ENING,

Mr. R. PALMER explained that the object was to relieve
persons of the Jewish persuasion from certain extraordinary
dislbilities under which they at present laboured. The Bill
had been introduced in the other House by Lord Lyndhurst,
of whose judgment no one could have any doubt. Under
these circumstances he must press the stage.
Mr. NEWDEGATE said that the present passing of the
Bill would intercept a trial now in progress in the courts of
law.. He should, therefore, move that the Bill be read a
third time on Friday next.
Mr. R. PALMER suggested that Monday should be sub-
stituted for Friday, which was agreed to, and the Bill post-
poned accordingly.
The Proteitaat Dissenters' Bill passed through Committee
pro forma.
The Public Health Act (1848) Amendment Bill was read
a second time. •

The Thames Embankment Bill passed through COmmittee.
The County Courts Further Extension Bill was read a
third Vine and. passed.
The Representative Peers for Scotland Act Amendment
Bill was read a second time. - •
ALAI-NO(ITH COLLEGE.

On the motion for the adjourned debate,
Mr. H. HERBERT moved that the House adjourn.
The gallery was cleared for a division, but none took place ;
and on returning, we found
Mr. S. HERBERT speaking. He pointed to the state
of the benches on the Opposition side (the Ministerial
benches being full, and the Opposition benches very
thinly occupied.) The absence of Members proved the
unexpectedness of this discussion, at least on the Oppo-
sition side, and at the same time • suggested the impro-
.priety of the Government consenting to allow any divi-
sion to be taken. Lord John Russell was absent, for in-
stance; yet that Noble Lord had an amendment on the
motion, proposing that a Commission should be appointed
instead of a Committee to conduct the inquiry; and, as it
was a farce to suppose that any Committee could sit that
session, of course Mr. Spooner meant to alter his motion.. so
that the vote should be, whether or not the management at
Maynooth was a fit subject for inquiry. With such benches
a division would be no test of the opinion of the House.
Mr. SPOONER should certainly take the division. He
had heard of no such amendment as that attributed to Lord
John Russell ; it was not on the paper. He himself could
not alter hie motion; he had no power. This question of ad-
journment was interjected. It was the wish on that (the
Government) tide to divide on the main question.=(An al-
tercation then took place between Mr. Spooner and Mr.
Mayan; Mr. Megan affirming that Mr. Spooner had stated,
early in the evening, in the lobby, that he would not bring
the question on that night, and Mr. Spooner insisting that
he had been entirely misunderstood.)
Mr. ELLIOTT said that this was a trap for the House.
Of course no one on the Opposition side had expected that
the division would take place that evening, and hence the
thinness of the benches.—(oh, oh.)
After a few words from Mr. NEWDEGATE and Mr. V.
SCULLY, who denied that he had ever spoken againit time,
and ,who taunted the Government with "not coming out." on
this occasion,
Admiral STEWART said that in voting for the adjourn-
ment, he did not wish to be understood as pronouncing any
opinion on the main question.
Mr. P. HOWARD did not think anything would be
gained by continuing the debate at so late au hour. He
never knew anything to be gained by an attempt to take
the House by surprise.
Mr. SCHOLEFIELD said that in the present state of the
House it would be impossible to take the real sense of the
House on the question.
Mr. HORSMAN wished to knew' the intentions of the
Government.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that if
the House did not agree to the adjournment, the Hon. and
Learned*Member for Cork would of course continue his
speech, and with every respect to the Hon. and Learned
Gentleman it was bis intention to go home when he began.
Sir B. HALL said he would certainly pair off with the
Right Hon. Gentleman rather than listen to the speech of
the Hoe. and Learned Member for Cork.—(Laughter.)
Mr. It PALMER said that he intended to vote for the
inquiry, though not on the ground put forward by the Hon.
Member (Mr. Spooner), hiut a division taken at that hour of
the night would not faithfully represent the opinions of the
House of Commons on the question.—( Hear.) He therefore
thought that the debate ought to be adjourned.
The House then divided, when there appeared—

Mr. MAGAN then moved the adjournment of the debate.
Mr. SCULLY protested' against the b
deate being then
continued, and recommended Mr. Spooner to withdraw his
motion.—(Laughter.)
Mr. SPOONER said he would not object to the adjourn-
ment of the debate, not wishing to put he House to incon-
venience.
After a conversation. in which Mr. Elliott, Sir J. Young,
Mr. Gladstone, Mr. Newdegate, and Mr. R. Palmer, took
part,
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER suggested
that they should then adjourn, and out of consideration to
the Speaker, meet this day at one o'clock.
The House then adjourned at Three o'clock.

SOUSE OF LORDS, June 14.
The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the Wool-
sack at Zve o'clock.
MAYNOOTIL •
The Earl of WINCHILSEA gave notice that in the
coursers& the next session of Parliament he would move
for a Committee to inquire whether the moral and reli-
gious principles inculcated at the College of Maynooth
are not subversive of all Protestant government.
Lord BROUGHAM said that the course propo3ed by
the Noble Earl was certainly-better and fairer thaw that
taken—he would not say where—but certainly not in
their Lordships' Houi.e.
The Doke of RICHMOND presented a petition from
the farmers of Sussex, complaining of the present mode
of assessing the property-tux.
