WAY.

Lord BEAUMONT rose to move the suspension of
the standing order, No. les, sect. 1, with regard to the
Great Western, Shrewsbury, and Birmingham Rail-
way, and Shrewsbury and Chester Railway Amal-
gamation Bill. This standing order, known by
the. name of the ", Wharneliffe order," was to the
effect that in the case of an Amalgamation Bill, the
Consent of four-fifths of the proprietors should be
obtained at-a meetinglield for that purpose. When first
created it bad required only the consent of three- fifths,
but within the last two years it had been extended to
fourfifths; In the case of the present Bill, which had
been passed by the Commons without opposition,
as being a Bill of the greatest importance, but when it
came to their Lordships' House, it not being denied that
four-fifths or the proprietors had not consented to it,
although three•fifths had, the Committee of Standing
Orders had no other course to report but that the stand-
ing orders had not been complied with. Ile thought
that this wee a case where their Lordships might, not
only without danger, but even with advantage, suspend
•this standing order, because this question, was
no -less than whether there should be only one
means of communication between London and
the Mersey, between London and Ireland—
whether all the traffic, and all the important transactions
`conducted between those two points of the kingdom
should be confined to one single means of communication,
and whethet the possessors of that means of communica-
tion should be the possessors of a monopoly.
Lord LYNDHURST said that this standing order was
made to protect the minority against the rage for specu-
lation among the majority, but it had never been in-
tended to stand in the way of any great public advan-
tage. He• believed that on the ground- of public policy,
and for the benefit of the public at large, their Lord-
ships were justified in complying with the motion of tile
Noble Lord.

Lord REDESDALE said that this was the first time any
attempt of this kind had been made to set aside this standing
order of their Lordships' House; and with all respect to the
Noble Lords who had preceded him, he must say they had
not shown such an acquaintance with the subject, and even
with the rules themselves, as justified them in recommending
to their Lordships the dispensing with the standing order. .
With respect to the question of the public interests involved,
his impression was, that if the amalgamation—the public
value of whiph seemed to be so much insisted upon—were
`effected, so far from there ensuing any competition between
the Great Western and the North-Western Companies, an
arrangement would be come to between them, the effect of
which would be to establish a complete monopoly. In the
Committee on Standing Orders the case of the petitioners
for the amalgamation broke down on their own evidence' -
and now they came before their Lordships asking that the
case should be tried on its merits—a course which their
Lordships, he thought, could not accede to. For unless they
'supported the standing orders of the House, they would open
a door to jobbery such as they would never close.
After a few words in explanation from Lord LYND-
HURST,
The Duke of RICHMOND, said they should not discuss
the merits of the Bill on the case for the Standing Orders
Committee. If they threw over the decision of the Standing
Orders Committee, they would never get persons to attend
that Committee all day, when they knew that their Lord-
ships could be so readily induced to set aside their decision,
founded though it was upon so useful a standing order as
this was.
Lord BEAUMONT said if they did not suspend the stand-
ing order on the, present occasion, the maintenance of that
jeopardy ; for it behoved them to see
standing order was in
that that order operated for the purpose for which it was in-
ititated, instead of acting as an obstruction to a jast decision
of an important case uis merits. He admitted that the
standing order had itsadvantages, and if their Lordships
agreed to his motion on the present occasion, he would always
advocate its not being lightly dispensed with.
Lord BROUGHAM felt a great repugnance to withdraw-
in any matter of a pirate nature from the Select Com- !
mitg tee to the decision of the House, for obvious reasons. He
did not say that a case had not been made out for departing
from that rule, but the proof must rest upon the
them to make that departure. They werecalled
ing upon
upon, on an allegation of a fraudulent proceeding in shares, to
susoendthe standing orders. That allegation, made on one
was denied on the other. Be wanted to know, then,
side,
had or bad not the Standing Orders Committee an opportu-
nity of exercising their judgment upon the truth or false-
hood of that allegation? He understood that the Committee
had had that opportunity, and that it had not thought
roe upon investigating the allegation, to report in favour
oft he justifiableness of suspending the standing order. If
that were so, he was against suspending it.
The Earl of ST. GERMANS said that the question to
*Wall the Noble and Learned Lord (Brougham) referred
was fully
.considered by the Committee, and they decided
that there was nothing 'shown to justify their recommending
that the standing order be dispensed with. He agreed that
the breaking down of the onopoly was desirable, but the
House had no right to Calf upon the shareholders to make
saerifice of their own interests for that purpose. Besides,
setting aside the standing orders would form a bad pre..cedent.
Lord BEAUMONT said the question to which the Noble
and Leareed Lord referred had come before the Committee,
and the evidence produced by the alleging party amounted
to this, that 15,466 voted altogether ; of those, 10,257 voted
for the amalgamation, and 5,209 were in the minority against
it; and of that minority 230 votes were traced to the
North-Western Railway Company; and the decision of the
Committee therefore was, that as only s3O votes out of
5,209 votes were traced or proved to be in accordance with
the allegation, they were not justified in recommending that
upon that allegation the standing orders shoull be dis-
pensed with.
Lord BROUGHAM - The answer of the Noble Lord was
perfectly fair, perfectly candid, and perfectly fatal to his own
(Lauhter.)
After a few words from Earl FORTESCUE,
The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said, that after the state-
, meat of the Noble and Learned Lord (Lyndhurst), as to the

