sive, and did not go directly to the removal of those
evils, of which he wee quite searibtr.

dais to improvement in the administration of her laws.

COURT OF CHANCERY (IRELAND.)
The SOLICITOR GENERAL, la moving for leave to
bring in a bill to simplify and improve the prousethoge in
the High Court of Chancery in Ireland, said
that the bill had been perused by the Lord
Chancellor and the Muter of the Rolls in Ireland, and
both those learned persons bad exposed their general
approval of the objects of the bill. The first object of the bill
was to Mora the ex:sting pleadings of the Court of Cho.-
eery. By the pr..ctiee of that court in Ireland, every bill
contained a great onantity of aupetfieous language , a gnu
camber of interrogatories respecting mitten which were set
in difference between the parties. It was a long time Were
the answer win pat is ; when it was pat in it was along time
before the bill was amended; when the bill was aseitaal it
wag along time before the answer to the amended bill was
pat in, and if lame pony happened to die, there was a bill of
reviver ar.4 supplement, and after all this there was
nothing whatever la difference between the parties,
except some matter which was to be
by the ordinary e 6 one of the court. He pr to srabsti.
pate a short statement of facts, by way of petition.
Mr. F. FRENCH said that if these alterations were as
essential they should also be *shaded to Emilia&
Mr. SADLEIR said his experience led him to believe
that the projected amendments wauld be found most sae-
earful, sod that they wen a measure which every man
would not tall to regard as one of the greatest boons that
could be endured on the indwtry of the country. He had
the utmost confidence in the hon. and learned member's
experiment, and he trusted that it would lead to the most
beneficial resalt.
Mr. P. WOOD had heard the plan of the learned Solicitor-
General with great satisfaction, but regretted that so great a
reform wee to be contacted to Ireland. (Hear, hear.) H•
was sot aware that there was any important diffuse°, be-
tween the 'detentes of the equity courts in the two coun-
tries.

' Mr. HENLEY thought that government would hivo gnat

Kr. IIICULLAGH thought that the exposition given by
the &dicker General of the pox*, gamut to be effeemd by
Um bill, would tend very much to allay feee of distrust
and dissatisfaction with which the public mind had recently
bass filled upon this subject in Ireland.
After a few words from Mr. MULLING'S and Mr. WAir

JUDGMENTS—(IRELAND

leave to bring in a bill to emend the laws eatursingjudg mots
in Ireland. It woad be remembered that in the last session of
pediment he brought is • measure on the gull* of kids

gontained much valuable information. The evils of slte law
respecting judgments in Ireland were of two dereriptioas—
the one as it affected the dm management of land, and the
ether as it affected the pewee of disposing of it. By the
*Sift system, • receiver might be appointed by say mimes

The question having been put.
Mr. NAPI ER admitted the desirableness of saimilatiag
the law of the two countries in regard to the registrations elf
judgments. The remedy proposed as to Lame judgments
wee somewhat startling. At present the judgment steed
against all parties as the security to the melitor, and is In-
ked it was the commonest kind of security ; but it was sew
geopo.ed to alter the law in this motet altogether.. Ao

Mr. BADLEIR conctived Chet the laws of the two
montries should be assimilated as far as possible, ape•

CEYLON.
Mr. HAWES moved the upoiatment of a select coin-
ed**, to ir gates into the grievanoss complained of in Ceylon
beememezion with the administration and government of that
esiony, and to report their opini ea whether any measures
c a be adopted for the redress of any grievances of which
there may be shows just reason to complain ; and also, whe-
ther any 1110111111111 can be adopted for the better administra-
tion and government of that dependency.
Mr. HUE Liked whether it was intended to revive the
committee of last maim on Ceylon and British Guiana ?
Mr. HAWES replied that the inquiry was complete and
that the report was adopted. Teems wu, therefore, no
reason to save that committee, for it hod heard all the
evidence and repotted to the house.
Mr. H. BAILLIE complained of a breach of privilege.
A speech he had made in that house regarding the official
salaries in British Guiana had been contraefisted by the
governor of that colony, who tamed him of falsehood. The
amenities in that speech were based upon documents fur-
nished by the calorie' office, and were hallenged
in that house. Regarding the Ceylon inquiry, the
house would remember that a report was made at the close
of the last session of pezliament, when it would be no
exaggeration to say ttat all the independent members had
left town, and when those only remained whose duty it was,
being the official supporters of the government, to brine to
a close the routine helium of the session. It was
under these peculiar circumstances tbst the noble
lord at the head of the g tvernment thought it
becoming to offer a most unusual insult to the committee
by fink* kis official supporters to give a direct negative to
the report of that committee, after be (Mr. Bailie), as the
chairman of the committee, seeing how matters stood, had
voluntarily offered to withdraw it. (Hear, Lear.) But,
even under those peculiar circumstances, the noble lord
thought it necessary at all events to make a show of fair
dealing, and he stated that if the committee would again
re-assemble, and that if they would name the witnesses that
taiga be necessary to be sent for from C ylon, her Majesty's
government would take ears that those witnesses should be
in attendance wizen parliament met, sod that the committee
should re enter upon the inquiry. In consequence of
that statement of the noble lord, the committee was
induced again to re-assemble, very mush, he (Mr. Bailie)
was Lound to say. against the opinion of his hoe. friend the
member tor Montrose (Mr. Hume), who said that he consi-
dered the committee insulted as no ether c mmittee had been
balms; and therefore he objected to 'heir proceeding any
farther in the bosioets. lie (Mr. &unite) confessed be
thought that the vote on that occasion was a vote of the
official espporten of the government, and not the sense of
the house. Under these circumstances he induced hie bon.
friend to proceed. TII.II committee rveseembled, but they
mold not comply with the request of the noble lord. It wee
impossible to name the witnesses from Ceylon. What were
the facts of the case ? Certain charges of a grave end errious
nature had been msde against the Governor of Ceylon
by parties residing in the island. It wee, therefore,
impossible for the committee to ascertain the
truth or the falsehood of those charges without
calling upon the parties who bed made them to
bring forward their evidence to support them. Under these
circumstances, the committee, it was true, named two wit-
:vines, but they named them at random, as gentlemen
whose names were mentioned in the course of the inquiry;
but they were unable to name the rest of the witnesses, and
therefore they came to the following resolution: "Resolved
—That the chairman be authrrised and requested to com-
municate with her Majesty's Secretary of State as to the
necessary whimsies to be ordered home to give evidence
before the committee to be appointed in the ensuing session."
Now, this resolution was proposed by the hon. member for
Montrose, and, when he proposed it, he explained its ob-
ject. He told the committee that the object was to enable
the chairman to write out to the parties in Cep-
*, and ascertain tram them the names of the
pieties they proposed to send, and then to
ommmonleate their names* the Secretary of State. That
ressistiom was carried sestimotoly. The boa. gentleman
who rupeesated the Ceionial.offies seemed to have no objec-
tion to it sa the seamy, he stated that it was right and
ropier with the Swains; of State—eo that the hoe. mem-
ber for'llontras and himself (Mr. ltaillie) were left under
the imierersios and conviction that the course adopted by
the essindeles had reseivoi the emetics of hr linjeaty's
