_ _ ......
Lord J. RI:SSELL—I stated that I would give notice to-
day of what wculd be the ou'etance and terms Lf the amend.
ments I shsuld propose r. spitting the Franchise Bill for
Ireland. The Isrds made two amendments especially, of
very lath.. importance. One of thtm requires that persons
claiming to vote for a county should be rated at 151 annually
instead of 8/. u proposed by the COMI:113111; and the other
ri quires tat a person enti.led to register should himself give
not:es of his wish to he so registered. Without going into

121. be substituted as the rating qualithation ; and with re
epee to the second. I intend to owes that this house should
disagree to the lords' amendments.

called the flowehoki Aarratirr of Cur•era Events, pub.
lished by Meters. Bradbury and Evans. The B card of &Hope
had come to the coneusion that that publication earns
under the deaunation of a newspaper, and a eommunicatin
was made to the publishers requiring them to submit to the
stamp regulations. A correspondence to* place, one
paragraph of which stated, on the put of Messrs. Bradbury
and Evans their wish to have the whole questi, n tried no
a special nee to bo submitted by arrangement. The
commissioners had etudes! to test arrangement, ac-
cepting the offer of a judicial decision, and a reference was
reqnested to the solicitor of the parties. Seeing that the
matter will thus to be submitted to judicial investigation, he
' trusted that his hon. friend would not prow his request.