power which the Noble and Learned Lord had referred to as
having been used by one of the great railway companies Ind
been exercised in this :instance or not, it nevertheless ap-
, peered that it was in the power of a great company to make
use of this standing order as an instrument not to ad-
vance their own legitimate interests, but to defeat the sub-
stantial interests of others, and of the public; and, there-
' fore, if their Lordships should decide that night that they
were not justified in going into the merit's, he trusted that no
long time would elapse before their Lordships reviewed this
standing order; for he believed that, in its present state, it
afforded a great temptation to powerful companies to enter
upon agreements with other companies for the purpose of
establishing monopolies.
Lord BROUGHAM having expressed a hope that his
Noble Friend would not divide the House,
The Motion was negatived without a division.
MINUTES OF COUNCIL ON EDUCATION.—MA-

On the motion that the order of the day be now read,
• The Marquis of LANSDOWNE, who spoke-very indis-
tinctly, was understood to say that he wished to set himself
right as to what had occurred on Friday night last in that

judging of the propriety of that change. He rested'iurbsent't --
authority of the minutes on their Lordships' table, as tioonsvhbet
he conceived to be a misrepresentation of what had occurred
under his cognizance, as the head of the Council, and he
, had adverted to it only for the purpose of setting himself
right.
The Earl of DERBY said, that after what had fallen from
the Noble Marquis, be was sure their Lordships would give
him an opportunity, for explanation.—(Hear, hear.)-` On
Friday night last he, had the honour of receiving a private
note from the Noble Marquis as to whether a minute had
been issued by the Committee of Privy Council, without,
however, intending to raise any discussion upon it. 'The
Noble Marquis did put the question, and he simply detailed
the circumstances, and it was with some surprise that he
received an expression of disapprobation, not with regard
to the substance of the minute, but to the mode and time of
laying it upon their Lordships' table. He was not prepared
for the charge that he had purposely abstained from laying
this minute on the table of either House of Parliament until
the vote had been obtained. The Noble Marquis went on to
state that no important alteration had ever been made by the
late Government until it had been submitted to Parliament
previous to asking for the vote. Indeed, he went further,
and stated that no alterations of any importance had been
made without first obtaining the sanction of Parliament.
Though the case of the Jewish schools would not afford him
a precedent of the sort, yet he was quite sure that in the de-
claration made by the Noble Marquis he was speaking in
error of the facts of the case. Recollect the charge, that it
had never been the practice to make alterations in the mi-
nutes of Council after obtaining a vote from Parliament.
The Noble Earl here proceeded to give in detailcertain alte-
rations of the minutes by the late Government, which nega-
tived, he contended, the assertion of the Noble Marquis.
The management clauses were riot laid before Parliament
when the vote was taken in the succeeding year. The ma-
nagement clauses passed after the vote was taken of the fol-
lowing year. He had stated cases in which alterations were
made after the vote was taken. and not laid before Parlia-
ment until the nest session. He hoped he had said enough
to show that Government had not acted without precedent,
at the same time he was not disposed to withdraw from the
cognisance of Parliament any of those proceedings. He was
not aware when he made the statement whether the vote
was taken. The object which induced the Government to
bring the measure forward, was that the National Society
was to meet the next day, and they thought they would be
generally satisfactory to all moderate Churchmen, and calcu-
lated to reconcile them on points upon which there had been a
great difference of opinion.

