SUNDAY LABOUR IN THE POST-OFFICE.
Lord ASHLEY, in moving "an address to the crown,
praying her Majesty to take sack measures as shall stop
throughout the United Kingdom the collection and delivery
of letters, and also the transmission of mails on the Lord's-
day," said that in bringing forward the question which
be had to propose he had no other view or object than to
wry out the wishes that had been manifested by the whole
of their constituents. No subject had excited deeper tate
rest than this bad throughout the country, which was
fully evinced by the number of deputations and petitions
which had been got rip on the matter. This feeling we. not
unfilled to any one elms or proles& n ; it was not confined
to an 7 one station, to any one order or rank in society ; it
prevailed teem the very highest to the very lowest.
it was to be found amongst artisans, labourers, trades-
men, bankers, merchants and capitalists of all descriptions.
This feeling was not confined to one form of theological or
political opinion, but prevailed equally is the small agricul-
tural es is the large manufacturing districts. But the ques-
ties might be argued on higher grounds, both in relation
to its religious character and its deep importance to the ems-
munity at large. He hoped that it would be discussed is
the boom in • sober and friendly spirit, suited to the plus in
which the discussion was held, sad the character of the
debate, and he would utter nothing likely to provoke
wrath. He thanked her Majesty's government and the
Poet-office authorities for the desire they had exhibited to
confer a great benefit on thaw isterested, and what they bad
done was a proof that they could do more ; and he hoped
they would now endeavour to perfect their own good
work, and establish their own reputation. He wished
to invite their attention while he endeavoured to show
the depth of feeling which had bun exhibited on this sub
jet and stated the extent to whirls the public had delivered
their opinion oa this vital mater. The report of the peti-
tions up to the present time wee not complete. (Here
some now occurred from members leaving the house.) He
could awn the house that he would conks his observe.
Lions withia a small compass, and he asked them to give
him their attention to tie few words he should utter, not out
of respect for him, but for the hundreds and thousands of
persona who bad petitioned on the subject. The total am-
ber of petitions up to the 24th May was 3,820, mad the num-
ber of signatures 549,638. Many of these (from Boatload
alone 335), weessigned only by the chairman of meetiage.
The number was not yet complete for several hundred had
not yet been presented, and he had a right to con-
clude that the number of signatures would be
700,000, and if there were taken the petitions presented
from public meetings, signed by the chairman, he might
conclude that the whole number of signatures would not
fall short of a million of adults. To look into the details :
Take Liverpool, from whence a petition had come, signed
by 14,000, with a prayer exactly in the terms of this motive.
When the matter was mooted there 200 'unbents and
bankers had forwarded a petition. Ia Manchester the
number of signatures was 31,000, and the petition had been
signed by many of the largest firms and capitalists in that
town. From Aberdeen the number of 4nateres was 16,702,
comprehending essay merchants sod bankers. From Paisley
6,638, from Edinburgh 24,298, acd from Glasgow 21,760.
The petition from Glasgow was well worthy of attention,
on amount of its importance as a commercial city,'
and out of the town council, consisting of 60 members,
41 tad signed the petition. Of the surgeons there had
signed 22, of the procurators 68. There were 11 banks, and
sine of the firms had signed, besides merchants, manufao-
curers, sad other capitalists, amounting to 600. He wished
to impress his noble friend with the fact that when la 1839
the question of the penny post wee before the house, the go-
vernment had yielded to petitions signed by 260,000 persons,
and given up a million of revenge' placing themselves in a
Remittal difficulty. For this object there were 600,000 psti-
diners who asked nothing for themselves, but only a boon
for their humbler fellow-labourers. There was the London

memorial to the First Lord of the Treasury signed by 6,000
bankers sod merchants. It was of immense vales in rela-
tion to the gelation that Loudon should be the model
of all other eitim In it the London heathen there ezpromod
their MUM that there was no more necessity for the transac-
tion of badness In the other past oases el the kingdom
than Is London, that in a metropolis oontainiatt two minims
of people there st.s found to be no secessity for opening the
Poet office on Sundays, while the great increase of postal
communication obviated the amenity elsewhere ; and they
also stated their bast in the moomity of a day rest, and
flee propriety ot the solemn observance ot the Sebbath, and
they preyed the attention of the government to the question.
So far ea the government wee emcerned, they were in Im-
manuel* with the supporters of this motion. The govern-
ment, hoverer, said they hod done enough, sod must stand
still, while thee who thought with him said that they
ought and could go forward. The demand the made wee
simply this—they required that even town a- d thy in the
United Kingdom •hould he ma on the ammo footing as the
asistropoils; they requbed diet the metropolis should
be the model for every tows sad shy in the Veiled
Maness se rewarded the role prohibiting the delivery of
Wien sad the ireamdmios of male on the Lord's-day. It
was not, howsver___,proposed to interfere with the tramosiadon

the Sabbath.

