1 a the House of Loam., yesterday, the Marquis
of OLANILWAIIDM brOUkht up the report of the
select committee on the Land Tenure (Ireland)
and 'laid in the present state of public business it
would be useless to send the bill to the House of
Commons, and he would therefore withdraw it.
The Sale of Poisons and Pharmacy Act Amend-
ment Bill was reads second time.
The Poor Relief Bill passed through committee.
The Consecration of Churchyards Act (1807)
Amendment Bill was read a third time and
The Stockbrokers (Ireland) Bill passed t=suegili
committee. .

—....-.--.
The house Averted st 20 minutes to seven
o'clock.

7: the MrNe of Com NI,NA, Mr. DTSRAELT, in
reply to a question from Mr. Yorke, stated that he
intended atrictly to adhere to the scheme of redis-
tribution in the Scotch Reform Bill which he in-
troduced to the committee the other night, and
therefore only seven English boroughs would be
diafrancliiied, and they would be disfranchised
according to the population.
The Earl of M.tvo, replying to Mr. Murphy,
said the correspondence resi,ecting the granting of
a charter to a catholic university showed that the
conditions which the government had thought it
ne..ecaary to attach to the ',muting of a charter had
been iltaised by the prelates who were deputed to
le.t in the matter on the part of the catholic
hierarchy of Irele.nd, and under these cireum-
stances the matter was entirely at an end. ,1
The house then went into committee on the
S.:iitch Ref ,rao Bill, resuming the discussion at
chaise 9, which eract it three members shall be
given tot llasgoa.
Mr. (;i:aii.tu moved an amendment that
Glasgow be dividoel into three districts, each dis-
trict to return ore member to parliament. He
staid there wa.4 a :e'rong objvetion in Glasgow to
the adoption of the minority principle which had
been applied to the bug.. towns in England ; and,
moreover. the countitueney, if united, would be so
une.ieldy us t•o Lo timitatiageal4e.
Mr. I)t,i: tEli reminded the committee that if
they selopt-d this amendment they would be
going againat their del.:beetle decision of last year.
Mr. W. 1). ItA .reit said there was a strong feel-
ing against the minority principle in Scotland, and
the Secretary for Ireland hail already announced
that it was not intmtled to apply it to Dublin.
Mr. its rigai -:st. triangular represen-
tation and against tie minority principle, and
should therefore vote fur toe amendment. . .

Mr. I ; I. ‘I,sTON': shoti'..l prefer the proposal made
the government last year, that Glasgow should
he divided into two I:ear-nits, one on the north
and the other cut the south of the river. He de-
precated the extension of the minority principle,
and thought they might well try the expetiment of
del idler, Ilk city into i• districts.
Ar. .1. Lowther, Mr New‘kgate, Mr. Schreiber,
Mr. It. Hope, and Mr '. S. Mill addressed the
house in support of the minority principle, and
Mr. B. Osborne again. t it.
Mr. 111:iiiiir nnuinded tile committee that last
y..ar a majority of 141) rejected this minority
principle, but it was reins,,rted by the Lords, and
when the bill clone down from the House of
Lords, this house ivjected :dl the amendments the
L,rds had made t icept this, and this it agreed to
be,atise it was felt it would be a little severe upon
them to reject all, and would furnish them with
au t...:ciase for post:.oning the bill till next session.
TLe minority principle was most obnoxious to the
English towns it ;.ad beet, applied to, all of which
would prefer to hsse been left with two iiii;mbers,
rather than have a thirst with this principle ap-
plied, and he warned the committee against the
danger Of. I.Ntending it.
Colonel Love thought if the minority
principle WiLB not to be applied in boroughs, it
ought not to be a:plied in comities, and that they
ought not to app:y one principle to England an
another to Scott:tea.

Mr. Cann% Yu. said it app.,ared to him that the
dit ision of Glasgow was a fair mode of giving
eti,ct to the print.ple they adopted last year. He
thought a constituency of tai.oloo too large.
tin .1. Many and Mr. LIDDELL Opposed the
amendment.

Mr. DI,ICAELI said the rommption of Mr. Bright
was that this was a contest between the minority
principle and the ordinary mode of election, but
that was not the case. This was a new scheme,
and he thought the wisest course would be to
adhere to the principle whieli was arrived at last
year. . . .

