itli7Eß LEE TRUST BILL.

On the motion of Mr. W. Parratr, this bill, as amended
In the committee, was referred to the examiners of petitions
for private bills, to inquire whether the amendments in.
valve say infraction of the standing orders of the house,
and they have leave to sit forthwith.
PUBLIC BUf.IINESS.
LANDLORD AND TENANT BILL.

Oa the order of the day for the third reading of
this bill,
Mr. PUSHY said that lolking to the einunistanwes of
Inland, and the intense excitement which existed there with
reference to the subject of the bill, he advised Irish gentle-
men to consent that the bill should be applied to th►t
country. The bill could not possibly do any harm, and the
subject was one on which legislation was undoubtedly
needed.

Col. BIBTCIORP protested against this kind of legi4-
tion. He believed the bill would. Rimmed, be anything but
beneficial to the tenantry. He should take the seam of the
house by moving that the bill be read a third time that day
three months.
Sir J. Y. BULLER mad net admit that a bill should be
pissed because there was no harm in it. (Hear, hear.) This
hill, was, in Met, liable to many objections, one of the chief
being that it would lead to endless litigation. There were
great disputes, for sample, with regard to the period
ttquired to obtain from land the benefit of guano and other
manure,.

Mr. PUSEY said the bill was based on the evidence of
many of the best cultivators in the come try. In one county—
which was the pattern county of England—the system to
whiai It was proposed to give the sanction of law was already
in existence, and there it had produced none of the evils
which were supposed to attach to It.
Mr. CHRIS LOPHER could assure the hon. member (Mr.
Posey) that he was mistaken in euppo‘ing that the system to
be established by the bill eluted in Lincolnshire. (Hear,
hear.) What existed there was simply a custom between
landlord and tenant ; and that was a very different thing
from etparlismenteu7 enactment.
Mr. M'CULL&GII c sold not vote for the bill, becsuse
Ireland was included in its provisions. What was needed in
Ireland was so utterly different from that which seemed to
be desired in England that it seemed to him a mischievous
delusion to affect to deal with both in tens same bill.

Sir J. S fRICHLAND supported the amendment. This
was an attempt to interfere with priers property
to an extent which had never before been contemplated.

After a few words from Mr. PVSZT and Mr. Himmel% the
hone' eivided— . _ _

Mr. HENLEY thought some injustice had been done to
his hue. friend in the manner of eating the authority of the
notes commissioner. In truth the attack had reference to

the water meadows alone.
The house divided—
For the third reading

Mr. Mt:LUNGS wowed the following clause : .

And with the raw of preventing or leresenini the evils of the rinht
to embleenent 114 well as the loss and injury to tenants tending under
landlords having limited internist, be it enacted that where the lease
or tenancy in a farm held by a tenant at rah rent shall determine by

life, or for any other limited Interest, the tenant shall continue to
bold and occupy the farm until the expiration of the then current year,
and shall then quit upon the terms of hit lease and holding in the
same manner as if MC.. least or terrine's were then determined by
'Mallon of time or other lawful mean. miring the continuance of his
landlord's estate, and the suoceeding landord shall be entitled to re.
ewer and receive of the tenant, In the tame manner so Wm predates
sow sould have done If living, a fair proportion of the rent ter the
period which may have elapsed from the day of the death or owner of
the estate of such predecessor to the time of the tenant so quitting,
and the succeeding landlord and the teaant respectively shall, sal be-
Meru %brawls'," and as against each other, be entitled to all the
benefits and advantages, and be subject to the restrictions to which
the preceding lanlloid awl such tenant Tlepectively would have been
entitled and abject, In case the lase or tenancy had determined in
manner aforesaid, at the expiration of such current year.
Mr. PUSHY said that, as the clauss was lair in principle,
and in accordance with the general na'ur• of the bill, be
would not object to its introduction.
The elan.. was then agreed to, and added to the bill.
On the motion of Mr. MULLINOS, the following clams
was agreed to, and added to the bill:

Aud-rbe it enacted, that in can the glowing crops of the tenant of
any farm shall be erixtd and told by any sheriff or otner officer, by
virtue of any writ of fieri heir, or other writ of execution, *nth
crops shall nu long as the same shall remain upon the farm, be
liable to the r. at which may accrue and ben sue due to the landlord
after any such w tour, and sale, and to the remedies by distress and
otherwine for recovery of such rent, and that notwithrtandine any
bargain and rale or amignment which may bare been made or
executed of such crops by any such abed/ or other officer.
NIL 8. CRAWFORD theft moved that the went "Ire.

