was a smaller number of landed proprietors in Ireland,
in proportion to the area, than in any other country. In
Ireland with 32,000 square miles of land, there were only
8,000 proprietor,. In England there were 50,000 square
miles of land and 200,000 proprietors ; it was argued by
some that the smaller the number of proprietors the bet-
ter_was_the land managed so as to provide for the whole
of the population ; but the case was entirely different in
Ireland.

DWELLINGS FOR LABOURING CLASSES

(IRELAND) BILL.
Sir W. SOMERVILLE having moved that the house
should go into committee on this bill pro forma,
Mr. M'MA.HON said the bill bad a wrong title ; it
ought to be called "A. bill to facilitate the eviction of
the small cottier tenantry of Ireland." He thought it
was the duty of the Government to resist the further
progress of the bill which was intended to servo that
purponee.

- Sir G. GREY said it was useless to discuss the mea-
sure then, as its details were to be altered.
Mr. M'MAHON said he objected to the affording
any additional facilities for evictions, and moved, as an
amendment, tbat the hou,e go into committee on the
bill that day three months.
Colonel GRE VILLE seconded the amendment.
The SPEAKER said there appeared to be some mis-
apprehension in the minds of hon. members as to the
effect of committing a bill pro forma : that such a step
did not advance a bill a single stage. When it was
committed pro forma, it was ordered to be printed and
recommitted on a future day. When that day arrived,
the question was again put that "the Speaker do leave
the chair."
Mr. NAPIER thought that in courtesy to the right
hon. baronet the bill ought to be committed.
The amendment was then withdrawn.
The bill was committed pro forma, and ordered to be printed.

discretion, to continue such ln ease for the year next
