RELIGIOUS WORSHIP BILL.

The Earl of SHAFTESBURY moved the second
reading of this bill.

The Earl of CARNARVON hoped, as the bill was
net an important one, that the noble earl would post-
pone it till after Whitguntide.

noble earl as the bell involved an important principle.
The Earl of DERBY suggested that full opportunity
should be given to consiler the bill after it was in the
bands of their lordships in the amended form. The best
course would be for the bill to be committed pro forma,
and the!, recommitted after the recess.

The Earl of SHAFTESBURY acceded to this sug-
gestion.

Lord REDESDALE, the bill passed through committee