Mr. COWAN osoonded the Betio".
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER oould moors
his utile friend and the house that in opposing
this motion he sympathized with the deep feeling
unnamed by many on this subject, and he should be sorry
if any word of his would lead it to be supposed that he Mi-
tered with the views expressed by his noble Mend of the
value of the Sabbath to all persons, for in that he entirely
concurred. But the motion west a very small way to carry
the object into execution ; and if his noble friend was really
of opinion that no work should be dons in the Pest-sties
the Sabbath, he should have proposed a different resolution.
The noble lord fell into an erraordinary error when he
stated that the Post-ohm was the only public department
in which Sunday labour was required._ Wont would his
noble Maud say to the polio, and to the noise, in which
departments the officers nessemrily laboured as faithfully
and u zealously on the Sunday as on any other day 1 He
mentioned these because they came immediately under his
own department, but his noble friend mast be aware that
there were many other claws of servants, private and public,
from whom his noble Mud could not for one moment sup-
pose that he could take away the harden of Sunday labour.
That that burden should be reduced to a minimum, no one
was move desirous than himself. Indeed, his noble friend
had borne testimony that governats.t had not been
neglectful in this matter, but that they had, with-
in the lest two years, caused the reduction of
Sunday labour to en extent never contemplated before. He
confeestd he was grateful to his noble friend for having borne
that testimony, for he could not conceal from himself or
from the house the fact that daring the last six months the
government bed been open to the gnomon mistakes as to
what they had been doing for the last two years. (Hear.)
During the last two years the gentlemen at the head of the
post office department had been most unremitting in their
endeavours to reduce Sunday labour, and yet thee" efforts
had been taken up in the mantry as having an opposite
direction. Though be was far from wishing to underrate
the feeling that existed in the minds of many on this subject,
yet his noble friend could not deny that the most
extraordinary mistakes won made, and charges were
made against the government not only which they
did not demon, but the very reverse of what
they were doing. He would state genorady the effect
oinks measure government had adopted. The effect bad
been to relieve from Sunday labour upwards of 8,000 per-
sons in the United Kingdom, so as to enable them to attend
divine worship. (Hear, hear.) The menus which excited
so muck feeling throughout the country woe the temporary
employment of about 23 clerks in London for a few months ;
27 clerks had been employed nakterniptedly without obser-
vation in the London poet-office for years, and it was pro-
posed to employ 25 clerks additional for a temporary mirte.
That was part and parcel of a asearnre by which in England
upwards of 6,000 puma were relieved, and on its being ex-
tended to Soothed mid Ireland upwards of 2,000 persons
more were relieved. But what had ham Wanly the com-
pletion of the imam ? The mania was habitually to em-
ploy 27 persons la the London pod-easeas alloaday morn-
ing, and 96 pusses additional wen implored's' a few months