Mr. Ho%slums said the division of a constituency
wm not a new principle. It was adopted in 1831,
the only differenco being that two members were
then giten to each ward instead of one, as pro-
posed now.
t;tiEv said he voted last year for what was
calks.' the minority prnnciph•, but all he had heard
aiiicv had satiafici. Mai that it was extremely oh-

On a di‘ision the amendment was negatived by
254 to 1/45.

A discussion then arose on the latter part of the
which relates to the boundaries of Glasgow.
Several members objected to the extension of the
boundaries which the bill provided for, and Mr.
Rot vExte moved an amendment that the city
shall comprise the places comprised within the
existing municipal and parliamentary boundaries ;
but on a division, the t ttttt thers being 112 for and
112 against, the chairman gave his casting vote
against the amendment.
On clause 10, Mr. ex moved an amend-
ment to give a second member to Aberdeen; but
atter considerable discussion it was withdrawn,
Mr. Cranfurd saying the proposition would be
brought forward again.
The Luau-Amoi vrr. moved to insert words con-
stituting certain towns into a district of burghs
to he called the Clyde district, and enacting that
the county of Selkirk and the county of Peebles
shall be united and return one member between
them, which was agreed to.
Mr. LAING moved to add words enacting that
the county of Sutherland he added to the adjoining
county of Ross and Crotnarty for the purpose of re-
turting jointly one member.

This proposition was debated at considerable
length, Nit-. CraiCurd, Mr. Bane, Mr. Cumming
limce, Sir Stirling Maxwell, Lord Elcho, and Mr.
M'Laren supporting it, while Lord A. Leveson
(lower, Mr. Homeric, and Mr. Disraeli opposed it.
Mr. GL.to.rusE also opposed it, saying he con-
sidered the principle of Icing governed in these
matters by the number of electors instead of the
amount of population was new and objectionable.
ni the motion of Mr. C. Harm, Caithness was
substituted for ]toss and Cromarty, and the corn-
Deities divided i.n the question that the amend-
ment as amended be agreed to, and it was nega-
tived by 195 to 103.

Another division took place on clause 12, which
enacts that certain comities shall be divided and
each return one member, to which Sir E. Cole-
brooke and several other members objected, but
it was carried by 206 to 141.

The remaining clauses of the bill were then gone
through, those relating to university elections
being postponed, and clause 51, which enacts that
in the event of a dissolution of parliament taking
place heron, the lst November the elections shall
take place as heretofore.
Further progress with the bill was then sus-
-I.i•cded.

- The house then went into committee of supply,
and 1,420,000/. wan voted on account of the civil
service estimates.

The West Indies Bill was read a third time and
passed.

Mr. Morrarr obtained leave to bring in a bill
to amend the Bankruptcy Act, 1861.
The house adjourned at half-pant one o'clock.

MINI:ULAN DgATII.—A young man named Robert
Townley, a clerk in the employ of the Lancaster Banking
Company, has lost his life at Lancaster under distressing
and very peculiar circumstances. It was part of his duty
to remain behind after closing time to fasten up the com-
pany's " strong room," which is in an underground part of
the premises. He was left in the bank for that purpose
on Tuesday afternoon, whilst the other clerks went to
dine. In the strong room, it appears, there is suspended
from the roof a trapeze, with which the junior clerks were
is the habit of amusing themselves in their leisure mo-
ments. The two iron rings by which the cross bar is sup-
ported are about tight feet from the pound. As Townley,
whose hat was hanging in its usual place in the office, was
not to be seen when wanted by the cashier on his return
from dinner, a search was made, and he was fonnd in the
strongroom banging by his neck from the trapeze and suite
dead. A long rope had been fastened to one of the rings,
and one end of it had been formed into a noose, and passed
around his neck. As deceased had frequently practised
on the trapeze in a variety of curious positions, the infer-
ence is that he was trying the experiment of supporting
himself by his chin, and that in swinging to and fro the
rope slipped against hie throat and strangled him before
be had an opportunity of seizing the loose end of the rope
and drawing himself up.