The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said he placed implicit
reliance on the statement made by the Noble Earl, and
begged to say there was no intention of imputing to him any
want of good faith. If the Noble Lord thought the altera-
tions made were in opposition to the pledges given to Parlia-
ment, he would have been justified in the observations he had
made, but the alterations made in the management clauses
were to carry out the principles upon which tho minutes wee
based. _ _

Lord CHICHESTER said the alteration had the effect of
more perfectly carrying out the principle of the clauses, and
in contravention of it.

The Bishop of OXFORD said the question was whether
an important alteration had been made before the vote was
taken. Now this important alteration was made when the
vote was brought forward. It was now said that this was
carrying out what had been determined on before.. The •al-
teration was that schools receiving aid should accept the
management clauses. He thought the Government made
important alterations after the vote was taken.
Lord LANSDOWNE said whet he asserted was that no
alteration in principle was made in what had been done.
SURRENDER OF CRIMINALS (CONVENTION. WITH

FRANCE) BILL.
Lord BROUGHAM rose for the purpose of imploring his
Noble Eriend opposite to re-consider the propriety, which he
strongly► urged upon him, of withdrawing the Extradition
Bill, on account of that which afforded him the best con-
ceivable opportunity for doing so—namely, the total change
which had taken place in the French law upon this very
subject of extradition since the convention with France was
entered into. • .
The Earl of MALMESBURY said it was not at all
necessary that he should keep their Lordships waiting for
the announcement which he should have felt it his duty to
make in the course of the evening, had his Noble Friend not
made the suggestion. He begged to say that he had come
down to the Howse with the intention of informing their
Lordships, at the proper moment, that her Majesty's Go-
vernment had thought fit to withdraw the Bill alluded to
for the present.— (Cheers.) But he could not make that an-
nouncement without stating that it would be extremely
dangerous at the present moment for the Government to
-continue the existing Act of Parliament under the new law
which had been passed in France. He could not yet under.
stand the full bearing of that law, but, as far as he did
understand it, it seemedtoorhiimminthelatinthaeoFyrepnacrth Goofvetrhne-
ment might reclaim any
world, whatever might be the nature of his offence, and
although that offence might not have been committed on
French ground.--(Hear, hear.)

The ar E 1 of MALMESBURY—And though he be not a

Lord BROUGHAM—Aye, an Englishman here in Lon-
don.—(Hear, hear, and sensation.)
CORRUPT PRACTICES AT ELECTIONS BILL.
The Marquis of LANSDOWNE moved that the House
go into Committee on this Bill. He said the practices which,
had taken place at St. Alban's were not confined to that
borough, and the present Bill had been brought forward to
extend to other boroughs, where corrupt practices prevailed

