UNIPERIAL PARLIAMEN 1.

HOUSE OF COMMONS-(THIS DAY.)

The SPEAKER took the chair at 12 o'clock.
The Wadhurst and West Farleigh Roads Bill, and
the West Dcorowich Improvement Bill were read a
third time and passed.
The Keighley and Kendal Road Bill was considered,
and ordered to be read a third time.
PETITIONS.
Petitions were presented—by Mr. Hadfield, from a
Mininff Company in Derbyshire, complaining of a bill
now before' the house for levying fines on mines ; by Mr.
Deasey, several petitions from various places in Ireland
in favour of Tenant Right.
METROPOLIS LOCAL MANAGEMENT BILL.
The house then went into committee on this bill, re-
suming at clause 124, in continuation from the adjourned
discussion on 12th inst. ; this clause, as amended, was
ordered to stand part of the bill. .

-----
Cause 125 was postponed till Tuesday.
Clause 126, after some consideration, was agreed to.

On clause 127,

Sir B. HALL moved the insertion of a provision re-
lative to the powers of levying lighting, sewerage, and
general purposes rates, and the means by which. these
rates were to be administered.
Mr. HENLEY objected that the poorer classes would
suffer from the levying of these distinct rates as pro-
posed, inasmuch as these distinct processes of levying
and legal proceedings in default of payment would have
to be put in force, and would bear very heavily upon
them.

Mr. WILLIAMS defended the addition to the clause.
Sir 11. WILLOUGHBY •concurred in the remark
that the operation of these rates would be productive of
much grievance to the working classes.
Sir B. HALL thought the clause, as it originally
stood, would have met the views of the honourable
gentleman opposite (Slr, Henley), but he bad
felt bound to alter it in accordance with the
previously expressed wish of the house. At the same
time he thought the powers given to the district board
were such as could enable it to keep clear of the conse-
quences anticipated by the hon. gentleman.
Mr. HENLEY wished to avoid levying four rates,
involving four sets of expensed. What was done in
St. George's, Hanover-square, he should like to see car-
ried out in this instance.

After a few words from Mr. CHAMBERS, suggesting
that long amendments, such as that proposed by the
tight hon. baronet, should be given notice of,
Sir B. HALL, in reply, said it was quite impossible
to adopt this course, as amendments frequently were
only suggested as the bill proceeded. He also took
occasion to observe that the course he intended
to pursue was, if possible, to get through the bill as it
at present stood to-day, and after reporting the bill to
obtain leave to go into committee upon the other clauses
of which he had given notice, and which he had pro-
mised hon. members should have time to consider.

Sir W. CLAY said the Committee did not seem to be
aware of the bearing of the clause as it now stood.
Now, there could be little doubt but that its operation
would be very injurious to the elective franchise in
the metropolis. As he understood the matter, these rates
would be all comprehended in one, and collected with
the poor rate. As the law at present stood, all 101.
householders who had paid their poor sates before the
middle of January were entitled to a vote ; but if these
rates were associated with the poor rate, there could be
no question that many ratepayers would be unable to pay,
and consequently would be struck off the list. He
should therefore suggest that the poor rate should be
separated from the others.
After a few words from Mr. Henley, Sir J. Shelley,
Mr. Williams, and Captain Perry,
Sir B. HALL said a few words in reply and
The clause as amended was afterwards agreed to.
Clauses 128, and 129 were also ordered to stand part
of the bill.