single exception of thens.who .attended to tie receipt and
delivery assails, owing to the arrival of trains and convey-
anal a by whisk mans were brought, no perms was debarred
the opportunity of attending public worship on Sundays.
This was the result of the measure that government
had corned into execution within the last two yearn, the
greater part lof it within Ili but six mottle, and
daring that time they had been attacked ea having
wantonly desecrated the Sabbath. He appealed to the house
whether these attacks had been just. He gortainly had felt
very strongly the exceeding injustice of the Wadi that had
been made upon them by persona who generally would not
give themselves the trouble of ascortainiag what the hots
were. And though he accepted scat gladly the testimony
of the noble lord as to what they had dose, he hoped the
house would excuse him from stating what the facts were,
and would not be led away by the supposition that they had
been unmindful in any degree to pre t labour in the Post-
oleos on a Sunday ; and he hoped they would take that as a
pledge that they were willing, as far as practicable, to carry
further the redactions of Bugg labour. He was perfectly
willing that an inquiry should be made as to how far it was
possible to prevent Sunday labour in the Post-offlos. Now
the proposal of his noble friend was that then shoald
no oollosdon of letters on the Sunday in the post-offices in
the country ; that was, that the pat-office messengers
should not be sent round to collect the letters, but that
everybody was to be at liberty to put them in the pat-office
on that day. Sn far as the poet-off es was coscerned that
was a very easy operation. Nothing in the world was en
easy, so far is the poet-aim was concerned, as to close the
post-aloe on Sunday in the country the same as is London.
It was a question for the public to determine ; and is point
of fact, wberever the public had in any district expressed its
wish that then should be no delivery of letters' and no col-
lection of lettors on the Sunday, they bad conformed
with that wish. If the country was prepared to
' put up with the inconvenience and delay of trans-
mitting laden the government was willing. Bat
beliertug, as he' did, that if that system were carried
into effect, it would canoe great ineortvenience and
hardship, espectal:y to the rioter dames, and believing as
he did that he faithiully represented the great majority of
the people in this country is saying that this ought not to be
carried out, he must oppose this erotica. He believed that the
evil of discontinuing the present practice would
be greater than the advantage. In whatever way the
government could diminish Sunday labour, they were
wil-
ling to diminish it, bat they did not believe it would be to
the advantage of the people to prohibit the eollectlon and
delivery of letters ia the country on the Sunday.
Colossi THOMPSON said that Lord Ashley had abstained
hoot all theological argument in support of his motion,
except is the ono amertios that all Christiana were agreed
upon Ms duty of y__ohurving the Sunday. This
respond's he disputed. The Jadelmi cheerful°, of &IL,

ENGLISH AND IRISH UNIVERSITIES.
On the artier of the day being read for the restroption of
the stained debate (Med April) on this sables;

Mr. GLADSTONE said that he had ghee notice in
•
the early part of the day of his intention to move the post.
ponement of the adjourned debate, but he thought that
ender the circumstances of the present day, sod considering
the expectations which would be entertained, it would not
be an unreasmable request that they should postpone the
debate for to-night, Every riumber for the university was
absent, the hon. member for Taniworth was anent, betides
may lawyers, who considered that this question involved
eocstitutlonal topics of the utmost lesportame. Another
question Ind been raised, that this dissuasion should drop
altogether, but he had a dißculty in persuading himself
there was any gentleman conversant with the history
of the universities who could think that the question
of inquiry into the state of the universities by Royal con-
mission was of such alight importance that it was not worthy
of discussion. The noble lord had admitted in the fairest
manner that it was • question that deserved discussion. RI
views were to raise the question whether the proceeding
proposed by the noble lord was not strictly an unoonstitu-
tiosal proceeding. He should argue that it was an uncon-
stitutional mode of proceeding which the noble lord meant
to take, and U he thought that there was cause.enough for •
measure so serious as the institution of an inquiry by publik,
authority into the state of the universities, the only course he
could with propriety take,_ would be to propose the appointment
of a commission by act of parliament. There was no inten-
tion of evading or escaping the question by deity, that was
far front their intention, their character would be degraded
by any such proceeding, and the sooner the discussion came
on the better for the universities. Removed that the debate
be adjourned till Monday next.
The SPZAKIIII having put the question,
Lord J. RUSSELL said that he had no objection to the
adjournment till Monday next, because the hon. member
had stated that the absence of th members for the universi-
ties wee caused by the expectation that it would not come
on. lie soled not give a day appropriated for govern-
ment business for the resumption of this debate. Re thought
the proper course for the hon. gentleman to pursue would be
to take one of the days appropriated to notiees or appoint
the debate for some day when the orders of the day ot indi-
vidual members were discussed.
Mr. GLADSTONE—Do yen postpone the commission ?
_ _

. .
Lord J. RUSSELL did not promise to postpone the com-
mission. As at present advised he was inclined not to do eo.
He agreed to the adjournment of the debate till Monday
nest.

public.
ELECTIONS (IRELAND) BILL.
The debate ea the third readiag of the above bill was re-
sumed.
In answer to es lion.Martuns, _ .

Mr. HUME regretted the abs;nee of the hon. member
who had proposed to engraft t►e ballot on this measure. If
any country in the world required the protection of the ballot
it was Ireland, where, between the landlord on the one side
and the priest on the other, the elector was constantly per
pissed and coerced In the nereise of his franehise. (Hear,
hear.) He did not, however, feel himself Notified in pro-
any amendment in the theme of the hon. member

After s short distention respecting some verbal amend-
ments proposed by Bir L. O'Bitraw, which was wholly un-
intelligible in the gallery, the bill was read a third time and
pissed.