which the general character of the borough might be ascer-
tained, and if found-delinquent it would be disfranchised.
He believed that the measure would have the effect of taking
away one of the reproaches which, in the eyes of the people
of this and of other countries, attached to the Constitution
of this country, and that by timely and constitutional means.
That was the basis on which the measure was framed, and he
could hardly believe that the Government, or their Lord-
ships, would refuse to go into Committee, with the sincere
desire to accomplish an object so desirable.—(Hear.)
The Earl of DERBY said the object of the Bill which had
just been explained by the Noble Marquis was one which
he was sure would meet with the general concurrence of
their Lordships, as it had already met with the general con-
currence of the other House of Parliament. No one of their
Lordships could wish that the system of bribery and corrup-
tion which had of late years, he was sorry to say, largely
increased, should remain unchecked. It would even be ne-
cessary, for the repression of that system, that they should
consent to measures of a somewhat exceptional character,
and not legislate, as hitherto, upon individual cases, but by
which, under general powers Parliament might inquire into
the conduct of delinquent boroughs. But inasmuch as this
Bill was of an exceptionable character, as it established a new
tribunal, and invested it with extraordinary powers, they
were bound the more narrowly to scrutinize the nature of
these powers, the exigencies and circumstances under which
they were demanded, and the manner in which they
were to be applied. By the Bill the Commissioners
would he invested with the same powers as the Special Com-
missioners appointed to inquire into the boroughs of Sudbury
and St. Alban's. They would have power to call before
them all parties, and examine them upon oath; to require
the production of all papers and documents, and even, in the
case of parties who had hitherto been exempt, such as can-
didates, Members, solicitors, and agents, to call upon them
to give evidence which may criminate themselves, with
the view of taking ulterior proceedings for the die fran-
chisement of corrupt boroughs. These were extraordinary
powers, and opposed to the previous practice oneferePaahnrdaldiarembepeorenntt

In some cases they had declared treating to be proved in
cases where no one would say that any moral wrong what-
ever had been committed. He did not mean to palliate that
kind of corruption which was scarcely less injurious in its
consequences than the worst form of bribery, namely,
the drinking. which was a disgrace to so many elections
and to the country at large.— (Hear.) But in the case of
country voters who came half a dozen miles or more, and
who partook of the refreshment which lee would have had at
his own home unless engaged upon election business, he
could not consent to place bririery and treating on the same
footing, and believed that a grdve injustice would be done if
it were so.—(Hear, hear.) The amendment he should
therefore propose would be, that the consent of that House
should: be 'had to any address to the Crown for inquiry into
the case et delinquent boroughs; that counties, divisions of
counties, and the universities be omitted, and the Bill confined
to cities, towns, and boroughs ; that the Commissioners, in
order to prove that continuous bribery and corruption es-
sted,• should be. limited to the next previous election, with-
out the retrospective power proposed to be given in the Bill'
of taking any election they choose; and that treating should
not be put on the same footing as bribery, while every
thing ought to be hone to discourage and prevent it. In
proposing these amendments, he trusted it would not be
considered that he was actuated by any wish to impede the
progress 'or impair a measure which was intended to meet a
great evil. But the innovation on the powers of'one of the
three estates of the realm which it proposed wan, in his
opinion, such as they could not concur in, and the
wereeugges-
tioTns
justified by thereasons he had adduced to their
Lordships.—(War:)
The Duke
of ARGYLL flsught that the amendment to
exempt counties was not ode cf detail, but would alter the
whole priociple of the Bill. By making an exception of
counties a charge of corruption was implied against all other
constituencies. He did not see much force in the other al-
terations proposed; but he hoped that that with reference to
excepting counties would be reconsidered by the Govern-
ment, and that they would not press it.
The Earl of DERBY, in explanation, said he had merely
proposed to •restore the Bill to the state in which it had been

The Duke of NEWCASTLE wished that
, carefully at
had followel the usual practice and had given notice of 1241
amendments on the second reading. If it had been proposed
in the Bill to deprive their Lordships of any privileges they
possessed, he should have concurred with the Noble Earl
in his objections to it; on looking, however,
the terms of the Bill, he found that it proposed to confer no
new power on the House of Commons. Before any address
could be moved on the subject of bribery and corruption, a
Select Committee must have reported on the case. He felt
certain that, seeing what had occurred in Monmouth, no
Noble Lord in that House would wish to screen such corrupt
practices from the fullest investigation.

