THE

works, also, the author had the power of authorising
any particular translation of his work. This also the
Noble Lord considered reasonable. But it went
further; an author might for five years prevent
any other person from translating his works, and
this the I Noble Lord considered to be a very dan-
gerous right. The Noble Lord also stated other reasons
which induced him to think that his Bill would extend
the power of copyright too far.
The Marquis ef NORMANBY stated that the object
of the Bill was to prevent pirated editions of English
works being circulated abroad. In a conversation which
the Noble Lord had held with Monsieur Galigsani
that gentleman had told him that in his opinion the
measure was a most excellent one, and deserved the
greatest support. The Noble Marquis was convinced
that the better part of English literature would receive a
degree-of protection that it had never received before.
Under those circumstances he should support the Bill.
Lord CRANWORTH considered that it was neces-
sary to consider both the advantages and disadvantages,
and consider which preponderated. He himself would
not offer any opposition to the Bill.
et After some further conversation the Bill passed
through Committee.
The Prevention of Sheep Disorders Bill and the
Exchequer Bills Bill were then read a third time.
Their Lordships adjourned a few minutes before Six
o'clock.

Market and Approaches Bill were considered and
agreed to.
The British Empire Mutual Life Assurance Com-
pany Bill was read a third time and passed.

Several petitions were presented against the grant to
May nooth.
Sir J. FILMER presented several petitions from
various places in Kent praying for the repeal of the hop
duties.
A number of petitions were presented praying for
the repeal cf the attorneys' certificate duty.
Mr. T. BARING presented a petition praying the
House to take steps to prevent the adulteration of

MILITIA BILL.

Mr. W. J. FOX Er.ve notice that in Committee he
should move the insertion of a clause in the Militia Bill,
to the cffEct that no man should be liable to compulsory
service in the nailitic,whoso name was not on the regis-

tration list as au elector tor some city, county, or
borough.

THE CAPE.

Mr. HUME wished to ask the Secretary for the Co-
lonies whether petitions had been received from the Cape
to her Mejesty for the removal of the Government Se-
cretary, Mr. IVlehtagu,
,on the ground of his continued
obstruction et the passage of the Constitution Ordi-
nances; and if so, whcther copies of such petitions would
be presented to the House?
Sir J. PAKINGTON said by the last mail several pe-
titio,:s were received, some in favour of the new consti-
tution, and others against it. One of the former was
signed by 400 or 500 persons, praying for the removal of
Mr.. Montagu, but he did rot think it would be wise to
prcduce it at present.
Mr. HLTME wished to know when they were to re-
ceive further accounts of the proceedings of the war?
Sir J. PAKINGTON said he could not answer that
question till the next mail arrived.
THE UNIVER►SITY COMMISSION.
Mr. HEYWOOD asked the Secretary of State for the
Home Departnient whether a report from the Commis-
sioners appointed to inqeire into the University and
Colleges of Oxford had teen received, and when he will
lay it on the table of the House?
Mr. WALPOLE said he had received the report of
the Oxford Commission, but he could not lay it on the
table until he received the permission of her Majesty to
do so.
QUEBEC AND MONTREAL RAILWAY.

In roply to Mr. COBDEN,
Sir J. 'FAKING TON said the late Government had
given no aisent whatever as to giving a guarantee to
this railway; but the subject was now in negotiation
and under the consideration of the Government. Before
any guarantee was given the opinion of Parliament
would be taken on it.
GENERAL ROSA. 9..

On the motion that the House at its rising do adjourn
until Monday next,
Mr. ROEBUCK called for the produo:ion of the
Treasury order issued to receive M. Roses, and to faci-
litate the passing of his effects and luggage through the
Custom-house, and asked questions respecting the con-
duct of the authorities at Plymouth upon the arrival of
M. Roses. The Honourable Member said General
Roses had been guilty of great atrocities in Mexico.
He was no friend to the people of this country or to
good !government, and he should to glad to know if it
was true that this Treasury warrant had been issued?
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said
this country had long been in negotiation with the
General, and her Majesty had made treaties with him, and
he had no hesitation in saying that the order was
sent down. It was a matter of form, and Government
had no desire to shrink from its responsibility. It did
not exempt the goods and chattels of the General from
the duties which the law imposed upon them, but
simply required. the Custom-house authorities ,to
extend to the General that consideration and courtesy
which was due to a nrson who had filled the exalted
station which the General had recently lost.—(Hear,
hear.) Any other indulgences which had been granted
to the General, the Government were not responsible for,
but they were quite willing to acknowledge the Treasury
order.—(Hear, hear.)
Mr. HUME said the Government had gone out of its
way in this matter, and he should be glad to know if the
Admiralty had sent out any orders._(Hear, hear.)
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said no
orders had been issued by the Admiralty, but the Go-
vernment entirely approved of all that had been done in
this matter.