land " be omitted from the preamble of the bill. He was of
opinion that if the bill was applied to Ireland it would
place the rights of the landlord and people in jeopardy. He
could not support its third reading as regarded Ireland, as
it would clash with a bill on which he was about to test the
opinion of the hones.
Mr. T. M'CULLAGII seconded the motion.
Mr. HERBERT did not see how the bill if good for Eng-
land would not, as far u it went, be good for Ireland. He
thought it inconsistent in the boo. member for Dundalk to
vote for the third reading of the same bill last year and to
oppose it out this occasion. He hoped, therefore, that the
house would not allow the amendment of the hon. member
for Rochdale to pass.
Mr. M'CULLAGM said that Hit were necessary he could
point oat several clauses in the present bill which differed
widely from thosexontained in the bill of last year. But he
did not wish to rest thehindication of the altered course he
now deemed it his duty to pursue upset any nice distinction
between the tenour of the two bills. He supported the
amendment of his hon. friend (Mr. S. Crawford)
because the circumstances of the country had,
with reference to this question, greatly changed ; and
he must be allowed to add, beanne:the hope" and fun
with which his own mind had formerly been swayed with
regard to it, had undergone a very great alteration. Lest
year he owned that he was one of those who did not despair
of seeing a practical settlement of this most important pies-
tion attem-ted by the government. He had even chug to
the hope during the earlier part of the present session that
something effectual might be dons. Day after day, however,
had been suffered to pass, and the precious opportunity
bad been lost for adjusting the great controversy
that now rent society In Ireland, The best that could
be said of the bill was that in England it
would do no harm. But the people in Ireland
were not at the present moment in the humour
to be offered this miserable prescription of " spermaceti fur
an inward bruise." As for assimilation, he would say that
he believed a more hollow or absurd cant never had pre-
Tilled. It was not many hours shift they had been stunned
by a signal proof given in another plus that there was
no intention whatever, so far as the party opposite were
concerned, to yield any substantial right or franchise that
would tend to assimilate the liberties of the two na-
tions. (Cries of " Hear, hear.") And it ill became the
hon. member for Kerry, who by his vote in that house bad
encouraged others to commit the act to which he alluded, to
taunt others with a want of faith in the delosion celled assi-
milation. After suffering the session to pass without one
serious attempt to pass a substantial measure on the subject
for Ireland, he could not help thinking that the unmeaning
insertion of the name of that kingdom In a bill solely appli-
cable to England would be felt, by the majority of the Irish
people, as something very like an insult and a mockery.
(Hear, hear
Mr. STAFFORD supported the bill, and deprecated the
imam pursued by the hon. member for Dundalk. The
tenantry of Ireland would at least au that the hoe, member
for Kerry had endeavoured to gain something for them by
=imitating as much as pounds the law of England and
Ireland ; but the hon. member for Dundalk had protested
agaiset any uslallation, and, despairing of a large measure,
he bad refuted a small one.
Mr 0. (IRBY said that the (pinion was whether this bill
should be extended to Ireland, or whether that which the
committee had decided should be ravened ? He saw no
reason why this bill should sot be extended to Ireland. The
object of the bill was that persons having limited agreements
were to make thews biading on their successors. This was
for the bandit of tines parsons, because it would encourage
permanent Improvement. It was desirable to remove the
obstacles Which existed In Ireland as well as in England.
He hoped the object of the bill would be to lead to well con-
sidend amendment' between landlords and touch. There

In reply is a gaieties from Sir J. GIAZAK,
Lard J. RUSSELL said the dismission with regard to the
Exhibition would take place on Thunday before any other
business, and that the Reeledanieal Commission BiU would
be proceeded with on Monday next.
TENANT RIGHT (IRELAND)
The order of the day for the second ruling of the Tenant
Right (Ireland) Bill was postponed.
Mr. BRIGHT thought the government should fix an
early day for dimming the question. From all the informa-
tion which had reached him from Inland, he concluded
tha if the house did not early express some opinion on the
subject, it would be surrounded with much more difficulty
than it was at present; and partim connected wi'h Ireland
would hams immitted themselves by next session to all
sorts of impasible schemer.
The report on supplywae then brought up.
The Pirates' (Head Mosey) Repeal Bill, and the Sheriff
of Westmoreland Appointment passed through com-