Lord BROUGHAM thanked his Noble Friend near him
(the Marquis of Lansdowne) for having redeemed his pledge
made in 1847. He (Lord Brougham) entirely approved of
this measure, with some slight exceptions. At the same
time it could not be denied that by this Bill they were
making a great change in the law, as well as a great alte-
ration in the position of witnesses. He thought the Noble
Lords who preceded him had not at all exaggerated the
object of this Bill. The effect of this Bill would be,
that for the first time witnesses could be compelled to
give testimony, whether these witnesses were principal
parties or accomplices, or neither, and to answer
all questions, produce all documents, papers, and books, as
well as all the written evidence, although the answer to such
questions and the production of these papers might have the
effect of criminating the party so interrogated—(Hear,
hear)—and the only protection given to these witnesses was,
that they might trust to the tribunal before which they were
sent to be thus searchingly examined, and which tribunal
would be empowered to give the party a certificate of in-
demnity against all civil and criminal proceedings.—(Hear,
hear.) In the event of the parties giving false testimony, they
were denounced by this Bill with all the terrible pains and
penalties attending corrupt and wilful perjury. Those horrid
and foul crimes of corruption and perjury—the commission of
which was so disgustingly and notoriously prevalent during
contested elections—alone influenced him (Lord Brougham)
in supporting a measure the object of which was to create so
novel and powerful a tribunal.—( Hear.) For his part he had
no objection that the inquiry should extend back to at least
the last seven years; but he regretted that the measure did
not embrace intimidation, which it was of the greatest im-
portance should not be overlooked.— (Hear, hear.) As to
treating, he did not see why it should not be regarded as
bribery, because it was a mere cover and shift to bribe voters
whilst in a state of bcaetly intoxication, as was well known
to all those who enjoyed the honour of carrying through

contested Llection.-I(Hear, hear.) He (Loid Brougham)
i remembered an instance, many years age, of the grossest
corruption in the way of treating. In one borough the ex-
peases were between 50,0001. and 60,0001. ostensibly for
beer; and when complained of, the answer made was, that
in a borough at the other side of the estuary the cost must
have been greater, as the tickets distributed there were for
wine instead of beer.—(Laughter.) It might be said, " why
will you seek to prevent men coming a distance getting
Be (Lord Brougham) replied that, unless
you etopped it altogether, and shut the door against it at
once, there was no other way to terminate the evil. He
doubted not. when it should be generally known that all
parties would be subjected to a most rigorous cross-exami-
nation—not alone as to whether they gave money, or to
whom they gave it, but as to their belief and very eupposi-
tiou on every matter connected with the election—the effect
would be to discourage and diminish those foul practices of
bribery and corruption ; because then it must be evident that
the characters of those who solicited the suffrages of any
constituency were certain to be at the mercy of their agents
and supporters.—(Hear, hear.)
The Earl of HARROWBY observed that, whilst support..
ing the measure, their Lordships should be careful how they
exalted into a conventional offence that which public opinion
did not stigmatise with reprobation.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said the towns and cities
had been found guilty of bribery, which, in fact, was the
reason for introducing this Bill ; but that was not the case
with regard to the counties and universities. Upon every
passed
der of ie..
principle of justice, comities and the universities ought to be
excluded. Their Lordehips did not usurp any privilege of
the Commons,_ because every investigation with regard to a
seat of that House must originate in the Commons. If their
Lordships allowed such large powers to this Commission,

