at twenty minutes
to ten o'clock.

THE fRISKI CHURCH QUESTION AT NEWCASTLE.
—A scene was witnessed in the Townshell on Th
night happily of rase occurrence in Newnan. With
gnat flourish of trumpet" the opponent" of the disesta•
hlishinent and diAenolowsurnt of the Irish church bad
anuoutmed their intention of enlightening the public mind
of the diatiitt on the subjest, awl ittheu Lord Ravens.
worth end Lie coadjutors stepped on to the platform the
large ball was densely crowded. Rumour bad asserted
that the meeting would be peeked by the opponents of
disestablishitieut. but the result proved that the anti.
stmt.: church party were present in good round num.
here. Lrj I:ereneworth succeeded ining the ear
of the audience, but on the R r ev. Rutherford
essaying to ask a pertinent question an attempt was
made to put Lieu down. The result was a general
disturbance; and then, and not till then, was it tees how
eqoalty matched, in point of uumben, were the friends
• tg.potteptit• of " dieestablishment." Had the promoters
of the ilicrtin; allowed their opponents anything like fair
play, all tutih-r. Lave gone off quietly, and "the sense of
the meeting" might have been taken on the important
quettien at issue. As it was, the proceedings only proved
how Ty Pisread is the dissstisfsetiou at the mascot po-
sition of Irish church, and how futile are attempts to
slay Ow "'wand progren of religious hberty.—/Grfkrrn