e"I6nati°'INWORTH said he considered that legislation
Lord Cls
on this sebject would be a nullity if a Commissian were not'
ee lted to issue except on an address from both Houses.
Tie was of opinion that it would be far better to leave the
decision to the discretion of the Crown.— (Hear.)
Their Lordships then went into Committee.
The Earl of DERBY said he still thought the amendments
proposed would be beneficial. With respect to bribery
in counties and universities, this Bill would be a dead
letter; but the general object of the measure was dis-
franchisement. The amendment he had now to propose
was in the first clause, and it was to the effect that an ad.
dress to the Crown should be the address of both Houses,
and not of one.
Lord CAMPBELL feared that the amendment would ma.
teriallydamage the efficiency of the Bill.
Earl GREY expressed his astonishment at the amend-
ment now proposed, after.the Bill had been adopted by the
other House of Parliament, The object of the Bill was to
obviate the risk, which at the present moment piastically
existed, of a difference of opinion between the two Houses
as to whether inquiry should issue or not. If the amend-
ment were carried he thought it would be idle to proceed
with the Bill. The proposal appeared to him to be only an
indirect mode of getting rod of
the Bill
altogether.
The Earl of DERBY had been prepared to ascribe the
present measure to a conscientious desire to put down bribery
and corruption, but a new light had been thrown upon the
subject, when it was contended that the measure was framed
with the sole object of avoiding a conflict of opinion between

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY. TWO O'CLOCK.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were estimated
at from 3,000 to 4,000 bales, all to the trade. The market
closed steadily at about previous rates. The sales comprised
250 Pernam and Maranham at 6%d. to 6%d., 80 Bahia at
6%d. to 6/Bd., 300 Egyptian at 554 d. to 7%d., 400 Surat at
4d. to 4 120 Sea Island at 15. sd: to Is. 61,2 d., and the
remainder American.—Railway Shares were in good demand
at higher.prices.
The Brazilian mail brings 100,0001. in specie. The Coffee
market was very high. Exchange on London, 26%. In
imports the business was very moderate.
The BuenoaAyrean advices are interesting. The rate of
exchange on London was 655. 6d. per ounce. There was
not much increase in the stock of manufactured goods
.during April, but the activity noticed during March still
prevailed, and the wholesale stores were much relieved
in consequence. Daring the early part of the month
there was a brisk demand for the province of Sante Fe, and
there were likewise considerable parcels of goods sent to
Entrerios. The merchants, however, had experienced great
difficulty, because not placed on a par with the Monte
Videans, who were allowed a return of duties: and the de-
posit system, both favourable to sales for the interior
provinces. Just before these accounts left, how-
ever, the Government had met the difficulty by
a decree which grants the requisite immunities
and privileges. The accidental circumstances above enume-
rated as operating prejudicially upon trade, had been aggra-
vated by a further depreciation of the currency and conco-
mitant reaction in the exchange. In exports the stock of
bides was limited. Freights were still depressed, owing to
the number of vessels. Some had gone from Monte Video
to Patagonia to load with guano. The new Government
appears to have been giving satisfaction, and General Ur-
quiza was popular. His recognition of the independence of
Paraguay is an earnest of patriotism and pacific intentions.
The Amsterdam Stock Market on the 12th instant was
,buoyant. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. were 63%
Spanish American Securities were higher.
At Hamburgh last Friday the rate of exchange on London
was still 13 7. Stocks were without alteration, except
Spanish, which were in request. Discounts were rather
higher.
From St. Petersburgh, according to advices of the 7th
'June, the export business continued dull. Grain was quite
neglected. Of imports generally there were abundant sup-
plies and business was very dull.
The discount houses are overloaded with money and not at
all desirous to take in deposits even at 1 per cent.

The English and Australian Copper Company have also
received advices from Mr. Joseph Brown, dated Singapore,
the 17th April last, on which day he was to sail from that
port for Port Philip. It should be understood that this
gentleman, with a competent assayer, was sent out expressly
for the purpose of buying Gold for account of this company,
which, doubtless, they will_ be enabled to do at a very fair
rate of profit.
Advices have been received by the directorsof thethe Portilth
Philip and Colonial Gold Mining Company, dated
of April last ; they announce the departure from Singapore of
Evan Hopkins, Esq., and the staff of officers under his orders,
who would proceed direct to Port Philip to commence
operations.
